Thomas was working on the main line for a maximum of five weeks after the Farquhar branchline closed for repairs. Thomas was not the smallest engine on the north western the smallest was Percy.
the biggest engine on the railway was Gordon he liked pulling the express but didn't care for some of his other jobs.
a goods train-A goods train- the shame of it-OH the shame of it. Gordon said.
oh Gordon it honestly can't be that bad? Thomas asked.
MEANWHILE IN EQUESTRIA.
twilight you've been working on that spell for three weeks when will you get it done? Twilights number one assistant asked in concern.
i am almost done spike. Twilight said but before she could get the final part of the spell added in the strangest thing happened. Twilights horn began to glow then she let out a yelp that was so loud that it sounded like a steam engines whistle going off.
TWILIGHT! Spike shouted. But before he could say a counter spell his surrogate mother disappeared.
MEANWHILE AT THE BRIGHTON WORKS.
(twilights point of view.)
There was a sound that I didn't know that was coming from the other side of the place I was in. I yelped and a lb&sc tender engine looked up. And smiled at me.
john: hello there I am Johnson but you may call me John. What's your name?
Twilight- twilight sparkle and I used to be a equine alicorn. I said.
john was surprised you mean you used to be an equine royalty? He asked.
i said. Yes.
well then let's get you steamed up your grace. He said. Shyly. Fluttershy would have loved him.
where am I going to work at since I am obviously a tank engine. I said. Oh you will be working on my railway as my new tank engine. A voice to my right said.
whoa. I yelped and acciedentlly bumped into some trucks who said in annoyance.
oi give it a rest. They chanted. But when they started to tease me they soon learned never mess with a former princess of Equestria.
hold back lads. The first truck said. But I biffed him into his brothers.
no nonsense. I said. Or I shall rip you apart like Oliver did to scruffy. I threatened.
they soon stoped.
when I arrived at knaphord station which I thought was just the name of the town. I meat a red tender engine.
excusse me but can you tell me where knaphord is? I asked the red engine.
but this is knaphord where are you from? James asked.
brighton on the mainland. I replied.
(end of twilights point of view)
(normal point of view.)
edward gasped. The new engine for Thomas's branchline.
edward could hardly belive his eyes the new engine had six small wheels, a short stumpy dome, a short stumpy boiler and a short stumpy funnel.
thats why I have always wanted to be here. Uh engine said in a feminine voice. Is something wrong do I have soot on my face? She asked.
no it's well your not a big engine. Edward said.
yes I am. Twilight snapped.
no your not. James said.
(muttering under her breath) well I was big enough to do my work on the main land.( adds under her breath) and EQUESTRIA. Twilight said.
wait all I meant was your not as big as I am. Edward said.
i may not be as big as you but I am very hard working and I can handle trucks and coaches all the same. She replied. I have a little song I sing and it keeps the trucks from causing trouble.
this is the song she sang.
twilight:(singing) when I was little the darkness would often make me frown.
tell me she's not? James asked.
twilight:(still singing) and the shadows would make me feel all down.
she is. Edward said.
twilight:(still singing) but daddy said that wasn't the way to deal with fears at all.
truck one: then what is?
twilight:(singing) he said twilight you got to stand up tall learn to face your fears you'll see that they can't hurt you just laugh and make them dissappear. Ha-ha-ha.
twilight and the trucks:(singing) SO giggle at the ghosty,chortle at the spooky, crake up at the creepy. And tell that ugly fear to go away and he will leave you alone at the very thought of just(laughing). Laugh.
Soon the trucks where all lined up in two trains headed to to different directions.
well I see you did your best in get these yard organized. The fat controller said.
well thank you sir organized is my middle name twilight organized sparkle. Twilight said.
ha-ha. Good tomorrow you will go to the steamworks to have a new coat of paint.
thank you sir. Twilight said. And puffed away.
at tidmouth sheds there was another tank engine like her.
thomas looked up and saw the most beautiful thing next to the magic railway puffing into the berth next to him.
thomas: hello I am thomas.
twilight: and I am twilight the new tank engine to help on your branchline and the mainline.
how are you enjoying sodor twilight so far? Edward said.
sodors a grand place to be but I want to see the world. Twilight said.
gordon groaned.
you will have to get used to shunting cars and coaches twilight. Said Emily.
oh I will get the hang of shunting Emily. Twilight said. But all the same this is just like my previous life back where I am from. She added.
where you are from? James asked in confusion.
I am from another dimension entirely and became a tank engine completely by acciedent. She said. The other engines burst out laughing, all except one.
(whistles) ENOUGH that is no way to treat the princess of equestria. Thomas shouted by acciedent.
(gasps) the other engines where shocked.
Well then your highness. Said Percy. What type of engine are you?
oh-ho-ha-ho. Laughed twilight. I am still not used to being called your highness. But I think I am in the exact same class of tank engine like Thomas.
AN E2 TANK ENGINE! The others shouted.
yes. twilight said but then shushed them with here thick Scottish accent. huald yer whesshed here come yon controller.
the next day sir topham hatt sent twilight to the steam works to have a coat of paint for her choice.
hello,victor said. who are you?
I am twilight sparkle. twilight said.
so what type of paint would you like? victor asked.
lavender and magenta please. was the reply.
soon she was on her way toward wellsworth when she heard a engine whistling.
?:HELP,HELP THERE PUSHING ME THERE PUSHING ME!.
Douglas twilight shouted.
farther down the line a dear was grassing the grass by the track Gordon was on the opposite line when he heard.
whaaahhhh! Douglas screamed. oh dear help, help, help?
on-on-faster. the trucks said laughing.
I dinnae wannae go any faster. Douglas shouted.
(Douglas's breaks caught on fire.)
Douglas: me breaks noo stoop, I wannae stoop!
Douglas: whoa twilight?
use your brakes, use your brakes! twilight shouted.
I Cannae, me breaks are oon fire there made of wood. Douglas replied.
I'm going to try to couple up behind you Douglas, I'm going to try to slow you down. she said.
she shouted to the guard. couple me up, couple me up I need to slow Douglas down. she shouted.
uh, right. the guard replied.
oh no try again, try again. Twilight said.
we mustn't give up we have to try. She said.
twilight yelps and tries to catch up.
faster-faster. The guard said.
whaaaah! Douglas screamed as he continued on and on.
then he saw something that made his boiler run cold. Crosby bend was dead ahead.
whaaaaaaaahaah! Screamed Douglas.
no twilight shouted.
i'm going off the rails. Douglas shouted, och ah oh.
whoa dear. The trucks said.
hungnah. Twilight groaned to a stop when the dust settled she gasped. Douglas had derailed and was on his side with a cow looking at him.
thomas was right cars can run an engine right off the rails. Twilight said. Don't worry Douglas stay their I will go and get help.
edward , Thomas and his coaches where in knaphord with sir topham hatt when twilight rushed into the yards.
was that twilight? The fat controller asked.
wake up-wake up, emergency. She stated.

