I do not own either Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends, Timothy, or Thriller. They are strictly the property of the Awdry Family, Britt Allcroft, Kanefan701 and Michael Jackson, this story is purely for entertainment.
It was late one Friday night in 2004, 24 year old Thomas and his beloved fiancée Lady were walking home from their date. They had both been to the cinema to see Van Helsing, which starred Hugh Jackman. They had both enjoyed the film greatly and were now on their way home. Both Thomas and Lady were locomotive drivers who lived on the Island of Sodor and worked for the North Western Railway un the employment of Sir Topham Hatt.
"I really enjoyed Van Helsing, did you Lady?" asked Thomas.
"I sure did Thomas" replied Lady, "although I really wished that they both featured Gill-man as well".
"Well, they can't feature everyone of the Universal Monsters sadly," said Thomas.
"That's true" agreed Lady, "but at least we got to see Count Dracula, Frankenstein's Monster, Wolfman, Dracula's Brides, and Mr. Hyde".
Thomas gave a mischievous smile when he remembered that Lady had forgotten a certain group of monsters in the film.
"And let's not let us forget about the Dwergi," said Thomas.
"Oh my God the Dwergi were so disgusting," laughed Lady.
Thomas just smiled at his beloved as they continued their walk back to their house. He was also looking forward to their wedding which was to take place on the 16th of June, after that they would be off on their honeymoon to Shining Time in Pennsylvania.
"You know what I'm especially looking forward to Lady?" said Thomas when he turned to face her.
"No what are you looking forward to Thomas?" Lady asked her fiancée.
"Us spending the rest of our lives together" said Thomas lovingly, "having children and eventually growing old together".
"Well, I hope you get me pregnant on our wedding night Thomas," said Lady.
"That I hope so to," said Thomas.
Both Thomas and Lady continued on their way home. Once they got home, they were going to order some Domino's Pizza then head straight to bed.
It's close to midnight, something evil's lurking in the dark. Under the moonlight, you see a sight that almost stops your heart.
It was now 11 o'clock at night as they were walking down the path, but as they were walking, they both heard something or someone groaning in pain.
"What's that Thomas?" asked Lady feeling a little frightened.
"I don't know Lady" replied Thomas who was feeling a little uneasy by the sounds.
Just then someone came staggering out of the bushes right next to them, causing Thomas and Lady to jump. Thomas then stood protectively in front of Lady in case the interloper tried to mug them, however he was shocked when he saw who it was.
"Percy?" said Thomas in shock.
Percy Avonside was Thomas' best friend since they were both in 2nd class and was also a fellow engine driver. The day after Thomas had proposed to Lady, he had asked Percy to be his best man, a request that Percy was only too pleased to accept. But now Percy was on the ground in front of him, covered in sweat and panting like crazy, he then looked up when he heard someone say his name, he was horrified when he saw who it was.
"Thomas" said Percy in horror, "you and Lady get away from me right now".
"What?" said Thomas in shock at Percy's response, "Percy what's the matter, are you okay?".
"Please Thomas" Percy pleaded, "you and Lady have to leave right now, I'm dangerous".
"Dangerous" said Lady in confusion, "Percy in what are you talking about?".
"I can't help it" said Percy with tears streaming down his face, "once a month it happens, I can't control it".
Percy then turned away from them, Thomas had now had enough. Percy obviously had something serious, and he was determined to help his friend out.
"Percy please look at me" said Thomas, "whatever it is me and Lady can".
"GET AWAY" growled Percy when he looked at Thomas and Lady again.
Both Thomas and Lady backed away in shock and horror. Percy's eyes were now bright yellow, and his teeth were now sharp, Percy then began to squirm in pain again. Both Thomas and Lady watched in horror as Percy tore off his shirt and saw that he was beginning to sprout hair all over his body. They watched as his arms and legs began to lengthen, sharp claws appeared on his hands and feet, his face began to extend into a snout and his teeth began to grow longer and sharper, the transformation was now complete, Percy had become a werewolf.
You try to scream, but terror takes the sound before you make it. You start to freeze, as horror looks you right between the eyes. You're paralyzed.
