Hell Express: The Survival Games Chapter 21 - The Cakeland Kingdom
Corinne looked at the screen in front of her. There was a timer counting down toward the moment when she would have to press the confirm button or she could wait for the timer to reach zero and return to the train without pressing anything.“The-the mission is completed?” Mia said, rubbing her eyes.“We didn’t even find out who the real Eloise was, or seal the dragon,” Danny gasped in disbelief.“Well, the dragon is dead,” Quinn said, matter-of-factly.The mission stated that they needed to retrieve the lost wand and put the dragon to sleep. The information they received mentioned that the dragon was sealed by the royal pâtissier of the kingdom, the wand he used was lost.The royal pâtissier had an heir, which was Lady Eloise. When they arrived, they found out that there were two Elouises. This was where their minds tricked them.They thought that the two Elouises were something that the station set up to trick them, making them think that they needed to figure out who the real heir t

Corinne tapped on the traveller’s app and went through all the features in it. After they got back from the Cakeland Kingdom and completed the mission, both she and Claire had become full-fledged travellers.They finally had full access to the app. The forum was a place for all the travellers to socialize, there was even a tab in the forum for them to add other travellers as friends to engage in private conversation.When Corinne tapped on the shop, her eyes grew wide.There were so many things there, some were very odd, like this armor set.[Magical Rainbow Sparkles Armor Set - Have you ever dreamed of being a magical girl?

Ding![Mission: Get to the Willowdale Town inn before sundown.]Corinne wiped away the dust on the old wooden sign, trying to read the faded letters only to see that the words were still hardly distinguishable due to water and weather damage.It pointed in a certain direction, which normally would have guided travellers to a town. However, three short sentences had been carved into the bottom right corner of the sign in small letters; she would not have noticed them if she had not been examining the sign closely.Do not look back.Do not answer.Do not stop.As she finished reading what sounded like warnings, the fog had gotten heavier. Layers of mist writhed and churned around them as if they were not just fog, but something alive and malevolent. As if they were monsters slowly gaining on them, wanting to devour them and pull them deep into the abyss.

Both she and Claire became full-fledged travellers after they completed their mission at Cakeland Kingdom, which meaned they had finally gotten full access to the app.As soon as Corinne noticed that she could explore new functions that were previously unavailable,
Hell Express: The Survival Games Chapter 2 - The Lost Town
When Corinne opened her eyes, she found herself inside a mini-bus alone, Claire was nowhere to be found.Apart from herself, there were nine other people on the bus, including the driver.Corinne was sitting by herself with her belongings on the seat next to her. She found a bag of potato chips on her lap, and her hand was holding a cell phone with earphones attached. It was like she was on a field trip.Her eyes went over to the passengers on the bus; some of them were chatting and sharing snacks, whereas others were calmly observing their surroundings just like she was, then there were a few who were looking around in a panicked manner.Were they NPCs or travellers like her?Corinne proceeded to look out the window only to see that it was broad daylight outside. She noticed that there wasn’t any traffic on the road, the bus was the only vehicle driving down the path. She did not see any buildings either, only trees, endless trees like they were in the middle of a forest.Pulling her

It had been two and a half hours since they started walking down the forest path.Ace glanced at his watch, then at the travellers, as well as the NPCs.Abigail was now dragging her feet, supporting herself with a thick branch. She bit her lower lip, still looking pale with a layer of sweat shining on her forehead, but she did not complain or rely on the others, instead she stood strong and continued to walk.When Ace’s eyes landed on the thick branch, his eyes twitched and swept over to a young girl who was playing with another branch in her hands. In under thirty minutes, nearly all the NPCs had branches that were being used as canes. This was the work of the brunette traveller -- Corinne.He wasn’t aware that Corinne had the strength of Hercules. When she noticed that they were tired, her went over to the trees that lined both sides of the path to retrieve the branches. Apart from Corinne and John who barely broke a sweat, most of the people in the group were tired. What surprised

As soon as they stepped foot into the territory of the town, a familiar sound rang in their head, and a screen flashed into existence.Ding![Station: Willowdale TownMission: Put Willowdale Town back on the map.Countdown: 5 days]The travellers paused, exchanging glances with one another. Corinne raised a brow, unlike the Cakeland Kingdom which gave a brief description and background of the station and what was going on, all she got this time was the name of the station and a basic mission -- which only made her all the more confused.She looked at the others, seeing that they were just as confused as she was. Well, except for John, who had been carrying a carefree expression on his face ever since they got here.Corinne directed her attention to her surroundings and began to observe the town.The winding streets were empty, and the scattered houses seemed very strange and out of place to her. The wind could easily be heard, given the lack of people, and the breeze screamed for cov

