Magus Bazaar

While Professor Rotwood is wondering what to do with his newly-acquired evidence, Jake is taking Rose to the Magus Bazaar so she gets more acquainted with the local magical creatures. With him are Fu, Lao Shi, Sun and Haley. Once they are the last ones in the train, Rose tries to leave but Jake places a hand on her shoulder, signaling for her to stay.

"But this is the last stop." Rose says.

"For humans who don't know about the magical world, yes." Jake replies. "For us, no."

The conductor reveals himself to be a magical creature, shocking Rose just like he did to Jake. Then they are taken to the Magus Bazaar. "I thought it'd be like entering Diagon Alley." Rose comments.

"Well, I wasn't sure about what to expect." Jake replies.

"Jake, what was it like when you first came here?" Rose asks out of mild curiosity.

"Remember when I asked you to go to a dance with me and you refused because you had already agreed to go with Brad?" Jake asks in reply.

"Biggest mistake of the non-Huntsclan aspect of my life." Rose replies, bitterness evident.

"Back then, I told you I already had a date for the dance." Jake adds.

"And you did." Rose sadly replies. "And I thinking you made it up because I was already taken."

"I did." Jake explains. "Fu brought me here to meet some girls I'd be interested."

"Is Jasmine from the Magical World?" Rose asks, mildly shocked.

"She's a nix." Jake explains.

"And you took her to a human party?" Rose asks, completely shocked. "No wonder the original Light Dragon wouldn't trust you with the extra power."

"I was just desperate for a normal-looking girl who didn't keep making predictions every moment and my dragon breath was particularly nasty when I asked the girls at school." Jake sadly explains.

"Oh, yeah. The original Light Dragon informed me about the dragon breath." Rose replies.

"Look, there's Veronica." Jake points out. Upon looking at Veronica, Rose can't help but feel jealous. "Hi, Veronica."

"Hi, Jake. Wanna buy some potion ingredients?" Veronica asks.

"Nah, just showing Rose around." Jake replies.

"Oh, yeah, the Magical Week Magazine released a special edition about the Light Dragon being revealed." Veronica comments as she shows a magazine with a headline saying "DRAGONSLAYER BECOMES THE LIGHT DRAGON".

"How did they learn so fast?" Jake asks, surprised.

"The Dragon Council wanted the Magical World to learn as soon as possible." Veronica explains.

"So, which kind of magical creature are you?" Rose asks, secretly hoping it's one Jake may never fall in love with.

"A spider." Veronica explains as she shows her spider-like lower body, surprising Rose. Seeing Jake's disgusted face, Rose is relieved of her earlier insecurities.

"Veronica, I'm showing Rose around." Jake says. "What do you suggest we should see now?"

"I suggest the Scoop." Veronica replies.

"Scoop? Is it a tabloid magazine?" Rose asks.

"An Ice Cream Parlor." Jake explains. "Thanks for the tip, Veronica."

"You're welcome."

Jake and Rose then enter the Scoop, where they suddenly draw the attention from the other patrons. "The AmDrag is quite popular around here."

"Look!" A pixie exclaims. "It's the Light Dragon!"

"You were saying?" Rose maliciously asks. Jake sulks. Some people then take pictures of her. Sam Sparks approaches her. "Please a photo of yourself with your boyfriend." He asks and then complies.

Rose and Jake take a seat and two fairies then offer her a roast turkey. "Light Dragon, this is our way to say welcome to the Magical World." One of them says.

"Thank you." Rose replies and then the fairies leave. "Jake, was it something like that when you were first proclaimed the American Dragon?"

"Well…"

Flashback begins

"This little boy the American Dragon?" A troll asks. "He doesn't look like much."

"Oh, yeah?" Jake cockily asks. "Look at this. DRAGON UP!"

The magical crowd stares at him. Speechless.

"Can resist the amazing AmDrag, huh?" Jake asks with a smile.

"Kid." Fu draws Jake's attention. "Look at your lower parts." Jake then notices his lower half is still human minus his short pants. "Aw, man."

Flashback ends.

"Not exactly." He replies. They then enjoy their lunch together.

After they finish, they hear a commotion from outside. "What's going on?" Jake asks.

"A giant is attacking." Somebody explains.

"Let's stop him, Jake." Rose quickly says.

"Rose, the Light Dragon might be needed to stop the Dark One but the AmDrag doesn't need help against a giant."

Jake is soon proven wrong when the giant takes him down. Rose then takes Light Dragon form and the giant charges against her. She easily trips him down. The giant then grabs her but she flies, taking him with her. After the giant is taken away, the magical community applauds her but all she thinks is about Jake and how he is.

"Jake, are you alright?" Rose asks.

"Take… me… to… Gramps." Jake pants in reply.
