Another week has gone by and our friends continue do well in school, however; one other friend may not know that all of this was going on while attending her own school in the world she calls home. Want to find out who it is this time. Then why don't we pay our friends a visit to see who had come to Sodor this time?

A surprise from Canterlot High.

We are going to start from anther world where it is not the world of Sodor nor the world of Equestria but its counterpart Equestria Girls world where there are the real human forms of Twilight Sparkle and her dog Spike. Rarity, Applejack, Pinky Pie, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, and the former student of Princess Celestia, Sunset Shimmer. They have decided to have their winter fun just outside of Canterlot High School, Rarity, Sunset, and Applejack had set up their snow fort, While Rainbow, Twilight, and Pinky pie are set up with their own as Fluttershy decided to stand by with her animal friends.

Fluttershy. "Are you sure you want to do this?" Angle her pet bunny wanted to take part in this winter event. "Well um alright but do be careful Angel, we do not want for you to injure yourself from the vicious snow throwing fight that is about to take part out there." Angle was not too worried, but just got a hit to the back of his tail by spike the dog.

Spike. "Heh, Heh. Now how do you like them apples little tough bunny?"

Angel recovered enough to have his fellow friends help through a shower of snowballs over onto Spikes direction, enough to cover the little purple dog from head to tail in snowballs. After becoming overwhelmed by the bombardment, Spike emerged from under the pile.

Spike. "Okay, okay, sheesh. Cannot take the snowball in the fluffy tail."

Twilight. "Keep it up Spike, there are a lot more than that to make it through this snowball round."

Over by the other side Sunset, Rarity and Applejack had a newcomer to the fold and it is their Flash Sentry who has more respect for Sunset than before.

Flash. "Flash Sentry is here to defend our snow fort my friends, how is it going Sunset."

Sunset. "Very well Flash, now all we need to do is to out through their snow power if we are going to win this contest."

Applejack. "Then come on y'all, we have a snow fort to defend!"

Then Rarity had thrown her bombardment of snow projections. "Take that you ruffians." The shower of snowballs was thrown everywhere. Some hitting their targets, while others missed and almost gave grief for the other contenders.

Rainbow. "Ha, ha. IN your face Rarity." That was before a blanket of snow had covered her after it was let go from one of Rarity diamond shields that held up the snow in the first place. This is when Rainbow recovered. "Hey, you are supposed to use that during any problems we face when it comes from the land of Princess Twilight Sparkle!"

Sunset. "It is called Equestria, Rainbow, just the same it has been a while since any of us had any contact with the princess of Friendship from her world."

Pinky. "Maybe she has been so busy lately that it has been hard for her to come back here besides of us dropping in on her or her dropping in on us."

Applejack. "I can imagine all that of being a princess must take a lot of her time from seeing any of us now and then."

Fluttershy. "It has been a long time since that cruise we were on before seeing our other selves before we reached the castle of Friendship that Twilight lives in."

Rarity. "I wonder what she is up to these days Darlings, I can imagine that the princess must be busy with her princess duties while we are spraying each other with snowballs."

Sunset shimmer. "I can ask her through my journal again to see what she has been up to and wonder all that has happened since."

Rainbow Dash. "You do that Sunset, let us know what you have found."

Sunset Shimmer. "Alright then I will let you all know of what I have learned from her." With that everyone else headed for their destinations while Sunset sat against the wondercolt statue to begin her writing but not before she had heard a train whistle from another side of the statue. "strange I never heard the stature making sounds of a steam train before." She came closer and closer with her journal in her hand as she came near the side where she had heard the engines sounds from only to be whisked away like she would if she was being sent to the Castle of Friendship dropping her journal in the process, only after she came through the portal finding herself as she was before she entered the portal only to find herself in front of a set of railway buffers. "Huh, what was that I just gone through?" She looked around and still found it covered with snow, but the land appears to be different and she found herself to be as same as she was back in the world where she calls home. "What kind of place is this?" Then she spotted the track underneath her feet and started to walk along the tracks leading it away from the buffers. "Well here goes nothing."

The land where Sunset had landed in was not Equestria but the world of Thomas and his friends who in their human forms. While most of the students who occupied the homestead of Thomas the tank engine Billinton, his sister Ariel, and Girlfriend Rosie Vulcan. While those who work on the rails continue to play their roles until the end of the workday. Back on the homestead Toby, Mavis, Percy and Polly (Lady) are busy taking care of Thomas's animals on the homestead, this is when Polly was sensing someone had entered the Portal from the magic buffers and had alerted her friends about it.

Polly. "What just happened?"

Percy. "What is wrong my sweet Polly?"

Polly. "I have sensed someone had entered the portal through the Magic railroad Percy. I do not believe this person meant to be here. But who ever she is I hope we can help them out before they become too lost for us to find Percy?"

