News had spread fast on the island of sodor about a ghost of Emily's sibling. Most of the engines were very respectable and did not tease her one bit. Anytime Emily sees her she has begun getting visions of what Charlotte would say when they next meet. This brought certain scare to walt and sir topham hatt but most importantly thomas who was sick to the boiler seeing his girlfriend going through trauma and sensitivity to the topic of her sister. One night Thomas and Emily were sleeping in Knapford sheds. The sheds at tidmonth was having a new undercoat. So the engines had to sleep somewhere else. Thomas was suddenly woken to find Emily having trouble sleeping and uncomfortable feelings. In her dreams she sees some demons trying to control her which makes her scared and feel flames not going through her smokebox but for the same fate Charlotte has. This made Emily wake up painting, gasping for air to see if she's alive. Luckily she is. Thomas woke up to the scream and saw emily even if she saw her again. She's getting worse but I might need help to see what's going on in her mind. and Thomas is now worried for her more than ever and he decided to help Emily but how. The next day, Thomas was traveling along his branchline when he saw Walt who had stopped to deliver goods for the branchline. Thomas knew Walt very well; he was a autistic engine and had different features to other engines but he can do visions of others which made him wonder if he is just the engine for the job.

Hello Thomas, you look wonderful on your branchline.

Walt could see Thomas' expression. Thomas, are you ok? Walt said nervously.

It's Emily. I don't know what's gotten into her ever since her sister appeared on the mail train. She had started to feel weird things in her sleep like nightmare sorts. It kinda bothers me a little

. Are you saying that Emily might be going through some sleep troubles? Walt said seriously.

I'm afraid so replied thomas.

I'll see what i can do said walt but for now i will be …

it's at knapford sheds interrupted thomas.

Ok walt said and he puffed away to finish his work.

Thomas hoped that this trouble would heal sooner than expected. That night Thomas explained to Emily what Walt was doing tonight.

Oh so he is going to be my bodyguard, said Emily jokingly

although she was teasing but Thomas gave her a knowing look.

Walt is going to watch you sleep, his visions know everything about the past, present and future ahead said Thomas Just give Walt time he will explain the results when he needs to.

OK said Emily i just hope these nightmare trauma would stop so quickly.

soon Walt arrived and he brought his food for the night.

Engines don't eat food. Why do you have those bananas and a pancake? said Emily curiously.

My food system is like a human base, most engines have coal and water while I have a food system in my boiler so that I can keep running answered walt.

Emily was impressed.

Alright I will let you talk about anything you want and as soon as you fall asleep i will get started.

Soon Thomas and Emily chatted for a while until they said goodnight to each other and fell asleep. Walt began his vision like no other. He started to see things in the past and the present and as soon as Walt saw things in his head he suddenly appeared in an illuminated world where Emily was in her dreams. Emily had an angel who was suffering badly and sat helpless in the sidings.

That's why Emily started being bossy in the beginning ,he thought to himself

Walt puffed towards Emily's angel and started to see that it was crying from a troubled past. Hello i am Walt and i have come to help you in peace said walt calmly. The suffering angel looked at him and saw the eyes within him so she gave a nod and she explained everything to walt.

He listened closely to every little detail then when she finished Walt gave her solid advice on what not to do and what was in the past stayed in the past.

I suppose you're right, said the angel but there is another part of me I would like to show you.

This made Walt nervous but put a brave face on. Let's see where trouble lies, he said bravely and they both puffed right towards the other half of Emily's dream.

When they got there was a little bit of darkness. Walt knew this so he had his lamp on for this. There was a naive engine that looked like Emily but worse waiting for them.

Well well well an unexpected visitor to torment emily said the demon grinning

Torment replied walt i am here to get you out of Emily and leave the island alone.

Ooh I am so scared, replied the inner demon sarcastically. You could think you have everything controlled. Trust me, I know a lot more than you.

You got a point but why do this to Emily, replied walt.

The inner demon just smiled grimly. Emily is a wise and cheerful engine but I knew it had to take her in dark side form and thanks to Gordon and James I got her under my control. It was easy just like a sailor got cursed by the shadow of a ring pirate.

I can defeat you but not easy and it will take days for this but i will not give up on my home or my friends around me with such threats including you.

