"Hmm..." Faint tilted his head and flicked an ear at the very small gap between the seat and the wall of the car. His hands were definitely too large for such a tiny gap, being that he was a fairly large monster, but perhaps...
His long tail flicked out and made it through the gap with just a mild discomfort. It was hard to get it to move in juuust the right way, and fur was definitely not the ideal replacement for thumbs. If he could just get a little further into the gap...

Amrita failed to grab the item, but that was alright - there were too many people there, it was to be expected! But when she stepped back she noticed the distinct lack of people hanging back...well, one person in particular. Lizzy! In the excitement of the crazy Hunchback and the Reindeer and the Ghosts and Teachers she totally missed that Lizzy was on the train.
Looking hopeful at being saved by someone she knew to be mostly sane, the Vetala carefully made her way over to the pink haired spider demoness, crawling over this and that, ruined seats, luggage...until eventually, huffing and puffing, she reached her acquaintance-friend.
"Lizzy!" Amrita cried out almost breathlessly but in a rather relieved way. Deep down she knew there was a good chance the Demoness wouldn't remember her, but she was too shaken and startled from the attack to much care for her usual set of rules. "I hope they're okay too...and, uh, Are you okay?" She asked in a rather concerned voice; it was good she was still standing, but if she got hurt that would be terrible!

Although she was still slightly miffed that she wasn't able to help land the finishing blow she was blown over by this Professor quick dealings with the reindeer. Maybe this school did have some worthwhile teachers...cute too...well...acceptable. But like all the student the remnants of the reindeer did not escape her notice and now it was a free for all to see who could get it.
Being a ghost this should and would have been very easy, but alas some stupid idiot decided no natural abilities so like the rest of these smuts she had to do it the hard way, the fleshy way. Trying to look as inconspicuous and ladylike as she could she bent down on all four and tried to reach for the blasted thing....YES! she grabbed something, it was stuck fast but she wrestled with it for a moment trying to not let on that she had something in her hands. Pulling with all her 63lbs she retched it from its spot, falling backwards, elegantly mind you, on to her her side, the thing still tightly clasped in her fingers...."Dammit" It wasn't the illusive item she had hopped for...it was the carcase of a dead gnome, half covered in chewing gum...well what she hoped was chewing gum, and frozen in rigamortis...."Eww"

((I finally get lucky in a roll and Winston nearly died for it. Awesome.
Does Winston get to keep this necklace?))
Winston was pretty shocked after the whole ordeal. What had even happened anyway? Did it honestly matter? Not particularly. He was still alive, for the most part. And now with a fancy star trinket around his neck. His hands went to fidget with it as he stared at the counselor. Weak was perhaps an understatement. "Thank you," he mumbled, huddling down in his seat.
At the request for information though he didn't have much to offer. It was a giant ghost reindeer that had probably killed that gnome and then decided he was the next victim. "I threw a tennis ball at it," he chimed in with the other students throwing out tidbits of what had happened. When the students started reaching for a remnant of the evil deer, he stood on wobbling knees. Like a newborn deathcharger. Regardless, he'd nearly gotten killed by the damn thing, he wasn't about to leave empty handed. At least he had a fancy new necklace though. It seemed luck was against him though because he simply fell back into his seat. He wasn't going anywhere for a bit. His ears flattened and his tail pulled around his waist in smokey tendrils as he shoved his hands in his coat pockets.

She heard her name being called and instantly looked up, her eyes meeting with those of a familiar face. Immediately, the Demoness' face lit up as she smiled, feeling both relieved and excited to see someone she hadn't seen since the Student Council elections... Which, considering many more things had happened since then, was a really long time ago. She was not sure if she should hug the Undead despite really wanting to, hesitating before settling on holding her hands (as awkward as it was) instead.
"Amrita! I didn't realize we were in the same train cabin!" She laughed, feeling much more awake and energetic; while she did not participate in the "fight", it was still tiring just being there.
She blushed at the question before nodding slowly, "I'm fine, just a little worn out from the recent turn of events..." She paused before letting out a soft chuckle, recalling their first meeting in the school cafeteria. She smiled, gently letting go of Amrita's hands, "It seems like you always manage to cheer me up without consciously doing so, just by speaking to me."

