My Little Pony: Equestria Girls: Sodor on Vacation
Disclaimer: I don't own anything MLP EGs and Thomas and Friends related, all those two go to their companies that own them. Also, borrowing some elements from LPFanfic's stories, credit goes to him or her, so expect those.
Season 1: Sodor Meets Equestria
Episode 12: Assembling the Team
After their campout, the group made their way over to the bus to be dropped off around town. They were telling Starlight and Emily all about their new powers and how they mastered them.
Emily: Man, I'm actually impressed. I wish I can see them for myself, but I had to help Skarloey and some of his friends defend Luke from two friends called Snips and Snails.
Starlight Glimmer: Yeah, if you see those two, they're nothing but complete jerks.
Percy: Eesh, sounds like some people I know who can be a bit of a jerk as well.
James & Gordon: Hey! Hey!
Thomas: I can see why. Emily, why don't you tell the girls your past actions.
Emily: Uhh, are you sure you guys want to hear it?
Rainbow Dash: Eh, we don't mind. We've heard the others tell their past stories, while Nia & Rebecca listen in, so we're perfectly okay.
Emily: Umm, okay, well how should I start, well when I first arrived on Sodor, I was so excited to be taking passengers that I accidentally took Annie & Clarabel, that got Thomas a little upset. But after I rescued Oliver from nearly having an accident with Thomas, I was rewarded with my own coaches and forgive Thomas about that mishap, and we've been best friends ever since, even if I think he's kinda cute.
Thomas: (Blushes) Emily!
Emily: (Giggles) Don't worry Thomas, your secret is safe with me.
(Flashback: Emily was one of the newest engines to arrive on Sodor, and Sir Topham Hatt tasked her to pull some passengers. But a mistake happened which resulted in Emily taking Thomas' coaches, Annie & Clarabel, which they're most upset with it. Thomas saw this as Emily was traveling down the line, and is most upset. After a while, Oliver told her that they belong to Thomas, she now realized her mistake and goes to apologize, as Thomas is bringing Emily's new coaches. Meanwhile, Oliver has broken down and Emily is close to rescue him. And she did it, before Thomas collided with them, and Emily is rewarded with her new coaches, apologized with Thomas and became best friends.)
Thomas: (Chuckles) I remember that, it got me upset a bit until the both of us apologized and became good friends.
Sunset Shimmer: I'm actually surprised that you did that Emily.
Emily: Yeah, misunderstandings are all the rage. Anyway, my other experience I had was not good. One time, I finally get the chance to pull the express, but then I got "Express Engine Syndrome" much like Gordon and I really wasn't listening to reason until I ran out of water.
(Flashback: Emily gets the chance to pull the express, feeling very proud of herself. But when trying to get it out of the station, they were very heavy to pull, but with much effort, she managed to get them moving. But after a while, she's started to feel almost like Gordon, which is a "disease" called "Express Engine Syndrome", which made her really rude, complained that Bertie is running late, and she left his passengers he's bringing to her. And didn't bother to stop for water, and that came back to bite her as she ran out of the water, and got in trouble with Sir Topham Hatt.)
Rainbow Dash: Eesh, and I thought I was the impatient one.
Applejack: You still are impatient at some points Rainbow Dash.
Rainbow Dash: I improved, a little bit.
Emily: (Chuckles) And you can blame Gordon for giving me this "disease".
Gordon: (Sarcastically) Sorry.
Emily: Anyway, there was this one time that I had to take cars of flour to the bakery. I had to rush to deliver them otherwise I'm stuck delivering tourists to Black Loch. James told me that there was a monster lurking in the Loch and I was petrified. Until I had an accident with the flour and I'm stuck with the Black Loch run, and then I saw the monster, and later, it turned out to be a family of seals. And now, I'm not scared of the run at all.
(Flashback: James told her the rumor of a monster inhabiting the lake of Black Loch where he goes on his runs, which made Emily petrified. She was then tasked to take flour and deliver them to the bakery, but she's been running late with her deliveries and Sir Topham Hatt warns her that if she runs late again, she'll take the Black Loch run. She then tries to rush her deliveries, but she crashed the cars, with the flour late, she now has to do the Black Loch run. She's still petrified of the monster that inhabits the lake, but when a landslide happened which blocked her path, and the monster approaching her, she expects the worst. But the monster didn't attack her, she opened her eyes and looked to see that it was just a family of seals. Now, she doesn't feel scared of going on the Black Loch run.)
Fluttershy: Aww, those seals sound so cute.
Emily: They sure are.
