Encounter With Timothy/Meeting Edward

This is where encounter with Timothy and meeting Edward goes in Thomas' Human Adventure.

Edward: I'm so sorry. I didn't know it was something of yours. You could've got it.

Timothy: And I was about to get it if you hadn't shown up and ruined everything. You shouldn't get things that don't belong to you.

Edward: It doesn't really belong to you.

Timothy: Well, it did until now! You really are pathetic. No wonder your best friends are such stray animals.

Edward: [cowers]

[Thomas steps up behind the silver boy]

Thomas: How dare you speak to him that way!

Timothy: What did you say?

Thomas: I said how dare you speak to him that way!

Timothy: You must be new here. [flicks Thomas] I can speak to anyone any way I want. [stops and glares at a boy and continues on his way]

Edward: I can't believe you just did that.

Thomas: What do you mean?

Edward: Well, its just that nobody ever stands up to Timothy.

Thomas: TIMOTHY?!

[Thomas watches the silver boy go round the bend]

Edward: I picked up something that didn't belong to him until he explained to me that it did.

Thomas: What was it? A Matrix or something?

Edward: Well, I didn't exactly get a good look at the thing.

Thomas: Well, did you turn it in to someone?

Edward: Well, I did. I turned it in to Principle Celestia. Why?

Thomas: Don't know. Just thought I'd ask.

Edward: Oh. Anyway, did you transfer to Canterlot High from another school?

Thomas: [nervously] Yeah! Another school! I'm Thomas!

Edward: I'm Edward!

Percy: And I'm his best friend, Percy!

Edward: Aw, Who this sweet little guy?

Thomas: Uh, that's Percy, my uh, best friend.

Edward: Good to meet you, Percy.

Percy: Hey, Edward.

Thomas: He and I are good friends.

[Suddenly, bell rings and Edward gasps]

Edward: Sorry. Got to go. I'm late for class.

Thomas: So, Where's the Matrix?

Edward: Ask Principle Celestia. She'll know. [runs to class]

[An hour later]

Thomas: Are you sure Edward said it was with Principle Celestia?

Percy: Sure I'm sure.

Thomas: We can only hope, Percy.

Percy: Okay.

[Thomas' knocks on the Principle's office door]

Principle Celestia: Come in.

[They walk in]

Thomas: Hello. We're new students. I'm Thomas and this is Percy.

Percy: Hello.

Principle Celestia: I see.

Thomas: Well, anyways, I was wondering if you had been given something.

Principle Celestia: Yes. Actually, I had.

Percy: So, you think someone gives you something like a Matrix, perchance?

Principle Celestia: Yes. I was given something a little like that.

Thomas: Actually, that Matrix is...

Percy: Thomas, don't tell her why we're here.

Thomas: ... a trophy. Yeah, a trophy, I think.

Principle Celestia: It has to be won at the Fall Formal.

Thomas: Fall Formal? What's that?

Percy: Yes, tell us about this Fall Formal.

Principle Celestia: It's due in two days time. Only one can be selected prince and win the crown.

Percy: Yeah. Who do you give the trophy to for safekeeping?

Principle Celestia: Vice Principle Luna put the trophy along with the crown for safekeeping.

Thomas: Hmm. You asked me if I was interested in running for Prince. Can anyone run?

Principle Celestia: Yes. You just need to let the head of the Fall Formal planning committee know you'd like to be on the ballot. Was there anything else?

Thomas: No. I think that's all I know.

Principle Celestia: Well, if you do need anything else, my door is always open.

Thomas: Thanks, Principle Celestia.

[door closes]

Percy:  Thomas, why didn't ya just tell her the Matrix belonged to Optimus and ask for it back?

Thomas: I don't want to expose why we are here. Oh, I was going to, but imagine if one of them showed up on Cybertron saying they came from a place filled with tall, fleshy, two-legged creatures with these? We'd think they were crazy!

Percy: Hmm. You make a good point.

Thomas:  Looks like if I want the Matrix back, I'll have to become Prince of the Canterlot High Fall Formal. So that's what I'm gonna do!

Percy: Yeah. We'll need some help with this. But, how exactly do you plan on doing that?

Thomas: I have no idea!

[school bell rings]

[students chatting]

Thomas: I know we've just met, but I was wondering if you might be able to help me with something.

Edward: Help with what?

Thomas: I've decided to run for Prince of the Fall Formal, and–

Edward: Stop! Only Timothy runs for Prince of the Fall Formal. And when he wants something, he gets it! He'll make life awful for anyone who stands in his way. Just ask the boy who ran against him for Prince of the Spring Fling.

Thomas: I have to try!

Percy: Let us hope so.

Edward: Oh, I don't think you understand. You'd have to convince everyone here to vote for you instead of him: the athletes, the fashionistas, the dramas, the eco-kids, the techies, the rockers...

Thomas: Why is everypony–

Percy:[whispers to Thomas] It's everybody, Thomas.

Thomas: Uh, everybody separated this way?

Edward: Maybe it was different at your old school, but at C.H.S., everybody sticks to their own kind. One thing that they do have in common is that they know Timothy is gonna rule the school until we graduate.

