A shape under the sheets moved and mumbled gibberish. It was a girl, as naked as the day when she was born, who lifted her upper body and yawned, stretching her arms until she opened her bronze eyes to the blaring sunlight. The silk sheets slide off her body, wrapping itself around her lower half.

Though her memories were muddied, there was a single thought that darted through her mind like a lightning rod; she felt abnormal. Is this the feeling that someone felt before a dilemma crashes into their life, or did she sleep on the wrong side of the bed?

There was no answer she could give herself, so she lifted herself from the bed and stretched her limbs once more until she felt the overnight tension released. The morning draft, coming from the opened window, sent chills down her bare back.

This was when she noticed her predicament.

Currently, there were two reasonable-sized mounts of skin jostling from the chest area. For others, this may not be vexing, rather thinking of it as a blessing, but for this one particular human, this was indeed alarming; because Gray acquired different parts that did not suit his fancy at all. Last night, Gray had a reasonable-sized tang and a pair between his legs, yet there was only a vacant space, and he never in his life had breasts either, unless if his mother kept him in the dark about it.

Gray squealed at the sight of herself in the reflection, sending the birds in the nearby trees into the sky, and scurried into the bathroom. Luckily the mirror hadn't shattered yet.

…

The guild mates kept a distance away from a certain member, who only seemed to know how to groan and sigh every other second. The only one that would approach him, other than an Exceed who seemed to have vanished that moment, was Cana.

She flopped herself into the chair across from him, and without an inch of grace, asked, "Finally lost your virginity?" This may or may not be her version of "What's wrong?" Therefore, it's an incorrect translation on our part.

There was a chorus of moans coming from behind her, and this only confused the boy moreso. He perked his head up and looked at her as though she changed appearance. "Why did you say?"

Cana sighed, gaining a glare from Macao; who should have probably approached the boy in the first place instead of allowing the foul-mouth twat to do so. Then she faked a concern face and started asking him all kinds of questions. "Are you having lady problems? Can't get it up? Ass bruised? First time didn't live up to your expectations? Or just tender that Lucy left your jackass behind?"

"What the hell?!" This was all that the boy could muster up; since half of those questions were nonsense to him.

Finally, Macao stepped in, he couldn't allow this tragedy go on any longer, and laid a hand on Cana's shoulder to tell her that was enough, that she could go back to her barrels. She only leaned the chair back and shrugged, yet she did not move. Like the others, she was a little keen to hear what was causing Natsu's obnoxious mood; even though she was making it worse by staying there.

"Natsu, did something happen?" The look that Macao gave Natsu was one that a grandfather would give to his young grandchild.

Natsu opened up, nodding. Now everyone was leaning in to hear this. "Oh, yeah. I got ripped off on my reward."

They fell from their chairs; even Cana did when she kicked the table upwards and she fell backwards. "ARE YOU SERIOUS?!" Like the whimpers from earlier, this was all in a complete chorus. This was only something that Natsu could do, even without meaning to.

Macao was the only one still standing, shaking his head and cursing those above. He didn't need this at all. "Did it matter THAT much?" For once, he was hoping that Natsu was only pulling on their legs to see their reactions.

But Natsu was completely serious, "Old Hag promised me that it was the greatest thing in the world, that I would be hunted down by bounty hunters for it."

"And?"

"It was a stupid wind-up toy."

Macao's shoulders fell and he could feel some of his hair losing its color. "Some people are cheap. We will deny all future requests from that p-"

"So it was a lady problem! I had it in the bag!" Cana lifted herself off of the ground and slammed her fist down at the broke piece of the table. She smirked right at Macao as though she actually affected the outcome at all.

Everyone could feel the strains forming between Cana and Macao. It was like a rivalry between the two.

"Guys!" Max placed himself between the two, "It's pointless now." Both of them were confused for a moment until they saw Natsu grinning like an idiot. Their goal was accomplished and they took a step back, but their eye contact between each other sent a different message. There will be a next time, and I'll win.

The sandy haired man shook his head in shame over the two 'adults'. "Come on, guys, light up."

A girl with pigtails stood in the corner of the bar, finding mindless tasks to keep herself busy, but she paid attention to the drama on the main floor. None of them really paid her much attention, as it was a slow day at the guild, and no one really wanted to do anything. She handed out drinks with a petite smile.

Now the guild was back to its normal rowdiness; it felt just like home. It was a sad fact that half of the guild was gone, but that doesn't mean that the guild should remain lifeless until they got back. It only meant that they had a better reason to act out; there were no rules or anything to worry about.

Natsu finally got up from his table and waltz over to the bar, leaning over it as he called out for a drink.

Lisanna, the girl with pigtails, spoke out in a singsong tone, "Of course, Naty-" Her mouth jerked shut so fast that she almost bit the tip of her tongue. Natsu glanced up at her, but she only looked away and examined the shapes of the bottles while pouring him a cup. When he was far away, she didn't feel this gravitational pull, yet it consumed her.

She did not feel like herself.

The girl turned around and pressed the cup forward, into Natsu's waiting hands. At that exact moment, the doors slammed open and sunlight from outside erupted into the mainhall, blinding all who was near, revealing a young woman who was likely on her period at the movement; because she was raging the moment that she walked into the guild.