Fluttershy: How dare you call those seals, monsters James?
James: What, I just heard rumors of them as monsters roaming the lake, I have no idea they were really seals.
Emily: I'm sure we're almost heading to town right about now.
Thomas: Almost, just a couple of feet away.
Emily: Well, I do have time for one more, on one stormy day, I have to collect Trevor to take him to the airport to clear the runway for Jeremy to land. But I thought I know what I'm doing so I didn't listen to my friends. On one occasion, Thomas warned me of fallen trees and I didn't listen to him and not have Harvey remove them, so I barged through the tree. When Duck warned me of mud on the tracks, I didn't listen to him and gotten myself stuck until Murdoch pulled me out. After that experience, I know to always listen to my friends when there's something going on.
(Flashback: A stormy day is going on, and Sir Topham Hatt tasked Emily to collect Trevor and bring him to the airport to clear the runway for Jeremy to land. Murdoch warns her to take the safe route over to his field, but Emily didn't listen to him as she raced off to get Trevor. Thomas then warned her of fallen trees on the line, and wait for Harvey. But Excellent Emily doesn't listen to him and barges the tree out of her way. Duck then warns her of mud on the tracks and she might get stuck, but she still doesn't listen. She then gets herself stuck in the mud, knowing she may never get Trevor to the airport. She then sees Murdoch and gets his attention, resulting in him rescuing her. Now Emily knows to listen to her friends' warnings, even if she's on the job.)
Twilight Sparkle: Eesh, and I thought I was the know-it-all around my old time.
Sunset Shimmer: Ditto to that.
Bertie: We're nearing the town, so get ready and save the school from those diesels.
Thomas: You got it Bertie, also, there's a special red rock just for you.
He threw Bertie one of the geodes he and Sunset found, and he managed to catch it.
Bertie: Thanks Thomas, we're here, see ya.
Thomas: See ya.
When they were out of the bus, Sunset and Thomas went to her house to drop off the geodes in a safe spot, but Thomas took three of them to give to three specific people.
Thomas: Alright then, let's head out.
Sunset Shimmer: Wait, we don't want to charge in there willy-nilly, we may need some extra time to prepare ourselves in case Diesel has some more tricks. Why don't we rest up for the night, maybe train a little more, so that way you'll get used to your new powers and hopefully, try to fight off the diesels and save the school.
Thomas: But we can't rest now, one more second and Diesel will totally destroy Canterlot High if given the chance.
Sunset Shimmer: I know Thomas but, (Sighs), listen, I know you don't like Diesel doing this to the school, but something tells me that somehow we're not ready to fight him yet. I don't know how to say it, but my gut is saying that we may need further training to master your powers. Trust me on this Thomas, I know I'm right and the same will probably go to your friends as well as mine.
Thomas: (Sighs) I guess you're right Sunset, plus, after our campout and our trek, along with mastering our new abilities, can tire someone out in a heartbeat.
Sunset Shimmer: Well, you're always welcome to sleep here and stay at my place while we do our final training session before the big battle.
Thomas: I knew there's a reason why I like you so much, you're just like me with all the different qualities of friendship that make up who I am right now.
Sunset Shimmer: (Blushes) Thanks Thomas, you're the best, and I like you too.
The two walked towards each other and wrapped their arms around each other with their cheeks pressed together knowing that no matter what challenge is thrown at them; they will push through. After that, they get themselves ready for bed and spend the night together, waiting for the training day to begin. Meanwhile, at Twilight's house, Twilight and Edward were getting themselves ready for tomorrow, for the final training session to sharpen their powers.
Twilight Sparkle: I'm actually happy that you guys got these new powers, we could really use the support.
Edward: I agree with you Twilight, we need all the help from our friends, otherwise Diesel will probably wipe the floor with us.
Twilight Sparkle: That's why we will train one more time tomorrow before our big battle.
Edward: Agreed, now let's get some sleep.
The two of them got into bed and went fast asleep dreaming of what's to come, while Spike is snuggling in his bed, meanwhile, Henry and Fluttershy were also getting ready for tomorrow, but they're a little apprehensive about it.
Henry: I know that tomorrow will be our big battle, but I just can't get a feeling that this fight will be riskier than we've ever faced, I just can't shake this feeling out of my brain.
Fluttershy: I know how you feel Henry, for me, I'm not big on actual combat, but with my friends by my side, we eventually get through it.
Henry: I hope so.
Fluttershy: Don't worry Henry, I believe in my friends. Come on Henry, let's get some sleep.
