"This way!" Heather yells.

The group was running along the Fun Zone's walls trying to get to the train station in the east.

"We need to warn the other survivors!" Chef said.

"I think they already got the gist about creatures running rampant!" Gwen exclaimed.

"No! They should also be warned of the coming forest fire!" Chef said.

"On it." Don says.

Don takes out a phone and contacts more survivors. Meanwhile, the group came across a horde of creatures blocking the entrance to the station.

"Ok, time to clear this out!" Chef said.

They begin firing at the horde. Dakota decided to join in by throwing nearby boulders at the horde. Once the horde was cleared they run up the stairs to the train platform. The subway like train was still there.

"Yes! The train's still here!" Heather said.

"Does it still work?" Gwen asks.

"I don't know, we better check the power first." Cody suggests.

"I'll come with." Don says.

Both Don and Cody go inside the station's control room to see if there's power and find some way to start up the train. That leaves Gwen, Heather, Chef, Sierra, Sam and Dakota on the platform waiting.

"Wait, shouldn't someone be guarding the entrance?" Sierra asks.

"Don't worry, me and Dakota will be guarding this platform." Sam suggests.

"Right!" Dakota says.

Both of them walked towards the entrance. Now, they just have to wait.

"Now that we have some breathing room, how about you tell me how you got your weapons." Chef asks.

"Well um… we met up with some AMS agents on Pahkitew, they gave us these things." Heather explains.

"Wait, you two met AMS agents?" Chef asks

"Well, yes." Gwen says.

"I was one years ago." Chef says.

"Called it." Heather smirks.

"Well, do you know who is up to this?" Chef asks.

"Well, someone named Thornheart, Scarlet from Pahkitew and Chris." Gwen says.

"Wait what!?" Everyone else who wasn't at Pahkitew exclaimed, Cody and Don stuck out their heads from the control room and Sam and Dakota looked back from their defence position.

"Why Chris?!" Chef asks.

"Well, we saw him at the mountain working with Thornheart." Heather says.

"But, I've never discovered any info of Chris working with someone named Thornheart!" Sierra exclaims.

"Well, either he just started working for Thornheart or he skillfully kept it a secret." Gwen suggested.

"Maybe his private times were something else after all." Chef said

Then the rest looked at him weirdly.

"What?" Chef asks.

"It's ready!" Cody says as he and Don got out of the control room.

"Okay! Sam! Dakota! Let's go!" Sierra yelled.

"Coming!" Sam yells.

All of them meet up at the entrance of the back carriage of the train. It automatically opens up and they walk in. The doors then close behind them.

"Now it's just a matter of time." Heather says. "Take a seat."

They're now on their way to another station that is, hopefully, closer to the survivors of Boney Island.

Suddenly a chainsaw blade appeared and cut off part of the train carriage.

"What the heck was that?!" Cody yells

Something then dropped into the train. It looks like a bluish humanoid with glowing red eyes. It has some armor plating on it's chest and it wields a giant double-sided chainsaw.

"Everyone! Move now!" Heather yells

Chef opens a door to another train carriage and leads everyone inside while Gwen takes out her PDA…

Empress

Type: 1210

Weakpoint: Head

"Let's get out of here!" Heather yells.

The creature then swung it's chainsaw around, sending in a train door at Gwen and Heather, trapping them in a corner.

"Ghhrnn! We're stuck!" Gwen yells.

Chef then turns toward them and pulls out the door from them and they run to the next car, meeting with the others.

"Run towards the front car, we'll hold it off!" Heather instructs.

They did exactly that, everyone ran towards the back leaving Gwen, Heather and Chef to deal with the creature.

The creature went through the door and walked towards them. They begin firing at the creature causing it to back down a bit. Once it looks weakened, they run towards the next car.

"This is really not how I wanted to spend this train ride!" Gwen yelled.

"This is too dangerous! We've got to back down some more!" Chef instructs.

Suddenly, one of the chainsaws went through the wall of the train.

"Ah crap!" Heather yells.

"Let's move!" Gwen instructs.

They are now moving to the fourth car. The Empress then cuts off the third carriage from the fourth. It then jumps back into the train now wielding both chainsaws on each hand.

It then charges again towards them and attempts to slice them but they manage to dodge it.

They then make their way to the final car, with the rest of the group with them. It then follows them into the car.

"Give it all you've got!" Chef yelled.

Then they begin firing non-stop at the creature which is then weakened fast. After lots of more shots, it fell to the ground defeated.

"Why can't we take a break!" Heather yells.

"This is our 8th super creature we've fought today!" Gwen says.

"Let's just take a breather for a moment." Sam says.

"Agreed." Everyone else said.
