The Steam Team Railway is often considered the best railway on the Island of Sodor, mainly due to the amazing work efforts by the Steam Team themselves. Thomas, Edward, Henry, Gordon, James, Percy, and Emily all work perfectly together, and has since gotten better with the addition of Nia and Rebecca.

But today, that was about to change.

Today on Sodor was gonna be an interesting one. At the Steam Team Railway, The Mitchell's (Caleb, Tyler, and Patrick) mother was coming over to pick something very special. What was it? Well, they're all about to find out.

At Tidmouth, Caleb arrived to make the news.

" Hello Everyone. " - Caleb

" Hello Sir. " - Everyone

" I have some, exciting news. " - Caleb

" A raise? " - Jake

" No. " - Caleb

" An indoor water slide? " - Hailey

" No? " - Caleb

" A week off? " - Thomas

" No! " - Caleb

" Like that would ever happen. " - Percy

" Shhh. " - Thomas

" Tyler, Patrick, Mom's coming over. " - Caleb

" Mom? I haven't heard from her in weeks. " - Patrick

" I just talked to her a few days ago. " - Tyler

" Does she ever remember me? " - Patrick

" Anyways. She's coming over from Dallas to pick up something. " - Caleb

(Tyler, Patrick, and Caleb were all born in Dallas in case you didn't know.)

" What is it? " - Emily

" Well, uhhh..... " - Caleb

" What? " - Tyler

" It's a statue. " - Caleb

" Of what? " - Percy

Caleb took a little while to answer, but got it out.

" Mark Cuban. " - Caleb

" Who?! " - Everyone except Tyler and Patrick

" Are you serious? " - Tyler

" I wish I was kidding. " - Caleb

" Who is Mark Cuban? " - Edward

" He's the owner of the Dallas Mavericks. " - Tyler

" The what? " - Gordon

" The NBA team? We've all watched them. " - Patrick

" Since when? " - Gordon

" Nevermind. " - Patrick

" So why does your mom want a statue of this guy? " - Nia

" Let's just say she has a huge obsession with this guy. " - Caleb

" She actually had a shrine of him in our basement. " - Tyler

" Sounds like a stalker. " - James

" I think she might be. " - Patrick

" Our father never knew, and yet they divorced, probably because mom didn't want him anymore and instead wanted Mark. " - Tyler

" That's sad. " - Henry

" Tell me about it? " - Hailey

They all looked at her.

" I mean my parents are still fine and together. " - Hailey
