I wake up, feeling much better after I have slept a while. I realized I am snuggled up to Adrian. He's still peacefully sleeping. I look at his perfect face, his lightly red tinted lips, and his square jaw. His hair slightly hangs in his face barely touching his eyebrow. I feel the need to lightly brush his hair out of they way but I fight the urge.

I quietly get up and look out the small window. The sun is rising above the horizon, tinting the puffy white clouds pink. Golden wheat fields blow around in an ocean of waves.

"Beautiful isn't it?" Adrian's voice surprises me. I wonder how long he had been awake.

"Yes...it is... My parents never really traveled or anything so all I've really seen, has never been past the city limits."

"Well maybe we can make up for all that lost time."

I look at him and blush giddily. "Maybe."

Henrick begins to talk, "we need to start getting ready, so we need to disguise ourselves."

I nod and then take out the paint first. It's in a small little tube thing, and there's a makeshift paintbrush next to it. I begin to dot my skin with the paint. Trying not to breath through my nose because it smells some what repugnant.

I grab the contacts that are in some sort of wooden box with watery stuff in it and try to put them in in the reflection of the window. After a few minutes I'm able to get them in.

I go to look out the window then and the sight alarms me."guys, those are rain clouds." The water will wash away the paint.

Henrick comes up,"everyone needs to grab a hoodie just incase."

We nod and then I grab a maroon hoodie from the pile of lost and found cloths. It's slightly big on me but it will work.

I grab my black backpack putting my gun in it and throwing it over my back, then I pull the hood over my head so you can't really see my face.

"Ok, we can't get off when the train stops because it goes strait to the next town without turning to Spring Field and they check the running trains, so Kevin  has turned it off so it will eventually slow to a stop."

"How fast will the train be going?" I ask.

"Well, bye the time we jump off, it will be about 25 mile per hour."

I nod like it is normal information. But I know that one of us, or most of us could easily break something going that fast.

"Ok, it's about time to jump."

He opens up the doors for us to see the grass and things flying bye.

"When we jump we should be almost right next to the city limits."

I begin to see the city outskirts as we continue, almost as if they were on cue.

Adrian grabs my hand. As he looks in my eyes. Unexpectedly he leans in and kisses me, his soft pink lips lightly touch mine. Sparks fly up and down my spine, in a perfect moment way. I lean into him and wrap my arms around his neck as he holds my waist. His warm breath tastes like fresh mints, and his warmth cocoons me whole. For a moment the whole world melts away and it's just me and him. I wish I could freeze time and stay like this forever.

But then it all fades away as Henrick's cries interrupt this perfect moment, "now!"

We pull apart, feeling to soon and jump off the train, adrenaline pumps through my entire body, wind slapping our faces as we fly through the air for just a moment, hand in hand. Finally we land with a thud on the soft grass.

There's still one more person left. He goes to jump but then trips on his untied shoe. He flys face first into the ground and then tumbled under the train, blood painting the side of the train. My eyes widen as I gasp. As the train flys bye, you can see bits of his body smashed into the tracks. Cloth from his shirt flys in the wind as I see his decapitated head rolling down the track. Finally I manage to tear my eyes away from the site.

Soon Adrain gets up and helps me up. I brush off the dirt from my skinned knees and then we look at the city probably only 10 yards away. Here we come Chapman city.
