A SYMPHONY IN BLUE
A “Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons” story

SYNOPSIS:
For a little while now,
Captain Blue and Symphony Angel have talked about marriage. In vacations together in the Nevada, they
have decided to make it happens, without Colonel White’s knowledge of it. But as they stop in a town in the desert,
before arrival in Las Vegas, Blue encounters a man from his past, who brings
back painful memories to him. After an
altercation with the man, Blue is arrested, and then disappears suddenly, and
Symphony could only count on the help of Captain Scarlet and Destiny Angel to
help her find him. Meanwhile, Colonel
White, suspecting something is afoot behind his back, goes to Vegas with the
intention to stop the twosome from doing a mistake that would endanger their
careers.

Multi-parts story. NOW COMPLETE: MAY 18, 2003!
Following an idea already started in the
“Captain Scarlet” TV series, and further developed in the Mary J.
Rudy and Kimberly Smith-Murphy’ stories.
As “Spectrum is White” served
to explore some aspects of Colonel White’s life, this one will do the same for
Captain Blue’s, who, like the Colonel
is also one of my favourite characters (It seems a lot of “Captain Scarlet”’ fans are fond of
the guy). Son of a wealthy American
financier, Adam Svenson has been all but disowned by his own father when he
choose to follow up a career as test pilot instead on following him in the family
business. Things then became even more
complicated when Adam joined Spectrum…
In this story, Blue and Symphony’s
project serves more or less as a pretext to learn more about Blue’s life (at
least, like I envision it) as well as a part of his past. Two new supporting characters are
introduced: Amanda Wainwright,
Symphony’ sympathetic mother, and the not-so-sympathetic John Svenson, Captain
Blue’s father. We also explore not only
the stressed relationship existing between Blue and his father, and his love
for Symphony, but also his friendship with his partner, Captain Scarlet, and
his relationship with his commander, Colonel White.
This story will also show a more human
side of the otherwise stern Colonel White, thus continuing what was already
began in “Spectrum is White”. It is not necessary to read “Spectrum is White” to appreciate “A Symphony in Blue”,
which is not its direct follow up.
Captain Blue and Symphony Angel thought
they could keep their relationship a secret on Cloudbase, especially from
Colonel White. But as revealed on “Spectrum is White”, the Colonel already knows about it, and even
suspects that there isn’t many people onboard who doesn’t know. Personally, I
don’t think ANYBODY can fool White. So
why Blue and Symphony should be able to hide their true feelings for each
other’s from him?
If not for the hard time Captain Blue
has in this, this story would be a fun one, as it contains scenes that are much
more light-hearted than in the atmosphere of the most darker “Spectrum is White”.
