**Title: The Last Train**
The small station lay quiet under the moonlit sky, the chill of the night creeping into every corner. Emily stood on the platform, her breath forming clouds in the cold air. The town had long since fallen asleep, but she remained, clutching the worn suitcase that held everything she had left.
She had come here every night for the past year, waiting for a train that never arrived. But tonight felt different. The air was thick with an electric hum, and she could feel the weight of something impending.
As the clock struck midnight, a distant whistle echoed through the hills. Emily’s heart quickened. The sound grew louder, and soon, the gleam of the locomotive’s headlight pierced the darkness. The train, sleek and silver, glided into the station with an eerie silence.
The doors hissed open, revealing an empty carriage. Emily hesitated for only a moment before stepping aboard. The interior was luxurious, far beyond anything she had imagined, with plush seats and soft, golden lighting. She chose a seat by the window and gazed out as the train began to move.
The landscape outside blurred into a haze of shadows and light, a world slipping away. She didn’t know where the train was taking her, but she knew it was the journey she had been waiting for.
As the train picked up speed, a sense of peace washed over her. The burdens of her past began to dissolve, leaving only the promise of what lay ahead.
The last train had come, and Emily was finally on her way.
