Enjoyable! The writing is easy to digest. The use of the names Annie and Clarabel give it a 1920s or 1930's feel.

Chapter 3: The Meeting Pt. 3.
Last time, Things almost end up in a disaster. Thomas was about to run over Clumsy and Hefty. The klutzy smurf had his leg stuck in the rail and Hefty tried very hard to free him. But he was stuck tight, he wouldn't budge. Thomas tried hard to stop, but he couldn't. But with the help of his two coaches, Annie and Clarabel, they manage to stop Thomas and themselves just in time. Then, Brainy And Handy come to the rescue. At first, they thought their friends are already gone, but they found alive and well. So they and Hefty manage to free Clumsy, and they all run off to join the others smurfs, which they are waiting in the bushes for them. But, the smurfs didn't get the chance to meet Thomas. But will they? Let's find out now!
In the bushes, the other time-traveling smurfs are waiting anxiously for them. But 45 minutes has passed, and the four remaining smurfs did not come. They all started to get very worry and the hopefulness inside their blue bodies are draining. Baby Smurf is starting to whimper in sorrow.[Baby Smurf whimpering sadly] And Smurfette is trying to calm the little blue infant down. Papa is standing right in front of the path that leads to the opening of the bushes, which is blocked with leaves and small twigs, waiting for his little smurfs to show up. But still they did come. And now the village leader is also starting to lose hope and getting fearful thoughts of never seeing his little smurfs again. The others felt the same way too.
Then suddenly, Snappy lost patience and began to shout. "THAT SMURFS IT!" He yelled. The other smurfs jumped when he made that outburst. "I can't just smurf here and watch all of you feeling all smurfed out!"
"I HATE feeling all smurfed out!" Grouchy shouted.
"BE QUIET, GROUCHY!"

Chapter 3: The Meeting Pt. 3.
Last time, Things almost end up in a disaster. Thomas was about to run over Clumsy and Hefty. The klutzy smurf had his leg stuck in the rail and Hefty tried very hard to free him. But he was stuck tight, he wouldn't budge. Thomas tried hard to stop, but he couldn't. But with the help of his two coaches, Annie and Clarabel, they manage to stop Thomas and themselves just in time. Then, Brainy And Handy come to the rescue. At first, they thought their friends are already gone, but they found alive and well. So they and Hefty manage to free Clumsy, and they all run off to join the others smurfs, which they are waiting in the bushes for them. But, the smurfs didn't get the chance to meet Thomas. But will they? Let's find out now!
In the bushes, the other time-traveling smurfs are waiting anxiously for them. But 45 minutes has passed, and the four remaining smurfs did not come. They all started to get very worry and the hopefulness inside their blue bodies are draining. Baby Smurf is starting to whimper in sorrow.[Baby Smurf whimpering sadly] And Smurfette is trying to calm the little blue infant down. Papa is standing right in front of the path that leads to the opening of the bushes, which is blocked with leaves and small twigs, waiting for his little smurfs to show up. But still they did come. And now the village leader is also starting to lose hope and getting fearful thoughts of never seeing his little smurfs again. The others felt the same way too.
Then suddenly, Snappy lost patience and began to shout. "THAT SMURFS IT!" He yelled. The other smurfs jumped when he made that outburst. "I can't just smurf here and watch all of you feeling all smurfed out!"
"I HATE feeling all smurfed out!" Grouchy shouted.
"BE QUIET, GROUCHY!" Snappy snapped. This made Grouchy furious and he simply turned away and this time without saying a word.
Then Snappy turn to his mind on something he though before. "Now I'm smurfin' out there and help the others!" He said eagerly, and began to run towards the block path.
But just as he was about to charge through, Papa grabbed his arm and pull him away from the enterance. "HEY! Let me go!" Snappy demand, but Papa wouldn't let him. He thinks it is too dangerous for the pushy smurfling to go out there.