When Ren leaned on the reaper's shoulders, Vaith nearly fell forward with the momentum of the train. But you could be sure, if he had, he would have purposefully pulled Ren down with him.
"Something shiny I guess." Vaith informed the other, shaking his head. Everyone was trying to get it at this point. Shiny objects really did attract a lot of attention. Red eyes stared up at Ren, tipping his head back. "You seem fairly calm. What, not bothered by the commotion?"
He glanced towards Kilometer who also seemed unfazed at the turn of recent events.

As Christof made his way back to his seat, he quietly mulled over the events. Where WERE they going, anyway? That seemed like an important question right now, especially with gnomes dying, and students getting the fear sucked out of them by ravenous skeletal reigndeer. Under his now fairly tenderized and mutilated extra hand, he found the now slightly sticky security card the old apparition had given him before the commotion. It definitely looked like some sort of key card... but what was Seafear? Was that like something involving a great underwater beast doing tricks? Or something about... seeing fear? His stomach suddenly tightened, was it a research facility? Maybe his Master would be there! He could plead with him to let him go home! Or... at least prove to him that he was doing a good job so far... Just because Christof didn't know about something didn't mean his Master didn't know all about it- his Master knew everything.
Still turning the card over in his hands, he went to rejoin Johan and Amrita, but it seemed the backwards-limbed girl had found another friend to talk to. Would she mind if he took the seat again? Perhaps it would be best to just sit anywhere that was empty.

"Check it out," The gnome, also known as Hotwire gnome, nudged his friend, smiling lecherously at all the students scooting downwards. Needless to say, they had a favourable vantage point. "Girly parts." "Dude, most of those people are guys." The other retorted. "... We never had this conversation ok." Hotwire gnome made a quit exit stage left. After all that squeezing and reaching and shovingIt seems Vaith finally emerged victorious with something in his hands. It gleamed it glistened and, oh, it was emitting a strange ghostly aura. That's fine... right? ((Congrats Random Artist on winning the first of THIRTEEN RARE ELITE REINDEER! There are still plenty of prizes and events left for the rest of the train ride, so rp, have fun, and hang tight!))

Ren shrugged. The train ride was now seeming to go on for quite a bit longer than he expected it to. Not only that, but it was a lot...noisier than he wanted it to be. There were students crammed into the tiny aisle, all of them scrabbling around on the floor, talking and jabbering excitedly with one another.
Ren really had no interest in all of the hubub. "'S'not like I haven't seen funny stuff happen before, he answered, somewhat boredly, as he continued to lean against Vaith, not bothering to get up. "'sides, we live in Halloweentown. The very definition of Halloweentown is commotion and chaos."
The reaper was now holding the shiny...thing...in his hands. Ren peered at it. 'S'pretty," he said, suppressing a yawn. "Whatcha gonna do with it now?"

Kilometer’s perfect at suddenly appearing when it was expected that he was absent. Was he alright? Why wouldn’t he be? Did something hap-oh right. The reigndeer. “I’ll be fine. I didn’t feel any of it.” He reassured with a nod. He may not have felt it but that doesn’t mean that he’s exactly ok.
Kilometer’s ears lightly bobbed once for a split second as the new student, who he heard to be named Basil, sat down next to LW. Having nothing to say to the new presence he just stared, before he felt eyes upon him.
He spotted someone from the corner of his eye; it was Vaith. He tilted his head slightly. Did Vaith possibly want something perhaps? He didn't look like he wanted anything.
Oh! It seemed he had successfully grabbed whatever the masses were after. Kilometer raised a thumbs up, “Good job, Vaith.” It seems one way or another people were acquiring more baggage then they came with. He thought about the card he had received, which was ironically being stored in his head.

