Tickets Please

"Good Morning Passengers, today is day twenty five of the month of Bassoon." Waking up in their beds as always to the announcement passengers will feel a little strange. The hairs on the back of their necks are standing up. If they have any kind of danger sense it is going haywire. They have a moment before a second announcement shines some light on the strange feeling.

"Attention passengers, we have been boarded by inspectors. Please may all passengers have tickets and passes ready for inspection. Please try and stay calm." Calm may be harder for some than others. The feeling can be rationalised, it is similar to the air of expectation at the start of a horror film, or a scary ride. However rationalisation might not last that long as when characters try to leave their cabins they will find the doors are locked. They are trapped.

If anyone has lingered in the gaps between carriages for any length of time they will have no doubt heard the strange sound that can be heard sometimes, almost like faint choral singing. Now it can be heard in the carriages itself. Still faint, but if they are quiet they can hear it in the distance. Almost a cross between singing and crying. Sometimes loud, sometimes barely a murmur but ever present.

The feeling of danger intensifies, heavy footsteps sound outside in the corridors and a heavy breathing, as if coming from a mask. The footsteps move towards the first cabin of the first sleeper carriage and the door slides open...

Very casually, Dread folded his hands behind his head to watch the interplay. It helped make him look less threatening. The inspectors didn't seem to have the slightest concern about that, but why take chances?

The inspectors looked around the cabin, their gaze taking in Sarai and Dread as well as Conan now.

"Is all the information on your tickets correct?"

One of the inspectors began handing the tickets back to the three of them.

"It's all correct," Conan says sourly as he takes his ticket back. He doesn't bother to conceal the name this time, as there wasn't much of a point any more.

At this point he just wanted the inspectors to leave so he could deal with any fallout that came from this.

Dread offered a stoic nod.

That was how he rolled.

"Thank you all for your compliance." The tickets were handed back and the inspectors moved towards the door.

"We ask that you remain in your cabins until the inspection is complete and thank you for your continued patience."

Conan watches them go suspiciously as he clutches at his ticket.