Henry: Sure I guess.
The two of them hunker down for the night while some of her animal friends, along with Angel, sleep in her house. Meanwhile, Rainbow and Gordon were also getting ready for bed, but they couldn't help but feel worried on what the diesels are capable of.
Rainbow Dash: I know you guys are confident in taking down the diesels, but do you feel a little bit worried that they have powers and may have the capability of over-passing you?
Gordon: Hmm, a little bit. But they're just mindless brutes, nothing more nothing less. They're hardly a challenge besides Diesel 10.
Rainbow Dash: I know that, it's just, we feel a little concerned about you guys, that's all.
Gordon: Thank you Ms. Dash, I appreciate it.
Rainbow Dash: No problem Gordon my man, we all care about you and there's nothing that's going to change that.
Rainbow walked up to Gordon and kissed him on the cheek, as they get to bed, while Tank sleeps in his enclosure. Meanwhile, Rarity and James were already dressed for bed, James was in his undershirt and shorts as Rarity walks in the bedroom.
Rarity: How's my beauty star doing?
James: Doing just fine, my dear. You?
Rarity: Just dashing myself darling, this is going to be one night I'm going to enjoy, won't you agree Jamesy.
James: I can Rarity.
Rarity sat on her side of the bed, the two of them kissed before they go to bed. Meanwhile, Percy and Pinkie were having their last remaining sweets before bed.
Percy: Mhm, these sweets are the bomb, you make the best sweets in the world.
Pinkie Pie: Thank you Percy, and I can't believe that we're gonna have so much fun tomorrow!
Percy: I know right, well, let's get some sleep.
Pinkie Pie: Okay Percy!
She gave Percy a kiss on the cheek, and the two went happily to sleep, meanwhile, Applejack and Toby were also getting themselves ready for bed.
Applejack: I can't wait for tomorrow; I have faith that you can exceed in helping your friends stop those diesel scoundrels.
Toby: Thanks, I just hope it would be enough to stop him.
Applejack: Don't you worry sugarcube, if anything, we will be happy to assist you in your flight.
Toby: That would be most obliged.
The two hunkered down in their bed as they sleep until tomorrow. Meanwhile, in Twilight's house, Starlight, Emily, Nia & Rebecca were in the guest room sleeping before Emily woke up suddenly.
Starlight Glimmer: Emily, is everything okay?
Emily: Yeah, everything's fine but…
Rebecca: But what Emily?
Emily: I'm just worried if we lose the fight, what if the diesels win and we lose? What does that make us if we fail?
Starlight Glimmer: Emily, there's nothing to worry about. Your friends are tough soldiers especially Gordon and Thomas, those two are strong fighters. I have faith that you guys will win, trust me.
Nia: I second that. We won't lose Emily; you have our word.
Emily: Thanks you guys, that makes me feel much better.
The four girls soon fell back to sleep, and the Mane 7, Starlight and the Steam Team dreamed happily until tomorrow. The next morning, the diesels were nearly done making the school into their own image.
Diesel: Those fools who think they own the school will soon see that there's a new ruler of this land.
Class 40/Bowler: I must say, this is amazing work, one step closer to complete domination.
Diesel: Yes, you're right. Let's hope those pathetic Steamies won't interfere with our plan.
Around a clearing, the engines, Mane 7 along with Starlight were beginning their final training session, when Duck, Oliver & Boco arrived.
Duck: Hello you guys, uhh, what the heck are you guys doing?
Thomas: Oh hello Duck, uhh, this might sound a little crazy, but while me and my friends were camping out, Sunset and I found these geodes, when I handed them to my friends, they sorta gave them superpowers, observe.
The three see Edward making a birdhouse with scrap metal using his intellect, Henry sprouting out small trees, Gordon running at blazing speed, James skating in different places, Percy teleporting all over the place, Toby manipulating planks of wood, Nia powering up her weapons, Rebecca glowing with sun power and Emily showing emerald Shurikens from her hands. The three were shocked to see this.
Thomas: But I also have power.
They see Thomas glowing with his Gold Dust power.
Oliver: What in Great Western?!
Duck: Yeah, same here, brother.
Thomas: With this new powers, we may have a chance against Diesel from vandalizing the school.
Boco: I've heard of what's going on with those guys, and dare I say, they're just downright dimwits.
Duck: Agreed.
Thomas: The reason we're here is that we're beginning our final training session, just before our fight with Diesel.
Duck: Maybe we can help, I think with more of us helping you guys train, we could have a fighting chance against Diesel.