Percy then let out a loud howl at the full moon. Taking their chance, both Thomas and Lady ran as fast as their legs could carry them. Percy saw them as they were running away and began to give chance, his werewolf instincts telling him to rundown his prey.
Thomas and Lady were both running as fast as they could, they both looked over their shoulders to see that Percy was chasing them. They both quickened their pace, knowing full well if Percy caught them, he would tear them to pieces. Just then Thomas noticed that there was a large manor house with its front door open right next to them.
"Quicky Lady in there," cried Thomas.
"But somebody lives there" cried Lady in reply.
"Would you rather get torn to pieces by a werewolf?" said Thomas desperately.
Lady knew that Thomas was right, besides they could try to explain to the owner of their situation, although she knew that they would never believe her and Thomas' story about them being chased by a werewolf. They both quickly ran towards the front door with Percy hot on their heels, they both bolted through the front door and Thomas managed to slam it shut just in time.
You hear the door slam and realize there's nowhere left to run. You feel the cold hand and wonder if you'll ever see the sun. You close your eyes and hope that this is just imagination, girl. But all the while you hear a creature creeping' up behind, you're out of time.
There was a loud thud as Percy slammed against the door, Thomas then put his full body wait against it as Percy then tried to break down the door. However, a minute later both Thomas and Lady heard him howl in defeat and headed off. Thomas then sat down besides Lady on the stairs, the two of them breathing heavily at their whole ordeal.
"What the fuck just happened there Thomas?" asked Lady in shock.
"I do not know Lady" said Thomas who was equally in shock.
"Percy is a werewolf" said Lady when she slowly came to her senses.
"Percy's werewolf?" came a voice from behind them.
Thomas and Lady jumped to their feet in fright and spun around to see who it was, they both calmed down when they saw that it was Edward Pettigrew, a fellow engine driver on the North Western Railway. Edward was a kind man who also acted like a mentor to the younger engine drivers, he looked at Thomas and Lady with a look of concern on his face.
"Thomas, Lady" he asked, "are you two alright?".
"Not really Edward," said Lady.
"Percy's a werewolf," said Thomas.
"A werewolf, are you sure Thomas?" asked Edward.
"We know it sounds crazy Edward but please hear us out" begged Lady.
"Okay Lady" said Edward kindly, "both you and Thomas can tell me".
But before either she or Thomas could explain the whole ordeal a voice ran from upstairs.
"Edward we're ready" it sounded.
"Okay I'll be right there" called Edward as he turned to face Thomas and Lady, "why don't you two join me, you've arrived just at the right time".
Thomas and Lady looked at each other before turning to face Edward.
"Sure, if you like Edward" said Thomas.
"Splendid" smiled Edward, "please follow me upstairs.
Thomas and Lady then followed Edward up the stairs of the manor. They did however notice an odd thing about Edward, he was wiring a scientist's outfit instead of his usual engine driver's uniform. They were both confused by this, another they were wondering was what was Edward doing in this manor house anyway.
"Edward" said Thomas.
"Yes Thomas?" asked Edward.
"Why are you dressed like a scientist?" asked Thomas.
"And what are you doing in this manor house anyway?" asked Lady in confusion.
All will be explained shortly" smiled Edward as he led Thomas and Lady into the attic.
Thomas and Lady both gasped in surprise. The attic of the manor had been converted into a laboratory, with flasks, a shelf with scientific books, a few organs in jars and a large electric generation in a corner of the lab. In the centre of the attic was a pair of metal tables, Thomas and Lady were both shocked to see that there were a pair of bodies on the table, both were covered by a sheet each.
"Edward what is going on here?" asked Thomas, wondering why Edward had a pair of bodies in a lab.
"They're both part of my experiment" said Edward with a smile on his face.
"What experiment is it?" asked Lady, disturbed at the smile on Edward's face.
Just then Bill and Ben came into the lab. Thomas and Lady noticed that they were both hunchbacked and wore a robe each, Bill and Ben noticed them and wave at them before going up to Edward.
"Everything's ready Edward," said Bill.
"We wait for your word," said Ben.
"Excellent you two" said Edward before pointing to the two bodies, "now get them hooked up so we can begin".
