[DEVIATION] The Winter Holiday Season Is A Very Special Time On The Island Of Sodor. It's Also The Most Busiest Time Of Year For Sir Topham Hatt's Engines. Despite The Bustling Work, The Engines Look Forward To The Festivities The Winter Holidays Awaits Them. What Also Accompanies The Winter Holidays Wasn't Just Festivities, But Also Snow. A Thick, White Blanket Of It Covered The Island Of Sodor From Trees To Tracks. But Sometimes, There's Too Much Snow. That's Why It's Imperative For The Lines To Be Cleared, Before Trains Can Traverse Any Track, On Any Line. It Was 4 Days Before Christmas, And All The Engines Are Looking Forward To The Annual Christmas Party That's Being Held At Ulfstead Castle By Sir Robert Norramby, The Earl Of The Castle's Estate. But First, There's A Lot Of Jobs That Needed To Be Done Before The Party. A Recent Snowstorm Covered The Island In Thick, White Snow, So Sir Topham Hatt Sent A Few Engines To Clear The Line. He Sent Donald & Douglas To Help. Other Engines

[DEVIATION] Mike Stayed In The Shed, Sobbing To Himself About His Past, And Imagined If His Lover Never Left Him When Diesels Came Along. When Thomas & Percy Returned To Tidmouth Sheds That Evening, They Were Surprised To Discover That Mike Was Idling In The Carriage Sheds, Looking Very Lonely. Concerned, Thomas & Percy Backed Towards Mike, Who Wasn't Pleased To See Them. But After Some Negotiations & Talks To Tell Mike What's Been Going On, He Eventually Told Them Everything. From The Punishment Topham Gave Him, To The Dream He Had, And About His Past. While Hearing Everything Mike Had To Say, Thomas & Percy We're Surprised & Concerned. Mike Told Them More About His Lover. "We First Got Together The Day We Met." He Said, "We Were Young, Cheeky & Full Of Similarities. So Much In Fact, We Didn't Have Any Romantic Challenges." "Who Is Your Lover?" Percy Asked. "Hayley Is Her Name." Mike Answered, "A Beautiful Name At That. And Ever Since We've Got Together, We Both Stood By Each Other's

[DEVIATION] After Topham Gave Mike His Punishment, Mike Stayed In His Shed For The Most Of Each Day, And Only On Sparse Occasions Each Day, Did He Only Go Out When His Long Trains Were Set For The Mainland. It Started To Teach Him Some Lessons, But Not A Whole Lot. Weeks & Months Passed, And Mike Has Quietly Changed... But Not In A Good Way. Now, I Feel Like I Need To Touch On What Mike Truly Has Been Going Through. What Mike Has Shown Us On Many Occasions, He's Very Egotistical, Confrontational, Violent & A Downright Savage When It Comes To Playing Pranks. With All These Negative Traits Associated With Him, What If I Told You That There's A Core Reason Why Mike Has Been Behaving The Way He Is, Even It Might Come Off As A Plain Excuse. Mike Is A Depressed Engine. Why? Well, It Stems From A Few Reasons. For Starters, Mike Is Scarred By The Future, Diesels Reigning Supreme Against They're Steam Engine Predecessors. He Also Was Builled By Some Diesels Back In His Days. As They're

[DEVIATION] It Was A Beautiful Spring Morning On The Island Of Sodor. The Sun Was Shining, Birds Were Chirping, Trees Blossomed Green & Cherry, And Sir Topham Hatt's Railway Was As Busy As Ever. Today Is April Fools Day. People Play Pranks & Joke Around With Friends & Family As A Means To Celebrate. Some Engines Like To Celebrate Too, But There Acts Of Trickery & Pranks Can Get Them Into Trouble. Early One Morning, Mike Was Resting At Knapford Sheds. When... "PEEEEEEEP!!!!!!" Came A Loud But Familiar Whistle. "AH!!!!" Screamed Mike. "Wake Up Lazy Bones!" Said Thomas, "April Fools!!" And He Ran Off Laughing. *Growl* "You. Little. WRETCHED. SCAMBAG!!!!" Yelled Mike. Later His Crew Came To Get Him Fired Up. "It's Another Coal Drag To The Mainland." His Driver Told Him. *Sigh* "Let's Just Get It Over With..." Sighed Mike, Still Tired. Then An Idea Flew Into His Funnel. "Hmmm. Since Today Is April Fools Day." He Thought To Himself, "Why Not I Pull Some Pranks On The Engines? After All, I
