Seraphina eagerly hopped onto the train back "Home" and sat down and you could audibly hear Below sighing in relief as she started to already drift off, not even as the train was starting to move. The train started to move and in about 20 minutes they had arrived. Below woke Seraphina up by shouting at her jokingly. Seraphina woke up flustered and stepped out of the train. She walked out of the station and sighed in anxiousness, remembering that she'd killed 5000 of the people there. She started walking there but out of the blue, Below asked Seraphina, "Why are you so anxious?" Seraphina replied with, "Below... you might wanna absolutely kill me right now but," Below was suddenly interested. "I killed 5000 people" But surprisingly, Below replied with, "Uhm... Alright, you still sure you want to go to this... 'home'?" Seraphina replied shakily, "Yeah..." they continued walking in silence to the hatch, aka Seraphina's home. They finally got to the hatch and Below said, "This is your home?... well, I can't really talk..." Seraphina didn't say anything in reply to Below. As Seraphina's hand inched to the hatch handle, she started to remember all the lives she'd massacred. It was horrifying, I'm not going to say anymore. Seraphina opened the hatch and immediately a gust of smoke basically hit her in the stomach. She then realized something was terribly wrong. What had happened? Before she could think of anything to do with herself, She fell. The damage from the fall wasn't that bad. Gasping for air, she crawled in, but it was wetter than she anticipated so she slipped and fell once again. She gathered the strength to stand up and eventually did so. She cleared the smoke and dust out of her way and simultaneously walked through the bleak, uneven path. She came across a wall with spray paint saying, "Berry Stormrider must die!" She had no idea who Berry was, but she had the same surname as her, so that was... Berry... Suspicious. She didn't have any siblings or relatives who had the name Berry, that she could, at least remember. Suddenly a piece of paper, which was cut horizontally in half, flew into Seraphina's face saying "Berry Stormrider, dead or alive, 100,000 Dawn reward for her capture" She couldn't see who the picture of this, "Berry" was, so she decided to look for the other half of the paper, so if she found her, she could claim a joyful hunk of Dawn. unfortunately, though, it didn't look like any of the papers actually got to the surface. She didn't find the other half, but instead found another full version of the paper. She couldn't believe it. There was no way. It was her face in it! Seraphina... or Berry... was confused about why it was named Berry instead of Seraphina... But suddenly, luckily, maybe a bit unluckily, it all came back to her. Everything. She could remember the horrific screams of innocent people being controlled by the shroudens. The babies crying. The shrieking. The collapse of houses. She even felt like she could feel their heartbeat slowly dying, and gushing into pools of blood. Everything. She could clearly see herself taking those pills. Putting them in raspberries to make it more "moral" to herself. To forget everything. Purely everything, And even in the process, part of her. Her name... Her name... was Berry all along. She wanted to wake up Below because he drifted off as soon as... Berry... I need to get used to this... as soon as Berry entered the hatch. She tapped on her forehead which woke up Below. "Eh, Eh? Why'd you wake me?..." Berry told everything about what she remembered, earlier. "Your name is... Berry?" Berry nodded her head. "I- I just- Wow..." said Berry. She blankly dropped the piece of paper and walked away from the rubble, and to the hatch she came from. When climbing onto the ladder, she almost slipped once again. Berry propped herself back to the surface and started walking back. She still daydreams to herself about that moment when Below and herself were hopping on buildings back in VeloCity. Berry had made it to the train station and hurried onto the train just before it was about to leave, but she sort of felt an ominous presence when stepping onboard the train... Berry just brushed it off and sat down on the worn-out seat. A hologram, who was a human was sitting not too far from Berry's seat. He was sleeping upright and looked like a light sleeper. Berry just looked at him and stared off into the distance. The hologram suddenly jolted up awake, and immediately focused on Berry. Berry gazed back at the hologram, the train slightly pushing them side to side now and then. Just then, the hologram suddenly shouted, "It's- it's you!" Berry raised her eyebrows. "It's you! the one with 5000 kills!" The hologram perked up and struck a fist at Berry, but missed by a mile. Berry stood up and cautiously walked backwards, without saying a word. Suddenly the hologram made a robot hand, and then his body kind