After food, it was time to buy their train tickets. Michelle noticed that the queue was long and was in no mood to wait around. She left her luggage with Lacie and snuck up to the counter. “I’m so sorry... But my eighty-year-old grandma can’t stand for much longer. Could I get the tickets please?” she asked, batting her eyelids and pointing towards an old lady standing in the corner. The guy behind the counter believed her and gave her two tickets immediately. Michelle kept the act on until she was in his vicinity and then winked at Lacie, dangling the tickets in front of her.
Once they had everything, Michelle walked to the platform number written on the ticket and boarded the train to Orchidia. The long walk followed by the huge meal, made the assassin extremely sleepy. She fell asleep in less than a minute after settling into her seat and only woke up when they could see Nanuq town far off in the distance. “Sorry… It’s a lot more tiring than I thought,” she said, turning towards Lacie. The rest of the journey seemed uneventful with Michelle binging on some of the snacks she brought along and staring out through the window.
In a few more hours, the train pulled up at Orchidia station and it was time for the duo to depart. Lugging her luggage, Michelle got off the train and stretched her arms. “Long walk ahead. Should be great to burn all those calories I have been ingesting,” she said, grinning. With renewed energy, she dragged the luggage and headed towards the capitol.
