Have you ever heard of “Thomas the Tank Engine”? If you’ve been around little foals i’m sure you have. My cousin: Ice Shard, loved Thomas so much she could name all of the trains, knew what color they were & even the number they had painted on them. I kinda thought it was a good series for foals, but that all changed one day.

(Before Season 9)
Twilight walks into her throne room bringing waffles to Spike, Starlight, & Nyx. “Morning Mom!” Nyx said.
“Morning Nyx, Spike, Starlight. Here’s breakfast” Twilight replies. As the family eats Spike talks about asking Rarity out & Nyx giggles.
Starlight begins to ask “What do you think happened to Cozy Glow?”
“Princess Celestia told me she just sent her back home” Twilight answered. Suddenly the door horns blare out a 3 second tune.
“Oh that must be Derpy with the mail” Spike says as he makes his way towards the door.
“Mom I heard from Neighsay that she was sent to Tartarus” Nyx said.
Twilight ponders this for a bit then says “Princess Celestia never lies to me Nyx. I’m sure Cozy’s fine.”
“TWIIILIIIIIIIIIGHT!!!!!!” Spike had burst through the door, startling the other three.
“SPIKE! Don’t scare us like that!” said Twilight.
Spike chuckles nervously & says “Sorry girls, it’s just I got a letter from Aunt Firefly that Ice Shard is coming for a visit.”
“Really!?” Twilight said in a excited voice. Twilight looked at the letter & was so excited that her 7 year old cousin was coming to Ponyville tomorrow. But then she remembered something unfortunate. “Guys tomorrow I need to grade the essays from the School of Friendship” Twilight told them. Starlight thought for a moment until she got an idea.
“She likes Thomas right? So why Not buy her a Thomas DVD?” Starlight suggested. Twilight liked the idea and decided to go to the video store to buy a DVD.

-At the video store-
“Hmm, where’s the foals section?” Twilight asked herself as she strolled through the store. She could see movies of every kind, like “Raiders of the Lost Mark,” & “Nightmare in Manehatten.” Finally, she found the foals section of the store & searched for the Thomas DVD’s. “Come on, where are the-” *BUMP* Twilight bumped into a box that seemed empty, but she could see something inside it. So she used her magic to pick it up & saw it was a DVD case. The DVD was called “Thomas & the Children.” It looked innocent enough. Thomas was smiling & foals were sticking their heads out of the coaches waving. Twilight brought the DVD over to the counter to purchase it. “How much do you want for this DVD?” Twilight asked.
The Shop worker looked at the DVD with an odd look & said, “Princess, I don’t quite remember receiving this DVD to be sold.” Well that was odd. The shop records everything they receive for sale, but when the cashier checked the list the title of the DVD wasn’t on it. He just shrugged it off & told Twilight they don’t own it so she can just take it. Twilight decided to leave 2 bits anyway. She left the store to bring the DVD home.
“Just wait til Ice Shard sees this” Twilight told herself.
