Transforming steam

Last time on A Sudrian Transformation, after the events with their first encounter with the Decepitocns. Thomas and his fellow trainbots explained much they can to their fellow engines about everything that had happened to them while racing to meet and greet the new engines built with the help of The Steamworks and the Autobots as well. During this time the Decepticons still in the dark about to better approach the new trainbots Megatron ordered his Third in command Soundwave to spy on the Island. While Thomas receiving a message himself about the decepticon's movement and alerted everyone about the danger to only find Soundwave too close to sheds in Tidmouth, in an attempt to prevent the destruction of the sheds with four of his friends with it Thomas with engine light traction beam picked up the Decepticon while in Walkman mode and forced him clear out the other side of town reading his small army for an offence only to be overcome by the Autobots and Trainbots alike. As they were fleeing one of the smaller Decepticon decided to leave a deadly gift behind by blowing up the sheds and leaving not only four, but five engines seemingly nearly destroyed. A now determined Train prime is ready to find his engines in his friends, as the new Trainbots.

Now.

After the blast that took down the Sheds at Tidmouth, Thomas Optimus and their respective teams brought back the nearly destroyed engines to Trainbot base to create the next wave of trainbots. The other engines who are still running Gordon, Emily, The Scottish twins Donald and Douglas, Hiro, and Toby the steam tram combined their efforts to bring their battered friends to help restore them, but also in hopes they can find a way to become trainbots too. Thomas understand this and will wait until he will be given the instructions on giving the gift of transformation to the other engines. In order for Thomas to do this, he lets Optimus know he need a bit of time to seek knowledge from the Train Primes he need to find assail-elm to ask them in a meditated state. After he finds his spot, to allow his mind to be filled with information from the Train Primes of the past. Then one of them Explained how the gift is given.

Train Prime Past: "The gift of an engine into a trainbot must understand and follow the rules of being a trainbot. First and foremost is to never make any deals with the decepticons no matter how tempting the offer. Every trainbot must understand their roles no matter the engine class type. As a Train Prime your number one job is to come up a way to teach your fellow trainbots about important lessons if they want to continue to be the Trainbots of Sodor. Then these issues must be known to them and sworn to the understanding. If any fail in these rules, any engine who becomes a trainbot under the gift, will return back into the engine it was before the gift of transformation." Thomas wakes up from his mental state and returned to the repair hold to see some of the work done on the engines who were blown up. Came up to Optimus Prime and explained everything the Train Primes had just told him about the gift. Then both Primes find the other engines waiting for how they will be turned into trainbots, both Optimus and Thomas Stood before them and stated the terms for becoming Trainbots before the gift was given.

Thomas: "Listen up everyone, I just spoken to the Past Train Prime about how the gift is given. Each of you all must understand the rules and roles every one of you will be a part of if you want the gift to become the new Trainbots. Then you must all sworn your allegiance to the Trainbot cause or lose the gift and return to your duties as the engines you all are now. Are you all understanding terms given to you?" He waited to see anyone objecting the cause. The other engines understand that if they wanted to pay back the Decepticons they must learn to follow the way of the Trainbots then one by one the remaining engine spoke out.

Gordon: (Whistles) Poop, poop. " Of course, I will Thomas, after all our friendship will still stand. United we stand United we fall You help me and I will help you." Thomas glad to hear it from the big blue engine now turned to Emily.

Emily: "I agree to the terms Thomas, I will not rest or stop till the Decepticons are off our planet." Thomas liking to hear from the emerald engine now turns his attentions to the tram engine Toby.

Toby: "We will not let the Decepticons get away with this, so I also agree to the terms, so whatever the Train Primes have in mind in an old Steam tram like me, then I am all for it Thomas." Thomas could not help smiling at Toby then turns his attention to the Scottish Twins Donald and Douglas.

Donald: "Dun a fash yourself Thomas we be given those knuckled nu sense Decepticons the taste of Scotland in us."

Douglas: "So We too also accept the Trainbot terms, so we given them robotic pricks a thing or so." Thomas liking the tone of the twins finally turned to Hiro.

Hiro: "Thomas, I am honored to be part of this as well my friend. And I can show the one who looked like me, to know who the real master of the Railway truly be." After hearing that Thomas feels ready to perform the gift of transformation and reminds them of the terms and no going back on their sworn Allegiance to the Trainbot cause.

Thomas: "Then let us Begin by summing up the gift from the Prime matrix its self."

Thomas began concentrating his mind to summon the gift of transformation, with enough strength and energy he summoned the light to his friends. There everything from the trainbots history and knowledge in the matrix now flow through the minds of the other engines. During this time the base computers received the scans of the Engines who agree the Trainbot cause, to make the necessary changes possible. When everything is well said and done, after which the allied engines along with the newly repaired engines became aligned in front of everyone. It was at this time that Sir Topham Hat along with the young tank engines Amy, Brandon, and Dillon to see the changes of the older engines into the new trainbots.

