Main Characters: Alan, John, Scott, TinTin

Summary:

Alan has a younger twin sister who isn't exactly like him. Actually, more like, opposite him. She is smart and listens to her father, but she only hates one person, Alan. He treats her like a kid when they are both the age of fourteen. Will this change when The Hood arrives?

Author's Note:

This is my first Thunderbird FanFiction, so diehard Thunderbird fans, go easy. I also have only watched the 2004 Movie and have watched the magnificent works of Criminally Charmed and Little Miss Bump, also TBMom. So, if character's actions are wrong, I apologize in advance.

The writing style may change. So any first person will be in my OC's First Person, while other tidbits will be in 3rd person. There will be a break and then in Italics 3rd Person, but it will be centered around a character. So it will say, 3rd Person Name, only my OC will be in First Person.

Disclaimer: I do not own the Thunderbirds, I only own my OC, Kathryn Dwyer Tracy. - There are also specific lines from the movie, so I don't own those either.

- Chapter 2 -

On the way to Wharton's, we quickly stopped and got some snacks and drinks, since someone's, ahem Tintin's, stomach was growling, we couldn't think. I got a caesar wrap with a soda and Tintin got the same only instead of a soda, purchased a strawberry shake. We got back to the car Lady Penelope was waiting for us and we entered the car together.

During the trip, Tintin asked, "Want to try my shake, Kat?"

"Sure, I have never had a strawberry shake before, so I'm a little interested." I took the cup from Tintin and slurped the pink shake. It was creaming and tasted like fresh strawberries. I handed it back to her and decided to read a book I acquired from the local bookstore near school.

After a half-an-hour or so, my eyes were drooping. I was suddenly feeling really tired. Tintin looked at me and asked, "Are you alright? You look kind of pale."

"Yeah, I guess I am just tired. I didn't sleep well last night and now I am feeling the effects," I said with a yawn.

Lady Penelope stated, "It won't be awhile till we reach Wharton's, why don't you get some rest dear?"

I nodded slightly and immediately fell asleep.

I awoke slightly when the car came to a stop. For some strange reason my chest was really tight and it was slowly getting harder to breathe. Soon I realized Lady P had left the car and went to get Alan and Fermat. They came to the car shortly and I could hear the door opening. Tintin said,"Hello Alan, Fermat."

Alan replied, "Hey Tintin, hey..," his tone changed as he looked at me. My eyes were only half open and my breathing was semi-ragged. "Are you ok Kat? You look pale."

"I don't know. I just feel tired and weak at the same time. Maybe it was because I didn't get enough sleep last night," I said half awake. I could tell he wasn't convinced completely. This is one thing I don't get about him. At times, Alan will be the biggest jerk and treat me like a kid, but then there are times like this. I am not feeling the greatest and Alan decides to act like the brother he supposed to be.

Alan replied, "Why don't you lay down? Fermat, want to hand me the pillow from back?"

Fermat grabbed the pillow and Alan rested it on his lap. I moved from the side in the back to the middle and put my head on him. Lady Penelope sat in the middle with Tintin in the separated seats and Fermat was with Parker in the front. It was rare for Lady Penelope to not sit in the back, so I thanked her.

Slowly, my eyes were closing and I could feel the exhaustion taking hold of me.

(3rd Person - Tintin/Alan)

Tintin noticed Kathryn had fallen asleep and hoped that she would stay like that until they got to Tracy Island. "Well this is an interesting way to start off her spring break," Tintin thought with a grimace. She spoke aloud, "I wonder what could have caused this? She was perfectly fine when we left Clayworth."

Lady Penelope answered, "She did appear fine when we left, but when we took that quick stop for something to drink and eat, is when she changed. Was there anything she is allergic to in her food?"

"Kathryn is only allergic to penicillin and walnuts and there weren't any nuts in the food. She had quick sip of my strawberry shake, but that was it." Tintin thought on the subject and realized what had happened during the year, "Although, at our school, we had a major allergy alert and everyone had to have allergy tests taken. The school nurse had given me a note to give to Virgil and I think it might have to deal with the testing." The malaysian girl rummaged through her bag and grabbed the letter. "Should I open it, or wait till we get to island?"

Alan, only listening to half the conversation, looked worriedly at his twin. He hoped it wouldn't be an allergy. He had always hated when she was sick or had an attack because of her disease. She looked weak and Alan, even though would never admit it, admired his twin. Kathryn was sure smarter than him and could fight against any illness. Alan would get angry at her because he didn't want her to become a Thunderbird, because he felt it would make her disease worse. So, his overprotectiveness and Tracy stubbornness turned into anger.

