replied.
    “What?” Ellen asked.
    “Want my opinion?” Dean questioned. “Our Killer babies.”
    “Toddlers,” Frank corrected.
    “Whatever,” Dean said.
    “No.” Ellen added. “They can’t.”
    “Yeah, Dean,” Frank said. “They can’t.”
    “I didn’t think they could either.”
    “But they’re babies,” Ellen said.
    “Toddlers,” Frank corrected.
    “Whatever,” Dean said. “Think about this. They grow super-fast. What if reproductively they grow even faster? We have Marcus yeah, but we don’t know where he stands. He doesn’t have a mate. Fast reproduction would explain Ellen, why in the future there are so many and we are overrun.”
    “No,” Frank shook his head. “They can’t. They’re gay.”
    Dean’s head cocked and he looked at Frank. “Excuse me?”
    “They’re fucking gay, Dean. Two men. Two women, Together.” Frank snickered. “That was good, huh? Anyhow, even I know two of the same sexes can’t have a baby.”
    “But they’re gay?” Dean asked.
    “Yeah.”
    “Where are you getting that from?”
    ‘You.”
    “I never said they were gay, Frank.”
    “A-huh did too. You said.”
    “No I did not,” Dean snapped.
    “Dean, you did. You said they were bisexual.”
    “What?” Dean laughed.
    Ellen interjected. “Bisexual isn’t gay, it means they go both ways.”
    “Like Henry?” Frank asked.
    Ellen nodded.
    Dean chuckled. “I didn’t say bisexual. I said asexual.”
    Frank waved out his hand. “Same difference.”
    “No it is not. God!” Dean barked.
    “Doesn’t matter, still gay. If two men have sex they are …” he held out his hand waiting for an answer.
    Dean answered. “Gay.”
    “Two women having sex. El?” Frank asked.
    “Gay.” Ellen nodded.
    “Then two asexual having sex would be gay.” Frank nodded.
    “I was referring to the fact that I didn’t think they had a sex determination,” Dean said. “They were neither male nor female.”
    Frank fluttered his lips. “Even better. Two non-gender … Gay.”
    Dean growled in frustration. “Ok. Why would you assume they were having sex?”
    “Well, you can’t have babies if you don’t have sex.” Frank pointed to his temple. “And I saw them. I think. Yeah. Pretty sure. The day I got your coyote. I thought I saw two of them having sex.”
    “Oh my God.” Dean stumbled back. “Do you know what this means?”
    “Yes,” Frank said. “They’re gay.”
    “No!” Dean snapped. “It means they could be reproducing.”
    “Oh shit,” Ellen said. “Killer babies …”
    ‘Toddlers.” Frank corrected.
    “Can you imagine,” Ellen continued. “Killer Toddlers having babies.”
    “Fuck,” Frank blurted. “They have to be some small ass babies. Fuck. Now we have killer off spring. Which could be even more killer than the Killer Toddlers were when they were babies. I haven’t trained them.”
    Dean said. “A new civilization.”
    “What do we do?” Ellen asked.
    “Find out for sure,” Dean replied. “And for that.” He turned to Frank. “Looks like you’re gonna have more than coyotes to look for up there.”
    Frank grinned. “Oh, yeah.”

    Robbie arrived in Bowman, just in time for the radio call that George was ready to land. He gave him coordinates and told him what to look for.
    They spotted the plane fly overhead.
    The signal that Hal and Elliott had to go to the landing strip.
    “Frank said the housing is ready for him” Hal said as he drove. “You are to take him to Beginnings. Frank wants to meet with him first to determine exactly why he is here and what the agenda is.”
    “Yes, Captain.”
    “Frank would … no we all would like very much for you not to be far from his side. At least until we make that determination.”
    “Understood Captain.”
    “Are you nervous?” Hal asked.
    “Absolutely, not,” Elliot responded.
    Hal stopped the jeep, watching as it landed. “Well, I am. This is an unprecedented day for Beginnings and to be
