Chapter Four

Disclaimer: I do not own Thunderbirds

A few days later

Alan's POV

"How did you guys forgot to tell Grandma?!" I yelled. Ever since my injury from the rescue in California I knew everyone would be at my beck and call. But how did everyone forget to tell Grandma about the rescue.

"Well in my defense I was making sure you were able to walk on that leg again Alan." Virgil said.

True Virgil is the medic in the family and was the one to patch me up, but that didn't excuse the others.

"Scott, Gordon? Got any excuses for his royal injured highness?" Virgil asked his brothers with a smirk and earning a glare from Alan who was sitting on one of the couches in the living area.

Scott and Gordon were stuttering trying to think of a good enough excuse when then they saw their grandma walk in followed by Lady Penelope and Parker.

"Oh dear." Gordon whispered as they all stared at their grandma in fear.

No one's POV

"What's with all these faces?" Grandma asked suspiciously. And on instinct Scott, Virgil, and Gordon blocked Alan from Grandma's view. "And where's Alan?"

"Grandma, before you freak out…while you were away…" Scott said with nervous grin and chuckle.

"Gordon run to the kitchen and lock up the food." Virgil whispered to Gordon. Gordon instantly ran off to the kitchen. Lady Penelope and Parker were watching Gordon speed off to the kitchen with looks of suspicion on their faces.

"Yes?" Grandma Tracy asked with her fists on her hips wanting her grandson's to get to the point.

"We had a mission…and Alan…" Scott said but was nervous to finish.

"Got hurt!" Virgil blurted out. And immediately covered his mouth with his hands. Everyone turned and looked at him in a sea of annoyance, anger, and worry. Virgil looked over at Gordon who was locking up as much as he could and saw Gordon stop and glare at him. "What the hell bro!" Gordon yelled at Virgil.

Penelope and Parker gasped as Grandma Tracy shoved aside Scott and Virgil and took a look at her youngest Grandson.

"Hi Grandma." Alan waved meekly.

"What on earth happened?!" Grandma Tracy almost screamed.

"Crushed by a rock?" Alan said with a nervous chuckle.

Scott, Virgil, and Gordon where trying to tip toe out of the living room when Grandma Tracy stopped them.

"You three, where do you think you're going?!" Grandma Tracy yelled.

"To go live in space with John." Gordon chuckled nervously.

"Why didn't you three tell me about Alan's injury?" Grandma Tracy asked.

Then John's hologram came on and saw Grandma Tracy yelling at Scott, Virgil, and Gordon.

"Uh oh." John said as he was about to end communication to avoid the fight he was stopped by Grandma Tracy turning around and glaring at him.

"You didn't tell me either John?" Grandma Tracy asked with a glare.

John laughed nervously. "Sorry, my communications were down." John said but his lie was foiled by EOS.

"No they weren't." EOS's voice said in the background. And John sighed in annoyance at his space friend.

"All four of you are grounded." Grandma Tracy said furiously.

"What?!" the four oldest Tracy's said.

"Yes, 1) you didn't tell me about Alan's injury, 2) Gordon you can't stop me from trying to cook a meal by locking up the cupboards and 3) because John lied." Grandma Tracy said with a little bit of an evil grin.

"What about Alan?" Gordon complained.

"Alan is grounded and his punishment is not going on missions for 2 months and eating whatever I cook." Grandma Tracy replied still with somewhat of an evil grin.

"Gordon come here for a second?" Alan asked.

Gordon walked over and fell into Alan's trap. As soon as Gordon got close Alan whacked him in the leg with one of his crutches.

"Ow!" Gordon whined as he backed away and held where he was whacked in the shin. "What was that for?" Gordon asked.

"For not keeping your mouth shut." Alan said along with a glare.

"Oh is it because you have to eat Grandma's cooking?" Gordon asked.

"What do you think water boy?" Alan said sarcastically.

"You four are banned from going on missions for 1 month. John you are coming down from Thunderbird 5." Grandma Tracy continued on with her punishments for her grandsons.

"Grandma, I need to be up here." John said.

"I'm sure EOS can handle communications that are indeed working." Grandma Tracy said with a smug smile.

John sighed in annoyance again. "I'm coming down." John said then ended the communication.

Lady Penelope and Parker chuckled at the family 'fight' then decided to take their leave and head back to London.

"And for tonight, all of you are going to eat dinner that I whip up." Grandma Tracy said then turned to the kitchen to try and take off the locks that Gordon put up.

"Gordon, I'd be careful when you fall asleep." Alan said.

"Somebody better watch out for them." Scott said to Virgil as Virgil nodded in agreement.

"Because I might actually kill you in your sleep before Grandma's cooking does." Alan finished his threat.

"I heard that young man." Grandma said from the kitchen.

"But Virgil was the one who told me to lock the cupboards." Gordon blurted out.

"Gordon I will now kill you in your sleep. Or how about now?" Virgil lunged for his younger brother but Gordon was already off and running away as Virgil chased him. Scott sighed in annoyance and rested his face in his hands. Then looked up at Alan who was having a little bit of a hard time trying to get up from the couch.

"Let me help you Alan." Scott said as he supported Alan as he adjusted himself on his crutches.

"Thanks, I'm gonna to rest in my room until dinner." Alan said then wobbled away on his crutches to his bedroom.

Here is the last chapter to Rocky Road. I tried to make this last chapter funny; I mean it was funny to me. Anyways I have been planning that I will be making a series that continues off from this story. And thanks to all of those who followed and made this story one of your favorites. And hopefully this series will be a good one. Once again thank you.
