"Oh, Mitchie!" Called a short blonde Fledgling in a sing-song voice.

The two were playing hide and seek and Mitch was currently hiding in between the cushions of the back of the couch, teaming up with the Masters who sat back casually lightly squeezing Mitch in as if they knew nothing.

"Sires, have you seen Mitch?" Kirstie asked, while Mitchs mouth gaped. Thats cheating!

"Sorry, baby. Why dont you listen for him you might just catch him giggling or something." Avi smiled, lying through his perfect teeth.

So she did. She closed her eyes and focused and caught on to Mitch's breathing.

"He's breathing!"

"Well that's how you stay alive. I would be worried if he wasn't, Kit." Scott said in a 'duh' tone. Avi barked out a laugh but quickly shut up when he caught Kirstie's glare.

Kirstie stuck her tongue out at Scott and kept on walking around, knowing he was somewhere in the room.

Mitch tried to keep a laugh in but couldn't and made a weird throat noise.

Kirstie perked her head up from behind the coffee table, across the Masters, which made the two laugh.

She jumped up onto the couch peering into the noticeable crack of the cushion and back of the couch that Mitch was wedged in between.

"Aha!" Mitch squealed and got himself out with little struggle.

"Oh my God, you were there the whole time how come we didn't see you?" Scott said, sarcasm in each word.

Kevin walked in before Kirstie had the chance to talk back with a phone in hand.

"Avi, remember we need to get the Fledgelings checked out at the Agency?" Kevin smiled.

"Oh shi.....taki mushrooms. Um..." He cringed slightly before moving on while the 4 raised their eyebrows. "No I didn't remember, but thanks for reminding me, everyone get dressed."

As they walked into the busy building Mitch decided to speak up.

"Do you know what they're testing today?" He looked to Kevin seeing as he knew everything.

"Um, something to do with your Fledgeling and how you react to stuff." Kevin replied with a soft smile.

"Wow, it's been awhile since they've been free. I forgot what it felt like." Kirstie's voice softly said, almost like she was speaking to herself.

(A/N: I've decided to make the Fledgelings have Fledgelings. Wow specific. I know right? Its basically like wolf stories with a whole nother person in your head thats your "wolf" but instead its their Fledgling. The difference is that they dont talk to Kirstie and Mitch in their minds. Mitch's is a girl named Michelle. So original. Kirstie's is named Kristen. Bet you didnt see that one coming XD.)

A Keeper with a clip board walks over to the clan with a cheery personality.

"Hi! I'm Todrick" The boy waved with a bright smile, pushing up his glasses in front of his hazel-brown eyes.

"I hope I'm talking to the 'Pentatonix' clan?" He continues taking a quick glance at the paper on his board.

"Yes. Um, that would be us." Kevin replies for the group. Scott smiles taking a glance at him.

"Well, great! If you could just follow me ill show you the testing room and the room you 3 will be watching through."

"Wait, watching through? Why cant we be there?" Scott asked the Keeper, slightly sceptical.

"The last time we let a Master stay in the room with the Fledgeling during the testing something happened that I wouldnt like to say..." Todrick cringed and stopped in between two doors.

He point to the one on the left. "When Mitchell and... Kirstin?" He glanced up from his board to make sure before continuing.

"-are ready they may go inside, the Masters and Keeper can go to the door on the right where there is a one sided glass, allowing you to see what is going on. The testing door will be unlocked in case of emergency but will have someone standing there if the Fledgelings gets aggressive and tries to escape." Todrick sounded almost robotic, repeating what he has had to say to everybody.

"I will give the little ones a minute to concentrate to let their Fledgelings out than give them a series of questions and, or, items to see if the Fledgeling has a basic understanding of it or how it's used. Then we will give or act out a scenario to see what they would do in a certain situation." Todrick smiled. "Any questions?"

A pause of silence grew over the group while they shook their heads.

"Great! Head on in there when you're ready!" Todrick turned around and walked into the room as Mitch flinched from his sudden outburst of happiness.

"Don't be scared guys, it's nothing serious. You'll do great." Avi said patting their shoulders lightly.

"Okay, lets go. Hopefully Michelle answers at least half of the questions right " Mitch mumbled grabbing Kirstie's hand and heading inside after waving to their Masters.

Once everyone was situated Michelle and Kristen came out from hibernation to start the test. Their orange eyes and tiny fangs on display, staying there until Mitch and Kirstie came back.

"Phew, I feel physically dead inside with how long I was trapped in our little body." Michelle shook herself off and bounced around a little.

"Did my boobs grow?" Kristen said lifting and staring down her shirt.

"Be lucky you have boobs. I'm a male looking female." Michelle lightly slapped her shoulder.

Todrick decided to let the Fledgelings be social for a bit before testing, seeing as they havent been out for a while.

"Ya'know you guys are stupid I can clearly smell Master behind that wall." Michelle pointed to the wall where the group was watching.

"Hey, they're laughing at us!" Kristen crosses her arms pouting.

"Just threaten them with sex it always works."

"But I like the sex..." Kristen says out loud.

Michelle scrunched her face up and slowly turned her face to her.

"Alright, haha. Um. Let's start the test now, yeah?" Todrick stood in front of them chuckling awkwardly.

"Test? Are you kidding me? Ive been trapped for a whole year and when I come out I'm tested on? Im done, can I go back to hibernation?" Michelle replied.

"What size bra am I now? Jeez." Kristen, still infatuated with underneath her shirt.

"God, your so lucky you're gorgeous, it makes up for your lack of being mentally present on earth." An annoyed Michelle looked over as Kristen's mouth gaped looking over to her.

"Okay! Time to start!"

Todrick started a timer as the Masters and Keeper recovered from their tears of laughter.

"What is this and what did it used to be used for?" Todrick asked holding up an old looking collar.

"Jesus, that's as old as dust where did you find it?" Michelle exclaimed.

"Please answer the question." Todrick asks nicely.

"Its a collar and was used before marking was discovered. Which was a long time ago." Kristen replied obediently.

"They put it on the Fledgeling's neck to claim them as their own, the collar had the Master's name on it, sometimes even a small picture, so others knew who they belonged to." Michelle continued, smiling to herself afterwards.

"Great job! Next question..."

Michelle rolled her eyes popping her hip out as Scott smiled in adoration at his sassy Fledgeling.