Charming said the inner demon but some engines like duncan and one other engine is already making rude remarks about emily.

You lied, replied walt.

I am afraid not in fact why don't you see within your scope. My scope Walt looked right at the inner demon and saw a power he never had before.

It was Duncan talking rudely to Peter Sam about big steam engines.

That is not true. Peter sam said big engines have a lot of coal plus run an extra mile.

Pah snorted, Duncan James is the only engine I respect but Emily has the pure taste of the Scottish but she is just her way of being clumsy and being a lazy kettle on wheels a bit shellfish if you get my meeting.

That sent Peter Sam overboard and puffed away in a huff. Duncan just smirk and finished off his work and said the ghost is all but a load of rubbish nonsense.

Walt was horrified but knew that it was true. I don't believe it, replied walt.

If you didn't think that was enough old bagpipe then why don't you see another engine saying rude things to her said the inner demon.

Ok but no tricks said walt. The inner demon took Walt's words and agreed and showed him what the other engine was.

Walt could not believe it. The tank engine twins bill and ben were talking among themselves about sir topham hatt's railway being strict and having no fun they also said rude remarks about Gordon, James and one engine that hit the most was Emily. Since the news about the ghost they were laughing non stop.

Emily should be scrapped for laughs, said Bill . Ben stopped laughing at that. He knew that was a serious matter and should not be taken for granted.

Bill what the hell, Emily is one of the best Scottish engines we had. sure we had caused that accident that thomas was in caused us to be stuck in the sheds for a whole season and him to be taking to the works but do you think scrapping her is the worst decision you could make said Ben crossly

bill thought for a moment. You do get a point but i still distaste everything you said otherwise sir topham hatt is just a wannabe for the family that is strict what a poor way to treat us and his family is nothing to me. Ben was shocked over the words that bill said.

Ben just kept doing his work while Bill decided to be a lazy engine like Fred and went to sleep instead.

Walt saw the vision he was insufferable. You are right about those engines but let me tell you this. I may be talking to an inner demon while you suffer Emily to the worst level but I can still beat you till death do us part.

The inner demon got a satisfying look but he had a friendly demonized face that looked horrid

. A demon engine controlling sodor protective but at least you had to go through Jane. Jane was your girlfriend right. Oh she was so beautiful. I was glad to meet her and even though this our first meeting. It's always the suffering I became The best part is that you watched her die in a horrifying way especially with passengers on board .

stop that immediately, replied Walt.

Oh come now I was just teasing but at least I took control of her too.

Walt gasped in a fright. What Walt said furiously .

Now if you will excuse me i have to begin the nightmares for Emily however i do have one more surprise for you, and he summoned forth a spiteful jane rushing towards him in a demonized way which made walt waking up painting.

Thomas heard Walt waking up.

Walt, are you ok said thomas.

Walt wasted no time and buffered up to thomas. Sorry I have to do this to you, said walt. What's going on, replied thomas. Within three seconds Thomas was transferred from the ground up and landed onto Emily's line.

Before Thomas could say a single sentence Walt pushed Thomas up to Emily who was almost ready to begin a crippling fear. Thomas coupled onto Emily and he saw the fears in her eyes she was about to moan until a kiss broke that moan and pain. Which made Emily put a smile on her sleepy face. And started to dream more about Thomas saving her from the past.

While Emily was doing that, Thomas spoke to Walt quietly.

Walt what the actual hell was that about gasped thomas.

We have to tell sir topham hatt in the morning. The inner demon came to Emily and started to create nightmares that were unbearable to speak on even when she was in her bossy moods that demon stills lives inside emily and became out of control after charlotte appeared that one night

i think i will uncouple her after that experience said thomas

Don't you even Fucking dare said walt firmly. She is only going to get worse when she does not have a partner meaning buffer to buffer we're trying this out to see that she doesn't wake up from her nightmares.

Thomas completely understood. What else did you see in your vision, replied thomas.

She is still waking up from nightmares and going back to sleep which is repeatable at night. and Walt explained everything to Thomas about how he saw the suffering angel that looked kind and cheerful now depressed as ever. And two engines that are saying nasty things to her. Thomas was shocked and cross but kept in at his emotions.

That explained everything but what do we do now?

