Chapter Six438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokqSDhDrAI
“Sixth Finger”
They listened carefully for every step of the way until Dhanel Marce concluded,438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaexbAmU2w
as he always does, with the already familiar question. They stared at each438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qW6Qg1dwO
other for the next couple of steps, silently as if trying to decide who among438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhr562Hx1iv
them should go first, but eventually Harigar Rhim would decide for them. He took438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7AeoAH9cI
the opportunity before any mutual agreement came to be, but they all would have their438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSPtfEgUsV
chance regardless, if so willing...438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxz2lcRe9P
“So, I’ll start with the more obvious question and not just to me, I hope” he smirks438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlF10y1wWQY
while looking around his companions “but the time to complete this mission seems438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7EVE0wPVR
awfully scarce considering how far away from reaching the top of that mountain we438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGYhHg75wV
still are. I don’t care how small that facility might be, it is still way up there and well,438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RuMhGgGMx
we are still down here. A few hours?! The time alone required for us to get to that top438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rnftXVf0Z
will easily use them up.”438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWy6Gmay76
“That is true but what are you exactly asking me? If I am sure of the amount of time438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgP9Ej86TN
made available to us, or you just expect something like that to be overlooked?”438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzpbiamrNY
“You jest boss, but you know exactly what I am asking. How are we to make it up438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakxW7AelCm
there?” Dhanel Marce smiles: “Yes of course. Well, there is a transport waiting to take438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7ULVOWa3L
us all the way to the top, right after we cross those soggy woods up ahead. A small train438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZNm5fjPrt
station rests amongst the stubborn cliffs overlooking the violent sea, and once there,438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpolFfYRf0c
we will take the train that transports any and all cargo towards that facility.”438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNx09Nj830f
“Excuse me... a train?” asked Deena. “Indeed, a train that will take us up the stream438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnoV5WghSI
if you will. There is nothing electric about it when it comes to how it is powered so438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72aihHdQxi
the EMP shouldn’t have any influence on it. Its engine is much like the trains of old438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRR6MEbAnY
running on steam so its motion should not be hindered. We will lack the electrics438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV32c4TtKO3
aboard but that tells little to us; no lights inside the cart and no voice to greet us, but438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2oJIWGZZX
that is about it. What matters is that it will take us up there and will do so at a good438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXs0tZH28t
speed. Just picture it as a train that runs vertically instead of horizontally.”438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡow9mNZ1ru8
“It cannot be just that...” Harigar Rhim stares at that mountain “Without any438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkzBy7FB1D
assistance of electrics how is it capable of moving alongside that mountain? I mean its438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXJc3v6vrp
tracks must stand almost vertical at times and there is no way it can run on them on438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwqHv3s7Ca
metal wheels alone.”438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2nfonJVCe
“You will all see.” their captain continues “I have travelled in one of these before,438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2BsHmdo31
long ago, and I do use the term loosely. Both of us, myself and the one I was with438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpwdsEIq0g
at that time, well we weren’t actually inside the train when we caught a ride on it.438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEtJ7R06kK
Hanging desperately to it is more like it. Anyway, it is nothing new by any means, but438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRVjQpx5zk
just something seldom utilized for how often does one find the need to travel both fast438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Zpyxooa4k
and vertically, in a way that an elevator won’t cut it. The ride should not take us more438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZOkWYGXsh
than twenty minutes at best.”438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDHrNbn9Z4
“So, this transport will deliver us inside the facility?”438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkYOmRGPXY
“I am afraid not Celle, as per these schematics” Dhanel Marce shows them to her438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRD30d3zju
“it will instead drop us off in the second building, more explicitly inside the warehouse438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDButZyDOl
where loaders and other similar machinery take shelter. There are three buildings atop438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzPGrZbJ73
that mountain: the facility, but also the warehouse where all sorts of things are stored438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4eaZI936V
within, and of course loaded into the train or relieved from it. That is where we will438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLSwSiHzeO
step out. Lastly, the smallest of the three and built slightly apart from the other two;438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cTq5gzOFZ
where all the main electric settings are, such as generators, conductors, that sort of438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKeJfKKc14
thing. The train will drop us off and after that, once we step outside, things will surely438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaSnGg9QRR
be placed in a better perspective.”438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgyeqfdF67
“Sir if I may... unofficially... I mean off the record; do you have any idea about...”438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTDSJOEb02
“Deena, wait!” Celle extends her right arm making her stop “Someone else is here...”