James: Let's just hope it's enough to stop him.
Emily: It will be enough James, as long as we work as a team, we will accomplish anything.
Thomas: Emily's right, with the right amount of power and teamwork, we can do anything than we can possibly dream.
Lady: Now that's what I like to hear from you Thomas.
From behind them, they see a familiar face, Lady appeared.
- Lady has pale yellow skin with golden wavy hair that reaches half her back, wearing a magenta Victorian style short dress with gold trimming on the collar and gold on the long loose sleeves, a dark purple petticoat with shimmer designs and reddish-purple, knee-high-heeled boots with dark purple lacing.
Thomas: Lady!
Lady: Hello Thomas, I see that you and your friends are testing your new powers, and to be honest, I'm actually impressed.
Thomas: Thanks, we couldn't have better teachers than the Mane 7.
The Mane 7 all blushed at what Thomas said, but Sunset was the one blushing the most.
Thomas: But we feel like it's not enough to stop Diesel, also what happened while you were in Equestria?
Lady: Well, Cadence is feeling better, but I'm still taking care of the Crystal Empire, until I was called to Canterlot by Celestia and I had to bring Cadence with me, that was until Diesel and his flunkies start trying to wreck the town, but we managed to put a stop to his plan.
Thomas: Well, at least that's a relief.
Percy: That must've been rude seeing the diesels wreck your town.
Lady: I know Percy, but with me, along with the other princesses, we can handle anything they threw at us.
Sunset Shimmer: I'm just glad everyone is safe, if they would've stayed any longer, they would've caused tremendous damage.
Lady: Very true, which is why you and your friends are our best shot at stopping Diesel from destroying the school.
Thomas: We know we will succeed in stopping him, right guys.
James: Umm, I guess.
Gordon: Same here.
Lady: Good, when will their training start.
Sunset Shimmer: I believe in the next few hours.
Lady: Perfect, at least everyone will have time to at least chit-chat until it begins. I believe we may have ourselves our new protectors.
Thomas: Well, I wouldn't say that, but, what the heck, we are the new protectors. Nothing will stand in our way of taking back the school.
All the while, everyone was prepared to take on the diesels, James and Gordon have their doubts if they'll succeed with Thomas leading the charge.
James: We'll be right back guys, me and Gordon just wanna have a private conversation between us.
Thomas: Don't take too long James.
James: We won't.
They went away from the group to another corner of the clearing.
Gordon: So, what is it that you want to talk about James.
James: Look, I appreciate that Thomas is taking the charge for all of us to be on our guard in case the Diesels go on the offensive, and at the same time, train us more to help us master our abilities, but there's something that's got me worried.
Gordon: And what would that be James?
James: What if this mission that Thomas leads us is doomed to fail, what do we say to him if it does?
Gordon: Well, if it does fail, you can guarantee that I will have some stern words for him when it's over. And I think you will do the same to him.
James: I know, but do we really have to go that far, ever since way before.
Gordon: I don't like it either, but it's something we gotta tell Thomas and remind him of his failures.
James: (Sighs) As much as I hate to do this to Thomas, but it's something we big engines must do.
Gordon: That's the old James I know, come on, let's join the others.
After their little talk, they head back to the others, unaware of Arry & Bert spying on their conversation.
Arry: Ha, did you hear that Bert?
Bert: I did, brother, Gordon & James are planning to tell Thomas off for his failures.
Arry: Yes, this is starting to get juicy, let's tell Diesel the news, he will be pleased.
Bert: Yes, he will.
As the two raced away to find Diesel, Thomas is handing Duck, Oliver & Boco three green geodes for them to keep.
Thomas: Here, you three might need these. These geodes grant you powers that you won't even believe.
Boco: Really, I would like to take a gander at this.
So, he took one of the geodes, leaving two left. It then formed a chain around his neck after it transferred its power to him, unaware to everyone.
Thomas: Duck, would you and Oliver like to keep one?
Duck: We would love to, but, since we know that those geodes grant you guys these powers, we don't want to venture into that territory yet.
Oliver: But we will keep these geodes, and when the next big bad shows up, we will be ready.
Duck and Oliver grabbed the two remaining geodes and put them in their pockets.
Thomas: That's what I like to hear, well then, let's get this training session started.
Lady: Allow me.
Lady used her magic to make a makeshift arena, but before she does anything, Boco approaches her.
Boco: Hold up Lady, allow me to lay out a plan for you.
Lady: A plan? What are you…
Before she can say anything else, Boco's forehead projected a holographic map for the training arena, everyone saw this was shocked out of their minds.