Toby. "Let us see how close Thomas and Ryan are from completing their time on the railway first before we can send anyone into that direction?"

Mavis. "I am already on it Toby, knowing Thomas he would probably wanted to make sure for who it is will be found safe and sound."

This is when the ponies from Equestria in human form had come in from the cold after hearing about another visitor from either their world of from another.

Rainbow. "Who do you believe is here, could be anyone."

Twilight. "Fluttershy, can any of your birds fly up to the buffers to see who just came from the Magic Railroad?"

Then Fluttershy tweeted to her birdy friends just to ask them if they knew the way to the magic buffers in a grotto Fluttershy and her friends remembered when they came to Sodor for the first time. The bird tweeted yes then Fluttershy had tweeted to the bird to find the buffers to see who just came through. The bird acknowledges Fluttershy and was on his way to the buffers. "There we should get our answers soon every pony."

Applejack. "I hope so the last thing we need is some unexpected company when we really are in no mood to deal with right now."

Pinky Pie. "Who knows Applejack, it could have been a good friend who once was a baddie who had already seen her bad that has now become good again just to find out what had become of our princess of friendship since the last time they had met up with her last."

Rarity. "And you know of this because?"

Pinky Pie. "Just a hunch." Then she smiles just as Twilight had figured out who she meant.

Twilight. "Could it be she could have been sent here without knowing how to get back to the other humanized world from our own pony world?"

Toby. "Ah Twilight, who are you referring to?" He and the other sudrian teens were puzzled about who Twilight was talking about.

Starlight Glimmer also have an idea of who Twilight may be talking about. "Her name is Sunset shimmer; she was a former student of Celestia long before Twilight ever gained her studies from our Princess Celestia."

Applejack. "From what Twilight had told us about this Sunset shimmer is that she once had a darker side before realizing what her mistake was."

Rarity. "After that Sunset shimmer was a more reformed student from her world where she goes to Canterlot High school with our humanized counter parts there."

Fluttershy. "You can say they look just like us only we came from the pony world, but she came a more humanized version of us."

Rainbow Dash. "I heard that one of them was just as awesome as I am, especially since she can what she calls shredding the guitar for her group the rainbooms."

Pinky Pie. "And a very popular party planning girl who is just into the party thing just like me."

Twilight. "I just hope she is alright, she may not be in Equestria, but she will be needing the help we can give her."

Over with the bird who flew to find Sunset shimmer to find her close to the Farrquarr line to see a small station loaded with passengers waiting to be picked up for their train ride with Thomas and his crew. When Sunset looked to see a train station with an approaching Blue steam engine with a short stumpy funnel, a short stumpy boiler and a short stumpy dome with six small wheels. Sunset knew it would be best to see if anyone there could help her. She ran up to the platform to see two boys at the controls of the engine that once was Thomas the tank engine. Then Thomas spoken to the new girl, one who he nor Ryan had ever seen before.

Thomas. "Hello young lady, May I ask of where you had come from?"

Sunset Shimmer. "Hello, I was wondering if you can help me?"

Ryan. "Is there something wrong here miss."

Sunset Shimmer. "How can I say this before anything I say may sound strange to you?"

Thomas. "You want to know strange? How about the fact that this engine that my friend Ryan and I are driving use to be me a couple of years ago before I ended up ingesting something called light water that allowed for me to be separated from my engine self."

Ryan. "I also was an engine before my own separation from my engine form that is now on the Harrwick branch line."

Sunset was surprised. "Really you were this engine that you are driving. Anyways, I was wondering if you could tell me of where I am?"

Ryan. "Where did you came from if you are wondering of where you are now?"

Sunset Shimmer. "I was originally from the world of Equestria, only years later I found myself in a land that have our world's counter parts living there and we attend Canterlot High School. My Name is Sunset Shimmer."

Thomas. "My name is Thomas the Tank engine Billinton and this fellow besides me is Ryan Gresley. Both he and I know about the world of Equestria when a group calling themselves the Mane seven including their version of who is Flash Sentry came over last summer to prevent a disaster from taking place here."

Sunset was surprised that both Thomas and Ryan know about the world of Equestria which means that they know how to reach Twilight Sparkle of the pony world. "Gasps, You know of Twilight Sparkle and her friends from Equestria?"

Thomas. "That we do Sunsert Shimmer." Then Thomas decided it would be best to help Sunset back to her friends back on his homestead. "Here Sunset if you can hurry to the ticket counter both Ryan and I can give you a ride to my homestead it is just over the overpass at Elsebridge. After that why don't you find your friends in the pony dormers." That had brought a smile on Sunset's face knowing she will be meeting up with the princess pony instead of the Sci Twi back in the other world. Sunset ran to the ticket counter for Eslebridge Station her destination to see her friends before finding her way back to make sure her friends in Canterlot High School would not miss her too much.

