Chapter 6: Welcome to Louisiana
"Hey Jack Frost. Lincoln wake up." A voice talked to him through his dreams. With a annoyed moan, he shut his eyes open and was now facing the outside World through the Window of the Train. But then he noticed that it was still dark outside and he looked at his Phone and reads 3:17 am. He groaned and turns towards the person who woke him up and it was Winnie. "What the hell Winnie ? Have you ever looked at the Clock ?" He told her with a voice of annoyance and tiredness. "I'm sorry, but where here." The female Werewolf responded. The white-haired male yawned and noticed that Phantasma was gone and Sibella was fast sleeping next to him, or in better description she was cuddling on him with her head on his Laps. Lincoln blushed a bit, but then smiled and carefully removed her head and covered her with his Blanket and let her rest. Winnie who had seen the whole action, snickered a bit and wanted to ask him something, what she had in her mind the whole Trip along.
"Are you aware that she was sticking to you the whole Trip and sometimes looked at you ?" Winnie asked him. The fithteen year old Boy just shook his head and responded.
"No. Never thought of that." he responded and shrugged with his shoulders. Winnie just nods and snickered again. "You know, to be honest I never really payed attention in class but I heard, that when a Ghoul or in better words a Vampire looked at one person she likes or even loves, Their eyes were zinging or something like that and they're like in a Curse to stick to this person like two married people." The werewolf explained to him. Even it was not so understandable for a human, he kinda understands it and forced to gaze towards the purple skinned Vampire. after a while a question came up to his mind and he looked back to hairy red haired Wolf female.
"Say do you Ghouls always had those ... powers from the begin with like you, turning into a human when the full moon isn't here, or Sibella here turning into a bat ?"
"First of all, I'm not a that kinda of Horror movie Werewolf who turns into a human. Second we ghouls have to learn that to, like humans finding their Special Thing. For example Phantasma told me about this Trophy Case inside your House and she noticed that everyone except you got some Trophies, apart from the Best Brother Bronze Trophy." She explained, but then she quickly noticed the Boy's sad almost disappointed look on the floor. Winnie then could understand what she just told and she sighed and tried to comfort him.
"(Sigh) Look I'm sorry, Lincoln. I didn't want to hurt your feelings, I shouldn't have talk about-..."
"It's fine. You didn't know it."
"Look. Don't believe this Trophy Case. I know I just met you but since the begging I saw that you're a really kind, lovely person. I mean you're the first human who didn't tried to flee once we told you that we're real Ghouls. I never had met such a tolerant, big hearted guy like you. And I think that's you're Talent, Just be yourself and ... also stay cute like you look." Winnie explained to him with a wink for the last part. Lincoln couldn't help but blush and smile and thanked her for this such big compliment. "I think I got lucky to be with you guys, It's been a long time since someone said to me." He chuckled.
"Hehehe Yeah I think it is." The furry female responded with a chuckle back.
A few moment later Phantasma came back with some food she "got" from the Kitchen and stated them that their now stopping at their destination. Both Lincoln and Winnie nodded and the white-haired boy gently shook Sibella from her sleep and told her to be prepared to get off the Train. She then rubbed her eyes and responded in a half awaken tone.
"Next Stop: Hammond Station, Louisiana we thank you for the ride and have a nice spending in Louisiana" The female voice through the speaker told the Passengers.
The group of teens then got up from their Seats and headed out of the Cabin and went towards the doors to get off the Train and immediately catch a Taxi to ride towards their Destination: Mrs. Grimwoods Finishing School for Ghouls.
During their ride, Lincoln received a phone call and he checked on his ID and frowned. "Oh Shit." he mutters which got the attention of the girls who were sitting next to him, except for Phanty who was sitting on the passenger seat next to the driver (who thinks their just Teenagers who cosplayed for a Convention or something.) "What's wrong ?" Phanty asked and he showed the ID of the caller.
Lori
But then without hesitation he refused the call and puts his phone back in his Pocket and sighed. "I have no time for this right now." he said and leaned back on his Seat and gazed back out of the Windshield and noticed it's almost Evening again. He looked on the Radio Display and reads 7:47 pm.
"We're here." The cab driver told them and got a little confused about the location and asked them if this was really the place they asked. But before they could respond, Suddenly a Tree fell on the Car and scared everyone inside it. "OH OH MY GOD, IS EVERYONE OK ?" The driver asked them but again before answering his question, they felt that the Vehicle got lift up in the air and it seems like that the Tree is ... alive.
Every branch, every tweak was moving and and they seemed to try to grab each person inside of the Car. Then the car rolled on the roof and the driver fell out of one of the broken Windshield but before he could drop the ground, one branch catches him and then ripped him apart and threw both half upper and down side of the body away and then threw the Cab back to the ground which everyone landed hard to unconscious.
"Sibella"
"Lincoln"
CRASH