Boco: Before you build this arena, allow me to show you what it would really look like. Around the edges, will have seating, in case anyone will be interested in seeing. Around the center will be the actual arena, with some stuff inside to cushion any falls they have while they're fighting and around the edge, will be a white line and that will be the end zone, so if someone passes the line, they're out.
Edward: Well I'll be, looks like the geode gave you the same powers as me, but with another power as well, holographic projection.
Thomas: Whoa, this is nice, two of our friends with the brains to solve complex problems.
Lady: Well then, I'll follow your holographic map and once that's done, your arena will be ready for you guys to spar.
Percy: Alrighty then, let's get this arena built!
The Mane 7, Starlight, the Great Western duo, Boco, Lady, along with the Steam Team, work together to build their training arena, but one problem rose up.
Henry: Uhh, don't want to be a stick in the mud, but where are we gonna place our arena?
Sunset Shimmer: I know; we can place the arena where they had Starswirl's Music Festival.
Pinkie Pie: Ooh! This is the perfect spot for the arena! That's the best idea ever!
Thomas: Uhh, festival Sunset?
Sunset Shimmer: That's right Thomas, come here. I'll show you.
She showed Thomas pictures on her phone of the time Sunset and Pinkie attended the festival, Thomas was surprised to see Sunset's hairstyle in the pictures.
Thomas: Your hair looks smoother in these pictures.
Sunset Shimmer: (Blushes) Thanks Thomas, I've had my hair prepared for this occasion, and I loved every bit of it. I wish you were there to see this.
Thomas: I wish I was, it would've been awesome, along with our friends enjoying this.
Boco: So, the location where that festival took place will be where the arena will be stationed.
Sunset Shimmer: Yep, this will be where the arena will be placed.
Lady: Well then, let's get this arena built.
Everyone pitched in to help build their arena, even Duck & Oliver also helped. In a matter of minutes, the arena is ready.
Duck: I must say, this is one fine arena, color me impressed.
Thomas: Thanks Duck, well then, shall we get this match started.
Percy: We should, this is going to be epic, and once we finish this, we will stop Diesel once and for all.
Thomas: That's what I like to hear from you Percy, now then, let's battle.
All of them raced in the arena as their matchups are about to be set. To make it more interesting, Twilight brought out her drone to film the big event, Starlight and the Mane 7, along with the Great Western duo, arrived at the sidelines to watch the fight, while Boco and Lady arrived at the judging booth where they would see who comes out on top.
Rainbow Dash: Oh man, I'm so excited I can hardly wait!
Applejack: Same here partner, this is going to be good.
Sunset Shimmer: Do any of you guys have your picks to win, I say Thomas will win.
Rainbow Dash: No way, Gordon's speed will guarantee victory.
Starlight Glimmer: I'm sticking with Emily on this one.
Applejack: Toby's my pick.
Pinkie Pie: Ooh, the matchup is about to start! I'm so nervicited!
Starlight Glimmer: What?
Sunset Shimmer: Nervous and excited, she made up the word.
Starlight Glimmer: Really.
Boco: Welcome everyone to the annual Steam Team tournament, where me and Lady will find out which Steam Team will test their strength, might and their skills to find out who will win this tournament. For this one, we got a special fight just for you guys, for these first two matchups will be: James vs. Edward and Toby vs. Nia.
Rarity: Are you serious?
Twilight Sparkle: I don't think they're pulling our tail for this leg of the tournament.
Applejack: But this should be interesting to see.
Lady: Our first matchup to start will be James vs. Edward!
Twilight Sparkle: Ooh, this is going to be interesting.
Rainbow Dash: Yeah, especially the fact that Edward and James have a bit of a rivalry way before coming here, so let's hope that doesn't resurface.
BG Music: Death Battle- Invader
Boco: They're both the same type of engine with different personalities, but still strive to be really useful.
Lady: Well said Boco, like with James, the high and vain number 5 of the Steam Team!
Boco: And Edward, the old and wise number 2 of the Steam Team!
Lady: He's Boco and I'm Lady!
Boco: And it's our job to find out who will come out on top in this Steam Team tournament.
Lady: Let the fight begin!
Everyone watched as the matchup begins, it all started with Edward examining a mirror.
Edward: Hmm, with the right length and height, this will fit to the building's requirements.
Just then, James walked in and sees a mirror with Edward looking at it.
James: Ooh, is that a mirror I see. Well then, whenever there's a mirror, I must look at it to see my good side.
