Hi everyone I just wanted to say thank you for your reviews I appreciate it. Here is chapter 3.

Chapter 3

Lady Penelope turn's to the lady then back to Emma and asks.

"Emma dear, how did you escape the plane wreckage?"

"After the plane crashed I undone my seat belt and crawled out then ran to the trees" was Emma's reply.

Lady Penelope turn's back to the lady and said.

"Hello may I help you?"

"Hello my name is Mrs Archer, I'm a social worker and I'm to help Emma to find a family who will adopt her" Mrs Archer explains.

Emma climb of the bed and hid behind Lady Penelope.

It was midnight on Tracy Island and everyone was in bed except for Claire. she was standing on the balcony to hers and Virgil's room, she couldn't sleep because she was thinking about Emma. she was so lost in her thoughts that she did hear or notice Virgil had got up. He walks over to Claire and gently puts his arms around her from behind making her jump.

"Claire what's wrong?" Virgil asks.

"I can't stop thinking about Emma"

"What about Emma?"

"I wander if she'll find a family who will adopt her"

Claire's thoughts.

I wish Virgil and me could adopt her... but I'm not sure if Virgil would want to adopt Emma.

Virgil's thoughts.

Hmmmm, maybe we could adopt Emma. but first a trail run to see if we can become a family... I think Claire would go for that.

After Virgil thinks to himself for a minute before say anything, he turn's Claire around so that they are facing each other the he asks.

"I've been thinking why don't we do a trail run and how things go, if they go well then we can adopt Emma?"

Claire looks at Virgil with a shocked look before she answers him.

"I think that's a great idea Virgil"

Virgil smiles gently then lean's down and kisses claire.

Back at the hospital in Emma's room Lady Penelope got Emma's to come out from her hiding place.

"I want Claire" Emma said with tear in her eyes.

Mrs Archer looks at Lady Penelope with a questionable look to ask who is Claire.

"Claire is the one who found Emma and stayed with her till Emma was drop off here, Emma has bonded with Claire" Lady Penelope answers.

"I understand" Mrs Archer replies not knowing what else to say.

"I can talk to Claire and her husband and see what they think"

"Ok but maybe i should talk to Claire and her husband"

"It's ok I'll talk to them" Lady Penelope insisted.

Mrs Archer nods gently.

Back on Tracy Island it was breakfast time. Virgil and Claire came into the kitchen and down.

"Good morning Scott, Grandma" both Claire and Virgil say at the same time.

"Good morning" Scott and Grandma answer at the same time.

Virgil and Claire were talking quitely withe each other, Scott noticed and a vaine was popping out of his head which he gets whe he's annoyed.

"Ok you two spill, what are you talking about" Scott ask.

"Let me guess...your pregnant?" Grandma say.

"No I'm not pregnant, Virgil and I were talking about Emma" Claire answers.

"And what about Emma?" was Scott's reply.

"We are thinking about adopting Emma but first we'll have a trail run to see how things go" Virgil answered.

"Are you both sure?" Scott questions.

"Yes we're sure" both Claire and Virgil answer.

Scott smiles and nods gently then replies.

"We're happy for you and I'll talk to our lawyer and ask him to get the paperwork for you both to sign"

"Thank you Scott" Claire say with tears in her eyes.

"Your welcome Claire, and you family.

Claire gets up and to Scott and hugs him, scott hugs her back.

"I'm so lucky to have a wonderful husband, four brother-in laws and a Grandma" Said Claire.

Everyone stopped what they were doing as they could hear what sounded like a heard of elephants running up and down in the living room/situation room.

"GET BACK HERE ALAN" Gordon shouts.

"No way" was Alan's reply while laughing.

"I'll get you back for this" came Gordon's reply.

Gordon walks into the kitchen, Scott, Virgil and Claire could help but laugh. They were all victims to Gordon and Alan's pranks.

"What... did... you...do to... your... hair" Claire asks while she was in a fit of giggles.

Gordon's hair was the colour of pink and everyone was laughing.

"It's not funny, Alan put pink hair dye in my shampoo bottle, I hope this comes out" Gordon answers.

"Yes is, how many times have we beens victims to you pranks?" Scott said while laughing.

"Come with me Gordon i have some hair dye remover" Claire says as she gets up.

Gordon follows Claire, she goes into hers and Virgil's bathroom the a few minutes later she returns to Gordon and hands him a the bottle of hair dye remover.

"You need to do two washes then your hair will return back to it colour" Claire instructs.

"Thank you Claire" Gordon answers.

Gordon goes to his own bathroom to wash his while thinking of way to get his own back on Alan.

I don't own Thunderbirds or the charactes. I hoped you liked this chapter.

Alan will have to watch out, theres no knowing when Gordon will get his own back. I will update soon, thank you everyone.
