Suave's Backstory - A Short Story

Chapter 1: Sneaking Out

A long time ago a fight broke out between vampires and non-vampires. The non-vampires feared that the vampires would kill them all so they attacked. All non-vampires were forced to fight in the war. This left many kids to become orphans because of their parents losing their lives in the war. Even though many non-vampires lost their lives, the vampires lost the war and the ville made a rule that any vampire and bat, vampire or not, would be killed immediately. The king vampire and his maids fled into a forest where they made a secret castle to live in where the ville would never find them.

Everything was going great. Fallacy, the king vampire, and one of his best maids had just had a child in which they named Jasper. But of course nothing is ever perfect. Calamimi, Fallacy’s fiancée, had grown terribly ill and died leaving Fallacy to fall into depression. Eventually a french artist named Encre took a stroll through the forest and it wasn’t long before he bumped into Fallacy who was hunting for food. Encre and Fallacy recognize each other as they had been good friends when they were kids. Fallacy had always had a crush on Encre since they were kids and it made him so happy to see them again. Encre and Fallacy decided to that they would get married as they both fell in love. Everything was back to being perfect.

*2 Years Later*

“What are we going to tell Lord Fallacy?! We lost his son!” A maid signed, panicking as they searched all over Jasper’s playroom for him. They saw that the window was wide open. They were freaking out as they thought about the punishment Fallacy would give them for losing Jasper. They panicked as they thought of the worst possible things.

“Well, he couldn’t have gotten far. He’s a two year old for goodness sakes! Come on let's search the forest and ville!” Another maid said as they hurried out of the play room. They put on unsuspecting clothing and hurried into the forest to start the search.

*In The Ville*

A very naive lil Jasper skipped through the ville. It was a good thing that it was almost night and no one except the town guard, Azure, and the vampire huntress, Eterna, were out. Oh, wait. Nevermind, that was the worst thing. Lucky lil Jasper had not run into them yet. Jasper just wanted to see the ville. His dad had alway told stories about how the ville was bad and that they should never go there but being the curious little two year old he was, he went anyway.

Eventually lil Jasper heard giggling coming from a alley and decided to investigate. They peeked in the alley and saw a little kid, no older than four, wearing ragged clothes and tossing a ball at a wall repeatedly. Jasper could tell that this kid was probably starving and they looked to be very ill. It looked like the little kid had been there for a while because there was a shelter in the corner of the alley made out of trash bags, slabs of wood, and some old fabric.

It was at that moment that Jasper had remembered that he had picked an apple from a tree in the forest to snack on. He pulled it out and walked into the alley to give the kid the apple but as soon as the kid saw the small vampire he tossed his ball and quickly crawled into his little trash tent to hide. Jasper tilted his head. His dad had told him that non-vampires feared vampires but he wasn’t scary. Jasper placed the apple in front of the tent and stepped back. In the blink of an eye the kid snached it up and ate it.

The kid crawled out of the tent and weakly stood up. “Tank you...” The kid said weakly. Jasper giggled and picked up the ball the kid was playing with. Jasper pointed at the kid and tilted his head. The kid tilted his head before he realized that Jasper was asking for his name. “Mah name Suave...you?” Suave asked but Jasper just stared at him. “No talk?” Suave asked as Jasper tossed the ball over to him.

Jasper shook his head up and down. Suave nodded and tossed the ball lightly over to Jasper and continued this process until two mysterious girls entered the alleyway after hearing the giggling. Jasper recognised them to be the two maids, Fibi and Gazelle, who were looking after him before he escaped. As the maids approached Jasper, Suave got scared and crawled into his tent to hide again.

“Thank goodness we found you Jasper.” Gazelle said as they picked Jasper up. Jasper turned his head and reached his hand out towards the tent that Suave was hiding in.

Fibi looked at the tent just as Suave peeked his head out. “Hey Gazelle, did you see that? There’s a kid in there.” Fibi signed as they pointed at the trash tent.

Gazelle sighed. “That child is of non of our concern. They are just another one of the peasant orphan children.” She said as she walked out of the alley way with Jasper. “You are so grounded. You know you are restricted from coming here but you still came. You could have gotten me and Fibi in huge trouble and worst, you could have been killed.” Gazelle said.

Fibi took one last look at the trash tent before they followed Gazelle back into the forest. They entered the castle only to be greeted by the angry face of Fallacy. “I went to go check on my son only to find that the window was open, you two were gone, and two ville disguises were gone.” He walked over to them. “I can put two and two together.” He growled as he took Jasper from them.

“We are so sorry Lord Fallacy! He just slipped away!” Fibi signed as they looked at the ground.

“I’m in no mood to yell. Just...don’t let it happen again or there will be severe consequences.” Fallacy said before he walked away with Jasper. Jasper frowned and sobbed as they realized that they may never get to help or see Suave again. No, they were determined to see and help Suave. They made a plan that every day during the time period when his dad would sleep he would escape and see Suave.