Thomas: Not if I can help it! [chews apple] So, uh, [giggle] where would I find the head of the party planning committee.

Percy: You know who, Edward?

Edward: Yes, Percy. There's Charlie.

[Later at the school gymsaim]

Thomas: Edward said he'd probably be in here.

Charlie: Incoming! [breathes in and blows into a balloon]

Thomas: Hi, my name's Thomas and... Charlie?

Percy: I'm Percy. Pleased to meet you, Charlie.

[balloon deflates]

Percy: Wow, you know how to blow balloons.

Charlie: Are you psych?

Percy: No. But, I do know someone who has magic.

Thomas: Unless of course that's something you can do here.

Charlie: If you want to tell something, let me know.

Thomas: Edward said this is where I'd find the head of the Fall Formal planning committee.

Percy: You know where the head of the Fall Formal planning committee is?

Charlie: You're looking at him. And don't let Edward's shy ways fool you. He's a real meanie.

Percy: But, Edward is a nice guy. What makes you say that?

Charlie: Waited a bit to get your name on the ballot, huh? Dance is day after tomorrow.

Thomas:[gasp as he turns to Percy] That's on the 3rd day, Percy.

Percy: [to Charlie] You'll have to excuse him. Thomas is brand new here.

Charlie: Oooh! I thought he didn't look familiar. Though, now that I'm really lookin' at him... Do he have a twin brother who lives in the city, has a best friend named Percy who looks just like you?

Thomas: Uh, maybe?

Charlie: Thought so. Anyhoo, just need to fill this out and you are officially up for the coveted Prince of the Fall Formal Matrix.

[pen scratching]

Thomas: There.

Charlie: Wow! You have really bad handwriting. It's like you've never held a pen before.

Thomas: Yeah. But I know that Ryan can teach me to hold a pen.

Toby: Somebody order a dozen cases of fizzy apple cider?

Thomas: Hi, Toby.

Charlie: I did.

Toby: [to Human Applejack] Can you and your brother bring in the rest?

Human Applejack: Sure thing, sugarcube. [kisses Toby]

Thomas: Applejack? You're with Toby?

[Human Applejack nods]

Toby: Hey, I know you.

Thomas: Toby! Hi. I'm Thomas.

Toby: No, no, no. I know you from somewhere else.

Thomas: I'm from another school like my friend, a cyborg named Ryan F-Freeman.

Toby: Not techanically. You're the new boy who gave Timothy the what for today. [gulps cider]

Thomas: Yes I am. I think.

Charlie: Thomas here is gonna run against Timothy for Prince of the Fall Formal.

Human Applejack: What? Just like Twilight did against Sunset Shimmer?

[Charlie nods]

Tody: Wow. You do know that Timothy will stab Thomas in the back.

Human Applejack: Why don't you just tell the new guy here what I said to Twilight?

Toby: Sure thing, Applejack.

[Toby clears his throat]

Thomas: What?

Percy: I think Toby is about to say something, Thomas.

Toby: I'd think twice about that. Oh, sure, he'll probably approach you all friendly like... [fakes Timothy's voice] I sure am lookin' forward to some friendly competition. [fakes Thomas's voice] That's so good to hear. [normal] But then, here comes the backstabbin'.

[Toby pulls out a pin and pops a balloon]

Thomas: Wow! How dramatic.

Percy: It is dramatic, Thomas. I think the Dazzlings are not here.

Thomas: Yeah.

Human Applejack: The Dazzlings?

Thomas: Yeah.

Toby: Who are the Dazzlings you speak of, Thomas?

Thomas: The Dazzlings are a group of girls who sing all the time.

Pecry: They are also known as the Sirens.

[Toby's jaw drops]

Charlie: Not the Sirens!?

Thomas: Uh, guys? We need to stick to the script.

Charlie: Oh. Ok.

[Toby clears his throat to say one of Applejack's lines]

Toby: About the only boy in this school you can trust less than Timothy is Gordon.

Percy: Gordon?

Charlie: He's the boyfriend of the captain of, like, every team at Canterlot High.

Thomas: Rainbow Dash. I get it now.

[The human versions of Mike and Zoey come in]

Percy: Mike? Zoey? What are you doing here?

Mike: Nothing. Just heard you guys talking.

Zoey: I heard Charlie said the line what Pinkie Pie said in the Rainbow Rocks movie.

Mike: And we heard some rumours spreading about someone running against Timothy for Fall Formal prince.

Thomas: Yes, Mike. I'm running for Fall Formal prince. I bet Ryan will be so happy for me.

Mike: But you'd better watch your step, pal. Timothy gets pretty snippy about this.

Percy: Yes, Mike. Timothy is a bit like Sunset Shimmer.

Mike: You know her?

Thomas: Yes. Sunset is a student here.

Zoey: She's also a former school bully and Timothy's girlfriend.

Percy: Timothy has a girlfriend?! Oh wow.

Mike: What she means is, Sunset is Timothy's new girlfriend.

Thomas: Wow. You think Sunset would help Timothy run for Prince of the Fall Formal?

Zoey: Not technically.