So Snappy started to struggle and lose Papa's grip. But the smurf leader grabbed him very tight so wouldn't let go. So Snappy kept on struggling, but still Papa wouldn't him go. Papa had enough. So he turned and give Snappy the serious look on his face. Snappy looked at him and long last he stop struggling.
Then Snappy began to break tears and started to cry. He turn to Papa. "But Papa Smurf, what about the others?" He said sadly with his voice cracking.
Then Papa change his serious look into a calm and wise one, but with a sad look on his eyes. He speak kindly to Snappy, "Don't worry, Snappy. But you'll smurf here while I think of something to help the others. Can you smurf that for me?" Snappy nodded his head up and down. And Papa let go of him.
Then Papa turn to Smurfette. "Smurfette, you'll smurf here and watch over the smurflings." He said orderly.
"Yes, Papa Smurf." Smurfette replied.
Grandpa turn to Smoogle. "And you'll smurf here incase any danger smurfs around." He said to the mammal. Smoogle nodded his up and down.
Then Papa turn to his little smurfs. "And the rest of you will come with me and help the others." He said orderly again.
"Yes, Papa Smurf." Said the smurfs unisonly.
"Alright, Let's smurf!" Papa shouted, and they ran off to help the other four smurfs.
But as they got to the blocked path, they heard a rustling noise. They all jumped and backed away. Then they heard some footsteps coming straight toward them, and both noises are getting louder as it gets closer and closer. Papa and the smurfs began to tremble in fear.
"I H-HATE t-trembling f-fearful!" Grouchy said negatively as he shakes.
"SHH!" Hiss the smurfs.
After hearing that, Grouchy grumble even more. "And I HATE shushing too!" He yelled.
"SMURF UP, GROUCHY!" The smurfs hiss again.
This made Grouchy even more furious and his face went red as Papa's clothes or Hefty's tattoo, or better yet, James' coat of red paint! So he simply turn and walked away to join Smurfette and the smurflings.
"Quitter." Jokey snicker quietly, thinking that the illtempered smurf had already give up.
Just then, the sounds of rustling leaves and footsteps stops. The smurfs stopped trembling. Papa turn to his little smurfs, and he can see that they are looking straight at him. They want him to check if its safe to go through.
"Well. Go ahead, Papa Smurf." Vanity replied.
"OUI. After all, you're zhe the leader." Painter added.
"And you can use your magic sack to help us too." Put in Greedy.
Papa place his hands on his hips and speak seriously to them. "I can only use my magic sack incase of a REAL emergency! Is that undersmurf?" He said sternly.
"Yes, Papa Smurf." The smurfs moan depressingly.
"Wild, stand by me." He said to the long-lost-but-now-found-smurf. "And you know what to do." Wild chatterly agree and stand right beside Papa.
Papa turn to the leafy path and took two steps forward. He took a deep breath and began to speak. "Hello, is anyone in there?" He said bravely.
"Well, who do you expect? a purple smurf?" Said a familiar voice. Papa and the smurfs jumped and gasped. They know who that voice is.
Just then, four familiar figures began to appear from the shadows. Papa and the smurfs gasped to see that they are no other than Brainy, Clumsy, Handy, and Hefty!
"Hello, we're back." Brainy said happily
"And smurf in one piece." Hefty added.
Papa and the other smurfs had their faces lid up with joy and happiness to see that they are ok and well!
"Brainy! Clumsy! Handy! Hefty! You're all alive!" Papa shouted gleely, and he and the other smurfs gather around the four surviving smurfs, welcoming them and give them big smurfy hugs. All except Grouchy.
"I HATE hugging!" Grouchy grumbled, "But I'm glad that my friends are ok."
Papa steped forward and greeted them warm. "Oh, it's so smurfy to see you all alive and smurf!" He said happily while giving them a hug.
"Yeah, we though you were goners." Sassette added.
"Well, we though so too." Clumsy replied.
Then Smurfette walked up along with Baby Smurf. The little infant babbled happily to see his adult friends again.[Baby Smurf babbling happily]
Just then, Smurfette walked up to Hefty. "Oh, Hefty. You're very brave to rescue Clumsy and almost smurf live for it. Thank You." She said impressively, and she step forward and give Hefty a big smurfy kiss.[Kiss] Hefty couldn't help himself but blush and raise his shoulders and put his hands together behind his back.
