Previous ChapterNext Chapter

The young six and little engines were getting ready dressed in costumes for the Halloween festival.Sandbar and Skarloey are dressing as mummies,Rusty and Smolder were witches and wizards,Ocellus and Peter Sam were dressing as bugs,Silverstream and Rheneas were dressing as Dolphins,Gallus and Sir handle were dressing as bald eagles,And Yona and Duncan were dressed as yaks.Later,Duncan and Yona were getting empty trucks ready for Peter Sam and Ocellus.Yona was happy.But,Duncan wasn’t.

“I want to get this job over with so I can go to the festival.”He grumbled.Then,There was trouble.Duncan was so cross,He didn’t knew he gave Ocellus and Peter Sam and Ocellus old trucks.Later,Rusty and Smolder helped them get to a water tower.

“Thanks,Smolder,Thanks,Rusty.”Said Ocellus.

“Your welcome.”Said Smolder as they left.Peter Sam felt much better after a long drink.But,The trucks were bored.

“Let’s break away!”They giggled.Their loads were heavy and the couplings groaned until one of them snapped.The troublesome trucks rolled back down the hill.”Faster!Faster!”A sign read ‘Slow!Steep bends and ravine ahead’.But,The silly trucks never saw it.Then,It happened.The trucks jumped off the bridge and splashed into the swamp.Peter Sam and Ocellus arrived at the scene of the disaster.

“This was our fault.”Said Ocellus.”I think we didn’t secure them probably.Mr.Percival will be very cross.”And he was back at the yards.

“You will work in the yards until I can get to the bottom of this.”He said sternly.Duncan was delighted over Peter Sam and Ocellus’ punishment.

“Fancy not securing your trucks on a hill.They’ll come back to spook you two.”Said Duncan.”WOOOO!”Yona,Ocellus,And Peter Sam were scared.

“And who’s to say you’re not afraid of ghosts.”Scolded Smolder.

“Ghosts?Things that go bump in the night?Ha!”Laughed Duncan.

“Well,I’ll tell you a story that will make you quiver!”Said Rusty.”Long ago,An old engine was returning home on a Misty moonlit night.When he went onto the old iron bridge,He lost control and plunged over the side into the swamps below.He was never found again.But,Legend has it that durning the full moon,You can see the little engine trying to get home.But,He never reached the other side.”

“So,What do you think about that?”Rusty asked.

“Rubbish!”Laughed Duncan and he steamed away with Yona.Ocellus and Peter Sam were cross.

“Maybe he must have gave us trucks that are too old!”Said Ocellus crossly.

“I think it’s time we pay him back.”Said Rusty and he told Smolder.Ocellus,And Peter Sam their plan and they agreed.Later,Duncan and Yona were taking slate trucks to the shunting yards.

“If we don’t hurry,Skarloey and Sandbar will take our place n the sheds!”He grumbled and he started to go faster.

“Whoa!Calm down,Duncan!”Called Yona.Duncan whistled and the sound echoed everywhere.When they arrived at the old iron bridge,Duncan stopped.He and Yona saw flickering lights in the shape of an engine.

“What’s that?”Shivered Yona.They didn’t knew it was really Ocellus who had transformed into a firefly and communicated with others to help.When the engine show vanished,Ocellus then secretly transformed into a huge dragon.

“Cannonball!”She yelled as she jumped off the cliff and splashed not the swamp with a mighty splash.

“What was that?”Gasped Yona.

“IT’S THE GHOST!!!”Screamed Duncan.And he raced away as fast as he could.But,He moved too fast around the bend and crashed off the tracks.Slate scattered everywhere.Luckily,No one was hurt.Rusty and Smolder arrived with Mr.Percival.He was very cross.

“Rusty and Smolder told me it was you who gave Peter Sam and Ocellus those old trucks.”He said sternly.”You have caused confusion and delay!You will shunt trucks in the yard until I can trust you again.”

“Yes,Sir.Sorry,Sir.”Moaned Duncan.

“Serves you right.”Replied Yona.”But,What was it that we saw on the bridge?”Rusty and Smolder laughed.

“That was a joke to pay you back.”Said Smolder.

“And it was me who made those fireflies shape an engine and made a splash in the swamp.”Said Ocellus when he arrived on Peter Sam.

“Everyone loves a good Halloween joke.”Said Mr.Percival.Everyone laughed.Including Duncan.
