Note from Beta-Reader: All right...as the beta reader of Willow's story I have something to say. I was THREATENED to beta this story! Honestly! A reviewer had threatened to hold Brains for ransom if she doesn't get this story up! And being the nice person that I am, I felt I must do this before she attacks me with a mallet. And that gotta hurt! So...with my brother leaving for his mission in less then 12 hours...and getting set apart in 4 hours...here is chapter 3 of "The day after tomorrow"

Disclaimer: I do NOT own Thunderbirds, nor Day After Tomorrow those responsibilities go to someone far richer then I.

Special Thanks: To all those who reviewed so far.


Chapter 3

"You three stay where I can see you. No R rated books, or magazines got that?" yelled Scott from the door. The two boys, Fermat and Brains smiled at one another as Tin-tin pulled out her cell phone. She dialed for home as she looked at Scott who was in his civilian clothing now. She smiled brightly as Jeff answered.

"Hello TinTin. Flight go okay?" Jeff asked as he typed up a few documents.

"Oh yes Mr. Tracy, it was a real blast," she began sarcastically, "The guys are having burping contests which was stamped out by yours truly." Jeff laughed at her remarks. If Kyrano were to hear that, he would have said that it was unlady like to burp out loud.

Tin-tin smiled, as the sky grew dreary. Rain began to fall and lighting rolled in the distance...at least she thought it was rain. Water began to flood the streets at a fast pace. Tin-tin's smile faded.

"Yes Mr. Tracy...please let me call you back...the water levels are getting high. I really must call Brains." Tin-tin hung up without an acknowledgement and quickly dialed Brains cell phone number.

Brains stood up on the podium. His stutter was back as he lectured about his beliefs of what may be going on. People rolled their eyes at him as a woman took the stand after him.

Council would like to recognize Judy McFly from the National Aeronautics Space, Association." Judy smiled at everyone then began to speak, "Our satellites show that there are three different clusters of hurricanes forming on land. Professor Hackenbacker had managed to get International Rescue to help with the details."

Brains felt his cell phone vibrate. He looked at it as Gil pushed his hand back down gently, "Not in here Hiram."

Brains nodded and put the cell phone back in his pouch.

Tin-tin looked around for Scott as she heard her cell phone jingle. She answered it. Her voice was small as if she was in some tunnel across a yard, "Yes?"

Jeff's voice grew serious, "tin-tin is everything all right?"

Tin-tin looked forward and shook her head as if Jeff could see her then she gasped, "C-calling International Rescue."

"TinTin aren't you going to answer him?" Alan looked in the direction TinTin was staring. He grabbed her arm and ran inside as one huge title wave crashed into the old library. As many people as possible ran up the stairs into the upper decks of the old rooms filled with textbooks, novels, and magazines.

The lights flickered once, then twice, and went out. About twenty people sat bundled in the corners, behind toppled bookshelves and under tables.

Fermat opened his eyes to see Alan's eldest brother looking down at the trio, "You alright?"

The three slowly nodded. Tin-tin clung to Alan as if the wave had hit them personally.

The conference went on for another hour and a half. It ended quickly as a man ran in and handed the vice president a small letter. He read it and looked around the room for a second, "As of 4:15 p.m. a tsunami had hit New York City. It's covered in water."

Brains heart fell into his stomach, as he looked at Gil for some reassurance, "My son?"

Gil looked at Brains and shook his head, "I'm sorry Hiram...that library is in the middle of New York City."

The man handed the Vice a second letter that had just came from the fax, "They've got International Rescue to help."
