Part 9
ALL ABOARD!
“Lewis, did you get the radio installed in their car?”
“Sure enough, Marion… You think you’ll really be able to get through to him like that?”
“Yeah, I think so.”
Rain interjects, “He’s pretty perceptive despite his young age, you know.”
“Yeah, she’s right,” Marion agrees. “Besides, it’s the only way we can really get to them when they’re not asleep… And we can’t take any chances.”
Lewis looks over from the window where he’s been watching like a hawk, “Uh, sir, the cat is in the train; I repeat, the cat is in the train.”
“Alright! Get her movin’!” Marion exclaims.
Lewis salutes Marion, “Right away!”, then puts on his train conductor’s hat and heads out to the train full of gathered animals. Animals of all kinds, the animals of the minds of the many who would be a part of building this new world, after the beast has completed its allotted time. Marion, Lewis, and Rain had been preparing for this since the day Razor had released the beast. Many were gathered, for it was well known that not all would make it in time, depending on many things, but mostly on the perception of their respective persons.
And so, Lewis makes the last call, the music begins, and he sings and dances while loading the train and closing the doors1:

Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay
Crazy, but that’s how it goes
Millions of people living as foes
Maybe it’s not too late
To learn how to love
And forget how to hateMental wounds not healing
Life’s a bitter shame
I’m goin’ off the rails on a crazy train
I’m goin’ off the rails on a crazy trainLet’s Go!
I’ve listened to preachers
I’ve listened to fools
I’ve watched all the dropouts
Who make their own rules
One person conditioned to rule and control
The media sells it and you live the roleMental wounds still screaming
Driving me insane
I’m goin’ off the rails on a crazy train
I’m goin’ off the rails on a crazy trainI know that things are going wrong for me
You’ve gotta listen to my words
YeahHeirs of a cold war
That’s what we’ve become
Inheriting troubles I’m mentally numb
Crazy, I just cannot bear
I’m living with something that just isn’t fairMental wounds not healing
Who and what’s to blame
I’m goin’ off the rails on a crazy train
I’m goin’ off the rails on a crazy train
