i need something to write, so - introducing to you all, my latest work,
THE TRAIN FOR TROUBLED TEENAGERS.
==== WHAT IT IS.
*BEEP* *BEEP*
“YOU HAVE REACHED THE TICKET OFFICE.”
Nobody knows exactly how you reach it. Some have found it while calling their loved ones. Others have found it through calls from loved ones. Still others have found it through calls from strange numbers.
“WOULD YOU LIKE TO PURCHASE A TICKET?”
It’s rumored to lead to a strange utopian world. “The Train for Troubled Teenagers”, it was called. Most people who rode it never came back — but society would talk. There were strange rumors of “enlightened” individuals who had rode the Train, and were now happy and cheerful, cured of all physical and mental ailments.
“A ROUND-TRIP IS NOT GURANTEED.”
There was a girl once, who had an incurable disease. She was forever paralyzed, forced to stare up at a ceiling 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. One morning, her parents woke up to find the girl sitting by the window. She waved at them, a sweet smile on her face.
It was rumored she had rode the Train through the night.
“PLEASE STATE THE NUMBER OF TICKETS YOU WOULD LIKE TO PURCHASE.”
The Train for Troubled Teenagers was society’s biggest mystery. How could such a thing exist? So many people searched through so many places. Underground train tracks. Abandoned churches. The sites of the world’s greatest paradoxes. There was no answer to be found.
“ALL TRANSACTIONS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE AND WILL BE WITHDRAWN FROM YOUR BANK ACCOUNT.”
Some people wondered if the Train really existed. It certainly didn’t seem like it existed. How could it possibly exist? It was a paradox to everything. A cure-all couldn’t exist, explained the doctors. The Train was just a hallucination, said the scientists.
“WE HOPE YOU HAVE A GOOD TIME.”
The Train for Troubled Teenagers does exist.
How do I know?
I created it.
==== AUTHORS NOTES
this will be a collection of short stories in a novel form. this may discuss some heavier topics (all pg, fear not, admins) so please do be warned. nothing will be described graphically, but you may find this thread covered in a general grey cloud of sadness that dissipates upon touch.
please revise your cb name to something similar to a character's name - ex, how i use mizuki ariadne instead of th3mysticw0lf. you don't have to make it completely different - eg greenleaf to Green Leaf.