But he snapped himself out and started to tell the truth. "Well, the truth is. I didn't manage to smurf Clumsy. His leg was really stuck in tight. So need Brainy and Handy's help to smurf him out. And so we did." He said honestly while he finished.
Papa smiled and speak kindly to Hefty. "Well, at least you did you best. But the most important thing is that you will always have some friends in need." He said wisely. Hefty smiled and felt very proud.
Then Smurfette walked up to Brainy and Handy. "Thank you for helping Hefty to smurf Clumsy out of smurfs way." She said happily, and she give them each a big smurf kiss.[Kiss Kiss] Brainy and Handy also couldn't help themselves but blush and raise their shoulders and put their hands together behind their backs.
"Ah, it was nothing really." Handy said happily.
"After all, like everyone says, that's want friends are for." Brainy added, as he sticks his index finger up.
"And that's want makes that quote the most important one of all time." Clumsy said cheerful, as he place his hand on Brainy's shoulder, and everyone agrees.
"[Yawn] Now that we're all together. Can I smurf back to sleep now?" Lazy yawned.
"Oh, Lazy." The smurfs groan. But Lazy couldn't help it, but lay down went completely to sleep. [Lazy snoring]
[Thomas shaking] Meanwhile, outside the field, Thomas was still shaking in fear and still has his eyes shut. The little blue tank engine still thinks he ran over Clumsy and Hefty. But he was still wrong. And after the smurfs left, little that they didn't know is that Annie and Clarabel had been watching them as they ran off towards the bushes. The two coaches were amazed. They had never seen things like those before. They really want to find out who they are.
So the two coaches wasted no time and begin to calm Thomas down. They call to him gently.
"Thomas, please! Stop shaking!" They cried.
"I can't help it!" Thomas puff stressfully, "I just ran over something!"
"But you DIDN'T ran over something!" The two coaches corrected.
At long last Thomas stopped shaking.[Shaking stops] "What are you talking about?!" Thomas said puzzledly, "Of course I ran over somthing!"
"No, really." Said the two coaches, "You DIDN'T ran over something!"
"What?" Thomas puff, he sounds very confuse.
"Just open your eyes you silly engine." Giggle Annie and Clarabel.
"Oh, alright." Said Thomas bravely.
So Thomas slowly open one of his eyes. But he only open it half way, but at least he gets a full clear vision. Then he looked down, but couldn't see the whole thing. Then he open his other eye, but still couldn't see the whole thing. And at last, as he fully open his eyes, he gasped. He can see that there's nothing on the rails. Annie and Clarabel are right. Thomas didn't ran over something.
Thomas was reliefed. "Thank goodness." He sigh, "But how did I manage to stop in time?" He said puzzledly.
"It was us!" Said Annie and Clarabel together.
"YOU TWO?!" Stun Thomas, "But I though I told you two not to act like the Troublesome Trucks!" He said stressfully, and trying not to be cross with them.
"But we did it in a good and helpful way." Explained Clarabel.
"Yes. It's either that or face disaster." Added Annie. And deep down in his boiler, Thomas knew that they are right.
But the coaches apologized anyway. "We're Sorry." They said sadly.
Thomas smiled. "No need to apologize." He puff cheerful, "What you two did was indeed very helpful, and I'm very grateful. And from now on, whenever I have trouble stopping, you two will be there to help. So thank you for helping me." And he give them two happy toots. "[PEEP! PEEP!]"
Annie and Clarabel are happy and felt very proud. "You're welcome." They said happily.
"Now," Said Thomas, "About what I saw. Were they animals?"
"Actually, no. They weren't animals." The two coaches said honestly.
Thomas was puzzled. "Well if they're not animals. Then can you two describe them to me?" He wondered.
"Well," The two coaches began, "They wear the exact same clothes like the people of Sodor."
