An engine pulled into Apollo Victoria Station. A shiny, green and white coach unhitched and the engine pulled away. The coach looked around. It had been forever since she had last been at this station. She wondered if anyone would recognize her, only half hoping no one would. Suddenly, she heard a voice say, "Welcome back Star!" The coach turned in the direction of the voice seeing Belle come towards her. The sleeper had raised Star since birth and though Star really hadn't been looking forward to coming to AV, she had missed Belle. The older sleeper gave the coach a hug. "Have you been taking care of yourself?" Belle asked. Star nodded. Just then, Poppa came out of Control's shed. The worried frown on his face soon dissolved into a gentle smile upon seeing Star in Belle's embrace. "Hello Star," he said as he approached the two. Star rolled her eyes. For as much as the green and white coach loved her 'mother' Belle, Star disliked the old steamer. However, back when she was in high school, Belle and Poppa had coupled so Star had to put up with him. "It's nice to have you home," the steamer continued. Star didn't say anything and Poppa gave a sigh. "Let's get you inside and settled in," Belle suggested. Star started to move shed Belle and Poppa shared when she stopped suddenly. The coach felt as though she were being watched. She turned her head, her jade eyes just catching a glimpse of red. "Everything all right Star?" Poppa asked. Star looked back at the steamer and nodded. The three headed back into the shed.
CB had seen the engine pull into AV as soon as he had exited Meg's shed. He had also seen the new coach unhitch, the engine leaving her as he rolled away. The caboose became curious. Who was she? He rolled closer to the new arrival, staying out of her line of vision. The sun caught her frame and she glimmered. CB made a face. Only certain cars looked like that...the new coach was electric. CB had had bad past experiences with electrics and didn't like them one bit. However, the caboose also got a strange feeling that he should know this new coach. These feelings were further deepened when Belle came out and greeted the coach. He had tried to get a closer look when the coach turned her gaze on him without warning. CB barely made it into hiding, hoping she hadn't seen him. Next time he peered out, the mysterious, green and white, electric coach was gone.
