Hello, Smurffans! I had just created aonther story and again combining two of my favorite shows, all on my own in my dreams. It's called: The Smurfs, Thomas & Friends: The Sequel.
This time my story will be based right after The Smurfs Season 9 series and from Thomas & Friends right between the Season 12 series and the full-length film Hero Of The Rails. And again the Genres in my story will have: Adventure, Action, Humor, Drama, Hurt/Comfort, and Friendship. And again it's in British.
Here's my summary: Two special friends miss each other very much, but their worlds are magically connected with special magic. And there is danger among both the Smurfs and the Engines. Will they stop and put an end to it? You'll just have to find out for yourself as you read my second story.
This time my story will not start and end with some songs and there be no background songs. But there'll be some sound effects again.
And remember from my first story, about the "using your imagination" thing. As you all read my second story, you think of it as watching a movie. And the second story(movie) scene is CGI animation(Thomas & Friends) mixed in with 2D/3D animation(The Smurfs). Well, that's the imagination part, again.
Well you all know the characters and the voice actors/actresses who provide the voices of the Smurfs.
And here are two new Smurfs that I made up in the second story:
Christopher - Marco's twin brother/paprika trader and also voiced by Rob Paulsen - This smurf wears a sailor smurf hat and a charm medal
Latino - A spanish accent Smurf and voiced by a various spanish actor - This smurf wears a yellow poncho with purple zigzags
For Thomas & Friends, here the voices who provided the characters are the ones from the 2009 movie, Hero Of The Rails. But, I made some changes for the voicing's of the T&F characters:
Pierce Brosnan - Narrator Michael Angelis - Mr. Conductor Ben Small - Thomas, Toby, Billy, Bill, Ben Keith Wickham - Percy, James, Gordon, Henry, Edward, The Fat Controller Teresa Gallagher - Emily, Rosie, Flora, Annie & Clarabel, Henrietta Michael E. Rodgers - Donald, Douglas Matt Wilkinson - Murdoch Britt Allcroft - Lady, Molly Kerry Shale - Duck, Oliver Michael Brandon - Hank And minor appearences, cameos, and mentioning's of some other friends from T&F.
And there you have it!
Hope you like it as you read along.
But before you read my second story, go to my first one from where it all begin.

Author's note: Sorry I took so long, I was having problems. So here it is!
Fanfiction.net
Chapter 1: Two Years Later
It's been two years since the Smurfs left the Island of Sodor. And after the 17 Smurfs had left the island, they were still traveling through the fabric of time and indeed trying to find their way back home. During their not-so-fun journey, they've been in some places like Canada, the USA, Mexico, the Caribbean and many countrys in South America. But, after they were in Chile, Papa Smurf managed to get the time crystals in the right alignment. They time-traveled for the last time, and they finally made it to the Smurf village!
And since Grandpa, Papa, Baby Smurf, Smurfette, Sassette, Snappy, Brainy, Clumsy, Greedy, Grouchy, Handy, Hefty, Jokey, Lazy, Vanity, Painter, Wild, and Smoogle returned to village, things were the same thing there but with some changes. Two Smurfs had returned from their journeys. Christopher came back from a paprika trade bringing paprika to the village so Greedy can make his newest recipe, chestnut stew. Latino came back from South America to became a spanish Smurf and he's now the first one in the village. And the 17 Smurfs did told the other 88 Smurfs all about their time-traveling adventures, including the best one, the Island of Sodor. And they also told them about Thomas and his friends, and they're all amazed to hear that and they really wished that they would like to meet them, but Papa Smurf said that there be no more time-traveling. And there's one last change, Weakling changed his name to Willing, meaning that he's willing to do anything since he pumped up his confidence and strength. The year is now 1508 and things were normal and smurfy in the medieval times.
In the Island of Sodor, things had changed also. Thomas found the lost town of Great Waterton. New Engines like Stanley, Hank, and Flora arrived on the island. Molly and Billy were out of service but had returned. Old friends like Duck, Oliver, and Stepney had returned after their lease to the other railway in England had expired. Other old friends like Boco, Derek, and Daisy had returned as well. Even the non-rail contraptions like Terence, George, and Caroline came back. And since the old and new friends arrived and returned, Thomas told them all about the Smurfs, and they're all amazed to hear that and they really wished that they would like to meet them, but the little blue creatures had left the island and won't be able to return. And there's one last change, James had finally got his wheels painted to match his red coat, and he now looked twice as splendid than ever before. The year is now 1988 and things are normal and smooth in the Island of Sodor.
And even though, while two time periods away, Grouchy and James miss each other alot, but they both know that the Smurfs don't belong in the island and the Engines can't go to the medieval times. But the two special friends still think about each other and that smurfy time that they both had when the Smurfs first appeared in the Island of Sodor. But alas, the two went their different ways and they miss each other since, and even when they're sleeping.
But soon enough, this will all change and this is how it begins...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was a lovely day in the Island of Sodor. The Engines of the Fat Controller's railway were doing their usual jobs. Some were pulling coaches, and some were pulling trucks. And they keep each other busy through out the day. "/Engines whistling\"
That afternoon, Thomas, along with his two coaches, Annie and Clarabel, were at Knapford Station waiting to take on passengers. They were to go along the #1 engine's branch line.
Just then, James puffed in.
/James\: "Good afternoon, Thomas."
/Thomas\: "Good afternoon, James."
/James\: "Look at me! Don't I look twice as splendid that I now got my wheels painted to match my red coat?"
/Thomas\: "/MOAN\ Yes, James. You do look twice as splendid than ever before with your wheels painted red. You been puffing that for the past 2 years."
/James\: "But you know it's not my idea. It was Grouchy's."
/Thomas\: "Yes, I do know that. But Grouchy is not in this time period anymore. He must be at his own time period about now."
James changed his smile to a frown.
/James\: "I sure do miss him."
/Thomas\: "I miss him too, and the other Smurfs as well."
James just sighed.
/James\: "/SIGH\"
At last, all the passengers were on board Annie and Clarabel.
/Annie & Clarabel\: "Passengers all aboard!"
/Thomas\: "I got to go, James. My branch line could not wait for me any longer."
And with two toots, "/PEEP! PEEP!\" The little blue tank engine puffed away.
James began to feel a little bit sad.
/James\: "Oh, Grouchy. I sure do miss you so much."
So the #5 engine decided to keep Grouchy off of his mind and go on doing what he likes to do, which is bragging and boasting to the other Engines.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
First, James met up with Duck.
/James\: "Look at my wheels! They're not black like yours!"
Duck was annoyed.
/Duck\: "James, you been saying that ever since me and Oliver came back from the mainland."
/James\: "I'm just saying, that black is such a boring color!"
/Duck\: "No, it's not!"
/James\: "Well, you and Oliver are Great Western Engines and he had his wheels painted to match his green coat."
/Duck\: "He got both his body and wheels painted when he was saved from scrap!"
/James\: "Well, you're green, and you don't have wheels to match with it! And that's why I decided to get my wheels painted to match my red coat!"
/Duck\: "You didn't decide it! Thomas told me that a Smurf told you to do that."
James' cheeks went red than himself.
/James\: "I'll say it for the last time: BLACK IS SUCH A BORING COLOR!"
And James went off with a huff.
/Duck\: "That James really makes my boiler burst."
And the Great Western Engine went on to do his job.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Next, James saw Bill and Ben. They were on their way to Sodor Slate Quarry.
The mid-size red tender engine went on boasting.
/James\: "Look at me, you two! My wheels aren't black anymore!"
The twins were easily attracted.
/Bill & Ben\: "They sure match your red coat."
/Ben\: "Maybe we should get red wheels."
/Bill\: "We don't want red wheels, we want yellow wheels."
/Ben\: "Oh, right, we're yellow."
/James\: "You see, it was my idea to get them painted."
/Bill\: "No it isn't."
/Ben\: "Thomas told us that a Smurf told you to do that."
James suddenly went from happy to sad.
/James\: "/SIGH\ Yes, a Smurf did told me that, and his name is Grouchy."
So the #5 engine said nothing else and he puffed sadly away.
/Bill\: "What's wrong with him?"
/Ben\: "I don't know."
And the twins went on to the quarry.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
James went on thinking about Grouchy as he chuffed along the main line. And he wouldn't stop thinking about the mix-emotional Smurf.
/James\: "Oh, Grouchy. I wish you come back. Or I wish that I could come and see you."
As the #5 engine chuffed along the main line, he passed by some of the other Engines.
James passed by Molly.
/Molly\: "Hello, James! And I like your red wheels!"
But James didn't say anything to Molly. Then he passed by Murdoch.
/Murdoch\: "Top of the afternoon, James!"
But James didn't say anything to Murdoch either. Then he passed by Hank.
/Hank\: "Howdy, James! Nice looking red wheels ya got there, buck-a-roo!"
But James didn't say anything to Hank also. He was too sad to reply back and he kept on chuffing along the line.
Just then, James saw a golden sparkle on the left side of the line.
/James\: "Oh, it's Mr. Conductor."
Mr. Conductor magically appeared right beside James.
/Mr. Conductor\: "Hello, James."
/James\: "Hello, Mr. C."
/Mr. Conductor\: "James, why the long face?"
/James\: "Oh, it's nothing."
/Mr. Conductor\: "Is it about your special Smurf friend?"
/James\: "Let me guess, Thomas told you about it."
/Mr. Conductor\: "/Giggling\ Yes, he did. Now, the Fat Controller wants to see you at Knapford Station."
/James\: "But I was just there an hour ago."
/Mr. Conductor\: "Well, you better go back there, He has an important job for you."
/James\: "Really? Alright."
Then Mr. Conductor noticed the object around James' whistle.
/Mr. Conductor\: "What's that golden thing up there?"
/James\: "Oh, it's a charm. My Smurf friend give it to me to remember him."
/Mr. Conductor\: "Oh, that's nice. And did you give him something to remember you?"
/James\: "Yes, I give him my charm."
/Mr. Conductor\: "Well, that's a very nice thing that you both did."
James smiled a little smile.
/Mr. Conductor\: "Well, I better get back to Shining Time. Now off you go, James."
/James\: "Bye, Mr. C."
And with a blow from his whistle, "/TWEET!\" Mr. Conductor magically disappeared.
And James chuffed off to Knapford Station.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When the mid-size red tender engine arrived at the station, the Fat Controller was waiting for him,
/The Fat Controller\: "Ah, James, just the engine I want to see."
/James\: "Yes, Sir. Mr. Conductor told me that you have an important job for me."
/The Fat Controller\: "Yes, I do. I want you to pull a fast special from Brendam Docks to Vicarstown."
James loves doing that job, and it's indeed the most important job of all, better than his old job that he used to do, which is pulling slow goods.
/James\: "/SIGH\ Yes, Sir. I'll get right to it."
/The Fat Controller\: "What's the matter?"
/James\: "Oh, I miss my special friend."
/The Fat Controller\: "You mean that Smurf with the grumpy face?"
/James\: "Yes. Sir."
/The Fat Controller\: "Well, James. We both know that they don't belong here, and it is for the best."
/James\: "Yes, I know that, Sir,"
/The Fat Controller\: "Now please, try not to think about your little Smurf friend, and try on thinking about on being a really useful Engine."
/James\: "I'll try, Sir."
/The Fat Controller\: "And remember, fast specials cannot be late. And YOU better not be late. Do I make myself clear?"
/James\: "Yes, Sir, perfectly clear."
/The Fat Controller\: "Good. Now off you go."
And the Fat Controller went back into his office.
James was still feeling sad. But the Fat Controller had said his word. He now needs to think about on being really useful and being on time.
/James\: "Come on, James. Pull yourself together. The Fat Controller wants me to be really useful and being on time. Well, here goes."
And with a wheesh of steam, James puffed off to Brendam Docks.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When the #5 engine got to the docks, he was coupled up to the special. James was now really determined to get his train to Vicarstown.
And with two toots from his whistle, "/PEEP! PEEP!\" James set off on his journey.
Along the main line, he was enjoying himself enormously.
/James\: "Well, at least it's out of my mind. And I'm sure that I can get this special to Vicarstown in no time."
And James pumped his pistons and he thundered down the line.
Up ahead, he could see Gordon's Hill. But with such speed, he charged himself right up the hill. And he made it up to the top.
/James\: "Puh, easy as a piece of coal."
Then James started going down the hill. He put on his brakes. "/Brakes screeching\" And he safely got down to the bottom.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Next, James could see a difficult bend up ahead. The mid-size red tender engine slow himself down. But then, he stopped.
James remembered the spot. It was where he had his third major accident two years ago. And it was also the spot where he and Grouchy made their newly formed friendship. James was thinking about the former bad-tempered Smurf again. And he forgot all about taking his special to Vicarstown for five minutes. James felt sadder then ever, and he closed his eyes.
But just then, Emily was puffing along the line. And she saw James with his eyes closed.
The mid-size emerald tender engine blow her whistle.
/Emily\: "/PEEP! PEEP!\ James, wake up!"
/James\: "Oh! Oh, Emily. I didn't see you."
/Emily\: "Were you sleeping?"
/James\: "No, I was thinking."
/Emily\: "About what?"
/James\: "About Grouchy."
Emily knows how James feel.
/Emily\: "James, I know you miss Grouchy, but you know better than that."
/James\: "I know. But I can't help it."
/Emily\: "Yes, you can. You can think of what your doing and stick to it."
/James\: "If you say so."
/Emily\: "Now, you better get puffing on what your doing. You don't want to disappoint the Fat Controller. Later."
And Emily puffed away.
And James set off once more.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Right now, James was at the southern part of the island, which is the Sodor Island Seaside. He once again stopped.
The seaside is where James, Grouchy and Baby Smurf had their special quality time together. He remembered the things that he and the not-so-grouchy Smurf talked about, and the time that Grouchy told him that he should get his wheels painted to match his red coat, of which he did. James grew more sadder than ever, and again he closed his eyes.
But just then, Edward was puffing along the line. And he saw James with his eyes closed.
The #2 engine was concerned.
/Edward\: "James? James!"
/James\: "Uh? Oh, Edward. I did it again, did I?"
/Edward\: "Yes, you did. Are you thinking about Grouchy?"
/James\: "Yes I am. And I can't stop thinking about him. I miss him so much."
Edward knows how James feel and he's a kind and wise Engine.
/Edward\: "James, I know you miss Grouchy, but we all know that it's for the best. He and the other Smurfs don't belong here, they belong at the 16th century."
/James\: "Yes, I know that. But I wish that I could see him again."
/Edward\: "I know, I wish that I could see him and the other Smurfs too. But we both know that it's not going to happen."
James let out a big sigh.
/James\: "/BIG SIGH\"
/Edward\: "Now, you better get puffing on what your doing, it's getting late soon."
/James\: "Alright, Edward. I'll see you later at Tidmouth Sheds."
And James puffed sadly away.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As the mid-size red tender engine chuffed along the line, the evening began to arrive. He was still thinking about Grouchy, that he was puffing very slowly. James had forgot all about getting his special to Vicarstown and getting there on time. He grew even more sadder as he kept on thinking about Grouchy. And the more he thinks, the more he chuffed slowly and slowly.
Just then, Henry came along. He was on his way back to Tidmouth when he saw James chuffing very slowly. The #3 engine remembered something and he called to James
/Henry\: "James! What are you doing? Don't you realize that you're late?"
/James\: "Bust my buffers! Sorry, Henry! Guess I was thinking about Grouchy a lot again!"
/Henry\: "Well, quit thinking and get chuffing! It's getting late!"
And as quick as lightning, James sped away.
But even though, when he arrived at Vicarstown, James was indeed very late. He felt terrible.
/James\: "Oh dear, I can't believe I let this happen. I wasn't being a really useful engine, and the Fat Controller is going to be cross with me."
And James let out a sad wheesh of steam. "/A wheesh of steam\"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nighttime came, and when James came back to Tidmouth Sheds, the Fat Controller was there waiting for him, and he was indeed very cross.
/The Fat Controller\: "James, I'm very disappointed at you. You had caused confusion and delay."
/James\: "I'm sorry, Sir. But I can't stop thinking about my special Smurf friend. I really miss him."
/The Fat Controller\: "/MOAN\ James, I told you not to do that, but you did. When will you ever understand?"
James said nothing else and he rolled his eyes downward.
/The Fat Controller\: "/SIGH\ Tomorrow, I expect you to do your jobs seriously, and I don't want to hear about you being late again. Is that understood?"
/James\: "Yes, Sir."
And with that, the Fat Controller turned, got into his car, and he drove away.
James still felt sad once again.
The other Engines were worried about him.
/Emily\: "Poor James."
/Percy\: "He really misses Grouchy."
/Gordon\: "But he wil never get over it."
/Henry\: "I guess it's hard to let someone you miss let go."
/Thomas\: "Edward, will he be alright?"
/Edward\: "I don't know, Thomas. I don't know. And I guess it's up to James for that."
And the Engines(except James) let out their sighs "/Engines sighing\"
James rolled his eyes upward. He was looking at the moon. Then suddenly, a familiar picture began to appear. It was Grouchy. James grew much sadder than ever before. And again, he started thinking about the former negative Smurf. Then suddenly, Grouchy's picture began to fade away from the moon. James was surprised. But then he went sadder again. And all he could do was simply close his eyes, and went sadly to sleep. And through out the night, he kept on thinking and dreaming about Grouchy, and wishing that he would see him again, as the stars in his time period twinkled up in the nighttime sky.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile, back at 480 years in the past...
It was a smurfy day in the medieval times. At the Smurf village, the Smurfs were busy doing their usual things. And they also keep each other busy through out the day. "/Smurfs singing\"
And during the past two years, Brainy along with Painter, Editor, Reporter, and Poet finally published a book about the Island of Sodor.
Everyone was happy. All except Grouchy.
That morning, Grouchy was sitting in front of his house thinking. He was thinking all about James, and he was wishing that he want to see the mid-size red tender engine once more. And the more he thinks about James, the more he gets sadder and sadder.
The other Smurfs were worried about Grouchy.
/Smurfette\: "Poor Grouchy. He's not his smurfy self."
/Handy\: "He really misses James very much."
/Vanity\: "I tried everthing to cheer him up, but nothings working. And he won't take this mirror that I want to smurf him."
/Painter\: "I even painted a zelf picture of Monsieur James but zhat made it worze."
/Greedy\: "And he's been looking at his charm that James smurf to him."
/Hefty\: "I guess the only thing that Grouchy wants is to be with James."
/Brainy\: "But you know that there's no way to do that. And Papa Smurf says that there be no more time-traveling."
/Clumsy\: "Gosh, guess there's nothing to cheer Grouchy up."
And the Smurfs let out their sighs. "/Smurfs sighing\"
Just then, Tuffy and Willing came along.
/Tuffy\: "Uhh, what Grouchy needs to smurf is my new tattoo."
/Willing\: "And mine. Thanks for the paints, Painter."
/Painter\: "You're welcome."
/Hefty\: "And I don't think that Grouchy would want to smurf your tattoos but good luck with that."
/Tuffy\: "You'll see, he would be interested."
And the two Smurfs went up to Grouchy.
Grouchy could see them coming and he put on his usual scowl.
/Willing\: "Grouchy, smurf out my new tattoo, it's a heart with wings, it represents willingness."
/Grouchy\: "I HATE your tattoo!"
/Tuffy\: "Hey Grouchy, smurf out my new tattoo, it's an anchor with a dumbbell, it represents toughness, do you like it?"
/Grouchy\: "I HATE your tattoo as well!"
Tuffy and Willing did their best.
/Willing\: "Well Tuffy, we smurf our best. Let's smurf."
/Tuffy\: "Uhh, he's been smurfing about that James for too long."
Grouchy ignored Tuffy's negative attitude and he went on thinking about James once more.
/Grouchy\: "/SIGH\"
Papa was in his house reading a book to Baby Smurf when he heard the door knocking. "/Sound of three knocks\"
/Papa\: "Come in!"
/Smurfette\: "Papa Smurf?"
/Papa\: "Yes, Smurfette?"
/Smurfette\: "I'm worried about Grouchy."
/Papa\: "I know, I am too. And indeed it's been two years."
/Smurfette\: "Can you try smurfing to him?"
/Papa\: "Well Smurfette, I did that so many times and yet Grouchy still wouldn't let it smurf. And I'm afraid that it's all up to him for making choices on whether he should stop smurfing about James or not."
/Smurfette\: "Oh, smurfs. I guess he'll still be smurfing about James for a long time."
/Papa\: "/SIGH\ I think you're quite right, Smurfette. I think you're quite right."
And Papa looked out of his window.
Just then, someone was at the door. "/Sound of three knocks\"
/Papa\: "Come in!"
It was Grouchy.
/Papa\: "Why, Grouchy. What is it?"
/Grouchy\: "Papa Smurf, Can I smurf to you alone?"
/Papa\: "Why yes, you can. Smurfette, if you please."
/Smurfette\: "Yes, Papa Smurf."
And Smurfette exit out of Papa's house.
/Papa\: "Now Grouchy, what is it?"
/Grouchy\: "Papa Smurf, I just can't stop smurfing about James, I really miss him. And I can't smurf it, and I don't want to smurf on."
/Papa\: "I know, Grouchy. I know."
/Grouchy\: "And I wish that there's a way to smurf him again."
/Papa\: "Now, Grouchy. You know that it's not going to happen. And I said it very clearly, that there be no more time-traveling."
/Grouchy\: "Then I might as well be sad and smurf about James forever!"
/Papa\: "Grouchy, is that what you really want?"
/Grouchy\: "/SIGH\ No."
/Papa\: "Well, Grouchy. Your fellow Smurfs did everything they can to cheer you up, can you smurf that for me?"
/Grouchy\: "I don't know."
Papa was indeed trying everything to cheer Grouchy up, but there was still no other way.
Just then, Baby Smurf crawled up to Grouchy. The infant Smurfling smiled his cheerful smile.
/Baby Smurf\: "/Cooing\"
That made Grouchy feel a little bit better. He reached down and picked up Baby Smurf.
Then Baby Smurf grabbed Grouchy's charm and began playing with it.
/Baby Smurf\: "/Cooing continues\"
Grouchy couldn't help but grin a little.
Papa was glad to see Grouchy happy again.
/Papa\: "Well, I guess Baby Smurf was the cure to cheer you up after all."
/Grouchy\: "Yes... I guess."
/Papa\: "You can have him for the rest of the day if you want."
/Grouchy\: "Well... alright. Come on, Baby. Thank you, Papa Smurf."
/Papa\: "Anytime, Grouchy. Anytime."
And with that, Grouchy got up and headed towards the door.
/Papa\: "But be sure to smurf Baby back for his bedtime."
/Grouchy\: "Alright, Papa Smurf."
And Grouchy exit out with Baby Smurf.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At his house, Grouchy played with Baby Smurf through out the day. But even with the littlest Smurf with him, Grouchy was still thinking about James, and he grew much sadder than ever.
Just then, the Smurflings came along. They were all in their swimsuits.
/Sassette\: "Hi, Grouchy."
/Slouchy\: "We're going to the lake for a swim, wanna smurf?"
Grouchy looked all around to see if there's no one near by.
/Grouchy\: "I'm busy with Baby Smurf. So smurf without me."
/Nat\: "Well, some of the other Smurfs are busy."
/Snappy\: "And we need somesmurf to smurf with us."
/Sassette\: "So please, can you come with us? Please?"
Grouchy wasn't sure at first. But then, he changed his mind.
/Grouchy\: "Oh, alright. But I won't go for a swim, I'll just keep a smurf on you all."
/Sassette\: "That's smurfy enough for us."
/Nat\: "And you can bring Baby Smurf with us."
/Slouchy\: "Come on, let's get smurfin'."
As Grouchy put Baby Smurf in his stroller, he and the Smurflings set off towards the lake.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
While they got there, the Smurflings were having their fun in the lake.
Grouchy watched over them as he sat down on the grass with Baby Smurf.
But as Grouchy was watching the Smurflings, and began to think about James again. And watching the Smurflings swimming made Grouchy remembered the time that James took him and Baby Smurf to the seaside where they had their special quality time together. Grouchy grew more sadder than ever.
And even Baby Smurf began to feel sad.
Grouchy noticed it.
/Grouchy\: "Oh Baby, do you miss James?"
/Baby Smurf\: "Mm-hmm."
/Grouchy\: "I still miss him too, and I wish that there's way to go back to the Island of Sodor. And I just hate when Papa Smurf said "no more time-traveling"."
/Baby Smurf\: "Ohhh."
/Grouchy\: "Well, at least we have something to be sad about."
And Grouchy let out a big sigh.
/Grouchy\: "/BIG SIGH\"
The Smurflings couldn't help but notice Grouchy and Baby Smurf feeling sad. So they all got out of the water and went up to the two Smurfs.
/Nat\: "Smurf-a-roonie Grouchy, what's wrong?"
/Grouchy\: "Oh, I don't feel like my smurfy self."
/Slouchy\: "But why?"
/Grouchy\: "I'm sad."
/Sassette\: "You're sad 'cause you miss James, don't you?"
/Grouchy\: "Yes."
/Snappy\: "We know, me and Sassette miss James and the other Engines too."
/Slouchy\: "And Papa Smurf said that there be no more time-traveling."
/Grouchy\: "I ALREADY KNOW THAT, SLOUCHY!"
/Slouchy\: "Whoa, Grouchy, no need to smurf."
/Grouchy\: "/SIGH\ I'm sorry, Slouchy."
/Snappy\: "Maybe smurfing with us isn't such a smurfy idea."
/Nat\: "You can go back to the village if you want."
/Grouchy\: "No, I'll stay, and I promised to keep a smurf on you four."
/Sassette\: "Well alright. Come on, back in the water!"
And the Smurflings went back to their swim.
And Grouchy just sat down and went on watching over the Smurflings and Baby Smurf through out the afternoon.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When evening came, Grouchy, along with Baby Smurf, and the Smurflings had returned to village after having their fun at the lake.
/Sassette\: "Exhausted echidinas, what a day."
/Nat\: "It sure is."
/Slouchy\: "I'm all smurfed out."
/Snappy\: "I'm hungry, let's get some supper."
/Sassette\: "Care to join us, Grouchy?"
/Grouchy\: "You four go on ahead, I'm gonna smurf Baby back to Papa Smurf."
/Nat\: "Ok, we'll smurf you there."
And the Smurflings went off to the dining house, while Grouchy walked off to Papa's house with Baby Smurf.
When Grouchy got to Papa's house, the leader Smurf was very pleased with the former bad-tempered Smurf as he returned Baby Smurf back home.
/Papa\: "Thanks for returning Baby Smurf, Grouchy. And as the Fat Controller would smurf to Thomas and his friends, you're a really useful Smurf."
/Grouchy\: "Thanks, Papa Smurf. Good night, Baby."
/Baby Smurf\: "/Cooing\"
/Grouchy\: "Did you have supper yet, Papa Smurf?"
/Papa\: "No, I didn't. But I will as soon as I get Baby Smurf to sleep. You smurf ahead, Grouchy."
/Grouchy\: "Alright, Papa Smurf."
And Grouchy walked off to the dining house, while Papa closed the door as he gets Baby Smurf ready for bed.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At the dining house, the Smurfs were having their supper. They indeed had a very busy day making the village the loveliest place to be in.
Grouchy was sitting next to Vanity. He and the handsome Smurf were now close friends ever since they shook hands in the Island of Sodor. And Grouchy did spend some time with Vanity during those last two years, but with the mix-emotional Smurf still missing and thinking about James, the two Smurfs can hardly spend some more time together. But Vanity knows how Grouchy feels and he also misses James too. And they both have a lot but partially in common than ever before.
Suddenly, Grouchy stopped eating his supper.
Latino couldn't help but notice.
/Latino\: "Grouchy, que pasa mi amigo?"
/Grouchy\: "I don't feel like eating anymore."
Vanity also couldn't help but notice.
/Vanity\: "Well, why?"
/Grouchy\: "I just don't. I lost my appetite."
/Smurfette\: "But Grouchy, you gotta eat your supper or you'll starve."
/Grouchy\: "So what, what's the point of eating?"
/Hefty\: "Then what's wrong?"
/Grouchy\: "I'm feeling sad, that's what's wrong."
/Tuffy\: "Uhh, let me smurf, you're smurfing about James again, aren't you?"
/Grouchy\: "Well, I can't help mysmurf! I really miss James!"
/Vanity\: "I miss him too, Grouchy. But you don't smurf me missing someone for so long."
/Tuffy\: "Heck, you don't smurf us missing someone for so long."
/Handy\: "Well, I do miss Marina for one year, but I smurfed on 'cause she and I are different. And you should smurf on too, Grouchy."
/Grouchy\: "I HATE smurfing on! James and I may be different, but he and I have a special connection!"
Tuffy was fed up and he began to make Grouchy furious.
/Tuffy\: "And what special connection is that? Is he grouchy like you?"
/Grouchy\: "Yes, he gets grouchy so easily, and he has some things to hate too!"
/Tuffy\: "Like what?"
/Grouchy\: "He hates getting his red coat dirty!"
/Tuffy\: "Yeah?"
/Vanity\: "It's true. James is like me, he's a very sensible Engine, and he loves to keep himsmurf nice, clean, and smurfy."
/Tuffy\: "Ha! So James is like Vanity, he's not a grouch like you, Grouchy!"
/Grouchy\: "Yes he is! And here's one thing that James hates the most!"
/Tuffy\: "And that is?"
/Grouchy\: "He hates smurfing slow goods trains, and that made him really grouchy!"
/Tuffy\: "Oh really? Prove it!"
/Brainy\: "Tuffy, Tuffy, Tuffy. Have you smurf the book about the Island of Sodor? It has facts about James."
/Tuffy\: "I don't care about James, I care about Gordon, he's the Engine that I would want to smurf out with."
/Hefty\: "But I already told you, Tuffy! Gordon is not like you!"
/Tuffy\: "Uhh, so what? And Gordon is a bigger Engine than James, and that's what I like about him."
/Grouchy\: "James may not be big, but he's still a very special Engine!"
/Tuffy\: "Yeah right. James is nothing but a red monster!"
/Grouchy\: "YOU SMURF THAT BACK, TUFFY!"
/Tuffy\: "/Singing\ Red monster, red monster, James is a red monster!"
Grouchy was so furious, he wanted Tuffy to stop. But the tough Smurf kept on making the former negative Smurf furious.
/Grouchy\: "YOU BETTER STOP IT, OR I'LL...!"
/Tuffy\: "Or you what? You gonna cry? Oh, look at me, I'm Grouchy, and I miss James the red monster! Wah, wah, wah!"
/Grouchy\: "STOP IT, RIGHT NOW!"
/Tuffy\: "Why don't you smurf me?"
Just as Grouchy was about to do something to Tuffy, Hefty and Willing quickly went up to the not-so-grouchy Smurf and stopped him by grabbing both his arms.
/Grouchy\: "LET ME SMURF HIM, LET ME SMURF HIM!"
/Hefty\: "No, Grouchy! Violence won't solve the problem!"
/Willing\: "Yes, listen to Hefty!"
/Smurfette\: "Tuffy Smurf! That was a very unsmurfy thing that you did!"
/Latino\: "Si, what you're smurfing is muy malo!"
/Tuffy\: "Uhh, so what? I'm just smurfed up with Grouchy missing his special Engine friend."
/Marco\: "But teasing and smurfing him mad isn't the answer."
/Christopher\: "Yes, you should smurf this over calmly and being understandable."
/Tuffy\: "Nah, I'm too tough for that."
/Grouchy\: "BUT DO YOU HAVE TO BE TOUGH ON ME?"
/Tuffy\: "Uhh, yes!"
/Grouchy\: "WHY YOU GOOD-FOR-NOTHING SMURF!"
/Willing\: "Grouchy, don't!"
/Hefty\: "Tuffy, smurf back to your house, now!"
/Smurfette\: "Yes! Latino and I will go with you and make sure that you won't do anything else!"
Tuffy could see that everyone was angry at him. And he could also see that Grouchy was still furious at him. He felt outnumbered.
/Tuffy\: "Uhh, I'm done with you, Grouchy. And you can smurf on missing James, but there's one thing that you'll always remembered, you will never smurf James again."
And Tuffy walked off from the dining house towards his house with Smurfette and Latino walking with him.
With Tuffy gone, Grouchy had calmed himself down. And Hefty and Willing let go both of his arms.
But Grouchy was still feeling upset.
Just then, Papa came inside.
/Papa\: "What in the smurf is smurfing on here?"
/Hefty\: "Tuffy was being unsmurfy to Grouchy for missing James too much."
/Papa\: "Oh smurf, I knew that this would happen. I'm sorry, Grouchy. I'll have a smurf with Tuffy right away. But right now, why don't you go home and get some sleep?"
/Grouchy\: "/SIGH\ Alright, Papa Smurf."
Grouchy sadly exit the dining house, and he walked off towards his house.
Papa and the Smurfs were sad about Grouchy.
/Sassette\: "Sorrowful salamanders, Papa Smurf. Will Grouchy be alright?"
/Papa\: "/SIGH\ I don't know, Sassette. I don't know. And I guess leaving up to Grouchy for making choices on whether he should stop smurfing about James or not was a bad idea."
/Grandpa\: "So, what are you gonna do about it, Papa?"
Papa pondered for a moment. But then he stopped.
/Papa\: "I guess I'll think about this tomorrow."
/Nanny\: "Well, you better smurf of something fast, or the whipper-smurfer will have the sad plague for much longer."
Papa knew that Nanny was right and he doesn't want that at all. But right now, all he could do is go inside the dining house as he get himself some supper.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nighttime came, and when supper was finished, all the Smurfs had returned to their houses. They each brush their teeth, put on their pajamas, and they all got in for bed.
