BONUS CHAPTER
A few years after TinTin moved to Tracy Island…
TINTIN POV
The Hood has finally been put behind bars once and for all. These past few weeks have been tough on us all. John and Alan were only allowed out of the infirmary yesterday. Stephanie had a bad time too. She was locked in Thunderbird Two's fridge for a couple of hours. Luckily John and Virgil found her before it was too late. Anyways, in a few hours we are having a celebration. This is just our final release of being free of the Thunderbirds main enemy, The Hood. Lady Penelope arrived a few hours ago. Apparently Lady P and Stephanie are going to help me get ready for the party. I am not pretty and I know that they can not make me pretty. Both Lady Penelope and Stephanie are beautiful women. John is a lucky guy with Stephanie as his fiancée. Lately, I find myself becoming really close with the youngest Tracy, Alan. You know, it's probably just puberty blues but I can't help but notice how attractive he is. He has the perfect body, perfect hair, gorgeous eyes, and soft lips. I wonder how they would feel on mine…
Wait WHAT!?
Why am I having these thoughts?! One moment I am thinking about how we stopped the Hood, and the next, I am daydreaming about kissing him!? Maybe Stephanie is right. Maybe I do have a crush on him. Okay no I admit it, I do. I do have a crush on him. I know that he wouldn't feel the same way though. Even though a few years ago he said he might have loved me, I think that whole scenario has blown over know. We were only like… 12? Now we're 15 and things are a little different. Even if he did notice me and like me like that, I am sure he would go and pick someone else. He always has girls hanging off him. But he always pushes them away, even the really pretty ones. He could do much better than me anyways.
"TinTin!" Stephanie called. "Time to get ready!" I groaned. Great. Just what I need right now.
"Okay! I'm coming!" I called back. I reluctantly got out of the sun lounger and headed into the kitchen to grab a drink. Then Stephanie dragged me up to Lady Penelope's room. As she dragged me away, I caught Alan looking at me. I smiled and waved at him. He went slightly red in the face and waved back.
"The party doesn't start for another two hours! Why do we need to get ready now!?" I exclaimed once we reached Lady Penelope's room.
"Because you need to look good." Stephanie said.
"And you need to make an impression on the youngest Tracy!" Lady Penelope called from the bathroom.
"But we're only friends." I blurted out.
"That's what they all say." Stephanie commented shaking her head.
"Into the shower TinTin!" Lady Penelope said. My god. I hate makeovers, dressing up and everything like that. Please kill me now, what have I gotten myself into! I slipped my clothes off and stepped into Lady Penelope's very pink shower. I washed my hair, washed my body brushed my teeth and so forth until I deemed my self that I was clean enough. The whole time I was in the shower I thought about the event those few weeks ago in the bank…
Finally, I got rid of Transom. Now I have to find Alan. I sprinted in the direction that Alan went. I spotted Lady Penelope and Jeff in a cage type thing. Similar to the one I left that stupid woman in. I looked up and I swear my heart stopped. There was Alan hanging above the mole which had been switched on with only one arm to the walkway. I spot my uncle - He doesn't even deserve to be called my uncle - stamping on Alan's hand. Alan cried out in pain. He was slowly losing his grip. No. Not Alan.
"NO!" I shout. The Hood, obviously surprised turned and faced me. I used my power on him. He tried to control me but he failed. I flipped the walkway and Alan was safe. Thank god. I collapsed to the ground. Next thing I know, someones arms go around me and they bury their face in the crook of my neck. I knew then that it was Alan. I smiled knowing he would help me.
"TinTin?! You still with me?" Stephanie said clicking her fingers in front of my face. I snap back into reality.
"Oh sorry. I kinda zoned out there." I stood wrapped in a towel.
"It's alright. Now come on, I picked out a swimsuit for you." Stephanie passed me a package. I opened it. Inside was a swimming costume that was to my taste. First off it would over my torso (I hate wearing bikinis) and it was actually something I would wear all the time. It was a suit which was predominately a navy blue colour, except for the bust, which had red and white strips. It's straps connected at the back of my neck. It looked like a dress, which I also liked about it.
"Thank you! I love it!"
"Not a problem. I knew you would like it! Put it on." She said smiling. Since it was just Stephanie at the present moment, I felt no shame in letting my towel slide to the floor so I could pull on my costume. Stephanie turned away to give me some privacy. I pulled it all the way up. It was the right size thankfully. The skirt ended halfway down my thigh which, I guess isn't that bad.
