AND THE NEW EXPERIMENT BEGINS~! XD
[I think I leaked too much...]
ANYWAY, ENJOY~!

*Synch's POV, not to long later*

"Hey, anyone home?"
Synch knocked on the weathered door at the entrance.
"Who's there?" an obvious pretend adult voice questioned from the other side.
"Ms. Mayu, it's your dear brother, Clear-Wing, who has come to visit after my excruciatingly long absence." He said dramatically.
The door then swung open and a small violet-haired girl lunged on Synch, almost making him lose his balance.
"Synch-nii, We're so glad you finally came back home!" She exclaimed as she embraced her 'brother'.
"Wait, 'We'?" I thought aloud as a sudden stampede of children came running out from the little doorway towards Synch, who fell to the ground from all the force.
"I see that 'yall are getting' stronger, takin' me down like that!" He chuckled lightheartedly.
"Where were you, Synch-nii?" A boy asked, and that sparked a wave of questions coming from everybody.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, slow down, little sibs, one at a time, 'aright?" He had a warm smile on his face as he started taking questions.
/They seem to accept him as a person even though he's a Dracon,/ I talked to my mistress through our telepathic bond.
/I see, and the children even have a happier aura now that they see him, safe, and unharmed./ Hikari stated, as she could analyze multiple people's life force just by looking at them.
"Synch-nii, who're they?" A child pointed a small finger at both of us.
"Oh, you mean Hikari and Pendulum?" He asked the kid as he got down to his level.
"They're people I had to save from the Top Cops," Synch explained as all the children stared at him with lit-up eyes.
"And Pendulum there is another me!" He grinned at me. The kids 'Ooohed' as all their attention turned to me, then Hikari.
"And Hikari's apparently Pen's girlfriend." He tried to whisper to the mass, but Hikari slowly became red with embarrassment.
Suddenly, all the girls came in a small ring around Hikari. "Hikari-chan, you look so pretty, are you a princess?" One child said, Hikari sat down, and the others imitated her.
"Well, I actually am a princess, from another world!" She started.
"You, see I had quite a journey from my home to here, would you like to hear it?"
"YEAH!" Hikari laughed lightly as she began her story.

*That night*

"Pendulum, make yourself comfortable," I said as I showed him where he'd be staying for the night.
"I'm going to go get the kids ready for bed."
"Thanks, Synch, goodnight." The redhead said as I walked towards the entrance to the room.
"No prob, and 'Night, Pen~." I sang as I closed the door and headed to each of the kid's rooms to see that they were ready to go to sleep. After about an hour and a half, I finally made my way to my own room, where I fell asleep instantly.
I slept soundly, until a whisper of a voice called out.
"It has so much potential, it would be a good Guardian…."
I slightly opened an eye, but saw nobody.
/I can't be that tired, right?/
I shook it off and continued my 8 hours.
"Let the ceremony begin…"
I snapped my eyes open when I felt a warm palm on my gem, along with a pulsing white light.
"W-what…..a-are….'ya...doin' to me?!" I snarled at whoever was preforming this odd thing to me.
I got no answer as a sudden burst of agony came coursing through my body, and a feeling of burning on my collarbone.
"….P-please….YAMERO!" I screamed as I suddenly fell on the hardwood floor, out of breath, my whole body throbbing.
"…Now, you're my Guardian," A male voice said as cool hands cupped my cheeks and a pair of luminous gold eyes reflected the pale moonlight.
"From now, until the end of time…"

*The next Morning*

"Hey, Synch-nii, it's time to ea- AHHH!" I heard a scream of one of my siblings as I slowly creaked open my eyes to see what had happened, but I saw nothing, and they slammed shut again.
"Synch, wake up, Daijoubu?" I was scooped up in gentle, but strong arms, and the voice was light and silky, so it must've been Hikari.
"Hikari….hora…" Pen said as a silence fell in the room as a small groan came from someone else.
"Wha….Hikari...Pen…?" I heard a new voice ask sleepily.
"Kage, what are you doing here?" She asked, apparently knowing this person.
"What do you think, Sis?" He yawned.
"I was finding a Guardian, just like you." I then fluttered my eyes open to see a male with stark-white hair, a pale complexion, and almost glowing golden orbs.
The teen now known as Kage crawled over to me and barely tugged at the hem of my shirt, and there, where it was burning earlier, was a silver, glowing '96' on my collarbone.
"As you can see, Hikari, I now have a guardian."