Back with the Equestria World, the girls had gathered in the ice cream parlor wondering how long Sunset is going to be with her chats with Twilight Sparkle of the Pony world.

Twilight sparkle. "Has it been that long since anyone of us had heard from Sunset Yet?"

Rarity. "Not since she offered to hear it from the princess of Friendship darling, there must have been so much to catch up with since twilight of the pony world must be very busy with her royal duties there."

Applejack. "I am sure she is doing just fine sugar cube, if she is not back by sundown then we should see what had become of our Sunset Shimmer."

Rainbow Dash. "Yeah besides, I bet there was a lot of adventures they have yet to discuss. And when finished I bet, she will have to tell us when she is good and ready."

Fluttershy. "I just hope where she is now is not too scary for us to get her back from where she is at now."

Pinky Pie. "I do not think she will be in a scary place more like a place where she will find our images and find where the pony versions of us had gotten too while she herself wanted to find their twilight to make sure that the princes of friendship will be there to help her come back to us."

Twilight. "If that was the case then we should not worry too much of where she could be at this time. Right?"

Rainbow. "just the same I would not mind if we were to take a peek of knowing where she could be, after all it is close to closing time here. I bet where she is it can also be closing time over there too."

Twilight. "I'd say we wait a bit, that way if she was in trouble, we are sure to find her once she knows of how to reach us."

Back on Sodor, Sunset had finally arrived at Elsbridge and walked over the overpass to the piece of property on the other side. There to greet her was Thomas's sister Ariel along with Twilight and her Flash Sentry holding hand together as they see into view Sunset Shimmer.

Twilight. "Sunset Shimmer, What a surprise." Then Sunset ran up to Twilight with a big smile on her face just before the two friends had embraced each other in a hug followed by a handshake from Ariel and Twilight's Flash Sentry.

Sunset Shimmer. "Twilight, it is so wonderful to see you again, but what has happened since the last time my friends and I had come to your castle on our last visit."

Twilight. "WE have a lot to talk about Sunset, come on and let us come together with my friends that way we all can fill you in all that took place that allowed for us to be part of this world and return to our original world after wards."

Sunset Shimmer. "I would like to hear it Twilight." With that the friends gathered around the dining tables of the dining hall to give Sunset shimmer all the details up until now.

Back on the tracks Thomas and Ryan had returned to Knapford station to complete their run before the night crew is to take overs for the night. The engine came to a complete stop before Thomas and Ryan and set the brakes before the next crew are to come onboard and the two boys can call it a day and waited for their friends to return after their trips before they are to return to the Homestead of Thomas's and Rosie.

Ryan. "Well That was a surprise, meeting up with someone who knows of Twilight Sparkle and her friends."

Thomas. "I cannot imagine the confusion on her face once she ended up in our world instead of the world of Equestria."

Ryan. "Just the same, i think we need to see what has brought her here, that way we can help her get back home to her friends."

At this point in time their friends had shown up before everyone went home with their rides back to the homestead. Thomas explained to Rosie about meeting up with Sunset Shimmer before dropping her off at Elsbridge. Rosie was interested in this Sunset just to see how she is with everyone after the stories she and the other ladies of the homestead had heard all about Sunset Shimmer from Twilight when she went to the humanized pony world to meet up with their version of the Mane Six.

Rosie. "I just hope she is not here to create a problem when we first meet up with her Thomas."

Thomas. "Now now, Rosie, let us not get too much ahead of ourselves over someone we only knew from word but not how she is now."

Rosie. "I Suppose Thomas, well on our way home, shall we?" Then onward to the homestead they all went as everyone gathered with their rides before heading for home.

Back at the homestead the Mane seven, Flash and Spike finished with their tales of how they managed to come to the Island of Sodor and how they were able to stay thanks to the spell twilight placed over her doors of reality in her Castle.

Sunset. "Wow, what an amazing discovery of an Island filled with sentinel locomotives and other things that we do not get to see anywhere else this is amazing."

Rainbow Dash. "You know it Sunset; you especially missed the Rally for the cure for childhood cancers. We were competing against two schools for the cause."

Applejack. "Not to mention on how often how we keep coming back here to spend some time with our friends here on Sodor before returning home to face our day there."

Twilight. "Then again we do spend a lot of time here, so even before we set out for our day back in Equestria, we do gain ourselves a chance to rest it up before we face the real days for us."

Sunset. "Wow if I knew all of this was going on, I would be by your sides in no time. But now I feel like I need to return before my high school friends come looking for me. Knowing the Rainbow dash I knew of she will search high and low finding adventure. Remember when I came to your Castle with our version of Twilight Sparkle, Twilight?"

