.. I'm gonna tell myfolks I'm trans."I hugged her, and said, "It's about time. Besides, it won't be much ofa shock to them, if they've paid as close ...ttention as I have."She looked sad, but said, " I hope you're right. I dont want to end upextinct." No going extinct for you. You'll just evolve into a stronger form, likePokemon."She giggled, and looked up at the T-Rex display and mimed holding apokeball, and said, "T-Rex I choose you to tell my parents for me!"I hugged her again and we both. "Sorry," she apologized. "No apology necessary," I assured her. "It must have been tough." "It was. We'd grown to love both of them very much, and that didn't happen too often. It was a real tragedy, for their families and their friends as well." "So, did you continue your swinging after that?"

Go to the country and hide out there." We'll be fine." But it will be two days before Yom Kippur!" I pointed out."We'll fast someplace else," she told me trying to reassure me."But why us?"

I asked."I don't know," mama said wringing her hands."It is not right, mama," I continued."I don't know," she said, hiding tears from me. "I don't know." If papa were here I KNOW he would listen to me!" IVAN!"I knew. "He's going to be here in two hours. I'm going to break you out." Why should I trust you?" Because I've read your file, and I'm the only one you've got."She went on to explain that even after his project was scrubbed, there were some in Washington who were itching to revive it. He was destined to be shipped back to Washington, where he'd be systematically disassembled and used as a blue-print for making more.Washington scientists were also eager at the discovery of Chip and Becky to have two.