"Oh?" Thomas puff amazedly.
"And they can talk!" Annie said excitedly.
"Really?!" Thomas said more amazedly.
"And lastly, they're blue!" Clarabel cried.
"BLUE?!" Surprised Thomas, "Like my, Edward's and Gordon's coat of paint?!"
"Yes!" Said Annie and Clarabel, "And that's all we sawed."
Thomas though for a moment, and began to put all those words together. "Little blue talking things that wear the same clothes like the people of Sodor? Amazing." He said to himself, "But are they from here or from somewhere else." He wondered.
So Thomas wasted no time and decide to find out for himself. He turn to his coaches. "Do you two know where those things went?" He asked to them.
"Yes. They went into those bushes over there." They answered.
"The bushes?" Thomas puff, and turned to his left. "Those bushes?" He asked again.
"Yes, those bushes." The two coaches answered again. "Call them. We want to see them too."
"Well, ok. Here goes." Said Thomas bravely.
So he turn to the bushes and began calling. "H-Hello?! Is anyone in there?" He tooted. But there's no respund.
So Thomas tried again and blow his whistle. "[PEEP! PEEP!] Hello?! I mean you harm. Please, come out." He tooted again. But still there's no respund.
Thomas is starting to feel depress and began to lose hope. "I mustn't give up." He said doubtfully, "I really want to see those little blue things. I really do."
So Thomas kept on calling and blowing his whistle as long as he could. "[PEEP! PEEP! PEEP-PEEP-PEEP!] Hello?! Please, I really want to meet you!" He puff desperately. But still the smurfs did not come out.
So Thomas finally gave up. "Well, if they're not coming out. Then we might as well go home." He said sadly.
Annie and Clarabel couldn't believe to hear that from Thomas. They felt very ashamed and hurt.
"But we can't go home!" They cried, "We really want to meet those little blue things! So keep on trying, we believe in you, Thomas." Said the two coaches encouragingly.
But Thomas wasn't sure. "Do you two really believe in me?" He said doubtfully.
"Yes. We do." Said Annie and Clarabel faithfully.
So Thomas made up his mind and took their word for it. "Alright, I'll keep on trying." Thomas puff with faith, "For all of us."
So Thomas again kept on calling and blowing his whistle as long as he could. But still the smurfs did not come out. And this time, Thomas is not giving up. But even though, He's still getting the feeling that he will never get the chance to meet the smurfs. But he wondered if he will get that chance. But I have faith in him. Don't you? ________________________________________________
(Amtraksmurf): Well, it looks like that Thomas wants to meet the smurfs too. But will he get that chance? Smurf in to find out.
Fun fact: When Brainy(which is the familiar voice) said "purple smurf", it was from the Season 1 episode: The Purple Smurf.(And you can see that ep. on TV Links.com or any other video websites)

I rate this Two Happy Toots! Grouchy Smurf (and everything he hates) was awesome. I liked the details - "his face went red as Papa's clothes or Hefty's tattoo". I can't wait for Thomas to meet the Smurfs. Good stuff.

Chapter 4: The Meeting Pt. 4.
Previously, After getting into a horrilbe accident and doing a daring rescue, Brainy, Clumsy, Handy, and Hefty are finally reunited with their fellow smurfs. Meanwhile, Thomas still thinks he ran over them. But his two coaches, Annie and Clarabel, had told him that he didn't run over them. At first, Thomas didn't believe them. But with bravery, The #1 engine finally realized that he didn't after all. Next, Thomas asked his coaches what those things are. And they told him that they are "little blue talking things that wear the same clothes like the people of Sodor". Thomas was amazed. So he and his coaches decided to meet them. The little blue tank engine began calling and blowing his whistle to get their attention. But the Smurfs did not respund and come out. At first, Thomas decided to give up. But his coaches tell him to keep on trying with faith. So Thomas did, and he kept on going as long as he could. But still there's no sign of the Smurfs. And Thomas is getting the feeling that he will never get the chance to meet them. But will he? Let's go!