"Yes Edward" said Bill and Ben at the same time.
Bill ran to grab a pair of jumper cables attached to some wires and brought them over to the table. Ben then pulled back the sheets, Thomas and Lady were horrified to see that it was their friends, James, and Emily. They both saw that James and Emily were both covered with stitches and had a pair on bolts on their necks.
"Edward what the fuck is going on here?" demanded Thomas in anger.
"Don't worry Thomas" said Edward calmly, "I give you and Lady my word that James and Emily both volunteered for this experiment".
"You mean by killing them and chopping up their bodies before stitching them back together again" said Lady in anger.
"You're sick Edward" said Thomas angrily.
"Don't worry you two, I assure that you'll understand everything in a moment" explained Edward.
"We're ready Edward" said Bill after he attached the jumper cables to the bolts on James and Emily's necks.
"Excellent" said Edward.
Edward then walked over to a lever on the generation before putting on a pair of googles. He then grabbed the lever.
"LET THERE BE LIFE" shouted Edward before pulling the lever.
The electric generator then burst into life, a surge of electricity then went down the wires and into James and Emily. Both Thomas and Lady watched in horror as James and Emily began to spasm as the electricity surged through them.
Edward then began to cackle like a typical mad scientist. Then as soon as the generator had been turned on, it was now turned off. Edward then ran over to James and Emily and removed the straps that held them to the tables. AT first James and Emily lay motionless, but then they both began to make moaning noises and a minute later they both stood up with the help of Bill and Ben.
"THEY'RE ALIVE, THEY'RE ALIVE, THEY'RE ALIVE" shouted Edward in triumph.
They're out to get you, there's demons closing in on every side. They will possess you, unless you change that number on your dial, and now is the time for you and I, to cuttle close together, yeah. All through the night, I'll save you from the terror on the screen. I'll make you see.
Thomas and Lady decided that they had enough, they quickly and quietly left the attic lab before heading down the stairs. As they reached the body of the stairs, Thomas bumped into someone.
"Watch where you're going?" said the figure angrily.
"I'm so sorry" said Thomas, "I didn't mean to, Toby?".
Sure enough standing there was Toby Holden, another best friend of Thomas who drove a steam tram. Thomas and Lady saw that Toby was dressed liked the Phantom of the Opera, complete with a bone white mask.
"Thomas, Lady" said Toby, his anger now replaced with surprise, "what are you two doing here?".
"We could ask you the same thing Toby" said Thomas
"And why are you dressed like the Phantom of the Opera Toby?" asked Lady.
"Because I' am the Phantom of the Opera" said Toby, "look at my face".
Toby took off his face mask, Thomas and Lady were shocked to see that the right side of Toby's face was burned. Toby then put his mask back on and looked at the speechless couple.
"So why are you two here?" asked Toby.
"Percy chased us here after he became a werewolf," said Thomas.
"There you two are" came Edward's voice.
Thomas and Lady both turned to see Edward, James, Emily, Bill, and Ben standing at the top of the stairs.
"You tow can't be leaving already?" asked Edward.
"Sorry Edward but I'm afraid me and Lady have work tomorrow," said a frightened Thomas.
Thomas and Lady fled the manor and back down the street. They reached a river before they both stopped to take a breather, what the hell was going on.
"What the hell has happened to our friends?" Lady asked Thomas.
"I wish I had the answer Lady, but I'm afraid that I'm just as confused as you are" replied Thomas.
As Thomas and Lady were trying to piece together this puzzle, they both turned to see a lorry coming up to them. As the lorry passed them, an Egyptian sarcophagus fell of and landed at their feet.
"Wait you forgot this" Thomas shouted, hoping the lorry driver would hear him.
The driver didn't however and was soon out of sight. Thomas and Lady looked at the sarcophagus that lay before them, they both decided to see if it had a mummy in it. That was of course the reason the Ancient Egyptians had sarcophaguses for, Thomas gently opened the lid and his eyes widened when he saw who it was inside.
"Gordon" he exclaimed in shock.