/Lazy\: "Good night, Dreamy."
/Dreamy\: "Good night, Lazy. Good night, Jokey."
/Jokey\: "Good night, Dreamy. Good night, Harmony."
/Harmony\: "Good night, Jokey. Good night, Latino."
/Latino\: "Buenas noches, Harmony. Buenas noches, Painter."
/Painter\: "Bonne nuit, Latino. Bonne nuit, Smurfette."
/Smurfette\: "Good night, Painter. Good night, Papa Smurf."
/Papa\: "Good night my little Smurfs."
/All Smurfs minus Grouchy\: "Good night, Papa Smurf."
But Grouchy was the only one who didn't reply back.
At his house, Grouchy couldn't get himself to sleep. He was still thinking about James. Then he turned to his window. He was looking at the moon. Then suddenly, a familiar picture began to appear. It was James. Grouchy grew much sadder than ever before. And again, he started thinking about the #5 engine. Then suddenly, James' picture began to fade away from the moon. Grouchy was surprised. But then he went sadder again. And at long last, all he could do was simply close his eyes, and went sadly to sleep. And through out the night, he kept on thinking and dreaming about James, and wishing that he would see him again, as the stars in his time period twinkled up in the nighttime sky.

Chapter 2: Finding A Way
Well, there's nothing much to say from the previous chapter. As I said before, Grouchy and James still miss each other very much. But at the Smurf village in the medieval times, things were getting very difficult for Grouchy. And now, Papa needs to find a way to fix this. What will he do you all asked? Well, let's puff and smurf to find out!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At the Island of Sodor in 1988...
Next day, the Engines at Tidmouth Sheds were waiting for the Fat Controller to get their job assignments.
James was still feeling sad. He did sleep well, but during that night, he was dreaming and thinking all about Grouchy. And when the #5 engine woke up, he was still thinking all about the once-grumpy Smurf, and how much that he really misses him.
And it looks like that James was not thinking about getting an important job, and he was not thinking on being a really useful Engine.
The other Engines were worried about James.
/Emily\: "Oh, dear."
/Henry\: "He's still not happy."
/Percy\: "And he never will be."
/Gordon\: "Well, he should puff himself together about today."
/Edward\: "I guess I was wrong when I said that it's up to James for making choices about Grouchy."
/Thomas\: "And with that sad mood still, he won't be able to do his work."
And the Engines agreed with Thomas.
James overheard Thomas and he agreed with him too. He didn't feel like doing a job at all.
"/Sound of a car approaching\" But just then, the Fat Controller arrived. "/Car stops\" And he was looking very stern.
The Engines could see that, but James wasn't paying attention.
/The Fat Controller\: "Today is another busy day, and I expect you all to do a very well done job."
/Engines(except James)\: "Yes, we will, Sir."
/The Fat Controller\: "And James, remember what I said yesterday."
But James didn't listen. He was still feeling sad.
The Fat controller was cross.
/The Fat Controller\: "JAMES!"
/James\: "YIKES!"
/The Fat Controller\: "James, I'll repeat this once more; remember what I said yesterday, and I don't want you to be late again!"
/James\: "Y-y-y-yes, Sir."
The Fat Controller looked one last time at James with a serious look on his face. Then he got into his little blue car, and he drove away. "/Sound of a car leaving\"
James felt scared.
The other Engines were even more worried about James.
/Thomas\: "James, the Fat Controller really mean it."
/Emily\: "He wants you to do your job very seriously."
/Edward\: "And I think that it's time for you to move on."
But James didn't want to move on. He wants to keep his memorys about Grouchy forever.
/James\: "I don't want to move on! I'm still want to think about Grouchy as long as I like!"
/Percy\: "But not during your work."
/James\: "Yes, even during my work! So I want you all to stop worrying about me and leave me be!"
And with a huff, James puffed away.
/Gordon\: "He's going to make the Fat Controller cross again."
/Henry\: "Indeed he will."
Thomas, Edward, and Emily sighed. "/Engines sighing\"
/Edward\: "Oh, James."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That morning, James was still feeling sad, and all he could think of is missing Grouchy. But today, he'll be doing his mixed-traffic work, meaning he has more jobs to do through out the day.
James has three jobs. The first one he's doing is taking tar tanker trucks from Tidmouth to Abbey. But as he got started, the same thing is happening again. James was day-dreaming and thinking all about Grouchy. And he was going slower than ever. And another thing happened, James arrived late to his destination.
When the Fat Controller heard this, he was very disappointed.
/The Fat Controller\: "Oh, James!"
Next, James' second mixed-traffic job is pulling a special train from Maron to Great Waterton. And again, he was doing the same thing and went very slow than ever. And again, James arrived late to his destination.
And when the Fat Controller heard this, he was even more disappointed.
/The Fat Controller\: "JAMES!"
And lastly, James' third and final job is doing a passenger run from Sodor Airport to Knapford. And for the third time, James was day-dreaming and thinking all about Grouchy. And he went slower as a snail. And for the other third time, James arrived late to his destination. The passengers complained about the service.
And when the Fat Controller heard this, he was very cross!
/The Fat Controller\: "NOT AGAIN!"
James was in trouble, big time.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That afternoon, James was sent to Knapford Station to see the Fat Controller.
And right now, things are not looking well.
The Fat Controller wasn't happy at all. He shook his head from left to right in a disappointed mode.
James felt terrible. But deep down inside his boiler, he was still sad.
At last, the Fat Controller began to speak.
/The Fat Controller\: "James, I just don't know what to say."
James didn't say anything. He was still feeling sad.
/The Fat Controller\: "/SIGH\ I told you yesterday that I want you to do your jobs seriously, but you didn't. I also told you that I don't want you to think about your special Smurf friend, but you did. And now look what has happened. You had caused confusion and delay not one, not two, but three times. Very disappointing."
James rolled his eyes downward in sadness.
/The Fat Controller\: "James, what am I ever going to do with you? You're not being a really useful Engine. Maybe I should sent you away for good."
James was shocked.
/James\: "NO, DON'T! ANYTHING BUT THAT!"
/The Fat Controller\: "I think I have no other choice."
/James\: "NO, PLEASE, SIR! I WANT TO STAY HERE, WITH MY FRIENDS, IN THE ISLAND OF SODOR! THIS IS MY HOME!"
The Fat Controller could tell that James would be very scare if he leaves the island.
/James\: "I know I wasn't being a really useful Engine, and I'm sorry for being late three times. And I still can't help it, Sir. I can't stop thinking about my special Smurf friend. I really miss him, a lot."
/The Fat Controller\: "James, you already told me that yesterday, and you know the answer to that also."
James did indeed know the answer.
/James\: "So please, Sir. I don't want to be sent away. And I am a really useful Engine, but it's just that I'm too sad to work. Maybe I should take a month off, so I can let my sad feelings go and let me think about my Smurf friend for a little bit longer. That is, if it's ok with you?"
After hearing that, the Fat controller began to ponder. He wasn't sure that James should take a month off. But he could see that the mid-size red tender engine was indeed looking very sad and wasn't in a good condition to work. And he could also see that James wouldn't stop thinking about his Smurf friend and wanted to let his sad feelings go.
But at long last, after having a long ponder, the Fat Controller made his decision and spoke to James seriously but kindly.
/The Fat Controller\: "Alright, James. I won't sent you away. And I'll give you some time off, but not for a month."
/James\: "Then for how long, Sir?"
/The Fat Controller\: "Two weeks."
/James\: "Alright, fair enough."
/The Fat Controller\: "I'll have Mr. Conductor to check on you during those days. And when your two weeks are up, you better put yourself together. And I'll have Neville to do all your work as well. Do I make myself perfectly clear?"
/James\: "Yes, Sir."
/The Fat Controller\: "Alright, that is all."
The Fat Controller turned away and went back towards his office.
And James puffed sadly away to Tidmouth Sheds.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At the sheds, James was indeed all alone. But he was glad to be alone, because no one was there to tell him that he should . And just like before, James didn't want to move on, and he wants to keep his memorys about Grouchy forever. And James wished one thing he wants, and that is seeing Grouchy again. But he knows that will never happen, and he grew more sadder than ever.
/James\: "Oh dear, I think I'll never be the same Engine again. Oh Grouchy, I miss you severely. And I wish that we could see each other again. But alas, it's not going to happen. There's no way to it. And I have only two weeks to let my sad feelings go. Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear."
So all James could do was simply go on thinking and day-dreaming about Grouchy through out the day, as the sun still shines in the clear blue sky.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Back at the medieval times in 1508...
Next day, the Smurfs were doing their usual duties.
Grouchy decided to stay in his house. He was still feeling sad. He did sleep well, but during that night, he was dreaming and thinking all about James. And when the mix-emotional Smurf woke up, he was still thinking all about the mid-size red tender engine, and how much that he really misses him.
The other Smurfs were worried about Grouchy.
/Smurfette\: "Poor Grouchy. He doesn't want to smurf outside today."
Indeed, Grouchy didn't want to come out of his house.
/Hefty\: "And there's nothing we can smurf to cheer him up."
/Vanity\: "And not even Baby Smurf."
/Baby Smurf\: "/Cooing sadly\"
/Brainy\: "Well, Papa Smurf is in his house smurfing of a way to smurf this."
/Handy\: "And he better smurf of something fast, or Grouchy will lose his grouchiness and be sad forever."
And the other Smurfs agreed with Handy. Even Grouchy, who overheard him.
Just then, Nanny stepped in.
/Nanny\: "Come on you whipper-smurfers, let's smurf Grouchy to his business."
The Smurfs did as Nanny told them and they walked away from Grouchy's house.
At his house, Papa was indeed thinking of a way to fix this situation. Grandpa was inside helping him.
/Papa\: "/SIGH\"
/Grandpa\: "Well Papa, smurf of something yet?"
/Papa\: "Oh, Grandpa. There's nothing smurfing in my mind. And I already smurf to Grouchy and the others that there be no more time-traveling."
/Grandpa\: "Well, are you gonna smurf that rule a little bit?"
/Papa\: "I don't know. Should we go time-traveling again, or should I put myself and my Smurfs at risk again. Oh, the unsmurfy."
/Grandpa\: "Well, ever since we returned home, you smurf the time crystals to Father Time."
/Papa\: "Yes, I know."
Then Papa had a thought. And he made up his mind.
/Papa\: "I think I should go smurf Father Time, and I hope he'll find a way."
/Grandpa\: "Alright then, it's settled."
Papa exit out of his house. And Grandpa watched as the leader Smurf walked away.
The other Smurfs could see Papa leaving the village.
/Hefty\: "Papa Smurf, where you smurfing?"
/Papa\: "I'm smurfing to smurf Father Time."
/Handy\: "How long will you be gone?"
/Papa\: "I won't be gone for long. I'll be back as soon as I smurf."
/Smurfette\: "Oh, Papa Smurf, I hope you'll find a way to make Grouchy feel better. I just don't want to smurf him be sad forever. And all of this is making me want to cry. /Crying\ Oh, boo hoo, boo hoo."
/Papa\: "Don't cry, Smurfette. I'm sure that me and Father Time will smurf a way."
/Brainy\: "And that's what I was about to smurf, Papa Smurf. You always smurf a way of fixing things. And remember, Father Time is indeed the controller of time, he'll have something that Papa Smurf would ask for. And further more, if we ever go time-traveling again, we should be cautious and take further..."
One of the Smurfs tossed Brainy out of the village. "/BONK!\"
/Brainy\: "...I was just being helpful."
Papa then exit out of the village and he was on his way to Father Time's cave.
/Snappy\: "Where's Papa Smurf smurfing?"
/Painter\: "He'z smurfing to smurf Father Time."
/Nat\: "For what?"
/Tracker\: "For smurfing a way to smurf Grouchy not sad anymore."
/Slouchy\: "Well, I hope a miracle will happen."
/Sassette\: "Then everything will go back to normal."
And all the other Smurfs agreed.
Grouchy overheard their conversation and he too hoped that a miracle will happen.
/Grouchy\: "/Whispering\ Oh Papa Smurf, I hope you find a way soon."
And Grouchy went on feeling sad at his house.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At long last. Papa arrived at Father Time's cave. It took an hour and a half to get there.
/Papa\: "Well, here goes nothing."
Papa knocked on the door.
/Papa\: "/Shouting\ Father Time, are you home? It's me, Papa Smurf!"
The door opened and Father Time came out.
/Father Time\: "Well hello, Papa Smurf. Please, come in."
Papa entered Father Time's cave. And he jumped on to the table to face the controller of time.
/Father Time\: "So, what brings you here to see me?"
/Papa\: "You see Father Time, one of my little Smurfs miss a very special friend from the 20th century, and he was so sad that he miss his special friend so much."
/Father Time\: "Who is the sad Smurf?"
/Papa\: "Grouchy."
/Father Time\: "The grumpy one? Now that's new. And who is his special friend?"
/Papa\: "His name is James, he's a contraption called a steam engine or locomotive, and he lives in the Island of Sodor. And it's been two years since we smurf there."
/Father Time\: "Steam engine? Locomotive? Never heard such a contraption. And this Island of Sodor, does it exist right now?"
/Papa\: "No, one of James' friends told me that the island hasn't been discovered till the early 1800's."
/Father Time\: "The early 1800's? But that's years ahead!"
/Papa\: "Yes, I know."
/Father Time\: "Well, Papa Smurf. Ever since you and the other Smurfs returned back here, you give me the time crystals and you made a rule that you don't want to time-travel again."
/Papa\: "I know that also. But... /SIGH\ I think I'll smurf that rule a little. So, is there a way to return to the Island of Sodor?"
Father Time pondered. Then he had a solution.
/Father Time\: "Well, there is one way that you can return to the Island of Sodor. But I have to get things well in oder. So why don't you come tomorrow and bring your Smurfs that went time-traveling with you. And I'm sure that everything will be alright and ready."
Papa was delighted.
/Papa\: "Oh thank you, Father Time. And I can't wait to smurf Grouchy the smurfy news."
So Papa said goodbye to Father Time, and he set off back to the village.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When Papa returned to the village, he gathered all the Smurfs(except Grouchy) to the village center, with the help from Harmony blowing his trumpet.
/Papa\: "My little Smurfs, Father Time has found a way for us to return to the Island of Sodor."
/Smurfs minus Grouchy\: "Yay!"
/Greedy\: "That's smurfy news!"
/Dreamy\: "Oh, I can't wait to meet Thomas!"
/Willing\: "I can't wait to meet Edward!"
/Tracker\: "And Henry!"
/Tuffy\: "And Gordon!"
/Harmony\: "And Percy!"
/Farmer\: "And Toby!"
/Vanity\: "Oh, it'll be smurfy to see James again!"
/Smurfette\: "And Emily too!"
/Jokey\: "When are we leaving, Papa Smurf?"
/Papa\: "Tomorrow. But, I only want the Smurfs that went time-traveling with me and Grandpa."
/Brainy\: "Which is me, Baby Smurf, Smurfette, Sassette, Snappy, Clumsy, Greedy, Grouchy, Handy, Hefty, Jokey, Lazy, Vanity, Painter, Wild, and Smoogle. Isn't that right, Papa Smurf?"
/Papa\: "Uh, right, Brainy. But Baby Smurf and Smoogle will be staying here."
/Hefty\: "I wonder Grouchy smurf all of this?"
/Snappy\: "We'll go smurf him."
The Smurflings walked towards to Grouchy's house.
/Nat\: "/Shouting\ Grouchy! Did you smurf what Papa Smurf was smurfing?"
/Sassette\: "/Shouting\ In case you haven't smurf, Papa Smurf said that Father Time has found a way for us to go to the Island of Sodor again!"
But there was no answer.
/Slouchy\: "/Shouting\ Grouchy? Is everything smurfy?"
Just then, the door slowly opened. And Grouchy slowly came in sight wearing a smile and his usual scowling in his eyes.
/Nat\: "Well, I guess you smurf."
/Sassette\: "Isn't this exciting?"
/Grouchy\: "SHHHH!"
Grouchy made a hand signal, telling the Smurflings to come in but quietly.
/Grouchy\: "/Whispering\ I'm very happy that Papa Smurf and Father Time had found a way. I can't wait to smurf James again, and it's been a long time since I last smurf him."
/Snappy\: "We know just how you smurf. And I can't wait to smurf Thomas again."
/Sassette\: "And Emily too."
/Slouchy\: "You and Snappy are lucky that you both get to go to Island of Sodor, Sassette."
/Nat\: "Yeah, and I was smurfing forward on meeting Henry."
/Slouchy\: "And Toby."
/Snappy\: "Don't worry, you will."
/Sassette\: "Once we get to the Island of Sodor, maybe we might smurf Thomas and his friends to our time period. That is... if we could."
/Grouchy\: "Well I'm sure that we'll find out once we smurf there."
/Snappy & Sassette\: "Yeah."
/Nat\: "Grouchy, now that you smurf the smurfy news, can you please come outside?"
Grouchy thought for a moment. And then he made his decision.
/Grouchy\: "Alright, I'll come outside."
And Grouchy and the Smurflings happily walked out of the now-not-so-bad-tempered Smurf's house.
But Grouchy put on his scowling face so the other Smurfs won't see him being too happy.
/Tuffy\: "Oh, look who finally came out of his house."
Grouchy paid no attention.
/Hefty\: "You better smurf on what your smurfing, Tuffy. Or I'll do the same thing like I did to Brainy."
/Tuffy\: "/GULP\"
/Papa\: "Well, I'm glad to smurf you out of your house, Grouchy."
/Grouchy\: "I HATE being alone in my house!"
/Sassette\: "And that also means that Grouchy can't wait to smurf James again."
/Grandpa\: "Well, we have a big day tomorrow, so for the Smurfs that Brainy said earlier, you all should go to your houses and start packing and getting things ready."
/Papa\: "And for the Smurfs that are staying here, Nanny will be in charge, and tomorrow you all should get things prepared for Thomas and his friends. We might bring them to our time period."
/Handy\: "And Willing, you get the smurfiest job of all. You're in charge of smurfing my jobs, and I want you to build a roundhouse for the Engines."
/Willing\: "Smurfy, I'd be honored to do your jobs, Handy, and you can smurf on me. But, what's a roundhouse?"
/Handy\: "Thomas told me, that a roundhouse is a building used by railways for servicing locomotives, and they're traditionally located surrounding or adjacent to turntables."
/Willing\: "Ok, but I don't know what a roundhouse looks like."
/Handy\: "Don't worry, Architect will design it."
/Architect\: "That's right. But Handy, is a roundhouse a house that is round and like our houses?"
/Handy\: "No, Thomas told me that it's like a shed and they're half-circled. And it's more than one shed."
/Willing\: "Well, how many do you want me to build?"
/Architect\: "And design?"
/Handy\: "Well, Thomas has a lot of friends, but the ones we met first and get to know are him, Edward, Henry, Gordon, James, Percy, Toby, and Emily. So I want you two to design and build eight sheds."
/Willing\: "Ok, Handy."
/Architect\: "Alright. I'll go start designing right away."
/Willing\: "And I gonna start on working out. I gonna need all the strength and willingness to do that job."
/Handy\: "And Architect, Willing, don't forget to draw and build the turntable!"
/Architect and Willing\: "Ok!"
/Handy\: "And with the 16 of us leaving, everysmurf are going to need some help."
Handy turned to Tracker.
/Handy\: "Tracker, can you please go to King Gerard's castle and smurf up Clockwork Smurf and Clockwork Smurfette?"
/Tracker\: "Of course, Handy, and that's a smurfy idea."
Tracker went towards to Feathers the stork.
Feathers was in her nest on top of a tower when Tracker arrived.
/Tracker\: "/Shouting\ Feathers, can you please smurf me to King Gerard's castle? We're smurfing to smurf up the Clockworks!"
/Feathers\: "SQUAWK!"
Feathers flew slowly down. And Tracker jumped aboard Feathers.
And then, by spreading her wings, Feather flew up to the sky, and she with Tracker aboard headed towards to King Gerard's castle.
/Lazy\: "/YAWN\ Why do I have to go? Can I just stay here?"
/Hefty\: "Oh no, Lazy. You're one of the Smurfs that met Thomas and his friends. So you're going, and I'll make sure of that."
/Lazy\: "Oh, bother and smurfs."
/Papa\: "Alright then, that's the end of this announcement. You all may go now."
So the Smurfs that are going to the Island of Sodor went to their homes to start packing, while the rest went on to their usual business through out the day.
And by an hour later, Feathers and Tracker returned and brought the Clockworks to the village.
And when nighttime came, all 105 Smurfs were fast asleep. Grouchy was having the happiest sleep of all. He was dreaming on how will James react when he sees Grouchy again, and how much time that the two special friends will spend together in both the Island of Sodor and in the medieval times. And so on, the former negative Smurf went on dreaming about James, as the moon glow brightly in the nighttime sky.
(Acela Smurf7): Now that's smurfy news for Grouchy. And will Father Time really get the Smurfs to the Island of Sodor again? You all just have to wait and see what happens next.

Chapter 3: Return To The Island Of Sodor
As we left off previously, things are really falling apart. In the Island of Sodor, James had caused confusion and delay, three times. And it's all because that the #5 engine wouldn't stop thinking about Grouchy. So he decided to take some time off, but the Fat Controller gave him only two weeks to let out his sad feelings and keep on thinking about the former bad-tempered Smurf for a little bit longer. And James was all alone at Tidmouth Sheds with nobody there to cheer him up or to disturb him. In the medieval times at the Smurf village, Grouchy was still doing the same thing, and this made him decide to stay at his house. Papa was thinking of a way to fix this situation, and he did by going to see Father Time. The leader Smurf told the controller of time everything, and after that, Father Time said that there maybe a way for the Smurfs to go to the Island of Sodor again. This made Papa very delighted, and he went back to the village to tell his little Smurfs the great news. And this also made Grouchy very happy too. Now the question that you readers are wondering is: Will Father Time really get the Smurfs to the Island of Sodor again? Let's puff and smurf out now!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At the medieval times 480 years back...
Next morning, the big day has finally arrived.
The 16 Smurfs that were going to the Island of Sodor were getting ready to go on their journey. The other 89 Smurfs were going to see them leave the village. And all the Smurfs did indeed had their breakfast so they can get the energy that their going to need to start their day.
Papa was checking to see if everything was ready.
/Papa\: "Alright, my little Smurfs. Before we smurf, I want to smurf if we have everysmurf. Grandpa?"
/Grandpa\: "Smurf out when I smurf your name. Snappy?"
/Snappy\: "Smurf-a-roo!"
/Grandpa\: "Sassette?"
/Sassette\: "Screaming Seagulls, here!"
/Grandpa\: "Smurfette?"
/Smurfette\: "Here!"
/Grandpa\: "Brainy?"
/Brainy\: "Present!"
/Grandpa\: "Clumsy?"
/Clumsy\: "Uh, here!"
/Grandpa\: "Greedy?"
/Greedy\: "/HICCUP\ Here!"
/Grandpa\: "Grouchy?"
/Grouchy\: "I HATE shouting "here"!"
/Grandpa\: "Handy?"
/Handy\: "Present!"
/Grandpa\: "Hefty?"
/Hefty\: "Smurf!"
/Grandpa\: "Jokey?"
/Jokey\: "Hee-hee-hee, here!"
/Grandpa\: "Lazy?"
/Lazy\: "/Snoring\"
/Grandpa\: "Lazy?"
Hefty nudged Lazy.
/Lazy\: "/Snort\ Huh? What? Oh, here!"
/Grandpa\: "Vanity?"
/Vanity\: "Present! And still looking smurfy."
/Grandpa\: "Painter?"
/Painter\: "Oui!"
/Grandpa\: "Wild?"
/Wild\: "Smoo-wah!"
/Papa\: "Ok, I think that's everysmurf. Off we smurf now. Good-bye!"
"/Smurfs saying good-bye to each other\"
/Clockwork Smurf & Clockwork Smurfette\: "/In robot talk\ Bye-bye!"
/Nanny\: "Take smurfy care all you whipper-smurfers!"
/Latino\: "Buena suerte to you all!"
/Dreamy\: "Smurf bye-bye, Baby."
/Baby Smurf\: "Ba-ba!"
/Smoogle\: "Smoogle-smoogle!"
/Farmer\: "And don't you worry 'bout a smurf!"
/Harmony\: "We'll have everything finish and ready when you all smurf back!"
/Hefty\: "Ok! Good-bye!"
/Smurfette\: "Good-bye!"
/Brainy\: "Bye!"
/Clumsy\: "Bye-bye!"
The 89 Smurfs watched as the 16 Smurfs walked out of the village, and went completely out of sight.
/Nanny\: "Ok, Smurfs. Time to get busy, and you all know what to do."
/The 88 Smurfs\: "Yes, Nanny."
/Clockwork Smurf & Clockwork Smurfette\: "/In robot talk\ Uh-huh."
/Willing\: "Architect, did you finish your design on that roundhouse?"
/Architect\: "Yes, yesterday it took me all day to finish it."
/Willing\: "Smurfy, let's get smufin'."
/Nat\: "Gee, Nanny. What will me and Slouchy gonna smurf?"
/Nanny\: "Well, since you two are too young to work, maybe both of you should take Puppy and go do what you Smurflings usually do."
/Nat\: "Oh, alright. Come on, Slouchy. Let's go get Puppy and go to the Great Oak Tree."
/Slouchy\: "Ok."
And the two Smurflings went off to get their pet.
Puppy was in his doghouse waiting for someone to see him. And at last, he could see the two Smurflings coming towards him.
/Puppy\: "/Barking\"
/Nat\: "Hi, Puppy. We're going to the Great Oak Tree, wanna smurf?"
/Puppy\: "/BARK! BARK!\"
/Slouchy\: "I think that's a yes to me."
/Nat\: "Alright then, let's smurf."
And the two Smurflings and the magical puppy set off towards the forest.
Nanny watched as Nat, Slouchy, and Puppy walked through the village.
/Nanny\: "Be sure to be back by lunchtime, you two."
/Nat and Slouchy\: "We will."
/Puppy\: "/BARK! BARK!\"
And so, the two Smurflings and Puppy set off to the Great Oak Tree, while the 87 Smurfs and the Clockworks in the village went on to do their duties, including building a roundhouse for Thomas and his seven friends.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile, the 16 Smurfs arrived at Father Time's cave. The controller of time has everything ready.
/Father Time\: "Ok, Papa Smurf. Everything is all set."
/Papa\: "Smurfy, and thanks for everything."
/Father Time\: "Here, I made a time scroll of that place you want to go. And instead of using all of the time crystals, I'm only giving you five times crystals."
Father Time handed the five time crystals and time scroll to Papa.
/Brainy\: "Only five? Well, at least it'll be easy."
/Father Time\: "And lastly, since you lost the ruby key in the prehistoric times, I made you a new kind of key."
Father Time showed the new key to the 16 Smurfs. It was all blue, sparkly, and shiny.
/Painter\: "Sacre blue diamond, zhat key is all blue!"
/Vanity\: "And very smurfy!"
/Father Time\: "It is indeed. This is a sapphire key."
/Smurfette\: "Ooh, a key made out of sapphire!"
/Clumsy\: "Gosh, now we can take care of that key very carefully, yup."
/Brainy\: "Not "we", Clumsy, Papa and Grandpa will take care of it."
/Clumsy\: "Oh, right."
/Father Time\: "Once the sapphire key assemble the five time crystals, instead of making a rainbow whirlwind, it'll make a rainbow vortex."
Father Time handed the sapphire key to Grandpa.
/Grandpa\: "Smurfy, a vortex is better than a whirlwind."
/Grouchy\: "I HATE whirlwinds."
/Hefty\: "Me too. They're smurfing me dizzy."
/Handy\: "I hope going through a vortex is smooth and smurfy."
/Papa\: "Well, only one way to find out. Get ready, my little Smurfs."
Papa put down the time crystals on the ground, and he opened the time scroll. Grandpa lowered down the sapphire key. And in a flash, the multi-colored vortex appeared right in front of the 16 Smurfs.
/The 16 Smurfs\: "Ooh! Aah!"
/Sassette\: "Glowing glowworms, it's so pretty!"
/Snappy\: "Yeah, better than a whirlwind."
/Father Time\: "Ok, have a good time in the Island of Sodor, and be careful."
/Papa\: "Yes, Father Time, we will. Alright, my little Smurfs! To the Island of Sodor we smurf!"
/14 Smurfs minus Papa and Grandpa\: "YEAH!"
/Grouchy\: "Here I smurf, James!"
One by one, the 16 Smurfs entered the rainbow vortex. Father Time watched as the last of the 16 Smurfs entered the vortex. And with a flash of light, the vortex disappeared.
/Father Time\: "Well, there they go. And I hope they'll never lose the magical stuff. Oh, my nerves."
And so, Father Time grabbed his scythe, exit out of his cave, and begin to do his job of keeping things in order by going through time.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Back at the Island of Sodor 480 years forward...
It was another busy day on the Island of Sodor. The Engines on the Fat Controller's railway were hard at work keeping the island a wonderful place to live, or to visit.
Every Engine in the island was happy. All except for one Engine.
James was all alone at Tidmouth Sheds. He's now starting to have his time off that he asked for from the Fat Controller. The reason why is because that he was too sad to work. And he wouldn't stop thinking about his special Smurf friend, Grouchy. And he has only two weeks to let him think about his special friend and to let his sad feelings go.
/James\: "/SIGH\ Well, this is it. My two weeks off had just got started. And Neville is doing all of my jobs. Oh dear, I'll never be the same Engine again. And I'm too sad to express my vanity to the other Engines. Oh Grouchy, I miss you so much. And I wish that there's a way for me to come and see you again. Or I wish that you would come back and see me. But alas, it's not going to happen. Oh, I just hate that. /BIG SIGH\"
James decided to play the Smurf song with his whistle.
/James\: "/PEEP, PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP!\"
"/Whistling continues\"
But just then, a golden sparkle appeared in midair. It was Mr. Conductor. He was checking to see how James was doing.
Then Mr. Conductor got all curious from that tune that James was whistling.
/Mr. Conductor\: "Hmm, What is James doing?"
And Mr. Conductor walked towards James.
/James\: "/PEEP, PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP!\"
/Mr. Conductor\: "James? James? JAMES!"
"/Whistling stops\"
/James\: "AAH! Oh! Oh, Mr Conductor, I didn't see you coming."
/Mr. Conductor\: "Sorry, didn't mean to scare you. What are you doing with your whistle?"
/James\: "Oh, I was just whistling a tune."
/Mr. Conductor\: "What tune is it?"
/James\: "It's a Smurf tune."
/Mr. Conductor\: "Ohh. And let me guess, your Smurf friend taught you that."
/James\: "/SIGH\ Yes, he did."
/Mr. Conductor\: "Well, not only that you're a really splendid Engine, but you're a musical one too."
/James\: "Thank you, Mr. C. And you're here to check on me, are you?"
/Mr. Conductor\: "Yes, the Fat Controller told me that too. So how are you feeling?"
/James\: "I'm still feeling sad. I really miss my Smurf friend."
/Mr. Conductor\: "I know you do, and that's why you're in your shed to think about him and to let your sad feelings go. And remember, you only have two weeks to do that."
/James\: "Yes, I know. So, how's Neville doing?"
/Mr. Conductor\: "He's doing great. In fact, he likes to do all the extra work."
/James\: "Well, good for him. At least he's not complaining about it."
/Mr. Conductor\: "Yes. Well, I better get back to work. I'll check on you tomorrow."
/James\: "Bye, Mr. C."
With a blow from his whistle, "/TWEET!\" Mr. Conductor magically disappeared.
And James went on letting out his sad feelings and thinking about Grouchy for the rest of the day.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Evening came, and one by one, the Engines returned home at Tidmouth Sheds.
James wasn't glad to see them back home. He thinks that one of his friends might say that he had to move on.
But Thomas and the other Engines really think that James should move on. They don't want to see the #5 engine be sad forever, they want him to be happy and live on with his life. And they also want him to focus more on his jobs and being a really useful Engine. Because if James doesn't do that, they're afraid that they might see him being sent away, and the Engines don't want that at all.
So one of the Engines started talking to James.
/Thomas\: "James, there's something that we had to tell you."
/James\: "What?"
/Emily\: "The six of us had a discussion at Knapford Station, and we think..."
/James\: "You all think what?"
/Edward\: "We think that you should really move on."
/James\: "I knew you might puff that! And I already told you that I don't want to move on!"
/Percy\: "But James, we want you to be happy again."
/James\: "The only way for me to be happy again is to see Grouchy again!"
/Gordon\: "James, we've been puffing you all the time that it's not going to happen."
/James\: "I don't care! Maybe it will happen! I bet they're going to find a way to return to the island someday!"
/Henry\: "But we think that if they did find their way back home, maybe they don't want to time-travel anymore."
/James\: "Rubbish!"
/Edward\: "Please, James. It's for their own good."
/Emily\: "And we also think that you should focus more on your jobs."
/Percy\: "And on being a really useful Engine."
/James\: "I don't want to focus on my jobs! And I don't care about me being a really useful Engine!"
/Henry\: "But do you want the Fat Controller to sent you away?"
/James\: "Well, maybe!"
/Gordon\: "And the only place you'll be sent away is to the scrap yard."
/James\: "NO!"
/Thomas\: "Then please, James. Stop thinking about Grouchy and think about everything around you."
/James\: "I DON'T WANT TO STOP THINKING ABOUT GROUCHY!"
/Edward\: "James..."
/James\: "JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!"
And with that, James sadly and crossly puffed out of his shed, and he went completely out of sight.
