Thomas Percy & The Coal

It was a beautiful día on the Island Of Sodor. Thomas The Tank Engine's smart blue paint shone in the sunshine. He arrived at a station, and saw Percy, and Sean.

"Hello Thomas." Called Percy, "You look splendid."

"Yes indeed." Boasted Thomas, "Blue is the only color for an engine."

"I've got some blue, but most of my paint is grey." dicho Sean.

"I like my green paint," Percy replied, "I wouldn't want to be any other color."

"Well, well anyway," Huffed Thomas, "Blue is the only color for a really useful engine. Everyone knows that." And he puffed away importantly. Percy, and Sean just smiled.

Later that day, Percy was shunting some freight cars under a coal chute. Thomas was por him resting.

"Careful," called Thomas cheekily, "Those freight cars could be troublesome."

"Go on, go on" Shouted the freight cars, and pushed Percy.

"And por the way," Called Thomas, "Those buffers don't look seguro to me."

But it was too late. Percy ran into the buffer, and went off the tracks. The last load of coal poured from the chute, and onto Thomas.

"Help, help!" Called Thomas. His smart blue paint was getting ruined por the coal dust. "Get me out!"

Percy was worried, but he couldn't stop laughing when he saw Thomas' paint being ruined.

"Ha, ha!" Chuckled Percy, "You don't look really useful now Thomas. tu look disgraceful."

"I'm not disgraceful!" Spluttered Thomas, "You did that on purpose. Get me out!"

It took so long to clean Thomas, that he wasn't in time for his siguiente train. Rosie had to take Annie, and Clarabel for him. The two coaches were most upset.

Thomas was grumpy at the sheds that night. Sean thought it was a great joke, but Percy was mad at Thomas, for thinking he caused the accident on purpose.

"Fancy, a really useful blue engine becoming a disgrace to Sir Tophamm Hat's railway." dicho Percy.

siguiente morning, Thomas was feeling happy. He saw Percy struggling with a heavy load of freight cars, and he was feeling tired.

"Have a drink," dicho his driver. The water tower was siguiente to a siding, where it ended with unsafe buffers. Percy went to the siding, but the freight cars prevented him from stopping.

"Oh!" Called Percy, as he was being pushed, "Help!"

Percy let off a lot of steam when he got derailed. His wheels were buried deep in coal. It was time for Thomas to go, and he left laughing at what happened to Percy.

That night, the two engines made up their quarrel.

"I didn't cause your accident on purpose Thomas. tu do know that, don't you?"

"Of course," Chuckled Thomas, "And I'm sorry about what I dicho yesterday. Your green paint looks splendid."

They also learned to be más careful with coal.

2007 was the beginning of another transitional period in my life. My parents had thought about getting a condo unit in Manila, since we tend to go there más often now. Prior to this, we would usually stay in a hotel overnight when it is already too late to travel back to Laguna o when my father is too tired to drive. We aimed at two convenient locations for our search: Makati City and BGC, o Bonifacio Global City. Also, because of this, we only had one trip during the course of the year. We went back to Indonesia in June. Unfortunately, on the segundo día of this trip, I contracted tonsillitis....

I was taken to the hospital again por the time 2006 rolled in. This time, it was not because I was sick. It was because I was mostrando signs of a certain special condition. I would be very hyper and impatient, which drove my parents crazy. I was also quite slow when it comes to finishing my schoolwork. After the doctor allowed me to finish some puzzles to test my concentration, he diagnosed me with ADHD, o Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. He then told my parents to try enrolling me in Occupational Therapy classes, as he dicho that they could be very helpful in aiding my condition. They...

We now enter the año 2004. This año marked our first trip to Singapore, which is one of my favorito! countries. It was also during this time when I had just finished my Kindergarten. After my completion, the teacher held a meeting with my parents. She suggested to them that I be homeschooled instead when the siguiente school año comes around. She thought that it would be better that way since I wasn't interested in the group activities, and because I could also work independently with minimum help. At first, they were reluctant about the idea. But after a while, they agreed on it. My mother also...

The first half of 2003 was quite a dark period for me and my family. I started to have difficulty breathing and felt very sick. This caused my parents to become super worried, so they rushed me to a children's hospital. After the doctors examined my present state, they announced to my parents with a somewhat pessimistic tone, "Sir, ma'am, your daughter is suffering from a severe bout of asthma. Unless tu find a remedy right away, she might not be able to survive." However, that didn't stop them from trying to cure my illness. After leaving the hospital, we went to a nearby drugstore. There,...

The following year, 2001, my parents became very concerned about me because I had not been talking yet. I would speak in gibberish, but not in full sentences. Knowing that they had to do something about this, they enrolled me in a speech therapy school. To their surprise, after only one class, I was finally speaking properly and almost flawlessly! As a result, they decided to terminate the rest of my enrollment because they knew that I was just going to be bored. They were also quite amazed that I could speak English very fluently, even at a really young age. I also developed an interest in...

2000 was a bittersweet año for me. This period saw the birth of my sister and our moving to a new house. While my mother was pregnant with my sister, she explained to me that I will be having a sibling soon, and that I will be a big sister when she comes out. I was quite excited and nervous at the same time. When the big day, June 13, finally came, my father and I went to the same hospital where I was born to meet my newborn sister. My mother was still sleeping when we arrived. And just like that, I transitioned from being the only child to the eldest child in my family. Realizing that taking...

Before I begin, I would like to thank Peaceandlove67 for inspiring me to write this fan fiction.

If there is one word that I think best describes my childhood, I would have to say that it was colorful. There were some ups and downs, but en general, general it was a great one. Anyways, this is my story. I was born on December 3, 1998 in a small town called Los Banos, which is located in the province of Laguna, south of Luzon island in the Philippines. My parents were going on a road trip to Manila on the día of my birth. They were just about to enter the national highway when my mother suddenly began to...

The sun rose beneath the surface of the lake on what turned out to be the last día of the camping trip. Madison's aunt and uncle, Alexandria's parents, and Connor's parents got up as soon as they were awoken por the sunlight. While they were eating breakfast, they saw some rangers scouting the area. Madison's aunt asked, "Do tu think we should ask them to help us find the children?" "Okay, sure." Madison's uncle replied. The two then approached the rangers. "Excuse us for interrupting your patrol, but can tu please help us find our lost children? We've looked everywhere for them in the woods,...