Sure enough, laying inside of the sarcophagus and dressed like a mummy was Gordon Gresley. Gordon was the driver of the main express engine on the North Western Railway, he was also quite boastful and conceited at he was the great, great grandson of famed locomotive designer, Sir Nigel Gresley.
"Why is Gordon dressed like a mummy?" asked Lady in shock.
Just then Gordon's eyes shot open, but before he could get up, Thomas slammed the sarcophagus lid shut and before sitting on of it with Lady so he couldn't get out.
"This just isn't our night" said Thomas in exhaustion.
"Hopefully there won't be anymore monsters tonight" said a hopeful Lady.
But Lady had spoken too soon. Just then she and Thomas heard a gurgling noise coming from the river as a figure emerged from the water and began to walk towards them. It was a clear night, the moon shown its light down to where Thomas and Lady were. It revealed who the figure was, it was their friend Henry Stanier. They both noticed that Henry was naked, but thankfully his manhood was covered by some water vegetation. They did notice that his skin was green and scaly, his entire torso was covered in pale yellow scales, his hands were webbed, his teeth were sharp, and he had two gills where his ears were supposed to be.
"Henry" Thomas and Lady said together.
Henry advanced towards them with a menacing look on his face. Thomas and Lady then took off again, they had both got a good distance away when someone tripped them up, sending them sprawling to the ground.
"What the heck," said Thomas.
"Watch out clumsy steamie drivers" came a very familiar voice.
"Diesel" growled Thomas.
Diesel Derby was the driver of a black 08 Class diesel shunter. He had a reputation for being one of the devious drivers on the North Western Railway, although he would always be put in his place by Sir Topham Hatt. Right now, he stood in front of Thomas and Lady, wearing a black trench coat, a black hat and had covered his face in bandages.
"What's the matter Diesel?" said Thomas angrily, "did you scrape up your face or did you cover it in bandages so that you would have to face us like a real man?".
"Yes no, maybe" said Diesel in a sly voice, "you're more then welcome to take off my bandages if you like".
"Alright I will!" said Thomas once he and Lady had stood up.
Thomas then yanked off Diesel's hat and began to unwind his bandages. However, once he was finished unwinding them, Thomas and Lady backed away in shock to see that Diesel had no face, in fact his entire head was missing.
"What's the matter, cat got your tongues?" Diesel asked mockingly.
Diesel then began to laugh like a madman. Thomas and Lady then bolted off again, leaving a laughing Diesel behind. They both soon came to a cemetery; Thomas then opened the gate and was about to head in when he noticed Lady wasn't following him.
"Lady come on" said Thomas.
"Into a cemetery?" asked Lady nervously.
"Don't worry, my gran once told me that its hollowed" Thomas said in an attempt to comfort her.
Deciding to trust her beloved, Lady then followed Thomas into the cemetery. They both found a bench and sat down in it, they were both completely exhausted from their night of running from their friends who had from some unknown had been transformed into monsters.
Darkness falls across the land, the midnight hour is close at hand. Creatures crawl in search of blood, to terrorize y'alls neighbourhood. And whosoever shall be found without the soul for getting down, must stand and face the hounds of hell and rot inside a corpse's shell.
"Can we please stay here until morning Thomas?" asked Lady, "I'm too tired to run anymore".
"Same here Lady" said Thomas, "when the caretaker comes tomorrow, well just explain we were visiting your grandmothers grave and were accidentally locked in".
"That we should" smiled Lady.
Thomas and Lady then tried to make themselves comfortable on the bench before trying to get some sleep, they had thought their night of horrors was over, but it was not.
"Children, children" came a ghostly voice.
"Oh, come on this isn't fucking fair" groaned Thomas in annoyance.
"I like children, I like children" came the ghostly voice again.
"Wait a minute," said Thomas.
"What is it Thomas?" asked Lady worriedly.
"I recognize that voice" said Thomas in shock, "but it can't be".
"Oh, it can little brother" came a demonic voice.
Thomas and Lady both turned to see a ghostly figure standing behind them. Thomas could see the figure more clearly, his eyes widened when he saw who it was.
"Timothy" said Thomas in shock recognizing his late older brother.
"Hello Thomas, happy to see me?" asked Timothy.
"But how is this possible, you died 6 years ago" asked Thomas.