/Thomas\: "/PEEP!\ James! Wait!"
/Edward\: "Oh, James."
/Thomas\: "Should I follow him?"
/Edward\: "/SIGH\ No, let him go. He needs to let out his sad feelings."
/Percy\: "But what if he doesn't come back?"
/Edward\: "Then, we shouldn't trouble him no more."
/Emily\: "Poor James."
/Henry\: "He'll never be the same Engine again."
/Gordon\: "And he'll never understand the facts."
/Edward\: "I guess there's nothing we can do for James."
/Thomas\: "He'll just have to be sad forever and ever."
And the six Engines let out their sighs. "/Engines sighing\"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After puffing out of Tidmouth Sheds dramatically, James was chuffing along the main line.
The #5 engine was very sad, and also very cross. He was cross at his friends, telling him that he should really move on. But still, James didn't want to move on. He still wants to keep his memories about Grouchy forever. But, he remembered that he only has two weeks to think about the former negative Smurf. And he's worried that when his two weeks are up, he didn't know what to do next. Now the mid-size red tender engine has some choices. Should he forget about Grouchy and focus more on his work and being a really useful Engine, or should he keep on thinking about Grouchy and be sad forever? But James also remembered that if he can't do his jobs seriously and focus on being a really useful Engine, he'll have to be sent away for sure. He's in a dreadful situation.
James was worried, but still very sad. He came to a complete stop. "/Brakes screeching\"
/James\: "Oh, bother! I don't want to move on! But what am I going to do when my two weeks are up? Should I stop thinking about Grouchy or should I keep on thinking about Grouchy? But if I tell the Fat Controller that I'm still to sad to work, he'll sent me away for sure! Ohhh, maybe I should leave the Island of Sodor, to a place where I can be alone and be sad forever. I'll miss my home, I'll miss my friends, and I'll miss everything. Oh Grouchy. /Shouting\ GROUCHY, I MISS YOU SO SUCH, AND I WISH YOU CAME BACK!"
And James began to cry.
/James\: "/SNIFFLE\"
James continued on chuffing alone the main line. Along the line, he could see Gordon's Hill. The mid-size red tender engine slowly began to climb up. It took two minutes for him to get to the top. When he got to the top of the hill, he continued on chuffing. Then James could see the steep descend. He slowly began to climb down. It took him another two minutes to get to the bottom. And at last, James safely got to the bottom of the hill. He slowly chuffed on along the line. But after he chuffed for about two miles, James came to a complete stop. He once again started thinking and day-dreaming all about Grouchy. And once again, he began to cry. James closed his eyes, and he went on letting out his sad feeling.
/James\: "/SNIFFLING & SOBBING\"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile, a half mile down the line, the multi-colored vortex appeared on the ground and on the grass. One by one, the 16 Smurfs exit out of the vortex. And then the vortex disappeared. They all could see that they're wearing the same clothes like before they first appeared on the Island of Sodor. And they all figured out that they're on the island.
/Snappy\: "Smurf-a-roo! We're back on the Island of Sodor!"
/Sassette\: "Yes, but where?"
/Brainy\: "In another open field, I think."
/Handy\: "Look! We're near some tracks!"
/Hefty\: "And where there's tracks, there's..."
/Smurfette\: "Trains!"
/Painter\: "But, I don't smurf a train."
/Clumsy\: "Or an Engine."
/Grouchy\: "I HATE not smurfing a train or an Engine!"
/Papa\: "Now don't worry, my little Smurfs. I'm sure that we'll smurf a train or an Engine."
/Grandpa\: "Well, I guess the only thing to smurf is start walking."
/Jokey\: "But which way should we smurf?"
/Greedy\: "Let's smurf that way."
/Vanity\: "No, let's smurf this way."
/Lazy\: "/YAWN\ I don't care which way we should smurf."
/Papa\: "Hmm. Maybe we should let Wild decide."
/Brainy\: "But Papa Smurf, Wild doesn't have a sense of direction."
/Papa\: "Now Brainy, this is a smurfy time to let Wild use his brain. Besides, I'm sure that he will lead us to something."
/Brainy\: "Oh, alright. But I still think that Wild will lead us to something unsmurfy."
/Smurfette\: "Oh, just smurf up, Brainy."
/Brainy\: "Hmph."
/Papa\: "Well Wild, which way we should smurf?"
Wild wasn't sure, but he will do his best. The before-long-lost Smurf began to think. He looked to the east, then to the west. Then suddenly, he made his choice and began racing down towards the west.
/Wild\: "Smoo-wah!"
/Papa\: "Well Smurfs, I think Wild made his decision. Now let's smurf!"
/13 Smurfs minus Papa and Grandpa\: "Ok, Papa Smurf!"
And the 15 Smurfs began to followed Wild. They ran down the line for five minutes.
But just then, Wild suddenly stopped running. The 15 Smurfs had caught up to the before-long-lost Smurf, and they're all out of breath.
/15 Smurfs minus Wild\: "/Smurfs panting\"
/Sassette\: "Panting panthers Wild, why you stopped?"
/Snappy\: "Maybe he's tired too."
But Wild wasn't tired. He saw something that made him stop.
Wild turned to the 15 Smurfs.
/Wild\: "/Chattering\"
/Papa\: "/Panting\ Phew. What is it, Wild?"
Wild jumped up and down, and pointed to something that he saw in the distance.
The 15 Smurfs all looked down. They could see a figure down the line.
/Hefty\: "What's that?"
/Handy\: "Is it a train, or an Engine?"
/Vanity\: "I can't smurf it from here."
/Grouchy\: "Well, let's smurf closer then."
/Jokey\: "/Panting\ Wait a smurf, Grouchy. Some of us need to catch our smurfs, and this is no laughing matter."
/Grouchy\: "/MOAN\, I HATE waiting for some of you to catch your smurfs!"
So Grouchy waited for the other Smurfs to catch their breaths.
And at last, after a few seconds, they all recovered.
/Papa\: "Alright, let's keep smurfing."
/Lazy\: "But please, can we walk instead?"
/Grouchy\: "Walk? I don't want to walk! I wanna smurf what that figure is!"
/Greedy\: "Fine then, you go smurf that figure, we'll just stay here."
/Grouchy\: "Fine! I'll go alone then!"
And Grouchy started running down towards the figure.
/Papa\: "Greedy, that was very unsmurfy."
/Greedy\: "Well, I don't want to smurf and lose my smurf again."
/Jokey\: "Yeah, same here."
/Vanity\: "And I don't want to smurf some sweat on my face."
/Grandpa\: "Well, I guess walking is the way to smurf."
/Papa\: "Alright my little Smurfs, we'll just walk. Let's just let Grouchy smurf a head start."
And the 15 Smurfs all started walking down towards the figure.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Grouchy was running a few feet away from his fellow Smurfs and yards farther towards the figure.
/Grouchy\: "/Panting\"
The former bad-tempered Smurf now ran from a few feet to yards. He ran yard, after yard, after yard, and after yard. Now he could see that he's getting closer and closer towards the figure. And Grouchy could also see what the figure is.
/Grouchy\: "/Panting\ Hey, it's an Engine! Oh, I hope it's James!"
Grouchy was now a few yards farther towards the figure.
/Grouchy\: "Almost there! /Panting\"
And as Grouchy ran a few more yards and got closer, he could see what Engine it is.
/Grouchy\: "/GASP\ That Engine is red! It's James! I can't believe it! It's really him!"
And the not-so-grouchy Smurf happily continued on running towards James.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
James was still crying and letting out his sad feelings when he heard someone calling his name.
/Grouchy\: "JAMES!"
/James\: "Huh? What? Who's there?"
But James could see that no one was there.
/James\: "Oh, I must be hearing things. /SIGH & SNIFFLE\"
But then, James heard someone calling his name again.
/Grouchy\: "JAMES!"
/James\: "Who's there? Thomas? If it's you, why you followed me?"
/Grouchy\: "JAMES!"
/James\: "Wait a minute! That's not Thomas! That sounds like..."
Then James saw a small figure coming straight towards him.
/James\: "No, it can't be! But could it?"
/Grouchy\: "JAMES!"
/James\: "/GASP\ It is! It's Grouchy! GROUCHY!"
/Grouchy\: "JAMES! JAMES!"
/James\: "GROUCHY! GROUCHY!"
James watched as Grouchy ran straight towards him, and stopped right in front and beside the #5 engine.
/Grouchy\: "/Panting\"
/James\: "Grouchy! I can't believe it's you!"
/Grouchy\: "/Panting\ It is me! And I'm back! /Panting\"
/James\: "Flatten my funnel Grouchy, you're out of breath."
/Grouchy\: "I know. /Panting\ I was smurfing smurf after smurf."
/James\: "Well, how you came back? And did you came here all by yourself?"
/Grouchy\: "We found a way to get back to the island. /Panting\ And no, the other Smurfs are here too."
/James\: "Really? Papa Smurf, Grandpa Smurf, Vanity, and the others?"
/Grouchy\: "Yes! /Panting\"
/James\: "Well, where are they?"
/Grouchy\: "They're farther down there. /Panting\"
/James\: "Then hop aboard, we'll go pick them up."
/Grouchy\: "Smurfy! Thank you, James. /Panting\ Phew!"
Grouchy finally recovered from all that running, and he jumped aboard James.
And James slowly chuffed down along the line.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Farther down the line, the 15 Smurfs were still walking when they heard two toots.
/James\: "/PEEP! PEEP!\"
/Sassette\: "Whistling whippoorwills, that sounds like a whistle!"
/Snappy\: "A train must be coming!"
/Sassette\: "Or an Engine!"
/Smurfette\: "Look! That figure is moving and getting bigger!"
Everyone looked down, and they could see that the figure is getting closer and closer.
/Clumsy\: "Smurf my smurfs! It's an Engine!"
/Brainy\: "But who is it?"
/Papa\: "Let's wait here, my little Smurfs."
And as the Engine was revealed, the 15 Smurfs were surprised.
/Painter\: "Toulouse-Lautrec, I recognized zhat red paint from anywhere!"
/Vanity\: "It's James!"
/Handy\: "Boy, Grouchy must be very happy to smurf him."
/Hefty\: "And that's the truth."
The 15 Smurfs watched as James stopped right beside them.
/James\: "PAPA SMURF! GRANDPA SMURF! SMURFS!"
/The 15 Smurfs minus Grouchy\: "JAMES!"
/Papa\: "It's so smurfy to smurf you again!"
/James\: "And it's "smurfy" to see you all too!"
/Grandpa\: "What are you doing out here anyway?"
/James\: "Well, I was having a terrible time at the sheds and chuffed all the way to here. I was crying and letting out my sad feelings you know."
/Grouchy\: "And it's all because you miss me, don't you, James?"
/James\: "Yes Grouchy, I miss you, so much."
/Grouchy\: "Well, I'm here now, and that's all it matters."
James just had to smile.
/James\: "Well, what are you Smurfs just standing there? Thomas and the other Engines will be happy to see you all again! All aboard for Tidmouth Sheds!"
/The 15 Smurfs minus Grouchy\: "YAY!"
/Jokey\: "And let's surprise the Engines when we get there."
/James\: "Good idea, Jokey. Jump into my cab, Smurfs."
One by one, the 15 Smurfs jumped aboard James.
And James puffed quickly away.
After making a turn-around, James was chuffing along the main line along the countryside with the 16 Smurfs. He rattled over bridges, cluttered through tunnels, and dashed by some stations. And at long last, after chuffing along the main line for a half hour, James arrived and entered the town of Tidmouth.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Back at Tidmouth Sheds, Thomas and five of his friends were waiting for James to come back. The mid-size red tender engine had been gone for one and a half hours. They could see that the sun was about to set. And they're getting worried than ever.
/Emily\: "Oh dear, James is not puffing back."
/Percy\: "Where could he be?"
/Henry\: "He could be anywhere."
/Gordon\: "Maybe he ran away, or left the island."
/Thomas\: "Rubbish! James couldn't leave the island."
/Percy\: "Or what if he got into an accident?"
/Henry\: "Or come off the rails?"
/Emily\: "Oh, I just can't stop worrying about James."
/Thomas\: "I think one of us should go and look for him."
/Edward\: "Right. I'll go look for him."
/Gordon\: "Why you?"
/Edward\: "Because James and I are very close friends, and we understand each other."
/Thomas\: "Just like me and Percy."
/Percy\: "Yes, that's true."
/Emily\: "Oh, I hope you find him."
/Henry\: "And bring him back in one piece."
/Edward\: "Don't worry, I'll get James home in no time."
But just as Edward was about to puff out, he and the other Engines heard two familiar toots.
/James\: "/PEEP! PEEP!\"
/Thomas\: "Wait Edward! That's his whistle, he must be coming!"
/Emily\: "Oh, thank goodness he's ok."
/Percy\: "What a relief."
/Edward\: "/Whispering\ That's a good Engine, James. That's a good Engine."
The six Engines watched as James arrived, and puffed into the turntable. And the Engines could see that James was smiling. This made them puzzled.
/Thomas\: "James. is everything alright?"
/Edward\: "And why are you smiling?"
/James\: "You all wouldn't believe it, but guess what I found!"
This made the Engines even more puzzled. But they all want to know why James was happy and what he find.
/Gordon\: "Is it a lost Engine?"
/James\: "No."
/Henry\: "Is it a lost town?"
/James\: "No."
/Emily\: "A lost road contraption?"
/James\: "No."
/Percy\: "Another scarp yard?"
/James\: "Oh Percy, no!"
The Engines all thought hard. But then, they all give up.
/Thomas\: "Alright James, we give up. What did you find?"
James smiled his biggest smile. Just then, the turntable began to spin. And then the turntable stopped spinning.
The Engines could see that they're looking at the right side of James. But they're still very puzzled.
/Gordon\: "What are we looking at? All we see is nothing."
/Henry\: "James, are you playing a trick on us?"
/James\: "No, I'm not."
/Emily\: "Then tell us what you find!"
James turned to his cab.
/James\: "NOW!"
And just then, the 16 Smurfs jumped up of James' cab.
/The 15 Smurfs minus Wild\: "SURPRISE!"
/Wild\: "SMOO-WAH!"
/The six Engines minus James\: "/GASP\ BUST OUR BUFFERS!"
/Thomas\: "I don't believe it!"
/Percy\: "The Smurfs are back!"
/Edward\: "But how?"
/Gordon\: "And it's impossible!"
/Henry\: "Unbelievable!"
/Emily\: "I'm speechless!"
/James\: "Take it easy, they'll explain everything."
The turntable spun James around once more. As it stopped, the #5 engine reversed back to his shed.
The 16 Smurfs jumped out of James' cab, and they all jumped onto James' front frame.
/Thomas\: "It's so nice to see you all, Papa Smurf."
/Papa\: "And it's so smurfy to smurf all of you too, Thomas."
/Edward\: "So how you all manage to return to the Island of Sodor?"
/Grandpa\: "We found a way to get back to the island."
/Emily\: "James, did they tell you already?"
/James\: "No they didn't, and I also want to know too."
/Percy\: "Then tell us please, Smurfs."
/Brainy\: "Well, ever since we resmurf to our time period, Papa Smurf made a rule that we should never time-travel again."
/Clumsy\: "But, after smurfing Grouchy how much he misses James, Papa Smurf decided to smurf that rule a little."
/Engines minus James\: "Oh, my."
Grouchy and James turned to each other and they smiled grandly.
/Handy\: "And then, Papa Smurf went to see Father Time to find a way to return to the Island of Sodor."
/Gordon\: "Who's Father Time?"
/Hefty\: "Father Time is a friend of ours, and he's the controller of time."
/Henry\: "Whoa, fascinating."
/Percy\: "So, what way did Father Time find?"
/Greedy\: "He gave Papa Smurf five time crystals and a time scroll."
/Jokey\: "And he also gave Grandpa Smurf the sapphire key to align the time crystals."
/Percy\: "Ohhhh."
/Vanity\: "And instead of time-traveling in a rainbow whirlwind, we time-traveled through a rainbow vortex."
/Thomas\: "Cinder and ashes."
/Painter\: "And zhat's how we got here."
/Emily\: "Amazing."
/Edward\: "Well James, looks like your wishing of seeing Grouchy again has finally came true."
/James\: "It sure did, Edward. It sure did."
/Smurfette\: "And your wishing of smurfing James again has also came true, Grouchy."
/Grouchy\: "I know, Smurfette. I know."
/Snappy\: "Boy, it's been two years since we last smurf you, Engines."
/Thomas\: "Likewise, Snappy. And a lot has changed since you all left the island, Smurfs."
/Sassette\: "Really? Like what?"
/Percy\: "Well, some old friends had returned to the island."
/Henry\: "Some new friends had arrived on the island."
/Gordon\: "And one of us made a great discovery."
/Handy\: "Wow! When can we smurf the other Engines and that great discovery?"
/Thomas\: "Tomorrow."
/Papa\: "Smurfy! And after all that time-traveling through a vortex, we all sure could use a rest."
/Thomas\: "Do you want my blanket, Smurfs? I still have it inside my cab."
/Papa\: "Thanks Thomas, but we all brought our sleeping stuff with us."
/Thomas\: "Oh good, you all came prepared."
/Clumsy\: "Yup, we sure did."
/Lazy\: "/YAWN\ Finally, I could use some smurf-eye. Thomas, can I smurf on you?"
/Thomas\: "Where? On top of my cab, or on my boiler and tanks?"
/Lazy\: "No."
Lazy hopped towards Thomas. And he stopped onto the little blue tank engine's front frame.
/Lazy\: "Right here."
/Thomas\: "Oh, on my front frame? Of course."
/Lazy\: "Thank you, Thomas."
Lazy took off his backpack, and he took out his pillow and blanket. And then the sleepy Smurf tucked himself in.
/Lazy\: "/YAWN\ Good night. /Snoring\"
/Thomas\: "/Giggling\ Good night, Lazy."
/Edward\: "You know, Lazy made a good choice, and I think we should do the same thing too."
/Grandpa\: "And I agree with Edward."
/Hefty\: "Hey Gordon, can I smurf with you?"
/Gordon\: "Of course you can, Hefty. Come on over."
Hefty hopped all the way to Gordon.
/Hefty\: "Thank you, Gordon."
/Gordon\: "My pleasure, Hefty."
/Henry\: "You Smurfs fill free to sleep with me."
/Percy\: "And me."
/Emily\: "And me."
/Edward\: "And me."
/Snappy\: "Smurf-a-roo! I'm smurfing with Thomas."
/Brainy\: "Me too.
/Handy\: "I'll be smurfing with Edward."
/Greedy\: "I'm smurfing with Henry."
/Painter\: "Moi alzo."
/Jokey\: "I'm smurfing with Percy."
/Clumsy\: "Uh, me too."
/Smurfette\: "I'm smurfing with Emily."
/Sassette\: "Me too."
/Papa\: "Wild, who do you want to smurf with?"
Wild looked at every Engine. And then, he pointed to Henry.
/Papa\: "Alright then, smurf with Henry."
/Wild\: "Smoo-wah!"
So every Smurf hopped to an Engine that they want to sleep with.
/Thomas\: "Papa Smurf, Grandpa Smurf, who do you want to sleep with?"
/Papa\: "I'll be smurfing with you, Thomas."
/Grandpa\: "And I'll smurf with Edward."
/Edward\: "/Giggling\ It's nice to have an old chap sleeping with me."
So Papa hopped all the way to Thomas, while Grandpa hopped onto Edward.
/James\: "Guess this leaves Grouchy and Vanity sleeping with me, is that right?"
/Grouchy\: "That's right."
/Vanity\: "You smurfed it."
/Thomas\: "Alright then, it's time to go to sleep."
/Engines\: "Good night, Smurfs. Sleep well."
/14 Smurfs minus Lazy\: "Good night, Engines. And you too smurf well."
/Wild\: "Smoo-wah."
One by one each, the seven Engines and the 16 Smurfs slowly closed their eyes, and they all went happily and peacefully to sleep.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nighttime came, and the sun had disappeared into the horizon. And everything around the Island of Sodor went silent.
At Tidmouth Sheds, all the Engines and the Smurfs were fast asleep. Well, except for one Engine and one Smurf.
Grouchy and James were the only ones still wide awake. They were looking at the nighttime sky. The two special friends could see the moon glowing brightly. The stars were twinkling. And they could also see a shooting star passing by. Grouchy and James were very happy to be together again. And they want their friendship to last forever.
Just then, the two special friends decided to chat. They both want to know how they've been doing for the past two years.
/James\: "Boy Grouchy, you don't know how much that I miss you for the past two years."
/Grouchy\: "And you don't know how much that I miss you too, James."
/James\: "And ever since you left the island, I've been dreaming and thinking about you during those two years."
/Grouchy\: "Me too, about you that is."
/James\: "But several days ago, I had a terrible time."
/Grouchy\: "Really? The same thing happened to me too."
/James\: "But before we talk about that, how you've been doing during those past couple of years?"
/Grouchy\: "Well, I've been doing smurfy."
/James\: "Have you been spending some time with Vanity? Are you two close friends?"
/Grouchy\: "Oh yes, I did smurf some time with Vanity, and we are close friends. And I also smurf some time with Baby Smurf."
/James\: "Well, that's good. And what else you've been doing?"
/Grouchy\: "Well you know, I've been smurfing around the village and stuff."
/James\: "Oh, alright."
/Grouchy\: "Now, what have you been smurfing during those past two years?"
/James\: "Well you know, I've been pulling coaches, pulling trucks, and I also been doing lots of stuff."
/Grouchy\: "Well, that's smurfy. And what else you've been smurfing?"
/James\: "Hmm... I think that's it."
/Grouchy\: "Oh, ok."
/James\: "Now, we can talk about our terrible times."
/Grouchy\: "Alright, you go first."
/James\: "Well, several days ago, I was pulling a fast special. I was puffing fine, till I started thinking about you. I was thinking about you too much, I arrived late to my destination, and the Fat Controller was cross with me."
/Grouchy\: "Oh, my."
/James\: "And that's not all. The next day, I coudn't stop thinking you, Grouchy. And do you know what my friends puffed to me?"
/Grouchy\: "No, what?"
/James\: "They puffed to me that I should move on."
/Grouchy\: "WHAT?"
/James\: "SHHHH! Can you see that everyone is sleeping?"
/Grouchy\: "Oops, sorry. And I hate for you to smurf on."
/James\: "I know. I don't want to move on too."
/Grouchy\: "So what happened next?"
/James\: "Well, on that day, I had to do my mixed-traffic work. But the same thing happened again, and I was late three times."
/Grouchy\: "Oh, smurfs."
/James\: "But wait, there's more. After finishing my jobs late, I was sent to see the Fat Controller, and he was even more cross when he heard me about being late three times. So I told the Fat Controller that I was too sad to work, and I asked him that I want some time off."
/Grouchy\: "And did you smurf some time off?"
/James\: "Yes."
/Grouchy\: "For how long?"
/James\: "Two weeks."
/Grouchy\: "Ohh."
/James\: "And that give me some time to let out my sad feelings and dream and think abot you, Grouchy. But even though, I want to do that for so long beyond my two weeks off, and do you know what the Fat Controller will do to me if I don't stop thinking about you?"
/Grouchy\: "No, what?"
/James\: "He would sent me away, meaning leaving the island."
/Grouchy\: "/GASP\ I hate for you to be smurfed away and leaving the island. And what will you do if you smurf the island?"
/James\: "Well, I could go to a place where I could be alone and let me dream and think about you, and let out my sad feelings."
/Grouchy\: "And will you miss your friends?"
/James\: "Yes, I will miss my friends. And I'll miss the Island of Sodor too."
/Grouchy\: "Oh, James."
/James\: "But, here comes the happy ending. After having a terrible conversation with my friends, I puffed out of the sheds and chuffed along the main line. I stopped right behind Gordon's Hill and began to cry. And that's when you came along and you lighten up my firebox, Grouchy."
/Grouchy\: "Now that's a smurfy ending, James."
/James\: "And now that you're back, I can go do my jobs again, and I can be a really useful Engine."
/Grouchy\: "And I was glad that I'm back on the island, so I can smurf you happy again and go do the things that you Engines usually do."
James just smiled grandly.
/Grouchy\: "Now, it's my turn to smurf about my unsmurfy time."
/James\: "Alright then, go on."
/Grouchy\: "Well, several days ago, it was during supper time. I was smurfing my supper. But then, I lost my appetite, 'cause I was too sad to smurf. My fellow Smurfs were concerned about me, and they all figured out that I was still smurfing about you, James. And they also smurf me that I should smurf on too, But I denied it."
/James\: "Oh, dear."
/Grouchy\: "And here's the part where it gets really unsmurfy."
James was surprised.
/Grouchy\: "After I smurf my fellow Smurfs that still miss you, one of them was smurfed up and he began to tease me and make me furious."
/James\: "Oh, my."
/Grouchy\: "And do you know what my fellow Smurf smurfed you?"
/James\: "No, what did your fellow Smurf called me?
/Grouchy\: "He smurfed you a red monster."
/James\: "WHAT?"
/Grouchy\: "SHHHH! Everysmurf is still smurfing."
/James\: "Oh, sorry. So who's the Smurf that called me a red monster?"
/Grouchy\: "Tuffy."
/James\: "Who's Tuffy?"
/Grouchy\: "Tuffy is the one who smurfs on smurfing that he's the toughest of all, but not that much. And he's the one who teased me and smurfing me mad."
/James\: "Well good thing he didn't come along with you and the others, 'cause if he does, I would wheesh steam at him."
/Grouchy\: "And that'll smurf him a lesson."
/James\: "So what happened next?"
/Grouchy\: "Well, Tuffy kept on teasing me and smurfing me mad. So I want to smurf him a piece of my smurf. But just as I was about to make Tuffy stop teasing me, Hefty and Willing smurfed both of my arms. So..."
/James\: "Wait, who's Willing?"
/Grouchy\: "Oh, Willing is another Smurf. And he used to be called Weakling."
/James\: "Oh, alright. Please continue."
/Grouchy\: "Ok. So Hefty and Willing stopped me for giving Tuffy a piece of my smurf, but he was still teasing me and smurfing me mad. But luckily, my fellow Smurfs were getting really furious with Tuffy, and he have had enough. And then, my fellow Smurfs escort Tuffy to his house, and I calmed mysmurf down and went back to my house."
/James\: "Oh, Grouchy."
/Grouchy\: "Now, here comes my happy ending. The next day, I decided to stay home and let me day-dream and think about you, James. But I over heard that Papa Smurf was going to smurf Father Time and find a way to return to the Island of Sodor, of which he did when he returned to the village. And the next day came, we were finally off to the Island of Sodor, and here we are. And lastly, I finally saw you, and you smurfed up my heart, James."
/James\: "Now that's indeed a very happy ending, Grouchy."
/Grouchy\: "It sure is, James. It sure is."
Just then, Grouchy noticed something. He could see a gold object hanging on James' cab roof-mounted whistle. Grouchy knew what it is.
/Grouchy\: "I smurf that you still have my heart-of-gold charm."
/James\: "Yes Grouchy, I still have your charm, and I never once lose it."
/Grouchy\: "Well, smurfy for you."
/James\: "And I see that you still have my old brake block."
/Grouchy\: "Yes James, I still have you charm also, and I been wearing it around my neck ever since me and my fellow Smurfs returned to the village."
/James\: "Well, good for you."
/Grouchy\: "And I also see that you got your wheels painted red."
/James\: "Yes, I did that too, and I look twice as splendid than ever before. And it's all thanks to you, Grouchy."
/Grouchy\: "Yeah, and I'm glad that I smurf you that."
Grouchy and James paused for a moment. And then they turned to the nighttime sky.
Suddenly, the two special friends could hear Vanity talking in his sleep.
/Vanity\: "/Snoring\ Hello, handsome. /Snoring\ You hunk of smurf you. /Snoring\"
/Grouchy and James\: "/Giggling\"
/James\: "Vanity most be dreaming about himself."
/Grouchy\: "Yeah, as usual."
/James\: "Sometimes I dream about myself."
/Grouchy\: "You do?"
/James\: "Yes."
/Grouchy\: "Oh, ok. /BIG YAWN\ Well, it's time for me to smurf some sleep."
/James\: "Me too. /BIG YAWN\"
Grouchy took out his pillow and blanket from his backpack, and he tucked himself in.
/Grouchy\: "Good night, James. Smurfy dreams."
/James\: "Good night, Grouchy. And "smurfy" dreams to you too."
Grouchy and James slowly closed their eyes, and the two went happily and peacefully to sleep. As the two special friends fell fast asleep, they were dreaming about things that they both were going to do. And when the next day come, they're going to have a wonderful time now that they're together again.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Acela Smurf7): Isn't this smurfy? Grouchy and James are together again. And all I could say is: Let's see what's going to happen next in the next chapter, and we'll find out soon enough.

Chapter 4: Smurfing The Island - Again!
Last time, things were going very well. In the medieval times, Papa, Grandpa, Snappy, Sassette, Smurfette, Brainy, Clumsy, Greedy, Grouchy, Handy, Hefty, Jokey, Lazy, Vanity, Painter, and Wild were finally going to the Island of Sodor. And the 16 Smurfs were all off to the island using the magical supplies that Father Time gave to Papa and Grandpa. But, in the Island of Sodor, things were going terrible. James was all alone at Tidmouth Sheds, and he's starting to have his two weeks off. Mr. Conductor came to the sheds to check on James. When evening came, Thomas, Edward, Henry, Gordon, Percy, and Emily returned home to the sheds. The six Engines began to talk to James, telling him that he should move on and stuff. But James denied it and puffed dramatically out of the sheds. And he ended up all alone at the countryside along the main line. Meanwhile, the 16 Smurfs had arrived on the island. Grouchy and James found each other. And the #5 engine found the other Smurfs and took them and Grouchy to Tidmouth Sheds. When James returned to the sheds, the Smurfs surprised Thomas and the other five Engines, and they explained everything about how the 16 Smurfs managed to return to the Island of Sodor. When nighttime came, Grouchy and James talked about on how they've been doing for the past two years and other stuff. And now that Grouchy and James are together again, the two special friends are going to have a wonderful time. So let's see what's going to happen next!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was another bright sunny day on the Island of Sodor. Everything around the island was getting ready to start yet another busy day. And some of the Engines on the Fat Controller's railway were up bright and early to get the island moving again.
At Tidmouth Sheds, Thomas, his six friends, and the 16 Smurfs were wide awake. The little blue tykes couldn't wait to see the changes around the island. And everyone did indeed had a very good night sleep, especially Grouchy and James.
Just then, everyone heard four dings.
/Toby\: "/DING-DING! DING-DING!\"
/Handy\: "Look! Here comes Toby!"
/Jokey\: "Quick, let's hide and surprise him!"
/Thomas\: "And you all can come out when I say "now"."
And the 16 Smurfs hide themselves behind the seven Engines.
Toby came and parked right next to James.
/Toby\: "Good morning, everybody."
/The seven Engines minus Toby\: "Good morning, Toby."
/Toby\: "And James, Thomas told me everything about your misery and stuff. I know that you miss Grouchy. I miss him and the other Smurfs as well. But you really need to understand that it's for the best, and I know you might deny it. Well, at least you got your two weeks off. So, I won't trouble you anyway."
/James\: "Thank you for your concern, Toby. But I'm actually feeling happy, and I'm planning on going back to doing my jobs again."
/Toby\: "Really? Why, that's splendid."
/James\: "Yes."
/Toby\: "So, what made you change your mind?"
/James\: "Do you really want to know?"
/Toby\: "Oh yes, I really do."
/James\: "Alright then... IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF THIS! THOMAS?"
/Thomas\: "NOW!"
And the 16 Smurfs unhide themselves from the seven Engines and surprised Toby.
/The 15 Smurfs minus Wild\: "SURPRISE!"
/Wild\: "SMOO-WAH!"
Toby was surprised.
/Toby\: "Well, bless my bell! Smurfs, you came back!"
/Greedy\: "We sure did!"
/Toby\: "But, how did you all manage to return to the island?"
/Papa\: "That Toby, is something that I will explain to you."
So Papa began to tell Toby the whole story.
And when the leader Smurf was finished, the #7 engine was amazed.
/Toby\: "Bust my buffers, now that's a wonderful explanation."
/Clumsy\: "It sure is, Toby. It sure is."
/Toby\: "And a lot has changed since you Smurfs left the island."
/Painter\: "We know, and Monsieur Thomas iz going to show uz now."
/Thomas\: "But not now, we have to wait for the Fat Controller first."
/Brainy\: "Oh, right, we forgot about that."
/Snappy\: "Oh, I don't like to wait. Can we just go?"
/Edward\: "No, Snappy. The Fat Controller will be cross with us if one of us left the sheds."
/Papa\: "And you have to respect that from now on, Snappy."
/Snappy\: "Oh, smurfs."
/Sassette\: "So when is Sir Topham coming?"
/Henry\: "He should be coming in a few minutes."
But Henry was wrong.
Just then, the Engines and the 16 Smurfs could see a little blue car approaching. It was the Fat Controller. "/Sound of a car approaching\"
/Hefty\: "Look! Here he comes!"
/Jokey\: "Come on! Let's surprise him too!"
/James\: "And this time, I'll say "now"."
And once again, the 16 Smurfs hide themselves behind the seven Engines but Toby.
The Fat Controller came to a complete stop. "/Sound of a car stopping\" He got out of his car, and he began walking towards the sheds. And then he stopped and looked at his Engines.
The Fat Controller could see that the Engines were waiting on what he would say.
/The Fat Controller\: "/To himself\ Mm-hmm. Good. Very quiet."
