Chapter 4:

Rebecca was walking in the town square, she wanted to find clothes for Alex and Bronze, who were hiding in the alleyways, "This is ridicules, why do we need new clothes?"

"Because Bee, like I told you about 8 times, we can't walk around town like this. People will try and kill us." Replied her quite annoyed twin sister, she was quite miserable and even more homesick. Soon Rebecca retuned with a couple of tee-shirts one blue, one green, a black skirt, a pair of baggy jeans, white socks and two pairs of white trainers. "Here you guys go; you will feel 100 times better." She smiled. Bronze put on the green tee shirt and the skirt, Alex put on the blue shirt and jeans. "How do I look?" Asked Alex, "More human." Rebecca smiled happily. Just then there was a commotion in the town. The girls went to check it out…

"Osiris! I'm so sorry."

"Callum I forgive you, now come on we gotta find the others!"

"Why can't we leave them?"

"Hannah, shut up!"

Alex and Bronze looked at each other, without warning Alex ran out and pulled Osiris, the others followed. "We will meet you at the sheds!" She called to the others.

A few hours later, after people stopped chasing them, Alex, Hannah, Callum and Osiris made it back to Tidmouth sheds. The other engines were waiting with Rebecca, all except Gordon. It was now getting late. "Thank god I found you guys." Panted Alex, Bronze hugged Osiris. "I'm so glad I found you sis!" she cried, Osiris hugged her back, "I'm just glad you guys are alright."

"Did you guys see anyone else?" wondered Callum, both Alex and Bronze shook their heads. "That's funny." Henry said "Cause I saw 3 others just a couple hours ago, I was at Wellsworth station..."

"I will be right back," and with that Alex ran back outside. It was midnight when she returned with Knuckles, Silver and Shadow. By this time the engines were asleep, Gordon and Thomas were the only ones awake. Thomas greeted Alex warmly but Gordon just grunted unhappily. "What's his problem?" asked Knuckles, Alex just shrugged, everyone was asleep in Percy's cab, Shadow and Silver joined them. Alex and Knuckles jumped into Thomas' cab, Knuckles fell asleep straight away but Alex couldn't. Her mind was stuck wondering why Gordon wasn't too friendly with them. All night she wondered, not able to sleep…