He looked down at his sleeping twin and noticed something he didn't before, her breathing was becoming more and more ragged. Alan asked, "Are you sure she didn't do anything rash or was spooked?"

"Why?" Tintin asked.

"Her breathing is ragged and she is showing signs of an attack, rather than an allergic reaction. Why don't you read that note and it might explain something."

Tintin opened the envelop in her hands and read it quickly. Her eyes widened at what she was reading. When she spoke, her voice quavered, "It says that after the allergy testing, Kathryn has a mild reaction to strawberries. It also says, that if she eats them, it could set off an attack instead of an allergic reaction." She looked at Kathryn in Alan's lap and then at Alan, "I am so sorry Alan. I was the person who let her have a sip of my strawberry shake... It's all my fault.

"It's alright, you couldn't have known," Alan replied calmly. He spoke to Parker, "What is our ETA?"

"We should be arriving soon," Parker replied with his thick British accent.

Alan spoke quickly, "Ok, we need to contact my father or Virgil because when we land she needs help right away. Lady Penelope, do you know if they finished the mission or not?"

"Well..," Lady P was cut off by Parker.

"Pardon me, milady. Approaching Tracy Island. And radar indicates we have some company."

Alan looked out the window and Thunderbird 2 was on his left and Thunderbird 1 was on his right. Quickly he told Lady Penelope, "Try to make contact with Thunderbird 1, it might be easier."

Penny tried said action and was able to get through to Scott, "Scott, please tell your father and Virgil, when we land, we need them immediately. Kathryn is having a mild attack and it is quickly turning into a serious attack. We are landing shortly." There was some muffled speaking from the communicator and then Lady P answered, "Of course and yes Alan is with her. See you shortly." Penny now spoke to us, "Scott will inform Virgil and Jeff. Alan, how is her breathing?"

Alan looked down at his twin and answered, "It's getting worse and I can feel heat off her body, too much heat." He was about to say something again but Kathryn woke up.

(1st Person)

I could hear the others talking around me as I slowly woke up. My body woke up, but my eyes stayed closed. My chest was heavy and my breathing was ragged. It was also really hot. It almost felt like I was having an attack, butI couldn't recall what had started the attack. Nothing had startled me and I sure didn't over-exert myself. So what the hell happened?

I opened my eyes and realized, by the scenery outside the car, we were home. Well we were in the air above the island. I also realized I still had my head resting on Alan's legs, on the pillow. Slowly, I was able to make out what Alan was saying, ".. too much heat."

"You can say that again," I interrupted in a weak voice. I looked up at Alan and smiled slightly.

He smiled in return and spoke, "Hey, how are you feeling?"

"My chest is tight, it's hard to breathe, and it's really hot. Other than that, no," I replied with a smirk. I felt the car touch the ground and soon the windows were covered by the hanger built for FAB1 and our personal Tracy airplanes.

My eyes were feeling heavy again, but Alan prompted me, "Hey, not now. Wait until Virgil gets here, then you can rest."

Tintin, Fermat, Lady P, and Parker exited the car and I tried to get up, but immediately fell back against Alan, who had caught me. Now I was resting against his chest. A stabbing pain in my chest was now present in my chest. I huffed, "Ok... make that... pain in chest... too.." My breathing was more ragged and I could feel myself hyperventilating.

"Kathryn, Kat, it's going to be alright. Please just calm your breathing, you can do it. I know you can," Alan spoke softly to me. I tried, but sure was it hard.

There was a commotion outside and I could see four figures running towards the car. When they came closer, I could recognize my older brothers Scott, Virgil, Gordon, and my father. I smiled, but I gasped out in pain from my chest.

My hyperventilating was coming back and suddenly Virgil was by my side speaking in a calm voice, "Hey Kat, I'm going to help you out, but try to stay still." He spoke to Alan, "I need you to keep her still, when her medicine kicks in, she has no control of her body. Scott come here. Once I inject the medicine into her system, help Alan keep her body in control and then I want you to move her to the infirmary." He looked back to Dad and Gordon, "Gordon go grab the oxygen mask from the closest location and quickly get back here. Kathryn will need it when her medicine kicks in."

