The One Who Turned The Moon Red

Chapter 8~ The cold never bothered me anyway

"Everyone, please sit down in your seats unless your Ms. March 7th who attempts to stay standing every warp we do" Pom-pom the fluffy conductor announces in an annoyed voice

Stelle looks at March with a puzzled face
"Have you actually stayed standing before?"

"Hehe, not yet but-"

"BUT the first time you tried you ended up on the other side of the parlor car!" Pom-Pom shouts

"You fell right into Ms. Lucia and worst of all You put a dent in the wall! Guess who had to clean up your mess? ME"

"Hey I thought we were going to keep it a secret! Besides that's what I call determination"

"More like stupidity" Pom-Pom waddles off to the very next day, leaving a fuming March behind

Caelus was standing beside Welt watching this unfold, he was very confused.

"Are girls always like this?" He asked

"Uhhhh, I would prefer not to answer that" Welt responded feeling a shiver go down his spine

Stelle and March dive into a conversation about stars as Caelus and Welt talk about random stuff.

---------------------
"Attention, Attention! This is your conductor speaking, we will be making a warp in 10, 9, 8"

Stelle and Caelus sit beside each other and watch March chant 'i won't fall over' repeatedly. They close their eyes

The timer keeps ticking

Welt is sitting in his seat while Himeko was up front with Pom-Pom, helping him complete the jump

4!

Dan Heng is adding information to the Data Bank and Lucia is polishing her weapons while occasionally staring into the black void of space

1!

The train speeds up and then disappears into blue dust as if it was never there, in another galaxy a glowing blue train arrives and is forced to a stop
---------------------

This is not an abnormal thing but it was enough to generate cause for concern, Dan Heng walks towards the parlor to see what happened and Lucia follows close behind with her sword and polishing rag still scrubbing away.

The 2 enter the parlor car to find March laying on her stomach and Welt letting out a *sigh* as he pushes his glasses up.

Stelle and Caelus stare at March as she gets up from the floor with a couple of bruises

Himeko and Pom-Pom walk in from the control room.

"Hmmm about a 7 day layover" Pom-pom mumbles about something

Caelus chimes in
"What's going on?"

"Well it seems the path ahead of us is being blocked by something, think of it like train tracks that have abruptly ended for no apparent reason" Himeko explained

"Don't tell me the thing blocking the path is a Stelleron" March whines

"Unfortunately yes it is, we follow the nameless and part of that includes helping other worlds with Stellerons. Not only do they benefit from it but we also get too continue trailblazing"

After taking in all this information, Dan Heng speaks
"I'm assuming you want us to go down there and seal the Stelleron"

"Yep, you 5 can go to Jarilo-VI and have some bonding time while me and Welt stay on the express"

March reluctantly agrees
"I'm only saying yes because there might be something about my past here, but I kinda hope there isn't. Pretty girls aren't frost resistant after all"
