Happy Birthday Thomas

It has been a wonderful week on the Island of Sodor, the sudrian teens have celebrated another special Memorial Day with their American Friends along with VE day. Everyone involved in that remembers it too well since everyone of them had a part to play in the ending of the Second world war. Everyone except for Thomas has been requested to meet up with STH for a special event. While Thomas went down to the Cattleman's cabin to check in on his herd, as everyone else had gathered in the dining hall with the main six and the ponies from Equestria as the controller announces his quest.

STH. "Good morning to you all."

Everyone else. "Good morning sir!"

STH. "Right, first off I like to announce that it is Thomas's birthday today."

Twilight Sparkle. "His Birthday, I did not know that engines had birthdays. I thought only organic creatures are entitled to a birthday now and then. Engines however I find it interesting to see how a birthday for engines are to be about."

STH. "Technically it is actually the day he first came to life as an engine before he ever came to Sodor Twilight. Since he is human now and at the time, he became human he was 15 at the time when it happened. Since then we find it for today is his 17th birthday and we wish to give him a special surprise party for him. That is why I have asked for you ponies to help make this special occasion." Everyone was excited and are wanting to give their friend a special birthday since he had been there for everyone of them since their own humanization almost two years ago. Rosie was also excited; she was not here at the time when Thomas had a surprise on a winter holiday after clearing the track from snow. She has heard it from Thomas and the others about how they proceeded with the decorations with out letting him know all about it and how sad Thomas felt about being left out for such an event he did not know for what it was for then she spoke up.

Rosie. "Um, sir would it be alright that I spend the day with Thomas so he can have a distraction while all of this is under way? This way he cannot know of what is going on since he does not like to be left out of anything important. Even if the even should let him know how important he is the rest of us."

Twilight. "Why don't Flash and I go with you? Since we hardly ever visited the rest of the Island since we started coming here for high School with you."

Flash. "I can go with that."

Trent dimes. (ten Cents) "I know I can help you lot with a tour around the Island, that could allow for each of us to learn more about the Island along its coast."

Fluttershy. "Excuse me but um. Who will be here to help organize the timing of the party while you are off giving Thomas tours around the Island?"

STH. "That is why I am here Fluttershy, I know you ponies are used to twilight help organize how everything goes to make it perfect no matter what occasion you are planning. I would like for applejack and Pinky Pie, to work with the ladies who make the foods here when you make your party platters."

Pinky Applejack, Rebecca, and Emily. "Yes sir!"

SHT. "Right now I need for someone who can help decorate the pole barn." Percy, Pinky James, Rarity, Ariel, and Eric raised their hands to volunteer for that task. "Thank you, Pinky, Percy, James, Rarity, Ariel and Eric. I hope you know how to make it festive for Thomas to enjoy for his special day?"

Ariel. "I know we will, I am his sister after all, and since reuniting with him almost two years now has made me more keen of what will blow my brother's mind off when we comes home for his surprise Sir."

STH. "Excellent, Wyatt I know you are new to this, but I hope you can lend in on this surprise we plan for Thomas. I assume that your cousin Holly has brought you up to date as to how everything goes around here."

Wyatt. "As mush as she can remember since her own arrival on the Island sir, and even when she can't that is when Edward helps fill in the gaps of any conversation we discuss."

Edward. "That is right Sir."

STH. "Right, everyone else do what you can to help Thomas while getting everything ready for his special day."

Sometime after the meeting Thomas was still out on his horse Nugget range riding to make sure nothing will come to hurt his herd and keeps an eye out for new developments in the herd. Down the trails was Jasper, Jessica, Mavis, and Toby to help take over the range riding to help ensure Thomas can venture with Rosie, Twilight, Flash and Trent on a boat tour of the Island. Although Thomas knows much of the shore near his home, he never really thought about the other part of the Sudrian Coast since he spent most of his life as an engine and has little time to see the rest of the Island by boat Cruise.

Toby. "Thomas! Oh Thomas!" Thomas turns himself and nugget to the direction of where Toby was calling him from to see what he wanted.

