Seize on Sodor - Thomas the Tank Engine & PAW Patrol Crossover

Chapter 15: Getaway

Thomas, James, and Emily had reached Tidmouth yards with the PAW Patrol. They had used the turntable to rotate Emily so she would be pulled from behind James' tender in the middle while Thomas took the lead. The rest of the patrol soon reunited with each other at Tidmouth and discussed the day's events. Marshall, Rocky, and Rubble said that there were no incidents over their side of the island and Ryder, Chase, Skye, and Zuma gave the same answer. They soon made a plan to take turns snooping around the island to see if Mayor Humdinger had caused anymore mayhem. The team thought it was Skye's turn to go out patrolling for a bit, leaving one of the members out of the two engines' cabs and Emily with no one in her cab, with the exceptions of the documents that held evidence of the Fat Controller's pleading. When asked where her crew were, Emily replied by saying they left her at the sheds before going out to search for medical attention and left without them. They're probably confused now about where their engine had gone.

After saying their goodbyes, the team made their departure and Ryder, Chase, and Zuma left the goods yard on Thomas and James, with Emily following right behind. Once the trio had left the yards and approached the main line, the team began to tell the three engines that they have evidence that the Fat Controller is actually innocent and the engines were glad to hear it and get Sir Topham Hatt back to where he was. But at the same time, Emily began to feel nervous, same as Thomas and James. They were hoping not to be spotted by Humdinger or else something bad would happen. He couldn't see Emily again after he sent her back to her former place she used to stay before she moved into Tidmouth sheds. He would do twice the damage that was done to Emily. Her nose was now healed, the same as for her left eye. Their hopes would soon be crushed as they saw Humdinger going on a stroll on his purple kitty carrier, following the side of the track. They tried so hard to pass him cleanly without catching his attention. As they passed him, they thought they had passed him successfully, but they thought too soon. After a couple of seconds, Humdinger gazed at Emily once before realizing that she was actually in front of him. He looked at Emily and snarled as he pulled out his remote control and went faster.

"Hey, what do you think you're doing?! I thought I took care of you already! Hand that engine over now or else there will be trouble!" He demanded.

Emily looked fearfully at the mayor as he pulled out a pistol from his pocket and aimed it at her. Zuma heard the voice and peeked out from James' cab and gasped.

"Pump those pistons! We have an awmed Humdingew on ouw tail!" Zuma cried out to the big red engine.

James and Thomas glanced behind them and began to pick up speed. The sight of Humdinger holding a pistol in his hand motivated the two engines enough because they knew they had no protection against them or Emily. Chase and Ryder glanced at what Zuma was talking about and he was right. There was Humdinger right on their tail with a gun in his hand, gritting his teeth at the three engines and the three members.

"I knew I should've done this earlier. This would've saved me a lot of time, you useless piece of future scrap metal." He glared at the emerald engine as he cocked his gun.

Thank goodness Emily was coupled up to the back of James. She wouldn't be able to try to keep up with the two engines' pace. She had no driver nor fireman in her cab to keep her running backwards. Thomas and James clickety-clacked along the track as they tried to outrun the mayor while pulling the emerald engine while their firemen kept shoveling coal into their fireboxes to produce more steam. The two engines were determined to outrun the mayor and get to the Steamworks without him following them but it was no use. The mayor kept pace with them as he tried to get a perfect target of one of the engines. Ryder peeked out of Thomas' cab and thought of an idea. He pulled out his pup pad and called for help.

"Skye, Humdinger is following us down the main line and has us at gunpoint. Can you try and slow him down?" The ten-year-old boy asked urgently.

Skye heard what Ryder said and put on a determined facial expression. "You got it, Ryder. This pup's gotta fly!"
