The trouble with mud
This is my own version of the Thomas story "The trouble with mud", but there is a twist I'm using my version of the Thomas characters not the CGI Characters, hope you like it =)
It was a cloudy day on Sodor, Gordon was on his way back to the sheds he was speeding down the line, Then there was trouble a big puddle was across Gordon's line, he sped through the puddle and was covered with mud.
Gordon: Oh f**king hell!
Meanwhile Thomas was in the yard having a wash down, Rebecca was helping
Thomas: Nothin' like a good wash down to start the day, thanks for helipn' Rebecca
Rebecca: No probs
Just then Gordon arrived. Thomas and Rebecca gasped.
Rebecca: Have you had a mud bath Gordon?
Gordon: No, I splashed through a big puddle and this happened.
Thomas: Maybe you should have a wash down before y'all do the express.
Gordon snorted
Gordon: I've got no time to clean up, like certain wee tank engines.
And he puffed away.
Rebecca: Will he have a wash down?
Thomas: Yeah, he will eventually.
Rebecca: Cool
Thomas: Wanna come with me to the docks?
Rebecca: Ok
Thomas: Climb aboard.
Rebecca sat in Thomas' cab then he set off for the docks.
Meanwhile Gordon was at the next station he saw a sign "All trains must wash down daily" Gordon snorted. James was there, he was already being cleaned.
James: C'mon Gordon have a wash down so you don't look like a piece of s**t on wheels.
This made Gordon very cross he blew steam angrily, mud went all over James.
James: Gordon you bloody idiot!
Gordon: That's what you get for callin' me a piece of s**t on wheels.
And he puffed angrily away.
Thomas and Rebecca pulled into the docks.
Rebecca: Can I stay here Thomas?
Thomas: If yo wanna I'll see u later.
Rebecca climbed out of Thomas' cab, Thomas whistled then puffed away .
Rebecca saw James she went over to him.
Rebecca: Hiya James
James: Hi Rebecca, y'know what Gordon did to me earlier on
Rebecca: What?
James: He blew mud at me.
Rebecca tried not to laugh
Rebecca: *sniggers* why would Gordon do that?
James: Well I'll admit it was my fault I made him cross by callin' him a piece of s**t on wheels.
Rebecca: That's why he did it then.
James: Yeah
Suddenly Gordon rushed through he bumped his trucks hard.
Gordon: That's for you and you and YOU! Bleeders.
James: Calm down Gordon, trucks will be trucks
Gordon: Huh with you maybe but not with me, I'll teach 'em.
And he gave them a mighty biff.
Rebecca: My god he is in a bad mood.
James: He definitely knows how to biff a truck.
Rebecca agreed.
Just then Gordon returned.
Gordon: I'd be careful on the hill James, I went up there this morning and even I had trouble gettin' up there so let me know if u need help.
James snorted
James: I won't need help, just you wait and see.
Gordon: Don't say I didn't warn you
James puffed away.
Rebecca: Hiya Gordon
Gordon: Oh god hey Becky I never saw you there, how long you been there?
Rebecca: Quite a while, I saw you biff them trucks, that's what I call muscle.
Gordon chuckled
Gordon: Trucks piss me off and I've had a bad say too.
Rebecca: Really?
Gordon: Yeah, well first I splashed through a big puddle, then James called me a piece of s**t on wheels so I blew steam at him, then I couldn't pull the express 'cause I was too dirty and I was told to get cleaned and shunt bloody trucks.
Rebecca: Oh dear
Gordon: I know, anyway c'mon lets go see if James needs help up the hill.
Rebecca: But James said he didn't need help.
Gordon: *chuckles* I know James Rebecca, he says these things and he fails miserably, and another thing I struggled up that hill this morning so he'll have no chance with three heavy express coaches.
Rebecca: True
Gordon: Climb on
Rebecca climbed onto Gordon then they set off for the hill.
A few minutes later they arrived at the bottom of the hill.
Gordon: Look there's James.
Rebecca: He's quite far up
Gordon: I got that far then I began to struggle but I managed to get up, but James won't he's got heavy express coaches so he won't make it like a long shot.
They saw James struggling to get up the hill.
Gordon: He's struggling
Then James started going backwards down the hill.
Rebecca: He's rolling backwards.
James stopped next to Gordon.
Gordon: I thought you could get up the hill James.
James was too breathless to answer, Gordon smiled.
Gordon: Tell you what I'll help you up the hill, how does that sound.
James: *pants* ok Gordon thanks
Gordon smiled then he changed tracks and buffered up behind the express.
Gordon: Let me know when you're ready James.
James waited till he got plenty of steam then he whistled.
James: *whistles* I'm ready.
Gordon: *whistles* Ok
Gordon pushed and James pulled as they made their way up the hill.
Half way up their wheels slipped.
James: Oh god!
Gordon: Don't worry we'll do it!
They puffed their hardest at last they made it to the top of the hill.
James: *Whistles* Thanks Gordon bye!
Gordon: *Whistles* No probs, bye! Right lets get back to the sheds.
Rebecca: Ok.
So Gordon puffed to Tidmouth sheds.
A few minutes later Gordon pulled into Tidmouth sheds.
Thomas: Yo Gordon you're actually clean.
Gordon: *chuckles* yeah
Thomas: Did you manage to help James?
Gordon: Aye, I must admit we did struggle half way up but we managed in the end.
Thomas: Cool, well done Gordon.
Then the fat controller arrived.
Fat controller: Well done Gordon you managed to help James even though you two don't get along that well.
Gordon: Well its all in a days work sir
Thomas: Does that mean that Gordon can pull coaches again?
Fat controller: As long as you have a wash down daily then yes Gordon you may.
Gordon: Thanks sir
The fat controller left. Then James arrived.
James: Gordon I'm sorry I didn't listen to you, I'm glad you helped me.
Gordon: Its all in a days work James.
James smiled.
Gordon: And I'm sorry for blowing mud at you.
James: Its ok.
Gordon: I know this will sound boastful, dirty or clean I'm a famous machine.
Rebecca: I agree
Everyone laughed
Gordon learned that you don't have to be dirty to be useful
