Chapter 14: Billie's POV:

"Since when did little Billie turn from a prank loving maniac to a little lady?" John said as he playfully put his hand to my forehead to check for a fever. I pushed his hand away and hugged him again. The atmosphere was quiet, until it was interrupted by the alarms going off in the house indicating a rescue needing to take place, Alice ran in as if she had hours of sleep - wow that was fast. Alan appeared in the hologram and described to us the situation, it wasn't a pretty one.

"The coast along the British Channel has experienced seismic activity, collapsed and is creating a landslide closing in towards Portsmouth, the city has been hit with massive winds and the damage and destruction is increasing by the minute,so this will be a big one." My little brother has grown up so much, he's so mature, but still knows how to have fun; he floats in space, wearing is flight suit, red and white, with his hair ruffled all over.

"We'll need everyone on this one- Alan can you handle it?" Scott asked, worried for his little baby brother. John, Virgil, Alice, Gordon and I left to change while Scott stood there in the lounge, thinking of possible solutions for the scenario- this was major.

Hours Later

Jeez, this was a big one- all you could see was debris and rubble all over the place. I still think back to the past couple of days- Alice not getting sleep in 2 days? I really have pushed the limit- I owe it to her, she's always looked out for me and grew me up as well as helping me in situations. I'm snapped out of my trance when my twin places his fingers in front of my face and snapping them. "Wha- What?" I say quickly, Gordon looking at me with a worrying face.

Whenever one of us was upset or unlike ourselves, the boys would all make this face, which annoyed me and Alice and made us say nothing. Us girls however, stand there crossing our arms with deadly looks and boys spill everything without a second command, just like that.

We somehow arrived at Portsmouth in less than 2 hours in Thunderbird 2, obviously TB 1 getting there first, Alice and John were with Scott responding to anything, leaving Virgil, Gordon and I to come later and do heavy lifting. I saw Alice and John in the town stabilising stuff and rescuing those in hard to reach areas, Gordon and myself evacuating those in houses about to go over the cliff and into the sinkhole and coast. Thunderbirds, 1 and 2 lifted a whole building or two of its position and place it somewhere- releasing a flood of people, water, debris and screams for help- obviously my twin, Alice, myself and John standing by - for the more delicate stuff.

After hours and hours of evacuating, stabilising, providing first aid and other stuff, the sweat, dirt and blood was visible on our suits. We were just about to head back in the Thunderbirds, when my head twitched and so did Alice's at the sound of a man and a young girl screaming for help- we never leave anybody behind. I looked to Alice and I knew she had the same idea as me, John and Gordon decided to ride back in TB1 together with Scott, leaving us with Virgil. We were going up on the lift, we weren't far from the ground, about 2 meters or so, we both jumped, all of our brothers screaming into our ear pieces- John and Gordon the most angry.

"What are you doing?!"John and Gordon yelled in unison, they cared for us girls, nothing and no one was going to make us cry with them around. We started running towards the screaming man and girl, near the edge of the cliff- that's not good. "Where are you going?" The pair once again screaming into our ear pieces.

"A man and a small girl, I'm guessing his daughter, is stuck on the cliff, TB 2 grab Gordon and John and meet us down there, TB 1, do a fly by." I yelled, running and jumping over bits of debris, so was Alice, our uniforms getting dirtier and sweatier as we ran closer. Our uniforms are short sleeved with fingerless gloves, easy for us to grab things and to keep us from turning into a furnace. We got to the cliff, I could see the man and his daughter, he looks so vaguely familiar- I'll remember it later. I heard the engines of Thunderbird 2, hovering above us, sending down the lift with Gordon and John on it, holding out their hands and arms to collect us.

The man handed his girl up to us then to the two brothers standing before us. The coastline started to fall down a nd shift and we started reaching our hands out to the man. His face was masked, his hoodie covering his face, he didn't want to move- he was basically being a stubborn ass. We yelled at him to move, but he wouldn't budge. The cliff started to shake, making Thunderbird 2 go a bit higher, making the reach between our brothers and ourselves nearly impossible.

"Come on! Jump!" The two yelled as they held the railings really tightly, extending their hands to us. We had no choice, the man had disappeared, possibly fell with the rubble, and so we jumped as high as we could. Our hands were so close to each other, but we felt a heavy weight on our hips, it was the guy, he pulled us down. My fingers brushed Gordons as I saw his expression and John's, they were scared and so was Alice and myself. We fell down fast, towards the rocky beaches of the coast, the man holding onto us tightly. "BILLIE! ALICE! NO!" I heard our 5 brothers yell our names, we were going to die. We passed through a thick cloud of fog, we couldn't see the two machines or our 4 brothers anymore.

"What are you doing?!" The two of us yelled, Alice placing back his hood, we faced hi- What?! I can't believe he's here. I thought he was gone away for good! "You...What are you doing?" He smiled to both of us before we landed in a plane, we hit the ground pretty badly, we both winced in pain , rubbing shoulders and arms. I heard yelling, I could see two figures diving down with cables towards us before loosing them in the fog and heard Thunderbirds 1 + 2; Help us, guys. I turned to Alice, but I couldn't see much because my eyes were closing...really...fast...

"Alice! Billie! Do you read us?! GIRLS! Are you okay?! Don't leave us! Are you responsive?!"
