Event start: On the train

The clothes Dunleavy had mentioned were simple light trousers, three plain t shirts in school colours, a warm jumper; again in school colours and a pair of walking boots. There was also a small rucksack so spare clothes and other belongings could be packed.

On the platform NPCs were loading what seemed to be tents, cooking stoves and sleeping bags into the hold. Those chosen were ushered onto the train and told to sit wherever they liked.

Once everyone had arrived the whistle sounded and for the first time in fourteen weeks the train set off in the opposite direction. Smoke whistled happily past the window as they began to go faster past meadows and trees.

Then, quite suddenly everyone began to feel very sleepy. "There is a story everyone knows..." It was that old dream again, lulling you in and you find your eyes dropping against your will...

When you wake up the train is slowing and the countryside looks different, mountainous, rougher; a little more wild.

"Attention everyone, the train is approaching it's final destination. Please be ready to leave the train in half an hour." As people shake off the last of the sleep this message continues.

Then it changes, "You will notice that some of your now possess a coloured exaclan glove on your chair, others will notice a coloured ring. Please put them on now. Your first task is to find your Player if you are a Weapon, or your Weapon if you are a Player. Find the person whose colour matches yours."

((The information post that has the colours and pairs is here!))

"Twin," Hikaru clarifies. "I told him we wouldn't get separated again. Of course the game had to do exactly that." He sighs, frustrated, but he's run out of steam for being as volatile and sarcastic after spending all of last week that way.

Shooting Hikaru a side glance, Yosuke pursed his lips thoughtfully as an idea began to form in his mind. After a moment, he decided to voice it aloud. Why not? It couldn't possibly hurt. (And it might lighten his weapon's sour mood because- seriously- this guy was raining on his parade.)

"Why don't we ask whoever he's paired with to team up then? I mean- I know this game is usually about fighting but this week's camping right? I don't know about you but I'm not exactly the rough-n-tough type. Four people working together has gotta be better than two in this kind of situation."

That caught Hikaru's attention. He visibly softened at the suggestion, relaxing a bit. "Yeah, that would be great. I don't know how much help I'll be."

Hikaru really didn't mean to rain on anyone's parade, but he was also oblivious enough to not realize that he was interrupting anyone else's fun. He wasn't outright selfish, but he was so used to it only being him and his brother, he had a hard time thinking about other people.

Finally, Yosuke thought, relaxing in turn as Hikaru lightened up a bit.

"Then let's head over and ask." He said instead, already starting to walk down the aisle.
