He saw the station ahead. It was a large grey building and the front was made of glass. He saw that a train was docked on the opposite side of the glass windows and he would have to rush through in order to reach the train. People looked to be starting to board it.
That included Lilly. But he didn't see her, but that still meant he had to get there immediately.

He jumped into the crowd, pushing and shoving his way through to get to the train
-
He had to make his way through the glass building, and he pushed his way through the door to get inside. The station was massive, as well as crowded. Royal could see the train outside, the last of passengers were boarding. And then, he saw Lilly. She sat at the window seat, at the cart near the back. She looked out the window, she seemed...blank. He still had to reach her. There was a crowd, a set of doors and a train in between him and his goal.
-
He continued pushing through, moving through the crowds and shoving people to the sides as he ran "EXCUSE ME! Padron me! SORRY!" He screamed at those he threw to the ground
-
After many curses thrown at him from the people around him he made his way out of the station. The train started to move and Lilly's cart was now ahead of his location. Royal would have to grab onto the train in order to reach her. If he didn't she would be gone forever.
-
He took a deep breath, breaking into a rush of speed as more adrenaline than ever pumped through his blood and body He reached out, grabbing at the train with his hand
-
The train yanked his body to the right, as it began to speed up. But, he held on. Royal grabbed on to the section in between the train cars, so he could step up on the small platform that was in front of the door to Lilly's car.

-
As he looked across the train cart, he saw that most of the seats were filled. No one really noticed him, as the crowd of black or brown haired people didn't turn their heads. But, from looking down on the seats, he saw a white head of hair sitting by itself, eight rows down. The cart had bars above the seats where bags rested themselves. These bars also had straps, likely for when the train was booked out.
-
He took a deep breath, moving down the aisle of seats towards Lilly, where he stopped and looked down at the young girl "You mind if I sit here?" He asked calmly, placing his hand on top of the seat

-
He sat down in the chair besides her, looking out the window as well "Quite the view. Guess you didn't see it often from a frozen Wonderland." Royal quietly commented as he looked out at the city
-
"No. I guess I....wait." Lilly stopped as she read into the question. She turned her head slowly so that her bright blue eyes looked on Roy. They went wide as she recognized the man sitting beside him, and she suddenly turned her head away to the window again. "How...what are you doing here royal?" She asked.
-
"I came to speak with you. Don't think we ever finished our conversation." Royal said, with a small smile
-
"I didn't want to finish it." Lilly said sombrely as the train went through the city. It had to make some stops and pick up more passengers.
-
"You know some Of your Family troops shot Joseph? Thought I'd let you know that he might not make it. And he's on your side." Royal suddenly blurted out, leaning back in the chair
-
"Wh-what?" Lilly asked as she turned to Royal. Her face was full of worry as her eyes were glossy.
-
"Joseph wanted to come find you with me, so we went to visit The Shadow back in Teluria. While in her bar, a couple of Coldbourne troops showed up. Shot at us. Joseph was hit...."
-
"Oh...oh no...." Lilly whispered as she looked down at her feet.
-
"What does that tell you about your family? First your own brother, now one of your own troops..."
-
"That they are willing to get me back...no matter what..." she said softly as she turned her head out to the cityscape again.
-
"Maybe it's a sign that you shouldn't. What is going to happen to them is inevitable. You don't need to be involved in that...."
-
"I don't know what you're talking about." She told Royal stubbornly. The girl was determined to not believe what Roy was saying. All he had to do was break through to her. Somehow...
-
"Oh? Lilly. Where are you going right now? You've gotten on this train. What's the destination?" He asked calmly, looking up at the ceiling of the train car
-
"I...I don't want to tell you that Royal." She said to him.
-
"You don't? Well here's what I think. You're not going anywhere. I mean, where could you go, right? Runt of the pack, Diana is hallway across the world. Cain is who knows where, Felix and the other one have their own stuff to take care of. So who's left for you to go to?"
