Chapter 3: Who are You?

This was the second hardest thing Alan had to do in his life. He loved Tin-Tin, his 5 daughters, and his son. He was forced to say goodbye to his father and brothers 30 years ago and now this.

Alan was already in bed when Tin-Tin came in their bedroom. He wasn't going to tell her nothing about his plan. "So how Jeff?" he asked as she turned off the lights in the room. "Finally got him to sleep" she crawled into bed next to Alan. "I'm tried that earthquake in Istanbul was tough work" she said as she lay down and toss to her side facing her husband soon they fall fast asleep in each others arms. Tin-Tin sleep peacefully not knowing what her husband planing to do.

Early the next morning, Alan's alarm went off and he slowly got out of bed. He slowly went to his bathroom notices his mustache in the mirror and notices the gray hairs appearing. Alan shakes his head and went to get dressed. He came down and grabbed breastfast. He took a good last look at his home knowing that he won't be back and went down to Fermat's Lab. Fermat looked like he fell asleep in his lab again as Alan came in. Fermat noticed and went and grabbed the watch. Alan went and put his IR uniform on and then put the watch on his right waist. Alan looked at Fermat and sighed

"Just think that tonight we're be having dinner with your father and brothers" said Fermat

Alan gives his best friend a huge hug and pushed a button on the watch then he disappeared.

Alan arrived on Tracy Island 10 minutes before his younger self was able to get out of the freezer. He pushed a different button and words appeared on the screen. Words telling him want to do when he gets there. Alan heard his younger self-coming to the command center of IR. He quietly hind himself behind a door while his younger self faces a horrible truth. "They must of put some short of password because I can't interact with Thunderbird 5" said Brains

"What are you telling me Brains?" said Alan getting scared

"He's telling you that he can't get though to help dad and your brothers," said Older Alan as he came out of hiding

When everybody saw the man their mouths dropped.

"I know how to get passed the code that the Hood insert to save dad and the rest from certain death"

"Who are you and how do you know about this?" questioned the younger Alan

"I tell you anything you want to know after we save them"

Older Alan went to the computer and started typing and then a few minutes later, older Alan stopped and said

"I did my part and now somebody up there has to tell me if it works"

The younger Alan faced the screen and yelled "Come in Dad can you read me?"

No response, he tried a few more times until Jeff Tracy voice was heard

"I hear you Alan"

Tears coming down on both Alans when they heard Jeff's voice.

"Is the command center interacting with Thunderbird 5?" questioned Brains

"We'll back online," said John

Young Alan looked at Older Alan and went and give him a huge hug. "Thanks for saving my family" Older Alan just nodded.

Jeff face appeared on the screen and notice older Alan. To him he looks very familiar but couldn't put a finger on it.

"Can't explain right now, we must stop the Hood before he ruins the Thunderbirds," said Older Alan

"Agreed" said Younger Alan and Jeff together

After his father agreeing to let younger Alan fly Thunderbird 1 to England to stop the Hood. Younger Alan, Fermat, and Tin-Tin went to Thunderbird 1 and off they went to stop the Hood. Older Alan stayed helping Brains commanding over the computers.

About an hour later, Both Thunderbirds 1, 2 and 3 came back. Older Alan was outside stirring at the sunset when the rest of the Tracy family came outside.

Jeff walked towards older Alan.

Older Alan and Jeff looked at each other face to Face

"Thank you for help saving mine and my sons life"

Older Alan just smiled

Jeff looked at Older Alan puzzled then Older Alan

Looked at his father

"I had to save you because I am Alan" he said

Jeff and the rest of the family mouth dropped notices the difference between both him and younger Alan.