But then, the Fat Controller noticed something. He was looking at James. And he could see that the #5 engine was smiling. This made him wonder and he wants to know immediately.
/The Fat Controller\: "James, is there a reason why you're smiling?"
/James\: "Why yes, there is a reason why I'm smiling. I'm happy!"
/The Fat Controller\: "And why are you so happy about?"
/James\: "You'll never believe it, but look who came back, Sir!"
The Fat Controller was puzzled.
/The Fat Controller\: "Who came back?"
James turned to his friends.
/James\: "NOW!"
And the 16 Smurfs unhide themselves from the seven Engines(Except Toby) and surprised the Fat Controller.
/The 15 Smurfs minus Wild\: "SURPRISE!"
/Wild\: "SMOO-WAH!"
The Fat Controller was indeed surprised.
/The Fat Controller\: "Well I'll be the Orient Express! The Smurfs are back!"
/Vanity\: "And still looking smurfy."
/The Fat Controller\: "But, I don't understand. How you all manage to return to the Island of Sodor?"
/Papa\: "Well Sir Topham, allow me to explain everything to you."
/The Fat Controller\: "Please, do explain."
So Papa began to tell the Fat Controller the whole story.
And when the second oldest Smurf was finished, the Fat Controller was amazed.
/The Fat Controller\: "Amazing, simply amazing."
/Thomas\: "It sure is, Sir. It sure is."
/James\: "And Sir, now that my special Smurf friend has come back, may I come back to work, please?"
/Grouchy\: "Oh yes, can he?"
The Fat Controller smiled.
/The Fat Controller\: "Well, I didn't see that coming. And yes James, you may come back to work. And consider your two weeks off over."
James was delighted.
And Grouchy felt pleased.
/The Fat Controller\: "Now I need to make some arrangements, and I know just the magical person to turn to. /Shouting\ MR. CONDUCTOR!"
/Smurfette\: "Who's Mr. Conductor?"
/Emily\: "You'll find out right now."
Just then, a golden sparkle appeared in mid-air right next to the Fat Controller. And Mr. Conductor magically appeared, right before the 16 Smurfs' eyes.
/The 14 Smurfs minus Papa and Grandpa\: "Oooh. Aaah."
/Papa\: "Amazing, simply amazing."
/Grandpa\: "I smurf to that too."
/James\: "Mr. Conductor, look! The Smurfs are back!"
Mr. Conductor noticed it.
/Mr. Conductor\: "Well, hello. So nice to meet you all, and welcome back to the Island of Sodor."
/Papa\: "Thank you, and it's so smurfy to smurf you too. And are you a wizard?"
/Mr. Conductor\: "Well, not really. I'm just a regular magical being who can handle the magic and power of the gold dust."
/Grandpa\: "Gold dust? Now that's a smurfy way of using magic."
/Mr. Conductor\: "It sure is, and it's that easy."
The 16 Smurfs were very impressed.
/Mr. Conductor\: "Now, you call me, Sir?"
/The Fat Controller\: "Yes, I did. Can you please find Neville and tell him to stop doing James' jobs. James is coming back to work."
/Mr. Conductor\: "Oh, of course. Ahem, excuse me. I'll be back in a few minutes."
Mr. Conductor took out his whistle from his jacket pocket. And with a blow from his whistle, "/TWEET!\" He magically disappeared.
The 16 Smurfs were even more impressed.
/Hefty\: "Wow, he can transmurf by using his whistle."
/Handy\: "Is Mr. Conductor's whistle magical?"
/Edward\: "Yes. It can hold and store the gold dust."
/Painter\: "Ooh-la-la, now that'z smurfy."
/Brainy\: "Papa Smurf, is there something that you had to smurf Sir Topham about something?"
/Papa\: "Why no, Brainy. But, what is it?"
/Brainy\: "You know... /Whispering\"
/Papa\: "Ohhh, that. Guess I completely forgot. Ahem, Sir Topham?"
/The Fat Controller\: "Yes, Papa Smurf?"
/Papa\: "Even though we're glad to be back in the Island of Sodor, but we're also here to smurf you something."
/The Fat Controller\: "And what is it that you want to ask me?"
/Papa\: "Well, we like to invite Thomas, Edward, Henry, Gordon, James, Percy, Toby, and Emily to our home village in our time period."
/The Steam Team\: "/All gasping\"
The Fat Controller was surprised.
But the eight Engines were excited.
/Thomas\: "Oh, I always dreamed of going to the Smurf village, and it's coming true!"
/Edward\: "This is wonderful!"
/Henry\: "What an adventure we'll have!"
/Gordon\: "How exciting!"
/James\: "What a grand invitation!"
/Percy\: "What excitement!"
/Toby\: "What thrills!"
/Emily\: "Oh, I can't wait!"
/Thomas\: "Oh Sir, can we please go there?"
/James\: "Yes, can we?"
The Fat Controller wasn't sure.
/The Fat Controller\: "Oh dear, I don't know. Sounds dangerous to me."
/Papa\: "And don't worry, we'll smurf great smurfy care of them just like they did to us when we first arrived on the Island of Sodor."
/Snappy\: "Yeah, we'll absosmurfly take great smurfy care of Thomas and his friends."
/Sassette\: "So please, Sir Topham. Can they come to our home village?"
The Fat Controller still wasn't sure.
Just then, Mr. Conductor magically appeared.
/Mr. Conductor\: "Sir, I found Neville and he got the message."
/The Fat Controller\: "Very good."
/Thomas\: "Guess what Mr. Conductor? The Smurfs are inviting the eight of us to their home village in their time period!"
/Mr. Conductor\: "Really? That's wonderful."
/James\: "But the Fat Controller wasn't sure about that."
/Mr. Conductor\: "Sir, I think you should let them go, and I'm sure that the Smurfs will take great care of them. And after all... /Whispering\"
/The Fat Controller\: "Oh yes, I forgot about that."
/Papa\: "So Sir Topham, what do you have to smurf?"
/The Fat Controller\: "Hmm, let me think about it, alright."
So the Fat Controller began to ponder. He pondered, and pondered, and pondered, and pondered.
The Steam Team and the 16 Smurfs were nervous. Especially Grouchy and James.
The Fat Controller kept on pondering. Then he turned to the eight Engines and 16 Smurfs. He could see that they're waiting nervously on what he would say. The Fat Controller went on pondering.
/Thomas\: "Oh, what's he going to say?"
/Brainy\: "He sure smurfs stern."
/James\: "Oh Grouchy, I hope he says yes."
/Grouchy\: "Me too, and I would hate him if he smurfs no."
/Snappy\: "I bet he's going to take forever."
/Edward\: "Just be patient, Snappy. It won't be long now."
And the Steam Team and the 16 Smurfs went on waiting.
But at long last, after having a thought, the Fat Controller made his decision.
/The Fat Controller\: "Oh, alright. You all can go to the Smurfs' village."
The Steam Team and 16 Smurfs were delighted.
/The Steam Team and the 16 Smurfs\: "HOORAY!"
/Thomas\: "Oh, thank you, Sir!"
/Papa\: "Yes, thank you, Sir Topham!"
/The Fat Controller\: "But before you Engines go there, I want all of you to do your jobs and show me some good progress today. If you all finish your jobs perfectly, then the eight of you may go to the Smurfs' village."
/The Steam Team\: "Alright, Sir."
/Thomas\: "It's a deal."
/The Fat Controller\: "Good. Now, here are your jobs for today; Thomas, you'll be working on your branch line; Edward, you'll be working on your branch line also; Henry, you'll be doing your mixed-traffic work on the main line; Gordon, you'll be pulling the express; James, you'll be doing your mixed-traffic work around the island; Percy, you'll be pulling the post train; Toby, you'll be working on Thomas' branch line; And Emily, you'll be working on Thomas' branch line also."
/The Steam Team\: "Yes, and right away, Sir."
/Thomas\: "Oh, Sir? Before I go do my job, I want to show the Smurfs the things that had change around the island. So please, may I?"
/The Fat Controller\: "Well of course Thomas, you may show the Smurfs around the island."
/Thomas\: "Thank you, Sir."
/The Fat Controller\: "But, you Smurfs better not let anyone see you, or there'll be commotion around the island."
/Papa\: "Don't worry, Sir Topham. I have a magic formula that will make us Smurfs invisible to people. And I made some modifications in this formula so you, Mr. Conductor, and the Engines on Sodor can only see us."
/The Fat Controller\: "Oh good, that was very clever thinking, Papa Smurf."
/Mr. Conductor\: "Very clever indeed."
/Papa\: "Thank you."
/Grandpa\: "Alright Smurfs, let's all gather 'round on Thomas."
So the 14 Smurfs and Grandpa all went to Thomas. And everyone was all gathered up.
Papa took out his magic formula from his backpack. The formula is in a spray jar. And one by one, the leader Smurf sprayed the formula on the 14 Smurfs, Grandpa, and himself.
The Fat Controller, Mr. Conductor and the Steam Team were very amazed and impressed.
/Papa\: "Ok, can all of you still smurf us?"
/The Fat Controller and Mr. Conductor\: "Yes."
/The Steam Team\: "We can still see you."
/Papa\: "Then my formula is working."
/Grandpa\: "It sure did."
/The Fat Controller\: "Alright then, just be careful when you do something, Smurfs. And Engines, that will be all for today, and I'll see you all tonight. Cheerio."
/The Steam Team\: "Cheerio, Sir."
/The 15 Smurfs minus Wild\: "Smurfio, Sir Topham."
/Mr. Conductor\: "Bye, Sir."
/The Fat Controller\: "Bye, Mr. Conductor."
The 16 Smurfs, the Steam Team and Mr. Conductor watched as the Fat Controller got into his little blue car, and he drove away. "/Sound of a car leaving\"
/Mr. Conductor\: "Well, I better get going on my job, I'll see you Engines and Smurfs later."
/The Steam Team\: "Bye, Mr. C."
/The 16 Smurfs\: "Smurf you later, Mr. Conductor."
Mr. Conductor took out his whistle from his jacket pocket. And with a blow from his whistle, "/TWEET!\" he magically disappeared.
/Percy\: "You know Smurfs, you all can also call Mr. Conductor "Mr. C.".
/Brainy\: "Hmm, "Mr. C.". I like that, it smurfs so small."
/The 12 Smurfs minus Papa, Grandpa, Brainy, and Wild\: "And we like that too."
/Thomas\: "Well, are you all ready to see the changes around Sodor?"
/Clumsy\: "Yes Thomas, we are."
/Grouchy\: "Not me! I want to smurf with James."
/Vanity\: "Me too."
/James\: "But Grouchy, Vanity, don't you want to see the other Engines and that great discovery?"
/Grouchy\: "No, I wanna smurf with you!"
/Vanity\: "Yeah!"
/Smurfette\: "But Grouchy, Vanity, you'll be missing everything."
/Painter\: "Oui, Ztay with uz."
/Grouchy\: "I don't want to! I wanna smurf with James!"
/Vanity\: "Me too!"
/Thomas\: "Oh, dear."
James thought for a moment. And then, an idea flew through his funnel.
/James\: "I'll puff you both what, go with Thomas and he'll drop both of you off at the great discovery and I'll meet you two there."
/Thomas\: "What a grand idea, James."
/Hefty\: "Yeah, and very smurfy too."
/Handy\: "So what do you two smurf?"
Grouchy and Vanity wasn't sure. But then, the two Smurf thought it was a good idea and they made up their minds.
/Grouchy\: "Oh, alright."
/Vanity\: "But do you promise that you will be there?"
/James\: "Of course I will."
Then James remembered something.
/James\: "Remember this, Grouchy. Cross my boiler and hope to scrap."
Grouchy did remember that promise.
/Grouchy\: "Smurf my heart and hope to smurf."
/Vanity\: "Huh?"
/Grouchy\: "It's a promise that me and James smurfed when he and I had our time together a long time ago."
/Vanity\: "Oh, well that's smurfy."
/Edward\: "It is indeed."
/Thomas\: "Alright, let's get chuffing."
/Greedy\: "Oh, and Thomas? Can we get smurfthing for breakfast first, I'm kinda hungry."
/The 14 Smurfs minus Greedy and Wild\: "Yeah, us too."
/Wild\: "/Chattering\"
/Thomas\: "Alright, I get you Smurfs some breakfast."
/Greedy\: "Smurfy, thank you, Thomas."
And the 16 Smurfs all jumped up to Thomas' boiler and tanks.
/Thomas\: "Alright then, let's go."
/Snappy and Sassette\: "Smurf the way, Thomas!"
/The 13 Smurfs minus Grouchy, Vanity, and Wild\: "Smurf you later, Engines."
/The six Engines minus Thomas and James\: ""Smurf" you later too, Smurfs."
/Grouchy and Vanity\: "Smurf you later, James."
/James\: ""Smurf" you later, Grouchy, Vanity."
/Wild\: "SMOO-WAH!"
With a wheesh of steam, Thomas chuffed happily away.
And one by one, the other seven Engines puffed out of their sheds, and they all set off to their jobs.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After leaving Tidmouth Sheds, Thomas, along with the 16 Smurfs, was chuffing through the countryside to find something for the 16 blue gnomes to have breakfast.
/Thomas\: "We'll stop by at the bakery, it'll have something for you Smurfs to have breakfast."
/Lazy\: "What do they have at the bakery?"
/Thomas\: "Well, they have bread, crumpets, muffins, scones, and many other things."
/Papa\: "That sounds smurfy, we'll have some of those."
/Hefty\: "Well, I'm in the mood for some pancakes."
/Greedy\: "But Hefty, I need the ingredients to make pancakes."
/Thomas\: "And what ingredients do you need to make pancakes?"
/Greedy\: "Easy, I need flour, eggs, and milk."
/Thomas\: "Oh no problem, I know where to get those ingredients."
/Greedy\: "Smurfy, thank you, Thomas."
/Snappy\: "Of course, we're going to need some butter for our breakfast."
/Sassette\: "And we need something to drink too."
/Smurfette\: "And don't forget that we need some jam."
/Thomas\: "Oh I can get those too. So you Smurfs just sit back and watch me get those things for your breakfast."
/Handy\: "Once again, thank you, Thomas."
Thomas just had to smile.
First, the #1 engine went to the bakery. While he got there, he ordered and collected the baking goods.
/Greedy\: "Mmm, yum yum."
Thomas thanked the baker.
/Thomas\: "Thank you. /PEEP! PEEP!\"
Next, Thomas chuffed off to the places to get the ingredients for Greedy to make some pancakes. First, he went to the dairy to get a small bottle of milk. Next, he went to the mill to get a small bag of flour. And then, he went to Farmer McColl's to get a half-dozen eggs.
Good thing Greedy brought his cooking supplies, and in no time, he was making some pancakes.
Lastly, Thomas went to a town market to get some butter, jam, and a small bottle of fruit juice.
And in no time, and after Thomas had found a nice spot at the woods, the 16 Smurfs were having their big breakfast.
/Papa\: "Mmm, this scone is smurfy."
/Grandpa\: "I like this muffin."
/Hefty\: "The pancakes are just smurfy. Thanks, Greedy."
/Greedy\: "You're welcome, Hefty. And there's plenty more where that came from. Yum."
/Painter\: "Sacre Smurf, zhese eggz are magnifique."
/Clumsy\: "Yup, they sure are."
/Brainy\: "Well, bread with jam is fine."
/Grouchy\: "I love this crumpet."
/Vanity\: "Me too, with some butter."
/Smurfette\: "Ooh, this fruit juice is so tasty."
/Lazy\: "I'll smurf."
/Wild\: "/SIGH\"
/Sassette\: "Depressing dolphins Wild, what's wrong?"
/Snappy\: "Are you hungry?"
/Wild\: "Uh-huh."
/Jokey\: "Maybe he wants to smurf something else."
/Handy\: "But this is all that Thomas smurf for us."
/Thomas\: "Well, what does Wild eat for breakfast?"
/Papa\: "Well, Wild eats acorns, smurfberries, and some of Greedy's treats."
/Brainy\: "Papa Smurf, I think that it's time for Wild to smurf something else.
/Wild\: "Huh?"
/Brainy\: "Come on, Wild. Here, want some bread?"
/Wild\: "Nah-uh."
/Brainy\: "Want a crumpet?"
/Wild\: "Nah-uh."
/Brainy\: "A muffin?"
/Wild\: "Mm-mmm."
/Brainy\: "Or maybe a scone?"
/Wild\: "Blah!"
/Greedy\: "Maybe he wants some pancakes?"
/Wild\: "/RASSBERRY\"
/Greedy\: "/MOAN\"
/Painter\: "How about zome eggz?"
/Wild\: "YUCK!"
/Painter\: "/SIGH\"
/Brainy\: "Oh it's no use, he'll never eat this stuff."
/Thomas\: "Hmm."
Thomas looked all around. But then, he could see an animal in the distant. It was a squirrel.
/Thomas\: "Look Wild, that squirrel is looking for some acorns."
/Papa\: "Thomas is right, look Wild."
Wild looked at where Papa was pointing at, and he could see that the squirrel was looking for some acorns. The long-lost-but-found Smurf was delighted and he jumped off of Thomas, and he raced towards the woods.
/Thomas\: "Don't go too far, Wild!"
/Wild\: "Smoo-wah!"
/Brainy\: "Oh, I bet he'll take forever to smurf for some acorns."
/Thomas\: "Don't be daft, Brainy. I'm sure Wild will be back in no time."
/Brainy\: "You'll see, Thomas. He'll be taking so long."
But Brainy was wrong.
/Wild\: "SMOO-WAH!"
Wild came back in 20 seconds flat and he found three acorns.
/Thomas\: "You were puffing, Brainy?"
Brainy felt speechless and he said nothing else.
Wild jumped back aboard Thomas.
/Greedy\: "I smurf you found some acorns, Wild. Want me to cook them for you?"
/Wild\: "Mm-mmm."
/Papa\: "I think Wild wants his acorns just the way it is, Greedy."
/Greedy\: "Oh alright, have it your way, Wild."
And in no time, Wild was having his breakfast. And the other 15 Smurfs went on having more of their breakfast also.
At long last, after having a very big breakfast, the 16 Smurfs were finally finished. They cleaned up everything off of Thomas' boiler and tanks, and they put the leftovers right inside of Thomas' cab.
/Greedy\: "Ahh, that was a very smurfy breakfast."
/Handy\: "It sure is."
/Hefty\: "I'm smurfed."
/Smurfette\: "Me too."
/Sassette\: "Me three."
/Snappy\: "Me four."
/Papa\: "Thank you for getting the stuff for our breakfast, Thomas."
/Thomas\: "You're welcome, Papa Smurf. Now, are you all ready to see the changes on Sodor?"
/Clumsy\: "Yup Thomas, we're all ready."
/Thomas\: "Alright then, let's go."
And Thomas chuffed off out of the woods.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After leaving the woods, Thomas, along with the 16 Smurfs, was now at the western part of the Island of Sodor.
The little blue tank engine was going to introduce the 16 little blue gnomes to some of his old friends, the ones who had been away for a not-so-long time.
/Smurfette\: "Ooh, I can't wait to smurf the Engines who had return to the island."
/Brainy\: "And don't forget, the ones who arrived new to the island too. Oh, and Thomas, has the #8 and #11 engines came back yet?"
/Thomas\: "Yes, they both had returned from England."
/Brainy\: "Oh smurfy, 'cause I had been leaving question marks on their pages when I smurfblished the book about the Island of Sodor."
/Thomas\: "Well you better republish your book when you see the question marks revealed."
/Brainy\: "I know, and that'll be a big pain in the smurf when I had to smurf the other Smurfs to return the books back to me."
/Thomas\: "Oh well, as Painter will always puff, "c'est la vie". Now, let's see if my two oldest friends are in their sheds."
/Snappy\: "Oh, I hope they're there."
As Thomas arrived at the three-berth sheds, he and the 16 Smurfs were relieved.
Duck and Oliver were in their sheds. And there right next to the #11 engine, was Toad the Great Western Brakevan.
The two Great Western Engines and the brakevan were pleased to see Thomas.
/Duck and Oliver\: "Hello, Thomas."
/Toad\: "Hello, Mr. Thomas."
/Thomas\: "Hello, you three."
Then Duck, Oliver, and Toad noticed the 16 Smurfs.
/Duck\: "/GASP\ Thomas, are they who I think they are?"
/Oliver\: "At long last!"
/Toad\: "Oh, my!"
/Thomas\: "You got that right, you three. Smurfs, these are my oldest friends, Duck, Oliver and Toad."
/Jokey\: "/Laughing\ Duck? I can't believe that an Engine is named after an animal! And I bet you talk in duck! QUACK-QUACK-QUACK! /Laughing\"
This made Duck cross.
/Duck\: "Now see here! I just happen to like being called "Duck"! And it sure peeps my real name!"
/Brainy\: "And what is your real name, Duck?"
/Duck\: "It's Montague."
/Brainy\: "Oh, well that's a smurfy name."
/Duck\: "To you maybe, but not to me."
/Oliver\: "But that's not all, there's another reason why he's being called "Duck"."
/Clumsy\: "Gosh, what is it?"
/Oliver\: "Go on, Duck. Tell them."
/Duck\: "Ohh, I guess I must. The other reason why I'm being called "Duck" is because... I waddle like a duck."
/Clumsy\: "Oh, smurfs."
/Duck\: "Yes, and I just can't stop doing that nasty habit."
/Clumsy\: "Ohhh, it's ok, Duck. I have an unsmurfy habit too."
/Duck\: "Do you now? What is it?"
/Clumsy\: "I always trip and make things go wrong."
/Duck\: "Oh, my. Tell me, what's your name?"
/Clumsy\: "My name is Clumsy."
/Duck\: "Well Clumsy, I see why you're named after those nasty habits, and we have a lot in common."
/Clumsy\: "A-huck, yeah. I guess we do."
Just then, a special connection begin to form between Clumsy and Duck. The #8 engine and the nitwitted Smurf understand each other's feelings.
/Clumsy\: "So Duck, are you the #8 engine?"
/Duck\: "I'm sure am."
/Brainy\: "And Oliver is the #11 engine, right?"
/Oliver\: "You puff that right."
Then Brainy noticed the three letters on Duck's right-side tank.
/Brainy\: "Say Duck, you have the letters "G", "W", and "R" on your tank, what does it smurfs for?"
/Duck\: "It stands for "Great Western Railway"."
/Brainy and Clumsy\: "Ohh."
/Oliver\: "I also have those letters on both sides of me."
/Brainy\: "Ooh, smurfy."
Then Handy noticed Toad.
/Handy\: "Oliver, who's he right next to you again?"
/Oliver\: "This is Toad, my brakevan."
/Handy\: "What's a brakevan?"
/Thomas\: "A brakevan is the last truck of a train."
/Handy\: "Oh, I see."
/Jokey\: "Hee-hee-hee. And why his name is Toad? Does he croak like a toad?"
/Oliver\: "No. You see, back when Duck and me used to work along the Great Western Railway, the wagons on the railway were given nicknames from animals."
/The 15 Smurfs minus Wild\: "Ohhh."
/Oliver\: "So that's why I named my brakevan "Toad". Right, Toad?"
/Toad\: "That's right, Mr. Oliver."
/Hefty\: "And he sure always likes to smurf you Engines "Mr."."
/Smurfette\: "And don't forget "Miss" to girl Engines, Hefty."
/Toad\: "I'm just being polite, and I'm being respectful to the Engines. And that's why I always address them as "Mr." and "Miss"."
/Sassette\: "Gee Snappy, maybe Toad should teach you a thing or two on being polite and respectful."
/Snappy\: "I already know how to be polite and respectful!"
/Sassette\: "Yeah, only a little bit!"
/Snappy\: "Oh, put a smurf in it!"
/Sassette\: "See! That's not polite!"
/Snappy\: "Uhh, who smurfs you?"
/Papa\: "Sassette, Snappy, stop it right now!"
/Snappy\: "She started it!"
/Sassette\: "Did not!"
/Papa\: "Sassette, Snappy, I'm warning you both! Smurf it out!"
Sassette and Snappy did as Papa told them to and they said nothing else.
/Thomas\: "Finally some peace."
/Oliver\: "Oh well. As Duck would always say: "there are two ways of doing things: the Great Western way, or the wrong way"."
/Duck\: "Oliver, I told you not to puff my quote ever again."
/Oliver\: "Sorry, but I can't help it."
/Brainy\: "Well, I think Oliver has the right to smurf that quote. And I say, that quote is so smurfy, and I think I should smurf my fellow Smurfs that: "there are two ways of smurfing things: the smurfy way, or the wrong way"."
/Lazy\: "And you always smurf things the wrong way, Brainy."
/Brainy\: "Well, I also smurf things the smurfy way too, Lazy."
/Lazy\: "Yeah, only a little bit."
/Brainy\: "Humph!"
/Oliver\: "Nevermind Uh, Umm... What's your name again?"
/Brainy\: "Who, me? It's Brainy."
/Oliver\: "Oh. Nevermind Brainy, I realized that what I've done is not right, and I should listen to Duck. Besides, I am supposed to be much wiser, and a good role model."
/Brainy\: "Ohhh. Well, maybe I should be much more wiser, and maybe I should be a smurfy role model."
/Hefty\: "Yeah, right, good luck with that."
/Brainy\: "Well I could be if you let me, Hefty!"
/Papa\: "Yes Hefty, give Brainy a chance."
/Hefty\: "Oh, alright. I wish you luck, Brainy."
/Brainy\: "Thanks, Hefty. And thank you, Oliver, and I sure could learn more from you. You're my role model."
/Oliver\: "/Chuckling\ You're welcome, Brainy."
Just then, another special connection begin to form, and it's between Brainy and Oliver. The #11 engine and the spectacled Smurf really understand each other perfectly.
/Duck\: "Well, me and Oliver should get puffing, I'm scheduled to get a new coat of paint."
/Oliver\: "And I'm scheduled to pull a goods train."
/Toad\: "And I'm going with Mr. Oliver."
/Clumsy\: "Alright, and it's smurfy to smurf you Duck."
/Brainy\: "And you too, Oliver."
/Toad\: "Ahem!"
/Brainy\: "Oh, and Toad."
/Duck, Oliver, and Toad\: "And it's nice to meet you all too, Smurfs."
/Grouchy\: "Hey Duck, while you get your new coat of green paint, get your wheels painted green too."
/Duck\: "No. I'm not getting my wheels painted, I like my black wheels."
/Grouchy\: "Then I HATE your black wheels!"
/Duck\: "Pumping pistons, that's so rude!"
/Clumsy\: "Grouchy!"
/Grouchy\: "Well that's the truth! I don't like smurfing Engines with black wheels!"
Duck felt hurt. But then, he started to figure out something.
/Duck\: "Are you the one who told James that he should get his wheels painted red?"
/Grouchy\: "Yes!"
/Duck\: "Bother! Thanks to you, James is now bragging about how twice as splendid as he is!"
/Grouchy\: "And I'm glad that I smurf James to get his wheels painted red!"
Duck was cross.
But Oliver thought for a moment. He thinks that Duck should get his wheels painted green.
/Oliver\: "Duck, I think I agree with that grumpy Smurf, you really should get your wheels painted green."
/Duck\: "Oh no, Oliver, not you too."
/Oliver\: "Well, look at me. I'm green, and I have green wheels to match with it. So why won't a green Engine like you should get his wheels painted green to match his green coat?"
Duck wasn't sure. He turned to Grouchy. He could see that the former bad-tempered Smurf was scowling at him. Then he turned to Oliver. And he could see that the 2nd Great Western Engine was smiling at him. And at long last, after seeing both Grouchy and Oliver, Duck had no other choice.
/Duck\: "Oh alright, I'll get my wheels painted green. And if it's the only way for that grumpy Smurf to stop pacing his cross face at me, he's making my wheels wobble."
After hearing that, Grouchy stopped pacing his scowled face at Duck and he grinned a little grin.
And Oliver was delighted.
/Duck\: "And one thing for sure, I won't become a really splendid Engine like James."
After Oliver was coupled up to Toad, he and Duck are ready to go.
/The 15 Smurfs minus Wild\: "Good-bye, Duck. Good-bye, Oliver. Good-bye, Toad."
/Duck, Oliver, and Toad\: "Good-bye, Smurfs."
And with two by two toots, "/PEEP! PEEP!\" "/PEEP! PEEP!\" the two Great Western Engines chuffed away, with Toad clattering behind Oliver.
The 16 Smurfs watched as Duck, Oliver, and Toad disappeared.
/Clumsy\: "Golly, it was very smurfy to smurf Duck."
/Brainy\: "And Oliver."
/Sassette\: "Don't forget Toad."
/Thomas\: "Well, I'm glad you all finally meet them. Now then, let's keep on going, there are more Engines that you Smurfs have to meet."
/Snappy\: "Smurf the way, Thomas!"
/Thomas\: "You puff it, Snappy!"
And with his fire in his firebox flaming, Thomas, along with the 16 Smurfs, chuffed off to continue showing the little blue tykes the rest of the Sodor locomotive fleet.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Along the countryside up north, Thomas introduced the 16 Smurfs to another old friend who had returned to Sodor, and that is Stepney the Bluebell Engine.
Stepney was very glad to meet the 16 Smurfs.
Next, Thomas introduced the 16 Smurfs three more old friends, and these three friends are diesels, and they are, Boco,... Derek,... and Daisy.
The three diesels were very glad to meet the 16 Smurfs. And Sassette and Smurfette were very glad to meet Daisy.
And lastly, Thomas introduced the 16 Smurfs to three old friends who are non-rail contraptions, and they are, Terence the Tractor,... George the Steamroller,... and Caroline the Vintage Car.
Sassette and Smurfette were very glad to meet Caroline, while the other 14 Smurfs were very pleased to meet her and the other two.
And now, Thomas introduced the 16 Smurfs to three new friends who arrived on Sodor, and they are, Stanley the Silver Engine,... Hank the American Engine,... and Flora, a young tram engine and an Engineling.
The two Smurfettes were very pleased to meet Flora.
And after that, Thomas, along with the 16 Smurfs, chuffed away.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After Thomas had introduced the 16 Smurfs to the rest of the Sodor locomotive fleet, the #1 engine was now going to show the little blue creatures the great discovery.
The 16 Smurfs were very excited.
/Snappy\: "Smurf-a-roo! I can't wait to smurf that great discovery!"
/Sassette\: "Me too!"
/Brainy\: "I wonder what it is?"
/Clumsy\: "Uh, is it much farther, Thomas?"
/Thomas\: "Not that far, we're almost there. And would you Smurfs please close your eyes?"
/Jokey\: "Why?"
/Thomas\: "Because, you'll spoil the surprise."
/Jokey\: "Oh, alright."
/Lazy\: "Oh, I'll close my eyes alright."
So the 16 Smurfs closed their eyes. But after Lazy closed his eyes, he fell asleep.
/Lazy\: "/Snoring\"
Thomas was now closer to the great discovery.
/Thomas\: "Keep your eyes closed, and don't peek."
Jokey sneakily opened one of his eyes.
/Jokey\: "/Giggling\"
/Thomas\: "I said don't peek, Jokey!"
/Papa\: "Jokey, do as Thomas smurfed or you'll be smurfed!"
/Jokey\: "Alright already!"
Jokey went back to closing one of his eyes.
/Thomas\: "Nearly there."
The 16 Smurfs waited and waited.
At long last, Thomas, along with the 16 Smurfs, arrived at the great discovery.
/Thomas\: "We're here! You all can open your eyes now!"
As the 16 Smurfs opened their eyes, they were all awestruck. And indeed the great discovery was the lost-but-now-found town of Great Waterton.
/The 16 Smurfs\: "/Oohing and aahing\"
/Brainy\: "It's a new town."
/Handy\: "And station."
/Hefty\: "Are you smurfing this, Lazy? Lazy?"
/Lazy\: "/Snoring\"
/Hefty\: "Lazy! Wake up! Thomas smurfed us to the great discovery!"
Hefty shake Lazy.
/Hefty\: "LA-ZY!"
/Lazy\: "/SNORT\ Huh? What? Oh, we're here already?"
/Hefty\: "Yes!"
Lazy looked all around.
/Lazy\: "Whoa, it's a new town."
/Brainy\: "I smurfed that already, Lazy."
/Lazy\: "Oh, sorry."
/Vanity\: "So, what name is this town and station?"
/Thomas\: "Look at the sign right next to you."
The 16 Smurfs looked at the name on the sign.
/Brainy\: "This station and town is called, Great Waterton."
/Smurfette\: "Ooh, such a smurfy name for a station and town."
/Greedy\: "But why is it called Great Waterton?"
/Thomas\: "Well, Great Waterton got it's name from the fact that it served a water works, which supplied water for all the other towns on Sodor. And actually, this town's not new. it's old."
/Grandpa\: "Smurf-a-ruskie! Please, tell us it's history, Thomas."
/Thomas\: "Alright. You see, when the very first steam engines came to Sodor, it was the island's main town and rail hub. It was served by a tramline called, the Sodor Tramway, which delivered the coal for the water works until the tramline was closed. The water works then closed down and many people moved away from this town. The town became lost until one of us discovered it while finding another route to the Wharf. After that, the Fat Controller decided to have the town restored, with all of us both rail and non-rail contraptions involved in the project. And now, Great Waterton is beautiful again, as it once was."
/The 16 Smurf\: "Oooh."
/Papa\: "Amazing, simply amazing."
/Handy\: "And one thing, what's the water works?"
