MoC: Hey guys, I want to say thanks again for the 5 reviews. I'm getting into the story and I'm glad that you guys are as well.
Percy: Enjoy! Master of Chaos only owns the plot.
Far away on the island of Sodor things weren't as bright and sunny as in the valley. Thomas, Percy, and Toby were hard at work on the Knapford-Ffarquhar branch line moving passengers and stone as hard as they could. Thomas was getting tired just like the other two engines. Percy had just finished bringing many heavy freight cars filled with stone to a siding near Knapford when James and Edward puffed up alongside.
"Hello Percy, is our train ready?" Edward asked after Percy was uncoupled from the cars.
"Pah! As if a small green engine like Percy could have gotten our train together on time." James snorted.
"For your information James, Thomas and I worked all morning bringing these cars here. I just finished bringing the last of the cars when you showed up." Percy said with some annoyance. James just huffed and got at the front of the train.
"I don't see why I have to pull cars, I'd look much more splendid puffing along with some clean coaches being pulled behind me." James said as he waited for Edward.
Edward and Percy looked at each other and sighed at James' vanity. Edward got behind the train and the two mixed-traffic engines puffed slowly out of the station. Percy puffed off quickly to fetch Gordon's coaches for the express when he saw Harold.
"Hello Percy, how are you today?" The helicopter asked.
"Hello Harold, I'm doing good, everyone's been very busy due to the summer rush. Even Sir Topham Hatt has taken a trip with his family. " Percy says as he shunts the coaches to the platform.
"Indeed, I've been flying all over the island making sure that no accidents have happened. Speaking of which I must be off. Goodbye Percy and keep up the good work." Harold says as he flies away.
Thomas was enjoying himself immensely as he rushed down the line pulling Annie and Clarabelle. He rushed up Gordon's hill, dashed through Henry's tunnel, and zoomed over the viaduct. The passengers were enjoying themselves as they took in the scenery. Thomas was busy thinking though once he finished pulling passengers for the day and was resting in a siding. It had been quite a few years since he'd last seen Lady, he remembered fondly of the time they stopped Diesel 10 from destroying the railway. After that his friends Lily and Patch had travelled from their home in Muffle Mountain to the Island of Sodor every summer for many years. They had both become great railway engineers and helped maintain the magic railroad that connected their worlds. Thomas also remembered two other people who helped keep the railway safe, they were like nothing Thomas had ever seen before wielding the magic of the gold dust to aid him and Lady in their flight away from Diesel 10. He still remembered the guy offering Diesel 10 a final chance of forgiveness and was willing to save him from falling into the barge. Diesel 10 refused to accept help from a steamy helper and he fell down into the barge.
"Hello Thomas, having a quick rest?" Rosie the pink tank engine asked as she pulled up alongside.
"Hi Rosie, yeah I was resting, and thinking too." Thomas replied.
"Really? What were you thinking about?" Rosie asked.
Thomas looked at the sky and smiled. "I was thinking about the time when I helped save the magic railroad."
Rosie smiled and was about to respond when a bad feeling washed over her firebox. "Thomas, I think something bad is gonna happen if I don't get off or this line soon." Thomas quickly backed up a little on the siding and Rosie backed in. Right when the points were switched back and Rosie had stopped they heard something that made Thomas' wheels and coupling rods tremble. Duck was puffing along the other line heading in the opposite direction that Rosie had been going when they heard it.
"GET OUT OF MY WAY! I'M BACK TO FINISH WHAT I STARTED AND I'M GONNA FINISH IT NOW!" A massive and sinister voice yelled as an olive BR Class 42 "Warship" Diesel engine roared past the three engines and snapped the hydraulic claw on the roof of its cab. Rosie trembled and shook even after the diesel had disappeared down the line.
"Cinders and ashes, Diesel 10 is back!" Thomas exclaimed as he helped push Rosie out of the siding. Percy suddenly raced up behind Thomas.
"Thomas! Diesel 10 is back!" Percy exclaimed.
"I know Percy, he just roared past here." Thomas said as he wondered what to do.
"It's worse than that." Stepney the bluebell engine said as he puffed up. "I just saw Iron Arry and Iron Bert talking with Diesel and two other diesels like them."
"Splatter and Dodge." Thomas says as he couples up to Percy and Rosie. "We have to warn the other engines." Thomas says as he moves the two tank engines back to Tidmouth station. Later that night all of the steam team were gathered around the turntable at Tidmouth Sheds. Thomas and Percy were warning them that Diesel 10 was back and to be very careful. As they all went into a nervous sleep Thomas couldn't help but wonder aloud.
"Lady, Lily, Patch, Mr. Conductor, Junior, where are you?"
MoC: There you have it guys, Diesel 10 has arrived on Sodor along with the bumbling duo known as Splatter and Dodge. Also, don't expect just Thomas characters and the OC's shown, I plan on adding many more OC's in the not too far future, but they are my own. Now, let's get on with the reviews.