Ace and John walked through the streets to the mayor’s office. Unlike the previous night where it seemed like the inn was in a separate dimension of its own and the world outside was in complete darkness, they could walk outside now at the very least, even though the streets were still empty.As they neared the gate of the office, Ace sped up, ready to scale the fences when unexpectedly, the gate yawned open like an ancient mouth. Unnatural shadows swirled in the air as if waiting for them.Both Ace and John exchanged a glance before they moved towards the gate, embracing the mysterious darkness beyond.Ace jolted to a stop, raising his arm in a swift motion to halt John’s progress. “What’s wrong?” John exclaimed, shock written all over his face as his eyes locked onto the flickering red light emitting from Ace’s watch.Tension filled Ace’s features as he stared at the alert from his watch, warning him of the lurking dangers behind the gates.Without uttering a word, Ace gave John a

Claire’s eyes landed on Danny as a thought slowly formed in her mind. Danny could feel her intense stare.Danny gulped, “Why are you looking at me like that?”A smile crept up Claire’s face and the next thing Danny felt was a force pulling him back. He looked over his shoulder and saw Claire tugging on his straw strap. The tugging turned into a full on pull and in a flash, his feet were off the ground.Before Danny could ask what was going on, Claire swung him in the air like a fan and propelled him towards the truck like a human slingshot, or chick slingshot in their present condition.Danny flapped his underdeveloped wings as he soared through the air, and in a few seconds, he dropped to the ground with a splat, still a distance away from the truck.Claire couldn’t believe it, was this expectation vs reality? She expected Danny would have flown into the truck when she threw him over like a slingshot, but reality showed her otherwise. She overestimated the strength in his chick body.

Chapter 11 - The Lost Town
The longer the travellers were stuck in the survival game, the more they lost themselves.It started with memories from when they were kids, then their high school times, their college times; those memories were slowly being devoured. Recent memories were foggy but could still be recalled if they concentrated.At least there was a silver lining.Claire took a deep breath. That’s right, all they had to do was get to the goal. Claire walked over to Noby, the chick with round glasses flinched.“It’s alright,” Claire softened her voice, “everything will be alright, okay? Look at your traveller’s profile and try to calm down, try to recall what happened before the game restarted.”Hearing Claire’s gentle voice, Noby sucked in a breath and his recent memories slowly came back to him. Both fear and relief overwhelmed him: fear because he really lost a lot of his memories, relief because he still had his human side.“...I’m okay now,” Noby said, turning to look at Claire, “thanks.”Claire res

“Willowdale Town?” she whispered; it rang a bell, but she couldn’t quite remember. Then, it hit her. That was the name of this stop.Corinne must be in this town somewhere, it’s just that she was stuck in the coop and in this game. She needed to get out.Claire began to snoop around and try to look for clues. After a little while of searching, she came across a folder and she began to pull out the papers inside. The first piece of paper was a newspaper cut-out that contained a missing person’s article.She brought out the second paper and it was the same, so was the third, and Claire’s mind began to wonder. When she was trying to bring out the fourth paper, she slipped on a round pen and fell off the table into what looked like a large sack from the inside. “Ouch!” she said as she landed on a hard object which happened to be a picture frame of a little boy when she looked at it. She looked around and she noticed that the sack was filled with personal items from different people, ke

Chapter 9 - The Lost Town
The five little chicks walked as fast as their legs could carry them towards the ajar door, the only passage of light into the coop; it seemed like the light at the end of the tunnel. “Wait, did you guys hear that?” Claire said as she suddenly stopped in her tracks, spreading her wings wide to stop the others from moving.“What? I didn’t hear anything.” Danny responded absentmindedly as he stroked the egg he carried like a baby.Claire moved a little closer to the door, and the sound came again. A chirp that would have been equivalent to a gasp escaped her beak. “There’s definitely something out there.” Claire added under her breath.“I’m not hearing anything. Let’s just be careful and follow the map to the star and get this over with.” Jason said as he waved his wings in the air.When he was done, he continued his journey toward the door and the other chicks exchanged glances before they trailed behind him; everyone except Claire, she was convinced there was something out there.Cl

Darkness…When Claire opened her eyes that was what first came into sight. ThompThompThompThen, she felt the ground shake. What’s going on? Is it an earthquake? Claire thought. She looked around, Where am I? And where’s Corinne? Claire thought, waiting for her eyes to adjust to the darkness. But she still couldn’t see anything.She touched the wall, it felt sticky. Gross…was she inside some creature’s stomach or something? “Let’s see…What do we have here? Do we have any unhealthy chicks today?”A loud, brittle, and hoarse voice could be heard along with the thumping sound. That was when Claire realized that it was heavy footsteps that caused the ground to shake.Before Claire could process what had happened, she felt herself being lifted up. Then, she heard a sharp, shrilling fan sound. The next thing she felt was pain, then everything turned dark.Ding
