Behind the bar was nothing but a brick wall, Metalicana was confused as to why Gildarts would bring him here. Gildarts walked up to the wall and started pressing on the bricks. Each one that he touched went into the wall.
After he finished, Gildarts stood back, and the wall practically disappeared, as if it folded itself up. Metalicana just looked dazzled, not knowing how to react to the new street of busy shoppers that was now in front of them.
"Welcome," Gildarts said, "to Love and Lucky Market."
He just smiled at Metalicana's surprised face. The two step through were the wall was, and after they walk through the wall returns back to normal.
Metalicana looked at all of the shops, selling cauldrons, exceeds, and there were even some boys looking through the window of a shop selling broomsticks.
"Wow, the new Chariot Two Hundred," Metalicana heard one of them say, "it's supposed to be the fastest model yet."
Gildarts just kept walking as if it were nothing, and in his cause, this would be completely normal. They walked to a large, white building with a dome shaped top that towered above the rest.
Gildarts pointed at the building and said, "That's Sylph Labyrinth."
There was a man in a green, gold, and silver uniform standing at the door who bowed as the two walked past. They entered a large room full of people.
To the sides were doors that employees were leading people through, in the back of the room was a long counter with workers sitting behind it. Gildarts walks up to one of the workers behind the counter that wasn't busy helping someone else.
"Good morning," Gildarts says, "We would like to get some money out Mr. Redfox's safe."
The worker looks up, "Do you have his key, sir."
"Yes," Gildarts goes through his cloak until he finds a tiny gold key and places it on the counter.
The worker takes it.
Gildarts adds one more thing to his request, "I also have a letter from Professor Makarov, about You-Know-What in vault 714."
He gives an envelope in to the worker, to which the worker proceeds to open up and read the contents inside.
"Alright," the worker says after finishing reading, "I'll send you down there."
The worker picks up a phone and says something in an unfamiliar language and hangs it up. The worker than grabs another key from a desk drawer and leads them into one of the many doors.
"What's the You-Know-What in 714?" Metalicana asked.
"I can't tell, it's secret Fairy Tail business," Gildarts said, "I'm sorry Metalicana."
They are left down a dark hallway, with only torches as their light source. It leads them to a track with a mine cart. The three of them climb in and the cart starts moving. It goes extremely fast, and it goes down a very confusing path.
The car starts to slow down, and comes to a complete stop at a vault with the number 405 on it. The worker gets out to unlock the vault and Metalicana can't believe what's inside. There are heaps of gold coins and colorful cash money.
"All of this is yours," Gildarts said smiling.
Gildarts gave Metalicana two pouches, one for gold coins and one for the cash versions. Gildarts had explained that most stores only take the cash version (jewels are what they were called apparently), but sometimes people take the coins as well so it is good to have both.
After Metalicana had filled up the pouches, the three people went back into the mine cart. The cart proceeded to take them deeper underground, it got a lot colder as well. When they got to vault 714 the worker went up to the door and placed the key that he grabbed from his desk earlier. When the key goes into the key hole the door somehow melts away.
There is only one thing in the vault, a small package. Metalicana almost thought that the vault was empty at first look. Gildarts grabbed the package and then the three left, with everything they need Gildarts and Metalicana went outside to see the other shops.
"We should probably get you some clothes first," Gildarts said, pointing at a shop that said Master Bob's on the front.
Gildarts wanted to get them something to eat so Metalicana went into the shop alone. Inside there was a man (that's what Metalicana thinks anyway) wearing a pink dress and lipstick, yet he still had some facial hair.
"Are you going to Fairy Tail," he said.
Metalicana nodded.
"Oh what a handsome young man you'll be. Now that wall on the left is full of the clothes that are recommended for first years, but you are able to wear anything in the store to school."
Metalicana gives another polite nod and walks over the wall that was mentioned before. The trip was successful in Metalicana's opinion except for a run in with a rude boy who was talking trash about Gildarts. He was talking about some sort of sport and something about houses in Fairy Tail. It really confused Metalicana more than anything. Thank goodness Master Bob was able to ring him up quickly, because Metalicana was glad to not have to talk to the boy. Metalicana must have really let the comments about Gildarts get to him.
"What's wrong kid," Gildarts asked.
"Nothing," Metalicana lied.
They stopped at a new store for parchment and quills (because apparently people still use those), Metalicana even got an ink that would change colors as he wrote. The store they went to for books had stacks all the way up to the ceiling. Metalicana really wanted a book of curses to use on Jose but Gildarts advised against it, Metalicana isn't allowed to use magic outside of Fairy Tail after all. He also couldn't get a golden cauldron because the list they had said pewter. They had almost finished buying everything on Metalicana's list.
"All that's left is your wand," Gildarts said, "Oh, and a birthday present for you."
"You don't have to do that," Metalicana said.
"Are you crazy, everyone deserves a present on their birthday, and I doubt that your aunt and uncle got you much."
After a few more minutes of back and forth it was decided that Gildarts would go get Metalicana a birthday present while Metalicana went to get a wand. The shop selling wands was empty, in the back was a counter. Behind the counter were row of boxes, that were covered in a slight layer of dust.
"Good afternoon," an old man behind the desk said, "I'm Yajima."
"Hello," Metalicana said awkwardly.
"Oh I see, I thought I would see you soon Metalicana Redfox," Mr. Yajima said, "You have your mother's eyes. It seems like just yesterday your parents came in here to pick out their wands. Well, sort of, it's the wand that chooses the wizard after all."
Yajima grabbed a box and opened it up reveling a wand. He gave the wand to Metalicana, who just held the wand doing nothing.
"Well, give it a wave," Yajima said.
He waved the wand a little when Mr. Yajima took the wand out of Metalicana's hand. He then went and grabbed another one for Metalicana to try. Metalicana just barely raised the wand up before the wand was taken from his hand again. Mr. Yajima gave him one more wand, and this time when he waved his wand there were sliver sparkles that came from the end of it.
"Interesting," Yajima said.
"What do mean?" Metalicana asked.
"I remember every wand I sell, and the phoenix whose feather is in your wand gave a second feather. It's interesting that this wand would choose you when it's brother gave you that scar," Yajima pointed towards Metalicana's arm when he said this.
This gave Metalicana chills and as he went to leave the shop Mr. Yajima said:
"We except great things from you, Mr. Redfox."
Gildarts was waiting outside, and in his arms looked what appeared to be a kitten with a crescent moon scar on its eye.
"I got you and exceed, it will be good for mail and stuff and he's pretty cute," Gildarts said.
The two went back down Love and Lucky Market, and when they reached the train that would send him back to his aunt and uncle Gildarts gave him a slip of paper.
"This is your ticket to Fairy Tail. If you have any problems just send me a letter with your new exceed, he'll know where to find me. See you soon, Metalicana," Gildarts said before Metalicana got on the train.
He looked out the window to wave goodbye, but Gildarts was already gone.
