Penguins and Dragons

Uncle Tom

Thomas the Train was riding down the track. He was off to meet a vampire. Her name was Juliet. Juliet is his niece.

Juliet was a pitiful waste of all air. She was vampire that didn't have wings. So she was bullied and sad and alone. Only winged vampires have friends.

Juliet's father, Thomas, who just happened to be a maze runner on the side, decided that she was too sad. And sad vampires tended to develop a taste for garlic. It was, quite often, a fatal desire. Like Stake Fest.

So, Thomas the Maze Runner took his daughter to see Penguin Falls. The waterfall of penguins, he hoped, would brighten Juliet's mood. If not there was always the cave.

Thomas the Train was riding up the track to meet them. He hoped to surprise his niece. He met them there, a little late, after stopping to take some squirrels to Fox Hill Mall.

Juliet was happy at the Penguin Falls. But then crew ship ventured to close and its foghorn startled the penguins. They flew away and Juliet was reminded of how sad her life would be with no escape.

Her father, Thomas, decided to take her to the Cave of Stalagmites Or was it Stalactites. No one really sure.

Thomas the Train let Juliet ride on his caboose. He opened his wings and soared up the penguin-less falls and through the Cave of either Stalactites or Stalagmites with his brother as his wingman. The brothers high fived and then let Juliet off, so she could see the cotton candy cloudy realm. The substance was all poisonous and it had even killed Juliet's werewolf mother, but was quite a sight to be behold. The fluffy pink was soft and gentle.

The family stayed there for awhile. Thomas decided to use his break from maze running to fill up on the delicious cotton candy (He was human and they have always been immune to itself artificial sugars that killed other creatures). Juliet played and smiled brighter than she had in years.

Soon it was time for Thomas the Train to head back to the station. Juliet pleaded with her Uncle Thomas not to leave and he felt bad for her. He figured it must be hard not having wings. One couldn't even fly without them. But Thomas left. Juliet's voice was too annoying to keep him in the realm.

Juliet cried, heart broken, and decided to drown her sorrows with cotton candy. The poison was much too strong for a young girl like her to survive for long. But Juliet kept on eating and eating. Up until her heart stopped. And very soon after, her father died of laughter.
