"In
The Arms Of An Angel"
Chapter 24
Escaping The Orient Express Again
The train steamed on ahead, Kyo and Haru running to the front, trying to stop the metal beast before it went over the cliff
"What started this thing off?" shouted Kyo to Haru
"Take a wild guess!" shouted Haru
"Yuki!" said Kyo
They ran through each carriage, each of the ones they had cleaned were spotless, the bedrooms, the compartments, the dining carriages, the lounge area, and the smokers' carriage
Out on the tender, steam poured over Kyo and Haru's heads, and rain pleted them. Something was at the engine, turning knobs and pushing buttons
"Who's that?" whispered Haru
"Don't have the slightest clue" whispered Kyo
They crept closer, but a pile of coal came toppling down on whoever was controlling the engine
"OW!" they screamed, as the coal blackened their grey robe
The hood fell off, revealing an orange jail suit, black elbow-length hair, hollow cheek bones and a stern voice
"YOU!" shouted Kyo "You're the reason!"
"Yes!" shouted Kyoko "I am the reason the Orient Ex-"
"You're the reason Yuki's haunting us!" he shouted, raising a fist
"Who's Yuki?" she asked, a puzzled look on her face
"The guy you murdered," said Kyo "Five and-a-half months ago? Remember?"
"I-I never killed anyone!" she shouted, getting up and brushing herself down
"Don't lie to us!" said Haru
"I'm not!" she shouted "The only person I murdered was-" and she slammed her hand to her mouth
"Carry on..." said Kyo
"I never murdered anyone!" she shouted, and tried to push herself past Kyo and Haru, who immediately stopped her and forced her back
"Tell us!" shouted Haru "Or I'll-"
"Or you'll what? Transform on me?" she said
Haru gasped "You know?"
"Of course I bloody know! I told you before didn't I?" she shouted, gettin up again
-On the other side of the train-
"Tohru! Tohru are you OK?" shouted Shigure through the door
"Help me! Please" she shouted back
"Yep, she's OK" said Shigure to Ha'ri
"I'll try the key!" said Ha'ri, forcing it into the lock
It clicked open and Tohru instantly fell to the ground
"Thank you!" she said, tempted to hug them, but never
"We still need to check... y'know," said Shigure "The bags..."
"We can't!" said Tohru "Didn't you hear the manager? The bridge up ahead is out..." she stopped, a look of realization on her face "Oh my god... I just realised something"
"What?" said Shigure
"...Yuki was trying to save me..."
