You were an outcast, at least according to society's bullshit standards.

You were always called the weird kid in school; no one wanted to date you because you were "different", and some of your family members wished you were normal. Why? Because you loved things like bugs, mythology, and the paranormal! Were you just nuerodivergent? Maybe, but that's something for future you to handle!

Anyway, when you heard of a train that would ride around the town for a few days, of course you were interested (you needed a break). So you purchased a ticket, packed a bag of essentials, and left your house.

Once at the train station, you noticed the people waiting for the train didn't seem human. Some had horns and wings, while some were just skeletons. But they wore regular human clothes. Maybe it was a costume party?

Before you could wrap your head around the situation, a train pulled up on the rails. It was crimson red with rusty iron wheels, steam emanating at the top, and parts made of pure human bone. The main door opens, revealing a skeleton dressed as a stereotypical conductor.

"All aboard!" He yelled loudly.
