'The Long Reach' (Part Two) by Rob Hoegee |
Deep in the Oort Cloud, Scott has found his long-long father, Jeff Tracy; together they jet-pack back to Thunderbird 2, where Alan, Gordon, Virgil and John are happily reunited with their dad. Alerted to a collision from the asteroid debris surrounding them, the Tracys set off in Thunderbirds 1, 2 and 3 to rendezvous with the Zero-XL; they are unaware that aboard the Zero-XL Brains has come face-to-face with Hood, who wants to steal the T-Drive and leave International Rescue stranded in space forever. Back on Earth, the Chaos Crew break into Tracy Island and deploy a virus into its computer system, setting Brains’ machines and defences against Grandma and Kayo, while they kidnap the Mechanic. But the Mechanic fights back with his own tools and machines, and with some help from Lady Penelope, Parker and Sherbet, Havoc and Fuse are kept at bay until Kayo shuts down the power relay. Before the Chaos Crew can escape, they are stopped by the timely arrival of Colonel Casey and the GDF and the villains are finally arrested. Out in space, Thunderbirds 1, 2 and 3 manoeuvre for reassembly with the Zero-XL, but their attempt at docking fails. To the Tracy boys’ surprise the T-Drive starts to power up – if it leaves them behind, they will never get back to Earth…
