Jason Takes Sodor (Universal Error 5)

The Universal Truth

Well shit... even though it's only been a week, all this has to happen.

We're at Kellsthorpe Road and Henry is sitting on a siding, till we saw Gordon rush by with the express and some kind of helicopter chasing him down, and then Thomas stopped at the station to drop off panicked passengers. After Thomas was uncoupled from Annie and Clarabel, he pulls up onto the other line and backs up next to Henry. We then walked over to Thomas' driver, Bob Perkins and his fireman, Keith Jones then wondered what was going on, while Henry looked over at Thomas, who was out of breath. I then started to write down as the crew explained to us what happened around Knapford.

Earlier on that day, Thomas had pulled into the station where he saw Gordon waiting with his express and James backing into his goods train, but that wasn't the reason why he was cross, he was cross with the engine who had to shunt James' trucks onto the platform. The engine in question was Billy, who was fussing next to the station, as he backed some trucks into the goods shed. He then said to himself "I swear, this railway is going to be the death of me." But they decided to ignore him, till they saw it... A giant blue portal opened in the sky, and a helicopter, which they called it a "Hunter-Chopper" merged out of it. Billy then screamed "What the hell is that?!" Before the Hunter-Chopper fired a missile at him, blowing him up and knocking over the trucks behind him. "RUN!" was all Thomas could say to Gordon and James, before he took off with the two engines following, but James ended up leaving his trucks behind. As they pass the bus yard, Thomas watched in horror as another missile was fired at Bertie, before he even had a chance to escape. As the three engines raced down the main line, Thomas struggled to catch up with Gordon and James, but knew they had to get away from the Hunter-Chopper. Then he heard a voice from inside the helicopter, saying something like "Do not resist, stop your trains right now." but they just kept going. And when they passed Crosby, they looked at the yards to see Percy and his crew being surrounded by "Metro Cops", which one of them used their stunstick to hit Percy's driver. As much as they wanted to stop and help Percy, they couldn't with the Hunter-Chopper behind them. Then they rush through Wellsworth and saw Toby in the yards, and they swore they heard him say as we passed "Oh god, my dream makes sense now!" though we'll be getting back to that sooner or later. Anyway, after James raced down the branch line towards Brendam, Thomas watched Gordon rush under the bridge after Cronk, and when he looked up, he saw Diesel 10 on the bridge, watching him speed down under and called out to him "The Announcer ain't done with you, puffball! Wait till I get you!" apparently, Thomas knew who he was talking about and continued to charge down the line till he got to where he is now.

When Thomas' crew finished, we were all confused and remembered back to when Toby told us having a dream that something big was coming. Thomas then wondered if the Combine attack was just a coincidence, but then we asked what about Jason? That was when we heard a voice coming from the station. "...I know exactly what happened in that ship." While we left Thomas and Henry to discuss the situation to each other, we walked over to see a man from America, who claimed to be the only survivor on the ship to Sodor where Jason came from a long while back before he began his rampage on the island. He explained that while he was minding his own business, a blue portal came out of nowhere and Jason stepped out before it disappeared. At first, everyone was confused, but as soon as he started killing people, they began to panic while he tried to look for somewhere safe to hide. And when the ship arrived on Sodor, he ran out of the ship and got away from Jason as far as possible, while he slowly stepped out and teleported away. We were all very shocked from the man's story, because we all thought that everyone on the ship had been killed, but he guessed that he was one of the lucky ones.

By the time we returned to our engines, their conversation had already turned into a full on argument. I don't know what they've been saying, but I do remember Thomas saying one more thing to Henry before he left. "...if you knew what I've been through last year Henry, you'd FUCKING understand!" Our engine was just shocked as he watched Thomas puff away into the distance, while the rest of us were just speechless. I think I'm going to stop writing in this journal for good, because all of this has gotten very confusing. Not to mention, I've began to feel like that there is nothing else for me to even write about... but with all the things that have been going on with the North Western Railway's number one lately, Henry feels like that we needed a serious talk with Toby, but for now... I don't know, I really don't know.
