Down to the hanger to see TB2

In Virgil's point of view

I really don't know how I am going to react when Scott arrives to take me down to see TB2. Don't get me wrong I want to see her but I am really scared to see the damage. I know it will take weeks for TB2 to get repaired but Scott is right when he said that I would be dying to get her back in the air. Yes I might have told my fears to Scott but it doesn't stop me thinking them when I am on my own. So half an hour later Scott arrives to take me down to see TB2. I wondered what was keeping him as he arrived 15 minutes late, the only reason I can think of is that Father had kept him back. I hear another knock on my bedroom door to my surprise it was Scott and Gordon together.

"Come in."

"Are you ready for going down to see Two?"

"Kinda but I feel a bit nervous about going down there, I don't know what state she is in and I really don't want to go down there. I know I have to."

"You will be fine Virg, TB2 is still your baby. You will have a say in all the repairs being done to her, Brains won't do anything until he gets your go ahead. We are here to help you Virg, I am just here to help Scott in case you faint on him after seeing Two" said Gordon

"Do you both really think I am going to be that bad? It's only been a couple of weeks and I am not likely to lose it if I see Two the way she is. I know that Brains is doing his best and I trust him but there is the wee things that I need to be there to do."

"You heard Dad Virgil, he wants you to take it easy for another week or so. Once you have rested then you can help out with Two," said Scott with his arms folded across his chest.

"Scott I hate to break this to you but I can't stay in this bed any longer, I need to be doing something."

"Then we will talk to Dad after you have been down to see TB2, I don't have a problem with you going back to duty but doing nice light ones."

"How can I go back on duty if TB2 is out of action? And no before you say it I am not going up to Five to make myself useful."

"Wow were we saying anything Scott?"

"No Virgil that isn't an option I want to be able to keep a close eye on you, anyway let's get you down to Two so that you could have a good look at her. TinTin and Brains are still down there so I don't know if they will let you into her anyway."

We made our way down to the hanger, when we got there it was in darkness apart from the light coming from the inside of Two herself. Scott and Gordon both stood on either side of me in case something were to happen.

"Virgil I am just going in to check that it's okay for you to come in and look around," said Scott

"Okay Virgil, now that Scott has gone what has been eating you? Gordon demanded. I know that you want to go in there!"

"I am just scared Gordon that's all."

"Of what? You are going to be fine and so is Two, you have nothing to worry about."

Just before Scott had come and given us the go ahead to go inside Alan had turned up after taking TinTin for a break. It looked like they had been both down at the beach and when they came up Alan decided that he would give both Brains and TinTin a hand with whatever they were doing. Once the three of us walked into TB2 I couldn't believe the mess that she was in but it looked as if TB2 was on its way to being restored again thanks to both TinTin and Brains. Now I really can't wait to get her back in the air, I have been missing my baby.

The End