Outside the field, with some encouragement from his coaches, Thomas kept on calling and blowing his whistle. He was trying to meet the Smurfs. But they did not respund or come out. But this time, Thomas is not giving up. But still he's getting the feeling that he will never get the chance to meet them. But his chance had come!
Meanwhile, in the bushes, one by one the Smurfs poke their heads out of the leaves. So they did hear Thomas' calling and whistle blowing after all. They were amazed and awestruck to see a real live steam engine. At first, they still think it's a giant railsmurfer. But they will find out soon enough.
"Wow." Said Handy suprisingly, "I don't believe my smurfy eyes. A real live giant railsmurfer."
"I don't think they call it a railsmurfer here, Handy." Grandpa said to the carpenter smurf, "I think humans call it by a different name."
Handy was puzzled. "Well if it's not a railsmurfer. Then what is it?"
Just then, Clumsy began to speak. "Maybe we should find out for oursmurfs." He said encouragingly. "After all, it doesn't look harmful and it did save me and Hefty's life." But the other smurfs think that Clumsy's suggestion is not a good idea.
Just then, they heard Thomas calling and blowing his whistle even louder. "[PEEP! PEEP! PEEP!] Hello! Oh, Please come out! I really mean you no harm! He puff desperately.
"Smurf-a-roo! He can talk!" Snappy said stunningly.
"And he'z blue! Like us!" Painter added.
"And why does it have a #1 on it?" Brainy pointed out.
"Well, how should I know?" Hefty snorted, "I don't do mathematics."
"I HATE mathematics!" Grouchy shouted.
"Grou-chy!" Brainy growled softly, so the negative smurf wouldn't hear him.
"Well, I think I should smurf Clumsy's suggestion." Sassette said sweetly, "After all, that railsmurfer-like thing said he means no harm."
Then Baby Smurf began to babble and raised his arms and wiggle them like he was trying to reach for something.[Baby Smurf babbling]
"And it looks like Baby wants to smurf Clumsy's suggestion, too." Said Smurfette honestly.
"Well, what do you smurf, Papa Smurf?" Handy said to the village leader.
"Hmm? Let me smurf about it. Ok?" He said truthfully.
So Papa began to take a moment of time. And wondered if he should take Clumsy's suggestion or not. As he began to think, he turn and looked at his little smurfs. He can see that they are looking very nervous on what he would say. All except Grouchy, who still has a dark cloud above his head. Then Papa turn to Thomas, and he can see that the #1 engine is looking very desperated on meeting them.
Then the village leader turn back to his little smurfs, and at last, he made his decision and smiled. "I think we should smurf Clumsy's suggestion." He said grandly. The Smurfs were delighted and cheer.
"Oh, thank you, Papa Smurf." Said Clumsy, "Thank you."
"Well, what are we smurfing for?!" Sassette shouted happily, "Let's smurf and meet him!"
"Ahem." Interrupted Greedy, "Aren't we smurfgetting somthing?" And pointed to the problem.
The Smurfs moan and can see what the problem is. Lazy is still fast asleep.[Lazy snoring]
"Don't worry," Hefty groan, "I go get him." So he walked up to the sleeping smurf, picked him up, and place his belly on the strong smurf's left shoulder. "No problem." He grunted.
"Well, alright!" Snappy shouted, "Let's smurf."
"Yeah!" Said the Smurfs, except Grouchy.
And so, with smiles on their faces(but Grouchy still wearing a scowl), the time-traveling Smurfs ran out of the bushes and were finally off to meet Thomas.
Meanwhile, Thomas was still calling and blowing his whistle. And he's still not giving. But his luck is now running out. He began to feel very exhausted and weak. And his whistle is getting all worn out.[Whistle blowing weakly]
"Must.. keep.. on.. trying." He panted. "I.. mustn't.. give.. up." But Annie and Clarabel could see that their engine friend is indeed looking very tired.
So they speak depressingly to him. "It's okay, Thomas." They said sadly, "You can stop now."
