Lucy is the majority. I can't believe I forgot to write the fifth name. Ah well, live and learn.
>Lucy
Lucy. Yes, that sounded right.
You suppose that means you're a girl too? That would explain the lumps on your chest. And the fact that your hair kept blowing into your eyes. And why Ryan was blushing when you stared at him. Funny, you thought this stuff was common knowledge: no, it was common knowledge. How on Earth did you forget this?
"Lucy." You say, nodding slightly as you did.
Ryan seems pleased, and nods back. Just before you can ask him anything though, he breaks away from you and scans the cab. A few seconds pass in silence, before he turns back. "Sorry, just getting my bearings. Haven't seen this cab yet, must have been added yesterday. Or it's up the track. Hope I'm not too far from the others."
You raise an eyebrow. Yesterday? You don't remember that either. Should you? Shaking the thought away though, the questions building on your minds dam finally break, and you start talking.
Pick 3
>"Where am I? We! Where are we? Sorry."
>"How did I get here?"
>"What do you mean 'yesterday?' What happened yesterday?"
>"Why can't I remember anything?"
>"The bottles, they're not poisonous, are they?"
>"Why are you so cold?"
>"I'm hungry."
>All of the above.
>Other (write in.) -
Why can't I remember anything?

The hair between your fingers is clean and smooth, like liquid, as you run a hand through your hair. A weight was building in your chest again, "Why can't I remember anything?"
Ryan looks at you carefully, before shrugging. "Maybe you hit your head? Who knows? What are you trying to remember though? Maybe you should figure that out before you try to remember everything. Though, I suppose new passengers always have a little bit of amnesia, but that should clear up as you settle in."
At the mention of settling in, you finally lose it. There's no time to waiting, no time for coherent thought; you have questions, and they need answers, and you are just going to fire questions until you run out. "Settle in? Settle in! I don't even know where I am! Or how I got here! I woke up and drunk a bottle of strange liquid, and now you're blabbing on about yesterday and getting settled in, all while being colder than a block of ice. And on top of all this, I haven't eaten since...I can't even remember. That is what I want to remember!"
You pause for a minute, catching your breath, before a wayward thought crosses your mind. You dismiss it quickly, and Ryan blushes again. "Alright, alright, slow down. Geeze, I get it. We'll answer this one at a time, alright, nice and easy. Then we'll order some food, and get you settled in."
Ryan raised his hand, using his fingers to number off the questions as he talked. "We're on the train. Nobody knows how they got here. Yesterday we 'stopped' to pick up new passengers and cabs. As a general rule you shouldn't drink strange drinks you find lying around. I'm not cold, you are. Any more questions?"
Pick 2
>"So the drink's not poisonous?"
>"I know we're on a train, where are we going though?"
>"'Stopped?'"
>"How do I get off the train? When's the next station?"
>"I don't feel cold."
>"No more questions." -

>How do I get off the train?
>I don't feel cold.
"I'm pretty sure I'm not cold. I don't feel cold."
Ryan simply shrugged again, "You're cold to me. I'm cold to you. Clearly one of us is in the wrong here."
You cross your arms in frustration, but decide to let it slid.
"How do I get off the train?"
"You could jump." Ryan said, chuckling. When you noticed you were being completely serious, it only inspires him to laugh harder. "Oh man, you're not joking."
Throwing an arm around your shoulder, Ryan pulls you in close, "Let me tell you a secret. No one gets off the train. Now, you're new here, I understand that, and you're going to met a lot of crazy people who claim they know how; but they're lying. No one gets off the train. Best to get that idea out of your head early."
Pulling himself to his feet, Ryan offers you a hand up. You ignore it and pull yourself up. He vanishes from your sight for a moment, but a loud thunk immediately tells you where he went. Turning around, you see that Ryan has pulled a ladder down from the roof. Whistling fills the room, like a banshee's cry, as wind races down from the hole in the roof. You assume it would feel cold, but you don't notice it.
"Come on, let me show you something." Ryan says, before vanishing onto the roof of the cab.
>Follow him. It would be rude to leave him.
>Don't follow him. He's clearly crazy. Maybe you can find something else in the cab to help you. -
