The Queen's train looked like any other except for the rear coach, which was painted a glossy black and bore the Queen's coat of arms in gilt upon the doors, and the great-coated army of grave-faced coves patrolling the platform around it.

    I would imagine the inside was not quite like other trains, her highness probably liked to travel with some ammenities.

    Oh, the coach sounds gorgeous! And then, there are those guarding her, which puts everything into another perspective.

    Thanks for sharing!

    My post - Deena Remiel - Trinity: A Brethern Novel

    Crap! She's never had her eyes open before, either. What the hell was going on?

    She sat next to her jerking body and waved a hand in front of her face. Hannah looked at and then past her, as though there really was someone else in the room - someone seated right next to her.

    Crap, crap, crap! As she turned to look beside her, she saw a hint of a shadow, but then figured it to be her own. Get a hold of yourself.

    "Honey, wake up. It's only a dream. You're okay, You're safe."

    Hannah looked back again at her, and foretold in a chilling tone, "I'll never be safe, Mama. Not anymore."

REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although