Twilight. "Of course, the last thing we need are double vision of our friends since here you cannot tell who the ponies are from the other humans."

Applejack. "That all depends on how we envision our kin folks from the others."

Sunset. "Believe me it will be like looking into a mirror to find the real human from the pony version of you."

On the other side the girls were getting worried for their friend who had not shown up after a while. They all decided to return to the school grounds to see where she was located last. That is until Spike the dogs had found something next to the Wonder Colt Statue.

Spike sniffs at the object before letting his Twilight to know of what he found.

Spike. "Hey Twilight over here." Then the friends had come over to see what appears to be the journal that Sunset Shimmer usually use when she needs to speak to the princess Twilight Sparkle.

Sci Twi. "Hey everyone, look at this." Then everyone had come over to see Twilight and Spike's findings. "It must be Sunset's journal, the one she uses when she is sending messages with the princess."

Applejack. "It definitely hers alright, any Ideas of how she could have left this behind?"

Fluttershy. "It looks like she had dropped it, and from the otherside of the statue."

Rainbow. "I thought the entrance to Equestria would be on this side, why would she have left it on the other side of the portal?"

Rarity. "Who knows of why she would drop such a thing is beyond me dear."

Pinky. "Maybe she had left it behind due to the fact she could be in a different world besides the pony world where she and the Princess is from."

Sci Twi. "There is only one way to find out."

Rainbow. "Make our way through the portal in order to find our friends Twilight?"

Sci Twi. "No Rainbow, the last thing we need is to venture to someplace that may be strange to us. I am going to attempt of reaching her through her journal to make sure she is alright."

Applejack. "Good thinking Twilight, if anyone can figure out on how to use that journal and that is you besides that of Sunset Shimmer."

Then Twilight began to write to someone who she may believe can help shed light on where Sunset Shimmer had gone too. "To whomever it may concern, my name is Twilight Sparkle of Canterlot High School. I am looking for a friend of mine who goes by the name of Sunset Shimmer-."

As she begun to write, back in the pony dormers Twilight had noticed her own book that connects her with Sunset Shimmer in the other world was starting to glow. That got the attention of both Twilight and Sunset Shimmer. Then Spike managed to retrieve the book before Twilight had managed to open the book to discover that the other twilight is trying to find Sunset much to Sci Twi's relief.

Sci Twi. "- I just wanted to make sure she is safe, and my friends and I are just worried for her since she did not show up at the sugar cube corner ice cream parlor this afternoon. Please let us know if she is alright."

This is when Princess Twilight Sparkle had written back to ensure the other versions of themselves that their friends Sunset Shimmer is safe and are attempting to send her back to their world.

Twilight Sparkle. "This is princess Twilight Sparkle, I am letting you all know that our friends Sunset Shimmer is indeed safe. She had accidentally entered a world where the locomotives and other forms of transports have been sentient beings who for some reason became humanized two years ago. That will be explained once our friend had returned after we find a way to send her back."

Then the friends back at the statue could not help but wonder about the world where locomotives and other sentient forms of transport. They could not help but wonder more about that world besides the one they are living in. Then Princess Twilight Sparkle finishes off, "-then after that Sunset can tell you all that went on here since last year. I hope we can see each other without confusing on who was supposed to be the real ponies while the others happen to be the real girls from Canterlot High school. Sincerely yours Princess Twilight Sparkle."

The EG Girls. "Woah."

Pinky. "Oh, wow a world filled up with talking locomotives and other things that can talk to us too."

Rarity. "only to find that they became humanized a couple of years ago and decided to remain until they themselves had finish with high school too."

Applejack. "I would definitely want to meet them; I wonder if they are available."

Sci Twi. "Sorry Applejack, from what was told to me that these humanized locomotives already have love interests already. Maybe next time we can find that someone other if we wanted to find that future with someone."

Rainbow Dash. "Awe nuts I was hoping there would be someone interested in an awesome girl like me someday. But I can see that I need to wait for that one." Then Sci Twi decided to write back to let them know that the message had been sent.

Sci Twi. "We are glad that Sunset is alright, let us know if we need to do anything from here to help guide her to our home world with a bit of help from her friends here."

Princess Twilight returns. "I will let you all know of what we can help find to send Sunset Back to you in your world Girls. Princess Twilight Out." With that everyone gathered around to find out how to send Sunset back without returning to the buffers since she does not have a set of doors to her home without anyone there to notice. If there is a way, we are sure that our humanized engine friend can help find the answers before Sunset is there for too long.


It looks like Sunset will be here for a while, our engine friends can help with the situation, only to make sure everyone is onboard on sending Sunset Shimmer back to Canterlot High School with the human versions of their pony friends. Find out on the return to Northwestern High School year 2.
