"Now... I want you to relax.. and stay perfectly still.. be absolutely comfortable." murmured Rin.

"Should... I brace myself for a situation where I might NOT be relaxed?" I asked

"Well... there is the off chance you'll get hallucinations... frightening nightmarish hallucinations comparible to having Slenderman beat you with an electric guitar the size of Mars.. which was a hallucination I think I had when I tried this on myself to remember my answers to a test I was taking..  but... ahhhhhh you'll be fine."

"uhhhh.." I stammered, not sure if I should be weary or absolutely scared out of my mind.

We had managed to find ourselves onto a large cargo train in the subway area. So we managed to find our favorite cars.. sit in them, and settle up for a long journey west.. which luckily enough was where the train was heading... well.. Northwest to be exact.

And it was then that Rin decided to get started on my memory restoration.

"Listen.." I stammered. "M.. Maybe this can wait a little... when I'm feeling less afraid of hallucinations.

"OH! Is the King of Camelot a chicken?" said Rin.

"How dare you! I am a King! I will not falter!!"

"Ha.. falls for it every time.

"Wait what?!"

"NOTHING!" said Rin, from the back seat, leaning me back and putting her hands on my head. "Alright.. now just sit here.. relax.. and don't think.."

"The moment you tell me not to think I'm going to start thinking.." I muttered.

"WELL TRY NOT TO!!" Rin roared. 

"Well you're bossy." said Thalia, jumping into the shotgun seat next to me. 

"You sound like Shirou..that idiot.." muttered Rin as she got my head situated. "He wanted to be in here.. but he'd only distract me.."

"I'm in here.. ain't I distracting?" said Thalia, raising an eyebrow.

"He's more distracting than most people.." Rin muttered, blushing a little. "Damn you're so lucky King Gormandizer.."

"You call her that too!?" said Thalia with a laugh.

"Well who wouldn't!? She's a bottomless pit!"

I'm right here you know!" I said, feeling irritated. How much did people talk behind my back anyways?

Thalia sighed and looked out the window of the car at all the other cars sitting silently around. "Yo.. this gal's my friend too.. kay Rin? So ya better not accidentally make her.. like.. I don't know.. forget me.. or Annabeth or Grover.. kay?"

Rin looked at Thalia with a peculiar expression.. almost like a combination between curiosity and empathy.. though honestly I couldn't really see Rin's face from here that well.. so I'm just guessing.

"Want to give me a hand?" Asked Rin.

Thalia blinked a little, then nodded. "Alright.. but 's it okay if I put on some Blue Grass? Helps me think.."

"It anything like Miku Hatsune?"

"Don't know.. Never heard Miku Hatsune.."

"Oh jeez.. ha!" said Rin. "You have got some catching up to do Goth Girl! Alrighty then, don't turn it up too loud though I need to focus too.. "

Thalia turned on the cd player and put in something from her backpack..  the next thing I knew.. banjos were fiddling around, country singing began to blare, and Rin's face turned to horror..  "This is MUSIC!?"
