The twins weren't calm until after the Andromeda returned to normal space. It was only then after they were given the all clear sign, did Dylan turned upon the newest guests with questions. "Who are you?" he asked, as Trinity and Riley looked up from playing with the twins. "What are you?"
"We're avatars," Trinity pointed out. "Put we really aren't good ones, since we kinda lost our suns."
"How can you loose two suns?" Harper asked, as he came into the room followed by Rhade, Trevor, and Dominic. "I mean, there aren't that many left out there."
"They were taken away when they became avatars," Trance replied, as she looked at them. "But the young twins, are not avatars. They are human."
"Yes, they are," Riley said, as he looked down at Apollo and Hazel. "They are meant to be the rulers of the New Common Wealth. They have been breed for that purpose."
"Oh, really," Dylan said, as he looked down at the twins. "Another reason, why the Abyss would want them dead. The Abyss hates the Common Wealth."
"Our adopted human parents devoted their lives into protecting them and they died doing so. It's only fitting that Trinity and I protect them for as long as we can. We kinda did hope that we would run across the Andromeda sooner than later in our voyage. I just wished that it had been under better circumstances." Riley then shot a glance over to see that Trinity had tears in the corner of her eyes. "They may not have been our real parents, but they took us in when no one else did, and they raised us."
"So you guys are avatars?" Devon asked with a touch of joy in her voice. "That's totally cool. I'm an avatar too."
"That's great. We can be buddies," Trinity said, as she looked around. "Since we've find the Andromeda, maybe now, we can try to locate our suns."
"We might be able to help you with that," Dylan said, and both sets of twins smiled.
"We're going to need more rooms painted," Beka pointed out, causing Devon to smile. "Harper, that's your job."
"Two more rooms?" Harper cried out, as then smiled. "Sounds like fun. Are we going with the whole sun theme for them?"
"Sun theme?" Trinity asked Devon, as she picked up Hazel who was walking away. "What does he mean by that?"
"Harper, why don't you, Trance, and Devon go show the twins," Dylan said, as he turned to look at Dominic. "We have some things to talk about young man."
"I'm not scared of you," Dominic said, as he shot a glance over at Trevor.
"Trevor, why don't we go pick out a room for you?" Beka said, as she took his hand. "We'll let the boys talk."
"Okay," Trevor replied, causing Dominic's face to fall, as his brother left. "Can mine get painted too?"
"I'm sure we can think of something." The doors shut behind them.
"Okay, Dominic, why did you send our location to the Magog" Dylan asked him.
"Because I wanted to get read of the half breed."
"Which one?"
"Trinity. Father said she would cause trouble. She's an Avatar of a sun. There is no such thing." Just then the door opened and walked in. "What do you want?"
"I just came to ask Dylan a question," Devon replied, as she looked at him. "You do not have to be so rude."
"Well, like I was saying. There are no such things as Avatars of suns." Devon's face then dropped and Dominic smiled. "What? Did I crush your dreams of meeting one of those freaks?"
"No, I'm one of those freaks." Devon then turned and bolted out of the room only to crash into Rommie. "Sorry, Rommie." She got up and headed for her room in tears.
"What did you say to her?" Rommie asked Dominic as she came up to them. "You clearly upset her."
"I said that there are no such things are as Avatars of Suns. Avatars of Ships are highly dumb."
"Watch it," Rhade said, cutting him off. "You do not want to upset Rommie."
"I don't really care."
"Fine, you will," Dylan said, as he looked over at Rommie. "But him in the brig, and keep him there until he decides to play nice."
"Yes, sir." Rommie grabbed Dominic by the back of the shirt and hauled him towards the brig."
"That boy has to learn manners," Dylan said, as he and Rhade headed for the command deck.
"He learned his hatred from his father," Rhade pointed out. "That is something that usually takes a while to change."
"I know. These next few days are going to be so much fun."
"You're right about that."
