Down on the white-tiled platform of Jonestown Station a tiny high-pitched singing noise began, though there may not have been anyone to hear it. An almost imperceptible breeze followed.

At length a rumble could be heard, steadily rising. From the depths of the tunnel came a glow of light, sliding along the brand-new rails.

It was followed by the blunt nose of a shiny white train, reading JONESTOWN in yellow letters on the front. The train pulled in and shuddered to a stop; its doors hissed open and Peri stepped out.

She noticed that someone or something had already written an illegible sigil of some sort in paint on the side of the train. Probably while it had stopped for a few moments in the tunnels waiting for a points switch. She shrugged. "Can't be helped, I suppose," she said. The ends of her hair twitched as she looked around for the WAY OUT sign. "Right. Where's this pub?"

A flight of stairs led to the surface. Peri emerged into sunshine beneath an Underground sign and saw the pub a little way to the south. The roof was still smouldering.

As she came closer, she could make out several people apparently having a picnic in front of it. She headed towards them.
