" You can't fire me! " - James

" I'm sorry James, but......" - Caleb

" It was just a stupid statue. " - James

" Hey! My mom had waited so long for this statue and you completely ruined it for her and she's very sad by it. " - Caleb

" And so that calls for him to get fired? " - Percy

" Hey, just to let you all know, James has done many other things in the past that were very unacceptable. So this, this was the last straw. " - Caleb

" I can't believe this. " - Emily

" Even I'm surprised. " - Gordon

" I'm surprised by you. " - Ginny

" I'm sorry James, but it's clearly obvious that you can't work for me anymore. " - Caleb

" So where the hell am I suppose to work now? " - James

" Their are plenty of other railways on Sodor you can work for. " - Caleb

" But James has worked here for so long, it just wouldn't feel right without him. " - Edward

" Heck, can I even stay here at Tidmouth anymore? " - James

" I don't think so, since everyone else who lives here, still works for this railway. " - Caleb

" Then where do I sleep? " - James

" You can find a place, when you find a new job. " - Caleb

" What about me? Does that mean I have to leave to. " - Jake

" Of course not Jake, you just might have to work with someone else. " - Caleb

" Someone new? " - Jake

" No, you could work with Ginny. " - Caleb

" I don't need a second driver. " - Gordon

" Yes you do. " - Ginny

Gordon groaned.

" I can't leave James. He's my best friend. " - Jake

" Ahem. " - Patrick

" Engine best friend. " - Jake

" Sorry, but I can't let you go too. James, you might have to get a new driver. " - Caleb

" This is unbelievable, you son of a.......(audible) " - James

The sound of car horn blared, so that last word by James couldn't be heard, and maybe it's a good thing no one heard, especially Caleb.

" I can't believe my sweet James isn't gonna be here anymore. " - Percy

He then started to cry, and that made Caleb very sad in his head, because in his head, he really didn't want to do this, but something was making him, and that got some of the others thinking.

" It's ok Percy. If I do have to get a new job and home, you can still be there with me all the time. " - James

" Are you sure? " - Percy

" Yes, and my new boss won't have a problem with it. " - James

He glared right back at Caleb.

" Well, I guess I must go. " - James

" I'm really gonna miss you James. " - Nia

" Really? " - James

".......yeah. " - Nia

James just smiled and soon left. 

" OK. So, we should discuss.......... " - Caleb

" How could you do this Caleb? " - Tyler