/Thomas\: "The water works consists of some large buildings which housed the steam pumping engines, as well as the standpipe tower which dwarfs all the buildings. Inside the water works, there have been two steam pumping engines with a large stationary boiler to provide steam pressure. And the standpipe tower has a huge iron pipe inside its structure; its purpose is to allow the steam pumping engines to pump the water up the standpipe and then, by gravity, the pressure inside the standpipe moves the water along the water mains towards all the other towns. Once the water works closed, the standpipe tower fell into disrepair, and it was a huge undertaking to restore the standpipe. Now the standpipe tower looks as good as new."
/Handy\: "Wow, fascinating."
/Hefty\: "It smurftainly is."
/Smurfette\: "Thanks for explaining us, Thomas."
Thomas just had to smile.
/Clumsy\: "Uh so, who discovered Great Waterton?"
/Thomas\: "Well, take a guess."
/Jokey\: "Is it Percy?"
/Thomas\: "No."
/Smurfette\: "Is it Emily?"
/Thomas\: "No."
/Handy\: "Is it Edward?"
/Thomas\: "No."
/Grouchy\: "Is it James?"
/Thomas\: "I knew you might puff that, Grouchy. But, it's also a no."
/Grouchy\: "Unnh, I HATE that it's not James who discovered Great Waterton!"
The 16 Smurfs all thought hard. But then, they all give up.
/Vanity\: "Ok Thomas, we're smurfed. Who discovered Great Waterton?"
/Thomas\: "Me."
/Vanity\: "You?"
/Brainy\: "I should've known that."
/Snappy\: "Boy Thomas, you and the other Engines must've worked hard to resmurf Great Waterton."
/Sassette\: "Yeah."
/Thomas\: "Oh, we did work hard you two. And we are really useful Engines for doing that project."
/Papa\: "And we think that you're really useful and smurfy Engines for smurfing that hard work, Thomas. Smurfy well done."
Thomas felt proud of himself.
/Brainy\: "Now I really need to smurf the other Smurfs to resmurf all the books about Sodor to me."
/Thomas\: "/Giggling\"
Just then, Thomas remembered something.
/Thomas\: "Oh, Grouchy, Vanity, this is where you two get off here and wait for James."
/Grouchy\: "Oh, thanks for resmurfing me and Vanity, Thomas."
/Vanity\: "Yes, thanks, Thomas."
/Thomas\: "You're welcome."
Grouchy and Vanity both jumped off of Thomas, and they landed on the station platform.
/Thomas\: "And while I puff to my job, I'll drop off you Smurfs to the other Engines as well."
/The 11 Smurfs minus Papa, Grandpa, and Wild\: "Smurfy, thank you, Thomas."
/Wild\: "Smoo-wah!"
/Thomas\: "And Papa, Grandpa, I'll drop both of you off at Knapford Station so you two can have a chat with the Fat Controller."
/Papa\: "That's very smurfy of you, Thomas. I've always wanted to have a chat with Sir Topham."
/Grandpa\: "So do I. But, will he be there?"
/Thomas\: "He'll be there, he has an office over there."\
/Grandpa\: "Oh, Ok."
/Thomas\: "Alright then. "Smurf" you later, Grouchy. "Smurf" you later, Vanity."
/Grouchy & Vanity\: "Smurf you later, Thomas."
And with two toots, "/PEEP! PEEP!\" Thomas puffed away, along with the 14 Smurfs.
Grouchy and Vanity watched as the #1 engine and their fellow Smurfs went completely out of sight.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
While chuffing off to his branch line, Thomas had dropped off the 12 Smurfs to one of the Steam Team.
Handy went with Edward.
Painter and Wild went with Henry.
Hefty went with Gordon.
Clumsy and Jokey went with Percy.
Greedy and Lazy went with Toby.
Sassette and Smurfette went with Emily.
And Brainy and Snappy stayed with Thomas.
And lastly, Thomas drop off Papa and Grandpa at Knapford Station to join the Fat Controller to have a nice long chat and also to have tea and biscuits.
And after that, the little blue tank engine, along with Brainy and Snappy, chuffed off to his job on running his branch line.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Back at Great Waterton, Grouchy and Vanity were waiting patiently for James. They waited, and waited, and waited, and waited. But there was no sign of James. The two Smurfs began to lose hope.
/Grouchy\: "Come on, James. Where are you?"
/Vanity\: "Don't worry, Grouchy. James will come soon. And besides, you two smurf that promise back at the sheds."
/Grouchy\: "I know. But, if James doesn't smurf up, I would hate him again!"
/Vanity\: "Please don't do that! You two are very smurfy friends."
/Grouchy\: "/SIGH\ You're right, Vanity. But you know that I hate waiting."
/Vanity\: "I know, Grouchy. I know. But, how can we smurf if James is coming?"
/Grouchy\: "Maybe by smurfing the sound of his whistle. I know what it sounds like."
/Vanity\: "Well I don't, I forgot what James' whistle sounds like."
/Grouchy\: "Don't worry, we'll listen very carefully. Now, let's use our ears."
So the two Smurfs began to use their ears for listening the sound of James' whistle.
Just then, Grouchy and Vanity heard two toots. "/PEE-OOO-EEP! PEE=OOO-EEP!\" But that was a two-tone whistle.
/Vanity\: "Is that James?"
/Grouchy\: "No, James doesn't have a whistle like that."
/Vanity\: "Then who is it?"
The two Smurfs could see that it was Whiff who tooted that two-tone whistle.
/Grouchy\: "It's Whiff."
/Vanity\: "Oh bother and smurfs."
/Grouchy\: "Uh-oh, smurf your nose, he's smurfing a train full of rubbish!"
/Vanity\: "Oh, yuck!"
Grouchy and Vanity covered their noses. And they kept them covered until they saw Whiff and his train went completely out of sight.
/Vanity\: "Phew! Finally he's gone."
/Grouchy\: "I smurfed it once before two years ago and I'll smurf it again, I HATE the smell of rubbish!"
/Vanity\: "You smurf it!"
So the two Smurfs went on listening for the sound of James' whistle.
But then, Grouchy and Vanity heard another two toots. "/PEEP! PEEP!\"
/Vanity\: "Is it James?"
/Grouchy\: "No, that's not his whistle."
/Vanity\: "/MOAN\ Who is it?"
The two Smurfs could see that it was only Arthur and the sound of his whistle.
/Grouchy\: "It's Arthur."
/Vanity\: "Oh double bother and smurfs."
/Grouchy\: "Oh no, smurf your nose again, he's smurfing a train full of fish!"
/Vanity\: "Ewww!"
Grouchy and Vanity covered their noses again. And they kept them covered until they saw Arthur and his train disappeared in the distance.
/Vanity\: "Hah! He's gone at last."
/Grouchy\: "Once again, I smurfed it once before two years ago and I'll smurf it again, I HATE the smell of fish!"
/Vanity\: "You can smurf that again!"
And again, the two Smurfs went on listening for the sound of James' whistle.
Suddenly, Grouchy and Vanity heard another two toots. "/PEEP! PEEP!\"
/Vanity\: "That must be James."
/Grouchy\: "No, that's not his whistle either."
/Vanity\: "Eesh, who is it this time?"
The two Smurfs could see that it was only Harvey and the sound of his whistle.
/Grouchy\: "It's Harvey."
/Vanity\: "Oh triple bother and smurfs."
/Grouchy\: "And look, he's smurfing Rocky."
/Vanity\: "I can see that."
Grouchy and Vanity watched as Harvey, with Rocky behind him, chuffed away.
/Grouchy and Vanity\: "/BIG SIGH\"
/Vanity\: "Well, they're gone too."
/Grouchy\: "Yeah. But there's still no sign of James."
/Vanity\: "Now I'm getting worried. What if James smurf into an accident?"
/Grouchy\: "Ohh, I hate to imagine if James smurf into an accident."
/Vanity\: "Me too. And all this worrying will ruin my smurfy face."
So once again, the two Smurfs continued on waiting and listening for the sound of James' whistle.
Then suddenly, the former bad-tempered Smurf and the handsome Smurf's waiting and worrying were finally over when they heard two toots.
/James\: "/PEEP! PEEP!\"
/Grouchy\: "Hey, that's James!"
/Vanity\: "Really? Is that the sound of his whistle?"
/Grouchy\: "Yes!"
/James\: "/PEEP! PEEP!\"
/Vanity\: "Oh happy day! Now I'll remember that whistle for sure!"
/Grouchy\: "You better!"
Grouchy looked to his right.
/Grouchy\: "Look, here he comes!"
Vanity also looked to his right.
/Vanity\: "Hooray!"
The two Smurfs could see that James was chuffing closer and closer towards the station. They both jumped up and down, and they also waved and shouted to the #5 engine.
/Grouchy\: "JAMES! JAMES!"
/Vanity\: "OVER HERE, JAMES! OVER HERE!"
Grouchy and Vanity both whistled to James.
/Grouchy and Vanity\: "/Whistling\"
James looked in the distance. And he could see the two Smurfs jumping and waving to him.
/James\: "Oh, there they are!"
James let out three toots.
/James\: "/PEEP! PEEP! PEEP!\"
/Grouchy\: "Yes, he smurfed us!"
/Vanity\: "Finally!"
Grouchy and Vanity watched as James entered the station. And he stopped right beside the platform where the two Smurfs were standing.
/Grouchy\: "James, thank smurfness you're finally here!"
/Vanity\: "Yeah, what smurfed you so long?"
/James\: "I'm sorry, I've been stopping on a lot of red signals."
/Vanity\: "Ohhh."
/Grouchy\: "I HATE those red signals!"
/James\: "I hate them too, but we Engines always had to obey the rules of the rails."
And Grouchy had to agree, even Vanity.
Then the two Smurfs could see that James was pulling two flat-bed trucks of engine parts.
/Grouchy\: "What are you smurfing, James?"
/Vanity\: "Yeah, and what are they for?"
/James\: "These are engine parts, and they are for the water works."
/Vanity\: "Oh. Thomas smurfed us about the water works."
/Grouchy\: "Yeah, and it was smurfy."
/James\: "Well I'm glad that you Smurfs learned something today."
Both Grouchy and Vanity nodded up and down.
/James\: "Alright then, come aboard you two, I'm about to drop off this train to the yard."
/Vanity\: "Smurfy."
/Grouchy\: "But is the yard far away?"
/James\: "Not really, it's just in the left of the town."
/Grouchy\: "Oh, ok."
/Vanity\: "Let's smurf."
So the two Smurfs came aboard James
And with a wheesh of steam, the mid-size red tender engine, along with Grouchy and Vanity, chuffed off towards the yard.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When James got to the yard, he uncoupled and drop off his train. The yard in Great Waterton was small, and it can't store that many trucks.
Grouchy and Vanity looked all around the yard.
/Grouchy\: "This yard is too small."
/Vanity\: "And not that smurfy."
/James\: "I know, but some of us get used to it."
/Grouchy\: "Hmph. So, Sir Topham smurfed that you're smurfing your mixed-traffic job, is that right?"
/James\: "Yes, and do you both remember what mixed-traffic means?"
/Vanity\: "We sure do, it means that an Engine can smurf coaches or trucks from time to time."
/James\: "Well done, Vanity."
/Grouchy\: "Well, what's your next job?"
/James\: "My next job is to pull some empty open-topped trucks to the quarry."
/Grouchy\: "What's a quarry?"
/James\: "I'll explain it when we get there."
/Vanity\: "So, where are the trucks?"
/James\: "They're right there."
Grouchy and Vanity looked to their left.
/Vanity\: "Those trucks?"
/James\: "Yes."
/Vanity\: "Oh."
/Grouchy\: "Ok then, let's smurf them and get this smurf on the smurf."
/James\: "You puff it, Grouchy."
And James, with Grouchy and Vanity on board, chuffed off to the nearest points.
After switching tracks, James, along with Grouchy and Vanity, was chuffing towards his train.
As the #5 engine chuffed right next to his train, the trucks began to giggle.
/The Troublesome Trucks\: "/Giggling\"
/Vanity\: "Oooh, those trucks looked pretty umsmurfy."
/Grouchy\: "And I don't trust them one smurf."
/James\: "Me too."
But, James was in luck.
At the front of the mid-size red tender engine's train, was a very big open-topped truck. It was Hector. And he's the only truck that is so nice and can be trusted.
But Grouchy and Vanity didn't know that when they saw him, and they were surprised. And they were also scared and worried.
/Vanity\: "Smurf my Smurfs, smurf at that big truck!"
/Grouchy\: "Ohh James, you're gonna go through a lot of trouble with that!"
But James wasn't scared or worried.
/James\: "Don't worry, you two. This big truck is very nice. Grouchy, Vanity, this is Hector. Hector, these are my friends, and they're Smurfs."
/Hector\: "Hello, so nice to meet you. Thomas told me all about you."
The two Smurfs were still scared.
/Grouchy\: "H-h-hello."
/Vanity\: "N-n-nice to s-s-smurf you too."
/Hector\: "Oh come on, don't be scared. I am really nice."
Suddenly, Grouchy and Vanity didn't feel scared anymore. But they were stern.
/Grouchy\: "Well, if you're nice, how we'll know that we should trust you?"
/Vanity\: "Yeah."
/Hector\: "Oh, you can certainly trust me."
But the two Smurfs weren't so sure.
/Grouchy\: "James, do you trust Hector?"
/James\: "Yes I do. Hector once helped me get my train through the snow and get all the way to Great Waterton."
/Hector\: "And I was glad to help James."
And after hearing that, Grouchy and Vanity made their decision.
/Grouchy\: "Oh, alright."
/Vanity\: "We'll trust you, Hector."
James and Hector were very pleased.
Just then, the trucks were still giggling.
/The Troublesome Trucks\: "/Giggling\"
James, Grouchy, and Vanity were annoyed.
/James\: "Hector, would you please make these trucks stop giggling?"
/Grouchy and Vanity\: "Yes, please."
/Hector\: "I'd be happy to."
Hector turned to the trucks.
/The Troublesome Trucks\: "/Giggling\"
/Hector\: "SILENCE!"
That made the trucks jumped and they stopped giggling.
But that loud yell made James, Grouchy, and Vanity jumped also.
/Grouchy\: "Whoa, that's some yell."
/Vanity\: "I'll smurf."
/James\: "Thank you, Hector."
Hector just smiled.
And in no time, James, along with Grouchy and Vanity, was coupled up to his train, and he puffed away.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
While puffing through the countryside, James, Grouchy, and Vanity were enjoying their time together. The #5 engine was just chuffing along the main line, while the two Smurfs just sit back and enjoy the ride, even though Vanity keeps on looking at his reflection in his hand mirror.
/Vanity\: "Mirror, mirror on my hand, who is the most smurfy Smurf on the island? Why, it's me, me, me."
/Grouchy\: "Oh, Vanity."
/James\: "/Giggling\"
The trucks clattering behind James were behaving very well, especially Hector. And the big hopper truck kept an eye on them along the way.
Grouchy and Vanity were very impressed with Hector, and they gain his trust.
And Hector felt proud of himself.
At last, after chuffing for one and a half hours, the three friends arrived at Sodor Slate Quarry.
The two Smurfs were amazed.
/Grouchy and Vanity\: "Whoooa."
/Grouchy\: "James, is this a quarry?"
/James\: "Yes Grouchy, this is a quarry."
/Vanity\: "Care to explain it now?"
/James\: "The quarry is a place, cavern, or pit where stone and slate is taken from the rock or ledge, or dug from the earth, for building or other purposes. And it's also known as a stone pit."
/Grouchy & Vanity\: "Ohhh."
Just then, the three friends heard two by two toots.
/Bill & Ben\: "/PEEP! PEEP!\ /PEEP! PEEP!\"
It was the Twins, Bill and Ben. They've came to pick up the trucks that James brought in.
/James\: "Look, you two! The Smurfs came back!"
/Grouchy and Vanity\: "Hello, Bill! Hello, Ben!"
The Twins were surprised.
/Bill and Ben\: "Oh, welcome back!"
/Bill\: "And look, James. Me and Ben got our wheels painted to match our yellow coats."
James looked at the Twins' wheels. And they're indeed had been painted yellow.
/James\: "Oh, well, good for you both."
/Grouchy\: "And I'm glad that you two don't have black wheels anymore."
/Ben\: "We're glad too. We don't like black wheels either."
James, Grouchy, and Vanity just grin.
/Bill\: "Anyway, we're here to pick up…"
/Ben\: "…the trucks that you brought in."
/James\: "Yes, here you go. Goodbye, Hector."
/Grouchy & Vanity\: "Bye, Hector."
/Hector\: "Goodbye, James. Goodbye, Smurfs."
James uncoupled the train, and he, along with the two Smurfs, chuffed away.
/Vanity\: "Now what's your next mixed-traffic job, James?"
/James\: "My next mixed-traffic job is to pull a train of slate trucks to the Brendam Docks."
/Grouchy\: "Is Brendam Docks a town?"
/James\: "Actually, it's a harbor."
/Grouchy\: "What's a harbor?"
/James\: "A harbor is a sheltered port where ships can take on or discharge passengers and goods and stuff. And it's also known as a seaport."
/Grouchy\: "Oh."
/Vanity\: "So where's the train of slate trucks?"
/James\: "It's at the other end of the quarry."
/Vanity\: "Oh, ok."
/Grouchy\: "Let's smurf it and smurf off to Brendam Docks."
/James\: "You puff it, Grouchy."
And James, along with Grouchy and Vanity, kept on chuffing to pick up his train.
When the mid-size red tender engine got to the other end of the quarry, he was coupled up to the train, and he, along with the two Smurfs, puffed off to Brendam Docks.
For the second time, the three friends were enjoying their time together wonderfully.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And in no time, James, Grouchy, and Vanity arrived at Brendam Docks. The journey to the harbor only lasted for a half hour.
The two Smurfs are awestruck.
The harbor was big, and there were a lot of ships from faraway places. And there were some boats also.
/Grouchy\: "So this is Brendam Docks."
/Vanity\: "And this is what a harbor looks like."
/James\: "You puff it, you two."
/Grouchy\: "Wow, smurf at those ships."
/Vanity\: "And they're different from the ones that we smurf back at home, in the medieval times that is."
/James\: "Well, the ships from your time period, had evolved into these new generation of ships. And those ships are built with engines."
/Grouchy & Vanity\: "Ooh."
Just then, the three friends heard a voice.
/Cranky\: "Oh, look who's here."
/Grouchy\: "Who smurfed that?"
/James\: "Oh, it's only Cranky."
/Grouchy\: "Well, where is he?"
/James\: "He's up there."
The two Smurfs looked up, and there at the top was Cranky.
/Grouchy\: "So that's Cranky."
/Vanity\: "Whoa, he's tall."
/Grouchy\: "And he's the one that smurfed you "Grouchy James", right?"
/James\: "Yes, that's him."
/Vanity\: "And what kind of contraption is he?"
/James\: "He's a crane, Vanity."
/Vanity\: "Oh."
/Grouchy\: "And he smurfed me that too."
/James\: "That I did. /Shouting\ Hello, Cranky!"
/Cranky\: "/MOAN\ And it's too bad that you're not grouchy today."
/James\: "Why would I?"
/Cranky\: "So I can call you "Grouchy James" again."
/James\: "Well not today. I'm feeling happy!"
/Cranky\: "That I can see. So what had you brought in this time?"
/James\: "Oh, some trucks of slate."
/Cranky\: "Oh wonderful, more heavy loads for me to haul. And I'll be aching my arm off for doing this."
/James\: "Well, you're the only crane in this part of the harbor that can haul loads more faster and quicker. And you know that the Fat Controller doesn't want any confusion and delay."
/Cranky\: "Whatever."
/Grouchy\: "Eesh, what a grouch."
/Vanity\: "Yeah."
/James\: "Maybe he should be called "Grouchy Cranky". /Chuckling\"
/Grouchy\: "HA-HA-HA! Smurfy one, James!"
/Vanity\: "I'll smurf!"
And the three friends laughed.
/James, Grouchy, & Vanity\: "/Laughing\"
/Cranky\: "Stop laughing! And who are you talking to?"
/James\: "Oh nothing. You must be hearing things."
/Cranky\: "But I heard someone laughing with you. Who is it?"
/James\: "Oh my, look at the time! I have another train to pull! Goodbye, Cranky!"
And James uncoupled the train, and he puffed quickly away along with Grouchy and Vanity.
/Cranky\: "WAIT! STOP!"
But James ignored him and he went completely out of sight.
Cranky was cross.
/Cranky\: "That James has someone with him, and I'm going to find out. Well, someday."
And the cranky crane went on to start his duty.
After getting away from Cranky, James, along with Grouchy and Vanity, stopped at a dock.
/James\: "Bust my buffers, that was close."
/Vanity\: "I wonder why Cranky didn't notice me and Grouchy?"
/Grouchy\: "Maybe we're too tiny for him to smurf."
/James\: "You're right, Grouchy. From up there, Cranky can hardly see you both on me."
/Vanity\: "Well thank smurfness we're away from that grouch. I don't like him at all."
/Grouchy\: "Me too."
/James\: "Well, we Engines had to get used to Cranky. He's an important part of the harbor anyway."
And the two Smurfs had to agree.
/Grouchy\: "Now, what's your next job?"
/James\: "My next job is the one that I love, pulling a fast special."
/Vanity\: "Ooh, smurfy."
/Grouchy\: "And I LOVE that you love that job."
/Vanity\: "But where are you going to smurf your train?"
/James\: "I'm going to pull it to Knapford Station."
/Vanity\: "Oh, ok."
/Grouchy\: "Now, let's smurf!"
/James\: "Alright, here we go!"
And James, along with Grouchy and Vanity, set off to collect his train.
After James collected his train, he, along with the two Smurfs, was chuffing along Edward's branch line. And the three friends were still enjoying their time together.
Vanity was, as usual, looking at his hand mirror.
/Vanity\: "Ooh, I'll never get tired of this. /SMOOCH\"
James was disgusted.
/James\: "Please don't do that, Vanity. It's disgusting."
/Grouchy\: "I smurf that disgusting too."
/Vanity\: "It's not disgusting! I had been smurfing that for my all life! So get used to it!"
/James\: "/SIGH\ If you puff so. Vanity."
/Grouchy\: "/SIGH\ Same here."
Vanity was very pleased and he went on looking at himself.
Just then, the three friends could see an Engines coming by. It was Edward. And with him was Handy.
James, Grouchy, and Vanity whistled and shouted to them.
/James\: "/PEEP! PEEP!\ /Shouting\ Hello!"
/Grouchy & Vanity\: "/Shouting\ Hello!"
/Edward\: "/PEEP! PEEP!\ /Shouting\ Hello!"
/Handy\: "/Shouting\ Hello!"
The three Smurfs also waved at each other.
And as the two Engines past by each other, James, Grouchy, and Vanity continued on their journey.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It had been one and a half hours, but at long last, the three friends arrived at Knapford Station.
/Vanity\: "Aah, smurfy ol' Knapford Station."
/Grouchy\: "It hasn't smurfed a bit. But I would hate if something unsmurfy happen to it."
/James\: "Don't worry, Grouchy. Nothing "unsmurfy" will happen to Knapford Station. And it is after all, the biggest station on the island."
Grouchy smiled and he had to agree, even Vanity.
As James entered the station, he stopped at the back of it. And then, he uncoupled his train.
/Grouchy\: "What's your next job now, James?"
/James\: "My next job is the one that I also love, pulling a passenger train."
/Grouchy\: "And I also LOVE that you love that job."
/Vanity\: "Yeah, Let's get smurfin'."
/James\: "Whoa, hold your "smurfs", Vanity. I had to pick up some coaches first."
/Vanity\: "So where are the coaches then?"
/James\: "They're at Knapford Yards."
/Grouchy\: "Well come on then, let's smurf them and get smurfin' so you and your friends can come with us to our village in our time period."
/James\: "I know. And I hope I'd made some good progress."
And James, along with Grouchy and Vanity, puffed off to fetch his train.
When James got to Knapford Yards, he was coupled up to his train, and he puffed off to Knapford Station.
And when the #5 engine arrived at the station, there were a lot of passengers waiting on the platform. The passengers were very keen to get on board James' train. But even though, James was pulling only three coaches.
Grouchy and Vanity looked back and they were amazed. They had never seen such so many people.
/Vanity\: "Smurfen my smurf, look at all those people."
/Grouchy\: "Yeah, there are sure a lot of them."
/James\: "There's a lot indeed, and taking passengers is the most important job of all. Well, pulling fast specials is also the most important job too."
/Grouchy & Vanity\: "Whoa."
/Grouchy\: "So, what's your destination for this job?"
/James\: "My destination for this job is chuffing all the way to Vicarstown."
/Vanity\: "And where is Vicarstown?"
/James\: "It's at the eastern part of the island. And this journey is not like the other ones that I did today, it's going to be a very long one."
/Vanity\: "How long?"
/James\: "Three and a half hours."
/Grouchy\: "Three and a half hours? But that'll take all day! But, I really LOVE smurfing on longer journeys on Sodor."
/James\: "What about the journeys at your time period, Grouchy?"
/Grouchy\: "Nah, I HATE those journeys. And they're nothing compared to the ones in this time period."
/James\: "/Chuckling\ Whatever you puff, Grouchy. Whatever you puff."
And Grouchy just had to smile.
Just then, James looked at the clock.
/James\: "Oh dear, it's nearly time for me to depart."
/Vanity\: "But there's some people smurfing your train."
/Grouchy\: "Are you gonna smurf something, James."
/James\: "Why yes, there is something that I can do, and it's this."
James turned to his passengers.
/James\: "Final boarding call! All aboard! And mind the gap between the platform and the train!"
When the passengers heard James' announcement, they all scrabbled into his train. And at last, the last passenger boarded the train.
Grouchy and Vanity were amazed and they were very impressed with James.
/Vanity\: "Wow, now that did the smurf."
/Grouchy\: "Yeah, smurfy one, James."'
/James\: "Thank you, Grouchy. And I really out done myself."
Just then, the guard blew his whistle. "/TWEET!\"
And James began to depart.
/James\: "/PEEP! PEEP!\ Here we go! On to Vicarstown we go!"
/Vanity\: "Smurfy!"
/Grouchy\: "Are you smurfing an express train, James?"
/James\: "No, I'm pulling a local train."
/Vanity\: "What does local mean anyway?"
/James\: "It means that I had to stop at every station along the way to my final destination."
/Grouchy & Vanity\: "Oh."
/Grouchy\: "Well, just as long that we are smurfing our time together."
/James\: "We are, Grouchy. We are. And I'm having the most splendid day spending my time with you."
/Vanity\: "Hey, don't smurfget me!"
/James\: "Yes, and even you, Vanity."
/Vanity\: "Thank you, James."
James smiled his biggest smile. And he, along with his two special Smurf friends, chuffed off to do his job.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Throughout the day, James had been very busy. He worked his hardest so he can earn his reward of going to the medieval times with the Smurfs. And Grouchy and Vanity were very impressed with James. The two Smurfs could see that the mid-size red tender engine was working his hardest. And also, they were having a wonderful time being together.
But even though, James was not the only one who was working hard. The rest of the Steam Team had also been very busy. And they were also working very hard throughout the day so they can also earn their reward of going to the medieval times with the Smurfs. And some of the Smurfs were also very impressed with the rest of the Steam Team for working their hardest. And they were also having a wonderful time being together.
At Knapford Station in his office, The Fat Controller was having a wonderful time chatting with Papa and Grandpa. They've been chatting endlessly all day, talking about what it was like to be in charge of a railway and being a leader of a big group of Smurfs. And Grandpa also chat to the Fat Controller on being second in command for the group of Smurfs. And the railway controller and the leader Smurf also chat about that the Engines were really useful and the Smurfs were also really useful. And Papa, Grandpa, and the Fat Controller were also feeling very proud of having some hardworking Engines and hardworking Smurfs. And the three friends were also enjoying having tea and biscuits together.
And while he was chatting with Papa and Grandpa, the Fat Controller had heard that the Steam Team had been making good progress and had done their jobs, especially James. He was very delighted, and said to Papa and Grandpa that the eight Engines had earn their reward of going to the medieval times. And the two old Smurfs were also very delighted to hear that.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Evening come, and after they finished chatting, The Fat Controller closed his office and headed towards his little blue car. Papa and Grandpa walked along side with him. And after they got in the car. The Fat Controller, along with Papa and Grandpa, drove off to Tidmouth Sheds to see the Steam Team and the 14 Smurfs.
At Tidmouth Sheds, the Steam Team and the 14 Smurfs had returned home. The eight Engines were very tired and exhausted, but they sure had a wonderful time along with the 14 Smurfs.
/Thomas\: "Fizzling fireboxes, what a day."
/Percy\: "You can puff that again. I'm all puffed out."
/Emily\: "My wheels are aching me."
/Edward\: "So are my gears."
/James\: "And my axles."
/Snappy\: "But you Engines sure smurfed hard today."
/Sassette\: "And we're all very impressed."
/Painter\: "And zome of uz had the most smurfy day zpending zome time together."
/Handy\: "I sure had the most smurfiest time with Edward."
/Hefty\: "Me and Gordon had the smurfiest time too."
/Vanity\: "Well me and Grouchy had the most biggest and smurfiest time with James."
/Grouchy\: "Yeah."
/Smurfette\: "And me, Sassette, and Emily sure had a very smurfy time together."
/Brainy\: "Well I smurf that we all had a smurfy day spending some time with our Engine friends."
/Thomas\: "And we Engines sure had the most splendid day spending some time with you Smurfs."
/Henry\: "I peep to that."
/Gordon\: "Me too."
/Toby\: "Me three."
/Clumsy\: "Now let's all hope that Sir Topham will let you Engines smurf with us to our village in our time period."
/Thomas\: "We hope so too, Clumsy. But it depends on how we Engines done our jobs first."
/James\: "Oh, I hope the Fat Controller will puff, "You Engines can go with the Smurfs to their village in their time period"."
/Grouchy\: "I hope so too, James."
/Jokey\: "Ohh, I'm smurfing the unsmurfy shivers, and it's not funny at all."
/Lazy\: "And I can hardly smurf myself awake for all this waiting."
/Percy\: "Well, if you puff back to sleep, I can always use my super loud whistle."
/Jokey\: "And that will be the funniest thing to smurf. /Giggling\"
/Lazy\: "Please, no! Anything but that!"
/Greedy\: "Then smurf your eyes open."
/Lazy\: "I am! I am!"
The Steam Team and the 13 Smurfs couldn't help but giggle.
/The Steam Team\: "/Giggling\"
/The 13 Smurfs minus Lazy\: "/Giggling\"
/Lazy\: "Humph! Very funny indeed."
Just then, Wild saw something and shouted.
/Wild\: "Smoo-wah!"
/Henry\: "What is it, Wild? You see something?"
/Wild\: "Uh-huh! Uh-huh!"
/Henry\: "Then show us what it is."
Wild pointed to the distance.
The eight Engines and the 13 Smurfs(Except Wild) all looked on what Wild was pointing at. And they all could see a little blue car coming towards the sheds. "/Sound of a car approaching\"
/Thomas\: "Oh, here comes the Fat Controller!"
/Brainy\: "And Papa Smurf and Grandpa Smurf too!"
The car came to a complete stop. And the Fat Controller, Papa, and Grandpa exit out of the car.
The two old Smurfs then joined up with the 14 Smurfs.
/The Fat Controller\: "Good evening."
/The Steam Team\: "Good evening, Sir."
/Thomas\: "Did you had a splendid time with Papa Smurf and Grandpa Smurf, Sir?"
/The Fat Controller\: "Oh, yes. I had a wonderful time with Papa Smurf and Grandpa Smurf."
/Papa\: "We smurfed a lot today."
/Grandpa\: "And we had tea and biscuits too."
/Thomas\: "Well, we're glad to hear that."
/James\: "So tell us, Sir. How did we do today?"
/The Fat Controller\: "Why, you all done a most splendid job of all, and showed me how you worked your hardest. And to add to that, you all are really useful Engines."
/The Steam Team\: "Oh, thank you, Sir."
/James\: "Does this mean that we can go with the Smurfs to their village at their time period?"
/The Fat Controller\: "Yes, James. You all can go with the Smurfs to their village at their time period."
/The Steam Team\: "/Whistling\ HOORAY!"
/The 14 Smurfs minus Papa and Grandpa\: "YAY!"
/Thomas\: "How long you want us to be away, Sir?"
/The Fat Controller\: "I want you all to be back in three weeks."
/James\: "We accept that."
/The Fat Controller\: "Good. You all will leave first thing tomorrow, and Mr. Conductor will also show up to help you all time-travel. And I'll be getting some Engines to do your work while the eight of you are away."
/Thomas\: "Alright, Sir."
/James\: "Thank you, Sir."
/The Fat Controller\: "And Toby, you'll be spending the night here in Tidmouth Sheds so you can go with your friends."
/Toby\: "Oh thank you, Sir."
/The Fat Controller\: Alright then, that'll be all for today. Have a splendid time in the medieval times, and I'll see you all in three weeks. Cheerio."
/The Steam Team\: "Cheerio, Sir."
/The 15 Smurfs minus Wild\: "Smurfio, Sir Topham."
The Steam Team and the 16 Smurfs watched as the Fat Controller got into his little blue car, and he drove away. "/Sound of a car leaving\"
/Thomas\: "Alright then, we all should get some sleep if we want to wake up early tomorrow."
/Papa\: "And I agree with Thomas."
/Percy\: "But there's still some light in the sky."
/Grandpa\: "No matter, Percy. We can go to sleep while the sun is still setting."
/Lazy\: "And I can do that right now."
Lazy took out his sleeping equipment from his backpack, and he went fast asleep.
/Lazy\: "/Snoring\"
/Thomas\: "/Giggling\ Lazy really loves to go to sleep so quickly."
/Brainy\: "Yeah, he really does."
