Veritas reached for the controls...so tired....needed just enough...for one last shot...
"I never intended to hurt anyone...but the fool in red..got in my way..."
There!
He began to slowly drain the console, under the pretenses of helping himself up.
"I...experiments...you wouldn't understand..."

As I used the reserve energy of my NanoSuit, which then went to its Auto-recharge cycle, to use the *Strength* mode on the door, I heard the 4th guy.
*You don't want to threaten me, believe this... For the answers, ask the Fox, me I was just here to retreive... something... for a contract.*, and then I walked off the room, to the one Fox indicated me, my Laser Sword in plain sight...
That will surely keep the guards at bay, at least long enough, while my NanoSuit was recharging.

Pressure shrugged. At the very least he could track that one down later. The fox at the console seemed the most unstable of the lot despite his worn state. Pressure turned to the Inquisitor, "And what are you on about here then?"

Hork finally got out of the bathroom. The other passengers in his car were becoming increasingly alarmed at the excess vibration of the train, in addition to the fact the train was being hijacked. Hork didn't know any of this because he was stuck in the bathroom for quite some time because he ate an insufficiently-labelled dairy product and you know lizards and dairy.
There was some commotion going on in the car ahead, and from the murmurs of the other passengers, it sounded like this was some kind of hijacking.
"Highjacking?", he exclaimed to no one in particular.
Then he fell over himself to get to the net car up, tripping over other passengers while trying to remove the tight clothing items (since apparently some clothing items end up getting destroyed when he turns into Kaleidoscope)
He shut the door to the previous car behind him, then let the transformation take control, then opened the door to the next car with his claws and entered hastily.
The first thing he(it) saw was the laser sword.

OC : Miokalia, the train is taking speed again, since I deactivated the breaks and reactivated the speed... It's in my previous post
Only 30 seconds more, before the functions of my NanoSuit are recharged. It shouldn't be a problem at all, to retrieve the briefcase thing, since Train guards are... well ? Nothing more than Train guards, really...
I was only a car before the one ''Fox'' mentioned, ready take of any prob... Wow ?
Right in front of me, about half way through the next and last car, before the one I was interested in, was a creature of nightmare... or least, one for those not used with deep-space aliens races or demons, but still...
Whatever it was, I was sure it wouldn't be good for my interests or those of dear Sparky Fox, so...
*Who or what the hell are you supposed to be ? ...or have been ?*, sword still firmly in my hands, *In all cases, unless you have something against me or the speed of this Train, step aside now*. I was ready to go in *Shield* mode, as soon as I would be able...

Just..a few more minutes....and he would be home free.
The river. If he could get it to the river, then he would be safe...
If they were on time.
Finally on his feet, he looked at the second would-be hero. This was the one that was going to play hero? He didn't even look all that different...well, except for being some oddball foreign species.
"Who are you?"

The Inquisitor
Though I felt it coming for the last few minutes, I finally passed out from the injuries.
Another note to self: get equipment before trying to help people...

"Are you a highjacker? Right now it certainly seems as though you might be since you've indicated that you've turned off the brakes.", said the dracolich. He was hoping that the laser sword was the only issue here, but this individual appeared to be a well-funded professional and definitely not a rag-tag expendable terrorist, based on his equipment.
The dracolich continued: "I don't know what your mission is, but if it compromises the safety of the passengers of this train, then you and I are going to have a serious problem."
He was charging up, certain that this soldier had some unsavory intentions.

"Call me Pressure," he said while looking at the man in red. "I guess he's not planning on talking." Pressure shrugged and proceeded to push the break lever again and pulled down on the accelerator. He frowned. Something wasn't right. The train wasn't speeding up at least. But neither was it slowing down. "Well that's not good." Pressure quickly moved the break leaver back and forth. No change.
"Well, it seems someone shorted something out in there. We must be going over a hundred now." He thought quickly to the train route. Assuming they didn't run into another train first, there was likely to be some sharp turns at some point. He spotted that they were past his usual stop as well.
"Hey you!" he called to the fox on the floor. "How do we stop this?"

*I am no mere hijacker and I always try to prevent civilian casualties in my missions, if possible... I have no business with you and if you won't move then... I will make myself a way !*
Ah, just in time ! My NanoSuit functions were recharged and ready to use. Instead of going directly for the *Shield* mode, like I first planned, I decided to go for a more... original... approach, for this singular adversary.
As I switched to *Invisible* Mode, I started running toward his left side, hoping to make a jump for it, over the line of benches and then get him from behind.
As I jumped near him, I swear I felt something strange, a feeling I had before... The first time I went from a dimension to another one... That ''shifting'' feeling...
But before I could really tell, it was finish and I landed behind him, changing to *Power* Mode, as I wanted to give him a direct and unique incapacitating blow.
Taking my sword over my head, I made my slashing move.

The soldier disappeared.
an invisibility cloak., thought the dracolich, I'm not taking a chance with this. Got to make this isotropic.
Kaleidoscope then did his thing. The whole train car darkened, as though the higher frequencies of light were being absorbed, making things very orange and yellow.
"Chronomatic Perturbance", he didn't say out-loud because annunciating the attack is just an anime thing and he would look silly if he did it in his case.
This bought him some time. As the soldier sailed around him, still mostly invisible, the only indicator of his speed being the intereference pattern the laser sword produced in the field.
Carefully, Kaleidoscope took a step forward, turned around and backed up. Hoping he didn't accidentally run into that sword or the soldier. It was delicate work, to avoid the field. Since if he got stuck in it, then the whole effect would be rendered null.
The perturbance released and the soldier slashed at the door. Kaleidoscope didn't bother looking back, and made his way through the door going to the engine room as fast as he could.
"I sure hope there's somebody else here who can actually fight that guy. Because I don't know if I can", he said.

Pressure looked around. He was only just realizing he was still in his janitorial uniform. This must of looked very silly.
But it was time to act. The train wasn't going to respond to the controls anymore. But he hopped it would still respond to good old friction.
Pressure calmly laid down on the floor of the control room amongst the other two. And then began to increase his mass. He didn't know how high he could get it, but he hoped it would be enough to start slowing the train down. Very quickly he could hear the floor creek underneath him. He spread himself out as far as he could and hoped the floor wouldn't collapse before they had stopped.

OC : I will suppose that the *Slashing* move of my sword, which was aimed at his back... and not the door.... missed him because of the dark fog/effect thing and the steps forward... ?
In the end, as I went for the hit with my sword, I felt something I couldn't describe, a sudden black flash or at least what my mind could grasp of it, then nothing... My swing of the laser sword making a reddish line on the ground, as I missed my shot, the creature fleeing in the Engine Car direction.
*What's with those people ! Running from battle ? ...bah, I will see him soon enough, if he went where I think he's going. Now... that door, the guards behind it and the damn briefcase...*, I mumbled to myself, annoyed, loud enough to be heard by the nearby, terrified passengers.
First slash, second slash and a third slash, making my sign on the door, to break it with style ! 2 diagonal lines crossing and an horizontal line above the middle, making a triangle in its center.
The guards inside were panicking, obviously not used to that sort of entry. I went for the *Speed* mode, in order to knock unconscious the guards with the guard of my sword.
I was taking the briefcase, when the Train shook violently for a second, making me almost loose my balance.
*Why can't I ever do a mission, without any complications ? Is that too much to ask, by Ilmater or whatever !* and I decided to run in *Shield* mode, just in case...
