=== Chapter 7 ===
[[Wax]] notices that their car has decoupled and instinctively begins a steelpush. The bullet is diverted from hitting [[Marasi]]. There are some guys on horseback outside. They take off when they realize an [[Allomancy|Allomancer]] is on the car. Wax combines his powers to advance their car and reattach it to the main train. He battles the bandits, which worry him because they don't look like common thieves. He tries to restore his metal reserve but finds his vials broken. [[Steris]] provides him with three that she has brought along just in case. On one of the cargo cars, the robbers use some sort of gas to chase out the guards and blow open a safe. Wax bandages up a guard, and he relates that the robbers used Allomancy to get in the car. A small metal cube lands near Wax, and his metal reserves vanish.
 
Marasi is in a firefight with Steris reloading for her. One bandit tries to take a hostage, but Marasi immediately guns him down without thinking. She considers killing such a waste, that society has failed if it has to come to this point. Marasi loses track of Steris -- she has gone somewhere in a very determined fashion.
 
A really big dude who is also a [[coinshot]] brawls with Wax. Wax's punches are ineffectual. He escapes out a window and on top of the car and sees four bandits on another car bearing some large item. The big dude follows up with [[Ranette]]'s mega shotgun that he's confiscated from Wax's abandoned gun belt. When he shoots from the hip, the gun drops from his hand and he is wounded. Wax desperately tries to get his other vial, but the brute has him pinned down until Steris shows up and fires the shotgun, wounding him. But the kick of the gun throws her off the train.
