Chapter 1 - 01. The Train Museum

Wonder, what it is?

Few days ago, Zi Zen and his family was visiting a train museum which are having a new train exhibition, rumor they manage to excavate a antique train which are out of this world. About this museum, something is strange because it suddenly pop out of nowhere from a vacant lot somewhere near Zi Zen house district. When mom go gossip around the neighbourhood, the aunty don't feel anything strange about it. When ask, they all have vague memory about the museum like "I though it was there long time ago?" or "just a museum, who interested with it", So no wonder no one realise it until now. After a few attempt, all give almost a similar answer. But since nobody really care, Zi Zen decide not to care.

Since, Zi Zen is also have nothing to do on the day of the new train exhibition, he decide to go take a look with his family. Moreover, he was also interested in that train as well for some reason. Weird.

"The weather is nice today, windy and not that hot. Not even a dark cloud sighted around" Say Zi Zen. "Ya, perfect day to dry the cloth, let just pray the weather won't turn bad before we back, or all cloth will have to wash again. " mom said as she hang the cloth.

"No worry, mom. By car, we will be reaching there and get home by 30 minutes if the museum got nothing nice to see." Hopefully not, or our journey to there are waste of time and petrol. Think Zi Zen in heart. Because he made the choice of going there, he have to drive there using his car. Naturally all expenses he have to bear as he the one who suggest it.

After a while, we arrive at the museum. It unexpected not a single people, well except for my family who walk by me now. I wonder why? Zi Zen wonder. No one like historical thing7? No wonder many people fail 'sejarah' (history) in SPM.

Zi Zen family walk toward the entrance and approach the counter. But there no one there. However, a scroll with notice is place hang at the wall beside the table. 'Away for break'. If you want enter, kindly put RM25 per pax into the box beside the table and just enter.'

"What a carefree staff or should i say careless museum, don't they worry that people will just enter without even paying?" Say Zi Zen as he put RM100 from his wallet to the box. "Ok, let us go in." As he say to his family member.

-----

Unknown to Zi Zen or his family, three individual is watching his every moves through a monitor.

A man just stand at the side silently watching while smoking cigar.

"CCTV is convenient,you know why? We can spy on other without anyone suspecting anything. Hehe"

"Well, we can only install at around our premises only and there are some area which we cannot install them. Don't even think of putting them in the place you are thinking now. A man say coldy and stare toward the elderly man"

"Hahaha, what you talking about? I was not planning to put it at the dressing room. Don't you believe me?, look into my innocent eye, how does people with such eye will do such thing?" The elderly man show a innocent cute face toward the man.

*Bang* *Ding* A bullet is shot at the elderly man but was block by a barrier.

"Don't show me that disgusting face, I feel like punching it so don't make me do it."

'You can hold back your punches but you directly shot me with your gun without hesitation. If I a mortal, I already dead.' Think the elderly man as he inhale the smoke pipe

Zi Zen appear at the monitor at this moment ,with his face facing the CCTV direction.

"So that the one huh?" While exhaling, the elderly man use his smoke paip and point at Zi Zen.

"It should be them, what we detect was around this area we are in now but we cannot pinpoint the exact location." Say the woman with two scroll floating on her head. It look heavy and wonder how she manage to keep the scroll floating. "That why we setup this museum, to gain his attention. We already put that only the one will be able to read the message and to ensure success, we setup a formation so the non-related will be avoid to come here subconsiously"

"..."

"It that why our museum now look empty? "

"It don't just look empty, it actually no other living thing aside from them and us."

"What about the tree and plant around the museum?"

"Don't make me state the obvious, want to kiss my fist?"

"I prefer to kiss you."

"One foot on the coffin yet so perverted"

Wow, this museum surprisingly clean and got good lighting. Can't really see from the outside but this place is huge. All sort of train is display along with it description on the front. Some look worn out are steam locomotive and those look new are but are diesel and electrical locomotive. There even display one very unique thing. The model of the first steam engine ever created. WoW.

"Hey, look at that." Say his mom as she point toward that stage with something in in.

"Look at what?" ask Zi Zen as he follow the direction of the finger and land his sight on an odd train. The train is all worn out, full of scratch, hole and dent everywhere like it been through war. But what amazing is it look much alive compare to other train. Moreover, a board by it side written ' Climb aboard and enjoy the adventure you never been before.'

"Wow, let all get on that train now and see what it can offer to us. Mom, dad, lit bro faster, faster get on it. I can't wait."

Once all the family member get on board, the train wisel by itself and make a sound of engine fire up and wheel turning. The door close. and the curtain close by it self.

"Is it my imagination or the train is moving by itself ?"

"Come on dad, I think is the entertainment that the museum prepare for the customer. Of course they have to make it as real as possible to attract more customer. I think it will be better if it really take us on adventure. My life are bored now at home. Everyday play game only and many time I get noob teammate that make me drop in rank. If they noob, go classic or brawl, don't rank. Haih." Say Zi Zen.

"Ya,ya, I will go behind and see what they prepare for us." "Hopefully a sofa or at least a chair. I tired. Somemore today my off day." Mutter dad .

As for mom and lit bro, they already go behind to explore the moment they enter this train.

-------

"Did you see that, the train acknowledge them and start moving they enter. Even when we try to inject magical power and spiritual energy It does not budge." Say a woman with scroll.

"Putting high grade century tree wood and eternal flame crystal into it also does not budge but instead smoke only come out from the chimney." say the man while wiping his gun

"Since, we can't use it for ourself, we will just watch them for now. It been a while since we have some entertainment. Gulp, gulp, gulp, 'Sound of inhaling smoke' Wah, drinking wine while smoking is awesome." say the elderly man.

Three of their eye fix at the monitor.

What adventure shall await Zi Zen family?

"Somehow we are like stalker."
