Wyld Stallion- Having her become a Mary-Sue is the last thing I want. I've read a few in various fandoms and they drive me bonkers! I've made sure that Evelyn has plenty of realistic flaws so that she is anything but perfect and will hopefully seem somewhat normal. Well, as normal as she can be for being a Tracy. And as far as Jeff being overprotective of her, a lot of why he is will come to light in this chapter and the next.

Little Miss Bump- When I saw that you reviewed me literally squealed because you're one of the authors that first caught my attention when I found the Thunderbirds section. And you've had me hooked since. Your family fluff is priceless. XD Yeah I was sad writing the prologue which is set about three days or so before Lucille's death. Yeah, I saw it when I was younger and fell back in love with it when I found the DVD at Wal-Mart last year.

4is-Thanks! Glad you liked it!

Samantha Tragedy-Thanks. Yeah, it's just an incredible movie with a beautiful soundtrack and just watching it one day when the idea for this story came about and it just clicked to how that song fit the story. So I did my best to feature it right off the bat. She's is defiantly not perfect and she has many flaw that plenty of people have. As I said to Wyld Stallion, I'm trying to make her as normal as possible.

And to all four of you, thanks so much for reviewing! It means a lot to me.

Chapter One-He Did What?
December 12th, 2019

In Boston, Massachusetts winter had come with a vengeance. Several feet of snow and chilling winds during the day made many people glad that they were inside. Though for the students of the University of Massachusetts who were taking their last finals before the winter break, inside was the last place that they wanted to be. Eighteen year old Evelyn Tracy was one who was torn between hating being inside away from the snow or wanting to be out there and away from the English final she was currently completing.

As the young copper headed women looked down at the last question on her final, she knew she would much rather be outside in the snow that served as a painful reminder of what had happened to her mother ten years ago. As she glanced out the window to see more snow falling outside, she came to the conclusion that she would much rather be taking her history final again for at least that was a subject she was decent at.

Looking down at her paper once more, Evelyn groaned. She was in way over her head. She wasn't even sure what the question was asking. How was she supposed to answer the question when she couldn't even understand the question? She glanced up at the clock to see it was a quarter to four. She had to get out of there soon or she would miss the bus. If she missed it then she would have to walk to her apartment a couple blocks over and that was the last thing that she wanted to do.

Making up her mind, Evelyn stood from her seat, moved to the front of the classroom and set the final down on the desk before returning to her seat and began packing up her things. Finishing as quickly as she could, Evelyn all but bolted out of the classroom. Heaving a relieved sigh as the door closed quietly behind her, Evelyn began to walk towards the nearest exit of the campus where she knew a bus stop waited to take her apartment.

As fresh snowflakes fell onto her hair she pulled her small purse out of her backpack and began rummaging through it to find her beanie. As she pulled the light blue hat out of her purse, she caught sight of the lit display of her cell phone. She pulled on her beanie with a furrowed brow before pulling out her phone. Seven missed calls? What the?

Flipping open the phone, she pressed the button to show who had tried to call her during class. Five missed calls from her father and two from Lady Penelope. Before she could push the button to listen to the voice messages, the phone began to vibrate. The caller ID flashed up a picture of a blond woman over ten years older than Evelyn. Evelyn pushed the answer button and put the phone up to her ear.

"Hi Lady Penelope. What's with the phone messages from you and my dad?" Evelyn asked as she once more began walking along the walkway that led to the exit.

"I've been asked to come and get you Evelyn," the British agent replied in a serious tone that Evelyn didn't often hear out of the pink loving Lady. "There's been an accident."

Evelyn stopped in her tracks, all color draining from her face. She shivered slightly, but it was not due to the cold. She swallowed before asking, "Who?"

"There's been an accident at Alan's school," Penelope replied. Evelyn felt somewhat relived to hear that something hadn't happened on a rescue but she also became worried about her younger brother. Before she could ask Penelope continued. "Seems that one of the students in the schools chemistry class this afternoon mixed to wrong chemicals causing the building to catch fire."

"He did what?!" Evelyn cried into her phone. She began walking once more but ten times faster then she had been going before.

"No one has been blamed yet but your father also seems to think that it was Alan," Penelope replied.

"He was probably daydreaming again. From what I hear he does that quite often," Evelyn commented mostly to herself as she approached the bus stop. She heard the older women agree with her as she thought, probably does it just as often as he does. But you're lucky. You have college as a distraction.

"Parker and I are approaching your apartment now," Penelope stated. Evelyn glanced down the street and saw the bus approaching.

"I'll be there in about ten minutes Lady Penelope. The code is still the same so can you have Parker grab the dark blue duffle out of the hall closet and make sure Nefi has enough food and water?" she asked, beginning to fidget as she watched the bus get closer and closer but not nearly quickly enough for her taste.

"Nefi?" Penelope asked. Evelyn could hear the smile in her voice. "Is that the stray you found?"

"Yes. Her full name is Nefertiti," Evelyn replied. The cat in question had been wandering about the entrance to the apartment building that Evelyn lived in. She had quickly taken to the pure black cat and had quickly taken her to the vet to make sure she was healthy. The cat had been her companion ever since.

Evelyn smiled in relief when the bus finally stopped before her and the doors opened. "Lady Penelope, my bus just arrived. I should be at the apartment shortly."

"See you soon Evelyn," the blond replied and a dial tone sounded shortly after. Evelyn closed her phone but instead of sticking back into her purse, she put into her front pant pocket. Evelyn stepped onto the bus and smiled at the driver. "Hello Ernie."

"Hello Evelyn," he replied with a think southern accent. He was a thin man about thirty years older than herself with graying blond hair that was beginning to thin in the front. He had gotten used to seeing her climb onto the bus every Tuesday and Thursday. "How were your finals?"

"Horrible," she replied. Ernie waited a few more minutes for a few other students that Evelyn recognized from the English class she had just left. Ernie greeted them the same way as Evelyn sat impatiently near the back of the bus. A young man she recognized to be David Mathews sat down a few seats from her and smiled.

Evelyn was so impatient to get moving that she ignored him intentionally, not really in to mood to talk to him right now. Sure he was kind of cute and seemed nice but all she could think about was getting to her apartment to meet Penelope and Parker.

The ten minute ride felt like forever to Evelyn so when they finally stopped near her apartment building, Evelyn ran off the bus, pushing off the questions about the eye-catching pink car that waited for her at the curb. Parker stood beside the car and tipped his hat to her as she approached. "Miss Tracy."

"Hey Parker," she greeted in return as he opened the door for her. She spotted Lady Penelope sitting inside along with her duffle bag. She smiled at the butler before she climbed in. "Thanks for grabbing my things Parker."

"Happy to help Miss Tracy," he replied as she climbed into FAB 1 and sat down in the seat next to Penelope, who was dressed in her usual pink. Penelope looked up from her palm pilot and smiled at Evelyn. "Hello Evelyn. Good to see you again."

"Good to see you to Lady Penelope," Evelyn replied as Parker climbed into the front seat of the car. "Though I do wish it was under other circumstances."

"As do I," she replied softly as Parker pulled FAB 1 away from the curb and began to drive towards the outskirts of the city so that they could take off for New Hampshire.
