"Thought of something? There wasn’t any problem with the ovum extraction but we discovered, after fertilizing it, that the cells were deteriorating too quickly.

"I had you come over to see what we’ve just found. Number one test subject."
"Test subject? Number one?" I mumbled before following him further in.
"We were shocked to find him but he’s humanity’s last hope."
I nodded, interest piqued.

I looked around. "How’s that possible?"
"You’re wrong. Someone had managed to do it twice."
"Twice? No way…"