Thomas. "Oh, hello Toby and everyone, what is going on."

Jessica. "Thomas Rosie and Trent have a special surprise for you."

Thomas. "OH, really what is it?"

Jasper. "She along with Twilight Sparkle and Flash Sentry are taking a trip along the Sudrian Coastline for a tour all the way around the Island."

Thomas. "Really, that sounds like fun, and I guess you are all here to keep watch over the herd while I am away with Rosie?"

Mavis. "That is right, while you and Rosie are away, we will look over everything to the best of our ability."

Toby. "I am sure you can count on us right Thomas?"

Thomas. "Of course, Toby, well after I put nugget away, I will be meeting with her on the lagoon docks." Then he rode away with Nugget as his friends turned on their horses to say.

Toby, Mavis, Jessica, and Jasper. "Have fun Thomas!"

Thomas rode all the way back to the barn and taken off Nugget's gear before releasing him to the yard and placed the gear on Nugget's area of the tack barn. Then managed to change his clothes and freshen up before meeting with his girlfriends and the two friends from Equestria for their day on the water during the time Everyone else was hurrying to make the place good enough for Thomas's surprise party. Then as Rosie, Trent, Shawn Brightly, (Sunshine) Twilight and Flash gathered around the golden star, waiting until they all have seen Thomas came into view to make sure they all have seen him before they all took off without him. Rosie turned and cannot help but to smile and decided to hide a special gift after learning about that today of all days was her boyfriend's Birthday. She decided to give it to him after finding the perfect spot to give him. Then she eyes Thomas as he made his decent to their direction as both boy and girl came together for a loving hug and a special kiss to help make the voyage start on the right mood.

Rosie. "Hello, my handsome Thomas, ready for a day out on the water today?"

Thomas. "that I am my Rosie Rose, and who's vessel are we taking for this voyage around the Island today?"

Trent, "Mine Thomas, you can relax and so will True Blue, while Shawn and I will allow our Golden Star to be the tour cruise for today."

Thomas. "Thank you, Trent, you too Shawn."

Shawn. "No problem Thomas, well we are ready to set sail everyone, come aboard."

Twilight Sparkle. "Ooh, I have been looking forward to the since our first arrival."

Flash. "Me too, maybe there are somethings left about this Island that has yet to be discovered yet."

"". "I Do not think that will be the issue this time Flash." Everyone turned around and sees Cassey Tallshalley come down and see if he can be of some assistance on this tour.

Trent. "Cassey, no time no see buddy." The two came together and shook hands before everyone set off.

Cassey. "I decided to come down and bring in a bit of the Island's history since it is a topic, I needed to learn all about this land we are on."

Twilight. "I am always eager to learn new things even if I have never thought about the history of another place besides that of Equestria."

Cassey. "That is why I decided to come, in case any of you ever come across anything along the way that you may have raised questions to."

Everyone agreed to let Cassey come along and be part of this Voyage cruise along with doodle Loo for the fun of the tour.

While all of this was going on everyone was hard at work making sky blue decorations that will bring on a huge smile on Thomas's face when he sees it, along with everyone make the necessary invitations to their friends in the international house who were eager to help out too. Gina and Ashima came over to bring in a series of pizzas. Emily, Molly, Rebecca, Applejack, and Holly helped placed the platters of food arrangements at the banquet table. Pinky Pie, Ariel, Percy, and James helped bring in a huge birthday cake all sky blue with the number 17th on the side and a number 1 on the top of the cake. Duck, Oliver, Donald and Douglas helped bring in the sound system and Carlos and Karmen bring in some Latin Music and other forms of music to help bring in a bit of Zest-a to the mix.

Carlos. "Here Duck I have some good fiesta music for this festive day."

Duck looked over the music that Carlos had presented to him and approves the selection for the party. "Oh, these will work nicely for today Carlos and Karmen, Thank you."