"Stephanie, could you help tie the straps please?" I asked. She turned back and smiled. As she tied the ties she said to me:
"You have a wonderful body TinTin. You should show it off more often." I blushed and said thank you. Stephanie disappeared into the bathroom just as Lady Penelope came back into the room.
"You look lovely TinTin." She said.
"Thank you." I replied.
"I'm going to go and help Onaha and Jeff now. Tell Stephanie that her swimsuit is on the bed. See you in a bit."
"Okay!"
I now sat in a chair. I decided to leave my hair out. I brushed through it carefully. I just put some strawberry scented lip gloss on. Stephanie should come out of the bathroom…
On cue, Stephanie walks out with her towel wrapped tightly around her. "Lady Penelope said she left your swimmers on the bed."
"Okay, thanks." She said. I heard her groan as she put them on. When she appeared again I looked at her.
"You look amazing!" And that she did. She wore swim shorts (that were really short!) and what looked like a sports bra. Her stomach was exposed which showed me that she had a six pack. Her arm muscles were also defined. I think she could beat the guys easily. "Wow, you have some muscle girl!"
She looked at the ground and blushed a little. "It's from all of my swim training. I haven't worn anything like this in years." She said looking at herself in the mirror. She brushed her hair and put the similar lip gloss to mine on. Finally she pulled on one of Johns shirts. "Let's go get this party started!" She yelled happily grabbing my arm. "You should reveal yourself to Alan first, at the opportune moment." She whispered in my ear.
"Are you turning into Jack Sparrow?!" I asked giggling.
"Miss TinTin! We have our heading!" She said imitating Jack Sparrow's voice. I started to laugh. Stephanie headed outside whilst I headed out a different way.
GENERAL POV
All the Tracy boys besides Alan where splashing about in the pool. Fermat was on the side with his dad practicing his swimming. Suddenly music started to play as Jeff and Lady Penelope walked out. "You look beautiful Lady Penelope!" Gordon yelled out. She snickered. Jeff began to cook up a storm on the BBQ. He and Penelope started chatting about Margaritas and other topics.
The song changed, And Stephanie walked out. She was wearing one of John's shirts over the top of her swimmers. No one really noticed since they were to busy trying to drown each other. She walked over to Lady Penelope. "Thanks for the swimmers. They look great." She said.
"Not a problem. Make sure you show of that body of yours more darling." Was her reply. Stephanie blushed slightly. Stephanie walked back over to the sun lounger with John's stuff on it.
"Are you going to join us in the pool?" John asked, finally spotting her. He grinned when he noticed she was wearing one of his shirts.
"Yeah okay." She stood up and turned her back to everyone. Slowly, she took John's shirt off. Revealing that she was wearing a bikini. She never wore those. She turned back around and John's mouth dropped in seeing her abs and arm muscles. All the other boys - Minus Jeff, Fermat, Alan and Brains - were also staring at her. She grinned. "What are you all looking at? Maybe I should have gone on Next Top Model Lady Penelope." Stephanie said laughing. Penelope laughed with her. The boys snapped out of their daze and went back to splashing each other playfully.
Stephanie walked over to the edge and sat on the edge. John came to the side and pulled her into the pool carefully. She wrapped her legs around his waist. "You look beautiful." He whispered into her ear. She looked up at him and kissed him lightly on the lips.
"Thank you. She says.
Alan watched as Fermat got out of the pool. "Nice job Fermat. You are going to be a really good swimmer before you know it!" He called out. Fermat put his thumbs up and smiled. I wonder where TinTin is…
"So what do you think?!" TinTin asked Alan spinning around and stopping behind him.
Alan had yet to turn around. "He's getting there." Then he turned around to see TinTin grinning at him. Then he noticed what she was wearing and his jaw dropped but her quickly snapped that back up.
"Whoa TinTin. You look… Umm.. You're just really um.. blossoming." He said deciding to take a note out of Fermat's book.
"Eww. Did you just say 'blossoming'?" She asked with a funny look on her face.
"I mean.. you know… You look beautiful, brilliant…" He stuttered. He looked around trying to find an escape and didn't notice TinTin smile slightly. She decided to pretend to be upset with his response.
"Oh Alan why can't you just spit it out? If you can't tell me what you honestly think about my new swimsuit then I maybe just have to ask one of your brothers." She said walking towards him. Before she could go past, Alan reached out (on impulse), grabbed her shoulders, leant down and kissed her full on the mouth.
TinTin was stunned. Before you could say anything, TinTin was kissing back with the same amount of enthusiasm as Alan. She sighed, wrapping her arms around his neck. Alan's hands slipped around her waist.
