It is now the next morning, and Caleb was given the news that Thomas's sister was almost here. He and a few other Steam Team engines and drivers went to the docks, except Thomas of course, they didn't tell him yet, they want to surprise him. Once they arrived, they saw the ship coming.
" I can't wait to meet her. " - Emily
" I hope she's not mean and cranky. " - Percy
" Hey. I can hear you. " - Cranky
" Not like you. " - Percy
Everyone watched as the ship got closer and soon stopped. Cranky used his hook and lifted the engine that was covered up onto the tracks on the docks. She was covered so that everyone could get a good reveal of her once she's uncovered.
Once she was put down. Two dock workers came and started removing the cloth.
" Here she is everyone. " - Caleb
The workers pulled of the cloth and out came Thomas's sister.
" Woah. " - Edward
They saw her and were stunned. Edward, Emily, and Caleb saw her on the laptop and it wasn't a good photo of her. But here, they could see her perfectly.
She looked at everyone looking at her and smiled nervously.
" Uh, hi. " - Thomas's sister
She did look exactly like Thomas. Same wheels, funnel, buffers, and tank. She was painted dark pink and had the number 71 on her side. She did also have some nice eyelashes.
" Hi there. My name is Caleb Mitchell. " - Caleb
" Are you the one who purchased me? " - sister
" Why yes dear. " - Caleb
" Wait. You bought her? " - Patrick
" Yes. I forget to tell you. Her railways controller said I could have her, so, I did take her. " - Caleb
" Wow. Thomas is going to love this. " - Henry
" Thank you very much for taking me. My previous home I didn't like at all. " - sister
" Why's that? " - Emily
" My two co workers were lazy and rude, and my controller was so cranky. " - sister
" Hey! " - Cranky
" Shhhh! " - All
" Anyways, I'm hoping to enjoy working here. " - sister
" You will. We have so many great engines and people here. " - Percy
" May I ask you what you're name is? " - Caleb
" My name's Emilia " - Emilia
" Emilia? " - Emily
" That sounds like your name Em. " - Ellie
" Yeah it does. " - Emily
Emilia's driver came out of her cab, and Patrick actually recognized her.
" Evelyn? " - Patrick
Emilia's driver looked over and saw him.
" Patrick? " - Evelyn
The two went up to each other and hugged.
" Um Patrick, who is this? " - Hailey
She looked a bit mad.
" Don't worry Hailey. This is Evelyn, my cousin. " - Patrick
" Your cousin? " - All
" Yeah. " - Patrick
" I never even knew we had one. " - Caleb
" That's because you never spent time with our uncle. " - Patrick
" I was busy all the time. " - Caleb
" Whatever. Anyways, Evelyn, it's great to see you. " - Patrick
" Me too. I know you and Tyler are in a band. " - Evelyn
" Yes we are. In fact, some of my bandmates are over there. " - Patrick
He pointed over where his friends, and they all waved. Ellie, Hailey, and Erik.
" Well I'm happy to be working here too. " - Evelyn
Everyone was getting settled until Edward had something to say.
" Hold on a second. " - Edward
Everyone stopped and looked at him.
" So Emilia. We should tell you why we wanted you to come here. " - Edward
" Why then? " - Emilia
" Do you remember any of your brothers? " - Emily
" Yeah. I know some brothers. " - Emilia
" Do you know one named Thomas? " - Edward
Emilia sat there and thought for a bit. Her mind wasn't so fond of Thomas.
" Thomas? " - Emilia
Then her mind started to come back and she remembers when she first saw Thomas when he was finished being built, but then she had to leave soon after that, and that was the first and last time she saw him.
" Oh yeah. Thomas. I only ever saw him one time. The day he was built. " - Emilia
Everyone was shocked.
" Do you miss him? " - Henry
" I mean, I never really remembered back then about him, but now that you mentioned, I really feel sad for leaving him. " - Emilia
" Well. Now you don't have to. " - Emily
" What do you mean? " - Emilia
" Cause he lives here. That's why we brought you here, so he could see you. " - Edward
Emilia was shocked and delighted.
" Really? He's here. Can I see him? " - Emilia
" Sure. He lives not too far from here. " - Emily
" He'll definitely gonna go crazy from seeing you. " - Percy
Emilia was very excited to actually truly meet her brother.
As the group were continuing to talk. Porter spotted Thomas coming towards the docks.
" Code blue. Code blue. " - Porter
Everyone heard and were confused.
