At her house Reba, Brock, Van, Barbara Jean, Cheyenne are in the living room as Typhuss is pacing about and remembers what Kira told him and he walks into the living room.

All right, I have something to tell you but you aren't going to like it, for the past 13 years I having been keep a secret from all of you, I'm just going to say it, I'm Red Arrow Typhuss says as he looks at Brock, Van, Barbara Jean and Cheyenne.

Everyone is shocked by this revelation as Cheyenne chimes in.

You lied to me for 13 years, Typhuss Cheyenne says as she looks at Typhuss.

Typhuss looks at her.

I didn't have a choice, my enemies would have killed all of you and that would have just made all of you targets Typhuss says as he looks at Cheyenne and the others.

Barbara Jean chimes in.

You would disappear for hours, days even and you are telling me that you spend your nights beating up criminals and saving Star City, you didn't even tell me and your uncle about it, your heroic deeds Barbara Jean says as she looks at Typhuss.

Typhuss looks at her.

If I had told the both of you about it my enemies would use you against me, to get to me and thought of criminals hurting you and uncle Brock made me worry about your safety, so by not telling you I was keeping the both of you safe from harm Typhuss says as he looks at Barbara Jean.

Van looks at him.

Van, if you have something to say, tomorrow is too late, out with it Typhuss says as he looks at Van.

He looks at him.

I can't believe it you lied to everyone you cared about and now you think after coming out you've made peace with yourself? Van asked as he looks at him.

Typhuss looks at him.

Yes, I have and I had to tell the public and Starfleet, last year I almost lost B'Elanna's friendship because of this secret and I did this for myself, I couldn't lie to my friends and family anymore even Kira knows, I told her two years ago Typhuss says as he looks at Van.

He gets up and paces about as Reba looks at Typhuss.

I have made peace with myself and I had to tell my friends, I was protecting this family from danger doesn't that matter to you Typhuss says as he looks at Reba and the others.

Reba looks at her nephew.

Yes we do Typhuss Reba says as she looks at him.

Typhuss smiles at her.

If I had to do it over again, I would do the same thing to keep all of you safe from danger Typhuss says as he looks at Reba and the others.

Reba looks at him.

Well now that's over why don't I make us all something to eat its been awhile since you've had a meal that was real and not replicated Reba says as she looks at them then at Typhuss.

Typhuss smiles at her.
