After about an hour of walking we arrive at a bridge where the trains pass "Any of you guys know when the next train is due?" Vern asked, "We could go down to the Route 136 bridge." Chris responded, "What are you, crazy? That's five miles down the river, you walk five miles down the river, you gotta walk five back, that could take till dark. We cross here, we can get to the same place in ten minutes." Teddy says, "Yeah, but if a train comes, there's nowhere to go" Vern responded, "If the train comes we can run" i say, "Thomas right or you just jump" Teddy responds, "Teddy it's a hundred feet." Chris says, "Yeah, Teddy." Vern agreed with Chris, "Look, you guys can go around if you want to. I'm crossing here. And while you guys are dragging your candy asses halfway across the state.. I'll be waiting for you on the other side relaxing with my thoughts." Teddy says, "You use your left hand or the right hand for that?" Gordie asked, "You wish" Teddy responded. We start to walk at the bridge, Chris and Teddy are further ahead meanwhile I was with Gordie and Vern behind, suddenly Vern's comb fall from the bridge in the river, "I lost the comb" he says sad, "Forget it, Vern" Gordie responded, "You look good even without it for the TV" i respond, we continue to walk when I notice that Gordie was a bit behind and see the train coming "Train!" he screamed, "Oh, shit!" Vern says, i start running "Get up, Vern, damn it" i screamed, "Get up, move it!" Gordie screamed but when Vern gets up he fall, "Shit, Vern! Get up!" I screamed, "I don't want to. We're gonna fall" Vern is in tears, "We're gonna die, damn it! Get up" Gordie screamed, We run more faster than ever, Chris and Teddy arrived there but the me, Gordie and Vern still not, the train is almost hitting us when we jumped at last from the bridge end up in the ground still alive and coughing "That's not how I imagined my almost death" i say sarcastically, "Hey, at least we know when the next train as due." Chris responded smiling, I smirked.
