Passenger 95
Breaking news, there’s been a crash on the tracks. A crash of two trains and 96 deaths to be exact.
Two years has gone by and they had a remembrance party at the pub. Just a get together of friends with a few drinks and some grub.
Mike had been there just on the off chance, after passing through on his hitchhiking through France.
That’s where he met Alice. A beautiful girl. With big brown eyes, and blonde hair that curled.
It started off as just a drink, then it led to two. Then 4 months later they both said I love you.
They were in bed one night watching a documentary on the train that had crashed.
All snuggled up together after having a nice warm bath.
Alice seemed on edge and told Mike to turn it off now.
They disagreed about it and then they started to row.
Mike paused the tv, then Alice screamed so Mike turned around to see Alice on the screen!
She had been a passenger one of the 96 who died! So how the hell is she standing here still alive ?
Mikes mind told him to run but his body couldn’t move.
He opened his eyes and he’s the only one in the room.
He stayed up all night and put things to block the door way. He stayed like that for nearly 3 days.
Mike then decides he’s going to take a train home. He’s been on his own for years but never felt so alone.
He hops on the train and sees Alice there too!
He thinks
How could this be ? How is she still alive ?
And she whispers in his ear welcome aboard dead passenger 95
