We all have ideas that don't seem to become anything or maybe lead to something. Here is a collection of my Bits and Pieces in the Thunderbirds Universe. These can be TOS, TAG or Movie.
Thunderbirds Does not belong to me, they belong to ITV and The Andersons.
But they are fun to play with.
This first short fic was written because I lost a bet, and so is a present for my friend SatNavDan.
Before It Blows Away
"Thunderbird five to Thunderbird Two. Come in please, Virgil."
"Thunderbird Two here John, what's up?"
"I've just had a communication. The message was pretty broken up, all I could make out were the words, 'get here, quick! Before it blows away', then the line went dead."
"You sure this is an emergency, John? The voice could have been speaking about anything?" Virgil knew that his brother would not be calling him unnecessarily, but to head off on a mission on such a small amount of information didn't seem wise.
"The voice sounded very concerned." John responded calmly, his hologram floating above the control panel of Thunderbird Two. "I've managed to obtain the co-ordinates of where the call came from. Your closest so I want you to check it out."
"F.A.B., John." Turing the steering frame to port, Virgil felt his lady respond to the gentle movement of his hands. Hopefully John just miss heard whatever this voice had said, and it was nothing to be concerned about.
Thunderbird Two flew gracefully across the stratosphere, sweeping the tops of the cloud with her reverse facing wings. The sunlight glinting off the water vapour sweeping over the dark green paint as Virgil made his way to the danger zone.
"Thunderbird Five to Thunderbird Two, Virgil, I can see your arriving at the co-ordinates. Can you see anything."
Virgil tilted Thunderbird Two slightly so he could look out of the windows before him. Below Thunderbird Two the golden sands of the Sahara stretched out for miles. But looking again, Virgil realised that he was actually seeing something, something upon the sands.
"John, next time Gordon is on Thunderbird Five, remind me to drain the pool." John's hologram reappeared above Thunderbird Two's dashboard, a cheeky grin and glint in his eyes.
"You'll have to remind yourself. I'm not risking anything happening to my lady."
Virgil shook his head, planning silently grinning to himself as he thought how he could get both siblings back to for this. Looking back out of the window, he reread the words written in the sand "TB2 is a big green flying bean!"
A few days earlier Virgil had dropped Gordon off on safari holiday in Africa. Though as the evidence below showed, Gordon was up to more than just viewing the local wildlife.
"John, I think you and Gordon are now due pay back, big time!"
John remained silent, as Virgil began to turn his 'Green Bean' back for Tracy Island. Thoughts and plans turning over in his mind.
