A/N: All right peoples, there was a problem between chapters 3,4,and 5. Go back and read them if you need to.
I basing my thoughts on that normal people have two or three helpings of sugar in their tea (which means I would have four) so just go with me here when I say that eight sugars is a lot.

Abel sighed. His world was completely at ease again. Demetry had revived his sister and explained to him that the country would be fine until they sorted something out. The only people to know of the fall for at least the next two weeks would be the city of Dormaloone, and by time the next town over was there, someone would be in power again.
Abel looked across the train compartment at his two new friends. Demetry was attempting, but not succeeding, to sleep, while Stella annoyed him in every subtle way. It seemed that he made the girl actually act the age she looked (of course, by now Abel estimated her to be almost as old as him). Deciding it was time to have some fun; he put on a very serious face.
"So, Stella…" Abel started, getting her attention. "How come the first thing you think when you are rejuvenated from death is that I messed up?"
Stella looked at him and for the first time Abel had ever seen her, blushed a deep crimson. "Well… er… Be quiet, Abel, can't you see Demetry's trying to sleep."
Grinning like a schoolboy, Demetry jumped up. "Nope! I'm up. Go on, Stella."
Stella gave him an Oh-I-am-so-going-to-get-you-in-your-sleep look. "Um…."
"Stella, you know it isn't polite to put things off." Abel said.
"Er…. oh, I'll go get tea! Thirteen sugars for you, Abel, eight for you Demetry? Right, bye now." Stella ran out of the compartment as fast as her feet could carry her, which was fairly fast considering everything.
"Thirteen?" Demetry raised an eyebrow.
"Eh? What about you! Eight sugars are a lot." Said Abel, immediately taking the defensive.
Demetry shrugged and upturned his palms. "What can I say? I love sugary stuff. You wouldn't believe me if I told you some of the things I put extra sugar on."
"Well, your not alone." Abel nearly shouted cheerfully.
It was then that Stella decided to make her entrance. She passed out the drinks and sat down across from Abel. As the men drank their tea silently, she looked out the window and seemed to be holding back.
"Stel? Is there something you need to say?" asked Demetry gently, using what Abel guessed was his pet name for her.
Stella turned to him. "Well… I don't want to go back." She said bluntly.
Demetry raised an eyebrow. He closed his eyes and thought for a minute. "Well, you shouldn't have to. But, pray tell, where will you go?"
Stella smiled at her brother. "De, you looked just like Father for a minute." Demetry groaned and Stella rolled her eyes. "Its not a bad thing."
"That's what you think." Demetry muttered darkly and returned to sipping his tea.
Abel looked seriously at Stella. He too wanted to know where she would go. "Stella, you never answered your brother's question."
Stella blushed again and Abel concealed a grin. He could get used to this. Stella saw the grin and pouted. "Why, Father Nightroad, I do believe you enjoy putting me in these situations." She said with mock hurt. She pressed her lips together and said in one breath, "Demetry, please don't be mad at me, but I want to continue working for AX."
Demtry raised an eyebrow. "How come?"
Stella shrugged and started ticking off fingers. "One, they are a good cause. Well, at least the making sure there is peace between the countries part. Two, it will keep me busy. You know how stir crazy I am ever since the trip. Three, my powers should be put to good use. Four, I have a much higher tolerance level that most when it comes to Methuselah and Terrans."
"Which was why you only killed seven of them." Demetry said, not looking at her but raising the cup to his lips.
Stella hit his arm and he ended up choking and spluttering. "There's going to be a dead Titan if you don't keep quiet." She stared daggers at the chuckling Abel. "That goes for you too, Father Nightroad."
Demetry raised his hands up in surrender. "All right, but I have one more question. This is for Father Nightroad."
"Which is…?"
"Who are your children?"
"Father Abel Nightroad, Cardinal Kate wishes your presence in her office to know how your mission was."
"Uh… Thanks, Tres." Abel said and moved to go to the office.
"Father Abel Nightorad."
"Hm?"
"I request information as to why you have an extra unknown member in your party."
Demetry stepped forward. "Demetry Iceheart, at your service."
"Acceptable."
"Why does he talk like that?" Demetry whispered loudly to his sister.
"He's an android." Stella whispered back. She stepped forward as well. "Tres, this is my brother. He came back with us after… you know what? Just download a copy of the report."
"Acceptable." Tres turned on his heel and led them down the long hallways.
"Demetry, be on your best behavior when we meet with Cardinal Kate, this is my first mission and I want her to know it went off without a hitch."
Demetry saluted her. "Yes ma'am. Mission: To not totally screw up baby sister's chances at entering a highly dangerous organization."
"I am not a baby! I'm probably almost as old as the rest of the people here, in human years." Stella hissed as they entered the office.
Cardinal Kate's hologram sat behind the large desk. "Well?" she asked expectantly.
"Emperor successfully assassinated and country in a nice uproar. They should be all right for at least another week." Stella said as respectfully as she could after three and a half days of her brother's influence.
"Good. Now we have to decide what to do about leadership." Cardinal Kate said seriously.
Stella thought for a minute, and then grinning like a bobcat, she spoke. "May I make a suggestion?"
Kate eyed her thoughtfully. Then, sighing she consented. "All right, you do know more about the country than I do."
"Let Demetry run it."
"What?" Cardinal Kate looked more surprised than angry.
"The country needs a leader that is impartial to both Terrans and Methusalah. Being neither, Demetry can rule fairly. Besides that, he loves people and would die so that the citizens were happy."
Cardinal Kate raised an eyebrow at the new information. She hadn't yet been told about the Titan siblings. "And what exactly, is he."
Stella sighed and took a chair. "This is a long story, but here goes. We were both born in a lab…"
A/N: Well here you go. This has been hell with this chapter so you had better be happy! I'm sorry I haven't gotten it out sooner, but I have been starting a new fanfic. Oh well, sucks to be you. Deal with it.
