Chapter 27 - Samples

Gabe and Trevor returned to 'The Home' to come face to face with an entire police squad and Commander Matthew. Fred walked over to Gabe and Trevor to inform them about the latest news on Prince Harvey.

"A few days ago, a cell from Prince Harvey was found near the portal to Earth."

"That's why we're here." Commander Matthew interrupted. " We had suspicions that one of you boys must have come into contact with the prince. Mind if we do a quick search on you two? We might be able to get a better chance to track the prince down."

"And soon," Sir. March came materializing into the room before them. The poor King is worried."

A police officer came walking towards Gabe and Trevor and instructed them to perform a series of movements. Trevor stiffened as another police officer came over with a series of different equipment.

To be honest, the equipment does look very menacing. Noticing this, Fred added, "Don't worry, I promise that you wouldn't even feel anything."

"I'll go first and I'll show you that there's totally nothing to be afraid of," Gabe said confidently as he strode forward puffing his chest out.

He spat into the test tube, did a blood, skin cell, swab test, etc. He gagged so hard at the swab test.

"That smells disgusting!" Gabe screamed out.

"We told you not to inhale it," the officer performing the tests said.

Trevor was fidgeting at the sight of the tests. Fred put an arm around his shoulder trying to comfort him. "It looks terrifying," Trevor said. Gabe was currently throwing up. The smell had gotten the better of him.

The officer was sighing. "I told him to hold up his breath." The other officers were running some of their samples from Gabe through their equipment. The other samples such as the skin cells sample was given to an officer with hugely thick glasses named Matt.

Matt had a micro vision. This means he could see things like an electro-microscope. The only problem is that he can only see things zoomed in. This means that he has to wear thick glasses to adjust his vision.

Gabe came back a moment later very pale and nauseous looking. "No more tests!" he blurted out before collapsing to the ground.

Trevor's eyes went wide and his heart began to pace.

"He's just being dramatic," Commander Matthew assured Trevor. "To prove it to you, I'll do one right now to show you that there's nothing to be afraid of."

The commander sat down in front of an officer motioning him to do one of the tests on him. The officer obeyed and began preparing the equipment. The officer dipped a cotton bud into a goopy transparent looking solution. Then instructed the commander to hold up his breath as he inserted the cotton bud into his nose.

"Ok, good, hold it up for 15 seconds. It'll be very quick," the officer said. But before the officer could wipe off all the remaining goopy residue from the commander's nose, he began to gag and began to throw up himself too.

"It smells like rotten, decaying poop!" The commander screamed after he finished throwing up.

"Sir, you were supposed to hold it up for 15 seconds." The officer said in his defence.

"I did, so I resumed breathing on the 15 seconds."

"No sir, you have to breathe after the 15 seconds when all the solution has been wiped off."

"I'll get start cleaning up then," Fred interjected. The room now reeked of vomit.

"I think we'll have to continue this test another time. When this place no longer reeks," Sir. March added while pinching his nose tight.

"There'll be no need," Matt interrupted holding up the sample in triumph. "I found a trace of the prince. The boy has indeed been in contact with the prince."

Trevor let out a sigh of relief.

"You're lucky today, boy," Sir. March said to Trevor smiling. "I guess we'll have to continue our search for the prince. Hopefully, he hasn't gone far. Remember to notify us immediately if you ever see the young prince."

"How does he look like exactly?" Trevor asked.

"Right, right, how could I forget," Sir. March said. He then handed Trevor a small picture of the prince.

Prince Harvey lives a very private life. The King controls the people that the young prince meets and the places he goes. So not many people have ever seen what Prince Harvey has ever looked like.

Trevor clutched the picture tightly, trembling in his hands.

"Consider yourself lucky, boy, not many people know how he looks like. Do me a solid and keep that photo confidential, okay?" Sir. March smiled and motioned for everyone in the house to return home. One by one all the officers began to dematerialize and vanish into thin air.

Prince Harvey had fine soft facial features. He had dark coloured hair with purple-ish coloured eyes. He had freckles all over his youthful face. The prince had his head tilted downwards and his eyes facing up towards the camera. His mouth curved into the most devious and playful smile that Trevor knew all too well. A smile that felt so familiar to him that he could never forget.
