Yeah, yeah, whatever. I don't freaking own Thomas or Chuggington. If I did, Chuggington wouldn't exist, Thomas wouldn't be run by twelve Care-Bears in a Rosie O'Donnell suit, and I'd be bathing in money. But none of that is happening, so I don't own the shows.

Thomas was puffing down the line towards Knapford Station. The Fat Controller had assigned him to meet a new engine there. From there, Thomas would show him the ropes of the railway, and assign him his first job, a passenger train. Suddenly, as Thomas flew down the track, he spotted Percy talking to another engine! The engine was blue, like Thomas, but was a diesel, and had a bright yellow nose!

"Oh, hey Percy!" said Thomas as he pulled up alongside. "Who's your friend?"

"This is Brewster, Thomas!" replied Percy excitedly. "He's from a town called Chuggington! The Fat Controller bought him, and two other friends of his named Koko and Wilson."

Thomas was puzzled. "How could he afford it? The Fat Controller barely has enough to buy a ham sandwich!"

"That's easy! He sold Duck, Oliver, and BoCo."

"Oh, that's where they went. I was wondering about those three." Nonchalantly replied Thomas.

"Excuse me, but where's the roundhouse? I'm a little puffed out after my journey." Brewster said.

"It's over by Tidmouth Station, and you take the main line from the switch end of the wye-point-" Thomas began, but was cut off by Brewster.

"That's a little unnecessary, don't you think? Why don't you just tell me what tunnel to take?" Brewster asked.

"Tunnel?" scoffed Percy. "Pfft, what are you, crazy? We don't use tunnels to get everywhere! This is a real railway! I don't care what kind of screwed-up physics you live by in your little Tooting-Town-"

"Tooting-Town? TOOTING-TOWN?" I don't live in such a ramshackle place like Tooting-Town! I live in CHUGGINGTON! CHUGGINGTON, you tw-"

"Ookay!" cut in Thomas. "I'll leave you two to your squabbling. I need to go meet the new engine. Probably Wilson or Koko, from the information you've given me, Brewster"

And with that, Thomas disappeared, leaving behind a little puff of smoke and dust.

Thomas finally arrived at Knapford. There, on the platform next to him, was a shiny red diesel engine.

"Hello, I'm Thomas! I doubt you're named Koko, so you must be Wilson!" said Thomas.

"Lucky guess!" smiled Wilson. "So, what is it that I need to do?"

Thomas cleared his throat. "Well, I heard that you have a system of tunnels that you work around."

"That's correct!" answered Wilson.

"As awesome as that sounds, you may as well forget it now. There are railway lines that we follow here, so the railway can be expanded!"

"Well, that's interesting!" said Wilson.

"Yep! Also, there are multiple roundhouses here, not just one single house," explained Thomas.

"Woah! Are they all double-decker?" asked an astonished Wilson.

"No, in fact, there are no double-decker roundhouses here. There is no possible way to do that," said Thomas.

"Oh, that's cool," replied Wilson.

Just then, James pulled up right next to Wilson with the Express.

"Hey! We share a paint job!" said Wilson. "We can be best friends!"

"OH MY GOD! I ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO BE THE ONLY RED ENGINE ON THE ISLAND! THE RAILWAY CAN ONLY HANDLE ONE RED ENGINE!" screamed James.

"What? Why?" asked Wilson.

"IT UPSETS THE NATURAL ORDER OF THE RAILWAY! ONE OF US IS GOING TO EXPL-"

A large explosion rocked the area, leaving James a smoldering pile of ash.

"Woah!" said Thomas and Wilson simotanuously.

Yep, that's the first chapter. It's wonderful, isn't it?
