Katya looked up behind her at Dane and glared, she wanted to tell him off, but she kept her mouth shut and shook her head. Maybe he'd see it this time and stop repeating questions she'd already answered
Thalia's urging would have been forgotten left unheard, if it hadn't been for the woman's insistence upon moving her around. Katya did the best she could to return to a seat. It felt like a thousand needles were piercing her skin and a fire so hot that it was almost cold. Katya longed for home, her bed and a good nights sleep, but that didn't look like it was going to happen anytime soon. The train was going nowhere, fast! Katya wanted to throw a tantrum like the child down the aisle from them, but her body hurt too much to move.
It took every ounce of Katya's strength to remain sitting upright. She couldn't imagine what she looked like. Her shattered wallet lay on the floor, parts of it were scorched. She whispered, mostly to herself, "I had signal."
But what could she really have done. They already knew the trains had stopped, they already knew where they were. But they didn't know something was down here with them? Katya couldn't begin to imagine what was down here. And every time she tried, the world grew dimmer.
Distracting herself wasn't going to work. Katya had to keep her thoughts on being alive.
