"You're telling me aliens are real?!" Danny cried, walking backward just to face his sister. Sam, walking beside him, instinctively guided his elbow away from a looming lamppost.

Jazz nodded again. Tucker quickly interjected, "And they are superheroes, don't forget that!"

"And they're superheroes!" Danny exclaimed. His face was so bright it was almost blinding, a metaphor Tucker entertained right up until he noticed that Danny's eyes genuinely were a tad too luminous for a human being. "Maybe you'll get to meet them one day."

"Maybe..." Danny whispered, trailing off into a dreamy silence.

A smile stayed plastered to Tucker's face, but his insides were churning. He was drowning in the realization that the massive problem with the GIW they were facing was likely a governmental conspiracy far beyond their initial scope.

How do you tell your best friend that this already terrifying situation is almost certainly way, way worse than expected?