Sleep with her for now buffer to buffer and keep her close. She's going to need that otherwise it's going to get for worse, said Walt calmly. You also need to get some rest too. You have a branchline to run coming up and passengers to visit.

Thomas smiled at Walt. I will try my best to keep Emily asleep.

Ok now anytime you hear Emily feeling a moan or any sound that is painful be on her side at all times it might be for one night but for me I need to figure out how to defeat the inner demon myself. I will be going now, take care, said Walt and he puffed quietly to the nearest shed.

Thomas did stay with Emily and he did not move one bit. The next morning Emily woke up to find Thomas right in front of her coupled up but Emily was not cross with him she just smiled.

He is so beautiful when he sleeps even when he sleep whistles it's always peaceful to have him hear at knapford sheds.

Emily kissed him which made Thomas wake up.

Oh morning emily. Yawned thomas.

I see you decided to sleep buffer to buffer with me. Yeah well it was Walt who got the idea so that you won't have any more nightmares. I better uncouple you now but until then if you want me to sleep buffer to buffer again i will do just that.

Emily blushed and gave Thomas one final kiss and both set off to work.

Meanwhile, Walt just woke up to see Emily smiling. Morning walt he said passing by oh morning emily. Said walt. Hope you slept well. I did as a cuddle fox replied Emily and she went to do her work.

Walt on the other hand puffed out of the sheds to find sir topham hatt. Thomas who was just coupled to her faithful coaches annie and clarabel knew he had to tell sir topham hatt soon but when and how was the question going to be length but thomas knows that walt would have it taken care of.

Sir topham hatt sat in his office inside thinking about Emily's ordeal when he heard a whistle. Walt came puffing into the station. Henry and Duck were also there chatting about the kipper ordeal until Walt came into view.

Oh walt, just the engine I wanted to see, he said.

Oh boy everytime he wants to see an engine a job is prepared for us said Walt to the camera.

I would like you to stay with emily with Thomas at knapford sheds for at least 3 nights said sir topham hatt.

Yes sir replied walt.

I also know that you have been seeing visions of nightmares very recently. Walt knew he had to tell him of what's been going on with Emily very recently. Would you like to explain to me what you have been seeing lately sir topham hatt said .

Walt took a deep breath and explained what happened last night. He saw the inner demon plus 2 rude engines who were speaking very rude about Emily even threatening her with scrap plus the inner demon was planning to rule her to be bossy again like she was back when James and Gordon started to bully and tease her around. This made sir topham hatt very cross.

If you want me to take the scrap train to the ironworks today I would be grateful to do that as well said walt proudly.

Henry and Duck were shocked. Now arry and bert are ruthless menacing looking diesels but they are tamed now ever since arry saw the scrap engines and bert heed the specter's warning and took it by the heart. Sir topham Hatt was very concerned for Walt but he made sure to compress.

Uhh sure Walt, he said but just one question. Sure I have time for one question, anything for you sir, said walt. Who were the 2 rude engines he asked.

Henry and duck Walt said. We know the answer, Duck said. He puffed away to fetch his train. Henry on the other hand stayed behind. After Walt said the 2 engines named sir topham hatt looked stern.

That will be all walt hurry along and fetch your train. And walt did, leaving Henry thinking on what to say to Peter Sam the next time they met.

Walt soon gathered the train and headed off to the iron works. The scrap trucks who were the worst behaved to the engines but with Walt they did well with him and managed quite smoothly. James, who was stopping nearby, saw Walt with orange flames in his eyes remembering his scheme towards Emily and Thomas. The red engine remained respectfully silent Even Edward, Rebecca, percy and toby saw this and they thought best that percy would talk to walt after his train was done . When Walt went to the iron works he was greeted by the two diesels.

Hello walt, how was your trip? Arry said warmly

A bit fine but I need your guys' help.

Oh what for bert said grimly. Not to scrap an engine of course,

no not that but to get rid of an inner demon, said walt.

Arry and Bert were confused. Did you say inner demon.

Yes, Walt said.

Arry and Bert looked at each other.

You are a converted engine but no one wants to know what the actual inner demon has to offer said bert.

The inner demon is no friend of mine, said walt. All it wants to do is cause chaos, especially harm.

Bert looked at walt. We can help you since we are your friends but you are a demon engine that is willing to protect us from any harm even when we have ups and downs you will take it at risk.

