And then there were two

Tohi reaches down towards Mochi's neck and a blue aura begins to come out of his hands. Tamaki moves a little closer to get a better look at what was happening, Tohi doing things like this didn't necessarily surprise him but it did always fascinate him. After a few minutes, Tamaki hears a small crackling sound, and then Tohi moves his hands away from Mochi's body.

"All done! I hope you know you owe me big time for that. Without me you could have been punished~" says Tohi as he cracks his fingers.

"Honestly I do, thanks a lot," Tamaki says with a slightly relieved look on his face.

"Oh? That's a first, is this you actually taking your job seriously?" Says Tohi with a shocked look on his face.

"Well like I said before, they told me my last straw before they turned me into one of those things and let me loose into the Void. If you were in my position you would be grateful too." Said Tamaki as he scratched the back of his head

"That's very true. Also, what's this girl's name?" Said Tohi.

"Her name is Mochi. Also, stay with her for a few minutes, I'm going to try and find her some medicine or something to drink." Tamaki says as he leaves the room.

As the door closed Tohi got up and slowly started to walk back over to the couch where Mochi was laying down. He lifted her up and sat down with her head laid on his lap. He looked down at her face and started to stare, analyzing it intently. After fully getting a look at he ran his fingers through her hair, intimately.

"I can see why Daddy kept me away from these guardians... they're quite cute." He said as he stopped stroking her hair and reached down and kissed her on the forehead. Doing so caused a little blue star to appear on the back of her neck.

"You will be mine, Mochi." He said as he started to stroke her hair again. Then all of a sudden Mochi opened her eyes with a grossed-out look on her face.

"What is wrong with you? Do you usually kiss girls that are unconscious?" She said as moved herself to the opposite end of the couch.

"Oh... you were awake that entire time...I'm sorry... I got a little carried away. I haven't met a guardian before and I-" He just stops talking due to the embarrassment.

"Yeah, who are you anyway and where is Tamaki? Is he the one that brought me here?" Mochi said.

"My name is Tohi, I'm a seeker. Tamaki stepped away for a moment just to grab you something." Tohi said in a shaky voice.

"Whatever happened to me? The last thing I remember is that I collapsed and my friend went to go get someone for me." Mochi said.

"From what he told me, you met my father and he put something on you to keep you quiet from talking about guardians. Speaking of, I sincerely apologize on my Father's behalf. I know he can be a brute a lot of the time." Tohi said.

"That's right, I remember him putting something on my soul and when I went to test what it did I collapsed. Your father almost choked me with two fingers! Why is he so big and you're so...small." Mochi said with a confused look on her face.

"Well... maybe I should explain more about who I am, or who we are. My father, also known as the Grandmaster, runs everything regarding the Void, guardians, and the seekers. He isn't human, I want to make that clear, but I don't know exactly what he or what I am." Tohi said as he crosses his legs.

"So If you're the son of the grandmaster, then why are you only considered a seeker? Wouldn't you be seen as royalty?" Mochi said puzzled.

"Well, the thing is that my father didn't even want me to leave his sight. He's so overprotective of me that it smothers me. I got so sick of it that I begged him to let me become a seeker and, after tons of begging, he finally allowed me to. However, he won't assign me to a guardian. Actually, you're the first guardian I've met in person, keep in mind that I'm 17 as well." Tohi said in an annoyed tone.

"Why won't he let you watch over a guardian? Did he have a negative experienced or something?" Said Mochi.

"That's actually what it is haha. Even though my father is the head of everything he has a council that assists him with any decisions that need to be made. They absolutely prohibited any form of a personal relationship with him and the guardians, which makes sense because you are seen as expendable. Well, he did the exact thing that he wasn't supposed to do. There was a guardian the same as Jiyu. He fell in love with her at first sight, she had dark brown skin, long straight hair with blue hair. He would sneak away with her every time that he could, but that would be short-lived. He pretty much acted as her guardian but one time while she was fighting an LDE he was too late and she tragically fell. When he arrived where she died she had turned into an LDE. He was in so much shock that-" he was cut off for one second.

"Wait did you say that she turned into an LDE? Can I turn into an LDE?" Mochi said kinda scared.

"Tamaki didn't mention that to you? He is really a terrible seeker. You can turn into an LDE but only under circumstances. It all depends on how much despair you're feeling at that moment, to help prevent this from happening there should be an app on your phone to check your levels." said Tohi.

"Tohi never mentioned the app to me either, Today was the first we formally talked but you would think he'd tell me something so important." Said Mochi.

"I was wondering why he left randomly, he went to talk to you huh? He was only gone for about one hour, I wonder why he left so early he didn't have anything else to do. But anyway back to the story. But like I was saying, he was in so much shock that he couldn't do anything but grab her phone and left. He told me that he feels so much regret for not putting her down because he knew that she wouldn't have wanted that, but he just couldn't. When he finally got somewhere where he can be alone he went through a phone and found a video she recorded just in case something like this happened. In the video, she mentioned that he had gotten her pregnant months back and she hid it from him to not cause a stir. She told him to go to her house and to take care of them for her. He teleports there within seconds and there he found me, laying in the bed asleep. He said when he first picked me up I started to cry and my eyes glowed the same way that he did and he know that I was his child. Ever since every time he saw a guardian he gets reminded of what happened to her and he gets filled with anger and possibly lashes out, which is why he probably treated you the way he did. He never wanted me to leave his sight because I was the only thing that was left of my mother." Tohi said putting his hands on his knees.

"I'm...so sorry that you never got to meet your mother. I couldn't imagine being so sheltered and not having my mother, you must be so alone." Said Mochi in a sad tone.

"It's quite alright, I've made a peace with what happened. But I want to get my father out of the mindset of seeing guardians as terrible people. So starting today, you're going to have two seekers from now on. When you need any help or you don't want Tamaki just call my name and I'll come. When I...kissed your forehead it put an enchantment on your body so ill come to your call. Also just so you know you can always just push Tamaki to the side and let me be your one and only. I meant when I said you'll be mine." Tohi said with a smirk on his face.

"Thanks, but no thanks. I don't want a creep who kisses girls without consent to come to save me, I don't know what you'll do to me next time." Mochi said in a serious tone.

"Hey! Don't let this first meeting keep you not wanting to get close to me. Also Tamaki you can come out, I know you've been standing behind the door this entire time. Tohi said as he turned to the door.

"I didn't want to ruin your moment, and I hope you know you can't just assign yourself to a guardian, you're father will find out." Said Tamaki and he walked through the door with his hands in his pocket.

"He won't find out trust me." Tohi said confidently.

"You just don't care for consent, huh? Anyways, Tamaki can you take me home now? I know that Yufumi is probably freaking out right now." Mochi said while standing up.

"Yeah let's go, I don't want to get in trouble because you aren't really supposed to be here." Tohi said as he walked towards her and put his hand on her shoulder.

"See you later." Tohi said with a smile. Mochi did a small wave and they soon teleport to her outside of her house where there was a swarm of police cars waiting for her.

"Well, this going to be fun to explain." Said Mochi in an annoyed voice.
