~1~ - The Phantom Express

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Oh. But yeah, I've heard about the competition. But what can I do? I get nervous around a lot of people..." He said in a sorta concerned tone, worried about the others more than he was himself.

"Hey." Hilda set her hands on his shoulders, "You're not too bad with the so called 'Jazz hands' thing. And plus that, you have more abilities!" She said happily with some bit of visible panic.

"Umm, Hilda..? How come you sounded a bit panicked once you said that?" Cagney said with a tilt of his head, seeming to notice the panic, "Oh... Have you ever heard about the new express that came in last week?" Hilda asked, "Uhh... No-... Wait.... Yes! Cala Maria told me." Cagney said.

"Good. It's called The Phantom Express." They both looked around after hearing a giggle, she sorta stood closer to Cagney, he had a Stern look on his face.

Everything was silent until Cagney (casually stabbed it) yelled something...

"Anyone here?!" Cagney said in a stern voice, not scared of what was gonna happen to him, but he was scared for Hilda. He was afraid something might happen to her.

A loud cackle of laughter flew at them from the distance. Then, a train engine. Horn whistling, wheels running, lastly, the whole train itself. It was big with a huge smile, anything anyfolk would be scared about.

But that wasn't Cagney, he was no quitter nor he was submissive, no no.... He wasn't any of that, as he had made a quick running start at the train.

Hilda saw the sudden action and immediately started chasing after him, failing to catch up. "CAGS!" She screamed, still not gaining his attention.

When she went to shout again, he had done made a jump into one of the train carts, the train still driving.

That was when the pilot huffed in annoyance and looked at her plane. Her only way to catch up was that.

~In The Express~

Cagney panted heavily in exhaustion. At least he got into the train, right? But when he looked around after sitting up, he knew he had company due to the furniture being cleaned, arranged in nice arrangements, and more.

Once the flower looked ahead of him, he saw a door, curious, he reached out for the valve, only for it to open before he reached it.

He suddenly met a angered face, a skeleton? No wonder why this was called The Phantom Express! There's a skeleton on board!

Without knowing, he backed off since that Skeleton looked like the conductor of the train.

"Scared of me, eh, flower?" The Skeleton asked in a scratched tone, yet he didn't sound friendly.

"No! You look like the conductor, so I'm trying to respect you-!" The spiked male spat out, he was now about two-four feet away from him now.

"Because I am the Conductor you idiot," the skeleton scolded, not sounding happy, "Hm... I'll let you talk to my assistant, seeing if he doesn't mind if you... Could stay." With that, the skeleton whistled.

Two headed creatures suddenly burst their heads through the door, snickering.

"Ugh... BLIND SPECTER!" The skeleton shouted, loud yet cracky voiced. And a bit mouthy sounded as well. (Child friendly book, fellons, not saying the other word. U^U)

Suddenly, a blue orb came from the ceiling, forming into a ghost that was upside down. "Yes, Mr. T-Bone?" He asked, looking at the Skelly.

T-Bone leaned against the wall, and gestured to the Carnation, who was in slight confusion. "This guy here managed to get on board just from running and jumping." The Conductor spoke, caring less for any possible injuries on Cagney, which he didn't have any.

"Who now?" The Specter asked, but was answered once he looked towards Cagney Carnation.

Looking back at the Phantom, he tilted his head, petals waning a bit.

(♪ His eyes! His hair! His derriere! It's crazy and yet, I don't care! And I swear one day I'll finally make him mine! ♪ I'm sorry I had to-)

The Specter was blue, no eyes (as in saying he's a cyclopes with no eye), a wavy tail and was translucent. Oh heck, he was cute!

Wait... What did Cagney just think for a moment? No, no... That doesn't sound right... A flower and a Ghost? Impossible!

The two suddenly started talking, introducing eachother to one another.

So... This Ghost was Blind Specter...

Seems like Cagney was gonna have to hold back his moves...
