"I can't believe I'm doing this again..." Silver stepped on the train rubbing his brow. "Need help?" the attendant asked somewhat bored. "No thanks." "All right your compartment is in the back. Have a nice day." the attendant waved him on as he turned to the next passenger. "Yeah, thanks." Shouldering his bag Silver found his compartment, in fact the entire car, completely empty. Tossing his bag on the opposite seat he stared out the window, contemplating the reason he was here. The White Fang is intact, somehow despite the excursions and slaughter, the group still survives. Silver chuckled, or it could just be yet another wild goose chase a fool refuses to give up on. "What's so funny old man?" the faunus stopped noting his guest. Turning he was greeted by a sight he hadn't seen in years, a gun pointed in his face.

She (yes his assailant was a woman) glowered at him from under the cover of a dark blue (black maybe?) hood. Cloak covering most of her body Silver could only speculate at who this person was, and what he thought surprised him. "A teenager is holding me at gun point on a moving train and for the life of me I can't think of why." Silver commented aloud staring the female down. Looking away for just a moment it appeared that the kid was steeling herself, "Because you're worth a lot of money to the right people" as she turned back to answer Silver noted he had just lost his chance to disarm her. And strangely he was okay with that, curiosity outweighing basic survival in this case he held his hands in the air. "Well now that you've caught me you can tell your friends to back off leave me alone." he replied hearing quiet muffled steps both outside the compatrment and even the car. The female looked at him quizzically "What friends?"

Time slowed as Silver reached forward grabbing the teen and forcing her down to the ground before the walls exploded with rapid gunfire.noting that one of the shots fired at him had come from her gun Silver hissed "If you want to stay alive you need to work with me do you understand?!" Quickly the teen nodded "Good that makes things easier." Silver muttered as he produced a grey clay like blob and threw it at the window facing outside. "Now hold on." he instructed as he produced something else, a detonator. As he blew the wall out Silver kicked out of the compartment he had been in, dragging the teen with him somewhat confused. Adjusting herself the teen produced a shortsword slamming the blade into the side of the train slowing and eventually stopping their crazy ejection. That works too Silverr mused as he and the girl clambered into the new car (they had fallen quite far back in sich a short amount of time). Seeing that this was an empty car the faunus planted his feet in the middle dropping into a combat stance. "You may want to get ready." He threw over to his hunter turned ally upon hearing the would be assassins trying to open the door "This is going to get a little hectic."

Smoke in the distance Silver shook his head, a smile on his face. "Well that was fun." Turning to his companion he laughed. She may be unconcious but the woman had held her own fairly well in the train car. Even going so far as to take a blow meant for him, crossing his arms Silver wondered what to do with the assassin. Making up his mind he picked the girl up hefting her over his shoulder "I think I may know someone you should meet." Whistling as he strolled off to an undisclosed location.

A hooded figure approached a bunker in the middle of a wastland, keypad flashing garishly as they mistyped a code. With a soft word of impatience and a quick stab at the device, the door quietly slides open. Retrieveing their blade the figure diappears into the bunker and white fades into black...