Thanks Bert. I know how to shape shift into different forms but put them together is a risk that I am willing to take. But also how to make a position to put in action that remains nameless.

Walt is a demon engine, said a quiet voice. It was Percy you have been listening to the conversation he had just brought empty cars to the ironworks and he could hear Walt and the twins talking.

Sodor is home to all shapes in sizes so whatever i do i can protect anybody even in dreams in visions.

Well let's get to work protectors of all sodor said arry smiling

Percy said nothing and puffed away.

No time was wasted, the actions were set. And Walt completed every task he had to stand against the inner demon but there was one task he had to complete. Becoming a demon engine. Now the demon engine is with hands and feet colliding together which walt had. He hasn't learned this trick yet.

Come on, said arry. Do it for sodor.

Walt did soon Walt's feet were standing tall, his hands were showing and his full demon was showing his eyes was full orange, teeth were sharp, looking horrid and he was fully transformed. He demonstrated a scrapped engine and threw it into the molten lava.

Arry and Bert were impressed

how well I did, said Walt in a demonic voice.

Your voice has changed, said arry and you did great kid. Now can you please turn back into your normal self please before anyone sees you bert added.

Walt did and he thanked the twins now for the potion and he puffed away out of the ironworks. Arry and bert were happy to see they have an inner demon on Sodor to have protection on anybody.

Let's get back to work and the ironwork twins did.

Percy saw Walt and decided to follow him.

Hey walt he said. Hello Percy, I heard everything the twins said. Walt stopped suddenly. Percy he said kindly the reason you heard everything was because Emily had an inner demon inside of her and i am planning to get rid of it so that it does not go towards everyone on sodor even you. Percy is confused about

what's an inner diamond he said innocently

Inner demon corrected Walt. It's an engine who has bad thoughts which causes evil and chaos and harm to anyone, sometimes being bossy.

Percy knew what that meant. Does this mean Emily is getting worse? Asked Percy.

Listen Percy , the task is very dangerous. I don't want you to be part of it. You could get hurt or worse. But in your answer yes she is. Thomas and Emily are the only couple that I have to deal with right now please as your brother. Leave the situation to me if you can't control it. Hug Emily as long as you can so that I have time to destroy the inner demon once for all.

Percy completely understood. He agreed but told Walt to be very careful. Walt puffed on feeling confident.

That afternoon Thomas was puffing down his branchline when he saw Walt having a drink.

How did it go? Asked thomas.

It went as pretty well just as I suspected, replied Walt.

Oh that's nice, Thomas said

but I have to stay with you and Emily for the next three days starting tonight continued walt. Sir topham hatt's orders.

Thomas grew worried but Walt reassured. As long as what I'm doing I will be pretty fine.

What food did you bring tonight? Said Thomas cheekily

I had pancakes last night and today is Tuesday so I will have Mexican dishes.

Thomas was impressed. Just then the guard whistle blew. Well i'm off good luck tonight and he puffed away.

Walt looked concerned but then he had a potion ready for him to try. So he set off to try the position.

As evening rose ahead Emily had just got done with being the safety engine. When he saw Walt being prepared for the dream.

Hello walt and ooh what do i see right behind you gasped emily.

It's a potion I am trying for the first time. I will not test it until you go to sleep.

Emily looked down in her buffers but at least she understands what Walt sees in her dreams.

Can you tell me what you saw in your first dream?

Walt told her that it was going to be a long story so it will be a couple of days.

Emily understood. As soon as Thomas got back from the passenger train they started to chat for a while.

Emily saw the Mexican dish. it was chips and queso with chicken quesadilla that was for Walt and she was amused.

As soon as they were asleep the journey started. Walt got back into Emily's mind and saw Emily's angel captive locked in the shed. He unlocked her and she was relieved that Walt was here.

I was worried that you were going to show up. The inner demon locked me in here like a dog beaten and unhealed.

And Emily's angel let Walt look at her. There were burnt marks on her tender and her buffers. What made it worse is Emily's angel had no funnel which made Walt feel bad. It made Walt tough to see a friend going through it.

It's ok just as long as you are with me then we get through it, said walt.

The angel smiled. Let's defeat this demon once and for all she said. I smiled what's behind me. And we puffed together.