/Papa\: "Oh well. Alright my little Smurfs, it's time to get some sleep."
/The 12 Smurfs minus Papa, Grandpa, Lazy, and Wild\: "Yes, Papa Smurf."
The 12 Smurfs, Papa, and Grandpa each took out their sleeping equipment from their backpacks, and they all tucked themselves in.
/The 15 Smurfs minus Wild\: "Good night, Engines. We'll smurf you all in the morning."
/The Steam Team\: "Good night, Smurfs. We'll see you all in the morning too."
One by one, The eight Engines and the 16 Smurfs each closed their eyes, and they all went happily to sleep.
When nighttime came, everything in the Island of Sodor went silent. And everybody did had a very busy day keeping the island a wonderful place to live in, or to visit.
And at Tidmouth Sheds, while the Steam Team and the 16 Smurfs were fast asleep, they were dreaming on what fun they were going to have when the eights Engines arrive at the village in the medieval times. And Grouchy and James can't wait to have some fun also. But even though, there will be some dangerous obstacles that the Steam Team will had to face, but no matter what the danger they will face, they will overcome it by working as a team with the Smurfs. And that will be an adventure the Steam Team will ever have in their whole lives.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Acela Smurf7): Isn't this exciting? The Steam Team can't wait to go to the village in the medieval times and to meet the rest of the Smurfs. And how will they get there you readers ask? We'll have to find out soon enough!
Fun facts:
1: The Orient Express is the name of a long-distance passenger train service in Europe that lasted from 1883 to 2009.
2: When James told Grouchy and Vanity that Hector once helped the #5 engine get his train through the snow and to Great Waterton, it was from the Season 12 episode: James Works It Out. (And you can see this episode on Youtube or on any other video websites)

Chapter 5: To The Medieval Times!
/Thomas & Friends Engine Roll Call\
/Song plays and starts\
/Chorus\:
THEY'RE TWO, THEY'RE FOUR, THEY'RE SIX, THEY'RE EIGHT
SHUNTING TRUCKS AND HAULING FREIGHT
RED AND GREEN AND BROWN AND BLUE
THEY'RE THE REALLY USEFUL CREW
ALL WITH DIFFERENT ROLES TO PLAY
ROUND TIDMOUTH SHEDS OR FAR AWAY
DOWN THE HILLS AND ROUND THE BENDS
THOMAS AND HIS FRIENDS
/Song stops\
For the second time, there's nothing much to say from the previous chapter. Thomas showed the 16 Smurfs the rest of the Sodor locomotive fleet and road vehicles, and the old town of Great Waterton. James, Grouchy, and Vanity had their time together. And the Steam Team had worked their hardest and they all earned their reward of going to the medieval times with the 16 Smurfs. And now, let's see how the Steam Team will get to the medieval times. Here we go!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Another new day had arrived on the Island of Sodor. And it's going to be another busy one also. The Engines on the Fat Controller's railway were up bright and early to get the island moving again. But even though, all Engines but eight of them were going to have another busy day.
At Tidmouth Sheds, it's an exciting day. It's the day that the Steam Team were going to the medieval times with the 16 Smurfs. They, along with the little blue gnomes, were up bright and early and couldn't wait to get going. But before they go, they all had to wait for Mr. Conductor to appear first.
/Thomas\: "Alright! Today is the day!"
/Edward\: "It's the day that we eight Engines are going time-traveling to the past!"
/Henry\: "My axles are tingling!"
/Gordon\: "My wheels are wobbling!"
/James\: "My boiler is bubbling with excitement!"
/Percy\: "What an adventure that we're going to have!"
/Toby\: "I can hardly wait!"
/Emily\: "Oh, this is going to be a fun one!"
/Papa\: "Boy, you Engines are sure all smurfed up to go!"
/Thomas\: "Oh we are, Papa Smurf! We are!"
/Grandpa\: "But you Engines all heard what Sir Topham smurfed yesterday, we had to wait for Mr. Conductor to appear so he can lead us to find a way to get back to our home village."
/Thomas\: "Yes, we know."
/Snappy\: "I hope Mr. C. doesn't smurf too long."
/Grouchy\: "And if he does, I'll go smurfy!"
/James\: "Don't worry you two, Mr. C. will appear soon."
/Emily\: "Well, he usually does appear much quicker."
/Smurfette\: "Yes, and I agree with Emily."
/Sassette\: "Me too."
/Brainy\: "Well, let smurf then."
So the Steam Team and the 16 Smurfs all waited and waited.
/Percy\: "Not long now, Smurfs."
/Clumsy\: "Yup, any smurf now."
/Handy\: "He should be appearing right about… now."
But Mr. Conductor didn't magically appeared.
/Hefty\: "Hmm, maybe… now."
But still Mr. Conductor didn't magically appeared.
/Painter\: "Or right… now."
But once again, Mr. Conductor didn't magically appeared.
/Thomas\: "Oh dear, I hope nothing bad happened to him."
/Toby\: "I think that he might be out of gold dust."
/James\: "Rubbish, Toby. We all know where he can get some more."
/Brainy\: "And where exactly does Mr. C. get his gold dust from?"
/Thomas\: "I puff you Smurfs later on that."
/Jokey\: "/Moaning\ Oh, alright."
So the Steam Team and the 16 Smurfs continued on waiting.
But then, James had an idea.
/James\: "I know what we can do while we wait for Mr. C!"
/The 15 Smurfs minus Wild & the Steam Team minus James\: "What?"
/James\: "This! /PEEP, PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP!\"
/The 15 Smurfs minus Wild\: "Ohhh!"
But the Steam Team(Except James) were surprised.
/Edward\: "Flatten my funnel James, what did you just do?"
/James\: "I whistled a Smurf tune."
/Henry\: "A Smurf tune? Whoa!"
/Gordon\: "Who taught you that?"
/James\: "Grouchy. And I've been doing that for the past two years."
/Grouchy\: "And I'm glad that I smurf you that tune, James."
/The Steam Team minus James\: "Whoooo!"
/Thomas\: "How does it go again?"
/Papa\: "It smurfs like this, Thomas. Smurf along, Smurfs."
/The 15 Smurfs minus Wild\: "/Singing\ LA, LA, LA-LA, LA, LA. LA, LA-LA, LA, LA. LA, LA, LA-LA, LA, LA. LA, LA-LA, LA, LA."
/Thomas\: "Oh, alright. Let me try now. /Whistling off-tune\ Oh, bother!"
/Papa\: "It's ok, Thomas. Smurf again. But this time, smurf it slowly."
/Thomas\: "Alright, Papa Smurf. Here I go. /Whistling slowly\ Oh, double bother!"
/Brainy\: "Well Thomas, as Papa Smurf would always smurf: "At first you don't succeed; smurf, smurf again"."
/Thomas\: "Yes Brainy, I know. /Whistling faster\ Oh, triple bother!"
/Papa\: "Don't give up, Thomas. Just smurf it a smurf at a time. Just remember the tune inside your funnel. And if you want, while listening to the tune, take a deep smurf in, and let it smurf."
/Thomas\: "/SIGH\ If you puff so, Papa Smurf."
Thomas took a deep breath.
/Thomas\: "/INHALE\"
And then, Thomas let out his whistle and played the Smurf tune.
/Thomas\: "/PEEP, PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP!\ Hooray, I did it!"
/Papa\: "And just like I smurfed, "just smurf it a smurf at a time". Smurfy work, Thomas."
/Thomas\: "Thank you, Papa Smurf."
/Edward\: "Well done, Thomas. Now let me have a go."
Edward took a deep breath.
/Edward\: "/INHALE\"
And then, Edward let out his whistle and played the Smurf tune also.
/Edward\: "/PEEP, PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP!\ Yes!"
/Handy\: "Smurftastic, Edward."
/Edward\: "Thank you, Handy."
/Henry\: "Now it's my turn. /INHALE\ /PEEP, PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP!\"
Next it was Gordon's turn.
/Gordon\: "/INHALE\ /POOP, POOP, POOP-POOP, POOP, POOP! POOP, POOP-POOP, POOP, POOP! POOP, POOP, POOP-POOP, POOP, POOP! POOP, POOP-POOP, POOP, POOP!\"
Then Percy.
/Percy\: "/INHALE\ /PEEP, PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP!\"
And then Emily.
/Emily\: "/INHALE\ /PEEP, PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP! PEEP, PEEP-PEEP, PEEP, PEEP!\"
And Toby played the Smurf tune by using his bell.
/Toby\: "/INHALE\ /DING. DING, DING-DING, DING, DING! DING, DING-DING. DING, DING! DING. DING, DING-DING, DING, DING! DING, DING-DING. DING, DING!"
/Hefty\: "Smurfbulous, Engines!"
/Smurfette\: "Now you all know how to smurf the Smurf tune!"
/Emily\: "Thank you, Smurfette. And thank you for teaching us, Papa Smurf."
/Papa\: "My smurfy pleasure, Emily."
/Grandpa\: "Now let's all smurf the Smurf tune together."
/James\: "Alright, then. A one, a two, a one, two, three!"
/The Steam Team & the 15 Smurfs minus Wild\: "/Whistling/ringing and singing the Smurf tune\ YES! /Laughing\"
/James\: "Now we're all very really musical Engines!"
/Vanity\: "You Engines sure are!"
/Grouchy\: "I smurf to that!"
The Steam Team smiled grandly and they felt very proud.
Suddenly, a golden sparkle began to appear near Toby.
/James\: "Look, here comes Mr. C.!"
/Snappy\: "It's about time!"
/Papa\: "Now Snappy, Mr. C. might have an explanation for his delay."
/Edward\: "Indeed he will."
At long last, Mr. Conductor magically appeared right near Toby.
/Mr. Conductor\: "Good morning, everybody."
/The Steam Team & the 15 Smurfs minus Wild\: "Good morning, Mr. C.."
/Wild\: "Smoo-wah!"
/Mr. Conductor\: "And sorry for the delay, I was talking to the Fat Controller about today."
/Thomas\: "Oh, alright."
/Brainy\: "At least we smurf something while we're waiting."
/Mr. Conductor\: "Oh, good. Now, are you Engines ready to go time-traveling?"
/Thomas\: "We're better than ready…"
/The Steam Team\: "We're pumping and steaming ready!"
/Grandpa\: "And we Smurfs are smurfing ready to go back home!"
/Mr. Conductor\: "Splendid! /TWEET!\"
Mr. Conductor magically teleported inside Thomas' cab.
/Mr. Conductor\: "Thomas, you'll lead the way."
/Thomas\: "Alright. But where to?"
/Mr. Conductor\: "You know, "the magical portal"."
/Thomas\: "What magical portal?"
/Mr. Conductor\: "Oh bother, I can't believe you forgot."
/Thomas\: "I'm sorry, Mr. Conductor. I don't remember. Please, tell me where should we go?"
/Mr. Conductor\: "Oh, alright. /Whispering\"
/Thomas\: "Oh, of course! And I'll remember that from now on."
/Papa\: "So Thomas, is there a way to go to the past?"
/Thomas\: "Yes, it's at the magical portal that Mr. C. just told me."
/Papa\: "Oh, ok. And I can't wait to smurf this magical portal."
/Mr. Conductor\: "Alright Thomas, lead the way."
/Thomas\: "Right. Follow me my friends, and you Smurfs just sit back and watch as I lead."
One by one, and in numerical order, the Steam Team puffed out of their sheds. And they all followed Thomas.
The 16 Smurfs were all on Thomas' boiler and tanks. They all want to see where the #1 engine was going to. And in no time, the Steam Team, with the 16 Smurfs aboard Thomas, were chuffing along the countryside on a branch line to the magical portal.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Along the branch line, there were a set of points. Thomas and the other seven Engines stopped.
The 16 Smurfs were puzzled.
/Greedy\: "Are we at the magical portal yet?"
/Mr. Conductor\: "Almost. I just need to switch the points first."
Mr. Conductor got off of Thomas, and he switched the points. Then he climbed back aboard the little blue tank engine.
The Steam Team then switched tracks. And as Emily got through the points, she and the rest of the Steam Team stopped.
/Mr. Conductor\: "I'll be right back; I need to switch the points back again."
/Papa\: "Ok Mr. C., take your time."
/Mr. Conductor\: "/TWEET!\"
Mr. Conductor magically teleported back to the points. When he got there, he switched the points back where it was before.
/Mr. Conductor\: "/TWEET!\"
And then Mr. Conductor magically teleported back inside Thomas' cab.
/Mr. Conductor\: "Alright, all set."
/Thomas\: "Great. Alright my friends, follow me."
And the Steam Team, with the 16 Smurfs aboard Thomas, set off once more.
At last, Thomas and his seven friends stopped at the end of the line in front of a set of buffers.
/Thomas\: "Here we are!"
But the 16 Smurfs were even more puzzled.
/Handy\: "This is it?"
/Hefty\: "Thomas, you smurfed us to a dead end."
/Painter\: "Oui."
/Thomas\: "Oh, it's not just a dead end. These set of buffers is the magical portal."
/Jokey\: "/Laughing\ You're smurfing our smurfs."
/Thomas\: "I'm serious, Jokey. The portal is right in front of us."
/Jokey\: "Yeah, right."
/Thomas\: "Well if you don't believe me, then I'll show you. Mr. Conductor, if you please?"
/Mr. Conductor\: "Of course, Thomas."
Mr. Conductor got off of Thomas, and he walked towards the set of buffers.
/Mr. Conductor\: "Watch this, Smurfs. Now you all see me…"
"/Sound of a European-style train whistle and railway crossing bells\"
/Mr. Conductor\: "/Echoing\ …now you all don't."
/The 16 Smurfs\: "/Gasping\ Whoa!"
"/Sound of a European-style train whistle and railway crossing bells\"
/Mr. Conductor\: "Ta-da!"
/Grandpa\: "Smurf-a-lulu!"
/Papa\: "Amazing, simply amazing!"
/Jokey\: "Gee, you weren't joking. I'm sorry, Thomas."
/Thomas\: "That's alright, Jokey."
/Clumsy\: "Uh, so, where will the portal smurf us to?"
/Thomas\: "It'll take us to a magical place, Clumsy."
/Brainy\: "Ooh, what magical place is it?"
/Thomas\: "I'll puff you when we enter the portal."
/Lazy\: "How many times did you smurf to this magical place, Thomas?"
/Thomas\: "It'll be my third time going there, Lazy."
/Lazy\: "Ohh."
/Edward\: "But for the rest of us, it's our first."
/Smurfette\: "And it'll be our first time for us Smurfs too."
/Thomas\: "You puff that right, Smurfette. Well, here we go!"
With excitement, Thomas, with Mr. Conductor and the 16 Smurfs on board, entered the magical portal.
"/Sound of a European-style train whistle and railway crossing bells\"
The rest of the Steam Team were amazed. And with bravery, the seven Engines entered the magical portal also.
"/Sound of a European-style train whistle and railway crossing bells x7\"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After entering the magical portal, the Steam Team, Mr. Conductor, and the 16 Smurfs came upon the most magical place of all. And the place that they were in, is the Magic Railway.
The 16 Smurfs were amazed and awestruck. The Steam Team(Except Thomas) were also amazed and awestruck.
And Thomas was glad to be back at the Magic Railway.
/Thomas\: "Smurfs, welcome to the Magic Railway."
/The 16 Smurfs\: "Oooh."
/Vanity\: "This magical place is smurftiful."
/Grouchy\: "And it's golden."
/Snappy & Sassette\: "Smurf-a-roo!"
/Thomas\: "And this is where Mr. C. can get more gold dust. Isn't that right, Mr. C.?"
/Mr. Conductor\: "That's right, Thomas."
/Handy & Hefty\: "Wow!"
/James\: "Crikey, Thomas. What you puff about the Magic Railway is true."
/Percy\: "And it is indeed the most wonderful magical place of all."
/Emily\: "Well, you didn't explain everything about it to me when I first came to Sodor."
/Thomas\: "Well my friends, at least you all get a first look of this magical place."
/Edward\: "Oh my, it's so sparkly."
/Henry\: "So marvelous."
/Gordon\: "So peaceful."
/Toby\: "And very enchanting."
/Papa\: "Well Thomas, this is the most smurfy magical place that we Smurfs have ever saw."
/Grandpa\: "And the most smurfiest too."
/Thomas\: "Thank you, Papa Smurf, and Grandpa Smurf."
/Mr. Conductor\: "And also Smurfs, the Magic Railway is run by a very magical and special Engine."
/Painter\: "Ooh-la-la! Who iz zhe very magical and special Engane?"
Just then, everyone heard two toots coming from far away. "/PEEP! PEEP!\"
/Thomas\: "Here she comes now!"
/Sassette\: "She?"
/Smurfette\: "As in another Engine that is a girl?"
/Thomas\: "You puff that right, you two."
/Sassette & Smurfette\: "Oooh!
Everyone looked ahead, and they could see the magical Engine coming straight towards them.
The magical Engine is a small red-purple tank Engine, and she has golden sparkles that were flying out from right behind her. And the name of this magical Engine, is Lady.
/Lady\: "/PEEP! PEEP!\"
Thomas was very happy to see Lady again.
/Thomas\: "/PEEP! PEEP!\"
/Smurfette\: "She's so beautiful."
/Sassette\: "And golden."
/Snappy\: "What's her name, Thomas?"
/Thomas\: "Her name is Lady, Snappy."
/Smurfette, Sassette, & Snappy\: "Whoa."
Lady stopped right in front of the Steam Team.
/Thomas\: "Hello, Lady."
/Lady\: "Hello, Thomas. It's so good to see you again."
/Thomas\: "It's so good to see you again too."
/Lady\: "And I see you brought your friends with you."
/Thomas\: "I sure did."
/The Steam team minus Thomas & Emily\: "Hello, Lady."
/Lady\: "And hello to you all too. Oh, and who's that Engine?"
/Emily\: "I'm Emily. Thomas didn't tell me much about you, I was new to Sodor."
/Lady\: "Well, it's so nice to meet you, Emily."
/Emily\: "Likewise, Lady."
Then Lady noticed the 16 Smurfs.
/Lady\: "Oh, my! Thomas, who are those little blue beings?"
/Thomas\: "They're Smurfs, Lady."
/Lady\: "Smurfs? I've never heard of those kind of things before."
/Thomas\: "Well, they are mythical creatures. And the reason why you never heard stories about them, is because they try to keep their existence from ever happening."
/James\: "But it was too late, No thanks to a certain evil "but stupid" wizard who kept spending his life of trying to eat them or turning them into gold."
Lady was shocked.
/Lady\: "Oh my, those poor innocent little things! No wonder I never heard stories about them!" And I'm very sorry too."
/Thomas\: "But don't worry, Lady. They always outsmart that old slow coach wizard anyway."
/Lady\: "Oh, well, alright. So, where do they come from?"
/Thomas\: "They came from the 16th century, and they got to Sodor by time-traveling."
/Lady\: "My, the 16th century is so long ago! And they can time-travel? Amazing!"
/Thomas\: "It sure is. And the eight of us are going with them to their time period."
/Lady\: "What? The eight of you are going to the 16th century? Oh, dear!"
/Thomas\: "What's the matter?"
/Lady\: "Well, it's just that, the 16th century is not a good time period for Engines to go to, and they weren't even invented at that time."
Lady's reply made Handy asking a question.
/Handy\: "Thomas, when was the first steam locomotive invented in?"
/Thomas\: Well Handy, the steam locomotive was invented in the late 1700's. But, the very first full-scale working railway steam locomotive was built in England in the early 1800's."
/Hefty\: "Hey, that's the same time when the Island of Sodor was discovered."
/Thomas\: "That's right, Hefty."
Handy and Hefty felt pleased with themselves.
/Lady\: "Now, I need to know. Why would eight steam engines want to go to the 16th century for?"
/Thomas\: "The Smurfs invited us to go to their home village, Lady."
/Lady\: "Oh, I see. That's a grand invitation. But still, things could get dangerous in the 16th century."
/James\: "Don't worry, Lady. The Smurfs will puff great care of us."
/Lady\: "Oh, alright then. And Smurfs, it's so wonderful to meet you all."
/The 15 Smurfs minus Wild\: "And it's smurfderful to smurf you too, Lady."
/Wild\: "Smoo-wah!"
/Lady\: "/Giggling\ I'm sorry, but I don't understand on what you're puffing."
/Thomas\: "That's because they speak in a smurf language, by replacing a word with the word "smurf"."
/Lady\: "Oh, I get it now. And I like the way you Smurfs speak."
/Papa\: "Thank you. It smurfs some time for you to get used to it."
/Lady\: "I know. So, what brings you all to my magic railway?"
/Thomas\: "Well, by puffing here, we're trying to find a way to go to the 16th century."
/Lady\: "Well you puff to the right place, my friends. Follow me."
Lady began to reverse back. And the Steam Team, with the 16 Smurfs and Mr. Conductor aboard Thomas, followed her. The nine Engines all chuffed through the magical countryside along the Magic Railway.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And at last, they all reached the end of the line.
Lady switched tracks and chuffed into a siding. And she led the Steam Team to another set of buffers.
The 16 Smurfs were surprised and puzzled.
/Snappy\: "Oh smurfy, another dead end."
/Lady\: "/Chuckling\ Just a minute there. These set of buffers will open a portal to the 16th century."
/Snappy\: "Oh."
/Lady\: "But to open the portal, do you Smurfs have some magical stuff or something?"
/Papa\: "Why yes, we do. We have some time crystals and a sapphire key."
/Lady\: "Oh, splendid. And you can always use those whenever you all come or leave my magic railway."
/Grandpa\: "Smurfy, thank you, Lady."
/Lady\: "Also, you Smurfs might need this."
Lady blew her whistle.
/Lady\: "/PEEEEP!\"
Golden sparkles flew right out of the magical Engine's whistle. The sparkles then swirled in mid-air. And they stopped right in front of Papa.
Then suddenly, the golden sparkles turned into a golden flash of light. After the light fade away, a guard's whistle appeared. Papa opened his hand. And then the whistle was lower down into the palm of the wizard Smurf's hand.
/Lady\: "Take this guard's whistle. You might need it whenever you all need to return to my magic railway and the Island of Sodor. But use it after you use your magical stuff first, Smurfs. Oh, and the whistle is full of gold dust. And whenever you need some more, you can always come to me."
/Papa\: "Smurfy, thank you, Lady."
/Lady\: "Now for the eight of you. Here's a special gift for you all."
Lady closed her eyes. And she blew her whistle.
/Lady\: "/PEEEEP!\"
Suddenly, the rails glowed and turned gold from underneath the little red-purple tank engine. Then the gold glow from the rails glided towards the Steam Team. As the rails turned gold from underneath the wheels of the eight Engines, they began to glow again. And as the rails glowed gold, the wheels of the Steam Team began to glow gold also.
The Steam Team were amazed and surprised. And so were the 16 Smurfs and Mr. Conductor.
Just then, the wheels of the eight Engines stopped glowing. But the rails were still glowing and stayed gold.
/Lady\: "Once the eight of you enter the 16th century, you all will become magical Engines! And you all will be running on magic gold rails!"
/Thomas\: "Oh thank you, Lady. And that's the most wonderful gift ever!"
/James\: "I peep to that!"
Lady smiled grandly.
/Mr. Conductor\: "Well, this is where I get off. Now you Engines are on your own."
/Thomas\: "Yes, Mr. Conductor. And thank you for accompanying us."
/Papa\: "Yes, thank you, Mr. C.."
/Mr. Conductor\: "You're welcome, you two."
Mr. Conductor got off of Thomas, walked towards to Lady, and he stand by right beside her.
But just then, Brainy remembered something.
/Brainy\: "Oh, I almost smurfgot! Mr. C., do you have a map of the Island of Sodor?"
/Mr. Conductor\: "Why yes, I do. Why you need it for?"
/Brainy\: "Well, since Thomas smurfed us the changes on Sodor, I need it to upsmurf my book about the island."
/Mr. Conductor\: "Ohh, alright. Here you go."
Mr. Conductor handed the map of the island to Brainy.
/Brainy\: "Smurfy, thank you, Mr. C.."
/Mr. Conductor\: "You're welcome."
/Papa\: "Alright then, are you Engines ready to go?"
/The Steam Team\: "We're steaming ready, Papa Smurf!"
/Papa\: "Ok, here we smurf!"
Papa took out the five time crystals. And Grandpa took out the sapphire key.
As the key got close to the time crystals, in a flash, the multi-colored vortex appeared right in front of the 16 Smurfs.
But there's a problem.
/Thomas\: "Umm, Papa Smurf, it looks a tad small."
/Papa\: "I can smurf that, Thomas."
/Thomas\: "Well, can you do something to make it the right size for us?"
/Grandpa\: "Hmm, maybe you could align the time crystals in a different shape."
/Papa\: "It's worth a smurf."
Papa align the time crystals into a different shape. And suddenly, as Grandpa moved the sapphire key closer to the time crystals, the rainbow vortex grew to the size of the Steam Team.
/The Steam Team\: "WHOOOOOA!"
/Sassette\: "Growing giraffes, it worked!"
/Snappy\: "Indeed!"
/James\: "And it's very colorful!"
/Thomas\: "It sure is."
/Lady\: "Have a splendid time in the 16th century, and take care."
/Thomas\: Yes Lady, we will."
/Lady\: "Good-bye, my friends."
/Mr. Conductor\: "Good-bye, Engines. Good-bye, Smurfs."
/The Steam Team and the 15 Smurfs minus Wild\: "Good-bye, Lady. Good-bye, Mr. C.."
/Papa\: "Ok my little Smurfs, on to home we smurf!"
/The 14 Smurfs minus Papa & Grandpa\: "YAY!"
/Thomas\: "But for us Engines, on to the 16th century we puff!"
/The Steam Team minus Thomas\: "HURRAH!"
One by one, the Steam Team, with the 16 Smurfs on Thomas, entered the multi-colored vortex. "/Sound of a European-style train whistle and railway crossing bells 8x\" Lady and Mr. Conductor watched as Emily, who's the last one, entered the vortex. And with a flash of light, the vortex disappeared.
/Lady\: "Mr. Conductor, how long will Thomas and his friends are going to stay in the 16th century?"
/Mr. Conductor\: "They'll be staying there for three weeks, Lady."
/Lady\: "Oh, good. And I hope they can outsmart the dangers that they're going to face."
/Mr. Conductor\: "You have nothing to worry about. The Smurfs will take great care of them."
/Lady\: "Yes, I know."
/Mr. Conductor\: "Well, I better get back to the Island of Sodor. There's going to be some big help over there, and I need another map."
/Lady\: "And I better get back to running my magic railway. See you later, Mr. Conductor."
/Mr. Conductor\: "See you later, Lady."
And with a blow from his whistle, "/TWEET!\" Mr. Conductor magically flew all the way back to the portal, while Lady chuffed off to do her duty on running her magic railway.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile, inside the fabric of time, the 16 Smurfs and the Steam Team were time-traveling along the vortex.
The eight Engines were amazed and awestruck. As they chuffed along the vortex, everywhere they could see were colors of the rainbow.
/Thomas\: "/Echoing\ Cinders and ashes, so this is what it's like to time-travel."
/Edward\: "/Echoing\ It's so enchanting."
/Henry\: "/Echoing\ It's so magical."
/Gordon\: "/Echoing\ And it's not so dangerous."
/James\: "/Echoing\ And our voices echoes while we're inside the vortex."
/Percy\: "/Echoing\ Hello! Echo! We Engines are traveling through time!"
/Toby\: "/Echoing\ This is the most splendid thing that we Engines ever experienced."
/Emily\: "/Echoing\ And the best part is; we get to do this more often."
/Papa\: "/Echoing\ Well, I suppose we can do that from now on. That way, we can smurf each other again."
/Grouchy\: "/Echoing\ Oh thank you, Papa Smurf. Now I don't have to be sad anymore."
/Papa\: "/Echoing\ And I'm glad that I can smurf you happy again, Grouchy."
Grouchy beamed brightly.
/Thomas\: "/Echoing\ So, which you Smurfs like to time-travel in? A whirlwind or a vortex?"
/The 15 Smurfs minus Wild\: "/Echoing\ Vortex!"
/Wild\: "/Echoing\ Smoo-wah!"
/Thomas\: "/Echoing\ /Giggling\ And we think that time-traveling in a vortex is much better too. Right, my friends?"
/The Steam Team minus Thomas\: "Right!"
/James\: "/Echoing\ And if we time-travel in a whirlwind, we get ourselves dizzy. And even much worse."
And the rest of the Steam Team agreed with James.
/Papa\: "/Echoing\ Well, glad we're on the same subject."
Suddenly, there was a flash of light at the end of the vortex. And the Steam Team began to go faster and heading straight towards the light.
/The Steam Team minus Thomas\: "/Echoing\ WHOOOOOOOOA!"
/Thomas\: "/Echoing\ FLATTEN MY FUNNEL! PAPA SMURF, WHAT'S PUFFING ON? WE'RE GOING TOO FAST!"
/Papa\: "/Echoing\ DON'T WORRY, THOMAS! THIS SMURFPENED TO US TOO!"
/Grandpa\: "/Echoing\ AND HERE COMES THE FLASH OF LIGHT! SMURF YOURSELVES!"
As the 16 Smurfs and the Steam Team got closer to the light, one by one, they all phase into it.
/The 16 Smurfs\: "/Echoing\ WHOA!"
/Thomas\: "/Echoing\ OHH!"
/Edward\: "/Echoing\ AHH!"
/Henry\: "/Echoing\ AAH!"
/Gordon\: "/Echoing\ AAH!"
/James\: "/Echoing\ WHOA!"
/Percy\: "/Echoing\ WHOA!"
/Toby\: "/Echoing\ OHH!"
/Emily\: "/Echoing\ AHH!"
And after that, the flash of light disappeared.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the medieval times, things were peace and quiet. Well, not for long.
Just then, the rainbow vortex appeared on the grass in an open field. One by one, the 16 Smurfs exit out of the vortex. As they were out of the vortex, they could see that they're in their regular clothes. And they all know that they were finally back at their time period.
/Snappy\: "Smurf-a-roo, it's so smurfy to be back home!"
/Sassette\: "Yeah, it sure is!"
/Smurfette\: "But wait, where the Engines?"
/Snappy & Sassette\: "We don't know!"
/Brainy\: "Look! The vortex is still open!"
Everyone turned to where Brainy was pointing.
/Clumsy\: "Golly, I wonder why it's still smurf?"
/Handy\: "Maybe the Engines are still in there!"
/Hefty\: "I hope that they're alright!"
/Grouchy\: "Papa Smurf, what should we smurf?"
/Papa\: "Don't worry, my little Smurfs. The reason why the vortex is still smurf is because the Engines are still in there. And I bet that they're smurfing out right now."
And Papa said that at the right time.
Just then, the 16 Smurfs heard the echoing voices of the Steam Team.
/The Steam Team\: "/Echoing\ WHOOOOOOOOA!"
One by one, Thomas and his seven friends exit out of the vortex safely.
/Thomas\: "OOH!"
/Edward\: "OHH!"
/Henry\: "WHOA!"
/Gordon\: "WHOA!"
/James\: "OHH!"
/Percy\: "OOH!"
/Toby\: "OOH!"
/Emily\: "OHH!"
After Emily was the last one to exit out, the vortex then disappeared.
/Papa\: "See? What did I smurf ya."
/Vanity\: "Whew! Thank smurfness."
The Steam Team felt very dizzy with their eyes spinning round and round.
/Thomas\: "Bubbling boilers, that's some time-traveling."
/James\: "I peep to that."
/Edward\: "Oh, my aching axles and gears."
/Emily\: "And my aching boiler."
And after that, the Steam Team closed their eyes, and they recovered from their dizziness. Then they looked all around.
/Thomas\: "Can this be? Are we I think we're in?"
/Papa\: "Yes, Thomas. You Engines are here at our time period."
/The Steam Team\: "Whooooa!"
Then Thomas noticed something that made him surprised.
/Thomas\: "Papa Smurf! You and the other Smurfs had grew!"
/Papa\: "Actually Thomas, you and your friends had smurf, or as you say, shrunk."
The Steam Team all looked at each other.
/Percy\: "Bouncing buffers, we're like a bunch of toys!"
/Henry\: "Or scaled models!"
/Gordon\: "Oh, the indignity!"
/Thomas\: "Well, I guess we have to get used to it. After all, steam locomotives weren't invented at this time period."
Then James noticed something different about the 16 Smurfs.
/James\: "Papa Smurf, you and the others are wearing some different clothes."
/Papa\: "Well James, this is what we smurf in this time period."
/Thomas\: "Really? Just a hat and trousers?"
/Edward\: "Well, Handy is wearing overalls. And so is Grandpa Smurf and Sassette."
/James\: "And Painter is wearing a jacket. And Snappy is wearing a shirt."
/Emily\: "And Smurfette is indeed wearing a dress."
/Thomas\: "Do you Smurfs wear the same thing all the time?"
/Papa\: "Yes, even in the winter."
/Percy\: "Boy, you Smurfs most be cold at that time."
/Grandpa\: "Not really, we're warm blooded beings. But, we do wear scarfs, earmuffs, and mittens at that time, and also some coats, but when we really need to during a big freeze."
/Percy\: "Oh, alright."
/Papa\: "Now, is there some other things that you Engines want to smurf?"
/Thomas\: "Well… no, we're done with that."
/Papa\: "Good."
/Toby\: "So, where are we, Papa Smurf?"
Papa looked all around and he recognized it.
/Papa\: "Ah! We must be at the south! I know this field from the back of my smurf."
/Grandpa\: "And there's the forest."
/Thomas\: "And by going in the forest, the village will be there, right?"
/Papa\: "That's right, Thomas."
