Trial by fire and water (TEU)

Next in my new series of pics Thunderbirds extended universe (TEU). Depicting scenes and scenarios not featured in the Thunderbirds TV series, I'm also be accepting suggestions for scenarios fans would have liked to have seen the thunderbirds in. This piece was a suggestion from fellow diviant artist Riderboy1, thanks mate this one's for you.

Disaster strikes at one of the world navy Atlantica Launch platforms, a computer malfunction has caused a Rocket to lauch while still in it's hanger. With the entire hanger engulfed in flames. The electrical system has been shorted out by the inferno. All emergency exits have been jammed and there's now the danger that the fire could spread to the rocket's refueling tanks. All ships are driven from the area and the world navy have put a cordon round the area. Luckily it isn't long before Thunderbirds one and two arrive on the scene. Scott surveys the situation from TB1 but can't take on the fire with it's missiles until the men can be taken clear of the danger zone. Virgil takes thunderbird 2 in lowering a rescue cage from the pod with John  and Gordon inside. It's down to John to cut through the emergency doors and get the personel out before there is a tremendous explosion.
