Transform the Engines
Last time, Thomas the tank engine and two of his friends Rosie and Oliver gunned down by the Decepticons while trying to protect them and Sir Topham Hat the controller. In an attempt of escaping the onslaught, the three engines were blown off the track by the Decepticon Starscream and his armada. In an attempt to save them Optimus Prime offered Sir Topham Hat to restore his engines by performing a transformation on them. "Do not worry, we will do all we can for your engines sir." STH. " Do what you must as long as it means to have my engines back especially my number 1 Thomas."
Presently.
OP. "We will do what we can for them Sir, I Optimus Prime promise you that."
STH. "I will come with you to see how it goes, But I will have to let my wife and engines know what has happened and where I will be going. Also, I need to allow for you to come with me to the sheds, so the other engines know what is going on."
OP. "Very well sir, I will escort you to the shed before the return for the trip to our base with your engines." Transforms into his semi-truck mode and rolled along with Sir Topham Hat.
Optimus and Sir Topham Hat stopped by a nearby signal man to bring an order for the engines back to Tidmoth sheds for a briefing. When the others returned to the sheds they noticed that three of them are missing, and that worried some of the engines about there were abouts.
Percy. "Where is Thomas, he is usually back when there is an important announcement."
Duck. "And I do not see Oliver nor Rosie neither I just hope they are all right."
It just at that moment Sir Topham Hat along with Optimus Prime in truck mode appeared in front of the Sheds looking very concerned, the engines saw this and wanted to know what is wrong.
STH. " I have some news to tell you all, first of all I would like to introduce you all to someone." He turned to Optimus Prime to signal him for his introduction,
transforms from truck into robot mode, surprising the engines just as Sir Topham Hat cued Optimus.
OP." Greetings everyone I am Optimus Prime leader of an alien race of robots called the Autobots. My army and I were defending your Island against our enemy known as the Decepitcons at the coaling plant today. During that moment three of your fellow engines were involved of the incident, your number 1 engine just finishing his last delivery to the plant, the other two engines also happened to be there when the Decepticons decided to help themselves to the coal at the coaling plant. However I Ordered some of my Autobots to follow Thomas, Oliver, and Rosie with their escape from the fighting when they were perused by one of the triple changer Decepticons Astrotrain and try to use your controller for a bargaining offer, Thomas and the others confronted the engine who ended to let go of your controller with help of the Autobots attempt to protect Thomas the other engines and your controller escape only to have Thomas, Oliver and Rosie get blown up to near death."
The other engines were shocked and frightened they are about the news about Thomas Oliver and Rosie.
Percy. "Oh No! Thomas."
Duck. "Oliver and Rosie too. Not good at all."
OP. "We Autobots will attempt to restore your friends back with an experiment that I hope will be successful, even if it means a transformation of their structures in the process."
STH. "I will be leaving until I know the results of Thomas Oliver and Rosie, until then do what you can to keep things running while I am away." And with that he and Optimus Prime who transformed back into a truck and allowed for Sir Topham Hat to ride in him back to Skyfire who was waiting for them at Airport.
The trip back to the base was uneventful and during the trip Sir Topham Hat learned from the Autobots about their rivalry with the decepticons, the war, and the search for new fuel resources to restore their planet. Sir Topham Hat explained much about his railway the history and how every engine plays a role in how everything is run. As they neared the entrance of the now Volcano Arc they were greeted by three other Humans Sparkplug, Spike Witwiki, and Chip Chase who was wheel chaired bound and was surprised to see some familiar looking engines with the Autobots.
Chip. "Is that who I think it is? Could it be?'
Bumblebee. "Who is that Chip?'
Spike. "Hey that is Thomas the tank engine and Oliver the Great Western engine. But who is the pink engine?"
(Keep in mind that I am using the 80 s transformers and Rosie the pink engine was not even mentioned in the railway series.)
Sparkplug." I guess we will have to find out." Just as he said that Sir Topham Hat walked towards the three people and explained who he is and who the three engines are and why they are hear. The three others understand and promise they will help along with the Autobots to restore Thomas, Oliver and Rosie.
Soon everyone got to work, they quickly computer scans of the three engines to help find ways to restore them and to make the necessary changes in case the Decepticon ever attempt to return to Sodor in the future.
In the meantime, Sir Topham Hat was explained all that was going on about the engines and how the three humans Sparkplug, Spike and Chase got to know the Autobots and how often they help the war effort. Sir Topham Hat was impressed and continued observing the outcome.
Before long, it was time to see how the repairs went the transformations as well. He (STH) stood along with the other humans and the Autobots to hear it from Ratchet, Wheeljack, Hoist, and Perceptor.
Ratchet. "Optimus Prime Autobots Friends and especially our guest Sir Topham Hat, we like to introduce to you all the new Thomas the Tank engine, Oliver the Great Western engine and Rosie the pink engine. Engines transform and introduce yourselves." He stepped back to show three familiar looking engines to suddenly transforming into robots before everyone including Sir Topham Hat.