Scott nodded and Gordon ran and headed out to get the oxygen. Virgil started grabbing things from his bag, while moving at fast-rate. Virgil then pulled out the medicine created for my disease's attacks. Next came the syringe. I hate those things. I tried to back away or get up but Alan held me firmly, yet not too tight, "It's alright Kat, just relax. I know you hate needles, but just relax."

My fear of needles was too overwhelming and I tried to move again. This ended up in an immense pain radiating from my chest. I gasped out in pain and slowing my vision was showing black spots. I didn't see Gordon race back to where we were, neither did I register when Virgil was coming closer with the needle. I felt the prick and cringed in an automatic response. This time new hands were helping hold me down. Through my now heavy eyes, I could see my oldest brother, Scott, connected to those hands. My body started to tremble and shiver. Alan and Scott tried their best to hold me still and Virgil placed the oxygen mask over my face. I breathed in the fresh oxygen and slowly my body stopped moving convulsing. I now laid heavily on Alan, barely able to hold up my body.

I could slightly hear Alan and Scott speaking to each other. Scott said, "I am going to carry her while I need you to hold the oxygen supply close." I saw Alan slightly nod and then my oldest brother bent down towards me. "Hey there Kat," you could see my smile through the mask, "I need to bring you to the infirmary, I just want you to keep breathing and stay awake."

I nodded slightly and he took me from Alan's lap. An enormous amount of pain traveled throughout my chest and I gasped in pain. I could slightly hear Scott telling me it was going to be alright and that we were almost there.

We entered the infirmary and Scott gentle placed me on the bed. He moved over to the side so Virgil could get in and attach the IV. I could see the needle in his hand and reacted in response. I didn't know how it was possible, but it happened. Scott gently held my body down with the help of Alan. I felt the prick on my skin as Virgil attached the IV. I relaxed under Scott's protective arms and could feel the exhaustion taking over.

Virgil spoke to me, "Now you can rest Kat and when you wake up we will see how you are doing."

I smiled through the oxygen mask toward my family and slowly let my eyes fall. I never thought my Spring Break would start like this and at that time I didn't know what was coming, just something bad.

(3rd Person - general)

Now that the youngest Tracy was finally resting peacefully, the rest of the family and friends were able to relax. Jeff moved beside his only daughter's bed and held her hand. Still looking at Kathryn spoke to his family, "I think Alan, Fermat and Tintin should go get some rest, or at least relax. I know Onaha had planed to make a nice dinner for the kids first day of Spring Break, but we all need to get some rest."

Onaha spoke to Jeff, "I don't mind making it tomorrow, everyone should be there, so it can wait.

Everyone agreed and only Fermat, Tintin, Lady P, Parker, Brains, Kyrano, and Onaha left the room. Scott noticed that Alan was still in the room, still staring at Kathryn. He put a hand on his younger brother's shoulder, "She's going to be alright, go get some rest Sprout." Alan looked tiredly at his brother, back to Kathryn, and then nodded. He left the room.

When Alan exited, Virgil moved toward Kathryn again. Checking her vitals and noticed her fever was still pretty high. He grabbed a fever reducer and injected it into her IV.

Scott, still surprised at Alan, spoke to his family, "Did anyone else notice how protective Alan was of Kathryn? Usually those two are always fighting and Alan acts childish."

Gordon answered, "Yeah, he seemed like another version of you!"

Scott, tempted to hit the copper head across the head, stopped himself and continued, "I meant he didn't fight with her."

"Maybe Alan is finally seeing that he is an older brother and a twin. Twins have more connection then siblings," Virgil added.

Jeff cut in, his eyes still not looking away from Kathryn, "It might be that, or because he was with her when her attack was in the weaker stages. We've all had to help her and those stages are the worse. She is tired, not herself, and just looks weak. It's hard to regard." Finally taking his eyes away from the sleeping platinum blonde, spoke directly to his boys, "I now want all of you to shower and get some rest yourselves. Kathryn won't want us to look like the living dead when she wakes up. I will sta..."

Jeff was cut off by Virgil, "Oh no, just like us, you are going to get some rest too and since my room is the closed, I can easily monitor her. So please get some rest Dad."

Jeff laughed and agreed with gruff. He along with Scott and Gordon left the infirmary, while Virgil made one quick scan of his sister. Pleased with her breathing levels and temperature, went and took his shower.

The rest of Tracy Island all got some rest, unknowing of the dangers ahead of them.

Second chapter for you all, I hope you like it and think it's different than others.