Cana and Natsu rose up to meet her in the middle, because this newcomer appeared like she came for a fight. "Business?" Cana muttered through closed teeth.

The others stood up at well, arms crossed, and waited for an answer. Macao took his place between the stranger and Cana. "Welcome to Fairy Tail," he offered a stern greeting, "If you have a request, you can kindly speak with me in the back. If you have other business, then I'll assure you, the guild master is out, so you will have to come back at a later time."

The doors closed, taking away all of the light with it, and allowed them to see her soft features. She had high cheek bones, causing her lips to appear wider than normally. Her midnight-colored eyes were slanted; could it be because she was glaring or was that natural? Dark blue locks hung around her shoulders, and two strands of hair were covering her right eye. Below, she wore men's clothing that sagged against her muscular figure.

She took a deep breath, realizing her anger was misplaced, and responded, "I've been cursed."

Max, who was astonished from her appearance, took notice of that familiar necklace that glinted from the soft light within the room. Only Reedus seemed to notice Max's odd gesture.

The replacement guild master only nodded and waved her closer to him. "This is an important matter indeed, and I will see what can be done."

"Macao," the girl spoke out.

He raised his eyebrows, slightly confused by her awareness. She made it sound like the two knew each other, yet he did not have a single memory of her; or was she that one night stand that was filled with boozes and vomit? No, it couldn't be; she was far too young for a grampa like him, and unlike his other night lovers, she didn't confront him shamefully.

"It's me, Gray." Her voice seemed to crack when she said that.

Sake sprayed across the room from the sudden revelation. Natsu practically tripped over thin air and jerked upwards. "Not a chance in hell that you're Ice Stripper!"

"I just admitted it, Tabasco Idiot, I've been cursed! I've been turned into a girl!" She gestured to her new body with utmost spite.

Everyone started chattering to themselves over these matters. The pink haired jumped the distance between them and raised his finger at her. "There's no freakin' way!" He gritted his teeth, "Who the hell are you and why are you lying, Scumbag?!"

"I don't have to say it again, Flame Brain! Can't you allow one single thought across your mind before you forget?! I've answered your questions, truthfully; I mean, why the heck would I lie? I woke up this morning like this!" She waved her arms down at her figure, "I have no clue in hell what the fuck happened, but this is the result!"

Natsu was still in denial, while others were just as confused. The boy knew Gray well, and just having a girl show up and claiming to be his childhood rival was only grinding on Natsu's nerves. "If you're Gray, then tell me, what happened on Galuna Island?"

She knew exactly what he was talking about, and waved her hand about, "I was rash, okay? And you stopped it before anything could happen."

"What was it?"

"A death wish."

"Stop being vague!"

Macao placed his arm between the two, "Let's settle this once and for all. Girl, show us your guild mark."

She placed her hand on the end of her tank top and instantaneously blushed, "I can't."

"Why not?"

"It's on my breast, you freakin' perv."

It was now Macao's turn to redden; he stared at the ground and twirled his thumbs. "Alright… Cana, go check."

"Eh, fine by me," the brunette rose up and escorted Gray into the back. Moments later, the two reentered the room with Gray blushing harder than before. Cana nodded at Macao, "Cleared; no mistaken, it's a guild mark."

"You didn't have to fondle it," Gray mumbled under her breath.

"Just checkin' if those were the real deal as well."

Natsu was still protesting against it. "That just means that she's a guild member!"

"Oh, so you're Wendy-chan who somehow gotten cursed with an aging potion, changing the spot of your mark, and no reason at all, claiming to be Gray? Or are you Levy-san, who finally grew some and began pouncing around with a profane vocab, and somehow managed to dye your hair darker and move your guild mark?"

"Could be!" Natsu shouted; not ready yet to let this topic die down. But now it was oblivious that everyone was starting to believe this stranger over him, and he was out of any evidence against that claim now that she shown several features that were attributed to Gray.

Cana shook her head at him. "Only Ever has her guild mark there, and one thing for sure, this isn't Evergreen. Gray, use your magic or something, maybe which will get through his mind for once." It wasn't that Cana was against Natsu, but she saw herself that this girl was Gray, and the argument didn't seemed to lose its force; all she wanted now was to sit back down and drink, and maybe even probe Gray some more.

And the girl submitted. She brought her hands together and created a long spike out of clear ice. With a quick spiteful glance at Natsu, she shattered it with a simple touch and the pieces were sweep away with the wind.

He shook his head and headed back to the bar; sulking. Now Lisanna couldn't help it, and came adjacent to him, with a drink in her hand. There was no discussion between them as she slid the drink across and headed towards Max's table. She didn't even think she could talk to him while he was in this foul mood.

Macao went up to Gray and simply assumed, "Head to Porlyusica-san. She has dealt with curses before, maybe she can undo this."

And with that Gray nodded.

Hello everyone! I've been working on this story for months, and I'm currently editing all of the latter chapters, as well as writing the ending. Because of how close it was, I figured why not just start publishing it, since I have no doubts that I can get it completed with no troubles. At the moment, there should be six chapters (then again, I'm not the best when it comes to counting chapters).

Expect the following chapters on Sundays, around this time period (15 UTC).

Artwork was found on Nanashi's Tumblr (Nanashiart).

Thanks for reading! Please review, follow, fav, or anything!
