I don't own Thunderbirds. please review.
Alan smile as he pointed his camera on one of the flowers that were on the Island two weeks later. His brothers and father where on rescue leaving Alan to his own devices. He had finish the school work that was given and was waiting on the results to come back. He heard the sound of Thunderbirds One and Two flying away. He looked to the villa then looked at the flower he was taking photos of. He decided not to go to the villa. Photography was the only thing that was keeping him calm.
Alan was on his laptop flipping through the photos when he heard a knock on the door.
"Come in" he called out not taking his eyes off the screen.
"Alan you ok? Brains said you didn't come to the control command" Jeff asked.
"I wasn't interest today" Alan said flipping through to another photo.
"You'll feeling ok?"
"I'm fine."
"Is there something you want to talk about?"
Alan move his hands away from the keyboard. "I know my answer now"
"To what baby boy?"
"Why I don't feel safe on this Island."
Jeff sat down on his office chair. His older Sons where waiting for their father. it had been a few minutes before he could speak.
"Boys." Jeff stop he didn't know how to begin
"Father is this about Alan" Scott asked.
"When I got back I talk to Brains who mention that Alan wasn't sitting in control command during the rescue."
The four older Tracy sons sat up. This in formation alarm them. They couldn't remember the last time that Alan was home and not listening to the rescue (well apart the times he was in the infirmary).
"Where is Alan now?" Scott asked getting up.
"Scott sit…there's more" Jeff said.
Scott slowly sat down and felt Virgil and John's hands on his arms.
"Alan doesn't feel safe on the Island because of what happen with the Hood…I've been wondering maybe for the mean time get him home school or doing distance Edcation…you four have spent time healing on the Island…while Alan only got a month."
"Only because he wanted to go back" Gordon said.
"Does that mean we let him run from his fear?" John asked.
"That's I want him to stay so we can help him" Jeff said.
"How are you going to convince him to stay if he doesn't want to?" Gordon asked "after all it will be him who will be affected."
The three older bothers looked at the red-head looking surprise. The red-head looked up them with a what-did-I-say-face.
"Gordon's got a point" John said "have you asked Alan about it?"
"I'm not interested…I'm not going to do it" Alan said picking up his books from the desk.
"But Allie…we want to help" Scott said.
"If you want to help me than you'll be dropping me off at school" Alan said.
"So you don't want to stay on the Island with us?" John asked.
Alan place his books in a bag before closing it. He still felt tried and arguing with his brothers wasn't on his agenda. John was leaning against the wall. Scott sitting on the desk chair while Virgil and Gordon was sitting on the bed. Their father was standing in the door way. Alan had his back turn to them.
"It's not that I don't want to stay with you. It's just I want to complete school and I can't do it here. I mean I can't hang around people my own age nor do track."
"It's not for the whole year" Virgil said.
"I…I..I can't do it." Alan whisper shaking his head and body was shaking.
"Allie?" Scott said getting concern
"I can't stay here…please don't make me. I don't want any more night mares." Alan voice with line with fear and fell to his knees. He felt four pair of arms surround him.
"I don't want these nightmares" Alan whisper.
"We're going to help you but you need to stay here….oh Allie why didn't you say anything?" Virgil whisper.
"I was afraid" Alan whisper.
"Of what…Allie look at me…what are you scare of?" Scott asked making the youngest Tracy look at him.
"That you all think I'm weak."
"Because of your fear?"
Alan nodded.
"Allie having fears means you're human. All of us have fears including Dad" John said.
"All of you?"
"Do you know what our greatest fear is Allie?" Jeff asked.
