Chapter 7

   When we got to Mr. Fangs house, we gasped. It was more like a estate rather than a house. There was a huge front and back yard and though the black fence we could see a pool. The house was at least three stories not counting the garage and room above it. Shu was the only one not fazed and quickly looked at us.
"I can't go with you because I'm from a different guild and because I'm supposed to be doing a different job now," he said.
   "Wait," Yui said slowly, "what guild?"
   "Lamia Scale," he said and Yuki looked at him.
   "Really now?" Yui said. "May I see-" before she could finish, Shu pulled his shirt up just enough so we could see a silver marking on his chest. It looked like a mermaid that had a small gap between the tail and body.
   "I really need to go now," he said, "so see you around." He started running down the sidewalk back to the train station.
   "Let's get started," Hayato said, pressing the doorbell. We could hear the ring of it throughout the house and a few moments later a young woman came to to door. She had shackles attached to her wrists, but they were broken. She wore a black maid dress with a white apron over it.
"Are Fairy Tail guild members?" she asked politely.
"Yes we are," Yui said. "We're here for the job request."
   "Come in," she said and lead us into a long hallway. There were doors leading off the hallway, and we walked into the first on in the right. It was a spacious living room with a fireplace to the right and a two couches a few feet away from it. A huge rug was under them and a glass coffee table was in the middle of that. A older man was sitting in a chair with another older maiden was standing near him.
"Are you the Wizards who will find my lost grandson?" he asked in a raspy voice.
"Yui Tendo," Yui said, putting her hand on her chest. "That's Yuki Bronze, Hayato Kyragane, Ruby Cress, Silver Lysindia and River Goldenlove." The old man nodded.
"I'm Mr. Fangs," he said. "I haven't seen my grandson, Yukio, in so long, I can only remember his face by looking at pictures. Here's one now." He took the photo the maid next to him had and put it on the coffee table so we could see. It showed a small, pale kid only about 7 or 8 who was sitting on Mr. Fangs shoulders. He had bright blue eyes and scruffy, light brown hair. "He must be much older looking, now, since it's been 7 years."
   "We'll find him," Yuki said. "How bad can he possibly be?"
   "He's also the son of a demon," Mr. Fangs added. We blinked and then our jaws dropped.
   "WHAT?!?!" we all shouted.
   "My daughter became pregnant thanks to Satan," he said. "I didn't approve, but she didn't care. She gave birth to him and told me to take care of him with the last name Fuji. She then passed." Mr. Fang had a tear rolling down his face and his maid gave him a tissue.
   "I'm sorry," Yui said. "We'll be sure to find him."
   "Thank you," he said and the maid who greeted us at the door walked us out. We went to the nearest sewer ladder in a small alley and climbed down. Yuki lit his fist and handed us a stick with a flame burning at the top. You could hear the soft tap, tap, tap of water falling from the huge pip.
   "It stinks!" River said.
   "It's a sewer," Yui said, not fazed. "This way," she said, leading us down to the left. After a few minutes of walking, we heard the sound of footsteps. Then the clinking of a sheath at the side of someone. We looked ahead and saw a teenage boy with messy, light brown hair and empty blue eyes. They gasped as they recognized the boy as Mr. Fangs grandson, Yukio Fuji.
"Wha... wha... what the heck?!" Yuki finally blurted.
"Anyone who enters must be exterminated," Yukio said, us sheathing the sword. His body then got engulfed by blue flame. He kept coming towards him and Yuki and Hayato cracked their knuckles.
"So he wants to fight, eh?" Hayato said, grinning mischievously and his left hand flat with his right fist on it.
"Well that what he'll get," Yuki said, lighting his fist with flames.
"Don't mess with the son of Satan," Yukio said, slicing his sword horizontally. A invisible sword came towards us as a whoosh of air. Hayato jumped, Yuki ducked and the rest of us flattened ourselves against the sewer wall.
"Fire Dragon Brilliant Flame!" Yuki shouted, releasing a huge ball of fire at him. Just as it was about to hit Yukio, Yui slashed it with her sword.
   "Fighting won't do us any good!" she said to Hayato and Yuki. Yukio scoffed and sheathed his sword, making his ears and fangs get shorter. Although his tail still remained, he turned around and started walking back towards the darkness up ahead.
   "Where are you going?" Yuki asked, still wanting to fight.
   "Somewhere from the people from above," he said. Yuki took a step forward, but Silver stopped him.
   "I've got this," she said and started following him.
   "What's the meaning of that?" he asked confused.
   "Leave it to her," River and I said together. So we waited.
   The first fifteen minutes, Yui was examining the pipes and River going down the middle while I watched Hayato and Yuki play cards. Yu was napping on Yuki's crisis crossed legs.
   Then after another fifteen minutes, footsteps could be heard coming from the depths of the pip. Silver and Yukio came back, but his eyes were brighter than before. He also looked a little more up than down.
  "I'm sorry about earlier," he said. "I don't know why, but I've been getting this weird feeling ever since I found out I was the spawn of Satan and came down here."
   "Probably because of the smell and the darkness," Yui said. We scurried up the ladder and all six of us gasped for fresh air. Yukio looked around, a huge smile spread across his face. Yui noticed it and smiled.
"I haven't been up here in ages," he said.
"Well, your grandfather has miss you," Silver said.
"He's still alive?" Yukio asked, looking at us. "I thought he had passed."
"Come on," Yuki said. "Would your family ever leave you alone?"
"Never," Yukio said.
"Then let's get going so you can see him," Yuki said.
"Aye, sir!" Yu agreed. We walked back to the estate and Yukio stopped at the front.
"This place has a my grandfathers aura to it," he said. "My grandfathers sweet and loving aura." A tear rolled down his face. "Let's go!" He ran to the door and put his hand on the door knob. All of us followed him as he opened the door.
"Back already?" Mr. Fangs voice said from the living room. Yukio walked slowly to the voice and stopped at the doorway.
"Grandfather!" He shouted, running over to the couch.
"Oh, my sweet young grandson, Yukio!" Mr. Fangs cried as the two of them reunited. We watched the happy moment and Mr. Fangs looked at us. "Your reward," he said to the maid. She took small bundles of money and handed one to each of us.
"Thanks so much, sir!" Yuki and Yu said together, looking at the money.
   "And the key," Mr. Fangs took a gold key from his pocket and held it out. "I presume one of you is a Celestial Wizard?"
   "I am," I said, walking closer to him.
   "Here is the maiden, Virgo," Mr. Fangs said, handing me the key.
   "Thank you," I said, hooking Virgo with the rest of my keys.
   "Grandfather?" Yukio asked, his face serious. Mr. Fangs looked up at him. "I've decided to use Satan's power for good. And to do that, I want to learn magic and join a guild and make lots of friends! Please, Grandfather. Let me chose my own path, now."
   "If that's what you wish," Mr. Fangs said. Yukio's face lit up. "But you have to join the guild I was in. Sabertooth."
   "That guild is second best in Foire," Yui said. "With Blue Pegasus not far behind, of course."
   "Then I'll join Sabertooth," Yukio said.
   "For you," Yuki started, "I would say Fire Magic would be a good place to start."
   "Thanks for the advice, Yuki," Yukio said. Yui looked at the clock and then at a train ticket she held.
   "OH MY GOD!!" she shouted, looking at the train ticket. "WE'RE GOING TO MISS OUT TRAIN!!!!!!!!" We all said quick goodbyes and we ran for the train station.
   But we didn't know someone was lurking around the corner, watching us. And we didn't know that person would make us see each other again very soon.