/Thomas\: "Then what are we standing here for? Let's get puffing!"
/James\: "And look! You Smurfs are just the right size to come aboard inside our cabs!"
/Vanity\: "Yeah! You're right, James!"
/Grouchy\: "Come on, everysmurf!
So the 16 Smurfs boarded on one of the Steam Team. And each Engine gets two Smurfs.
Brainy and Papa boarded Thomas.
Handy and Grandpa boarded Edward.
Painter and Wild boarded Henry.
Hefty and Snappy boarded Gordon.
Grouchy and Vanity boarded James.
Jokey and Lazy boarded Percy.
Clumsy and Greedy boarded Toby.
And Sassette and Smurfette boarded Emily.
/Papa\: "Ok, is everysmurf asmurf in an Engine?"
/The 13 Smurfs minus Grandpa & Wild\: "Yes!"
/Wild\: "Uh-huh!"
/Papa\: "And are you Engines ready?"
/The Steam Team\: "We're ready!"
/Thomas\: "And since we arrived in this time period, we're magical Engines now! And we're running on magic rails too!"
/Papa\: "I can smurf that! Ok, off we smurf! Into the forest we smurf!"
And the Steam Team, with the 16 Smurfs aboard on one of them, chuffed magically off towards the forest.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As the eight Engines entered the forest, everything was calm and peaceful. The birds were singing. "/Sound of birds singing\" The bees were buzzing. "/Sound of bees buzzing\" And some of the other animals were doing their own things. And the trees and plants stood grandly into their places.
The Steam Team were amazed. And now that they're small, every time they look around, they could see everything that were much bigger than ever before. And they could also see things that were the same size as them. But they were getting used to it already.
The Steam Team chuffed, huffed, and puffed along a trail, and they were chuffing straight towards the north. They and the 16 Smurfs were enjoying their time enormously. The eight Engine chuffed deeper, and deeper, and deeper towards the core of the forest, and that's where the Smurf village was located. The Steam Team were very excited, and they can't wait to meet the other 88 Smurfs. And they can't wait to see Baby Smurf again, especially James.
Just then, Papa shouted.
/Papa\: "ENGINES, STOP!"
"/Brake Screeching\"
/The Steam Team\: "WHOOOOA!"
/Thomas\: "What's the matter, Papa Smurf?"
/Papa\: "Nothing, I just want you Engines to stop."
/Thomas\: "Well, are we almost to your village?"
/Papa\: "We're nearly there, Thomas. But first there's one thing that I need to smurf."
/Thomas\: "Oh, alright. Take your time."
/Papa\: "Thank you, Thomas."
Papa turned to one of his little Smurfs.
/Papa\: "WILD!"
When Wild heard Papa calling him, he got off of Henry and raced towards to Thomas. And when the long-lost-but-now-found Smurf got there, he waited on what the leader Smurf would say.
/Papa\: "Wild, I want you to smurf as quickly as you can to the village, and when you get there, tell the others that we're back and coming home. Can you smurf that for me?"
Wild nodded his head up and down.
/Papa\: "Ok, then. Smurf!"
/Wild\: "Smoo-wah!"
Wild went to a tree and climbed up all the way to a branch. And when he got there, he raced off with a dash and went completely out of sight.
/Wild\: "/Yelling like Tarzan\"
/Henry\: "Rattle my rods, look at Wild go!"
/Percy\: "He sure is fast!"
/Emily\: "He must be faster than Gordon!"
/Gordon\: "Pah! I don't think so! He must be dashing at least at 60 mph!"
/Hefty\: "Gordon's right. Wild can't go that fast like 100 mps(miles per smurf). But, he is fastest to us Smurfs. Why, he can outsmurf a person in a smurf!"
/Gordon\: "Really? Well, that's good for you Smurfs."
/Hefty\: "It sure is, Gordon. It sure is."
/Thomas\: "Papa Smurf, how long do we have to wait? And I hope Wild doesn't take too long."
/Papa\: "Don't worry, Thomas. Wild will be back quickly before you can smurf, "Smurf my smurfs!", or as you smurf, "Bust my buffers!"."
/Thomas\: "If you puff so, Papa Smurf. If you puff so."
So all the 15 Smurfs and the Steam Team could do was just wait until Wild returns. But while they wait, they will find some way to entertain themselves. And they won't have to wait for much longer now.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile, at the Smurf village, the other 89 Smurfs were busy keeping the village in order. A group of 40 Smurfs and the Clockworks were still building a roundhouse for the Steam Team, but they were nearly finished doing that project. The rest of the Smurfs were busy doing their own duties. The three Smurflings, Nat, Slouchy, and Baby Smurf were busy doing things to entertain themselves. And Nanny was busy watching the others work and keeping things well in order.
Everything was going well.
/Nanny\: "Ah. I just love smurfing the others working their smurfs off. Now, gotta go check on the other Smurfs who are smurfing the roundhouse for the Engines."
Nanny walked across the village. Every time she passed by, she sees every Smurf being busy. She could see Feathers up of the tower resting, and Puppy in his doghouse sleeping. And she could also see the three Smurflings playing with Smoogle. Nanny was very happy to see the village getting busy and a wonderful place to live in.
Architect was busy looking at both the group of 40 Smurfs with the Clockworks building the roundhouse and at his design paper. He wants to make sure that the roundhouse looks exactly like the one that he drew on his paper.
And Willing was in charge of doing Handy's jobs and telling the others what to do.
The two Smurfs felt very proud of themselves.
/Willing\: "Ok, Smurfs. Smurf that shed slowly down. Easy, easy, easy, and… Smurf! Smurffect!"
/Tuffy\: "Whew! That smurf a lot of pressure to smurf that shed in the right place."
/Willing\: "Well, Tuffy. At least we did it. Now the last thing to smurf is smurfing in the turntable. So you better get smurfing on that right now."
/Tuffy\: "Aye-aye, boss."
/Architect\: "Smurfy, it's almost finished. Now we're smurfing some progress."
Just then, Nanny stepped in beside Architect.
/Nanny\: "Hello, Architect."
/Architect\: "Oh, hello, Nanny."
/Nanny\: "So, how's the roundhouse smurfing?"
/Architect\: "It's smurfing smurfy, Nanny. We just need to smurf in the turntable and then we're all finished."
/Nanny\: "Smurfvelous! I hope the Engines will like it."
/Architect\: "Ohh, I'm sure that they'll like it."
/Nanny\: "Yeah. Alright then, smurf up the smurfy work."
/Architect\: "Thank you, Nanny. Bye."
/Nanny\: "Bye."
And Nanny walk away.
Sweepy was cleaning a chimney at one of the Smurfs' house . And suddenly, he heard someone shouting.
/Wild\: "SMOO-WAH!"
/Sweepy\: "Crikey! That sounds like Wild!"
/Wild\: "SMOO-WAH!"
/Sweepy\: "IT IS WILD! I must smurf and tell Nanny! "
Sweepy quickly climbed down on his ladder, and went off to find Nanny.
Nanny was walking towards her house. She had just got there when she heard Sweepy calling her.
/Sweepy\: "NANNY! NANNY!"
/Nanny\: "Smurf-a-roonie, that's Sweepy!"
Sweepy approached to Nanny.
/Nanny\: "My smurfness, Sweepy! What is it?"
/Sweepy\: "Nanny, I just smurf Wild, he's back and coming!"
/Nanny\: "Great smurfs of fire! That also means that the others are back and coming too!"
/Sweepy\: "What should we smurf? What should we smurf?"
/Nanny\: "Now don't panic! I'll get Harmony to gather the other Smurfs!"
/Sweepy\: "Ok, you smurf that!"
Nanny quickly went off to find Harmony.
Harmony was at his house doing chores.
/Harmony\: "/Humming the Smurf tune\"
But just then, the off-key musical Smurf heard Nanny calling him.
/Nanny\: "HARMONY! HARMONY!"
/Harmony\: "Whoa! What's happening, Nanny?"
/Nanny\: "Quick, use your trumpet to gather the other Smurfs! Papa Smurf and the others are back and coming!"
/Harmony\: "What? They're back and coming? Yippee!"
Harmony quickly went to fetch his trumpet, and he and Nanny ran off. As the trumpet playing Smurf, along with Nanny, got to the village center, he took a deep breath.
/Harmony\: "/INHALE\"
And then, Harmony blew his trumpet louder than ever.
/Harmony\: "/Playing trumpet\"
The other Smurfs all heard Harmony sounding his trumpet, and they all quickly went off to the village center.
/Harmony\: "/Playing trumpet\"
At last, the 87 Smurfs were all gathered at the village center.
And Harmony stopped sounding his trumpet.
/Harmony\: "Hear-ye, hear-ye! Nanny has something to smurf!"
The other Smurfs all listen carefully.
/Nanny\: "Smurfs, Papa Smurf and the others are back and coming!"
/The 86 Smurfs & the Clockworks minus Harmony, Sweepy, & Nanny\: "YAAAAY!"
/Sweepy\: "And I just smurf Wild!"
/Wooly\: "Yee-hee! And I knew that they won't be gone for long."
/Marco\: "Oh, it's so smurfy to smurf them again!"
/Christopher\: "I smurf to that, my brother!"
/Nanny\: "Please, smurf your voices! Let's all hear if Wild's still smurfing."
The 89 Smurfs all went silent, and they began to listen for Wild.
And suddenly, they all heard Wild shouting.
/Wild\: "SWOO-WAH!"
/Poet\: "Yeah, he's still smurfing!"
/Miner\: "And he should be smurfing right about… now!"
Miner said that at the right time.
/Wild\: "SWOO-WAH!"
Everyone turned to where Wild was shouting.
And just then, Wild appeared in the distance.
/Farmer\: "Look, he's smurfing!"
/Wild\: "/Chattering loudly\"
The 89 Smurfs watched as Wild dashed through the village, and he stopped right in front of the group.
/Nanny\: "Wild, welcome back!"
/Wild\: "/Chattering\"
But some of the other Smurfs looked very puzzled.
/Slouchy\: "Umm… where the others?"
/Nat\: "Yeah, where the others, Wild?"
/Wild\: "/Chattering\"
/Nat\: "Ohh, I smurf."
/Dreamy\: "What did Wild smurf, Nat?"
/Nat\: "Wild smurfed that the others are in the forest."
/Wild\: "/Chattering\"
/Nat\: "And he also smurfed that the Engines are with them."
/Nanny\: "Smurftastic!"
Then Nanny turned to the othet Smurfs.
/Nanny\: "Ok Smurfs, smurf back on what smurfing and finish it quickly."
/The 85 Smurfs minus Nat, Slouchy, & Baby Smurf\: "Yes, Nanny!"
/The two Clockworks\: "/In robot talk\ Uh-huh!"
And the 85 Smurfs and the Clockworks(Except Nat, Slouchy, and Baby Smurf) all went back to what they were doing before.
Nanny turned to the two Smurflings.
/Nanny\: "And you two have the most important job of all!"
/Slouchy\: "Ooh, what do we get to smurf?"
/Nanny\: "Both of you will smurf on the others and smurf if they're almost finished on what they're smurfing."
/Nat\: "Ok, we can smurf that."
/Nanny\: "And smurf Baby Smurf to me. I'll smurf it from here."
Slouchy handed Baby Smurf to Nanny. And he and Nat went off to do their job.
Then Nanny turned to Wild.
/Nanny\: "Wild, you can go and smurf Papa Smurf, the others, and the Engines that they can now smurf to the village. And there's no need to rush."
/Wild\: "/Chattering\"
Wild turned and went off through the village, and he dashed away into the forest.
/Nanny\: "Come on, Baby. We also had to smurf on the others to see if they're nearly finished on what they're smurfing."
/Baby Smurf\: "/Cooing\"
And Nanny, along with Baby Smurf, walked off around the village to do her duty.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the forest, the 15 Smurfs and the Steam Team were waiting for Wild to return. They all been waiting for 20 minutes. But, they all did find a way to entertain themselves. They were playing a game, and the game they were playing was "I spy". The Engines tell the 15 Smurfs what they see, and the 15 Smurfs had to guess on what the Engines saw. And they all think that playing "I spy" was kind of fun. Well, almost fun.
/Thomas\: "Alright then, I'll have a go. I spy with my eye something that is… white."
/Brainy\: "Our hats?"
/Thomas\: "No."
/Clumsy\: "Uh, our pants?"
/Thomas\: "No."
/Smurfette\: "My dress?"
/Thomas\: "No."
/Smurfette\: "My shoes?"
/Thomas\: "No."
/Snappy\: "The clouds?"
/Thomas\: "No."
/Sassette\: "Those flowers?"
/Thomas\: "No."
/Painter\: "Hmm. Oh, zhose thingz right at the front of you Enganez?"
/Thomas\: "Our headlamps? Yes!"
/Painter\: "Yez, I got it!"
/Percy\: "Splendid! Now it's my turn. I spy with my eye something that is… yellow."
/Handy\: "Is it Grandpa Smurf's hat?"
/Percy\: "No."
/Handy\: "Is it his overalls?"
/Percy\: "No."
/Hefty\: "The sun?"
/Percy\: "No."
/Jokey\: "Those flowers?"
/Percy\: "No."
/Lazy\: "/YAWN\ That bird?"
/Percy\: "No."
/Greedy\: "Those stripes on that bee?"
/Percy\: "No."
/Snappy\: "Hmm. Oh, I know! My shirt?"
/Percy\: "Yes!"
/Snappy\: "Oh, yeah! Oh, yeah! I got it! I got it!"
/Emily\: "/Giggling\ Alright, my turn. I spy with my eye something that is… brown."
/Vanity\: "Hmm. Those tree trunks?"
/Emily\: "No."
/Grouchy\: "Normally I HATE playing games! But, I'll play. Is it that log?"
/Emily\: "No."
/Brainy\: "That owl?"
/Emily\: "No."
/Hefty\: "That rabbit?"
/Emily\: "No."
/Painter\: "Zhat chipmunk?"
/Emily\: "No."
/Clumsy\: "Uh, the dirt?"
/Emily\: "No."
/Greedy\: "Hmm, what else is brown? Ohh! What did I smurf of this before! Is it Toby?"
/Emily\: "Yes!"
/Greedy\: "Yay! I smurfed it!"
/James\: "Great guessing, Greedy. Now I'll have a go. I spy with my eye something that is… green."
/Handy\: "The grass?"
/James\: "No."
/Snappy\: "The leaves?"
/James\: "No."
/Sassette\: "Those bushes?"
/James\: "No."
/Hefty\: "Those weeds?"
/James\: "No."
/Painter\: "Iz it Monsieur Henry?"
/James\: "No."
/Lazy\: "Is it Percy?"
/James\: "No."
/Smurfette\: "Is it Emily?"
/James\: "Yes!"
/Smurfette\: "Ooh! I smurfed that one right!"
/Edward\: "Good one, Smurfette. My turn now. I spy with my eye something that is… red."
/Brainy\: "Is it Papa Smurf's hat?"
/Edward\: "No."
/Brainy\: "Is it his pants?"
/Edward\: "No."
/Painter\: "Iz it my jacket?"
/Edward\: "No."
/Smurfette\: "That ladybug?"
/Edward\: "No."
/Sassette\: "That butterfly?"
/Edward\: "No."
/Vanity\: "Is it James?"
/Edward\: "No."
/Grouchy\: "Hmm. Oh! Is it my charm?"
/Edward\: "Yes!"
/Grouchy\: "Alright! I LOVE it when I smurfed it right!"
/James\: "Splendid guessing, Grouchy."
/Grouchy\: "Thank you, James."
/Papa\: "Well my little Smurfs, was it that fun?"
/Snappy\: "Well, I guess."
/Sassette\: "I think it's fun."
/Vanity\: "Well, I think it's almost fun."
/Grouchy\: "I agree to that."
/Thomas\: "Well, we had fun."
/Percy\: "I agree with Thomas."
/Henry\: "I did have fun."
/Gordon\: "Well, I almost had fun."
/Toby\: "But at least we find some way to keep ourselves busy."
And everyone agreed with Toby.
/Thomas\: "Papa Smurf, how long has it been since Wild left?"
/Papa\: "Well Thomas, it's been awhile."
/Thomas\: "Oh, bother."
/Grandpa\: "Well, I guess we have to wait a little longer."
/Grouchy\: "I HATE waiting for a little longer!"
/James\: "Me too!"
/Vanity\: "Me three!"
/Hefty\: "In fact, we all hate to wait!"
/Gordon\: "Us Engines too!"
/Edward\: "Well, I don't mind waiting a little longer."
/Handy\: "Me too. And why can't you all be more like me and Edward? Or Papa Smurf and Grandpa Smurf?"
/Papa\: "Handy has a smurf there, everysmurf."
Guess everyone had no other choice.
/Thomas\: "/SIGH\ Alright. We'll wait then."
/James\: "But still, we don't like it."
So the 15 Smurfs and the Steam Team went on waiting. But their waiting has cut short when they heard Wild shouting.
/Wild\: "SWOO-WAH!"
/Henry\: "/GASP\ That's Wild!"
/Painter\: "He'z smurfing!"
/Hefty\: "I guess we don't have to wait after all."
/Gordon\: "I poop to that, Hefty."
/Thomas\: "Look, here comes Wild now!"
Everyone looked up. And they could see Wild jumping and swinging from tree to tree.
Then Wild jumped down, and he landed onto the ground.
The 15 Smurfs and the Steam Team were very glad to see Wild.
/Henry\: "Wild, thank goodness you're here!"
/Gordon\: "And we thought that we have to wait for much longer!"
/Hefty\: "Well guess what? We don't have to!"
/Painter\: "Oui!"
/Papa\: "So Wild, is it ok for us to resmurf to the village?"
/Wild\: "Uh-huh, Uh-huh!"
/Papa\: "Smurfy! Let's smurf, everysmurf!"
Grouchy spoke up to James.
/Grouchy\: "Psst, James."
/James\: "What is it, Grouchy?"
/Grouchy\: "When we get to the village, I have to be my grouchy self again, and I don't want the other Smurfs to find out that I'm "Happy Grouchy". Do you undersmurf?"
/James\: "I understand. Maybe I should be grouchy too. After all, I am "Grouchy James"."
/Grouchy\: "You can be whatever you want to be."
/James\: "Thank you, Grouchy."
/Thomas\: "Alright then."
/The Steam Team\: "All aboard!"
The 16 Smurfs boarded on one of the eight Engines. And then, the Steam Team, with two Smurfs in each one of them, set off once more towards the village.
The eight Engines were still chuffing along the trail. But they were getting closer and closer to the village.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And at the village, the other Smurfs(Except Nat, Slouchy, Nanny, and Baby Smurf) were finishing and hurrying themselves on the jobs that they were doing.
The two Smurflings and Nanny, along with Baby Smurf, were going around the village to check on the others to see if they were finished.
/Nat\: "Sweepy, are you finished on what you're smurfing?"
/Sweepy\: "Almost, my little mate!"
/Nat\: "Ok! When you're smurfed, smurf to the south entrance!"
/Sweepy\: "Got it, little mate!"
After that, Nat went off to check on the other Smurfs.
/Slouchy\: "Christopher, Marco, are you both finished on what you're smurfing?"
/Christopher\: "Nearly there, ol' chap."
/Marco\: "In just a few minutes."
/Slouchy\: "Smurf-a-roo! When you're done, smurf to the south entrance."
/Christopher & Marco\: "Smurfo, ol' chap."
After that, Nat went off to check on the rest of the Smurfs.
Nanny was also checking on the rest of the Smurfs as she walked around village with Baby Smurf. Every time she met up another Smurf, she says the same thing that the two Smurflings said. And some of the Smurfs said the same answer that Sweepy, Christopher, and Marco said. And Nanny also said to the other Smurfs that once they're done, they all should go to the south entrance. And they all got it perfectly clear.
At the roundhouse site, the group of 40 Smurfs and the Clockworks were almost finished with the project. By using Handy's smurf-made crane, they were trying to put the turntable down in the right position. And Willing was handling the situation.
/Willing\: "Ok Smurfs, smurf it down slowly!"
/Architect\: "And gently!"
One of the Smurfs was handling the smurf-made crane by using the controls. And the turntable was lowering down.
/Willing\: "Ok, smurfy so far."
/Architect\: "That's good, that's good."
The turntable was almost down.
/Willing\: "Nearly there. Almost."
/Architect\: "And…"
And then, with one last lowering, the turntable was well in placed.
/Willing\: "Smurfy done! We did it, Smurfs!"
/The group of 40 Smurfs & the Clockworks\: "/Cheering\"
/Architect\: "Well done, Willing. The roundhouse looks smurfy, and it looks just like the one in my design paper."
/Willing\: "Thank you, Architect. And it was worth it."
/Tuffy\: "Whew! What a day we smurfed! Are we done yet?"
/Willing\: "Almost. Now all we need to do is to add the gears and gizmos inside the turntable."
/Tuffy\: "Is that all?"
/Willing\: "Yep, that's all."
/Tuffy\: "Well in that case, I'm going to the south entrance, right now!"
/Willing\: "Wait! Don't you want to help out?"
/Tuffy\: "Nah, I'm done for the day. Besides, you only need a few number of Smurfs to smurf that job. Smurf you at the entrance!"
And Tuffy ran off.
/Architect\: "You know, Tuffy's right. You do only need a few number of Smurfs to smurf the gears and gizmos inside the turntable."
/Willing\: "Yeah, I agree."
Willing turned to his group.
/Willing\: "Listen up, Smurfs! I only need 10 Smurfs to smurf in the gears and gizmos inside the turntable! Any volunteers?"
10 Smurfs raised their hands.
/Willing\: "Ok, you 10 will do. And this time, Architect will be in charge."
/Architect\: "What? Then what are you going to smurf?"
/Willing\: "I'm done with this project. Me and the others did all the building of this roundhouse after all. And you can handle this small job, it'll be fine."
/Architect\: "Well, alright. I'll do it."
/Willing\: "Smurfy, thank you, Architect."
/Architect\: "Any time, Willing."
/Willing\: "Ok, Smurfs! For those of you who are done, to the south entrance!"
/The group of 30 Smurfs\: "YAAAY!"
/Willing\: "And you Clockworks can go to the entrance too."
/Clockwork Smurf & Clockwork Smurfette\: "/In robot talk\ /Chirping happily\"
And Willing, the group of 30 Smurfs, and the Clockworks ran off to the entrance.
At the south entrance, there was a crowd of Smurfs. And some of them had finished doing their jobs.
Nanny, Nat, Slouchy, and Baby Smurf were already there. And they could see one of the Smurfs coming from where they were.
/Harmony\: "Phew! I'm finished with my job!"
/Farmer\: "Me too!"
/Timber\: "I finished mine!"
/Miner\: "I'm done!"
/Sweepy\: "I'm finished!"
/Pushover\: "I've done mine! Finally."
/Dabbler\: "I'm finished!"
/Tailor\: "Me too!"
/Christopher & Marco\: "So did we two! High smurf! HA-HA-HA-HA!"
/Tuffy\: "And we finished ours!"
/The two Clockworks\: "/In robot talk\ /Chirping\"
/Willing\: "But Architect and a group of 10 Smurfs are smurfing some finishing touches on the turntable."
/Tracker\: "Oh. Well they better hurry. Papa Smurf, the other Smurfs, and the Engines will be here any minute!"
/Nanny\: "Ok, Smurfs! Keep a smurfy eye out for them!"
Nanny turned to one of the Smurfs.
/Nanny\: "Latino!"
/Latino\: "Si, Nanny?"
/Nanny\: "You will be the welcoming committee to the Engines."
/Latino\: "Fantástico! I'll do that!"
/Nanny\: "I knew you will."
Then everyone turned to the distance. And they all began to wait.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Further down the trail, the 16 Smurfs and the Steam Team were getting closer to the village.
/Papa\: "Ok, Thomas! Just smurf that bend and we're there!"
/Thomas\: "Righto, Papa Smurf!"
At the village south entrance, the 78 Smurfs and the Clockworks were still waiting for the arrival of the other 16 Smurfs and the Steam Team.
But then, Nat saw something. He could see some smoke up in the air and in the distance."
/Nat\: "Nanny, I smurf some smoke over there!"
/Nanny\: "Oh, my smurfness! I hope it's not a fire!"
As the Steam Team passed the bend, they could see the village up ahead.
/Thomas\: "There's the village! We're here at last!"
/Harmony\: "Hey look, here they smurf!"
/Poet\: "And that smoke isn't from a fire, it is from the Engines!"
/Nanny\: "Oh, thank smurfness!"
The 78 Smurfs and the Clockworks all cheered.
/The 78 Smurfs & the Clockworks\: "/Cheering\"
/Percy\: "Look! There the other Smurfs, and they're cheering for us!"
/Thomas\: "Come on, my friends! Let's whistle!"
/The Steam Team\: "/Whistling\ringing\"
/The 78 Smurfs & the Clockworks\: "/Cheering continues\"
Grouchy and James could see that they're almost at the village. So the former bad-tempered Smurf paced his scowled face. And the #5 engine paced his crossed face.
Vanity couldn't help but giggle.
/Vanity\: "/Giggling\ Oh, those two."
And at last, the 16 Smurfs and the Steam Team arrived at the village.
/The 78 Smurfs & the Clockworks\: "/Cheering continues\"
/Thomas\: "/PEEP! PEEP!\"
/Edward\: "/PEEP! PEEP!\"
/Henry\: "/PEEP! PEEP!\"
/Gordon\: "/POOP! POOP!\"
/James\: "/PEEP! PEEP!\"
/Percy\: "/PEEP! PEEP!\"
/Toby\: "/DING-DING! DING-DING!\"
/Emily\: "/PEEP! PEEP!\"
After entering the village, the Steam Team, with the 16 Smurfs aboard, chuffed at the village center. The other 78 Smurfs and the Clockworks then followed. And then, the eight Engines came to a complete stop.
The 78 Smurfs and the Clockworks all gathered round. The 16 Smurfs got off the Steam Team.
Nanny greeted the 16 Smurfs warmly.
/Nanny\: "Papa! Grampers! Smurfs! Welcome back!"
/Papa\: "And it's smurfy to be back, Nanny!"
/Grandpa\: "It sure is!"
/Nanny\: "And these must be the Engines that you smurfed us about. Smurfy to meet you. I'm Nanny."
/The Steam Team minus Emily\: "It's "smurfy" to meet you too, Nanny!"
/Emily\: "And Smurfette told me so much about you."
/Nanny\: "Likewise, Emily. And I know that you're not the only girl Engine from the island, is that right?"
/Emily\: "No. There are some Engines who are girls too."
/Nanny\: "Well, I'm glad to smurf that."
Emily beamed from buffer to buffer.
Just then, Latino stepped in and he greeted the Steam Team.
/Latino\: "Hola amigos, and bienvenidos to our pueblo natal."
Thomas, James, Percy, and Emily didn't understand the language that Latino was speaking. But Edward, Henry, Gordon, and Toby did.
/Thomas\: "I'm sorry, but some of us don't understand on what you're puffing."
/Edward\: "But some of us do know on what he's puffing. He's puffing, "Hello friends, and welcome to our home village"."
/Thomas, James, Percy, and Emily\: "Ohhh."
/Latino\: "Lo siento, I'm sorry. I was smurfing Spanish."
/Percy\: "What's Spanish?"
/Edward\: "Spanish is a language like English."
/Painter\: "And French."
/Edward\: "Like for instance; when this Smurf puffed "hola", he means "hello". Hola is the Spanish word for Hello."
/Thomas, James, Percy, and Emily\: "Ohhh."
/Thomas\: "Tell us, you Smurf. What's your name?"
/Latino\: "Soy Latino. And "soy" means "I'm"."
/Thomas\: "Oh."
/Latino\: "You, Edward. Where did you learn the Spanish language?"
/Edward\: "A long time ago, back at the Island of Sodor that is, I once gave a very important passenger, who came from Spain, a tour of the Island. And she taught me some Spanish ever since."
/Latino\: "Ooh, muy smurfy, Edward."
/Edward\: "Thank you, Latino."
/Henry\: "I know some Spanish too."
/Gordon\: "So do I."
/Toby\: "And I once took some Spanish tourists from Mexico."
/Latino\: "Ah, muy bueno, mi amigos."
/Thomas\: "What does that mean, Latino?"
/Latino\: "It means "very good, my friends"."
/Thomas\: "Oh. Hmm. How do you say "blue" in Spanish?"
/Latino\: "It's "azul"."
/Thomas\: "Ooh, azul. I like that word."
/Percy\: "How do you say "green" in Spanish?"
/Latino\: "It's "verde"."
/Percy\: "Oh."
James pretended to be cross.
/James\: "I don't like to ask! But, how do you say "red" in Spanish?"
/Latino\: "/Giggling\ It's "rojo"."
/James\: "Oh."
/Toby\: "And I know what "brown" is in Spanish, It's "marrón", right?"
/Latino\: "Si, exactamente."
Thomas and Percy again liked puzzled.
/Latino\: "That means "yes, exactly"."
/Thomas & Percy\: "Oh."
/Latino\: "You know, I can teach you some Spanish one day."
/Thomas\: "That'll be splendid, thank you."
Latino smiled grandly.
Just then, a Smurf came up to Thomas. And he was wearing a train driver hat.
Thomas took a good look that the Smurf. Then the #1 engine took a guess.
/Thomas\: "Are you Dreamy?"
/Dreamy\: "Right you are, Thomas."
Thomas was delighted.
/Thomas\: "At last, we finally met. And Lazy told me a lot about you."
/Dreamy\: "And Lazy smurfed me a lot about you too."
/Thomas\: "And we have a lot in common."
/Dreamy\: "We sure do, Thomas. We sure do."
Thomas smiled grandly.
And Dreamy just had to smile grandly also.
Just then, Handy and a Smurf came up to Edward.
/Handy\: "Edward, there's somesmurf that really wants to smurf you."
Edward looked at the Smurf. The Smurf has winged heart tattoos on both arms. And he wears a black strip around his pants. The #2 engine already figured it out.
/Edward\: "You must be Weakling."
/Willing\: "I used to be. Now my new name is Willing."
/Edward\: "Oh. Well then, Handy told me so much about you."
/Willing\: "And Handy smurrfed me so much about you too. And we have a lot in common."
/Edward\: "We certainly do, Willing. We certainly do."
Willing smiled his brightest smile.
And Edward smiled his brightest smile also.
Just then, Painter and Sassette came up to Henry with a Smurf and a Smurfling.
/Painter\: "Monsieur Henry, zhere zomesmurf zhat want to smurf you."
/Sassette\: "Not one, but two."
Henry looked at the Smurf and Smurfling. The Smurf has a red feather on his hat. And the Smurfling was wearing a "country bumpkin" type Smurf hat and a pair of brown ragged pants held up by a single suspender around his left shoulder. The #3 engine already figured it out also.
/Henry\: "You must be Nat. And you must be Tracker."
/Tracker\: "That's right."
/Nat\: "You smurfed it. Painter and Sassette smurfed me and Tracker a lot about you."
/Henry\: "And Painter and Sassette told me a lot about you two too. And we three have a lot in common."
/Nat\: "We smurftainly do, Henry."
/Tracker\: "We smurftainly do."
Henry smiled from buffer to buffer.
And Nat and Tracker both smiled from cheek to cheek.
Just then, Hefty came up to Gordon with a Smurf.
/Hefty\: "/SIGH\ Gordon, there's somesmurf that had been smurfing to smurf you."
Gordon looked at the Smurf. The Smurf has an anchor tattoo with a barbell on it, and it's on his right chest. And he was wearing a belt around his pants. The #4 engine already know who the Smurf is and he groaned.
/Gordon\: "/GROAN\ I suppose that you must be Tuffy."
/Tuffy\: "You smurf that right, Gordon."
/Gordon\: "Well, Hefty told me only a little about you."
/Tuffy\: "And Hefty smurfed me a little about you too."
/Gordon\: "But one thing for sure, we don't have a lot in common, and I don't act anything like you."
/Tuffy\: "Aw, come on. I bet you can act tough once."
/Gordon\: "Didn't Hefty tell you? I can't act tough, and I'm not suppose to."
Tuffy felt disappointed.
/Gordon\: "Look, the only thing that I can act is being me, Gordon, strongest, fastest and the best."
/Tuffy\: "Hey, I'm strong too!"
/Gordon\: "/Sarcastically\ Of course you are."
/Tuffy\: "I am, really! And I can prove it to you right now!"
Tuffy began to left up Hefty. But as he tried, he couldn't be able to.
/Hefty\: "/SIGH\"
/Gordon\: "/MOAN\"
/Tuffy\: "Wait, that's just a warm-up! Now here's the real deal!"
Tuffy once again began to lift Hefty up.
/Tuffy\: "/Grunting\"
But then, Tuffy finally lifted Hefty up.
Gordon was surprised.
But suddenly, Tuffy couldn't hold up Hefty for long and he collapsed.
/Tuffy\: "Whoa!"
/Hefty\: "Oofah!"
/Tuffy\: "You see? I am strong!"
/Hefty\: "/Sarcastically\ Yeah, sure you are."
Gordon had seen enough.
/Gordon\: "Oh, the indignity."
Hefty got off of Tuffy. And Tuffy got himself up.
/Gordon\: "Alright, you may be strong, but just a little."
/Tuffy\: "JUST A LITTLE? WHY, I CAN SMURF UP THREE SMURFS, AND I CAN PROVE IT TO YOU SOMEDAY!"
/Gordon\: "/SIGH\ If you puff so."
/Hefty\: "Oh, Tuffy."
/James\: "Excuse me. You're Tuffy?"
/Tuffy\: "Yeah, I'm Tuffy."