"Good." Sigh Thomas and at last he stopped, "I'm getting all puffed up, anyway."
But Thomas looked at his coaches. He can see that they are feeling very sad and depressed. "I'm truly am sorry." Thomas said sadly. "I did my best. But I think that they're not coming out."
"That's alright." Sigh Annie and Clarabel.
"So are you two ready to go home?" Asked Thomas.
"Yes, we are." They answered. And with a sad wheesh of steam, Thomas began to puff off to Tidmouth Sheds.
But just as Thomas began to move, he suddenly heard someone shouting to him. "No, Wait! Stop!"
"Whoa!" Cried Thomas and stop just in time.
"Bust my buffers!" Stun the #1 engine, "Who said that?"
"Down here!" Said a voice.
Thomas looked down to his left. And there on the ground, are the Smurfs! And they all have big smurfy smiles on their faces. Except Grouchy, still scowling as usual.
"Well, flatten my funnel!" Amazed Thomas quietly, "It's the little blue talking things."
Annie and Clarabel saw them too. And they are pleased with themselves. "See. We told you so." They said softly.
Thomas was so amazed, he couldn't think of a thing to say. He felt speechless. The Smurfs felt speechless too. So they and Thomas just kept on staring at each other without saying a word.
But little cheery Sassette stepped forward and began to speak to him. "Hello." She said cheerfully.
"H-Hello." Thomas said nervously, but he felt speechless again. Then, he saw something that caught his attention. There on Smurfette's arms, is Baby Smurf. He was waving at the little blue tank engine and was babbling happily.[Baby Smurf babbling happily]
Thomas smiled. "Awww." He tooted, "He's so adorable."
"Why, thank you." Smurfette said happily.
At last, Thomas and the Smurfs don't feel speechless. They are now feeling very excited.
Thomas spoke first. "Well, now." He said happily, "Who are you little blue things?"
The Smurfs all looked at each other and then turn to Thomas. "We're Smurfs!" They said happily.
"Smurfs?" Said Thomas puzzledly, "I've never heard of those kind of things before."
Papa stepped forward and began to explained. "Even though we are mythical creatures." He said, "But we Smurfs try to keep our existence from ever happening."
"But it's too late. No thanks to a certain evil "but stupid" wizard who kept spinning his life trying to eat us or smurfing us into gold." Said Brainy with a disappointed tone in his voice and everyone agreed him.
Thomas was shocked. "Oh, you poor innocent, little things!" He said stunningly, "No wonder I never heard stories about you and I felt very sorry too."
"Ah, that's okay." Jokey chuckled, "We always outsmurfed that idiot wizard, anyway." [Jokey chuckling]
"Smurfing? Outsmurfed?" Confused Thomas, he doesn't understand the way the Smurfs are speaking.
"Oops.[Papa chuckling] Sorry, we Smurfs speak in a smurf language, by replacing a word with the word "smurf". Papa explained.
"Hmm?" Ponder Thomas.
"Like, for example." Hefty began as he stepped forward, "You say "Hello, nice to meet you", but we say "Hello, nice to smurf you", get it?" But Thomas is still confused.
Then Smurfette stepped in. "Well, here's another example: When Brainy said "smurfing us into gold", he means "turning us into gold". So that's how we Smurfs speak like that." She said understandingly.
"Oh, I get it now." Thomas said at last. "And I really like the way you talk. It sounds splendid. Think you all can teach me that?"
"Why, thank you. And yes, we be happy to smurf you." Said Smurfette happily.
Thomas giggled and he understand what Smurfette had said to him.
Just then, Handy stepped in. "Um, Excuse me?" He said to Thomas.
Thomas turn to Handy. "Looks like you have a question for me, don't you?" He puffed.
"Yes, I do." Said Handy, "You look just like my invention back home."
"And what do you call your invention that looks like me?" Asked Thomas.
"I call it the railsmurfer." Handy Answered.
"The railsmurfer?" Thomas chuckled, "That's a funny way to call it." And he laughed.
"Oops, sorry." Apologized Thomas sheepishly.
