He walked with his life flashing before his eyes. It was all going to be over soon. He had so much left to do, So much to accomplish. He reached the end of the coach and painstakingly opened the door his gun first through the door. "IT'S JUST YOU AND ME, COME OUT!"

"Jones how many times do I have to tell you to not yell."

"It's over. You can't escape now"

"Oh, Peter you thought you could stop me from moving my stuff but little do you know my plan is different."

"Oh no, Sophia I know all you're plans and what you're going to do. We changed the path of the train. Now it's headed in a cliff" He said smiling

"You cunt," She said as she ran towards him, He fired but she dodged kicking the gun out of his hands. She kicked him again, He blocked it, throwing a punch and nailing her in the face. She fell backwards. He ran towards him but she stuck her heal in his foot making him fall and tumble, She got up, looked back and her jaw dropped. The seven minutes had ended. The train went barreling with no engineer or anyone on the train it was never halted to a stop. The track ended the ride became bumpy as the train continued on land. Both of them fell. The gun lay several feet from Peter. He tried crawling towards it but Mummy kicked it away BUMP... Mummy fell backwards as they train bounced. 

The cliff was very near. Mummy ran towards a window but Peter was already on his feet and he launched himself towards Mummy and tackled her to the ground. BUMP... and the train ran over the cliff it started falling. The door unhinged and fell directly towards Peter knocking him out cold.........

He found himself in a familiar dark hallway. He knew what it was. He ran towards the light turning around the corner. There it was. His mother lay on the floor not moving. "MOM!" Peter yelled and ran over and sat beside her. He sobbed harder than ever. She spoke something. He put his head a little closer to her and heard the words.

"You did the right thing," She said nodding a little, Peter put his hand on her hand and looked at her crying.

"Wake up honey!" she smiled and said

He jerked awake gasping for breath. The coach he was in was vertical. He lay there on a seat. He looked at himself his arm bleeding through the cloth he had tied. His foot and his stomach were both bleeding and his head hurt like hell. He had taken a bad fall. He put his hand on the top of the seat in front and climbed it groaning from the pain. All the while the train shook violently. He climbed to the top and reached the last seat he looked up to see that the coach he was in was hanging by a screw. And in front of his eyes, the screw popped out. With all his energy he jumped up grabbing a pole hanging from the train on the surface and the coach beneath him plummeted down. He was hanging from a yellow pole. He looked up. The pipe was wobbly. He looked to his side to see a railing. He swung the pipe and jumped grabbing the railing and the pipe he was earlier hanging by fell. 

He reached the top, put his hand on the ground and climbed up. His shirt completely drenched in his blood he stood with his hand on his stomach his hair flowing a little due to the wind. He looked up and Mummy stood there wounded but standing with her gun pointed at him. "It's over now Peter,"

Peter sighed "I guess this is it" he smiled a little to himself thinking what he had done. In his wildest dream, he never would have accomplished what he had just done, to try to save himself. Mummy walked closer to him and so close she put the gun to his forehead while he was bowed down a little because of pain. "It never had to be this way, you know..."

He looked up at her, "Nah, you're a psycho, It's way better this way," he said and smiled

Suddenly there was a loud bang and Mummy's face froze. He looked down and she bleeding through her shirt. Peter took this chance, He kicked at Mummy's shin, Grabbed her shoulders and pushed her off the cliff. She fell towards the earth with sadness and anguish in her eyes before she went out of sight. 

"Bitch," Mikayla said as she threw the revolver aside she had in her hand and ran up to Peter and hugged him. 

"If you ever pull something like this ever again I swear I will divorce your sorry ass so hard," she said laughing. Peter smiled faintly and Boom and Mario both looked at them. She let go of him and he dropped down to the ground. She reached her hand down to help him up "I'm..going to stay down for a while," he said still panting. They all sat near the cliff talking and laughing as the sun met the blue sea on the horizon. It had been a pretty long day.
