-The Next Evening-
Twilight was in the kitchen eating a hayburger while talking to herself. "Ah, what a day it's been, Nyx is having a sleepover with the crusaders, Starlight is running the School of Friendship, and-" Twilight remembers Spike. He hasn't come out of his room all day, not even for meals. Twilight had a gem pie ready for him & usually by the time it's ready Spike would be ready to eat. "Spike's been up there for a little while. I better go check on him." Twilight left the kitchen to check on her little brother. She enters Spike's room and walks over to his bed. Spike is lying down facing the other direction. "Spike, you've been sleeping all day. Get up."
"..."
"-Sp-Spike?"
Twilight kept trying to wake him up but he wouldn't respond. Finally, she decided to nudge him awake. but something felt odd. Spike was cold. Twilight then turned Spike around & what she saw shocked her. Spike's eyes were gouged out, with blood pooring from his sockets.
"*GASP* SPIKE!" Twilight was crying now. "NO! SP-SPIKE!!!"
Suddenly, Twilight saw a vortex appear in the floor 10 feet away from her. "W-What in the name of Faust!?" Out came a giant mechanical black hand with a blue arm. It was then revealed to be a mangled form of Thomas with red eyes & fangs. It slowly started approaching Twilight. Twilight baked away with her left foreleg up. Suddenly the creature lunged at Twilight biting her leg off. She screamed in total agony as she clutched where her leg used to be. The creature then grabbed her and pulled her into the vortex.
-???-
Twilight has woken up surrounded by dead trees and rusty metal. She heard chuffing behind her & saw Thomas with those red eyes. He then said in an ominous voice: "Hello everybody! Welcome to the island of Sodor!"
-Reality-
Twilight wakes up. it was all just a terrible nightmare. Ice Shard wasn't even there yet, but Twilight knew she had to find something else for her to watch. In the end she ended up canceling the visit, & she never looked at Thomas the Tank Engine the same way again.
