Figment Reborn

Chapter 5 The Glass Train

"What is in that letter, boy!" Firrelol screamed at Rida. His face shook and rolled his eyes.

"I don't think you know how much that letter put you in danger by picking that letter off of your doorstep. That letter will open up to the gates of hell," His tone was like shards of glass, ripping through each word."If you follow me, we will survive through that portal,"

"Portal?" Zayn asked. His eyebrows almost soaring off his head.

"Yes, portal," Firrelol said. His head shook once with his scraggly hair's part being changed once more.

We heard another fist pounding on the door. It's sound ringing through the halls and up the stairs. Into the walls and under the floors.

"They are here," Harry said. His hand reaching to the handle of one of the cabinets in the kitchen. He flung open a small one and inside were many petite silver coins.

They were the medallions. But not just any, they were the ones that brought me here.

"Where are we going?" Louis asked, he went over to his chair to get his light jacket and tossed Zayn's jacket to him.

"Corurbe," Harry said, he took his medallion and tossed it in the air. We all linked hands and stepped into the film.

I grabbed Zayn's hand. It was dry and soft. Reassuring that we were going to be okay, Louis walked up behind me and slid his hand into mine.

With Adela, Harry, and Firrelol at the front and Niall, Liam, and Jane at the back; we went one by one into the film. If we let go of each others hands, we could have been lost in time forever.

I held on tight.

I opened my eyes. I was in a moving glass train with everybody surrounding me. Everybody was kneeling on the the floor of the train. I woke up on the ground of the train, the silver floor.

Rida's angular face was closest to mine, he held a hand to my face with a wet piece of cloth from the hem of his pants.

"Zayn, she is awake," Firrelol said, standing behind Rida. Liam stroked hair out of my face and placed my necklace into my hands, the butterfly trying to flit out of my nimble fingers.

"Be more careful about that," he smiled and walked away.

"We are almost in Corurbe, Ethel." Zayn said. He took the cloth out of Rida's hand and dabbed my forehead one last time before putting it back into its dirty bowl of water. The train jolted.

"We are here," Firrelol said," be very careful, we don't want anybody to know we are here, everybody knows who we are. Luckily for us, we have been out in the dirt and mess for a day now so we don't have to worry about blending in,"

As we walked out of the train my jaw went down. Everybody smiled and Louis walked up behind me and said," Welcome to Corurbe,"
