When they reached the station, a crowd of passengers poured off the train—everyone from office workers to hunters ready for duty. All of them carried weapons because dimensional rifts could open at any time in the southern region, just like the one that had appeared on the school's front lawn. After that, new passengers filled the car where Dennis and the others were sitting, dressed in all sorts of attire. Once the doors slid shut, the train started moving again, continuing its journey toward the eastern district.
The atmosphere inside the car became a bit crowded and noisy, making Dennis, Daisy, and the others feel a little uncomfortable. Quite a few people had to stand because they couldn't find a seat, while others gave up their spots for the elderly or pregnant women who had just boarded. Olivia, who was sitting at the end of the row, swapped seats with Jason, while Daisy swapped with Kimberly. Dennis and Daisy were now sitting across from each other instead of side-by-side.
