Here's Chapter 1 enjoy :) may have sadness so get some tissues :'( thank you.

Chapter 1.

It was a dark and dreary day on the Island of Sodor. The clear blue sky was replaced by gray and puffy black clouds hung nonchalantly like rain was about to hit any minute; sure enough, one, two, three drops came down until water was hitting the ground followed by some thunder that sounded like an earthquake. Nobody was on the streets for they were in their homes miserable for what had happened.

At Tidmouth Sheds, the steam engines, known as Thomas, James, Percy, Gordon, Emily, Henry, and Toby looked over at the empty space where Sodor's #2 also known as Edward, once stood. They all looked mournfully at each-other as Percy started to whimper; soon, tears cascaded down his cheeks while Thomas tried to calm him down. He couldn't blame him though being the youngest of the engines really took a toll on him asking questions and wanting to get some answers but that one frightening word was something that he really didn't like to hear.

Henry looked at it tensely not even blinking his eyes. They were slowly closing as a tear drop slowly slid down. "Edward... Why did it have to be this way? I wish you were still here. It didn't need to end so suddenly." He sighed out. Sir Topham Hatt was seen walking up to the steam team as he had his hands behind his back. "Henry, I need for you to deliver some important packages over to Knapford; for the mail-man's truck has broke down and he is unable to make it there could you do that for me please?" "But sir, isn't that Percy's job?" He asked looking over at #6 who just couldn't keep his sad state hidden. "Percy will stay here and rest for today. But I need you to do this Henry please?" "Yes Sir." He said in barely of a whisper not wanting for him to hear his voice that was cracking due to him about to break down but kept strong as his driver chugged off not even saying bye to the other trains and besides, he wanted to be alone. They looked after him with sadden faces; they all knew, that from a few months that Henry had fallen in love with Edward and their relationship had grew very much.
