The Rainbow and the Flame(A Vampireverse story)

Chapter 21:Family

Encre's POV

"Ugh.....My head hurts.....What happened? Where am I?"I mumble

I slowly wake up.

I look around carefully. I'm in some kind of bedroom. Quickly, my memories hit me. I look around, concerned about my kids and Suave. I realize that I'm smaller, like a kid. I look around, trying to find a way out. I check for some of my things, finding my ring in a drawer with my necklace. I put them on. I hear footsteps. I see through some glass a silhouette.

"Ah, you must be the artist brainwashed by the vampire king. Poor soul."A voice says

I squint, trying to make details out. I could tell they are human. They step closer to the glass. I recognize him, though never met him. He is the stupid king that Suave fears.

"Where are my kids?! And where is Suave?!"I snap

"Oh dear, you are still under his influence, huh? Blackmail, huh? I have taken them off your hands. Run some tests even. And who is Suave?"He says

"He is my best friend! You would call him Failure12!"I say

"Ah, so that's the alias he has taken on. The life he's made.....Huh, can't wait to ruin it!"He says

"You leave them alone!"I snap

"Oh don't worry, I will be having my fun. Yet so-called Suave won't be as fun as I imagined....My son learned about him and wants him. He is into bad boys or something and considers Suave one. All I have to do is use special ways to persuade him."He says

Pfft, Suave is nothing close to a bad boy. Unless knowing the dictionary by heart counts!

"What's so funny?"He asks as I chuckle

"Suave is nothing close to a bad boy! He is a sweet angel and one of the greatest people I know! Your son is gonna be disappointed. Unless hearing about the dictionary is something appealing to him!"I say

"Huh...Interesting. Now, let's play a game. Or a test. I will release you to a lower area full of Failures that I made to look like you. There is no way for you to get out. I will send those children in and set a timer. If they don't find the real you in time, they get punished and I will erase your memory. If they do...Well, we will see where that goes."He says, pulling a lever.

The floor opens. I drop down into a cylinder tank. Around me were tanks with others looking like me. Just with different features. Within seconds my tank is broken. I fall out and look up to see someone looking like Pente standing there, punching the glass.

"Found him!"He cheers

"How did you know that one was him?"Jasper asks

"He has the same scent, just muffled by water. Plus it was only logical that the mean man would try to change his appearance but it is genetically impossible to do that without changing his species or scent. So, the most that was probably done was that a recessive gene's trait replaced the dominant one. Or two. He smells like muffies, Papa, paints, and kindness."He replies

"He has freckles and color-less eyes.....He is wearing the ring....."Jasper says

I see the people in the other tanks turn to dust.

"Where did you learn those things lil bro?"Jasper asks

"From Suave! He taught me things while you leave to s-cool! For example, it is impossible to completely disguise or hide a scent! Any method would just simply add or change the scent slightly! Kinda like putting chocolate chips in a muffin, it is not a normal muffin like before but is still a muffin! He says many vampires do not learn how to catch disguised scents, which can cause problems...So he taught me some of it. Which allowed me to find him! I tried to tell Reapa but he would not listen! He wasn't holding my hand so I wasn't going to miss that chance to get him home!"Pente says, helping me up