So, he ran towards the mirror and shoves Edward out of the way, as he admires himself in his reflection.
James: Oh, you are a handsome chap aren't you James, yes, I am!
Edward: Hey! What do you think you're doing! This is a mirror for the building's bathroom, not a mirror for you to pose yourself!
James: Sorry buddy, when it comes to me and mirrors, they're inseparable.
Edward: I'm giving you 5 seconds to get out of here, or else I'll resort to force.
James: Oh really, what are you gonna possibly…
And he got his answer as Edward shoves him towards a table and knocks it over as he fell back.
Edward: That's what.
James: Hey! (Growls) You're gonna get it old-timer.
Edward: I may be old, but I'll show that the old can beat the youth.
The battle begins as James leaps towards Edward to try to grab him, but Edward dodges and James rolls onto the ground looking back, he then jumps off a chair and deploys his all-terrain skates and starts gliding across the arena. Edward sees this and examines the area around him, he sees a car tire with a strong rope and some metal handles. He later got to work in making a flail. James is closing in on Edward, until he was hit by the flail and crashed into some hay bales. Luckily, the rubber of the tire didn't injure him, but it mostly sprained a few of his muscles.
James: What the, what the heck was that? (Thoughts) Ow, that hurt a little.
Edward: Sorry James, looks like you're about to be outclassed.
James: No chance.
James managed to get out in time before the flail smashed the bales, within 160-90 milliseconds. He continued skating across the arena, and every time Edward flung his flail, James dodges each attack, until his speed kicked in and he managed to trip up Edward and caused him to fall on his stomach. He then sees James coming at him, and he leapt out of the way before James' foot comes crashing down. Working his brain, Edward looks around and sees half-metal pipes and comes up with a plan. With his build speed, he managed to build something that will surprise James, but for him, he couldn't see behind the dust cloud, until it cleared and saw what he built. A metal loop-de-loop and the tracks lead to Edward at the end.
James: Oh really. Is that the best you can do Edward, I'll admit it's a nice loop, but are you really trying to make this easy.
Edward: You won't even know what will hit you when I'm done with you.
James: (Growls) Alright, that's it, you're going down.
He then sped towards the loop and as he finished the loop and head towards Edward, then there was trouble. Edward pulled the tarp that was covering something, and it was a giant punching glove that consists of tires. With a push of a button and at the right timing, James got punched by the glove in the gut and sends him passed the white line and crashed into sand bags, which caused two shelves holding paint cans to collapse and crash onto him. Everyone winced at the impact and the match declared Edward the winner.
Lady: Whoa, talk about a close call.
Boco: James may have the advantage in speed and agility, but Edward's brainpower and constructive mechanics gave him the edge to win this fight.
Lady: Looks like James' speed wasn't enough to win against the wise.
Boco: The winner is Edward.
Everyone cheered for Edward's victory, especially Twilight the most. Even James had to admit that Edward put up a good fight, as he gets through the pain he's experiencing. Thomas came in to heal James' injuries, when Rarity, Twilight and Edward arrived in his aid.
Twilight Sparkle: I must admit, you put up a good fight James
James: Yeah. (Groans) Congratulations Edward.
Edward: You too James.
Rarity: I'm proud of the both of you, my dears. You two put a truly divine battle, and I sincerely love it.
Thomas: Well James, let's get you cleaned up.
Edward: The next matchup will be Toby vs. Nia.
Twilight Sparkle: This is going to be so exciting. I wonder who's going to win.
They wouldn't have to wait long; the next matchup has just started and it's heated one. Toby was sending logs towards Nia, but her sword manages to slice them up in chunks. She then fired her arrow at Toby, and he revealed his wood dome, but the arrow hit, and exploded the dome and Toby was nearly sent flying out of the arena. He charged in with his wooden weapons as Nia whips out her Bo, and they clashed. They fought for what seems like a minute until Nia snaps Toby's sword in half, she then used her whip to wrap around Toby and sends him crashing into a pile of logs outside the arena. Everyone winced as the tournament declares Nia the winner.
A bonus fight was also aired between Rebecca & Emily. The fight begins with Rebecca firing yellow-charged blasts from her hands and Emily was dodging every one of them. She brought out her emerald ninja stars and threw them at her, which she blasts them to pieces. She then conjured up an emerald hoverboard and started firing emerald discs at her, but Rebecca dodges every one of them. She fired her sun beam at her hoverboard, which broke as Emily fell, but she saved herself with another hoverboard. She then fired another beam at her, but Emily made a shield around her to protect herself, but the beam is too powerful and broke the shield and sent Emily outside the arena and onto a cushioning pad. Everyone was worried for Emily, but she was fine, and the match declared Rebecca the winner.
