Spring Break Camping Trip
Washington State
9:30 AM
Interstate 97
Lisa was behind the wheel, driving down the I-97 in her 2021 Jayco Grayhawk Motorhome with her son and Indigo inside. They traveled from their native Oregon to neighboring Washington to the Yakama Indian Reservation, spending spring vacation.
Before the start of their trip, Lisa told her son the night before she would be out acquiring a motorhome and wouldn't be home until the following day where he should be ready to go by the time she got back home. Indigo dropped by the night before and slept over to spend time with Albert and Lisa.
With suitcases stuffed and ready in hand, Indigo and Albert, the love birds, stepped out of his home together. They didn't have to wait long for Albert's mother to stop by. She stopped the large motorhome and stepped out of the beast of the vehicle. Albert gawked at his mother like they were staring at another woman entirely.
Lisa wore a pair of tight, form-fitting black leggings with white stripes running down her legs. An opened green & black flannel shirt and a black sports bra underneath. She kept her hair tied in a bun and wore a black hat with a broken halo design on the front.
Indigo didn't take too kindly at Albert, gawking at his mother, and changed her clothes once they settled inside the motorhome. She walked out of the bedroom inside the motorhome wearing a pair of black and violet booty shorts, a black shirt, a black choker, and black and white shoes.
Now Albert's eyes went from staring at his mother to his girlfriend's luscious round booty. She kept her hair in its natural afro instead of tying it back in a ponytail like she usually did.
Lisa and Indigo engaged in a friendly staring match and occasionally threw gum wrappers at one another. Other times Lisa would stop at gas stations and let Albert take the wheel to learn how to drive the motorhome.
The motorhome was large enough for a small family of three to live. It had a queen-size bed in the back. Above the front seats was an overhead bed with a piece that the person sleeping can fold inward to allow the driver and passenger to get in and out of their seats.
The motorhome was large and spacious, with a lot of amenities. One of them was a large shower, a toilet, and a small sink and mirror. There's a trifold sofa, a dinette area to eat and drink at.
There were cabinets overhead that originated from the front of the motorhome to the back. The back room with the queen size bed had two wardrobes and a tv cabinet. There was a small fridge and a small kitchen with an electric stove and oven for cooking and heating food.
Two flags snapped and flapped atop the motorhome. One of them was a Mexican flag on one side of the motorhome, and the other was white, which bore a black upside cross.
To help them pass the time, Albert and Indigo listened to Lisa talk about an exciting topic on children born from the union of human and supernatural creatures.

"I have a question for you, Lisa. Given his parentage, does this make Albert half-human and half-angel? And does this make him better than most half-breeds?"
"That depends on your definition of what you think better is. A human-wolf hybrid or werewolf has many physical abilities that make them efficient in fighting.
However, despite all of this, they can still be killed and are susceptible to high levels of physical trauma, magical attacks, and elemental damage. Whereas, let's say children from human and fairy couplings will have quick access to a host of powerful magical abilities and spells that give them an advantage over many.
But magic does not make one invulnerable, invincible, or exempt from taking damage because all it takes is another magical being with greater levels of magic to kill them. But you asked me if half-human-angels are better. I can tell you that society favored certain hybrids over others in the past, and one of them is the half-angel.
For example, supernaturally attractive children are the products of an angel, elven and old gods mating with humans. Boys and girls that are supernaturally beautiful were the envy and the target of ancient secret societies to procure some of their blood. The blood of these hybrids could grant youth the gray-headed, instant health to the sick and dying, and even rarely, it could bestow some arbitrary power to the drinker.
Regardless of the hybrid, each must learn to harness its abilities and powers whether they want to or not. The range of capabilities and skills for all hybrids can be limitless. Okay, let me retract that, not endless. Still, a hybrid whose main and obvious forte is in the physical will undoubtedly rival the most physically powerful beings and heroes of legend and myth.
Since we made it to myths and legends, I want to recount a story about a particular demi-god. As you two already know, the definition of a demi-god is a child who is half-divine and half-human. One parent must be human, and the other a god or supernatural being with exceptional power. My son, Albert, can be considered a demi-god. He would have been one if he were born in ancient Greece instead of modern-day America.
Anyway, the demi-god I wanted to talk about is Aeneas. Do you two know who his parents were?"
Albert looked a little confused, not sure about the answer, but Indigo knew the answer immediately and spoke up.
"His mother was the goddess Aphrodite, and his father was either a prince or a noble by the name Anchises."
"Correct, Indigo!" Lisa praised her. "Prince Anchises and the goddess Aphrodite had sex and had a son named Aeneas. Contrary to having the most divinely attractive primordial spirit for a mother, their son was an average-looking young man. He was not born with any real supernatural powers like elemental control or love inducement like his mother. He did have heightened physical abilities that he used in numerous battles."
"Wait, did you know all three of them?" Albert asked her.
Lisa smiled at him, "I did know them. Aphrodite alongside the other Olympians. This includes most of the old deities and ancient spirits that came from the Aether. The Aether is a cut on the side of The Father that produces a host of spirits of varying powers and abilities.
However, none of these spirits pose any real threat to the host of Heaven since they come into existence with only a minuscule amount of power. What's little to God and the host of Heaven would be like the power of a mountain to a teeny tiny human."
"Wait s second, so what exactly are you trying to say then, mom?"
"Just because one parent is mortal and the other either divine or supernatural, doesn't always mean the child or children are going to inherit magical abilities. Aeneas had to have help from his mother and from Apollo to hone his heightened physical abilities.