He (STH) was amazed how his engines looked like now as transforming engines.
Thomas' face did not show on his smoke box but his funnel where it looked split. his water tanks were his wings where is number 1 is shown, the cab, boiler was split to reveal his shoulders and arms his smoke box was his torso, and his frame slid down to reveal his legs and his whistle is now being held in his hand.
Oliver's cab and sides were also split where in the middle his head arose from the inside cab to the top. The split cab become his chest and his side tanks become his shoulders and arms folded out from beneath the tanks. like Thomas his smoke box became his Torso, and his Frame extended to reveal his legs and his funnel was removed from the top of the smoke box and ended up behind his back as looking like a bazooka.
Rosie had a more feminine look Like the others her cab was split allowing a cute freckled face emerged from inside of the cab, her side tanks ended up becoming her shoulders and arms extended from underneath her boiler actually turned on its side to become her chest with her smoke box for her torso giving her a female figure, her frame also extended to reveal her legs and her funnel was removed from her smoke box to her hand as a long rifle.
Sir Topham Hat could not believe that he was seeing his own engines like this and wanted to make sure they are, so he asked the Autobot permission to speak to them, in which they allowed.
STH. "Thomas, Oliver, and Rosie. Is it really you, are you all right and Do you remember who I am?" The engines looked to each other before Thomas gave a familiar chuckle for Sir Topham Hat to know.
Thomas. "Ha. ha. Of course, it is Sir, we are fine, we are just amazed about the changes the Autobots made to us and had to explained to us what they did to fix us back to continue on serving you back on Sodor sir."
Oliver. "Not to worry sir, it is still us your engines."
Rosie. "And we still call Sodor home, no matter where we go."
Sir Topham Hat was relieved that his engines were indeed still alive and still willingly to be really useful engines. He is concerned on how to care for them, and proper to repair them if they ever needed maintenance for their work. Sir Topham Hat turned to the Autobots. "I am grateful that you restored my engines but what can I do to maintain them.
Wheeljack. "Not to worry, we attend to return to sodor to find an appropriate place to set up for your new Trainbots, for their living conditions on the Island
to return whenever they ever finished with their work there."
Prowel. "In the mean time we will find an area where your engines will test and train in case the Decepticons ever return to the Island and cause even more problems.
Sir Topham Hat did stop to think about the Decepticons for a moment and realized that it would be a lot safer if Thomas, Oliver, and Rosie learned how to defend themselves if the Decepitcons ever returned to the Island for any of their resources and vehicles at the Sodor Search and rescue center are not equipped for combat so Sir Topham Hat nodded and agreed to let the Autobots return to Sodor in helping the engines defeat the Decepticons if they returned.
"Very well then Autobots, we will search the Island for possible place were Thomas, Oliver and Rosie reside."
Optimus Prime. "One more thing Sir Topham Hat, Your Number 1 Engine Thomas is also equipped with a special item called the matrix of leadership of the train Primes. Therefore, you may still call him Thomas, to us he will be known to us as Opthomas Prime. Leader of a new group known as the Trainbots of Sodor."
Sir Topham Hat was impressed but wanted to know the purpose for this matrix so Prime explained. " In the event that other engines may want to engage in helping with the war effort on your Island, Thomas has the ability to use the matrix to make other engine into trainbots. Whenever any power-driven locomotives ever become endangered by the decepticons he will hear their voices of plea and give them the ability to transform, but only if the engine in question will agree to the trainbot cause, in rebelling against those who would creating harm either for engine, or human kind." STH was listening and is amazed about Thomas's new role not only as this Trainbot but a Train Prime as well.
OP. "I will continue to help Thomas understand what he needs to do now he is being trained to become a prime. He must Learn the role so he can learn about becoming a Trainbot, about his matrix and its history where it came from, how to convince his fellow engines to join in the cause, and we will have a way to link your Island to our base here on earth in case you or your engines need contact us to have your questions answered."
Relieved Sir Topham Hat, agreed to the terms about allowing the Autobot to return to Sodor now and then, to help out Thomas and the others if they ever needed advice or anything else if they ever needed the help. " Thank you, Optimus Prime, I will do what I can to ensure you Autobots to help my engines and help you out in return if you ever needed backup from Thomas and the others for help."
OP. "Thank you Sir Topham Hat sir. you won't regret this."
Soon it will be time for Thomas and the others to return to Sodor for their new lives at Trainbots, Thomas will continue to be taught by Optimus Prime about how to use his powers to help out others either on Sodor and beyond. The other three Humans Sparkplug, Spike, and Chip and the other Autobots also like this arrangement because they can now visit two locations and not just one. In time they will learn from each other learn combat together to test their skills in a simulation chamber that the Autobots set up for the engines. And the engines explained how their jobs are done around the Island. Time can only tell if Thomas and the other new Trainbots earn their title.
Till Next Time