The inner demon was more powerful than ever and saw Walt coming in his way.

Well I never thought you could come clear to me the next night.

I have been trained for the night some you may never saw coming thanks to my two diesel partners in crime.

The inner demon was shocked. Friends with diesels oh please you never thought to live with your original girlfriend.

Walt was more pissed than ever. Oh now you fucking done it. And he transformed into his demon form Which made the inner demon looked shocked and horrified.

Walt had the angel made her own shed which she was impressed with.

It may get bloody but i promised it wil be fucking worth it.

The inner demon started to transform into his true form which hasn't aged and looked horrified. Walt looked concern but had contempt.

I am willing to do this shit all day but this could be a full prize of Emily recovering.

And the two of them started to fight even though the fight started to be strong. It took at least 3 minutes throwing fire flames, possessing engines, and even a willingness to throw a brick of shed used from another building to get on with the flame.

You look tough to see a strong engine like you said the inner demon.

But in my friends blood I am not giving up on your dead ass, especially going back where you came from.

Then they started to fight once more. The angel was looking in there seeing the fight in amazement . this kept going on for about a minute and a half until walt saw emily's controls on her feelings walt immediately puffed up on there. Threw a hard brick on the inner demon which made him cautioned.

And started to put a glass in there to control so that none could be damaged.

Emily was still sleeping in her shed but Percy was there seeing Walt himself and needed help but he remembered not to get hurt so he watched.

Put a control so that does not damage how undignified of you said the inner demon sternly.

You started to sound like gordon but unworthy of a pissed off demon trying to control Jane in the first place.

We may not get along. I get to have you instead of emily from now on.

The inner demon started to buffer walt and started to push walt to his unknown world.

Percy knew he had to do something so he buffered up to emily. Walt saw his fatal demise but when he heard someone coming to Emily's mind he had to stop.

Walt can you hear me, said a voice. Percy I said.

I know you might be in there throughout half the night. But I just want to say that I care so much for you. Even though you are much more than a demon engine yourself that protects our island, you're the guardian of all engines and I love that Thomas and Emily are striving but because of you I am still willing to call Emily my mother of all trades.

Suddenly the inner demon started to glitch and that was a sign of victory to walt.

I love you walt as my brother of protection. Please defeat the demon please I don't want my brother to die, continue percy plus I can't live without my mummy. And Percy kissed Emily's cheek which made the inner demon jolt.

no no it said what's happening to me. Mother and son bondage together bitch.

His hands started showing and legs started showing and he started to breathe fire which made the inner demon quivering in fear. This is for Jane and for my friend. The inner demon started to question his own mind but Walt grabbed the inner demon and started to flame the demon with his own hands.

Wait no please i won't take over any engine again please spare me. Spare nothing you son of a bitch walt said and he continued to cook the demon up. The eyes started to come off. Blood from the demon's face started to show and Walt took the biggest breath ever and blew a hot fire right at the demon.

The inner demon screamed from buffer to buffer, his paint started to rust, his coal started up with extra steam, his buffer melted and his funnel was taken off. The inner demon was no more after a few glimpses. The angel was quick out of the sheds.

What if the demon comes back. It aint coming back, said walt. The Inner demon was placed under the fire pits of the scrapyards to rust and it is going to be in there for a long time. Also it vanishes after a few seconds more. The angel was quick to agree.

Now let's get this place cleaned up. Soon afterwards walt made sure that everything was in backing order and the angel got back her funnel.

She was also repainted into normal colors as she once was but then she still saw the demon form of walt.

Oh walt you're still in a demon form, can i least see you in normal form said the angel. I forgot about that he thought and walt turned back into a normal engine and started to more brightly with the angel himself.

I guess everything is back to normal walt said as Emily's controls were back to normal.

It is indeed said by the angel. I wish i called you sooner but we were too scared for who you are.

Walt smiled. Never fear me, he said. I will always protect every engine I call my family to keep this place alive and true to it's legacy that also means visions too. That made the angel smile.

Well better get going and keep Emily happy and he went as if by magic. The angel smiled as he went back into the real world.

Thomas was in the shed with Emily when Walt came out of her visions smiling.

The job is done and no more demons will be coming over to anyone now he said to thomas.

How did you manage? asked thomas. I had help along the way, one particular green engine of course.

