"All the little gears in a clock, all the electricity running through a circuit, i hear it all"
the portal appeared outside a cave with stone steps going down into a stone chamber, like the ruins of an ancient castle that once stood mighty in this place or a great fort. either way, Simon only glanced at the portal behind him before he started to go down carefully down the steps
"My dad's one of the most intelligent guys in the world, and so am i"
Walking out of the portal, Miku is the last person before she close it. Wendy caught Simon's scent and notice the stone chamber, this scared Maiden of the Sky, "This place is giving me a creep," she said in fear as she shiver, Carla look at her partner, "There is nothing to scared about, we only just need to meet the Sorcerer and his Apprentice. This place is ancient," she calm her down. Miku place her feet against the stairs and follow Simon as her Lotus Staff vanish, "Don't worry, if it's scary, I will pretend it's a set from music video," she states with a smile, Wendy gave a goddess a weary smile, she follows them.
"All the little gears in a clock, all the electricity running through a circuit, i hear it all"
walking down to the chamber, in the center was a stone pedestal with a small round box with stars all around it "thats it ... thats the hat" Simon said as from the corner came an old man with a broom that walked towards them"i would greet you, warriors of light ... but you are not supposed to be here"
"My dad's one of the most intelligent guys in the world, and so am i"
Wendy, Carla and Miku sees a round box, Simon claim that's a hat. They look puzzled, before Wendy begin to speak, but she sees the old man. Carla wonder why he said that, but she won't back down, "Look, whoever you are, we just need to borrow a hat because there is a person name Talos, who murdered the Gods, both good and evil, like this goddess over here," she said to him and look at Miku, who gave him an idol wave at him. Carla paid her attention to him, "We don't want anymore trouble, once we get trap Talos, we will return the Hat back to you."
"All the little gears in a clock, all the electricity running through a circuit, i hear it all"
"i am aware of Talos, and the danger he poses ... should he continue he might go after those with great power other than the Gods, i fear for my master's sake"he said as Simon nodded "your the Sorcerer's apprentice?" he asked as the Apprentice bowed his head in acknowledgement "if you do fear for his safety, then will you let us borrow the hat?" he asked as the Apprentice put his broom to the side"i understand the Dark One is in the midst of your world ... the Sorcerer would fear the hat would end up in the hands of the Dark One or Mab, which is why he cast an enchantment over the hat, none who has succumbed to the darkness in their hearts may take or control the hat, so the matter of me allowing you to take the hat is not mine"he said then turned to the box"it is the Sorcerer's will"
"My dad's one of the most intelligent guys in the world, and so am i"
Girls look at the hat, yet Wendy seems surprise to find out the old man is actually Sorcerer's Apprentice. Wendy look at Apprentice, "That explains why you are protecting the Sorcerer's Hat," she comment as she look at the box. Miku look sympathy, "If Mavis-san hears this, she will probably get serious about Talos possible going after Sorcerer, then probably go after him to finish him off," she said as she imagine Mavis hears this and probably cast Fairy Law to destroy him. Carla look at Miku with a sweat drop, "Why are you talking about First Master and Founder of Fairy Tail?"
"All the little gears in a clock, all the electricity running through a circuit, i hear it all"
"Mavis? but i thought you didn't know of the Sorcerer"the Apprentice said in confusion as he looked at each of them but Simon shook his head but the Apprentice must have took no notice"and yet you speak of his s-""i am Simon Xanatos of Fairy Tail and from the future with a message from the Sorcerer before his demise: he gave myself and others from the future a task and that none shall no his identity in this time until he gives such reason otherwise!" he said with a look of authority as the Apprentice stood silent then reluctantly bowed his head"if it is my master's wish ... and if you have come to save him ... then i shall obey"he said as Simon looked at Carla and Wendy "one of you needs to get the hat so we can go, i can't and neither can Miku"
"My dad's one of the most intelligent guys in the world, and so am i"
Hearing Apprentice said about girls not knowing Mavis and almost said about "his s-". Wendy and Carla look at Apprentice puzzled, "Did he know First Master?" she thought. Carla look suspicious about Apprentice and seemly know Mavis, she will talk with Mavis later, but she recall earlier that Founder of Fairy Tail said she never met Sorcerer, only heard of him. Miku, in other hand, have no clue about it. When Simon ask both Wendy and Carla to hold a hat because he and Miku can't hold it, Goddess doesn't want to hold a magical hat since it could be dangerous. They look at each other, Carla cross her arms with a smile, "Wendy, you should hold a hat," she said to her. Wendy smiles at white exceed, "Okay," she respond as she set her down and approach a box and picks it up.
