Zephany stepped out of the cramped lavatory first, making sure to scan both ends of the car before stepping into the corridor. The disguise she had worn as Eclipse was now gone. Her long wavy hair was back in its usual messy bun, the faint scar she wore for her agent look was wiped away, and the heavy boots were replaced with her signature scuffed sneakers.
She smoothed her coat, checked her reflection one last time in the panel's glass, then headed back to the train car where this had all begun.
Meanwhile, Kendrick was also finishing up. He had changed in the service compartment at the far end of Car 6, where he'd tucked away his disguise. The dark coat and prosthetics were now sealed in a zip bag deep in his messenger bag. His hoodie was back on, hair ruffled just enough to look natural, and his face back to the easygoing, soft-eyed artist everyone knew.
