Episode 8
Thomas Percy & The Coal
It was a beautiful siku on the Island Of Sodor. Thomas The Tank Engine's smart blue paint shone in the sunshine. He arrived at a station, and saw Percy, and Sean.
"Hello Thomas." Called Percy, "You look splendid."
"Yes indeed." Boasted Thomas, "Blue is the only color for an engine."
"I've got some blue, but most of my paint is grey." alisema Sean.
"I like my green paint," Percy replied, "I wouldn't want to be any other color."
"Well, well anyway," Huffed Thomas, "Blue is the only color for a really useful engine. Everyone knows that." And he puffed away importantly. Percy, and Sean just smiled.
Later that day, Percy was shunting some freight cars under a coal chute. Thomas was kwa him resting.
"Careful," called Thomas cheekily, "Those freight cars could be troublesome."
"Go on, go on" Shouted the freight cars, and pushed Percy.
"And kwa the way," Called Thomas, "Those buffers don't look salama to me."
But it was too late. Percy ran into the buffer, and went off the tracks. The last load of coal poured from the chute, and onto Thomas.
"Help, help!" Called Thomas. His smart blue paint was getting ruined kwa the coal dust. "Get me out!"
Percy was worried, but he couldn't stop laughing when he saw Thomas' paint being ruined.
"Ha, ha!" Chuckled Percy, "You don't look really useful now Thomas. wewe look disgraceful."
"I'm not disgraceful!" Spluttered Thomas, "You did that on purpose. Get me out!"
It took so long to clean Thomas, that he wasn't in time for his inayofuata train. Rosie had to take Annie, and Clarabel for him. The two coaches were most upset.
Thomas was grumpy at the sheds that night. Sean thought it was a great joke, but Percy was mad at Thomas, for thinking he caused the accident on purpose.
"Fancy, a really useful blue engine becoming a disgrace to Sir Tophamm Hat's railway." alisema Percy.
inayofuata morning, Thomas was feeling happy. He saw Percy struggling with a heavy load of freight cars, and he was feeling tired.
"Have a drink," alisema his driver. The water tower was inayofuata to a siding, where it ended with unsafe buffers. Percy went to the siding, but the freight cars prevented him from stopping.
"Oh!" Called Percy, as he was being pushed, "Help!"
Percy let off a lot of steam when he got derailed. His wheels were buried deep in coal. It was time for Thomas to go, and he left laughing at what happened to Percy.
That night, the two engines made up their quarrel.
"I didn't cause your accident on purpose Thomas. wewe do know that, don't you?"
"Of course," Chuckled Thomas, "And I'm sorry about what I alisema yesterday. Your green paint looks splendid."
They also learned to be zaidi careful with coal.

The inayofuata morning, Rosie and Nicholas rode the Tube and got off at the nearest station to their college. After walking for ten minutes, they finally made it back to the neighbourhood they've known for four years. Nicholas alisema as they looked around, "Well, here we are once again. It's bloody amazing how this was our starting point for so many adventures during our muziki studies!" Rosie replied, "It sure was, sweet friend! Also, I'm glad that nothing seems to have changed since we graduated and left." Nicholas replied, "I'm glad about that, too, love." And so, they spent their visit kwa taking some picha while exploring the lobbies of both the buildings in which their classroom and dorm were located. They then ate breakfast at the same restaurant where Rosie had her first meal the siku after arriving in England.
