Hi again. I'm sorry for not writing anything down on this journal, especially since it's now been 2 days since we've tried to stop Jason ourselves, only for the battle to end with Jason murdering Leo and teleporting away. Donald had been very miserable ever since it happened, and had to stay in the sheds till The Fat Controller could find a new fireman for him, while Douglas took over his jobs for him. Despite more people being murdered on the island, the controller promised everyone that once Jason is stopped, he'll make sure the engines and staff work together to restore the railway's legacy. He also stated that he'll keep the railway running, but only with a limited amount of engines, specially since no one wanted to travel at night... why didn't The Fat Controller just close the railway with Jason roaming around, I have no idea.

Anyway, that brings us to today: May 16th 2022. Henry and I were making our way to Knapford Station, when we saw Donald which confused us. Before we could ask why he was here with his driver with no fireman, we then listened closely through The Fat Controller's office, as the man himself was talking to someone. Then he walks out of his office with somebody we've not seen around here before, and looked over to us. The Fat Controller then introduced us to Tommy Jarvis, who is going to be not only Donald's temporally fireman, but is also going to help us put an end to Jason's madness, especially since he had a very long experience with him in Camp Crystal Lake. Hearing this news was such a bloody miracle, at long last, we finally have a solution to our problems.

Hello. Henry's driver, Michael has decided to let me borrow his journal for a bit, because Tommy had a plan, which we're currently doing right now. You see, after he was dropped off by Edward and came into my office, he explained to me that we're going to return Jason to his original resting place, which is at Camp Crystal Lake and chain him to the bottom of the lake. Henry is currently looking for a spare truck with a tarpaulin, along with a goods van to put it between the truck and the engines, just to be safe.

The sun has started to set, as I've been dropped off at Tidmouth Hault by Oliver, where Donald, his driver and Tommy were waiting for me. Then as soon as I stepped out, I saw Jason kill more people again, which caused Oliver with the rest of his passengers to run away. Luckily though, Tommy had pulled out a shotgun and fired at Jason, and after a couple of shots, he gave up and teleported somewhere else, which Tommy had already assumed that he went back to Camp Crystal Lake. Donald wondered if he went back there when his fireman was killed, which he said yes, because he saw him during the time and knew what he had to do. But before we could ask Tommy how he even got to Sodor, Henry arrived with the wagons we need, along with some chains inside the goods van. So with everything ready, Donald buffered up to the wagons from behind and we set off.

By the time night came, we were already storming down the line, as we made our way to Henry's Forest, the place where Jason's rampage first started.

Once we arrived, we stepped out of the engines and their crews and I got the chains out of the goods van and the tarpaulin out of the truck, while Tommy had slightly stepped forward away from us, then suddenly threw something which turned into a p...

Once we arrived, we stepped out of the engines and their crews and I got the chains out of the goods van and the tarpaulin out of the truck, while Tommy had slightly stepped forward away from us, then suddenly threw something which turned into a portal to some kind of campsite by a lake. He then turn to us and told us to follow him into the portal, and as we did, we had ended up in Camp Crystal Lake itself, just as the portal behind us closed, leaving the engines alone in the forest.

I asked Tommy where he got that kind of device, and he explained that he took it from Jason who stole it from a scientist far away after he killed him in a lab somewhere... for some reason, it sounded believable. Before any of us could ask him any more questions, we all heard Jason's voice echo through the campsite and we got ready for the attack.

Holy shit, that was intense... but we did it! We finally took Jason down and made sure he stayed where he belongs! We're all now back on Sodor, but without Tommy, and I'm currently sitting on Henry's footplate, about to write down what had happened back in Camp Crystal Lake.

As we all walked towards a deck, we stayed in front of a small cabin, while Tommy and The Fat Controller ran and then swam towards a boat that stood in the middle of the lake, and as they climbed on, while carrying the chains, we saw Jason slowly approaching us. Suddenly, as he grabbed Ted by the head with both of his hands, Tommy calls out to Jason and says "Come here, it's me you want! Remember?!" and it did the trick, as he let Ted go and walks towards the boat. And just as we all thought Tommy was crazy, while Jason was under the lake, still walking towards the boat, The Fat Controller wondered where he went, then Tommy suddenly grabbed a tank of gasoline, pours it around the boat and made some kind of ring of fire around it, after he had lit a match using a rock that was on the boat, that he and The Fat Controller later tied one end of the chain to. Jason suddenly jumped onto the boat and began attacking The Fat Controller, while Tommy wraps the chain around Jason's neck behind the two. But due to the heavy weight of them, the boat splits in half and they fell into the lake. After trying to get out of the trap, Jason then tried to strangle Tommy, but then gets knocked out by The Fat Controller from a wack to the back of the head with one of the firemen's shovels that he borrowed from us, just in case. Then with that done, the two quickly swam back to shore, as we rush over to them. I asked if Jason is finally stopped, to which Tommy said "For now, yes." It was such a relief. Soon he then dropped a portal for us to go back to Sodor, The Fat Controller turned to Tommy and asked if he wanted to come with us, but he said that he needed to stay here and protect campers from Jason, in case he was still alive. We then thanked Tommy as we walked into the portal before it disappeared behind us. Henry and Donald wondered how it went and if Jason is stopped, we only smiled at them and told them that he won't be bothering us anymore.

Our engines were so glad that everything will eventually be back to normal, and Henry could visit his forest again. And just to make things better, The Fat Controller promised Donald that he will have a new fireman tomorrow and he'll be back to work. I feel like this will be the last time I write on this journal, especially since I feel like life will just be back to the way it is, now with Jason gone. Even though we've lost so many good people and engines throughout this week, they'll all be remembered for what they've done on the island. Anyway, I'm gonna stop writing now, just so we can get our engines back home. This is Michael Weckler, the driver of the North Western Railway's number 3, signing off.
