【SCENES】 The Last Train

[starrystoryteller]

so you went and died

CW: Death, Afterlife, Discussions of Mortality

You wake to the sound of a train on tracks. The sound is quiet and the train's shaking is very faint, with only the occasional bump along the tracks. Opening your eyes, you find yourself sitting in an old fashioned train car. The seats and flooring are all made of wood. Outside of the window, you can see stars and galaxies sailing by. The interior of the car is completely empty and devoid of any other passengers. Looking around, you'll see that there isn't any luggage: Not even your own. Then, upon looking ahead again, you'll find that you are no longer alone.

A young girl sits in the seat opposite you. Her long white hair sparkles like starlight and her purple eyes seem to reflect galaxies. She slowly lifts her spacial gaze to meet your eye, smiling calmly as she says:

"I see... So you died?"

[Dazai rises from his seat as the train stops, adjusting his coat.]

I promise. You won't have to look after me for a while. [Then he turns towards the exit.] Thank you for your assistance, Conductor. I'll mind my health and keep this meeting in mind.

I'll see you...whenever fate decides to have us meet once more. [He waves behind him as he leaves, strolling back out to the city of Starsand.]