Next up, the right side of the bracket featured Henry vs. Gordon and Thomas vs. Percy.
Lady: Man, we have some good matches from James vs. Edward, Toby vs. Nia to Rebecca vs. Emily.
Boco: I agree with you Lady, these two are harder to decide the victor.
Lady: I think we have one matchup that will make things real interesting.
BG Music: Death Battle- Invader
Boco: This will be a test of fortitude and the battle to see who comes out as the best.
Lady: You can say that again, like with Thomas, the leader of the Steam Team.
Boco: And Percy, the cute and cheerful number of the Steam Team.
Lady: He's Boco and I'm Lady!
Boco: And it's our job to analyze their abilities and find out who will come out on top in this tournament.
The stadium hushed as they watched from afar, Thomas was there, practicing his fighting and just as he was about to land his final kick, Percy teleported in and caught his foot.
Percy: You're getting a little sloppy on your training, which is why I've been a far more experienced fighter than you.
Thomas: Pff, please, if you think you're tougher than me, you got another thing coming.
Percy: Alright then, let's fight.
Thomas: You're on.
The battle begins with them trading blows, as everyone watched. Percy have been trying to lay a punch to Thomas but he couldn't seem to get a good impact until Thomas caught his fist.
Thomas: Hmph, you think my training is sloppy now.
He threw Percy across the arena until he crashed into a pile of barrels. Walking towards the broken pile, he saw that Percy wasn't there, until he felt a kick in the side of his face by Percy, he did a wheel kick. Dazed, Percy continuously used his teleportation to kick and punch to a standstill. Percy then teleported right in front of Thomas after he shook off the dizziness.
Percy: Yeah, still is sloppy. You might as well give up now, or else I might have to hurt you some more.
To Percy's surprise, he sees the punches that he laid on Thomas, completely disappeared due to his healing factor.
Thomas: You may think you've won, but I'm just getting started.
He powered up his arms and fired blasts of Gold Dust power at Percy which made him teleport all over the place to avoid the shots, but he lunged forward to throw a punch, but Thomas caught his arm and threw him into some crates. Before he can fire again, Percy teleported again and the process repeats. Then, the turning point, both Percy and Thomas were exhausted after their fight, but Thomas feels like he barely took any damage, thanks to his healing factor. Percy is feeling the impacts due to Thomas' punches.
Percy: You're a strong warrior, but you're still no match for me.
He tried to throw a punch but ultimately was caught by Thomas.
Thomas: Yes, you are strong, almost as strong as me, but I have the magic of a demigod, I cannot be hurt that easily.
He threw Percy in the air, and fired a Gold Dust beam which sends him flying towards a bunch of mattresses out of the arena. Once the fight is over, the matchup declares Thomas the winner.
In the last quarterfinal matchup, it was Henry and Gordon duking it out. Gordon used his speed, up to Mach 5, to try to disorient Henry, but Henry whips out vines from underground to try to grab Gordon, no matter how many tries, he was too fast. Gordon easily evaded the vines and even sped on them to strike at Henry. But Henry was ready, when Gordon came close to strike him, he brought up a tree and Gordon ran right into it, and with the vines, they grabbed onto Gordon and repeatedly slammed him into the ground and threw him sideways, which caused Gordon to crash into some crates outside the arena, which makes Henry, the winner of the tournament.
Everyone was cheering as the fights were going on and Thomas managed to heal up the winners for their next fights. The winners from the quarterfinals consists of: Edward, Nia, Rebecca, Thomas & Henry. The semi-finals are about to begin and the matchups are pretty interesting: Edward vs. Nia and Rebecca vs. Henry, but Thomas will get one bonus matchup, against Gordon. The fights are about to begin.
BG Music: Death Battle- Invader
Boco: Knowledge is power, and the knowledge needed to master any weapon takes some powerful skills, so let's test these skills against each other.
Lady: Too true, like with Edward, the old and wise number 2 of the Steam Team.
Boco: And Nia, the youngest African member of the Steam Team.
Lady: He's Boco and I'm Lady.
Boco: And it's our job to find out who will come out on top in this tournament.
The fight begins with Nia mastering her Bo staff when Edward arrived, not impressed.
Edward: Those sort of weapons is obsolete; you should know that by now.
Nia: Hey, it keeps to tradition in my country. Sounds like you need to be taught a lesson.
Edward: Gladly.
