Alyssa had bought Kenny a nd herself a ticket for the railway. She was honestly tired of walking everywhere and this would be a certain way for them to get some rest and also for Alyssa to come clean to Kenny about what she had done. Taking a train car in the back that was uninhabited, she took a seat, allowing Kenny to sit beside her. Arcane jumped on the seat opposite of them and wagged his tail happily. Alyssa placed her hand on Kenny's thigh and swallowed the lump in her throat. She was sure if she wanted she could keep it from him and instead seduce him. She was sure they could have much fun in the back of the train, but her guilty conscious was eating away at her.

"Kenny, I need to tell you something." She sighed and took his hand in hers, tears welling up in her eyes. "Please do not hate me, but you heard about the murders right before we left right? They were broadcast all over the news and they could not get a lead on who did it?" She was making sure she was speaking low enough where it was impossible for anyone listening in to hear them. "Well, I went out that morning and got my new sword. The woman told me it was cursed, and I did not believe her. The moment I touched it, a powerful force ran through me and took hold of Lyss. She pushed her way out, taking hold if me and she was much more evil than I had ever felt her. It had to be the curse the woman had spoke of. We walked through the park and a child hit us with his stick, cutting us. And...I...I did it! I killed them! Well Lyss did!" She began bawling.

It was nice to take a train for once, Kenny put his pike and helm in the seats not too far from them. He was happy to be on the train and moving on from Oak with his loved ones, though Alyssa seemed like she was stressed about something. Kenny wasn’t one to prod about his lover’s personal affairs, but when she seemed distressed he couldn’t help but worry. The two had taken the back car, it was mostly empty which was good considering that it was a long train ride and they could probably use a quick pick me up before getting off the train. He sat next to her, happily throwing an arm around her shoulder and pulling her closer to him. It seemed like a good time to take a nap, so he yawned as the train began.

“Something to tell me?” he shifted his attention to her with a curious glance, “What is it dear?” he could see the tears in her eyes, was she breaking things off with him? Was there someone else? She spoke about the murders from before, and as she spoke he stifled a sigh of relief as he listened on. He nodded when she finished the question, he was curious about that sword of hers, but he had no clue it was evil. When she spoke about committing the murders Kenny’s arm seemed to fall limp as his eyes widened and his jaw dropped. She was the one who committed the murders? There was no way, it couldn’t be. Yes Lyss and threatened him, but would she go so far as to kill innocents? Kenny couldn’t move, he was paralysed with shock as his eyes widened and his mouth hung open. “Alyssa…” he only spoke her name as he felt his heart sink into his chest.

Eventually he would come to his senses, his mouth closed and he cleared his throat. “Alyssa, thank you for telling me this.” he nodded, he wasn’t sure what else to say, “It means a lot you’d come clean to me, it means we won’t hold anything from eachother.” his tone soon dropped into a casual one, “I am surprised that Lyss would kill innocent people but I do not hate you for it. I Told you I love you two and I meant it no matter what.”

His arm wrapped back around her and pulled her to him, he placed a soft kiss on her lips before gingerly caressing her shoulder allowing her to cry into his garb if she pleased. Whilst she registered his movements he would look out of the window behind her. If that sword really was evil, would it turn on him? "I love you and I always will no matter what happens." If it did it ultimately meant that she would be the one to put him down because he would never raise his hand to her.

Alyssa was extremely confused yet very happy that Kenny had not shunned her and jumped off the train in order to get away from her. She was a murderer, and she knew it. Though she felt remorse, the split simply chuckled in her mind. It did not feel bad about the events that she caused. The split wholeheartedly believed the woman deserved it. Along with her friend and their bratty kids. Then again, there was nothing Lyss was ashamed or afraid of. She was not going to get in trouble for it and she knew that. Being a Rune Knight for the longest, she knew that they had few members active enough in protecting the law that she could easily get away with it. For being their only branch of law enforcement, the Rune Knights had really let themselves go. Plus, amongst the ranks of those in the Rune Knights, Alyssa knew she could easily kill the only ones that would ever decide to come and try to arrest her.

Sighing, Alyssa found comfort in Kenny's arms, his kiss comforting her. "Thank you for not hating me. I did not know if I should tell you or not. The thought that i did something so...vile is eating away at me on the inside." She said. Soon, the train came to a stop, Alyssa sleepy eyed. "Alright we are here. We should probably find a place to stay, okay?" With that, they exited the train to embark upon their new journey.

Kenny was glad that she seemed glad about his choice, "I could never hate you, not in the slightest way." his words were true but he feared that it wasn't a mutual feeling. Though he was in love with both women he knew that both of them had the capability to end him, it was a fact that he also found comfort in. If he ever did something to deserve her blade he would be glad it was her and not anyone else. Scary thought, having your lover kill you... Welp, it beat having a green insect man kill you.
