Title: Reindeer Train
Fandom: Earthbound Beginnings (/Mother/Earthbound Zero)
Words: 215
Characters: Ana/Ninten
Tags: minor spoilers



The train to Reindeer rolled slowly and steadily down the track. It didn't do to try and tackle the snow and the ice with undue haste. They had certain ways of predicting accidents in Reindeer but it was better to be cautious in the first place, even when the strange girl from the Church was already at the station, arriving just in time for the train even though it was delayed due to, apparently, aliens.

She'd been telling everyone the story: that someone, a boy, was going to meet her off the train this time. The local women smiled and said it was sweet that she was finally seeming interested in boys and they hoped she would meet the guy of her dreams. She blushed and said it wasn't like that, this guy was special. They would smile and explain that they all were, that was the whole point.

She'd left not long after, on one of her missions, apparently to quell the restless spirits down in Spookane. Everyone knew better, though; even she wasn't crazy enough to go somewhere as dangerous as Spookane. She just wanted out, really, an excuse to ditch that backwater place with her new guy. None of them blamed her. Especially with all the UFOs you saw around here lately.