Nia charged with her staff, and Edward evaded her strike, he then uses a pipe to try to fight back her staff. They managed to clash, but the pipe broke from various strikes. Edward immediately went into crafting a new weapon, he managed to create a shield and a lance. And he went back into the fight, but Nia was ready, she sends an orange plasma wave towards him. One strike was enough to send Edward crashing through some wood planks out of the arena, which gave Nia the win.
The next battle was Rebecca vs. Henry, he fired a bunch of vines at Rebecca that tangled her up, and before they chuck her out of the arena, her sun power radiated and burned through them which freed her, her temperature would've exceed about 90 degrees or more. He fired sun beams at Henry which he dodged, he later stomped the ground which sprouted a giant flower under her. Rebecca used this as a launch pad, which she needs to send a relentless wave of sun power at Henry. He tried to hold on, but ultimately, he was sent flying out of the arena, which gave Rebecca the win.
The bonus fight has Thomas fight against Gordon, he used his speed to make Thomas dizzy, but it didn't faze him. He jumped in the air and smashed the ground with his fist which sends a shockwave that knocked Gordon off his feet, while the shockwave didn't kill Gordon, his healing factor helped him from any injuries thanks to some connection with the Speed Force. The blast wave from that shockwave would've traveled around the speed of sound, about 738 mph. He charged at Thomas and start delivering punch after punch, but every time, he kept dodging and later, grabbing Gordon's arm and throwing him down onto the ground, and with one more swing, he threw Gordon and blasted him out of the arena.
It all comes to the finale: Nia vs. Rebecca vs. Thomas.
Boco: This is the homestretch people, the battle of all battles, this is the tournament finale! Bring out the fighters.
One by one, each of the fighters arrived at the arena and the crowd cheered for the fighters, but Sunset was cheering for Thomas the most, she was happy that Thomas made it this far. They soon brought their fists together before their big battle begins.
Thomas: Well, we made it this far, may the best fighter win.
Nia: You too Thomas.
Rebecca: Same here, let's have some fun while we're at it.
Thomas: Agreed.
Lady: This will be one exciting matchup, the winner of this will be the best fighter. Fighters ready!
The fight begins with Nia charging towards Thomas with her staff, but he managed to catch it just in time. With enough strength, he swung Nia around to where the crates are, in which she crashed into them. Rebecca then fired her sun blasts at Thomas and he fired his beam. The beams collided and clashed for a minute, then there was trouble, the beams are creating a small ball of energy until it exploded. It shook the stadium as a dust cloud floated around. Everyone was wondering who was safe and out. When the dust cleared, it showed Thomas with half his body out of the arena while Rebecca is beyond the line.
Boco: Oh, Rebecca is close to knocking Thomas out of the arena, but it knocked herself out as well, putting Rebecca in 3rd place.
Rebecca: Oh well, at least I had fun being a part of this.
Thomas: Alright then, I'm back in the game.
Nia: Well, not for long you're not.
Thomas: Let's get this over with Nia, looks like you're getting tired.
Nia: I'm hardly tired, I'm just getting warmed up.
The two circled each other until they clashed. She tried to slash him with her sword, but his Gold Dust power protects him from anything that attacks him, almost like an enveloped force field. He then kicked her sword out of her hand, and sends her back with another kick. She revealed her bow and fired an arrow, but Thomas' sent a gold power ball at the arrow which exploded and sent them back a couple of feet. The explosion caused Nia to disarm her bow, she then pops out her Bo staff and charges at Thomas as they resume the fight. They fought for what seems like a minute, she managed to get a good hit on Thomas and sends him crashing into some barrels. Thomas unleashed a beam of gold at Nia which sends her out of the arena and crashing into some wood planks. The tournament is over and Thomas is the champion. Everyone cheered for Thomas' victory and Sunset hugged him tight, he almost couldn't breathe. But their victory will soon be put to the test when they have one opponent to take care of: Diesel.
Thomas: Well then, I guess this arena is a big success, now all we have to deal with is Diesel, once we get to the school, we will defeat him once and for all.
Percy: Yes, it's go time.
At the final leg, they start slow walking as they come out of the arena, but James is doing his dance walk, that doesn't impress the others.
Author's Note: Hey viewers, if you guys see some factual lines for the fights, I tried to pull off a Wiz & Boomstick, but I know I'm not gonna be a big pro like them. If you guys are as knowledgeable like those two, put in your gauges to scale just how powerful the Steam Team is with their powers, and that also falls in line with the other characters from the Thomas franchise.
