Shots begin firing.  Jade is on her back firing up as the mutant goes by.  Snow is unconscious on the floor, so luckily they are mostly out of the path of bullets.

The mutant is riddled with bullets and falls to the floor.

Elle is conscious now and gently nudging Sam to wake him.

As the mutant falls to the floor, the party rushes forward to pull Snow to safety and set him on a bench in the train.

You notice that the train has slowed at least another 10 kph.  It might not be going much faster than 25 or 30 kph at the moment.

And then you see the horde approaching.  Your jaws drop agape.  The mutants are running down the tunnel, climbing walls, and running at a pace faster than the train can outrun.  The first wave will reach the train in a minute, maybe less.  Although the tunnel is dark, you guess there are several hundred of them chasing after the train.

The window at the controls is now shattered from the previous mutant's entry.  Through that large opening, you hear the squeals, clicks, and other strange sounds as they march toward you.

Jade yells back to Lot, "Give Snow a shot of the boost rate and inhibitor."

Then she turns back to the sight in front of her.  "Time for a rocket launcher," she says, preparing the LAW to fire into the horde.

Laz takes a quick breath as he sees the mutant go down but is at a loss when he sees the approaching horde. "Anyone know how to speed this thing up?"

 Fault looks to Laz and nods. "I know thirty separate prayers designed to increase the speed of a vessel," he points to his wounded leg, "and I've got enough blood to perform any of them... Unfortunately, they're all designed for sea-going craft, and I'm not sure any of the gods can hear me here, so they may not work."
 He drags his fingers over his bloodied calf. "I can try one if you'd like?"