"Ah, that's alright." Handy said forgivenly. "It sounds funny to me, too. Now tell us, what kind of contraption are you?" He said excitedly.
Thomas smile his biggest smile. "I'm a steam engine, a locomotive, or in other words, a train."
"Ooh." Said the Smurfs amazingly.
"So that's what they call it in this time period." Brainy said understandingly.
"Time period?" Stun Thomas. "Something tells me that you Smurfs are not from around here, are you?" The Smurfs smiles have turned upside down.
"Your right." Grandpa said as he stepped forward, "We're not from around here."
Thomas was puzzled. "Well, tell me. Where are you all from, and how did you all get here?" He said eagerly.
The Smurfs all turn to Grandpa. And the elder smurf began to talk. "Well, it's a long story." He said depressingly, "And it all started back to our home village..." And so Grandpa began to tell Thomas the whole story.
An hour has pasted and the sun is beginning to set. But at long last, after hearing the whole story, Grandpa finally ended it. "...and that's how we smurfed ourselves in this time period." He said as he finished.
Thomas was even more shocked. "Oh, my gears and axles!" He whistled, "The smurf village, time traveling, and the historic places that you all went? This is all too much!"
"We know." Snappy said sadly.
"And we're all getting sick and tired of this!" Hefty shouted.
"Well, I hope you all find your way home soon." Thomas said faithfully. "But in the meantime, all of you should get some rest."
"This steam engine is right, Papa Smurf." Said Brainy, after he agreed with Thomas. "And I am getting all smurf out."
"Oui, me too." Said Painter.
"Me, three." Vanity added.
"But wait." Grandpa said to the others, "I haven't smurf my questions yet." So he turn to Thomas. "Tell us, where are we now?"
"We're on the Island of Sodor!" Puff Thomas happily.
"The Island of Sodor?!" Stun the Smurfs.
"Where is that?" Brainy Asked.
"It's located between the Isle of Man and England." Thomas answered.
"Hmm, funny." Grandpa said as he whisk his beard-covered chin. "I traveled through England a long time ago. But I didn't heard an island called Sodor."
"That's because," Thomas explained, "The island hasn't been discovered 'til the early 1900's
"So what year is it?" Asked Greedy.
"It's 1955." Answered Thomas. The Smurfs gasped.
"Oh, wow!" Clumsy replied.
"We smurfed ourselves 450 years from where we are!" Brainy shouted.
"450 years?!" Gasped Thomas, "Your telling me that you all are from the year 1505?!"
"YES!" Said Smurfs franticly.
Thomas was dazed and surprised with his eyes spinning around. This is all too much for him. "Now, I need a rest." He moaned.
"Well, we smurfed the second and final problem." Brainy replied. "Now all we need is a place to smurf the night in." Everyone agreed with Brainy and they all began think.
Suddenly, Thomas had an idea and he blew his whistle. "[PEEP-PEEP-PEEP-PEEP-PEEP!] You all can spend the night at my home!" He puff happily.
"And what, may I smurf." Brainy asked, "Do steam engines sleep in?"
"An engine shed." Thomas answered.
"Well, I hope it's smurfy." Said Vanity as he looked at his reflection. "And I do need a good night sleep."
"Don't worry." Said Thomas truthfully, "My home will be very cozy. Just you wait and see."
"Oh, thank you." Said Papa, "How can we ever repay you."
"Nothing." Thomas chuckled, "It's the least I can do to help."
"Well, what do you say my little smurfs?" Papa said the others. The Smurfs all smiled, except Grouchy.
"We say," Hefty shouted. "Let's smurf!"
"Yeah!" Said the Smurfs cheeringly.
"Great!" Thomas tooted, "ALL ABOARD!"
"You heard the nice steam engine." Said Papa, "Let's smurf!" And they all walked towards the #1 engine.
[Background song #1 plays]
Thomas watched happily as one by one, the Smurfs began to jump aboard him. "Whoa. They sure can jump high." Thomas said to himself, "And I can't wait to show them to my friends."
