14. SEE - SACRIFICE

"Waah!!"

As he went over the sides of the train a hand reached out and grabbed him before he fell to his death.

Kay stammered put of fear, shock and worry.

"Um, huh, thank y--"

"Oh don't thank me yet. I want to have the chance to kill you myself!" A badly burned Captain Choo Choo with a blue flame burning him up raised h over the train's side. From the looks of it one could tell he was at heaven's gate--

One a literal note.

"You hit me with the burning hand, smart! But it's over for yo--"

Kay grunted as he struggled against his grip. "No, is um-- your loss! We win!"

"!!" Captain Choo Choo gasped in realization. "Don't tell me-- where is that darn girl?"

Sasha crouched down and aimed her hand in the shape of a gun at the engine room. Millions of white light started to converge at the tip of her finger, she put all she had into the shot further increasing the intensity of the attack.

Perhaps she had always wanted to uncover the shadows that lurked in the dark too...

Sasha stuck her tongue out of her mouth, shut one of her eye and uttered the words...

"BANG!"

A huge beam of light shot out like a laser be and engulfed the engine room in it's white light. A explosion followed blowing the head of the train to bits.

Losing the head of the train caused the train to speed on without any hope of stopping it. There was no way to control it but Sasha held a weak smile on her face.

She slipped and lied down on her sides heaving deep breaths, her hair blown over her face. She could not believe it.

"I-- I-- did it?" The words escaped her lips. "I exorcised a spirit? Uncle... If you were really right about spirits then you must be an actual exorcist."

She recalled the times when she made fun of her uncle and his work as an exorcist. Come to think of it she never actually acknowledged him or all he had done for her over the years.

"Darn it! I have really a naughty girl." She confessed to the wind.

THUNK!

"!" A loud thumping sound next to her head caused her eyes to spring open but due to the shape of her body she was unable to move even a finger.

"What have you done", cried the captain of the train as he stood over her with Kay struggling in his tight grip.

Sasha rolled her eyes and cursed under her breath. "How the heck are you not dead? Just cross over already."

"I will kill you both now!" He barked with rage seething through his body.

Sasha remarked. "Guess my blast wasn't enough." She looked at the arrays of stars in the sky as the train continued to rail on. "I kind of thought the train would go off the rails like in the movies."

The captain cries. "We'll hit the next station soon, there should be a train parked there. There we die with my love, it will be a fitting tribute."

Sasha sighed after failing to love her body ince more. "What a hassle. Sorry four eyes but this is still kind of your fault."

Kay grabbed the hand grasping his neck and said. "You can't do this, um Sir Ghost."--

"This train is your love and just because the link between you two is gone does not mean you should lose your reason to live and sacrifice yourself."--

"The train you so love is about to crash into another train, are you just going to stand around and watch it happen? To watch all your memories of happiness here die?!"--

"I don't care about me but save the train!"--

Sasha's eyes widened. "Hey stupid four eyes what are you saying?"

Kay's eyes sparked with youthful vigour.

"I don't know what love is but I envy those who can wake up and smile knowing that there is that one person, that one thing giving them warmth and joy."--

The captain and Sasha looked at him, they could feel the clear pain in his voice. The tears rolling down his face was evidence that he was speaking from his heart.

"?" Sasha felt something she had never felt before from the depths of her soul, something indescribable.

--"If love is the opposite of what I go through every day then I will gladly put my life on the line a million times over!!"

Sasha gasped. "!"