Thomas "Everyone we still owe a lot to our friends the Autobots, to help us out now that the threat to our Island has increase. The only way now to keep the Decepticons at bay, is to increase the strength of our team. So we felt it was necessary for the assistance of our fellow engines to take part into the Trainbot cause, but to also give our fallen engines a chance to rise again to show Megatron and his Decepticons we here on the Island of Sodor will not back down from their cold heart-ed Demands of our home."

Optimus Prime: "In order for this to be possible, while we repaired the engines involved in the explosion of the sheds, Thomas took the time to learn everything from the Matrix of the Train Prime to perform the gift the engines who sworn into their new roles. And with our further dues let us turn to the New Trianbots of Sodor, to introduce themselves."

Everyone stepped back to watch each of the engines transform before everyone to see. Gordon who stood tall and strong had his tender seemed to split into two halves apart to extend to reveal his legs, His boiler split from just behind the smoke box to reveal a set of arms and hand as the legs flipped just under the framework, allowing the cab to split and folded behind as his shoulders to reveal a head popping up from the top of the firebox.

As they up righted her to stand Emily's boiler detached from behind the smoke box to reveal her arm which extended out to stretch the cab in half before folding behind to make her back as her head flipped up from where the cab once was and have that smoke box retracted back to become her torso making her windbreakers look like some sort of skirt extending from the smoke box then to reveal a weapon made out of her steam whistle.
Both Donald and Douglas transformations were similar to James and Edwards' except the entire tenders became the upper arms where the wheels flipped under to reveal their lower arms and hands with a pair of similar blasters and the cabs folded to be their backs.

All Autobots and original Trainbots are impressed about the new trainbots' turn out and hope everything within their team will go as planned. Then Optimus and Thomas signaled to the new Trainbots in order to voice out their expressions on becoming Trainbots.

Gordon: "I feel great, just great, great enough to turn those Decepticons around."

Henry: "Wow I never see the day I would become a Trainbot, just say the word Thomas and I will be there till the end."

James: "Wow look at me, I look more splendid than ever. Now I can give those Decepticons a taste of what this red engine would do."

Edward: "This is amazing Thomas, I feel like having a new lease on life."

Percy: "Look at me Thomas, I am a Trainbot now this is exciting my best, best, friend." Thomas just chuckled at his best friend's reaction.

Duck: " Amazing Oliver, now we both can be really useful Great Western engines on the field together." Oliver just had to laugh with is fellow Great Western friend.

Emily: "Wow Thomas I feel ready for the fight, just let me know what to do so we can give the Decepticons the what for."

Donald: "Yours saying it Emily, we'd best give those rotten minded Robots just what ye deserve."

Douglas: "Och eye Donnie, given them the boot is just what they been needed."

Toby: "I just hope to have enough fire power, to keep the Decepticons away."

Hiro: "Do not worry Toby, I am sure what have been given to you will be to your benefit, when the Decepticons decide to attack again." Then Optimus Prime and Thomas spoke.

Optimus Prime: "Now that you all have your new form it is time to test them out on the practice range and the combat simulator. Just at Thomas and the other Trainbots learn about their abilities, as well do you."

Thomas:" Come one my fellow Steamers, time to show us all what you are capable of. let us transforms and find out."

Now that the new trainbots have been found, time is now to see how each will hold up best during a battle. Both Autobots and Trainbots aided in the training session to help explained battle ta-ticks to help ensure the down fall of the Decepticons during a fight. Hiro, Gordon, and Henry found to be very strong and can handle a Decepticon, Optimus and Thomas both explained no matter how fair the Autobots and Trainbots would be in a fight, Decepticons have the tendency of fighting using dirty tricks to either divert the attention away for either a getaway, or a retaliation. The larger engines knowledge this and try some tactics of their own to counter back at the Decepticons. The Mid-size traffic engines are learning about their abilities, James have a reflective shield from one of his drive wheels and can use to reflect light to blind them or protect anyone near him from gunfire. the Scottish Twins learned that they are quick on the draw and learn how to unison their firing of their weapons to drive the enemy away. Edward even being an old engine now challenges himself to solve problems the Decepticons will create and learn of tactics to overcome Decepticons, however Thomas did remind his mentor how much more tactile the Decepticons are and will retaliate for any form of humiliation. Realizing what his young apprentice is now teaching his mentor what to expect from the Decepticons now to think ways of retreating if Edward finds himself nearly overpowered of any Decepticons.
The others continue to learn about their abilities through the training sessions because Toby is a Tram engine can hear more clearer sounds due to his quiet listening skills. Percy was shown by Bumblebee how to use his size to his behalf and how not let the Decepticons get to their nerves. Percy is taken his advice seriously to learn to overcome fear in order to deal with the Decepticons if they decide to create harm to anyone who is not made of metal. Oliver is helping Duck learn about his powers and finding out that Ducks whistle can have alternating pitches to shatter ear drums in a way Jazz uses his huge sound woofers to create sonic waves in a similar nature. Rosie Helps Emily get her bearings and learn how a little girl power can help bring a better balance to the fight.

Now the Trainbots look to be ready, will they be able to withstand the Decepticons with the next time they surface.
