Kayo watched Thunderbird 1 speed ahead and checked her scanner to see where Thunderbird 2 was, she decided to check in on the eldest.

"Hey, Scott, what made you fly off the handle just then?"

"You caught that huh?"

"He's just a kid Scott."

"Who works for that moron under the name of Francois Lemaire," Scott sighed as he gazed at Kayo's hologram, "sorry, but everything that man has done has led us into trouble, and that kid was the worst."

"Well, you'll be pleased to know he's on board Thunderbird 2."

Scott almost brought Thunderbird 1 to a complete stop in flight, "what?"

"Virgil is taking him back to Francois' yacht for that celebratory party," Kayo grinned, "now, are you in or out?"

"Of what?"

"Joining them?"

Scott groaned, "I'd rather go home."

"You care to not save your brother?"

"Don't send me on a guilt trip sweetheart."

Kayo plotted a new course and pulled Shadow around, "then I'll see you on that boat," she signed off with a kiss.

"God help me," Scott followed and went to full thrust.

Every minute on Thunderbird 2 was agony for Virgil as he set a course for Lemaire's yacht, he sighed again as Brandon turned the camera on himself to inform his bloggers of his whereabouts.

"Brandon here, on Thunderbird 2 with the infamous Virgil Tracy, going to celebrate my new job. It's going to be awesome."

"Brandon, do you have to film everything?"

"Dude, I have like 2 million followers wanting to know everything I'm up to."

"Yeah, I'm sure they do," Virgil answered sarcastically, "we're nearly there, thank heavens."

"The boss is going to be so pleased with me."

"You did lose his balloon."

"But I drove an awesome ball, down a hill."

"I think you'll find my brother did most of the work, saved you and risked his life all day, to save your sorry ass."

"Woah dude, ease up."

"He's my brother, dude, and I will risk everything for him," Virgil frowned angrily at the teenager, "so sit quiet. The sooner I get you off my ship, the better I'll feel."

Brandon gulped slightly and shrank into his chair, "ok."

Virgil smirked to himself and pushed his Bird to her maximum speed, "good."

Thunderbird 1 overtook her sister ship and closed in, Scott looked across to his brother with a smile but was met with a glare.

"Alright Virgil, I'm sorry."

"You will be."

Shadow flanked them and Kayo sighed, "boys boys, he's only a teenager."

Virgil glared at Brandon, "yes only, the worst age."

Brandon looked down into his lap and stopped filming, "I'm sorry I've caused all this."

"There's the ship," Virgil circled the yacht and watched the other Birds land.

"Virgil, how are you planning to land here?" Scott asked, "you still need to drop the kid off."

Virgil frowned, "working on that," he hovered above the water inches away from the waves, "Brains, I really hope you tried this out," he took a deep breath and pressed a button on the console, he felt the craft shudder and from the Pod, four large floats inflated on the water carrying the weight of both TB2 and the attached Pod without any water flooding the ship, "there, easy as."

"How do we get on board dude?"

"Watch, and don't film," Virgil activated a ladder from the ship to Lemaire's yacht, "we simply walk across."

On the deck, Kayo and Scott were waiting for Brandon to come aboard, the eldest was pacing slightly with impatience.

"We don't need to be here Kayo, it's only a drop him off, then we can go home."

"We will love, just stop pacing."

Virgil came on board with a frightened looking Brandon, "Mr Lemaire, your new apprentice."

Madeline smiled, "speaking for my husband, thank you for bringing him. We'll have a word with him about his actions, and his new job."

"Please don't let him near our operations again, that balloon was a disaster from the start," Scott sighed, "and Brandon, if you are going to be flying, don't chat with your friends at the same time."

"I'm sorry Scotty."

Kayo felt Scott tense up beside her at the nickname, "just a lesson Brandon."

"So, are we having a party or what?" Brandon grinned, "someone, get the fizz!"

"We should be getting back to our base actually," Scott yawned and turned away.

"But dude come on, one drink?"

"I don't drink and fly sport."

"It's not alcoholic, please Scotty, it's the least I can do for causing your trouble."

Scott gritted his teeth, "still causing me trou..."

"Alright one drink," Virgil spoke over Scott's rambling, "then we have to go."

Scott leant against the railings of the boat watching Brandon talking to Kayo, Virgil walked over, "don't even start Virgil."

"I wasn't even going to open my mouth. He's just a kid Scott, we've all been his age."

"Not for a while though, and you guys were nowhere near as bad."

"Not even Gordon?"

Scott shrugged, "alright one exception, but he hasn't changed since. I wonder how dad put up with us that age?"

"You don't remember? All the shouting and being told off for doing something stupid. You weren't a perfect kid Scott, and that's probably why Brandon idolises you, you're still an adrenaline lover."

"But?"

"Face it, you are. You should probably make amends before we go home, which is about now."

Scott sighed, "I guess so."

"See you in the skies," Virgil walked over to Brandon and shook his hand before going back to Thunderbird 2 to free himself from the floats.

"Umm Brandon?" Scott tapped the kid on the shoulder.

"Are you going, Scotty? Aww man, I was hoping you could stay longer, your sister is really cool by the way."

"Sorry kid, we've got other jobs to do. I just wanted to give you some advice. Test your machines before using them for luxury, it might keep you out of trouble."

"Oh, I will dude, no more risks, I've learnt my lesson. Extreme dude, no more of that."

"Ok good. See you around Brandon," Scott smiled before walking back to Thunderbird 1 with Kayo.

"That was nice of you Scott."

"It's the least I could do, there's no point leaving feeling sour. Race you home?"

"You're on," Kayo smiled and leapt into Shadow immediately taking off.

Scott followed in Thunderbird 1, "you're such a cheater."

"That's why you fell in love with me, for my tricks."

Scott smirked, "true. Thanks, Kayo."

"For what?"

"Everything you are to me."

Kayo sighed to herself, "you're my everything too."

Thunderbird 1 held back to wait for Shadow to catch up, and the two birds flew close together their wings almost touching.
