She sat in one corner of the compartment; nubile, soft and delicate.
On her journey to a land far, where resided her sole happiness.
She was totally unawares, of the dangers that evening that lurked; eyes that were constantly kept on her, ready any moment to pounce.
As the train began to move, the whistle blew sending signals far; as the steam rolled the wheels, her assailants too went on a raping spree.
Her cries for help and mercy so drowned underneath the train's chugging noise, that, even the angel high above couldn't save her honour, on well on time.
