Train Appears In Sky Full Of Stars

You
You
Sorry, um...
Haku
Haku
Haku.
You
You
Haku... The train is about to leave.
Haku
Haku
Sure is..
I watched in confusion as the train pulled away from the station.
Haku was standing hands on his hips in front of an ice cream vending machine. I continued my interrogation.
You
You
Shouldn't we have gotten on if we're headed for Tokyo Bay...?
Haku
Haku
This way's faster, actually.

I lowered myself into a seat. The soft velvet was so comfortable I relaxed just a little in spite of myself.
The levers, switches, and dials peppered throughout the train car were reminiscent of an age gone by.
The warm wooden walls were lit by antique lamps hung from the ceiling.
The starry sky outside was visible through the windows.
You
You
It's beautiful...

The swaying bottlebrush tail disappeared into the driver's compartment.
A beat later, the steam whistle blew, and the train chugged forward.
Haku
Haku
That's the conductor. Don't worry- he doesn't bite.
You
You
The conductor is a cat...?
The train began to pick up speed, then entered a tunnel.
The roar of the engine fought against the darkness, stirring awake some of the anxiety I'd tried to lock away.
Haku
Haku
Most people'll never get to ride this train, you know. Why not make the most of it?
Haku
Haku
Look. We're nearly there.
At Haku's encouragement, I shifted my gaze out the window.
We emerged from the tunnel, and the inky blackness was replaced by warm sunlight.
An enormous building loomed outside the window.
The gothic exterior stood solemn and elegant against the blue sky. I felt like I'd stumbled into a fantasy world.

We will soon stop at Darkwick Academy.
Haku
Haku
This is us. Shall we?
You
You
We're there already?!
The Galaxy Express shuddered to a halt, having reached it's destination.