" What? " - Patrick
" Thomas is coming. " - Porter
" Oh. Quick. Cover her back up. " - Caleb
" What? " - Emilia
" Sorry. We want him to be surprised. " - Edward
" Evelyn. You hide behind her. " - Patrick
" Okay then Patrick. " - Evelyn
She hid behind Emilia, and Emilia was covered back up.
Thomas soon arrived at the docks and saw his friends sitting there all quiet.
" Hi guys. What's going on here? " - Thomas
" Nothing. Just socializing. " - Percy
Thomas then looked and saw Emilia's covered up.
" Are you sure about that? " - Thomas
" Yes. " - Erik
" OK. Enough guys. " - Emily
" Thomas. We have something here for you. " - Edward
" What is it? " - Thomas
He was very intrigued and excited,
" Remember we you talked about your sister yesterday? " - Edward
" Yeah. I think I got over it, but it's still in my head. " - Thomas
Emilia heard and was sad, but also excited.
" Well then. Here you go. " - Edward
" Now. " - Caleb
The workers uncovered Emilia again and she was in the open again. Thomas looked and saw her and was stunned.
" Uh, is that? " - Thomas
" Yes Thomas. This is your long lost sibling. " - Emily
Thomas was so stunned he couldn't talk, he looked over at Emilia.
" Hi there. I'm Thomas. " - Thomas
" Hi Thomas. I'm Emilia. " - Emilia
" Emilia. " - Thomas
" It's great to finally really meet you. I feel so bad for leaving you when you were first built. " - Emilia
" Well. Now you're here. " - Thomas
" Yes. I am. " - Emilia
" And she's here to stay. " - Caleb
" What? " - Thomas
" Caleb purchased her, so now she'll be working here on Sodor. " - Edward
" Oh my god. I don't know what to say. " - Thomas
" Say something. - Percy
" Thank you guys so much. " - Thomas
" You're very welcome Thomas. We all want you to be happy. " - Edward
" Well I truly am now. " - Thomas
Tyler patted his cab.
" Congratulations buddy. " - Tyler
Evelyn came out from behind Emilia and Tyler saw her.
" Evelyn? " - Tyler
" Hi Tyler. " - Evelyn
" Really, you too? " - Caleb
Tyler shrugged and looked at Patrick,
" I'll explain later. " - Patrick
Thomas looked at his sister and she looked back. Thomas finally got to see her face and her name again.
" Wow. I can't believe this. " - Thomas
" Yeah. Me neither. " - Emilia
" Thomas. You should thank Emily and Edward. They're the ones who came to me and asked if I could get her here. " - Caleb
Thomas looked over at Edward and Emily.
" You guys did this? " - Thomas
" Yes. I felt so bad for you, I wanted to make you feel better. " - Edward
" Me too. " - Emily
Thomas was so touched that he soon went up to Emily and Edward and kissed them both on the cheek. Yes he kissed Edward on the cheek, in a brother way of course.
" Thank you guys so much. I love you. " - Thomas
" I love you too Thomas. " - Emily
" We're always here for you. " - Edward
Thomas smiled as big as he could and went back and looked back at Emilia.
" So Emilia. What do you say I give you a tour around Sodor. " - Thomas
" Please. I would love to see this place. " - Emilia
The two siblings left the docks side by side and Thomas gave his tour to his sister. Everyone watched and smiled.
" What a great day. " - Caleb
" You can say that again. " - Percy
" So where is she gonna work? " - Emily
" Her controller said she was good at shunting, so maybe Philip could use a partner. " - Caleb
" I bet he'll love that. " - Edward
" Or not. " - Erik
Caleb didn't care and would soon assign her to work with Philip. Emilia becomes the next engine on Sodor and be apart of the family.
More importantly, she got to meet family as well in Thomas, and Thomas finally got to see his sister for real, and she was here to stay, so they could have as much time with each other as they wanted.
THE END
That's it. Sorry this chapter is a little shorter. But Thomas still got to meet his sister, and now they are together. Do you want Emilia to appear in other stories? Let me know.
I hope you enjoyed his story. This story was dedicated to my sister. Back in November, I ended up seeing her for the 1st time in 3 years. I wasn't able to see her or my brother because of my mom's second marriage. But after my mom divorced, she was able to contact her and we went to lunch together and it was amazing. I also got to see my nephew, it was an amazing day for me. My brother also just had a daughter, so now I have a niece. Now I get to see them all the time now. Thank you mom.
So just know that siblings are always there for you, even if you don't believe it.
You all have a great month of March. Next story should hopefully be out this month. Stay tuned.
Bye. I love you all. Love, Ethan.