jerome, judy said.

right, Jerome said.
we're ready, Judy stated.
CREW UP, JEROME SHOUTED.
twilight where do you think your-? The fat controller shouted.
sorry sir but this is an emergency. Twilight said.
back at the bend near Crosby station twilight was hard at work pushing the re-railed trucks away.
oh dear-go gently- go gently. They said.
i hope this will teach you troublesome trucks a lesson. Twilight said.
do you have Douglas at the front there Judy? Jerome asked.
yes Jerome, ready to lift. Replied Judy.
me too, jerome said lets go.
whoa? Oh, Douglas said nervously.
your alright, heh your alright. Jerome said.
we've got you. Judy said.
at last Douglas was back on the rails sir topham hatt had come to make sure everyone was alright.
well done twilight now can you take Douglas to the steamworks do you know the way? He asked.
yes sir, I do sir it's where I was painted lavender and magenta. She replied.
ha-ha-ha that's right. The fat controller chuckled.
Later at tidmouth sheds the other engines where there to congratulate twilight on the a job well done.
good job twilight today you really where the best engine. Edward said.
och aye, agreed Donald, what ye did was terrific.
really useful that's what I think. Said sir topham hatt. Douglas shall have new breaks, a bit of repair here and there and a new coat of paint and you twilight due to your bravery and selfless act of heroism have shown your self worthy of having your own branchline.
my own branchline? Said a shocked twilight.
that's not all. Said a unfamiliar voice.
and a bright light suddenly shown causing everyone to shield their eyes. When it had stopped there to twilights amazement where here friends and princess's celestia, Luna and cadence along with prince shining armor.
twilight sparkle element of magic, I knew you could do it. Celestia said.
but how did you know where I was? Twilight asked confused.
it was your assistant spike who informed us of your dissaperence but I can see that you have made new friends and have really earned this, and I am sure that everyone can agree that twilight is a really useful engine and princess of friendship. Celestia responded.
thank you princess I won't let you nor sir topham hatt down that's for sure. She stated. But before anyone could say anything Gordon asked something that caused everyone to start laughing.
But sir who will fetch our coaches? Some of us aren't meant to shunt. Gordon stated.
before the fat controller could say anything it was Thomas who spoke first.
i don't know Gordon perhaps you should fetch your own until sir topham hatt can buy another small engine like twilight. He said. Cheekily.
but- but. Gordon started to protest. The others where laughing.
the next day twilight and rainbow her pony driver along with Thomas saw an engine puff into the yards that they hadn't seen before.
Douglas: Ahem.
douglas is that you? Twilight asked.
och aye twilight, heh-heh how do ye think aboot me new paint work? He asked.
Wow Douglas you look splendid. Thomas said.
Aye know, I'm ready for me coaches. Douglas said.

yes and she even has here own branchline too. Said Martha.
off to see the world twilight? Thomas asked.
yes Thomas I am. Twilight said.
