"Rem, come quick! She's giving birth!"

Rem's smirk vanished. She whirled, and Joey looked up from his seat behind her. "Are you serious?"

"Hurry, she's in pain!"

Rem ran. Though she was no doctor, plants were her thing. She wouldn't miss this for the world—any world.

Nearly three hours passed. The crew stood silent, speechless.

"There're two."

"They're...they're male..."

"How come there are two?"

"They can't be full plants if they're male."

"But who..."

The question hung heavy in the air. Rem's mind whirled with implications, possibilities.

Was it possible the plants were compatible with people?
