Grim Fandango 2!
Unofficial Ccreation
[[Intro]]Manny and Meche are on the number 9 train, heading to the Ninth Underworld and heaven.
The land of Eternal Rest.
They had to leave Glottis back in the 8th Underworld. Demons cannt cross into the 9th Underworld.
They've been having a great time
Suddenly the train stops. Everyone is shocked. It goes off its rails
[[Intro2]]Manny steps out and sees raiders. They're raiding everyone. He can't believe it. He hides as they shoot whips of poison ivy. He manages to avoid, but someone next to him cannot. The poor passengers are turned into
bits of smoke and dust, crumbling into nothingness next to him.
Meche screams. Manny turns and runs back.
The train is beginning to fall sideways. Everyone falls off their feet
[[Intro3]]You reach your compartment. She's gone. Meche is gone.
The raiders come and grab your arms. You instinctually pull your scythe out, its sharp blade glinting in the light. You turn towards them. They back off. The train is on its side. You keep brandishing it and exit. You see all the passengers being hauled off, into makeshift chariots that look like skeletal buffaloes.
Your eyes bulge out of your skull.
Could it be... No..
The god Quetz-coatl would never have the Dread buffaloes..
These must be from... Mictlan...
Someone hits you on the head and the world spins