"Well, isn't that how you greet your dear older brother isn't it?" asked Timothy freighting hurt.
"You're a ghost aren't you Timothy?" asked Lady.
"Maybe I' am, maybe I'm not" said Timothy with a demented grin on his face, but first I'm sure some friends would like to see you again".
"What friends?" asked Thomas.
"Brains" came a new voice.
Thomas and Lady both turned around to see Duck limping towards them. They noticed that his skin was grey, some bone was exposed, his suit was ragged, there were some worms wriggling over him and his arms were stretched out.
"Duck" Thomas and Lady asked together.
Just then Percy leaped behind them with a howl. Thomas and Lady tried to flee by going in the opposite direction, but their path was blocked by James, Emily, Edward, Toby, Bill, and Ben.
They then tried to escape by fleeing between the headstones. However, they saw Henry, Gordon, and Diesel walking towards them through the headstones.
The foulest stench is in the air, the funk of 40,000 years, and grizzly ghouls from every tomb are closing in to seal your doom. And, though, fight to stay alive, your body starts to shiver, for no mere mortal can resist the evil of the thriller.
Their now monstrous friends and Thomas' ghostly brother surrounded them through every direction, Thomas and Lady then stood back to back as their friends started to close in on them.
"Thomas what are we going to do" cried Lady desperately, now scarred out of her mind.
Lady then turned around to face Thomas, but when she did her eyes widened in horror. Thomas was now dressed like Count Dracula; his skin was pale, his eyes were now coloured blood red, and his two canine teeth were now a pair of vampire fangs.
"Thomas?" Lady asked in a trembling voice.
"Yes Lady" asked Thomas.
"Stay, stay away from me" said Lady in fright.
"Lady what's wrong?" asked Thomas clearly hurt that Lady was now frightened of him.
"You can't take my blood" said Lady, thinking that Thomas was going to bite her and drain her of her blood.
"Lady you've got it all wrong" said Thomas, "I don't want your blood, I want to make you my vampire bride".
"Vampire bride?" asked Lady in shock.
"Lady" said Thomas as he gently took her hands in his own, "I promise I don't want to hurt you; I merely want to turn you into a vampire".
"Me a vampire?" asked Lady.
"That's right Lady," said Thomas.
"Become like us," said Percy.
"Become a monster like us," said James.
"Be one of us," said Gordon.
Lady looked around as her and Thomas' friends began to chant one of us. She then looked at Thomas who had both a hopeful and sincere look written all over his face, she and Thomas had known and loved each other since they were both 6 years old and never once had he hurt.
"You promise it won't hurt?" asked Lady.
"It will only hurt for a little bit, but it will be all over quickly" assured Thomas.
For reasons she couldn't explain, whether she trusted him or not, Lady then showed Thomas her neck. Thomas then took her in his arms and drew his fangs, then bite into Lady's neck. Lady gasped in pain for a moment, but then it quickly went away as Thomas began to inject her with vampire blood.

"AAHH" screamed Lady as she sat up in bed.
"Lady what's wrong?" came a voice.
Lady turned and saw that much to her relief that it was her beloved fiancée, Thomas Billinton. Thomas had been woken up by Lady's scream, which meant that she had just woken from a nightmare.
"Oh Thomas I just had a horrible nightmare" said Lady panting.
"What was it about?" asked Thomas.
Lady then explained to Thomas about her nightmare, he listened to it with interest.
"And then you turned me into a vampire" said Lady as she finished her story.
"That's like one scary dream!" said Thomas.
"It was and I was so scared" said Lady.
Thomas then took Lady's hands in his own, he then looked her directly in the eyes.
"Lady Stone" said Thomas sincerely, "I promise you that as long as I live, I will never let anyone harm you".
"You mean it Thomas?" asked Lady.
"I mean" said Thomas, "now let us get back to sleep".
Thomas then took Lady into his arms and held her in a protective embrace. She then fell back asleep as Thomas looked down at her lovingly, he then looks towards us, his eyes coloured blood red.
And done, it took me a full two days to write, and I must say I'm pleased with how it turned out. So please be so kind as to leave a review.
