Train Heist Fever

Marissa began her day off from adventuring with a great sigh.

The red hatted young woman loved adventuring and seeing different places more than anything else, however she was feeling under the weather and couldn't leave the town she was staying in.

“I wish this fever would go away,” Marissa mumbled as she sipped tea. “I guess I won't get to do much of anything today.”

As she sat outside, feeling the cool breeze and drinking warm tea, she watched a train pass by. She wondered where it was off to. Perhaps some faraway place? “Maybe my next journey should be on a train.”

As Marissa's mind wandered, she noticed someone on the tracks. “Huh?”

“Bwahaha-Mwahahahaha!!!”

“Oh! It's Edji!” Marissa gasped.

The ghastly green goblin (or whatever Edji was) was standing in front of the train, hands on his hips and smiling as he looked at the oncoming vehicle.

“He's gonna get run over!” Marissa gasped, looking at the terrible sight, when she noticed Edji summoning his Crook of Contemplation.

The foul fiend raised his staff, watching as blue energy surrounded the train, taking it off its tracks. Telekinetically, he lifted the train off it's tracks, setting it aside with glee. “Yes! Now my heinous train heist can begin!”

Marissa gasped, realizing that Edji was up to no good. She ran off to stop him when she suddenly sneezed, her necklace glowing. “Huh?”

Suddenly, Marissa was transformed, shrinking until she was the size of a mouse. Looking at herself, seeing her mouselike tail, ears, and whiskers, she wondered why she had changed.

Sneezing again, Marissa was back to normal. Still, she had to stop Edji. Going on, Marissa hoped all would be well.


"It looks like I might get a sort of adventure after all...”
