Transcript

 * Narrator: Spike the Dragon enjoys arranging changelings. He can move them harder and faster than any other animal. It's one of his favorite jobs. One morning, Hoity Toity had an important announcement.
 * Hoity Toity: Cranky and Shining Armor must make extra deliveries of coal.
 * Narrator: He boomed.
 * Hoity Toity: Spike, you must the changelings ready at the coaling plant. Cranky and Shining Armor, you must collect them this afternoon.
 * Narrator: Spike was very pleased. Just then, Snips and Snails chuffed by. Between them was a big, blue minotaur. It was biffing and bashing the little unicorns.
 * Spike: What are you two doing?
 * Narrator: Said Spike. Snips and Snails told him they were delivering the minotaur to the coaling plant.
 * Spike: Why does it need two animals to deliver one truck?
 * Narrator: Asked Spike.
 * Snails: Because he really doesn't like to work with animals.
 * Narrator: Chuffed Snails.
 * Snips: His name is Iron Will.
 * Narrator: Huffed Snips.
 * Snips: But we call him Iron Will the Horrid.
 * Narrator: Snips and Snails chuffed slowly away with Iron Will.
 * Cranky Doodle Donkey: He does look troublesome.
 * Narrator: Huffed Cranky.
 * Spike: Troublesome creatures don't worry me.
 * Narrator: Boasted Spike.
 * Spike: I could get him firmly into place.
 * Narrator: Later, Spike chuffed into the coaling plant. And there was Iron Will. The changelings giggled and laughed.
 * Changelings: Big, bad, strong and solid! That minotaur's name is Iron Will the Horrid!
 * Narrator: They sang. Spike puffed closer.
 * Iron Will: KEEP AWAY!
 * Narrator: Roared Iron Will.
 * Spike: Snips and Snails were right.
 * Narrator: Thought Spike.
 * Spike: Iron Will is scary. And Iron Will is horrid.
 * Narrator: Spike decided to keep away. Spike spent the morning arranging the changelings and giving them coal. All the time, Spike could feel Iron Will the Horrid watching him. The coaling plant manager came to see Spike.
 * Coaling Plant Manager: We need an extra large delivery.
 * Narrator: He said.
 * Coaling Plant Manager: So Pinkie Pie is coming to help you. You must arrange Iron Will, then add him to the back of Cranky's line of changelings.
 * Narrator: He told Spike. Later, Pinkie Pie puffed into the yard. She saw Iron Will.
 * Pinkie Pie: Do we have to arrange that big minotaur, Spike?
 * Narrator: She asked sweetly.
 * Spike: Yes.
 * Narrator: Puffed Spike.
 * Spike: But he doesn't want to be arranged. His name is...
 * Narrator: But before Spike could finish, Iron Will opened his mouth and let out the biggest roar ever.
 * Iron Will: KEEP AWAY!
 * Narrator: He bellowed. Pinkie Pie was so surprised, she shook from head to hoof, and she ran straight out of the yard. This made Spike cross. Iron Will had biffed and bashed Snips and Snails, he had shouted at Spike and he had frightened Pinkie Pie so much that she had ran away. Now, the extra delivery would never be ready. Spike had had enough. He puffed up bravely in front of Iron Will and gave him a mighty biff. Iron Will lurched backwards. He was very cross.
 * Iron Will: KEEP AWAY!
 * Narrator: He roared.
 * Spike: No I won't.
 * Narrator: Said Spike crossly.
 * Spike: You are causing confusion and delay. You really are horrid.
 * Narrator: Then with one mighty biff, Spike sent Iron Will lurching backwards into a set of buffers. Iron Will crashed off the road. Spike felt very bad. He hadn't meant to knock Iron Will over. Spike puffed up to Iron Will. Iron Will lay on his side, looking very sad. Now Iron Will didn't seem so horrid.
 * Spike: I'm sorry I biffed you so hard.
 * Narrator: Wheezed Spike.
 * Spike: But why don't you want to be arranged?
 * Iron Will: Because I'm scared.
 * Narrator: Moaned Iron Will.
 * Spike: Why?
 * Narrator: Asked Spike.
 * Iron Will: I'm new.
 * Narrator: He groaned.
 * Iron Will: And I'm scared because I haven't been worked with coal before. I don't know what it feels like. That's why I didn't want to be arranged.
 * Narrator: He added. Spike was surprised. Later, Bulk Biceps and the workmen arrived and put Iron Will back onto the road. Spike wanted to help Iron Will.
 * Spike: Sometimes I'm scared when I have to do something new.
 * Narrator: He chuffed.
 * Spike: But coal isn't scary.
 * Narrator: Iron Will watched as Spike went to the coal hopper. Black, dusty coal poured into Spike's box. When the dust settled, Iron Will saw that Spike was smiling.
 * Spike: See, it's not scary.
 * Narrator: Said Spike proudly. Now Iron Will was excited.
 * Iron Will: I'd like to be filled with coal, too.
 * Narrator: He rumbled.
 * Spike: We must hurry.
 * Narrator: Huffed Spike. Spike pulled Iron Will quickly under the coal hopper. Iron Will was quickly given some coal. It felt wonderful. Then Spike arranged Iron Will into place just in time. Cranky and Shining Armor puffed into the yard. They saw their waiting lines of changelings. Cranky was very surprised to see Iron Will at the back.
 * Cranky Doodle Donkey: Well done, Spike.
 * Narrator: Snorted Cranky. The lines were soon hooked up. Cranky and Shining Armor puffed away for their special deliveries. They were very surprised to hear Spike shout...
 * Spike: Good luck.
 * Narrator: But the shout wasn't for them. It was Spike shouting to his new friend, "Iron Will The Not Horrid At All".