Then the Narrow-gauge boys had arrived to see if they can lend in a hand on decorating for the party. The Cutie Mark Crusaders had just noticed them as they were about to set up a banner for when on cue they unravel the banner when the time was right.

Apple Bloom was the first to noticed them. "Hey everyone, coming over to lend a hand with us."

Luke. "Oh, you bet, after what Thomas had done for me when I thought I had caused Victor to go to the scrap yard because I wanted to go first. He went all out of his way even risking getting in trouble with the controllers about why he did not work on his branch line for a while. Taking that time to learn what really happened and the controller did say what really happen, is what really matters and since then I feel even more alive now out and about from my engine shell."

Skarlowey. "I must have admitted that I was too harsh on my judgement about what he did and thought he had betrayed us. Now we realized how silly we were in not trusting in Thomas to learn the truth about Victor and Luke here."

Rheneas. "And becoming a yellow engine just to let Thomas to know of where to find the yellow engine that he had been looking for."

Them Molly came up. "Are you sure you had the right Yellow engine, because there was just one Yellow engine on the railway and that would have been me."

Then Rebecca came up. "And that was long before I came to the Island as yellow as some say like a twinkie on the rails." Everyone laughed.

At this time the boat tour with Thomas and Rosie had found themselves in front of a reminder of a time long gone about a time that Thomas, Rosie, Trent, and Shawn know too well. The remains of a harbor that was destroyed during World War 2. It was the destroyed area of Norramaby harbor that was bombed during the blitzes across Great Britain were so many lives were loss because of a sick man who could not even bare the arms of conducting the dirty deeds himself. He let his followers to perform the darkest times since the black death.

Rosie. "Wow, so this is the result of the bombings of the Blitz on that day."

Thomas. "Yeah, the most brutal times the world have ever seen, only the Black death can be traced back to bacteria stricken rodents who carried them to people's homes where they thought of blocking it outside would allow it to over pass, only to find half of Europe's Populations had fallen because of it."

Trent. "It is because of that time when my fleet and I had to travel across the English Channel to get here during that time, we would have not known what life we are to have here."

Doodle Loo made snap shots of the place to document the looks of what happens when one man turned out to be the evilest of all human beings to create such an inhumane act across humanity.

Twilight and Flash are disturbed about what they are witnessing.

Twilight. "Oh. Look at this place, I heard there were places on this Island where the remains of the last world war left in its wake. I never realized just how brutal and heart breaking it could get."

Flash. "All of this and none of the Germans ever learned of what their leader was up to."

Cassey. "That was at a time when the technology of the time was still in its infantry, Radar was first used for the Us on Honolulu Hawaii, where the Japanese launched an attack on Pearl Harbor that allowed for the US to be part of the war even if some of them are to take on the Allies that included the German war machine in the process."

Thomas. "Both Frieda and Gina told me that they were not to fond of that era, they had to witness so man lives destroyed for crimes they knew was unjustified. They however had no choice, if they refused any order from these countries during the war, they were threatened with scrap-page if they did not comply."

Rosie. "I am glad that they had to regain their rolls in their countries after the war had long time ended. Even after that, there were more problems once the war was over, too many people had lost their homes during the shelling the towns and cities the where from."

Thomas. "I know the massive amounts of brutality of refugees was shown how horrid the rest of Europe had become, although I cannot blame them on the soldiers, they were following order blindly. The citizens on the other hand had worse just of the nature of the circumstances their leaders had done under their citizens noses."

Shawn. "I am glad that many people had come along better, on most occasions."

Trent. "Well for the most part, that is until you meet up with these rude people who did not know too much about the years prior to their arrival on this world we call home. It still strikes me odd of now many can still become so arrogant especially of all the goings on all over the world."

Thomas. "As much I would like to meet up with everyone who loved us just after learning about us from the books that the Reverend had written about. About the many escapades of everyone of us while doing our duties for the sake of our railway."

Rosie. "Even now I still shutter if I ever hear a bomb going off, I may have gotten used to gun fire during our hunts when go to the Scottish Hunters Lodge, but when it comes to bombs I still get nervous."

