She hadn't thought the attack was strong enough to do what it did but it obviously was and that was why she was saying goodbye to her best friends. After Natsu had been trapped under a pile of rocks to big to shift she and Happy had tried to fight the guy but in the end it was for naught. She was dying, she could feel her breath shorten and her chest tighten as she smiled at her nakama for the last time. Her last thought was of her spirits, 'hopefully they will find another more worthy friend.'

Lily and James looked upon the newest addition to their family and wondered at the dual colored hair. The brown obviously coming from James' side of the family but the sunshine yellow-blond wasn't something you see everyday. In the end they decided it was better not to question the mysteriousness that was genetics and promptly named their little boy after Lily's grandfather. So little Harry James Potter was born July 31, 1980.

When she opened her eyes to see two very large heads looking at her, her first response was normal, she cried. She cried until the red head picked her up and that was when she noticed something very, very wrong. She was tiny really, really tiny. Her thoughts going around in circles and rushing into walls as they didn't help her make sense of the WHY of the situation.
In the end she merely decided to take a sit back watch and learn attitude to her newest problem. After sometime, not sure how much as she wasn't able to keep track of the days or hours, she realized that she wasn't just small she was a baby. Then she received a really large shock as she discovered that she shouldn't call her self a she anymore. That day she cried, loudly, and without remorse for her new parents who tried to calm her down.
As the months passed she eventually progressed from thinking of herself as a girl to referring to herself as a boy. It was mostly because he couldn't change his gender to that of his previous state and he had always wondered what it was like to be a boy. Not that changing bodies with Gray was anything like being born a boy. In fact it was so different from that day that he guessed it had something to do with her being born a him and not just exchanging bodies for the day.
As his first birthday passed he was very thankful for his new parents being mages even if he couldn't understand the magic they were using. At times it reminded him of Maker magic and at other time it was distinctly like the Requip magic that Erza used. For the next three months he was very dedicated to his perusal of finding out what kind of magic his parents used. It was only three most of dedication because at the end of the third month they were attacked.

Waking up in the dark dingy cupboard after five years of doing to same thing wasn't as frightening as it had been that very first night. When he had opened his eyes to the darkness after being taken from the ruble of his home to be poked and prodded by a stern looking mage who wielded a stick (a wand, perhaps?) the woman had pronounced him healthy and then the giant, for he had to be, had taken him for a ride which had been very cold to begin and had gradually warmed up.
His next memory was of a woman screeching for vermin at least that was what it had sounded like when the woman said the word Vernon. Somehow these people had been convinced to take him in and here he was five years later having learned that the woman was supposed to be his maternal aunt. He however was not convinced that this banshee like horse figure was in anyway related to him after all she had given birth to a small non-human that wasn't really all that small and looked very much like a pig with a straw yellow wig.
After making breakfast for his 'family' having eaten his whilst he had been cooking, an agreement that had come at a price, he began to pack for his next foray into the library. It had been an accidental find but a most welcome one after he had learned that he had not been reborn into the world he knew. This world in fact bore no resemblence to his old one save for the fact that it had magic in the very air. Though it seemed very few could feel it let alone wield its power.
When he had found out about the myths this world had he was perplexed because he could distinctly remember his parents and the healer using magic to entertain him. After a while he had merely decided to not get to caught up in the myths and looked more and more at the history of the country to which he had been born.
Some moments of its history was cruel and others were slightly funny but they helped him to understand this new place and its people.

For four years they had been saddled with the boy and now he would be starting school and if he put as much effort into that as he did with everything else he would outshine her beloved boy. So Petunia decided to make a deal with the little freak one which would likely benefit both of them.
"Boy, come here." she commanded and began her little plot when he was seated across from her. "Now in a week you should be starting at the local school with Dudley, however I have a proposal for you. Instead of going with Dudley tomorrow I will take you for an evaluation test for a scholarship program for the Keller Academy. It's a private boarding school that turns out the most doctors and lawyers."
She let him think for a few minutes before demanding an answer.
"Okay."

A/n: Alright here's the thing I did this on a whim and never intended to finish it but I thought someone would be inspired by this and make their own version. I had a thought to how I might have finished it, Lucy going to Hogwarts as Harry and finding her keys again but before finding them she would practice the things her friends could do eventually becoming some weird dragon slayer/ice make/requip/celestial mage combo. Not super powered but more powerful then she was in Fiore.
So if your inspired and decide to make your own please let me know I would love to read it, and good luck.
