Away from Francis and his cries, Arthur made his way towards the nearest train station. People ran in and out of trains, talking and stopping to see where they had arrived. A black stream would always follow behind the train, either coming in or going out. Trying to find his way through the crowd a hand pulled Arthur out.
"Unhand me!" Arthur hissed pulling away his hand.
"Hey, easy down a bit." Another young boy said, he looked about Arthur's age. He had a cowlick that would never go down, and dirty raged clothes with a scare on his pale left cheek.
"Oh, its just you. What do you want?" Arthur asked, looking at him without any sort of worry.
"Don't you remember me? Alfred Jones! The h-
"The so-called-Hero, yes I remember. Don't remind me." Arthur interpreted Alfred, turning his glance to the trains.
Alfred waited before saying anything, "Y-Yeah, so how's it been buddy!?" He asked trying to stay cheerful.
"How do you think it's going? Oh yes Alfred, my friend, its going just wonderful! I'm having the best life ever, a dream come true!" Arthur said sarcastically, raising his voice not giving a damn if other people took notice.
"Arthur please calm down. I was just-
"Just nothing! How's your life going for you?! Tell me?!" Arthur demanded Alfred, backing him into a corner.
Alfred was dead in his tracks, not knowing what to say. His mouth worded words to come out, but no sound.
"Just as I thought." A glare froze into Alfred's eyes. Terrifying, those green once peaceful eyes changed into a dark maze.
Choo Choo! The trains yelled. Arthur turned his back, walking away without another word. Leaving Alfred fall to the ground, cold with tears.
"Ah, Arthur! Going to brother Scotland's place again?" One of the station staff asked, seeing Arthur board the train.
"Yes I am. Child are free to ride, Correct?" Arthur asked taking his seat in the far back of the train.
"W-Wel-
"Yes, child are free." Another staff member cut in before the first one could say an answer.
The two staff members walked away leaving Arthur to himself.
"What was that for?!" The first staff member asked, keeping their voice low.
"Don't you know who that was?! Arthur Kirkland!" The second staff member said, also refraining from speaking too loud.
"He's only a child though, why would he big such a big deal?" The first staff member asked, sustaining a confused look.
"He's from a rich family. So~ Basically, they can do whatever they want!" The second staff member said, breaking it down for the other staff member.
"But still. What can he do to us?" The first staff member asked, still wondering.
The second staff member did a face palm, "The little spoiled brat can report this train station and everyone working here."
"Meaning?"
"Meaning~ This train station could close down leaving us all without a job." The second staff member pointed out.
"Wait, so like the train station to the East?"
"Yes, the East Train Station closed down because of a slip up from a staff member. And so, because of the Kirkland's" The second staff member frowned.
"Oh..So the East Train station went down because of the Kirkland's. Why do they need so much money if their just going to be doing things like that. I guess all that money and power went to their heads." The first staff member looked to the ground, the second staff member just nodded.