/James\: "So you're the one that puffed me a red monster!"
/Tuffy\: "/GASP\ So, Grouchy smurfed you that I smurfed you a red monster, huh?"
/Grouchy\: "And I'm glad that I smurfed James that!"
/James\: "You puff it, Grouchy! And Tuffy, you think you're tough? Rubbish!"
/Tuffy\: "RUBBISH? HEY, I AM TOUGH! "I'M THE ROUGHEST AND TOUGHEST SMURF OF ALL TIME!"
/James\: "PAH! YOU'RE NOTHING BUT AN OLDFANGLED NONSENSE!"
/Tuffy\: "IS THAT AN INSULT?"
/James\: "YES!"
Tuffy's face went red as a ladybug.
/Tuffy\: "THAT'S IT! I'M TEACH YOU! SMURF THEM UP!"
/James\: "HA! I DON'T HAVE HANDS! I HAVE BUFFERS!"
/Tuffy\: "I DON'T CARE! COME ON, SMURF THEM UP!"
Grouchy and James looked at each other and they grinned.
/James\: "ALRIGHT TUFFY, YOU ASKED FOR IT!"
And James released a big cloud of steam straight at Tuffy!
/James\: "WHOOOOOOSH!"
/Tuffy\: "WHAT THE SMURF? AAAAH!"
Everyone was very shocked.
And Tuffy found himself surrounded in a big cloud of steam for 10 seconds.
But then, James stopped wheeshing steam.
As the steam cleared, everyone could see that Tuffy was still standing. But he was wobbling and felt very dizzy with his eyes spinning round and round. Then suddenly, Tuffy collapsed by landing on his back.
/Tuffy\: "/THROP!\ Ohhhh, now that was some smurf."
Grouchy was pleased with James.
/Grouchy\: "Now that's what I LOVE to smurf!"
James grinned with his eyes still scrunched.
Hefty went up to Tuffy and he helped getting the tough Smurf up.
Tuffy recovered and he slowly raised himself up. He closed his eyes, placed his right hand on his forehead and he shook the dizziness away. And then, Tuffy stopped and he felt better. But then, the wannabe Smurf scrunched his eyes down and looked very furious with his teeth grudged..
/Vanity\: "Don't ever smurf with James, Tuffy."
/Grouchy\: "Unless you want some more."
/Hefty\: "Yeah, you better smurf it, Tuffy."
James glared crossly at Tuffy.
And after seeing that, Tuffy did nothing else and he felt defeated.
Then Hefty moved Tuffy away from James.
/Tuffy\: "/Muttering angrily\"
/James\: "/Speaking softly\ No good blue bunch of rubbish."
Just then, some Smurfs went up to James and they were looking at him. And they could see that the #5 engine was looking very cross. And they were afraid to talk to James. But little did some of the Smurfs didn't know, is that James was pretending to be cross, and he want to act just like Grouchy.
Suddenly, Sweepy came up to James.
/Sweepy\: "Hello, James. Nice to smurf you, mate."
James looked at Sweepy. And then, he screamed.
/James\: "AHH! A dirty object! Keep away from me!"
Sweepy was surprisingly shocked.
Then Miner stepped in.
/Miner\: "Smurf and begorrah, what's smurfing on here?"
/James\: "AHH! Another dirty object! Keep away from me also!"
Miner was surprisingly shocked also.
/Sweepy\: "Hey, me and Miner aren't that dirty!"
/Miner\: "Yeah, what's wrong with you?"
/James\: "I don't like dirty objects! Please, just stay away from me!"
Sweepy and Miner felt hurt.
/Vanity\: "Sweepy, Miner, you both know that James is a very sensible Engine."
/Grouchy\: "And he hates getting his red paint dirty!"
/Vanity\: "And he likes to keep himsmurf nice, clean, and smurfy."
/Sweepy\: "Aw, come on! I bet James gets himsmurf dirty all the time!"
/Miner\: "Yeah!"
James' face went pink like Vanity's flower.
/Miner\: "A-ha! I can smurf by the look of your face, James!"
/Sweepy\: "You DO always get yoursmurf dirty all the time!"
James said nothing else.
/Vanity\: "Sweepy, Miner, I think it's time for you two to smurf away."
/Grouchy\: "Yeah! And I HATE smurfing James feeling embarrassed!"
Sweepy And Miner huffed and they both walked away.
/Sweepy & Miner\: "Hmmph!
And James, Grouchy, and Vanity looked at each other and they grinned secretly.
Just then, Jokey and a Smurf with him came up to Percy.
/Jokey\: "Percy, there's somesmurf that want to smurf you."
Percy looked at the Smurf. The Smurf has a trumpet in his hand. The #6 engine looked puzzled.
/Percy\: "Who are you?"
/Harmony\: "I'm Harmony."
/Percy\: "Oh, so you're Harmony. Jokey told me so much about you."
/Harmony\: "And Jokey smurfed me so much about you too. And we have a lot in common."
/Percy\: "Indeed we do, Harmony. Indeed we do."
Harmony smiled joyfully.
And Percy smiled joyfully also.
Just then, Greedy, Snappy, a Smurf, and a Smurfling came up to Toby.
/Greedy\: "Oh Toby."
/Snappy\: "There's some Smurf and Smurfling who want to smurf you."
Toby took a good look at the Smurf and Smurfling. The Smurf was carrying a hoe with him. And the Smurfling was wearing a baggy red shirt and a pair of sneakers. The #7 engine already know who they are.
/Toby\: "You must be Farmer. And you must be Slouchy."
/Farmer\: "Yep, that's us."
/Slouchy\: "Greedy and Snappy smurfed us a lot about you, Toby."
/Toby\: "And those two told me a lot about you two too. And we have a lot in common."
/Slouchy\: "We absosmurfly do, Toby."
/Farmer\: "We absosmurfly do."
Toby happily smiled.
And Farmer and Slouchy happily smiled also.
Just then, some Smurfs were looking at Emily. They were all amazed, and they think that the non-numbered engine was very beautiful.
/Some Smurfs\: "Ooh! Aah!"
Emily was puzzled.
/Emily\: "Why are they looking at me like that, Smurfette?"
/Smurfette\: "I don't know, Emily."
Smurfette was puzzled also.
/Smurfette\: "Hey, you Smurfs! Why are you all smurfing at Emily like that?"
/Dabbler\: "Oh, sorry Smurfette."
/Weepy\: "It's just that Emily is so beautiful! /Crying\"
/Emily\: "Oh my, what's wrong with you?"
/Weepy\: "/Crying\ There's nothing wrong with me! It's a permanent condition! /Crying\"
/Emily\: "What? You mean you've been crying ever since you were born?"
/Weepy\: "Yes! /Crying\"
/Emily\: "Oh. Well anyway, what's your name?"
/Weepy\: "It's Weepy! /Blowing nose\"
/Emily\: "Well Weepy, I see why you're named after that personality."
/Weepy\: "I can smurf that too. /Crying\"
Emily felt sorry for Weepy. Just then, she saw something. It's another Smurf. The Smurf was hiding behind another Smurf, and he was trembling with fear.
Emily was curious.
/Emily\: "Smurfette, who's that Smurf hiding behind that other Smurf."
/Smurfette\: "Oh, that's Scaredy, And yes, he's a scaredy-smurf and he gets scare of everything."
/Emily\: "Oh, dear. Hmm. Can you bring him here, please?"
/Emily\: "I'll try."
Smurfette walked through a crowd of Smurfs. And then, she came up to Scaredy.
/Smurfette\: "Hello, Scaredy."
/Scaredy\: "H-H-H-Hello, S-S-S-Smurfette."
/Smurfette\: "Are you scare to smurf Emily?"
/Scaredy\: "Y-Y-Y-Yes."
/Smurfette\: "Well, Emily wants to smurf you."
/Scaredy\: "She does?"
/Smurfette\: "Yes. And there's nothing to be afraid of."
/Scaredy\: "Oh, ok."
Scaredy hold onto Smurfette's hand. And together, they both walked through the crowd of Smurfs, and they came up to Emily.
Scaredy didn't feel scare anymore.
/Scaredy\: "Nice to smurf you, Emily."
/Emily\: "And it's nice to "smurf" you too, Scaredy."
/Scaredy\: "Boy, Emily. You really are beautiful."
/Emily\: "Why, thank you, Scaredy."
But suddenly, Emily burst out some steam with a loud hiss.
/Emily\: "/Steam wheeshing with a loud hiss\"
That made Scaredy jumped.
/Scaredy\: "AAH!"
The fearful Smurf hide behind Smurfette.
/Smurfette\: "Relax, Scaredy. It's just some steam smurfing out of Emily."
/Scaredy\: "S-S-S-Steam?"
/Emily\: "Yes, we steam locomotives do that all the time."
/Scaredy\: "Oh, well, ok."
Scaredy unhide himself from Smurfette.
Just then, Emily saw another Smurf. The Smurf was wearing a scarf, earmuffs, and mittens. And he looked very ill.
/Sickly\: "A-CHOO!"
/Emily\: "Smurfette, who's that Smurf?"
/Smurfette\: "That's Sickly."
/Emily\: "And let me guess, he's a sick Smurf with a permanent condition."
/Smurfette\: "Yes. And he also gets allergic to everything."
/Emily\: "Oh. Poor Sickly."
Sickly let out the biggest sneeze of all.
/Sickly\: "A-A-A-A-CHOO!"
/Emily\: "Bless you, Sickly."
/Sickly\: "Oh. /SNIFFLE\ Thank you, Emily."
Emily just smiled.
Just then, Thomas saw two more Smurfs. These Smurfs each were wearing old English Smurf hats. But, they each have different charm medals. Thomas was curious.
Suddenly, the two Smurfs could see Thomas staring at them. The little blue tank engine smiled. Then the two Smurfs smiled back. And they both know what Thomas wants. So the two Smurfs came up to Thomas.
/Christopher & Marco\: "Hello, Thomas."
/Thomas\: "Umm, hello. Who are you two?"
/Christopher\: "I'm Christopher."
/Marco\: "I'm Marco."
/Christopher & Marco\: "And we're the British twin Smurfs. High smurf! HA-HA-HA-HA!"
/Thomas\: "Ohh, so you're twins! We have some friends who are twins too."
/Christopher\: "We know. We read it from the book that Brainy smurfblished."
/Marco\: "Are they Donald and Douglas, and Bill and Ben?"
/Thomas\: "Yes, you got it."
/Christopher\: "Smurfy. And I always wanted to smurf Donald."
/Marco\: "Same thing for me about Douglas."
/Thomas\: "Well, maybe you two could meet them once we Engines return to Sodor."
/Christopher\: "Really? Oh, that'll be smurfy!"
/Marco\: "Thank you, Thomas!"
Thomas beamed happily.
Just then, the Steam Team noticed something. They all saw two more Smurfs. But these Smurfs were not real. They were all made out of wood. One of the Engines looked puzzled.
/Edward\: "Handy?"
/Handy\: "What is it, Edward?"
/Edward\: "Those two Smurfs, they look strange."
/Handy\: "Oh. Well, the reason why they look strange, is because they're not real Smurfs."
/Thomas\: "What? They're not real?"
/Percy\: "Then who are they?"
/Handy\: "Engines, these are the Clockworks, Clockwork Smurf and Clockwork Smurfette. And they're wooden robots."
/Clockwork Smurf & Clockwork Smurfette\: "/In robot talk\ Hi!"
/Henry\: "Ooh, two Smurfs made out of wood? Amazing."
/Toby\: "Looks like that I'm not the only one made out of wood. /Chuckling\"
/Handy\: "And that's not all, the Clockworks are insmurfdibly strong, and they can smurf up the heaviest things, even a person."
/The Steam Team\: "Oooh!"
/Gordon\: "PAH! I don't think the Clockworks are strong! They're made out of wood by the way!"
/Handy\: "Well Gordon, should I prove it to you then?"
/Gordon\: "Yes, please."
/Handy\: "Ok. Clockwork Smurf, smurf up Thomas."
/Thomas\: "WHAT?"
/Handy\: "Don't worry, Thomas. Clockwork Smurf knows exactly what he's smurfing."
/Thomas\: "Oh, alright."
Clockwork Smurf came up to Thomas. And in a flash, he lifted the #1 engine up in the air.
/Clockwork Smurf\: "/In robot talk\ Ta-da!"
The Steam Team were surprised.
/The Steam Team minus Thomas & Gordon\: "FLATTEN OUR FUNNEL!"
/Thomas\: "BUST MY BUFFERS!"
/Handy\: "Well Gordon, what do you had to smurf?"
Gordon couldn't say a word. He felt speechless.
/Thomas\: "Well, this is truly amazing. But, can he put me down now?"
/Handy\: "Ok, Thomas. Clockwork Smurf, if you please?"
Clockwork Smurf gently lower down Thomas.
/Thomas\: "Ooh. Thank you, Clockwork Smurf."
/Clockwork Smurf\: "/Speaking in robot language\"
Suddenly, one of the Smurfs saw something that caught his attention.
/Tailor\: "Hey, did anysmurf smurf that! Those metal things are glowing!"
Everyone was looking at what Tailor was pointing. And they all could see that the magic rails were indeed glowing.
/Some Smurfs\: "WOW!"
/Thomas\: "Oh! We forgot to tell you Smurfs, and the others already know this. We're magical Engines now, and we run on magic rails!"
/Pushover\: "Really? Amazing!"
/Percy\: "It is indeed."
Just then, James saw a familiar sight. There, in Nanny's arm, was Baby Smurf.
/Baby Smurf\: "/Cooing\"
James couldn't pretend to be cross for long, he smiled a cheerful smile and he called out to Baby Smurf.
/James\: "Baby Smurf!"
Baby Smurf saw James.
/Baby Smurf\: "/Babbling happily\"
/James\: "Vanity, can you please bring Baby Smurf to me?"
/Vanity\: "Yes, of course."
Vanity came up to Nanny.
/Vanity\: "Nanny, can I smurf Baby Smurf? James wants to smurf him."
/Nanny\: "Sure, Vanity."
Nanny handed Baby Smurf to Vanity. Then Vanity, along with Baby Smurf, turned and walked back to James.
As Vanity came up to James with Baby Smurf, the mid-size red tender engine was very pleased to see the infant Smurfling again.
/James\: "Hello, Baby Smurf."
/Baby Smurf\: "/Cooing\"
/James\: "Did you miss me?"
/Baby Smurf\: "Uh-huh."
/James\: "I miss you too. But I'm back now, and we're going to have so much fun together."
/Baby Smurf\: "/Babbling happily\"
James beamed cheerfully.
And Grouchy grinned a little grin.
Suddenly, Percy saw something. He could see a tower. And up of the tower, there was a nest. And in the nest, was a big bird. Percy was surprised.
/Percy\: "Rattle my rods! Smurfs, there's a bird up there!"
The other Engines could see the bird also.
/Toby\: "Whoa! Who's that big bird?"
/Papa\: "That's our friend, Feathers."
/Thomas\: "Feathers? Hmm, nice name for a bird."
/Percy\: "And what kind of bird is he?"
/Papa\: "It's a stork. And Feathers' not a he, it's a she."
/Percy\: "Ohhh."
Henry shouted and whistled to Feathers.
/Henry\: "/PEEP! PEEP!\ Hello, Feathers!"
And Feathers replied back.
/Feathers\: "SQUAWK!"
/Emily\: "Such a nice and lovely stork."
/Smurfette\: "She is indeed."
Suddenly, the Steam Team heard a sound.
/Puppy\: "/Barking\"
/Henry\: "You Smurfs also have a dog?"
/Nat\: "Actually, he's only a puppy."
The Steam Team could see Puppy coming up to them.
/Puppy\: "/Barking\"
Puppy stopped right in front of the Steam Team.
/Thomas\: "Awe. He's adorable."
/Percy\: "What's his name?"
/Nat\: "Puppy."
/Gordon\: "What? You Smurfs can't think of a name for this puppy?"
/Nat\: "No. We just named him "Puppy"."
/Gordon\: "/SCOFF\"
Puppy sniffed at the Steam Team.
/Puppy\: "/Sniffling\"
/Thomas\: "/Giggling\"
/Puppy\: "/Sniffling\"
/Edward\: "/Chuckling\"
/Puppy\: "/Sniffling\"
/Henry\: "Oh!"
/Puppy\: "/Sniffling\"
/Gordon\: "/GRUNT\"
/Puppy\: "/Sniffling\"
/James\: "Mind my paint work!"
/Puppy\: "/Sniffling\"
/Percy\: "Whoa!"
/Puppy\: "/Sniffling\"
/Toby\: "Ooh!"
/Puppy\: "/Sniffling\"
/Emily\: "Oh, my!"
/Thomas\: "Why is Puppy sniffling at us?"
/Nat\: "Just to make sure that you're friendly."
/Puppy\: "/Panting\ BARK! BARK!"
/Percy\: "What did Puppy puffed now?"
/Nat\: "Puppy smurfed that he now accepted you as his new friends."
/Edward\: "Well, we're glad to hear that."
/Puppy\: "ROFF!"
Just then, a small pink marsupial came up to the Steam Team. It was Smoogle.
/Smoogle\: "Smoogle-smoogle!"
/Henry\: "Hello, Smoogle!"
/Smoogle\: "Smoogle-smoogle-smoogle."
/Edward\: "Nat, what's Smoogle saying?"
/Nat\: "Smoogle smurfing that he's happy to smurf you Engines."
/Thomas\: "And we're happy to see you too, Smoogle."
/Smoogle\: "Smoogle-smoogle-smoogle."
/Nat\: "Smoogle also smurfed that he hoped that you all enjoy your stay at the village."
/Gordon\: "Oh, we will enjoy our stay here."
/Smoogle\: "Smoogle-smoogle-smoogle-smoogle."
/Nat\: "Smoogle smurfed that he's glad to smurf that."
/Emily\: "/Giggling\ We know he will said that."
After some Smurfs get acquainted with the Steam Team, the rest of the Smurfs introduced themselves to the eight Engines. And now, everyone had finally know each other. Well, except for one group of Smurfs.
Just then, Architect and a group of 10 Smurfs came up to the other Smurfs and the Steam Team.
/Architect\: "Ok Willing, we're all done. Oh, welcome back, Papa Smurf, Grandpa Smurf, and you other Smurfs. And hello, Engines."
/Thomas\: "Hello. Who are you, and what do you do?"
/Architect\: "I'm Architect, and I desmurf the structures for the Smurfs in the village."
/Thomas\: "Oh. So, you puffed that you're done with something, what is it?"
/Architect\: "Oh, we smurfed something for you Engines. Follow me."
So the Steam Team and some Smurfs all followed Architect. They're all heading towards the northwest.
/Willing\: "Umm, would you Engines please smurf your eyes?"
/James\: "Why?"
/Willing\: "Because, we want to surprise you."
/Thomas\: "Alright Willing, we'll close our eyes."
So the Steam Team all closed their eyes.
But Percy was being cheeky and he opened one of his eyes.
/Jokey\: "Uh-uh-uh, no smurfing, Percy."
/Percy\: "Oh, bother!"
/Willing\: "Keep your eyes smurfed, Engines."
/Gordon\: "We are!"
/Hefty\: "Eesh, relax, Gordon."
/Architect\: "Hold on, we're nearly there."
At last, the Steam Team and some Smurfs arrived at the northwest part of the village.
/Willing\: "Engines, stop!"
/The Steam Team\: "/Brakes screeching\"
/Willing\: "Ok, you can opened your eyes now."
As the Steam Team opened their eyes, they all gasped.
/The Steam Team\: "/Gasping\"
There, right in front of the Steam Team and some Smurfs, was a newly built roundhouse.
/Thomas\: "Cinders and ashes, you Smurfs built a roundhouse!"
/Percy\: "With a eight-berth sheds!"
/Toby\: "And complete with a turntable!"
/Edward\: "And I bet it's for us Engines to sleep in!"
/Willing\: "Yep, you got it, Edward."
/Henry\: And the sheds, what are they made of?"
/Handy\: "They're made of mushroom, Henry."
/Percy\: "What's a mushroom, Handy?"
/Handy\: "A mushroom is a plant, also known as a fungus."
/Percy\: "Oh."
/Hefty\: "In fact, our houses are made of mushroom too."
/Gordon\: "Yes, we can see that."
/Emily\: "Oh, thank you, Willing. This is indeed a wonderful surprise."
/Willing\: "You're welcome, Emily."
But then, Willing saw something that made him puzzled. He could see that James was looking unhappy.
/Willing\: "What's wrong, James? Do you like your new temporary shed?"
/James\: "Well, just a little."
/Willing\: "Then why are you unhappy?"
/James\: "It just that, there's some things missing in that roundhouse."
/Willing\: "Like what?"
/James\: "A coaling depot."
/Willing\: "What's a coaling depot?"
/James\: "A coaling depot is a structure and machine where you store coal."
/Willing\: "Oh. Is that important to you Engines?"
/James\: "Yes, we need that to get some coal."
/Henry\: "Speaking of coal, where can we get some?"
/Miner\: "Why, you Engines can smurf some coal from my mine."
/Thomas\: "Splendid."
/Miner\: "Do you Engines need some coal now?"
/Gordon\: "Not really. But we'll be out of it soon."
/Miner\: "Oh, ok."
/Willing\: "And what else is missing to you Engines?"
/James\: "A water tower."
/Handy\: "Oh, there's no need to smurf a water tower. You Engines can smurf some water from our well."
/Edward\: "You Smurfs have a well?"
/Handy\: "Yeah, it's at the other side of the village."
/Edward\: "Oh, alright."
/Handy\: "Ok, so we're going to smurf a coaling smurfer."
/Thomas\: "/Giggling\ Is that your version of the coaling depot?"
/Handy\: "Yes, Thomas. Now, I need eight Smurfs to smurf that work. Who will smurf me?"
Eight Smurfs had raised their arms.
/Handy\: "Ok, you eight will do. And I need you Clockworks to help too. With your speed and strength, we will finish it in no time."
/The Clockworks\: "/Speaking in robot language\"
/Willing\: "Hey, do you need me to help you, Handy."
/Handy\: "No Willing, you can smurf some rest."
/Willing\: "Oh, well, ok."
/Handy\: "Architect, I need you to design the coaling smurfer."
/Architect\: "Ok, Handy. And I'll get smurfing right away."
Architect turned and he headed towards his house.
/Papa\: "Now then, are you Engines tired?"
/Thomas\: "No, not really, Papa Smurf."
/Papa\: "Oh ok, just to make sure."
But just then, Papa saw something that made him smile. He was looking at his little Smurfs and the Steam Team. They were all happy to be with each other. Then the leader Smurf had an idea.
/Papa\: "Ah. Attention, my little Smurfs, Engines, I have something to smurf."
/Some Smurfs & the Steam Team\: "What is it, Papa Smurf?"
/Papa\: "After I took a smurf at you all, I can smurf that you all are very happy to be with each other."
/Dreamy\: "Oh yes, Papa Smurf."
/Thomas\: "We sure are."
/Papa\: "Indeed. And I have an idea that is very smurfy."
/James\: "What?"
/Papa\: "You Engines should choose which ever Smurf or Smurfs who wants to be your partner."
Some of the Smurfs and the Steam Team were delighted.
/Thomas\: "Why, that's the most "smurfy" idea ever, Papa Smurf!"
/Dreamy\: "It is indeed."
/Papa\: "/Chuckling\ I knew you all would like that idea. So Thomas, who do you choose to be partners with you?"
/Thomas\: "I choose Dreamy to be my partner."
/Dreamy\: "Oh, Thomas, I'm so smurfed."
/Snappy\: "Oh Thomas, can I be partners with you? Please, smurfy please?"
/Thomas\: "/Giggling\ Of course you can, Snappy."
Snappy was delighted.
/Snappy\: "Smurf-a-roo!"
/Thomas\: "But just now we're partners, doesn't mean that I'll become snappy like you."
/Snappy\: "Oh, right. /Chuckling sheepishly\"
/Papa\: "Hah. Edward, did you choose some Smurfs who wants to be partners with you?"
/Edward\: "I sure do, Papa Smurf. I choose Handy and Willing."
/Handy\: "Smurfy choice, Edward."
/Willing\: "We'll be smurfy partners."
/Papa\: "What about you, Henry?"
/Henry\: "I choose Nat and Tracker to be partners with me."
/Nat\: "Awe, thank you, Henry."
/Tracker\: "You made the right choice."
/Papa\: "And you Gordon?"
/Gordon\: "I already choose who I want to be partners with. It's Hefty."
/Hefty\: "Yes."
But then, Gordon looked at Tuffy. He could see that the tough Smurf was pacing a very sad face right at him.
/Gordon\: "/SIGH\ And I choose Tuffy\"
Tuffy was delighted.
/Tuffy\: "Yeah, whoo-hoo!"
/Gordon\: "Oh, the indignity."
/Hefty\: "/MOAN\"
/Papa\: "Oh, my. James, who do you choose to be partners with you?"
/James\: "I think you know who my partners are, Papa Smurf."
/Papa\: "Ah, it's Grouchy and Vanity, right?"
/James\: "Righto."
/Vanity\: "I'm honored to be partners with you, James."
/Grouchy\: "I HATE not being partners with James!"
James just had to giggle.
/James\: "/Giggling\"
/Papa\: "/Giggling\ Now Percy, did you choose which Smurfs who want's to be partners with you?"
/Percy\: "I did, Papa Smurf. I choose Harmony and Jokey."
/Harmony\: "Oh, thank you, Percy! I'm so happy that I can blow my trumpet! /Playing trumpet off-key\"
Everyone covered their ears, except for the Steam Team.
/Percy\: "WHOA!"
Jokey took away Harmony's trumpet.
/Harmony\: "/Sound of trumpet playing stops\"
/Jokey\: "Please, that's enough!"
Everyone uncovered their ears.
/Percy\: "Funnels and fenders, that's so loud!"
/Jokey\: "Smurf me about it."
/Harmony\: "Alright, alright! Please smurf me my trumpet!"
Jokey give the trumpet back to Harmony.
/Harmony\: "Thank you. Hmmph!"
/Papa\: "/SIGH\ How about you, Toby?"
/Toby\: "Well, Papa Smurf. I choose Farmer and Slouchy."
/Farmer\: "Yep, Toby. We make quite a pair."
/Slouchy\: "And we can go with the flow."
/Papa\: "Mm-hmm. And you Emily?"
/Emily\: "I think you know who my partners are, Papa Smurf."
/Papa\: "Ah yes, Sassette and Smurfette."
/Emily\: "That's right!"
/Smurfette\: "Oh, yes!"
/Sassette\: "Girl power!"
/Papa\: "Ok, so that settles it."
The Steam Team and their Smurf partners all smiled grandly.
/Brainy\: "Can you believe it, Clumsy? We're not partners with one of the Engines."
/Clumsy\: "Oh, don't get too upset, Brainy. Why, I'll be your partner."
/Brainy\: "Only one problem, Clumsy. You're not an Engine!"
/Clumsy\: "Ohh, sorry, Brainy. At least I tried to make you happy."
/Brainy\: "/Sarcastically\ Yeah, at least you tried."
/Clumsy\: "But you know, Brainy? I already know one Engine that I would like to be partners with."
/Brainy\: "Really, who?"
/Clumsy\: "Duck."
/Brainy\: "Oh. But now that you mention it, I already know one Engine that I would like to be partners with too."
/Clumsy\: "Gosh, Brainy, who?"
/Brainy\: "Oliver."
/Clumsy\: "Oh."
/Christopher\: "And we already know two Engines that me and Marco would like to be partners with also."
/Brainy & Clumsy\: "Who?"
/Christopher\: "Donald."
/Marco\: "And Douglas."
/Brainy & Clumsy\: "Oh."
/Christopher\: "Yes. Donald."
/Marco\: "And Douglas."
/Clumsy\: "Hah. Duck."
/Brainy\: "And Oliver."
And the four Smurfs sighed.
/Brainy, Clumsy, Christopher, & Marco\: "/BIG SIGH\"
/Brainy\: "OH! I almost forgot! Harmony, gather all the Smurfs to the village center."
/Harmony\: "Why?"
/Brainy\: "Because I have something important to smurf."
/Harmony\: "Is it one of your lectures?"
/Brainy\: "No, not this time. It's more important than that."
/Harmony\: "Oh. Alright. /Playing trumpet\ /Shouting\ Attention, would all Smurfs please resmurf to the village center, Brainy has a very important announcement to smurf."
/Tuffy\: "/MOAN\ I bet Brainy is smurfing out one of his lectures again."
/Hefty\: "But still, we have to go see what Brainy has to smurf."
So all the Smurfs(Except Architect) headed towards the village center.
But the Steam Team were all puzzled.
Papa could see that.
/Papa\: "You Engines can go if you want to."
/Thomas\: "Oh, alright. Come on, everyone. Let's go."
So the Steam Team followed the Smurfs to the village center.
When the eight Engines and all the Smurfs(Except Architect) were gathered at the village center, Brainy can finally make his announcement. But the Smurfs were all looking very unhappy.
Brainy could see that.
/Brainy\: "Ok, I know what you all were thinking, but this time, I'm not smurfing out lectures."
/Wooly\: "Ok then, so what are you going to smurf this time?"
/Brainy\: "I'm glad you smurfed, Wooly. /Clearing throat\ I want all of you to resmurf the books about the Island of Sodor to the Editor's house."
/Editor\: "What?"
/Reporter\: "But why?"
/Brainy\: "Because, since the 16 of us resmurfed to the island, things had smurfed when we got there."
/Reporter\: "Oh. Really?"
/Editor\: "Like what?"
/Brainy\: "Well, an old town has been discovered and added onto the map of Sodor. Some new Engines had arrived in the island. And some old friends of Thomas had resmurf to the island, including the return of the #8 and #11 Engines."
/Editor\: "Oh, wow!"
/Reporter\: "So, who discovered this old town?"
/Thomas\: "I did."
/Reporter\: "You, Thomas? Wow! Please smurf me about the day you discovered this old town. And smurf me about the new Engines that arrived in the island and your old friends that resmurf to the island."
/Thomas\: "Maybe later, Reporter."
/Reporter\: "Oh, ok."
/Brainy\: "Ok, I need you two, Painter and Poet to help me resmurfblish the book, and we'll do it first thing tomorrow."
/Editor, Reporter, Painter, & Poet\: "Ok, Brainy."
/Brainy\: "So please, I want all of you to resmurf the books to Editor's house right now."
/Papa\: "No need for that, Brainy. I'll use a disappearing formula to get rid of the books."
/Brainy\: "Oh, right. And after you get your books, go smurf Papa Smurf. That is all."
After the announcement was over, the Smurfs all went to their houses, and they collected their books. And Brainy picked up the last one from Architect, who was busy designing the coaling depot.
Then the Smurfs all went to Papa's house.
/Papa\: "Please form a single line."
So the Smurfs formed a single line.
And in no time, Papa began using his disappearing formula to get rid of the books.
The Steam Team were watching as the line of Smurfs keeps on moving and moving.
/Thomas\: "Wobbling Wheels, look at them go!"
/Percy\: "It's a shame to see all those books disappear."
/Toby\: "Don't be worried, Percy. Brainy and some Smurfs will make a new book."
/Henry\: "Besides, the Smurfs have the right to know about the changes from Sodor."
/Gordon\: "They do indeed."
/Edward\: "And I'm sure that the updated book will be a success."
/James\: "And I know that they'll still be looking at my really splendid self."
/Emily\: "James, give it a rest."
That made James cross and he said nothing else.
And at long last, Papa disappeared the very last book.
/Papa\: "There, that should do it."
After that was settled, the Smurfs came up to the Steam Team.
/Dreamy\: "Thomas, me and Snappy are going to do some things on the S. S. Smurf II. You wanna smurf?"
/Thomas\: "What's the S. S. Smurf II?"
/Snappy\: "It's Dreamy's sailing ship."
/Thomas\: "Whoa, I didn't know you had a ship. And yes, I'll come along."
/Dreamy\: "Smurfy, let's smurf! And I'll smurf you where to smurf."
/Thomas\: "Alright."
Dreamy and Snappy boarded Thomas. And then, the little blue tank engine chuffed off to the ship with the two Smurfs aboard.
/Handy\: "Edward, I'm going to check the dam. Wanna smurf?"
/Edward\: "You Smurfs have a dam? Wow! And of course I'll go with you."
/Willing\: "I'm smurfing too. In case you need some help."
/Handy\: "Smurfy, let's smurf!"
/Edward\: "But, you need to tell me where to go first."
/Handy\: "No problem, I'll do that."
Handy and Willing boarded Edward. And then, the mid-size blue tender engine, with the two Smurfs aboard him, chuffed off to the dam.
/Nat\: "Henry, me and Tracker are going to the Great Oak Tree. Want to smurf?"

/Papa\: "Ah. Isn't that smurfy, Grandpa?"
/Grandpa\: "It sure is, Papa."
/Nanny\: "Those whipper-smurfers are going to have a smurfly time now that the Engines are in our village."
/Papa\: "Yes, Nanny. And the more my little Smurfs gets to smurf some time with the Engines, the more they'll smurf closer and closer."
/Grandpa\: "Yeah, and that's the smurfiest thing of all."
/Nanny\: "You smurf it, Grampers."
/Papa\: "/YAWN\ Well, I'm smurfing to smurf a little nap."

/Papa & Grandpa\: "Smurf ya later, Nanny."
/Grandpa\: "Later, Papa."
/Papa\: "Later, Grandpa."

And as for the young Smurfs, they were finished doing their chores and they can now do whatever they want.
And for the Smurfs who are partners with the Steam Team, their day were now getting started, and they will indeed were going to have a splendid day spending some time together.