All other moment ceased when everyone noticed Alan and TinTin in a embrace. His brothers just stared at them wondering what had just transpired. Stephanie grinned at the pair. Lady Penelope looked over at them with a knowing smile on her face. Jeff also looked and what he saw surprised him.
"Alan and TinTin huh? It appears you were right about them Penny. And I definitely didn't see it coming." He said while smiling.
"No you wouldn't Jeff" She replied.
Fermat stood there grinning at his friends. He knew that this would happen at some point. Onaha and Kyrano looked over and smiled when they caught their daughter and the youngest Tracy in their embrace. Onaha eyes were glittering with unshed tears. Even Parker had succumbed to his emotions and was dabbing his eyes with his handkerchief.
Finally, Alan pulled away and looked at TinTin. He felt happier than he had in a long while. "There, how was that for expressing my feelings. Or would you like me to show you again?"
TinTin giggled. "Perfect." Was all she said looking into his eyes. Their arms were still in the same position that they were in before.
Then of course, Alan's brothers decided it would be time to interrupt the moment.
"Alright lover boy. Enough with all the lovey dovey stuff." Scott said jokingly. Gordon wrapped his hand around Alan's left arm. Scotts around his right.
"But John and Steph do it too!" Alan blurted out.
"Now we want to celebrate." Gordon said. They pulled him into the pool. TinTin laughed as they continued with there mock drownings. She watched Alan curiously. Since being dragged into the pool, he had taken off his now wet shirt and thrown it off to the side. She didn't realise that she was staring at him.
"Enjoying the view TinTin?" Stephanie called out. Her cheeks flushed in embarrassment. "You going to join us in the pool?"
"Maybe later."
She walked over and spoke with Lady Penelope and Jeff. Suddenly a wet pair of arms hugged her waist and she squealed. Everyone laughed as Alan walked her over to the side of the pool.
"Now, I wouldn't be a nice person if I threw you in, so I am going to let you climb in yourself." He said to her grinning.
"Oh you're such a gentleman." She got into the pool and instantly found herself in Alan's arms, and his lips on hers. Once again, they caught everyones attention… Well except John and Stephanie who were in their own embrace. Not that TinTin cared or anything.
"Again seriously?!" Gordon said splashing water at them. TinTin and Alan came apart giggling. They splashed water back and then began to splash each other.
John and Stephanie were at the edge of the pool, foreheads touching. They were talking quietly when Stephanie spotted Virgil heading their way. She easily slipped out of John's embrace and swam underwater popping up behind Virgil quietly. SPLASH! Stephanie sent a wave of water over Virgil and made John laugh.
Jeff rang a little bell. "Gather around. I have an announcement to make." Everyone gathered around him. Stephanie, Alan, TinTin and Fermat stood opposite John, Virgil, Scott and Gordon. Jeff began to speak. "Tonight is a special night. We are here, all together, now all recovered and in full strength because of some very special people. Fermat, TinTIn, Alan, Stephanie." They stepped forward and looked at him half worried, half excited. "The world needs Thunderbirds and the Thunderbirds need you." The others smiled. With that He stepped forward with their International rescue pins.
"Mr Tracy!" Fermat gasped as the pin was placed on his shirt.
Her place TinTin's in her palm. "Thank you sir."
"Congratulations Alan." He said placing the pin in his sons palm. "No short cuts, you earned it. You all did."
"Thanks dad." He said.
"I believe this now belongs to you Miss Stephanie." He said placing the last pin in her hand.
"Thank you." She said hugging him.
"Way to go Sprout!" Scott said.
"That's my boy Alan!" Gordon said. The other Tracy boys grabbed the newest members and they all jumped back into the pool. Mucking around again.
A few minutes later Jeff's phone went off. "Yes madam President… Of course straight away." He turned back. "Boys, Steph TinTin." He called. They all jumped out of the pool and headed straight for his office. "Sorry Penny. Duty calls."
"Of course it does. And quite right too."
In front of their portraits with their uniform was each of the original Thunderbirds members excluding Jeff: Scott, Virgil, Gordon and John. They looked across at the newest members beside them smiling slightly: Alan, TinTin and Stephanie, also in uniform and smiling widely. Fermat sat at the main computer with his hands flying over the keys. He was smiling too. Finally Jeff turned around. He looked each of his boys plus TinTin and Stephanie directly in the eye before saying, "THUNDERBIRDS ARE GO!" They stepped backwards as their panels slid away revealing elevators. They all grabbed the railing and looked up and their doors closed.
The Thunderbirds took off and went to save the day again.
