"No I'm pretty sure that this goes here!" The adult male said.

They have been fighting for hours, the blueprints for this thing where impossible to read so they only had the images to help them.

"You're an idiot if you think think that. It clearly goes over here!" The teen girl said.

"No that would be stupid!" The adult said

"No you're stupid!" The teen stated.

"Come on guys, we don't have to fight about this." The child said.

He didn't like it when his friends were fighting even though they do it all the time.

"This is my quest so I am the one who should call the SHOTS!"The teen yelled.

"Quiet down PrInCeSs, someone might hear you!" The adult said in a mocking manner.

"We are over 1,000 feet underground. How would anyone hear us?" The teen princess asked while crossing her arms.

"Oh I don't know maybe someone who was going into his lab to see that there are trespassers!" A voice said that none of the three recognized

They all look up to see a skinny teenager with an alchemy ball in his hand

"Now state your names and purpose here or I will use this acid on you all!" The guy on the stairs said. He was really hoping he was intimidating enough so that he didn't have to throw the bath bomb that he claimed was acid.

The adult wasn't buying it. He knew when someone was nervous or lying and this was both.

But apparently the princess wasn't as good as he was.

"This is Yong, that's Hugo, And I am princess Nuru of the air kingdom, and we are here to finish the Seven trails!" Nuru answered.

"THE WHAT!" Varian said while dropping the bath bomb.

The three looked away from it not wanting to see a man burn alive because of acid.

And then they looked at the young alchemist to there surprise ( except Hugo's) he was unharmed and covered in bubbles.

"Hehe yeah I probably shouldn't carry around bath bombs!" VARIAN muttered to himself.

He ran down the stairs and when he got to the bottom he asked, "the seven trails? As in the one that lord demanitus designed?" VARIAN asked. He was not concerned anymore about these people sneaking into his lab and was very excited to hear that these people were doing the seven trails!

"Uh yeah, how do you know about it hair stripe?" Hugo asked in his usual snotty tone. He didn't trust this kid. He's too weird to not be faking.

"Oh sorry where are my manners, I'm VARIAN, and I just love the legends about lord demanitus! I've heard them all!" VARIAN said.

"Well that's great just great kid, now how about you go run back up those stairs and go home before your mother finds out that you're gone." Hugo said like he was talking to a 5 year old. Nuru and yong of course glared at him but he didn't care. He didn't want another child around when 1: they didn't need any more help! And 2: this kid was way too unexperienced it! He was going to get himself hurt one way or another and he didn't want to be the cause of it.

"Hey First of all, I'm not a kid you know I'm 14!" VARIAN said defensively

*__________*

Cough cough 16 cough

*__________*

"And second, my mom has been dead for years I don't even remember her. And third this is my lab!" VARIAN said glaring at Hugo.

"He's right Hugo, he is the only person that actually knows his way around!" Nuru said looking at Hugo.

She turned to VARIAN and asked. "Can we use your lab to finish the trails?" She was very much hoping he would say yes.

"On one condition, I'll help you guys in anyway I can, deal?" VARIAN said. He had always wanted to be a part of the trails and here was his chance. "Deal." Nuru said while shaking his hand.

"So when do I start?" VARIAN asked with a smirk on his face

'Hopefully never' Hugo thought but didn't say.

Nuru Smiled And said "immediately!"

————————————————-

They haven't seen VARIAN for a while, the last thing they knew is VARIAN woke up that morning and went home. That was a week ago. VARIAN usually would have gotten into some kind of trouble by now.

"Don't worry about him blondie, he's probably just distracted by Hector and work he's forgotten to visit." EUGENE said hoping to cheer up his girlfriend.

"I know, I know, I shouldn't be worried about about him, but you know me, if there my friend I'm going to worry about strange behavior." Rapunzel said.

She knows she's probably overreacting but this was VARIAN, ever since he lost his memory he was in the castle 2-3 days a week, when he wasn't staying for a week because of the village, and they didn't see him all week so yes, she was Worried.

Then Nigel walked into the room.

"Your majesty, Quirin of old Corona is requesting to see you, so we put him in the library." Nigel said with his FAKE accent.

"Oh see blondie there's his dad, I'm sure he's ok because if he wasn't the entire brotherhood would be here." EUGENE said as they made there way to the library.

When they got to the library Quirin was standing there.

"Good morning, your highness." Quirin said.

"Oh please it's just Rapunzel!" Rapunzel said in the usual way she says that in.

"So Quirin, What brings you here." EUGENE said.

"I'm here to pick up my son, if that's alright." Quirin said.

Quirin was kind of confused when they walked in there without his son but he decided not to say anything about it.

"WHAT?? I-I THOUGHT HE WAS AT HOME!" Rapunzel said now even more worried then before.

"Your majesty, I haven't seen my son in a week!" Quirin said now he was worried too!

"So no one has seen him in a entire week?" Rapunzel said still very much worried.

"I'll start having the guards look for him, he wouldn't have left on his own, there has to be a reasonable explanation of this!" EUGENE said as he left the room

————————————————

In the week they knew VARIAN they have became good friends with him.

Of course he wasn't normal to anyone's imagination but he was very fun!

He would talk about all the stuff that he knew about demanitus with yong.

Help nuru learn demanitus's ancient translation.

But there was one person that no matter how hard he tried he couldn't become close to, Hugo.

Hugo seemed not to like people in high places.

And VARIAN's friends and family were all in high places.

But they didn't fight about it, mostly because VARIAN was the one who was stopping him and nuru from fighting but Hugo didn't care about anything that VARIAN had to say. (Nuru thinks it's because he's Jealous of VARIAN but she wouldn't tell Hugo that)

But the good news was the device was finished.

They all turned it on and then a portal opened up.

"Ok Nuru if your going to go into that portal you might want to change your clothes." VARIAN said as he was looking at the blue prints.

"Why?" The princess asked all confused.

"Because it says here "because I needed to keep this library safe from Zhan Tiri all magic that enters here will be destroyed!" And I'm pretty sure that means your dress as well." VARIAN said. Nuru changed her clothes behind the stairs to a normal outfit she had brought.

After they removed anything magical for there person, they all entered the library.

VARIAN was the last one to enter, but the second he did he doubled over in sudden pain

"VARIAN!" Nuru And yong yelled after they heard the screaming of there friend.

But VARIAN couldn't hear or see anyone all he could see was bad memories returning to his mind.

His betrayal, his father in amber, that year in prison, the days that he turned 15 and 16, all of it

He regained his memory.

*____________*

Oh no!

VARIAN has remembered everything! 

What will he do?
