//------------------------------// // Trains of thought // Story: TCB: Invasion of Sodor // by autobotfan15 //------------------------------// May 21st Report filed by Royal Guard Captain Galant Spear: Troops have been stationed at certain points in the dome. The most crucial areas are where the tracks and roads are. Guards have reported movement outside but can’t confirm any human presence. The guards are keeping watch for any humans, engines, vehicles, or aircraft that come close. They are subject to council and conversion. We had a few unchanged humans try and escape but they were quickly apprehended. The newfoals have been seen and described as highly cooperative, some even volunteering to help guard the edges of the dome and as well as the town. So far the ponies that have came to Sodor but have gone missing are: Fluttershy, Lyra Heartstrings, Derpy Hooves, Starlight Glimmer, Zecora, Cream Heart, and Button Mash. We are planning to have the Wonderbolts and a platoon of pegasi guards leave the dome and search for them from the skies. They are also tasked of derailing any trains that don’t stop on command but that’s only if they haven’t found all ponies and zebra first. May 21st 2:05 PM From the Diary of Twilight Sparkle: Rainbow Dash told me she’ll be going out tomorrow with the Wonderbolts to find our missing friends and to derail any trains that won’t stop if we tell them to. She doesn’t want to and nor does Spitfire but they have to follow orders. I tried asking the princess about this but she responded by saying no human or engine should be trusted they will most likely rebel and destroy us with their weapons. I just hope they find them safely and I also hope they don’t actually derail any trains they see. I have never questioned Princess Celestia's Judgement but now I'm starting to think there's a lot more going on here than what she's telling me. Is she hiding something? Am I not trustworthy enough? Does she still trust me like a fellow princess? Can I even trust those engines? May 21st 2:20 PM From the Diary of Princess Luna The dreams of these newfoals are strange. I have peered into the dreams of the humans before thier conversion treatments and they were all different from one another. But with all these newfoals, they are all the exact same. I never encountered something like this before. A group of ponies sharing the same exact dream? My sister says it's a coincidence, I'm starting to think otherwise They all dream of frolicking through fields and worshipping us like gods. I may like the attention but the way they smile at me makes me uncomfortable. May 21st 2:20 PM From the Diary of Princess Celestia Why would a few ponies not drink the emergency teleport potion? I thought I made it clear to all my subjects that it has to be drank. If they are trying to rebel and join the humans then they wont last long. I'm sure they'll be found and would want to help with my plans for the future once again. As for the ponies questioning me and my judgement, they may not understand but soon they will. I just need to keep reminding them of the corrupted state the human race is in. I’ve been receiving regular reports from other clinics across the world. I just learned one of the most hated churches in America has finally been converted and is now singing praises and are actually apologizing to this LGBTQ community, particularly pony members, for all the slander and bullying. From what I’ve heard about this church and their bizarre homophobic views, they won’t be missed. The same could be said about this scam call center somewhere in India. Now instead of scamming people out of their savings they are now encouraging conversion propaganda with their phone calls. Small help they give, but it’s better than no help at all. The mission that will be carried out will be commanded by Gallant Spear. This would be his first mission since becoming captain after Shining Armor left for the Crystal Empire. Let’s hope he and Spitfire will get along. May 21st 4:30 PM Note by a unknown patient found in a trash bin within the Conversion Bureau Clinic of Harwick: I am human. I am human. I am human. I am human. I never wanted this. She made me this way. She’s not a goddess. She’s a devil. Avoid the white devil. The lord above is my lord and no else will take his place. I am... human. GET OUT OF MY HEAD GET OUT OF MY HEAD SOMEPONY BODY HELP I... I love the Royal Sisters. I am a pony. And I must smile.