"All the little gears in a clock, all the electricity running through a circuit, i hear it all"
seeing that the box allowed Wendy to pick it up, the Apprentice nodded"it would seem you have a pure enough heart to not use the hat for ill intent ... but being able to possess it is one this, being able to open it is another, i wish you good luck"he said bowing his head to the four of them "we'll bring it back after we trap Talos" he said before turning towards Wendy, Carla and Miku "we better get back and try to locate him ... lets hope no one's been idiotic enough to try and fight him, but then again only an idiot would just run off without a plan and try to- ... oh i am such a moron! Miku would you mind contacting Lord Death and tell him to not put out a hit on Talos? oh and while your at it try to find that imbecile, Black-Star as well, no doubt he's the idiot in question"
"My dad's one of the most intelligent guys in the world, and so am i"
Wendy look at Apprentice and watch him bow, she held it. Girls look at Simon about the plan to locate Talos, however he told Miku for tell Shinigami not to put a hit on Talos and hold Black Star. Although, the goddess grew pale, she place her hand on her eyes to see Mitsuki facing Talos with Raijin's divine lightning. She look at them alerting, "A little problem, Mitsuki-chan found Black Star-san, he's injured, and she's facing Talos," she told them from what she see saw. Wendy and Carla widen their eyes when she mention Mitsuki, "Mitsuki-san!" she raise her voice in surprise, she haven't seen Mitsuki since her battle against Fox Demonic Statue. She quickly ask her, "What is she doing there?" she ask her. Miku shook her head, "I... I don't know, I think Japanese Gods have deep hatred towards Talos and wants him dead for murdering their kinds, entrusting both Mitsuki-san and Shinigami-sama to hunt him down. Maybe because of death of Japanese Gods cost of balance between life and death, sakura withering, intelligence to average, and wind and lightning. I try will convince Japanese Gods and Shinigami-sama that you guys have plan to stop him," she explains in panic, knowing this is real bad. Wendy spoken to the Goddess, "Please tell her to hold him off until we arrive to trap Talos, like Simon-san said, tell Lord Death not to put him on death list," she order her to stop Mitsuki for start the fight. Miku nod in approval and look at Simon as she signal him that she will do what she can, so she summon her lotus staff and plank on the floor to open the portal, "Good luck all of you, and may the heaven shines upon you," she said to them before she vanish to Death City without waiting for their reply. Wendy look at Simon, "I believe the queen, we better find Talos and fast before Lord Death will send more to kill him," she said to him, worry about Mitsuki and Shinigami's students safety.
"My mom is one of the strongest warriors in the world ..."
"you know for once, just once ... i really wish something went exactly as planned" Simon said in exasperation then ran up the stairs to the portal "i'd better contact Merle just in case" he said to Carla and Wendy before heading to the portal "i think with a little tinkering i might be able to redirect the pathways" he said before he reached to touch his guild mark but hesitated for a bit but then closed his eyes and touched it and caused it to glow. in a bright flash he stood there in his keyblade armor with a new keyblade"i supose i should mention, i've never tried this before and this is the first time i wore armor since ..." he said then looked down at his keyblade for a long time "Wendy ... i need you to hide when we get there and try to find a way to open the box, if Talos sees it before we're ready its all over" he said then raised his keyblade up and plunged it into the portal then turned it like unlocking something. a loud click was heard and dozens of images passed through the portal until it rested at Destiny Towns. as soon as it happened he sent a mental message to Merle before going though the portal
"... And my dad's one of the most intelligent guys ever known, I am both"
Wendy and Carla follow Simon, while holding a box, Sky Dragon Slayer listen to Simon, and nearly surprise about him using Keyblade Armor with new keyblade. When Simon told Wendy to hide from Talos sight, Carla look at him with arms cross, "Don't worry, Wendy will try her best to open a box and imprison Talos," she comment, Wendy nod with a smile, "I hope he won't find us with a unopen box," she reply and watch him go through after he walk through the portal. Wendy and Carla look at each other with a determine expression with a nod, then they head through the portal to Destiny Towns.