Sunset Shimmer:[off-screen] I'll help your new friend run for Fall Formal prince, Mike.

[Sunset comes out]

Thomas: Sunset Shimmer! I'm so happy to see you again.

Sunset Shimmer: Me too.

Percy: So, you're Timothy's new boyfriend?

[Sunset nods]

Thomas: I hope you can vote for me in the Fall Formal, Sunset.

Sunset Shimmer: I will.

Evil Ryan:[off-screen] I will too, Sunset.

[Sunset turns]

Evil Ryan: I heard about someone running for prince of the Fall Formal.

Mike: Yep.

Evil Ryan: That's good to hear.[coughs] My friends Bertram and Evil Anna will vote for you, Thomas.

[Thomas beams]

Matau T. Monkey:[comes in] I'll vote for you, Thomas.

Thomas: Matau!

Matau T. Monkey: Yes, it's me. Thomas. I heard some news about you running for Fall Formal prince, so me and my band, Matau and the Skylanders will vote for you.

[Thomas smiles]

Bertram T. Monkey: I'll do the same, my good twin brother.

Toby: [clears his throat to say Applejack's line] Gordon's also the boyfriend of sayin' he's gonna do somethin' for ya, and then turnin' around and not even botherin' to show up.

Evil Anna: Ok, Toby. Thomas and we'll go to Gordon.

Thomas: Ahem. Equestria Girls plotline.

Evil Anna: Ok. You and Percy will go find Gordon. We'll stall Timothy.

Thomas: Okay. Bye.

Evil Ryan: See you, Thomas.

Toby: How did he know my name was Toby?

Evil Ryan: I don't know. Maybe Thomas remembers you?

Human Applejack: It's like how Twilight knew I was Applejack when she first came here.

Bertram T. Monkey: You're right, Applejack. At least two of my friends and I got our pendants.

[Timothy comes in]

Evil Ryan: Oh. Hi, Timothy.

Sunset Shimmer: Hey, Tim.

Matau and Bertram: Tim??

Sunset Shimmer: Short for Timothy.

Bertram T. Monkey: Thanks for telling me, Sunset.[to Timothy] Hi, Timothy. I'm Bertram T. Monkey. Matau's evil twin brother.

Timothy: I know.

Matau T. Monkey: You seems to be happy today, Timothy.[hands Timothy a bottle of cider] Here's a drink.

Timothy: Thanks. This looks pretty good by the way.

Matau T. Monkey: You're welcome. But I hope how much you can taste it.[grabs another bottle of cider and starts drinking it]

Timothy: [zips] Tastes good.

Evil Ryan: I know. Right? I got you less streamers.

Timothy: Thanks.

Bertram T. Monkey: I hope two of my friends and I can sing a song for you. After we are known to sing from time to time.

Timothy: I like how there are fewer balloons too. But I don't appreciate the fact that this cider is fizzie.

Evil Anna: I know what you're going to say.[touches her pendant and starts talking like Sunset Shimmer] This is my coronation not a hoedown.

Timothy: Correct.

Sunset Shimmer: You took the words right of my mouth, Evil Anna.

Charlie: Well, you're wrong. The new boy signed up.

Evil Ryan: You may know that a friend of Ryan is running for prince of the Fall Formal.

Timothy: What?!

Matau T. Monkey: You know that Thomas' hand writing needs a work. Maybe Master Ryan will train him.

Timothy: Where is this Thomas?

Matau T. Monkey: I don't know where he is. [to Evil Ryan, Bertram and Evil Anna] C'mon you three. Sing to Timothy!

[Out in the corridoor]

Percy: I hope that those two boys and a girl can distract Timothy, Thomas.

Timothy: Hello, newbies.

Thomas: Uh oh. He's on to us. Run!!

Timothy: Oh, no need.

[Thomas and Percy zips off leaving a cloud behind]

Timothy: Hey! [runs after them]

Thomas: I thought Timothy would be under their spell, Percy.

Percy: Turns out he's immune.

Thomas: Oh. Split up!

[They run down separate corridoors. Timothy goes after Thomas]

Evil Ryan:[runs after Timothy] Timothy, Stop!!

[Timothy corners Thomas]

Evil Ryan: You leave Thomas alone.[grabs Timothy] I knew Ryan's friend Optimus send him here.

Timothy: So you're Optimus' new chosen one?

Evil Ryan: No. Ryan is.[to Thomas] Go find Percy, Thomas. I'll hold him off.

Timothy: I was talking to Thomas. This film has the Equestria Girls plotline.

Evil Ryan: Let me handle this, Timothy. Go find your friends.

Timothy: [pulls free]

Evil Ryan: Sorry about that, Thomas. Timothy should be safe back on Cybertron.

Timothy: [to Thomas] Well, you're Optimus' new chosen one?

Thomas: No. I'm Ryan's friend. Ryan F-Freeman is the new chosen one.

Timothy: But you're a Train-Prime who had been presumed dead after your home-planet's destruction.

Ryan F-Freeman:[off-screen] I have to tell you I'm his friend, Timothy.

Timothy: Whatever.

Thomas: I mean. Look, Timothy. Behind you.
