Outlaw: Train
By Kane
Gunlock
The years following Kane’s Disappearance are considered by many to be the worst
100 years in human history.
Drastic shifts in the Continents Changed the world considerably due to the newly
Developed weapons of Tara warfare .after the fighting had came to a genocidal halt
A mutated stain of sickness swept the Earth killing of half the human population of the planet before despairing. It’s been a year since Kane awoke for suspended animation in
The Cryogenic chamber he has no memory or recollection of who he was or were he came from .he was a tall man about 6” he as many scars across his body and a zig zagging
One down his right Eye. When he woke up form the chamber he had found that his left
Arm was missing .It was later replaced with a mechanical one .he is currently wondering
Around what used to be western North America.
He sat in the medium sized car of the Med Western Express crossing
The Great Mississippi Strait .it was a sunny afternoon as the sun gleamed on the ocean surf. Kane was napping as the train carted along .he had been looking for answers after leaving Neo Jersey on the east coast of the east America .he was grateful for the locals there for getting him up on to his feet .more so Dane for making him his false arm and his older Sister fia putting up with Kane crashing at there Apartment.
The Answers Kane was looking for were that of exactly who he was .so far he had came up with nothing .The only thing he knew when he woke up was his name “Kane Gunlock” Embedded on a pair of Dog tags he was wearing . He had so far been to Capital
City or what used to be Washington DC before it was hit by a Nuclear Missile and mid way city what was once called Chicago. The intercom chimed in
“Next stop Quad isles train station “
Kane was awoken not in surprise but a slow stir of yawning and stretching .he looked at the clock on the monitor screen fixed to his arm it was three and the next stop was in an hour. he looked around blankly .he had been up all night last night looking in archives of the Previous town then went drinking after an hour of nothing .He never gut hangovers (another strange side affect of the Arm) but he did have to go to the bathroom a lot so he got up stuffed his bag under the seat and slid sideways down the very narrow train hall way .taking a piss relived him greatly. He finished, Zipped up his fly
And headed back to his car.
Kane passed others as he went down the hall on the way back to his seat .One man looked like he was up to no good .not surprising since Law enforcement was far and few these Days .then he got that felling in his gut the one were you no against all logic something bad was about to happening .he didn't notice it that much at first but the felling was growing. He proceeded in to his cabin only to notice a women sitting opposite from were he sat previous to his absence from the car. She looked about twenty .Her hair was brownish black with a red strike running though it.
“Oh!? Hello” she replied in a surprised manner
“I'm sorry I didn't know this car was taken “she continued
“It’s alright your welcome to it” Kane said as he went to his seat
Kane was never the social type .Never attempting to make conversation with any one
But people he knew closely .If some one engaged him in conversation he would be polite and indulge them to the best of his ability.
She sat there for awhile reading the paper then looked at Kane and Smiled.
“Were you heading “she asked?
“The Quad “he said with out moving his head from the window
She folded her paper “on business or pleasure “
“Answers” Kane said
“Really” she replied “what kind of Answers “
He stared at her for a moment “I'd rather not say if that’s okay with you”
“That’s fine” she said “what’s your name?”
“Kane “he said “what’s yours?”
“Cim” she replied with a smile
Kane thought at first wither or not he should ask any more about what
Was going on with this stranger he didn't tell her much about him self and this was
Becoming a great struggle for him he felt that he was never good at socializing
He finally decided to ask
“Sooo what are you going to the quad for if that’s to assume were your going?”
She paused for a moment in thought
“R&R I Guess”
“Really” he said
“Ya if you can call Family R&R but you know how it is”
Kane replied with a blank almost sad stair
“I wouldn’t really know I never knew my family”
If he wasn’t sadden by what he just said she was about shed a tire.
Suddenly the train came to a violent halt .so much so that Kane’s
Feet almost smashed Cim’s face but Kane jumped out of the way in time.
Now he was face up at the ceiling down the hall gun fire could be
“I going to check it out so set tight” he said too Cim see nodded still in shock from the sudden halt
He grabbed his bag and searched in side for his gun. A magnum Revolver and an
Ammo belt a knife was is preferred weapons of choice and he was very efficient with Hand guns getting a kill Ratio of 89% with in a fifty foot radius .he peaked his head in to the hall there were was one armed gun man to the left of him facing away .He stepped one foot in to the hall then the other in a quite manner so that the gunman did not notice him .he drew his buck knife and charged the man striking him in his kidney he quickly
Covered the man’s mouth before he could yell out in pain .To end his life Kane pulled the
Man up and slit his throat .He then hide the body in the nearest bathroom. He then took any and all ammo and the dead gunman’s weapon an automatic rifle of sorts. He quickly cleaned his knife and put it back in the sheath and continued down the train.
He was careful not to get in to a drawn out gunfight for lack of ammo .Every gunman he eliminated he did so with his bar hands or knife..this also greatly reduced the amount of danger to the other passengers who were needless to say scared noodlesless. Each car there seemed to be more and more of the bandit’s .He wondered what in god’s name they wanted with a normal passenger train. It wasn’t carrying anything with any real value and no one on this train was of any major importance as far as him. he was almost to the end of the train he peaked in too the next room it was the dinning car the door was opened there were at least 7 guards .the two closest to him were caring on a conversation
“So why did we hold up this train again ”said the guard
"the boss said she took some thing "the other replied
"Ya but WHAT did she steal "the Guard asked in Annoyance
"Hell if I know some index of psyche or some made up crap like that "
"ooh "
Kane sat there for a moment thinking "Could the one they speak of be Cim "
he thought what ever it could be he felt that he had to stop them or no one else would.
He rolled out from the side of the door and popped two shots striking both of them in the head
this might have been a bad earlier but the game was different he had collected enough ammo from the dead Bandits .he backed up against the nearest seat for cover .the other five guards were now frantic .they were loading there weapons the Intercom blasted on "Give up now you are surrounded "
Kane Replied in a yell "Take another look at the train " one gunman looked down the hall then looked back at his cohorts .Kane took this as a perfect moment for a Lightning offensive .he ran towards the guard pulling out his knife and stabbing him in the same place he did the first bandit.two other guards came charging at him firing there weapons .Kane pulled the assault rifle he looted from the dead bandits .He pulled the trigger and mowed them down . the last two bandits were the hardest to kill .one pulled out what looked like an over sized cleaver and the other had some sort of makeshift Kitana. the one with the Cleaver charged at Kane with a vertical slash that nearly took Kane's right arm off . He almost fell on his ass but rebounded at the last minute. With his New footing he spun in to a Roundhouse kick Planting it right across his Jaw .the Cleaver bandit landed flat on his ass clenching his Jaw in agony scwerming. Kane Walked over placing his magnum in the man's Eye pulled the trigger .he stared over at the last bandit who must have wet him self
"AAHH GOD DON'T!!"he coward
Kane only replied "no,no you live , you live till how one man took out so many without mercy so go Coward!"his glare was that of a hawks firce and commanding he turned from the now very frightend bandit .go back down the train looking at all what was left of these men .He made his way back to the cabin to Find that Cim was long gone .Not only that but Kane's bag was missing Kane mad a rather large hole in the wall from the betrayal he felt .he decided not to make a big deal about it tell he got to the Quad. it would be ten hours tops before railway security arrived so he huffed it .In the future he would be less trusting of strangers and he knew exactly were sher was going .
