Run-away train

Ladies and Gentlemen,

I hereby present you a new game, Run-away Train. The rules are pretty similar to Free Word Association, from which I draw inspiration. (Thanks for such a great game Latinus.) Basically, the difficulty level is notched up a little. Each new word must contain the first and last letters of the previous one.

For example, cat - attack - asking
__________________________________
The first word is: hammer

murder (I'm not sure it's very hard your new game 4YEO!)

Hammer-murder-rumour, that doesn't follow the rules of the game. So I'll try and make it clearer. Above I have given the example cat-attack-asking. In cat, the first letter is 'c' and the last, 't'. Both 'c' & 't' are present in the next word, attack. Similarly, in attack, the first letter is 'a' and the last, 'k'. So I wrote asking, which has both the letters, i.e., a & k.

Now, in murder, the first letter of hammer, 'h, is missing. Similarly, in rumour, the first letter of murder, 'm', is missing.
Try again now.
