Join the Love Train

A/N: Because I could...  Because I could... Mwhahahahaha >XD

Kailynn's POV

"The conductor said we'll be arriving at the summit station soon," Steiner said walking towards the two girls. Neither of them answered "Prin... Ahem... Miss Silver? Miss Kailynn? They're sleeping..."

The cable car stopped with a bit of a jolt, knocking the girls awake just as the conductor called "Summit Station! Summit Station!"

Kailynn grumbled and popped her neck with a loud crack, making her two companions shiver. She watched as Sir Percival eyed her like he wanted to say something but kept his mouth shut and walked out onto the platform. Kailynn and the others following soon after, "Thank you very much," Silver bowed.

"Take care. You'll have to wait a while until the car to Alexandria arrives."

"How long will it be?"

"It arrives when this car returns to Bohden Station, so about as long as you just spent in the car. Why don't you go wait in the rest area up ahead?"

"Okay. What's wrong, Steiner?"

She saw him staring blankly into the distance before a huge grin spread across his face and whirled around, "P---Princess..."

"Hey, what did I say about---," she said swinging her hands to her hips.

"It's Alexandria! We're finally home!" he said gleefully, like a kid who was told he could have cake for dinner. They could tell that he was nearly excited enough to spin in a circle.

Kailynn loitered around for a moment, looking at the scenery when something caught her eye. Marcus fist-bumped Percival and they did a little secret looking handshake. Stealthily she snuck over to that end of the platform and listened to their conversation. "... To Treno. What about you?"

"Treno." She missed the next bit, Something about Blank? She wondered.

"Kailynn," she jumped and spun around to see the Princess. "We're getting more supplies." She silently cursed at Silver when she realized Percy noticed her and Marcus had gone inside.

She reluctantly followed them into the rest area and sauntered straight to the moogle, while the others did their thing, watching Percival out of the corner of her eye, Bored enough to stalk, she rolled her eyes, jumping when Nazna wailed, "I'm never gonna fall in love! It's just not worth it..."

She smirked, "Oh, I think it is..." She thought about what she'd say to Blank the next time she saw him. He promised to show her Lindblum but by then it could be destroyed. She chewed her lip when she remembered Nazna was talking to her.

"You're crazy! Kupo!"

"Maybe I am!"

Nazna shook her head and said, "I'll give you this in exchange for delivery!" she reached into her fur and pulled out a kupo nut. Kailynn just stared at it for a moment before accepting it, She just pulled that out of her fur... Are moogles like kangaroos? "I have a favor to ask, kupo! Will you give this letter to Mochos?"

"Sure."

"Thanks, kupo!"

Her eyes went to the door when she heard a commotion outside, Well look who's here... "I missed my ride!"

She smirked and stuck her head outside, "Someone's gonna get it!" she mocked.

"Hey!" Cinna looked stricken worry.
