AUTONOMOUS RAILMAKERS WILL NOTICE     
  WILDLIFE IN THEIR PATH AND STOP,      
  
 SOUND  A  HORN,   NUDGE  THE  ANIMAL   A 
 LITTLE,  BUT  ULTIMATELY  WAIT  IT  OUT. 
 ALTHOUGH THEY  WILL  LOG VIDEO, NO  CALL 
 WILL    BE   MADE    FOR   ANY   OUTSIDE 
      ASSISTANCE. THIS IS VERY GOOD.      
                                          
  THE RAILMAKERS ARE SIEMENS-MANUFACTURED 
 BRICK-LIKE  THINGS. FIELDS  OF  GRAY AND 
     TEAL, FLOODLIGHTS, THRUMMING AND     
 HISSING. TRILLING  TO  EACH OTHER,  LIKE 
 LANGUAGE.  AND  HERE,  THREE   OF  THEM, 
 SLOWLY  MAKING  THEIR  WAY  THROUGH  THE 
              DENSE FOREST.               
                                          
 I'M COMING  UP ON  THEM  FROM BEHIND AND 
 TO THE  LEFT,  HIDDEN  BEHIND THE  THICK 
 FOLIAGE.  THEIR  LIGHT  FINDS  THE  GAPS 
     BETWEEN THE LEAVES, CASTING RAYS     
 THROUGH THE  WET  AIR, PLAYING  OVER  MY 
 FACE AND ARMS, AND MY  WEAPON. I QUICKLY 
 OVERTAKE THEM, CROUCH IN  THE DITCH MADE 
 BY  THE PREPROCESSOR, AND WATCH. ONE  OF 
 THEM  IS  ALREADY   A  BIT  BEHIND   THE 
 OTHERS.   IT   WILL   BE   MY    TARGET. 
                                          
 JUST AS THE LIGHT OF THE LEADING TWO  IS 
 DIMMING, I DEPLOY  THE RABBITS, THROWING 
 THEM  IN  THE   PATH  OF  MY  PREY.  THE 
 CREATURES ARE YET ALIVE, BUT  MAIMED  SO 
 AS  TO  BE UNABLE  TO MOVE  - THEY  WILL 
 STAY  IN  THE  PATH  OF  THE  RAILMAKER, 
 FORCING IT TO PAUSE,  FURTHER SEPARATING 
         IT FROM ITS TWO FRIENDS.         
                                          
                                          
  
  ANOTHER THING ABOUT THE MACHINES:     
  THERE'S FLESH INSIDE THEM.  
  NOT MEAT, 
 BUT SOMETHING  LIKE A  LIVER, THAT  WILL 
  KEEP THE RAILMAKERS INTERNAL CHEMISTRY  
 WELL AWAY  FROM  THEIR VARIOUS EXHAUSTS. 
                                          
 A  LIVER THAT,  AS LONG AS YOU MANAGE TO 
 KEEP  IT  ALIVE,  CAN  CLEAN  THE  CREEK 
 WATER  ENOUGH  FOR IT TO  BE  DRINKABLE. 
                                          
          WHICH IS WHY I'M HERE.