of... spewed out coins... maybe from a... video game? The robot hand looked like Berry's but more, let's say... more portable. The hologram charged up his robot hand and shot through the connecting train carriages, but luckily, Berry forced herself to the left, dodging the ray. The impact of the multiple train carriages being hit set off an alarm, stopping the train from going any further, and making the train slowly, very slowly come to a halt. Berry looked infuriated by the sound of the alarm and struck forcefully back at the hologram with her mechanical fist. The hologram flailed a little bit but got back into focus. The hologram instantaneously materialised a heavy-looking sniper rifle in his hands, and again, spewed out the eight-bit coins. He shuffled backwards and aimed at Berry, but unexpectedly, she leapt forward, grabbed the head of the rifle and swung it to the right of her while the hologram still holding on. The hologram was flung to the train doors, Then Berry grabbed onto his hair, and flung him in the opposite direction, stumbling him to the floor. Abruptly, Berry climbed on top of the hologram and started punching him frantically. The hologram's face was completely bruised, majorly injured and was bleeding reddish-blueish blood. The hologram looked like he couldn't say anymore. But hey, at least Berry defended herself I guess... Slowly, she'd realised what she had done, she didn't think about asking him anything, like why he was out to kill her. "Who are you? And why the frick were you trying to kill me?" The hologram winced and said, "I'm... Haze..." Berry steadied her eyes on Him. "And... I was trying to kill you because... I need to... get exp for... h̶i̴m̵" And 'Haze' died. Then Haze suddenly flashed out of existence. Berry gazed upwards for a moment but stood up fiercely. The train slowly came to a stop, but the train stopped, and instantly she knew she was screwed, and she couldn't go anywhere since she was in an underground station. But she could see a door exactly where the train entrance was, so she pulled the train doors open and looked at the black door. I think this was the origin of the same ominous feeling she had when she stepped onto the train. It felt like something was there. She hesitated a lot to open the door, but as soon as she opened it, she could see a gigantic spider with about 10 other large spiders surrounding it. She screamed as loud as she could and shut the door immediately, but the spiders already saw her. They scuffled along the floor, racing towards Berry, and she eventually shut the door violently fast. She immediately sprinted towards the front of the train, where the conductor once sat. She got to the control panel and she could see 2 levers on both sides of 2 seats on the train. "Hey! Below!" Below shifted and squelched around her forehead and said, "Wh... what?..." Then, Berry replied, "I need to get this train running! Now!" Berry yelled. "Oh... uhm... maybe pull those 2 levers on the left and right... I used to mess with trains sometimes but I don't really know..." Berry impulsively pulled the lever on the left as hard as she could but it didn't budge a bit. "Below! Could you help a little more?..." Berry uttered. "Hm... maybe... this could work... Berry, this might be a little painful for you... I'm going to come out of your head and into my... own form, alright?" Berry nodded in response. Below rapidly hopped out of Berry's head and pulled the lever on the right. Berry screamed in pain as she pulled the lever with her full force, and Below also pulled tightly as well, but looking a bit jaded. All of a sudden, the lever jolted backwards and the train was running again. Berry moaned with relief and Below quickly slithered into her forehead. Berry sat down on the conductor's seat and kicked her legs on the control panel since the train was running on auto. The train had finally arrived and Berry slowly walked out of the train doors. "Heh, Best ride ev-" But then suddenly, a spider came out from the train and leapt on top of Berry. The spider had totally overpowered her, but luckily, she learnt that trick in VeloCity that she used on Hi-Fi. Berry grabbed onto the spider's head and started controlling the electricity to her arms and instantaneously, the spider's head popped into green, gross-looking blood. She hastily got up and ran to the train to the ring of daylight. Berry saw the same human Once she got in, she felt an instant sense of security in that train. It was much nicer than the other train and much more... homely? She sat down on the comfy seat and the train gently moved along. They came to their long-awaited destination and Berry rushed out of the train and out of the underground station to see, in the far distance, a rainy, damp and surprisingly green environment with a cluster of small houses, almost like a small town. Berry fabricated a wide grin on her face and scampered towards...
