I've never really tried to write anything that original, but for once, I'm gonna try hard  DD.
Prologue ~ Escape
Over the speakers above, you could hear Tony Hatch's Downtown playing coarsely. The car's dull red and tan, or what used to be white, started to peel off.
"When you've got worries, all the noise and hurry seems to help, I know,
Downtown!"
A panicked woman raced through the dining room car with fear gleaming in her eyes. Her heart pounding in her ears. The woman's blonde hair slapped her face as she veered her head backwards to see if they were coming.
They were coming. Coming at a productive pace. They kept pace with the woman.
"Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city, Linger on the sidewalk where the neon signs are pretty."
Then, as soon as she turned around, it happened. She realized she was right at the door of the car, there was a linking cable and two hooks to keep the cars together between the two, but the strength of the cable was decreasing. Slowly, but surely, the cable started to break.
Without given the time to think, two of them attacked her and she lay helpless near the cable and linking hooks. They gave her a slight shake and her beautiful gleaming blonde hair drooped in between the two hooks. Then, the hooks closed.
The woman's hair was caught and when she tried to escape, she was yanked back. The second time she slammed her head on the hook from recoil, a chip of metal fell off and caught, not only on her hair, but on the breaking cable as well
"Downtown! you'll find a place for sure --"
Blood seeped through her scalp and her hairline decreased. The cable continued to stretch. They just watched in amazement as their victim. One of them drooled onto her face as tears dripped out of her eyes.
"Downtown! Things will be great when you're --"
Seconds later, another tiny chip fell off, again catching her hair and the cable. Both pieces stuck tightly, until - POP! The cable broke. Her scalp exploded off, blood everywhere. They stared obsessively as she slowly bled to death.
"Downtown .... Downtown..."
Her eyes rolled back into her head and they walked out of the door.
