Highlander Logs 2

Hey, there's a fight going on in that cabin!

Yeah? Over here too!!

Haha, as expected of the Inner Loop Line! Never a dull moment here!

A-Ack...

Every single cabin? Really? Unbelievable...

The peaceful morning lulled us into a false sense of security.

God! Why can't we have just one day where everything goes smoothly?

We can't handle all of this with just us...

Wh-What should we do...?

Let's call for reinforcements. We can't do anything without suppressive forces.

...

Ah, understood. I'll call the CCC.

Huh? Inner Loop Line HL9000?

What's...going ooon?

W-Well...!

We currently have disruptions in every single cabin!

It's too much for just the internal Highlander Train Crew to handle!

We're requesting reinforcements. Our current location is...

Nooope. No...can do!

We've got our own issues to deal with! We don't got anything to spare.

Huh?! Then, wh-what are we supposed to do??

Just take it easy! And keep all the crew members safe and all that jazz.

Reinforcements...on the way! Soon!

U-Ugh...! Yes! Understood...!

So, I guess that means to just...stay put, for now?

That's what they said...

Should we just stop operations at the next station, to give reinforcements time to arrive?

Mm... Then maybe some passengers would just get off too...

...

Do we really have to do that...?

I mean, what else CAN we do? It's just the three of us...

The situation just is what it is.

No matter how much they mess up the train, we can get repairs done as long as we make it to the depot.

And that's...really all we can do?

Hmm?

At this rate, the punctuality and safety regulations we've always adhered to, the announcements we make...

...they'll all be rendered meaningless.

As students of Highlander Railroad Academy, our job is to operate this train well and safely deliver our passengers to their destinations.

B-But...! What could we possibly do?

It's those very passengers we're supposed to deliver that are wreaking havoc!

That's it!

Our duty is to operate the train and protect its passengers.

However! Look at those people destroying our cabins!

Can we really call them passengers?!

Huh? W-Well...

All they're doing is freighthopping, inconveniencing others, inciting violence, and even peddling!

If our duty is to protect the good passengers, then it's also our duty to remove the evil ones!

S-Seriously...?

Think about it! They're the only thing keeping us from business as usual!

E-Even if we tried that, how...? We don't have the power...

We do! We do have power!!

We all have guns, don't we?!

Y-You want us to go out there and fight?

We're a train crew! Just the measly Highlander Train Crew!

No, that's not all we are! We're the ones who run this train!

Okay.

Yes. Let's do this!

What has Kivotos come to?! Kids these days only know disrespect!

Ah, seriously...?! You're still going on about that...?

You heard me! The world is so easy for you kids! Back in my day!!

Gah!

Cabin 7, subdued.

All right. Let's move on.

...Uh?

J-Just now...? Was that...?

Haha! At this rate, I'll make record sales this month!

I'll reach sapphire rank soon... Heehee...

Hold on, President! Just a little more, and we can revive our club!!

Gah!

Confiscate all illegal contraband.

Leave it to me. I won't miss a single one.

Hey! You know who I am?? Huh?!

I don't know who you are!! How old are you? Huh?!

Just one phone call from me, and you'll be...

Oh, yeah? Go on, then! Call!!

Waaah!

Aaah!

...

...It's so peaceful now.

...Yeah.

Usually, we would have struggled fruitlessly, trying to coax and appease all these people...

They would never go quietly. We'd have to apologize and beg them...

Yeah...apologize...even though we didn't do anything wrong.

Maybe...we can operate this way, from now on?

That's what I'm saying. It was...so simple. So easy.

Why have we been struggling all this time?

Guns are really...

...truly AMAZING!

Yes! And this method is amazing!

This train is OURS now!

...

Th-They were shooting at passengers...

I saw them too...

They've lost their minds!!

...

We heard everything was cool, so we came on over...

...What in the heck happened here?

As you can see, the situation is under control!

We've developed the perfect method!

Yes! We effectively utilized the firearms and explosives in the train!

I-It's them! Those Highlander Train Crew members were shooting up passengers!!

A-Are they allowed to do that? Aren't they supposed to be protecting us?!

Yuppies. All fiiine.

...Fine?

Mhm, mhm. It's...self-defense...

Take 'em out, before you're taken out. Fiiine.

...Eh?

Sick! I didn't think you had it in you! You actually did it!

Yeah, yup. Keep it up.

Pahyahya! Everyone here is Student of the Month!

W-We did it...!

Hey, is this for real?! My wildest dreams have come true!

I knew it! The old saying, "The answer lies in gunpowder," was right!

Everyone, let's always uphold our duties!

That is all for our vlog today! Please continue to show love to us, Highlander Railroad Academy!!

I'm riding the bus from now on...
