Across the Atlantic, the wind began to gust with relish, and Thunderbird Two, as far as Dominic was concerned, was only kept in their air by the genius of Brains and the excellence of Virgil. The crew had been kept up to date via Alan -- Mental note, Thunderbird Five for today. How'm I gonna remember all these code names? -- and the danger zone was nearing. They were flying above the English Channel; Virgil assured them that London was only minutes away.

"I've never been to London before," he commented. "Never been much of anywhere, really. It's a pity that I'm seein' these places under such bad circumstances."

There was a general murmur of agreement, and beside him, Brandon nodded, his mouth in a firm line. His arms were crossed across his chest, and when Dominic stole a glance, his eyes were hard and steeled.

"Thunderbird One from Thunderbird Two," said Virgil, and all eyes in the cockpit swung towards him. "What's the situation?"

"Thunderbird Two from Thunderbird One, we've found a place near the bridge to set up mobile control; we'll be setting down imminently. What's your ETA?"

"ETA two and one half minutes, Thunderbird One. What's our plan of action?"

"I'm going to have to stabilize the limo with the lances, " Scott said. In the background they heard the telltale roar of TB1's VTOL jets. "After that, we're going to need people up there to get the PM and company out of the limo. There are fires at the base of the bridge, which is going to make things harder, and then we've got the cruise ship to worry about. It appears to be to be taking on water. But not only that, there are reporters on top of the bridge trying to get in on the action." Scott chuckled, but the sound was dry. "This is going to be a tricky one, folks. I'll keep you apprised, Thunderbird Two. Thunderbird One out."

Gordon whistled through his teeth and shook his head; John crossed his arms with wry grin.

"Let's get to it then, guys," said Virgil. "Gordon, Brandon, prep TB4. John and Dom, the same for TB7. Brains, you're with me. We'll be landing any minute now. But remember when we're out there: code names!"

"FAB!" Said Gordon.

The crews piled into the passenger lift down to the pod bay. John gave Dominic a slight pat on the arm and a quick nod. It was time to get down to business.
