Tracy Island, February 26th 2068

Kat excused herself and left Nikki and Lisa still sitting by the pool.

"I think I will try and contact my parents,"

She saw the look that Lisa gave her. "Don't worry, I won't say too much, but they deserve to hear from me."

Lisa nodded. "Yes, of course you must contact your parents."

Kat returned to her apartment. Before contacting her parents, she decided to have a drink and rest for a while.

Going into the kitchen she got some ice out of the ice maker and poured herself a long drink of fresh orange juice, and after adding the ice cubes, she walked to the French windows and went and sat out on the balcony on one of the chairs provided.

For a moment she looked out at the sea shimmering in the distance and at the line of palm trees, which she now knew lined the route for Thunderbird 2 to leave the island.

Suddenly she was lost in thought. She thought of the flight down to the island, meeting Nikki and Christopher. Oh, she smiled to herself, mustn't forget his cat. The warm welcome by Mrs Tracy. Being shown to this apartment. She stretched her legs feeling the luxurious warmth of the sun on her bare arms and legs. Yes, this is a truly wonderful apartment with the best ever view.

She thought about her tour of the island and the shock of being told that it was the headquarters of International Rescue. She was still a bit piqued that she hadn't been told at first. John had been very blunt with her, but later so patient, even though she had given him a hard time. Thinking of John brought a warm feeling. She had begun to like him a lot. She did hope that he would not forget to show her the stars.

Her thoughts strayed onto the rescue. Brains had brought her to the lounge. People she scarcely knew were busy preparing to go on the rescue. She had glimpsed Virgil and Gordon, and two of her new friends, Brandon and Dom had been asked to go on the rescue. They had both looked very nervous.

But now that rescue was over, they had come back, but Mr Tracy was seriously ill in hospital in New York. Kat hoped and prayed that he would recover. She remembered meeting him at Lady Penelope's New Year's Eve party. He was so charming with such a lovely new wife and family. What would happen if...? She shook her head. No, I'm not even going to think about that. He must get better, he has to get better. They all felt so helpless, everyone was going around in a daze. Why was life so unfair, she thought angrily, just when things were going really well and he was increasing International Rescue's personnel? She felt tears pricking her eyes. She rubbed them away angrily. Her thoughts continued to wander.

Brains had been funny, setting her a false problem, but she had told him he was wrong and had apparently passed with flying colours.

Slowly her eyes became heavy and she fell asleep.
