Chapter 1
"Base from Thunderbird 1. Test flight complete, requesting permission to land." Evie said into her earpiece. She had taken Thunderbird 1 on a test flight around the Island to test the upgrades she made to the engines.
"Permission granted Thunderbird 1. And there is a little man who is waiting to see you." G's voice called out, making Evie laugh as she watched the pool open to reveal the silver and blue 'bird's silo. She quickly did the post flight checks before making notes on her paperwork and checking the readouts from the 'bird. She headed up to Jeff's office with the paperwork, still writing notes, when a small body crashed into her legs, making her look down in shock.
"Hi Dominic!" She exclaimed, bending down and picking her son up. "What are you doing up here?"
"I was taking him to see Mummy, when he decided to try and walk on his own." G said, walking up to them. He gave his wife a quick kiss before picking up the paperwork she dropped. "So, everything go ok?"
"Yeah. I just need to make a few adjustments and she should be ready to go." Evie said with a smile. They filed the paperwork before heading down to the pool deck, seeing all of Evie's brother's in the pool. "Well, at least you waited until I landed." She said with a laugh.
"Hey Evie! I think you need to practice your flying skills. I'm pretty sure I saw you nearly stall up there." Scott said, before he was suddenly pulled under the water. He resurfaced, glaring at his sister, whose outstretched hand let him know that she used her powers to pull him under.
"Scott Carpenter Tracy, if you want to be able to have kids, then keep your mouth shut. You know very well that I have to push the 'birds to their max to see what I need to change." She snapped, putting Dominic in the playpen that was kept under the shade of the umbrella. "Where's Dad?"
"He left while you were in the silos. Something about an important meeting in LA." Virgil said, pulling himself out of the pool.
"Hey, can you tell John to get his butt out of the silos? We haven't seen him all day!" Alan said, looking up from where he and Gordon were throwing a ball.
"John's in Boston. He left this morning." G said, looking at his brother-in-law with a frown.
"What? I thought he said that he wasn't going anywhere until he goes back to 5?" Gordon said, swimming over to the side of the pool.
"Apparently he had some business to take care of." Virgil said, leaning over the playpen and playing with Dominic.
"What business?" Alan asked, looking at Evie to see her smirking. "Alright sis, what do you know?"
"Well, you know how I have to do a monthly review of the computers on 5?" She asked, waiting until they all nodded before continuing. "Well, that gives me access to the whole computer system up there, and I can see what they have been used for, as well as revisiting some websites that are used. Last month's review, I found a little website that John has been visiting very often."
"What sort of website?" Scott asked, frowning at his sister.
"Let's just say, that there may be another female Tracy soon." She said with a smirk, making the boys grin. "Right, I am going to do some more adjustments to 1. Brains and I have an idea on how to make her go even faster."
"Wait, making 1 go faster? Doesn't she go fast enough already?" Virgil asked, frowning at his sister.
"Not fast enough. When rescues come down to timings, then we need to be as fast as possible. Every second counts in our line of work." She said, walking towards the door, only for G's arms to wrap around her waist.
"They can wait until tomorrow. We haven't seen you all day. Dominic misses spending time with his Mummy." He said, making the Tracy's behind them smirk.
"Alright. I guess it can wait." She replied, only to turn around when they hear someone cheering.
"Yeah! Gordon, pay up!" Alan exclaimed, making everyone else frown. "We made a bet on how long it would take G to convince you to take a break. Turns out, not that long!"
"Watch it Sprout. I can make your life very uncomfortable." Evie said with a laugh.

John opened his eyes and frowned, not recognising the light brown wall in front of him. As he gradually woke up, he remembered the events of the night before and smile, turning over to see the warm body that was next to him. His smile grew even wider as he wrapped his arm around her and pulled her closer to him. He inhaled the scent of strawberries that seemed to linger in her hair and thought about how they got to where they were. They had met online nearly 2 months ago when John decided to join an online dating site. Since he spent his time either in space, on the Island or at one of Tracy enterprise's buildings, he didn't have a lot of time to socialise and find a girl. The good thing about the dating website, is the only details it gave out was a first name and a short bio that the person writes. It doesn't even show anyone a picture until the other person sends one. The first time John sent this woman a picture of him, was the day before they met for the first time. He needed to make sure that she liked him for him, and not for his last name.
"Mmm. Morning." She murmured as she woke up, turning her head to look at him.
"Good morning." John said back with a bright smile. "I have to say, that wasn't how I thought the evening was going to end." He said with a chuckle.
"Me either." She laughed, smiling up at him. "But I wouldn't change it if I could."
"How about breakfast?" He said, sitting up and getting ready to get out of the bed, when a hand on his chest stopped him.
"Do you even know where anything is in my kitchen?" She asked, laughing when he frowned. "Thought not. You, stay put. I will go and make breakfast." She said, standing up and pulling John's shirt over her head before walking out of the room. John smiled and lay back, only to sit up when he heard his phone beep. He got up and pulled his boxers on before pulling his phone out of his jeans. He opened the text that Evie sent him and smirked as he read it.
Hey Star, I know I said to have a good time, but not that good a time! When do I get to meet this woman? You do know that I have been reading all of your messages, right? Or did you forget about the computer review I do? Oh, and if you didn't want us to know, try not to have sex in the apartment next to one of my informants. Boy was that an awkward conversation! Don't forget that you need to go back to your lab tonight. Tintin will kill you if you make her stay longer. Have fun bro!
"What are you laughing at?" Was whispered in his ear as two slender arms wrapped around his waist.
"Just a message from my sister. She wants to meet you." He said, leaning into her embrace.
"I thought you hadn't told anyone about us?" She asked, resting her chin on his shoulder.
"I haven't, but I forgot that she does a review of all the computers in my lab, and she saw the messages." He said, turning his head to give her a kiss. He decided to leave out the information about Evie's informant, deciding to save the embarrassment.
"What time do you have to go?" She asked, running a hand down his arm.
"Not till 3." He said, smiling at her. "What time are you on shift?"
"4. So, do you want to go out for lunch, or just lay here in bed?" She asked, smiling at him.
"Hmm…. You know what, the bed sounds very nice." He said, grabbing her arms and rolling onto the bed with her still clinging to his back. Her laughter made his smile grow even bigger.
Here's the first chapter guys! Don't worry, John's little lady will be introduced in the next chapter.
