What if Emily had Edward's role in Edward's Exploit? Let's find out.
Episode 13
Emily's Exploit
The Island of Sodor was having the biggest amount of visitors that they ever had. It seemed as if every person in the world was there, and Sir Tophamm Hat needed to prepare a lot of passenger trains for them.
One day, Emily was getting ready to leave Knapford with her two coaches. They were full, and she found it hard to start. She blew her whistle, and her wheels slipped as she tried to pull her train.
"Duuh, did tu see her straining?" Asked Henry.
"Positively painful." Remarked James.
"Just pathetic." Grunted Gordon, "She should give up, and get scrapped before it's too late."
"Be quiet!" Burst out Duck, "You're all jealous. Emily is better than any of you."
"You're right Duck." Protested Boco. "Emily isn't the strongest engine, but she can get the job done."
"I've done it. We're off." dicho Emily as she slowly pulled out of the station, with her wheels still slipping. She had to take her train to Brendam Docks.
Bill, and Ben were delighted to see the visitors. They took them to the China Clay Works in a Break camioneta, van Special. Bill took one van, and Ben followed closely behind with another.
They arrived at the China Clay Works, and the passengers got out to look around. They had a good time. Then, they were returned to the Docks so that Emily could take them back to Knapford.
Shortly after Emily left the Docks with her train, the weather changed from a clear sunny day, to a dark rainy evening. The rain made the rails wet, and with a heavy train, Emily found it difficult to get any traction. Her wheels slipped dreadfully, her sander failed, and her driver had to drop the sand por hand, while riding on her side.
Then, with a shrieck, and a crack, something broke. Emily stopped, and quietly sobbed. No one noticed she was crying, as the crew inspected the damage. "One of your coupling rods broke Emily," dicho her driver, "We took them off, so now you're like an old fashioned engine. Can tu get these people home? They must start back tonight."
"I'll try sir," dicho Emily. Then she pulled, and puffed, and puffed, and pulled, but it was not easy to get enough power without her coupling rods being connected from the cylinders to the wheels. The passengers were anxious.
"I can't do it." dicho Emily sadly, as tears came out of her eyes.
"Don't worry." dicho her driver, "We'll loosen the couplings on your coaches. tu can pick them up one por one, just like tu do with freight cars."
"That'll be much easier." dicho Emily. So, the driver, fireman, and conductor loosened the couplings on her coaches.
"Come on!" Puffed Emily. Slowly, but surely, her train began to move, as the first coach helped the second. "I've done it! I've done it!" Puffed Emily.
"Steady girl." Warned her driver. "Well done girl, you've got them! You've got them." And he listened to his engine's steady beat back to Knapford.
Emily arrived at Knapford, tired, battered, but undefeated. Sir Tophamm Hat pointed angrily at the clock, but excited passengers cheered, and thanked Emily.
Duck, and Boco saw to it that Emily was no longer made fun of about her having difficulties starting with a heavy train. Gordon, and James remained respectfully silent, for at least one week when Emily was sent to the Steamworks to be repaired.
