A Simple Solider
Chapter One:
Train-Walking
It was a lonely day for a lonely woman like myself. I stood inside of the train station, waiting patiently for the train to come. Looking up at the train stations clock it was getting late into the evening and it's wasting precious time for me.
Sighing softly out of boredom, I looked helplessly at the train tracks. Why wont the train come? Please come... If you don't, I'll get in trouble and that's not my middle name. For it is Kagome... It's official. I'm insane. Talking to oneself isn't the most rational thing to do at a time like this. I'm on a business trip to meet some important people. This isn't the time to-
A whistle was heard in the distance.
A smile came to my lips in happiness. I looked up to the ceiling with my hands clenched together. "Thank you." A whisper came from my lips as the train soon came into sight in the far distance. Puffs of white smoke popping up as it came closer to the station. Thank you indeed!
Now, for my next mission... To find the nearest pay-phone.

I sighed once again but it was of content. I called in to my superiors to tell them my train ride was late and I'll be there later than I first thought. The day was beautiful with the valleys of greenery passing by. I've never get to sight see anymore so I'm taking my chance now.
I heard my seat creak slightly and looked up to find an elderly man sit next to me. It didn't really bother me, I'm kinda happy about the action actually. Being in civilian clothes, I look like everyone else. If I was in my military uniform, no one would even come in contact with me...
That's how hard it is when finding a boyfriend.
I huffed to myself. Am I that desperate for a boyfriend? I'm still young, pretty -even beautiful-, and smart woman. Damn my life sucks...
Just imagine a old woman still serving the country... Oh my Lord. I look bony and weak. What kind of future is that? I hope I die young, maybe when I'm forty...
"Are you alright missy?"
I looked up from my musing to find the elderly man looking towards the window instead of me. Raising an eyebrow at him, I didn't say anything at first but spoke. "Just thinking too hard for my own good. It happens."
He glanced at me and offered a smile. An unusual smile at that. It gave me a twisted feeling in my gut. Somethings not right here...
The old man must be wondering why I gave him a suspicious look. "I don't trust the elderly anymore. Not since King Bradley taken over the state." I jokingly answered him. He gave a smirk as if he knew something. Something that I didn't know about. Something was off about the elderly old man. He seems... Suspicious to me, more than usual anyway.
The conductor came into the cart and asked for tickets. Everyone showed theirs before leaving to the next cart. Ever since I entered the cart gotten tad empty except for the brave few who stayed along with the elderly man that sat next to me.
But, sooner than I thought, the elderly man stood up and left into the cart in front of us. He still had that creepy smirk on his face.
It's been silent ever since he left.

I was just sleeping when I heard a noise on top of the cart. It awoken me, but nobody else. I only shrugged it off before checking it out myself. I can do absolutely anything if I put my mind to it and that was the truth.
And I had a half-a-mind to go up on the roof to teach that mysterious person what-for. Matter of fact, I'll just do that.
Standing up, I whipped away dust off of my suit I was wearing (brown suit with a blue tie) before going straight to the door and opened it. I looked up and saw that the moon was out in its full phase. A tunnel soon passed over me and waited until it cleared and walked up onto the cart.
Nothing was there. I swore I heard a noise that woke me up. Maybe it was a tree branch that hit the cart... Looking around more closely, nothing was there still. I sighed and called it a night.
Walking back over the ladder, I clumsily slipped and yelped for help. I closed my eyes, expecting a painful death...
"Hey! You alright?!" A voice said...
A blacked out after that.
