Chapter 1

The 24-year-old scrambled to her feet. A second loud explosion rang out across the area. She heard her name being called 'Kimberly!'
'Over here dad.' She replied shakily. Suddenly her father appeared at her side.
'Are you ok?'
'Sure just a bit shaken up, but nothing broken only a few bruises.' She reported.
'Okay, but I want you to head back to two, I think Virgil could do with a hand with some of the casualties, myself, Gordon and Scott will carry on here.'
'FAB, dad.'

Kimberly Tracy turned away from her father and broke into a jog across the rubble heading for Thunderbird Two and her younger brother, Virgil.
Arriving at the big green ship Kim hurried up the ramp to join Virgil in the medical bay where he was already tending to yet another casualty that their brother Gordon had just brought in.
'What's the count so far, Virg?' She requested.
'I think I lost count around 50, are you ok?' Came the reply from the 20-year-old.
'Yeah, I'm fine, why do you ask?'
'It's just that your flight suit is ripped.'
Kim glanced down and indeed saw a rip in the knee of the white fabric. The blue edges were also covered in dirt and dust from the rescue scene. 'Ah ok then well yeah I'm fine just a few bruises but nothing to worry about.' She replied, grabbing a medical kit from the cabinet and heading off to tend to the next casualty.

About 8 hours later the Thunderbird where nearly back at the isolated tropical island in the south pacific that they called home. Kim leaned back in her seat, running her mind over the events of the last 12 hours. They had been called out to an explosion at a power station that had caused a village in rural France to have structural damage to most of the buildings. They hadn't been able to save everybody.
'Thinking 'bout the rescue?' Her twin brother, Scott's voice, broke through her thoughts. Kim nodded mutely. 'You know we can't save everybody don't you?' Her twin told her as he guided Thunderbird one into her hanger underneath the swimming pool.
Kim opened her mouth to answer but was saved by her stomach rumbling. She chuckled.
'Hungry already, Kimmy?' Scott teased.
'Shut up kiddo, bet you are too.' She replied as his rumbled too.
'So I am but that is no reason to call me kiddo' Scott shot back.
'Yeah but I'm older so you're all kids to me.' The twins both broke into laughter as they left the hanger to clean up after the rescue.
