  • There are 3 on the train waiting to be charged, mega batteries
• Car 1
  • Hardlight projector guards appear
    • “Which company are you with?”
    • (secret which ones are on the train to prevent this situation. Could probably claim any of the 4 in rotation and then get a small jump on them)
      • Al: charlie
    • We’ve picked wrong, its not charlie lol, alpha bravo or delta

    • Al: awesome. That makes this easier
  • Richrag to almado “this will project poorly on the company”
  • Rat isnt undead but heals from harm
  • Dont like it, but its the best decision. If the bodies are found, they will shut down the entirety of the train until the killers are found. Could fake records of them not being on the train

    • Nivaya 2 eyes lock on them, stare up at the sky, thinking of memories
  • “Why do you resist?”

• Along the way, abt 6 hours, Voz Ricander asks “how long has she been like this?”
• “I know someone who could heal this sort of thing. She wont like us. And it wont help miku. Only at source, and only before 2 hours of affliction upon being frozen.”