Thomas looked out and saw Percy puffing away. Thank you walt hopefully this will manage quite nicely.

I think I need to talk with percy. I will be back tonight I promise. And with that walt puffed away.

Percy was about heading back to the sheds when Walt came to see him.

Oh walt how were you doing said percy.

That was the bravest thing you said percy even if i was in there i could not have done it without you. How did you manage to hear me?

Emily's eyes of course while I was beating the demon. Percy smiled.

Because of your help, said walt. I decided to help you with the mail tomorrow since it will be busy over there.

Percy smiled, he knew he asked for help and now he got it. I will ask sir topham hatt tomorrow just in case to see if that's ok with you , continued walt.

Thanks Walt, the guardian of all engines.

And one more thing percy.

Percy stopped suddenly and saw he was floating from his track into walt's track. He was about to say anything else when he buffered up to him. This is my way of saying thank you. He gave him a steaming hug filled with comfort.

Now let's get you to tidmonth shall we said walt happily . and he pushed percy to tidmonth sheds where he can sleep.

The next morning walt woke up to fine that emily did not wake up from any nightmares which was a blessing in the engines eyes thomas especially he stayed up at least half the night to see if emily had no nightmares and thankfully she didn't and sir topham hatt let thomas rest for the day and Emily took Thomas's job as well as her own. Walt kinda feels proud but he is wondering about what would happen to Duncan and bill. Walt was soon taking the mail train as promised for Percy and sir topham hatt agreed.

He was puffing down the line when he saw Millie down the line with Luke as her banker. Walt thought to himself to see a vision of what happened that day but before he could finish his delivery he saw Ben with Timothy taking a special train to brendam docks.

It was filled with special antiques that were part of a museum to the mainland. Walt made the decision to ask sir topham hatt the next time he sees him. But Walt did not make the chance until the following day. He was taking stone cars to the docks when he saw sir topham hatt walking towards him.

Well Walt i see that you cured Emily right up and she has been cheerful all day. You are a very useful engine and a credit to the railway.

Thank you sir but what happened to bill and Duncan said walt.

Sir topham hatt gave him something . After work put this on to see what happened to them he said.

Walt agreed and he puffed away. That night Emily was all happy and cheerful that he felt glad she could sleep through the night. Walt came back to the shed and Emily greeted him warmly. I can not tell you how grateful I am for saving me, she said. That's an engine I know I could trust more often.

How did you know that I saved you from your nightmares? said Walt.

Percy told me yesterday replied Emily, he said that you killed my inner demon but how did you find out.

Since you and Charlotte had a meetup your angel told me to come in there to destroy that engine that was controlling you. Thankfully I did after what he did to my friend who was killed with passengers on board which gutted me the most he said to Emily. Jane was also my lover too but it was too complicated to say it years later. Jane was the first engine I met and Ian was my brother.

Emily was shocked he knew Walt was a kind soul but never did he witness something so harsh. Ian never told me Jane died until I found out on my own within my vision. I cried for days on end. That moment stayed with me for years. I came to sodor years before after stepney came to the railway. I was never seen until Thomas spotted me shunting for the other engines.

Emily could see his sorrow growing but Walt stopped immediately . But.. it never let me down saying that I was reminded of Jane and what she would do to pull trucks and coaches. I guess Jane was a very lovely engine to you.

You have your boyfriend Emily but I will have one eventually. He finished with a memory he had with Jane right before he left for sodor. I always promised everything to her and I am going to keep her happy just as long as my heart goes anywhere. Emily smiled at that.

Get some sleep emily. you have work to do in the morning of being a safety engine said walt calmly

One more thing, where is Thomas asked Emily .

He's staying in the sheds of tidmonth facing a punishment tomorrow said walt sadly after he told Bertie that they should race again and did just that which led to complaints from the passengers. I am taking over his branchline duties as part of his punishment. The bus company also told Bertie he is to do quarry duty until he can be trusted again after a week in the bus depot for that as well.

Emily was surprised that walt will be taking over his branchline which was a sense of relief but also cross that thomas broke the safety rule but he will talk to Thomas in the morning.

Oh Thomas, what am I going to do with you she murmured. Hey you had your hard days work now get some good rest be our safety engine tomorrow so that you can protect the line said walt. I am going to stay up a little longer because I have a video to watch that sir topham gave me.