Thomas wrapped his arm around Rosie to help calm her nerves after looking at the destroyed harbor for the fist time and realized it could be a new construction sight for something else. "Maybe we can see if the controller can find a way to make this area better than it looks right now. Once we get back, I can ask him of what he has planned for the Harbor? Until then you are safe with me my love and hope we can make this better for everyone to use and enjoy for a while."

Rosie now feeling better knows she can rely on Thomas to keep her safe from dark times, no matter of what. "Thank you Thomas I love you."

Thomas. "I love you too, my lovely Rosie Rose." They both finished it off with a kiss before realizing the time.

Rosie. "Oh, my Look at the time everyone, I believe this will be a good time to end the tour wouldn't you thinks so too Thomas?" Thomas checked his watch realizing they are a bit late returning to port.

Thomas. "Yes, I suppose you are right." Then turns to both Trent and Shawn. "Alright you two it is best we turn sail back to the homestead's lagoon port."

Trent and Shawn. "Eye, Eye Sir." Then turned the boat around to make way back to the lagoon and the homestead.

Still embraced in each other's hold decided to give each other a lovely kiss to singled of how lucky there are since that awful time and had become the best of the Sudrian couples, although they never say it out loud.

Twilight and Flash watching the whole thing between Rosie and Thomas made them to embrace each other that signaled their feeling for each other too. To the point of Flash kissing Twilight on her neck just as she twirled her head around for her and flash kiss each other on the lips.

Back in the pole barn everyone was getting excited, and hopes the day went well without a hitch. Even Natalie and Beverly came over to make sure they are there to meet up with their fellows from the sea. The Billintons and the Heartmans had arrived with Sally, Chad, and little Carter now 18 months old and is already excited about meeting with the friendliest face he has known since his birth.

Rebecca. "Ooh, I am so excited, cannot wait to see the look on Thomas's face once he come in as we say surprise to him."

Percy. "At least it was better than that snow day when he was left out of our planning of a surprise for him on that winter day."

Pinky Pie. "Not to mention on how Twilight had look like when we gave her that surprise party when she first came to Pony ville."

Applejack. "It was the first time we all met up with twilight, since it was at the time the Summer sun festival back before we managed to release Princess Luna from being Nightmare Moon and thus allowing for our good friend Twilight to stay in the town as she studied what the magic of friendship is all about."

Rarity. "I must say that both she and Thomas has a lot in common, she becomes the star of our land while Thomas works his way up to earn his own branch line and become the focus of so many children across the world. Not to mentions of how they managed to help out what the meaning of what friendship is all about darlings."

Edward. "I admit that I may have a hand in helping him to be a better engine from the good old days. Even now he still does all he can to do the best he can. No matter how many tend to make him look like."

Percy. "I have seen how many people can make him look like a mindless fool, just because he has his cheeky side. But Thomas does his best to keep his Cheekiness under control."

Gordon. "Even I can attest for that, he can be cheeky, but I know that he is not malicious. Not even during his watch of how the television series made him look since they made us in CGI."

Henry. "The television series and the Railway series had it wrong of why I was in that tunnel, and I did not spend it that long being bricked up. I had to protect my passengers from the bombs the Nazis were littering across the landscape of what was know to us as the Blitz of Sodor."

Fluttershy. "You mean that is the reason of why you were in that tunnel and it is not because they made that rhyme about you and the rain."

Henry. "I was told by the Reverend that he had to summon the reason to make it less scary to the children who wanted to be relieved from that time of war. When the war was ending at that time."

James. "We were all busy at that time that we hardly knew anything about the books until Thomas had learned about it when he brought home a troop train back to Knapford Station one day."

Ariel. "That was in the past James, a lot has happened, and it was mostly for the better."

Lady. "Since then we managed to bring a bit more magic to the Island with our adventures even now as we venture as humans."

Before long the Crusaders have spotted Thomas, Rosie, Trent, Shawn, Twilight Sparkle, and Flash Sentry walking the path to the homestead, both they and the Narrow-gauge boys got everyone's attention.

