“Rick, Is she an alien?” Adam ventured the question.

“You are indeed your father’s son.” He paused for a moment. “Yes.”

Adam opened his eyes wide.

“And no,” Rick continued.

“What do you mean?” Adam blurted.

“She is a hybrid.”

“A hybrid?” Adam tensed his brow.

“She has human and alien DNA.”

“How is that even possible?!”

“What is possible and not possible will be left in your rear view mirror if you keep asking questions like this. In any case, I already told you way more than I should. So let’s leave it at that for now.”

“Are you kidding me? You can just leave me hanging like this?” Adam protested.

“Well, you will just have to deal with it, Adam. I really can’t say anymore. You can just ask your Dad if he comes back.”

“If he comes back? You mean, when he comes back , right? And back from where exactly?”

“Again, I can’t say anything else. And yes, you are right, when he comes back,” Rick placed a reassuring hand on Adam’s shoulder before walking out of the room, probably to go find Helena before she caused more trouble.