"Thanks Kilomete." Vaith returned the thumbs up, the best he could, while under Ren. He stared at the christmas object, the bells.. felt rather strange in his hands. He stared at it, ringing it several times. At least, it rang normally. Huh. "I suppose you're right about the chaos and commotion." He made no effort to get out from under Ren, although his scowl deepened."Dunno. It is shiny though." He tucked it somewhere under his cape, the object ringing slightly as Vaith moved.
He tried to stand but under the weight of the other, he couldn't even lift himself and let the other male drop from his posture of using Vaith as the nearest chair.
"You tired of me using you as your armrest yet? I, for one, don't think I'd make a comfortable seat to nap on. Why don't you just get back to your seat and kick the chair like before?" It didn't matter whose chair as long as it wasn't Vaith's.

"Somehow Draven I don't think so. I don't think the other cars have been spared. I mean you heard that professor, right before he left. Something about the other cars likely being in trouble also..." He said shaking his head.
"I'm almost thinking I should have stayed behind...but I did make two new friends." He said this while beaming at the other, a bright and excited smile. Draven and Eracs were friends, though how close they would be after this he did not know. He hoped they'd have more to talk about in the future, aside from looking back on this event.

Jamais had been trying to get the shiny thing with her tail. Granted it wasn't quite long enough. She sighed looking curiously at Vaith, "Wonder what it is?" She questioned curiously.
She watched the gnomes as they left. "Dirty things." She muttered, "Wonder why they're lurking and not the teachers." Her arms were crossed before looking back towards the others.
Her tail flickered as she watched the rest of the crowd.

(Now I feel really bad about going on a trip right after this started. Oh well, at least I got here in time for the this part. ^^; If anyone wants to give Quarria a simplified run-down of events, it'd be much appreciated. ^^; ) There was a soft thud as Quarria's head finally slipped off her shoulder, onto her wing, and finally into the wall. Sleepily cracking her eyes open, the Amphithere caught the tail end of a conversation concerning...gnomes? Ugh, what a horrid topic to wake up on. Well, she hadn't meant to take such a long nap in any case, but that's what she got for sitting under some kind of heater. (It hadn't taken long to put her out like a light.) Her inner reptile just had to be appeased with such things as temperature, she mused in her thoughts.
Finally pulling herself to a full sitting position, her tail softly swishing back and forth with it's feather plume, the blue-skinned, blue-haired girl looked out at whatever sort of commotion she'd missed from her sleep. It seemed someone ( one they were calling Vaith?) had acquired some strange object. And it seemed everyone was already conversing and becoming good friends. Frowning at herself for napping, she realized she had probably missed most of the key opportunities to make conversations on this odd train ride (and to get a good look at some of the odd limbs students had here).
Looking to and fro from her seat, she near-nervously fluffed and settled her wing feathers a few times. The amphithere then also realized that she knew not what anyone's true form was here, which was a baffling question that her curiosity would later make her find the answer for, for a few students at least. Appearances could be so deceiving; after all, who would realize that this tall, blue-colored, winged girl was actually a monstrously huge legless dragon with enormous feathered wings?
In any case, Quarria simply sat for now with a calculating and somewhat open expression, her hands (oh, the joy of being able to claim she had hands and limbs now~) working to make sure she didn't look like too much of a mess, trying to piece together what she had missed by watching everyone she could see.

Eracs nodded. "I do hope they are okay. I mean, since we don't have FEAR, it was pretty difficult to pull off." The scarecrow shrugged when he couldn't reach the shiny thing. At least someone got it! "I wonder if they had reindeer or something else." Oh, like an evil penguin or something. How exciting that would be!!
He smiled back as well as one with a stitched mouth could. "I had no friends before today! Well, where I lived before people never came by ever..." Sheds didn't make good homes.
