TAOT Spooky Special

Narrator: Thomas and Percy are good friends, but sometimes Percy likes to tease Thomas about being frightened, and he doesn't like that at all.

Are you dreaming about the time you thought that I was a ghost?" Thomas *yawns*: "Certainly not, anyway, I was only pretending to be scared, I knew it was you, really." Percy: "Oh really, that's not the way Toby and I saw it, we saw that you truly were frightened out of your wits! Anyway, I hope that Twilight leaves the light on for you tonight

At last, however, when his engine had passed its final tests to make sure it was fixed properly, men came to repaint his engine. But Henry saw that instead of his engine's usual nice green paint, they had something very different in their paint pots.
