Thunderbirds Love Or Coincidence

Chapter 11

Here is the next chapter guys...

I started to get ready for the tournament, I was getting my suit and belt and everything in my kit bag, ready so we could leave first thing in the morning for the competition so that we would be the first ones in the line and we could have a good warm up and run through parts of our routine.

I went and got in the shower and went bed, so that I could get up early and be ready for the competition.

I woke up the next morning, and I went I knocked Virgil up, because I knew that when his alarm went off he wouldn't hear it.

We went and got a good healthy breakfast, and we were joined by the rest of the team.

"Are you ready to go and kick some butt, Sam and Virg," Alan asked. I nodded, "Yeah we sure are, with a brilliant teacher like Sam how could we not," I smiled and the rest of the lads had a chuckle, I had finished my drink, and I decided to go through a couple of moves while I waited for Virgil to get ready to go.

I went and I did a little stretching, I dropped down into my middle split right there and then in the middle of the room where there was space, and I was twisting into my front splits so there was full motion in my hips, and then I decided to do a couple of arials, I did a couple of side arials, those are the kind that I put into the routine, then I did a couple of front arials, even though they were not in the routine.

"Hey Sam, do a standing back tuck," I heard Gordon shout, and so I did with a stick it landing, and then from that I did a back tuck full twist and stuck the landing, and then I was warmed up enough. "Sam what tricks are in your routine?" I smiled, "There are backhandsprings, backtucks, arials and all sorts well get a video of the routine while we are performing it so you can watch it," they all seemed happier, "Hey Sam," I heard and turned around and it was Jeff, "Yes Jeff," he smiled, "Good luck to the both of you, "Thank you," and me Virg said in unison, and then we were off to the competition, Alan flew Thunderbird 1 and dropped us off.

We got there and we were one of the first pairs to get there.

Not going into detail but we got to the final, we were against the reigning freestyle champions but we would give it our best shot.

They went first and their routine was very well executed, I know how to deal with the pressure but I wasn't sure if Virgil could, I went up to him before we were due to go on, "Virg are you alright?" I asked because he was looking a little worried, "Yeah, they were really good," I smiled, "But so are we, and we have been practising for a long time, and if we just imagine that we are in another rehersal then we can have fun doing it," I put my hand on his shoulder to reassure him, and the n we walked onto the mat and we were ready to go.

The routine started and everything was going fine, then it came down to the last tumbling pass, Virgil did his pass from one corner of the mat to the opposite corner, he did a round off two backhandsprings and a side flip, then it was my pass, a round off two backhandsprings and a back tuck full twist, but on the final backhandspring something snapped in my wrist, and to end the routine we both walked into the middle of the maat facing in different directions and put our guard up with a massive shout, then we bowed and walked backwards to the edge f the mat and walked off so that the judges could judge.

I sat next to my bag and began to cry because of the pain in my wrist, and not to bore you anymore but I was taken to the medical bay and they said that I had broken my wrist and they put me a back slab cast on my arm before the ceremony at the end.

It came to the ceremony and me and Virgil stood on one side of the mat and the undefeated team stood on the other and the main judge was in the middle holding a microphone.

"And the winner of the championship title is..." there was a long pause, "Samantha and Virgil," we couldn't believe our ears, then we walked over to the other team, and we shook their hand, and they were decent about then entire thing, they said, "Well done we finally have a little competition in these things, sorry about your arm, we will meet in the ring again," and then me and Virgil received our trophy and we were getting ready to go home, but I went to the hospital and got a proper cast on before going and meeting Alan at thunderbird 1, and when we got back to the island we watched the DVD and I had to point out the point where my wrist snapped and they all heard the snap on the DVD, but it was an awesome day, but the better day would be when Scott came back to me. 

So here is the next chapter guys, i will start to focus more on rescues now and less on action but, i will have to come up with some ideas before i update again...

Hope you enjoy...