Scoot a Loo. "Hey everyone, our guest or shall we say our host of honor is coming up this way with everyone else."

STH. "Alright everyone takes your positions and get ready for the word." Everyone saluted the controller just as everyone outside has come up to the Pole barn to see it shut. Everyone else knew of what is going on but Thomas was puzzled.

Thomas. "Now what is this, the pole barn is usually open. Why is it shut closed now?"

Everyone smiles to know of why, but they prefer to give him some hints of what is going on.

Rosie. "Well Thomas the real reason for the sea tour was to keep you occupied so everyone else wanted to do something for you."

Thomas was taken about a special event taking place today. "Really, then what is the reason you wanted for me to accompany you on that tour?"

Twilight. "Why not open the doors and see Thomas? You may be surprised to know of what is going on." Then everyone proceeded to open the two barn doors when everyone turned on the lights as the group with Thomas had entered the barn.

Everyone inside of the barn along with Thomas's company. "Surprise! HAPPY BIRTHDAY THOMAS!" Thomas could not believe his eyes, everyone was wishing him a happy birthday, the first time he was granted such a day since becoming human.

Thomas. "Ha-Ha- Happy Birthday. But I never knew I had a birthday. When did coming up with a birthday party just for me when I did not know?"

STH. "It was me Thomas, after looking back a few years since your humanization, I had to find within myself of what day you had your first firing when you started your life as an engine. Now that you have become human along with your friends who came after you. I had to find within myself to know of the dates each of you have been completed just as you had your first firing of your life as engines. When I did and after the test on each of you since your humanization decided to make it your Birthdays. Today Thomas is your Birthday now turning 17 and becoming more and more of an adult every passing day. I wanted to make this your official birthday and to start it off being it your 17th birthday to show how much each and everyone of you mean to me and this railway. Along the way everyone shall have a birthday once each of my dear humanized engine teens once your day comes up to my attention. Until then I would take this opportunity to say Happy Birthday to my Number one soul on this Island who has made everyone of its citizens proud of what you have become of yourself since walking as a human since your Humanization." Then finishes off with a hug with Thomas to show how much the humanize E2 is loved by everyone on the Island. Then 18-month-old Carter did something wonderful instead of crawling to Thomas, the little boy had found his legs and learned about how to use his knees and began to walk towards Thomas. Thomas and Rosie see this and could not help guiding the little guy to Thomas's Direction.

Thomas bent down and helped encouraged Carter to come to him. "Come on little guy (in a soft baby tone voice.) you can make it. Little more a little more." Then Carter had finally reached up to Thomas for humanized engine to lift the little boy and gave him a well-earned good job. "(Gasped happily) Good job Carter, looks like you are on your own milestone too."

Carter just wanted to give Thomas a hug from his favorite face of the Island. The gentle wonderful face of Thomas Billinton who started his life as an engine from Brighton, witness a series of two world wars and a terrible depression and all that took place since 1914 until the present day. Now as a human he feels he can do more and help as mush as he can as long, he has his friends and family around him. Thomas the tank engine who is now Thomas Billinton was something for Thomas to learn and find out the kind of person he was. The kind of person who will be as useful as the engine he once was. With everything around, him Thomas felt he needed to make his speech. Then Thomas found the stage and decided to make his speech before the first music was to hit the dance floor. "Wow, my birthday, I never knew I can ever have a birthday, not even my engine friends and family. I am touched and glad to know how much of a life have. I however am not alone when I feel this great that I am alive, I believe each and everyone of us feel like it is their birthday too. The early years have been my trial of earning my education of what it means to become a really useful engine, since my humanization, I had never known I had a special day. I thought that everyone else who had parents are the ones to know of what day their child comes to the world. However I do feel blessed to have a controller who have become a parent to everyone of us since none of us knew of what life would be like without someone to look over our shoulders during our development since from emerging from our engine sides and walking along with our fellow citizens of our Island home. I would like to take this time to say Thanks to every single one of you who has helped me know of my special day since I have never ever thought of it until today. Thank you." Everyone applauded and Rosie came up to Thomas and gave him the special gift she wanted to present to him earlier during the boat tour.