Oh ok at least you're my shed partner tonight and thank you for everything. emily kissed walt one on his left cheek, one on his nose one one on his right cheek and the other one his chin. sleep well guardian of all engines.

walt smiled And Emily went to sleep. After 10 minutes Emily was in a deep sleep which made Walt put on the video and in that video it said scolded to an engine that can't obey orders number something and in that video it showed bill and Duncan. Walt was impressed. And this is the moment where Walt was watching.

Walt was soon transported to the quarry to see a blue car towards the sheds. That car was sir topham hatt and he looked at bill crossly.

Bill I have been told by one of my engines that you have been teasing Emily and thought of scrapping her i will not tolerate that on my railway he said angrily

. Bill got caught but he tried to talk out of it. Sir, I was just joking around. said bill I never meant to...

Joke or no joke. Emily is going through some hard times and didn't show some empathy to her said sir topham hatt. i must've remind u of the quarry incident that happened almost 2 years ago.

You also told me sir topham hatt was wannabe for the family to keep the railway going and that the legacy is silly. added ben who was just puffing in.

That made Bill look at his buffers. Sorry sir was the only thing he said.

I am ashamed and flabbergasted on your behavior bill he said angrily . Ben and Timothy will have a special train going to the docks while you are to stay put in the sheds for a whole month to think about your actions and Ben will have to do your work with Mavis having extra load.

Ben glared at Bill because now he had to deal with his twins' work as well as his own.

One more thing sir topham hatt continued, I want you to think about what words that can actually hurt fellow engines and being an honest and reliable engine wherever you go. Yes sir, answered Bill sadly.

Sir topham hatt left leaving Bill with a lot to think about. Walt was soon transported back, very satisfied with Bill's punishment. Emily was still asleep which made Walt smile. Walt puffed over to Emily and he kissed her softly on the check trying not to wake her up. I promised to go back after this one and with that Walt had disappeared with Emily making a smile.

Walt was soon transported to the narrow gauge sheds where he saw Duncan resting peacefully when he saw a man walking towards him.

Hello sir, peaceful day isn't it , said Duncan. It was Mr Percival, the thin controller.

Actually it was a lovely day until I had a couple of complaints from fellow engines about Scottish and bigger engines.

Duncan felt ashamed he got caught and did not try to cover it up. I was just getting my own opinions and having James as a fellow friend.

Mr Percival was not pleased one bit. Firstly what you didn't know about James is that he is always boastful and does not tell the truth which led to you rock and roll in the first place and derailed you should have known better Duncan trusting engines before getting to known them first.

Duncan looked ashamed.

Also i also heard from peter sam that you called emily a steamed kettle on wheels being lazy mr percival said angrily.

let me remind you duncan that emily is gone through a hard time about missing her sister and does not want to hear rude remarks from engines like you imagine if you were in emily's place and someone teases you about it.

Duncan regrets every single one of his words in his smokebox.

Because of your rude remarks about Emily and complaining about big steam engines. you will stay in the sheds for a week to think about your actions plus luke will be so happy to see millie because i am sending you to Ulfstead castle to do millie's work as punishment for your behavior for 3 weeks immedately after staying in the sheds until i can trust you to behave and sympathize with fellow engines do i make myself clear he said sternly .

Crystal as ice sir said Duncan sadly.

Mr Percival turned on his heel and walked sternly away. Duncan sat in his shed feeling alone and also to think about what he was going to say to emily when they next met.

Soon Walt was back in his place in his berth feeling very satisfied. He saw Emily who was still asleep.

One day I will find my love, he thought but it may not be hard at all.

Walt looked at the stars and soon fell asleep thinking about the accomplishment he made over the last week which made him a very useful engine indeed!


I Hope you guys like this story. This one took me almost a year for me to do as we get to the new year this is a full Christmas gift from me to you. It does have swearing and horror elements which is why I put the M rated there for a reason. Huge credit to Aaroncottrel97 for bringing his stories to life and this is dedication to him and if Emily had a actual inner demon of her own. This is also the longest story that I've ever written. If Thomas had a little bit of swearing This is your lucky day. Until my next story, stay safe, happy Christmas and new years and take care.
