Chapter five
Cynthia's point of view.
Where; It's a damn good question!
…and the Thunderbirds flew away, since all the children were saved.
Ooooooh… Man, What time is it? I slept for such a long time, I must have missed the bus again! I dreamed that I climbed in Thunderbird 1. It brought me to the IR base. Then, I made another dream about me being a part of the team and we rescued kids tapped in an avalanche.
But, this is not my blanket, it doesn't feel the same at all! Oohh, now I remember, it was not a dream! Well, the part about me hiding in TB1 was not. Then, at base, I spoke with some man that was their leader. After, that nice lady came to tuck me in bed.
As my vision becomes clearer, I realize that the place I'm in now is not the place I fell asleep in. This place is strange. It has golden statues all over it and it smells like incense. I don't' think I'm still at the base. Where have I ended up now?
I feel something hard and uncomfortable under my leg. Before I have the time to look what it is, I see the face of a guy, he doesn't' seem very sympathetic. He looks Chinese or something. He seems pretty young, in his twenties. He has short black hair and very, very scary, piercing eyes. Enough to make me do nightmares! He's certainly not an International rescue agent. I don't' know where I am, who that guy is, but I know I'm not safe!
I never thought I'd say that in my life but, I wish I was in school right now!
-"I already had a plan to get rid of International Rescue but in case it fails, you'll be an excellent part of a plan B. My father never had a plan B and never got rid of the Tracys either."
In normal time, I know I would understand it all, but I'm so scared, I don't know if I would understand it if he said it in French! I just know that it is something about I.R. and that was not to give them a hand!
-How are you related to the Tracys? Are you a cousin? Did Jeff had a daughter with another woman after his wife's death?
Now what the Hell is he talking about?
-Lâches-moi tranquille! Lâches-moi tranquille! Je comprends rien à tes questions, je sait rien! J'ai peur! ( Leave me alone! Leave me alone! I don't understand an anything about your questions! I don't' know anything! I'm scared!)
He left me alone He seemed very surprised to hear me talk. Was he thinking that I was from International Rescue?
I cry for a while then, I look at what's that hard little object under my leg. It is a watch.

Base, Tin-tin's pov.
Even if Alan, myself, Molly and Gordon went on the mainland last night, doesn't mean we're not looking for that little girl that came here two days ago. We spent the last two days looking around the island. We were sure that she was around, but now, we're seriously thinking about asking some help from the secret services.
It's a stressful morning at Tracy island. We know there's not much we can do to save that poor girl, but we all feel guilty of not finding her.
-"M..mr Tracy, I…I found something that m…might interest you. I made a comparison between our T…thunderbirds and the new Fireflash 2100. I never worked on this plane b… but their hydrogen engine is m…much similar to ours. "
That was Brains. Hey, wait, can it be just a coincidence, or they copied on us?
-"Similar, just how similar?" Asked Mr. Tracy.
-"Ew.. Well way enough to let me think that it's not a coincidence, s…sir."
Jeff makes a move to go talk to Brains about this. Then, the eyes of John ( His portrait, I mean) begin to flash.
-"Go ahead, John!
-I'm receiving a distress signal from somewhere in Malaysia, but it seems to be coming from Tin-tin's communicator."
Of course! I took my watch off my wrist and put it on my bed on the morning before we found the girl. The girl took a blanket with her when she left ( or when she was took). Te watch must still be in the blanket and with the girl. I explained the whole thing to John and mr. Tracy. John lost no time and sent us the signal. It was her.
-Allo! Someone …took me when I …was sleeping!
Oh my gosh! This means she had been kidnapped!
-"Who?…qui?" Asked Alan.
-It's some guy. He looks evil, he scares me!
Then, we hear that cold, angry voice coming from behind;
-"WHAT ARE YOU DOING, YOU…"
and we lost her.
-What are we gonna do about it, Mr. Tracy?
-"We have to go get her," sait Scott "right now!"
- "No!" answered his father. "The guy may be holding a gun at the girl's temple right now as we speak. That is a kidnapping and we cant handle this like any other rescue."
What are we gonna do? I.R. never faced something like this before.

Bad guy's point of view
-It's some guy, looks evil, he scares me!
-"WHAT ARE YOU DOING! YOU…"
I caught the little brat talking to I.R. with one of their communicators. And to make things worse, I learned a few things about her; ses not een related to the Tracys. She's just a nobody that sneaked in one of their planes.
That's it, she gives me no choice! I'll have to start mission Fireflash right now. I'll explain her every little detail to make sure she'll understand every little thing I'll do to her precious International Rescue.