Rosie. "Thomas, I have been meaning to give this to you from our tour around the Island, but I feel you can see what I have for your birthday." Then Thomas took the item from Rosie and have Carter sit on his lap as he helped Thomas opened up the present from Rosie to Thomas. The item was photographic memories of when he was still the engine along with Rosie on the day of the Science meet at Ulfstead Castle, Then the images of when he and Rosie learned of their humanization at knapford that same night. Then came the day of learning about the place they now call home. The homestead that was in its worst before he and his friends made the land come around after being neglected to the point of making it another tourist attraction for visitors during Holiday season. Then came the day when he and Rosie were presented to be the most popular Freshman of their class. The list of memories since his engine days now into his days as a human. After looking through memory lane decided to give his girlfriend the best lovely long kiss he and Rosie needed after this special day.

Thomas and Rosie let go long enough for the two to gain their breaths as Thomas spoken to her with his heart. "Rosie, this has been the best thing you have presented to me since our humanization two years ago, Thank you, and I love you."

Rosie. "I love you too, Happy Birthday my Handsome Thomas." Then they kissed some more just as Discord had showed himself on the stage to help the party come along.

Discord. "Alright, alright, you do know that there is a party going on."

Rainbow Dash. "That is Discord for You." Then Pinky Pie and Vinyl Scratch zoomed up knocking Discord out of the way to get the party started.

Pinky Pie. "It is time to part- AY everyone."

Then the song conga from Gloria Stefan and the Miami sound Machine.

[Intro]
Come on, shake your body, baby, do the conga
I know you can't control yourself any longer
Come on, shake your body, baby, do the conga
I know you can't control yourself any longer

[Chorus]
Come on, shake your body, baby, do the conga
I know you can't control yourself any longer
Feel the rhythm of the music getting stronger
Don't you fight it 'til you tried it, do that conga beat

[Verse 1]
Everybody gather 'round now
Let your body feel the heat
Don't you worry if you can't dance
Let the music move your feet
It's the rhythm of the island
Like the sugar cane so sweet
If you want to do the conga
You've got to listen to the beat

[Verse 2]
Feel the fire of desire
As you dance the night away
'Cause tonight we're gonna party
'Til we see the break of day
Better get yourself together
And hold on to what you've got
Once the music hits your system
There's no way you're gonna stop

Everyone had a great time the music was electric, and everyone was happy. Then the camera had came to find Thomas as he was presented with the birthday cake. Then his sister Ariel had come up to her brother for a well-earned sisterly hug for his achievements since his early years and now his years as a human.

Ariel. "Anything you want to say for our guests Thomas?" Thomas looked around and decided to face us for this wonderful day he has ever earned.

Thomas. "To everyone who has been following my stories along with my fellow engine friends and family, would like to say this with open hearts. Thank you for being part of our story since our first being known to the world by the Reverend Wilbert Awdry, and the television series starting with Britt Allcroft to our present day. Never forget us as we all travel through the time of constant history, if it was not for the railway series nor the television series then the journey, we have spent together would have been for nothing. Once again, thank you and if you wish. You can use your own imagination of the types of stories you want for us to a part of. Just remember the target audiences you wish to present us in. Regardless of the type of story you tend to create us for. Thank you for the years and here is to many years more. Let the legacy and our memories live on in your hearts." Then he finishes off by blowing out the candle of his cake before everyone managed take a slice for everyone to share.

It was a great time to be an engine on the Island of Sodor, it is even more great now that Thomas has an official Birthday in his life. He will learn more about his friend's birthdays too in time, for now he will enjoy his own birthday with his family and friends.

Once we return there will be an exciting time on the Island with some new faces making their way for a special event to take place on the Island. What is this event you have asked? We will find out once we return to Northwestern High School year 2.
