A/N: Alright! Get ready for some gender bending! ;)
Gajeel's POV
"Gajeel, it's time to go. You need to get to the guild early so that you can get the best job," said Lily's voice. I cracked one eye open and looked at him. I was still mostly asleep, so I shut it again.
"Gajeel, don't go to sleep again," he said. As I started to wake up, I realized that his voice sounded strange. I eased myself upright and shook my head to ease off my sleep. I cracked my eyes open and stared at Lily. There were a few seconds of silence before we pointed at each other and said at the same time, "Look down!"
I raised a pierced eyebrow and looked down, "What the f—"
"We're female!" yelled Lily.
"Thanks for stating the obvious!" I said, standing up. I looked at myself in the mirror that hung on the wall and kept staring for a long time. I reached up and touched my face. My cheeks were smooth and there was no hint of morning stubble. My hair was still long and dark, but now it was strangely silky. My eyelashes had grown out. Worst of all was…
"Don't look!" shouted Lily.
"Why not? It's my body!" I replied angrily.
"No, it's not! We're male! Something must have happened yesterday that caused this. We need to get to the guild and get this situation straightened out," said Lily sternly. At least…it would have been stern if I weren't grinning at his feminine voice.
"Stop smiling," he growled.
I shook of the laughter and stared at him seriously, "I don't wanna go to the guild like this, though."
"Suck it up," was all he said before he flitted out the door.
I groaned and followed after him, resisting the urge to look down my own shirt.
Levy's POV
"Wow! This is fascinating! I wonder what kind of spell did this," I said, staring at myself. I lifted my shirt and saw well-defined stomach lines. I lifted my arms and stretched them above my head. I turned every which way and then stared at myself in the mirror. I couldn't help but notice that I was pretty good-looking.
"Well, I better head to the guild. As much fun as this was, I need to break this spell. I don't think I've read about a spell like this before…it's probably very old…" I said, stroking my chin. My skin felt rough and my jawline was sharp. I dropped my hand. A thought occurred to me: oh, god…Gajeel is going to see me like this! I felt my face heat up and stopped in my tracks. What am I going to do? This is so embarrassing!
Gray's POV
"What the hell?!" I shouted. At first I'd thought it was a dream—and a really weird one at that—but after pinching myself in some newfound places I realized that it wasn't. I'd gone to sleep without a shirt on last night, so I could see my everything. I stood up, my chest bouncing, and noticed that my chest felt really heavy. I groaned and straightened my back, "This sucks!"
I pulled on a shirt and my jacket and caught myself in the mirror. I gasped and realized that my hair had grown too. It was about at my shoulders. "Wonderful," I mumbled sarcastically.
Juvia's POV
I panicked for a moment and then calmed down. This wasn't that big of a deal. Worse has happened to me…not anything that I could think of off of the top of my head…but I'm sure there was something. I perked up as an idea came into my head, "Maybe Gray will like this more!"
I ran out the door, headed for Fairy Tail.
Erza's POV
I shook of my exhaustion and sat upright. My body felt strangely heavy as I rolled out of my bed. I rubbed my eyes and barely noticed that my hands felt a bit larger than usual. I stared at them, blinking hard. I stood up and stumbled over to my mirror. I gasped when I saw my reflection. There was one thing that was horribly obvious: I was a man. My hair was short and my chest was gone. I requipped into normal clothing and pulled up my shirt. Only abs…I thought to myself.
Wait…that's not that bad. Men are stronger than women…it's a scientific fact. I smiled to myself, staring at my handsome face, "Alright, let's see how strong I've become."
Lucy's POV
"Oh my GOD! My cute face is gone!" I screamed. What am I going to do? I can't go outside like this!" I shouted. I clapped a hand over my mouth as Natsu started to shift in his sleep. Yeah, he'd slept at my place again last night. Let's just say I didn't sleep much last night. Wait, don't be stupid, Lucy! Now's not the time to think about that!
I ran over to Natsu to try and put a hand over his eyes as he sat up. Unfortunately, I slammed my knee on my bed frame and then tripped on some loose sheets. I rocketed into Natsu's lap. I let out an alarmingly manly scream. I can't let him see me like this!
I reached up and covered his eyes with my hand, (which was also manly) I bit down the pain that was coursing through my shin from where I'd hit it on the bed frame. "Lucy? What are you doing?" he asked, trying to pull my fingers away from his face. That was when I realized something, "Natsu! You're a GIRL!"
"Since when?" he asked, finally pulling my hand away from his face. Our faces were inches apart. "I didn't know you were secretly a man," he mumbled, still a little sleepy. He looked down, "I didn't know I was secretly a woman."
Then his eyes went wide, "Lucy, you're a man! And I'm a woman!"
I nodded, "I know!"
"You know?!"
"Yeah, I know!"
"You know!"
"This is horrible!"
"This is awesome!" I was about to say, "I know" but then stopped myself, staring at him, "What do you mean it's awesome?" He shot up and stood over me, (me who was still sprawled on the floor).
"I'm so hot!" he said proudly.
"Not as hot as I was!" I cried. I covered my face with my hands and curled up into a ball on my floor.
"Natsu!" said a voice.
"Happy!" he called back. They stared at each other for a few moments and then pointed at each other, laughing hysterically. Apparently Happy was female too.
"It's not funny! I don't want to be a man!" I whimpered, covering my face so that Natsu wouldn't see. He knelt down beside me and placed and strangely gentle hand on my arm, "Luce…"
I didn't uncover my face. This was so embarrassing! I was a man! "Luce," Natsu repeated. He gently pulled my hands away from my face. I slowly sat upright, tears leaking from the corners of my eyes.
"Don't cry, Luce. We'll sort this out. We always do. Remember when you became invisible? It all ended well then, too. It'll be alright," he said gently. He smiled as me, his long, salmon hair falling over one eye. I wiped the tears from my face and nodded. Has Natsu become more considerate or is it just me?
That was when he did something that surprised me. He wrapped his arms around me tightly and hugged me. At first I went rigid, his—oh god—boobs pressing against my chest, but then I sunk into it. This was just Natsu. There was no need to worry. I wrapped my arms around him. His waist was so small. Is this what it's like for a guy to hug a girl? He pulled away and stared at me. I started to shift under his gaze, but then stared back. My eyes glanced down to his chest for a moment.
Natsu's POV
"Oi! What are you staring at?" I asked.
Lucy blushed, "Nothing!" She turned away from me and muttered to herself, "Stop it, Lucy! You are so not a pervert!"
I stood up and patted the dirt off of my pants, "Well, time to go."
"Go where?" she asked, standing up beside me. I looked up at her, "Jeez, you're tall."
"I don't want to be!" she whined.
"Well, anyways…we need to get to the guild. They'll figure this out," I said, walking to her door and pulling it open. I looked back at her and she stared at me. "You think I'm going to the guild wearing this? And what about you?!" she said. I looked down and realized that my entire chest was showing. I covered it self-consciously and then wondered why I had.
"Natsu's almost as bad as Gray now," said Happy, floating by.
"Oh, yeah…do you think we're the only ones that this happened to?" Lucy asked, rummaging through her drawers.
"How should I know?" I asked, walking over to join her. She lifted up a navy T-shirt and gave it to me. I took it and then started to pull off my clothes. She yelped and turned away immediately. "Calm down, Luce. It's not like you've never seen a naked girl's body before," I said.
"But it's your naked body!" she cried, still not looking at me. I pulled the shirt over my head, "Alright, I'm dressed…but I don't see why that would matter."
"Here," I said, offering her my shirt. She turned around and stared at it, "You expect me to wear something that revealing?"
"It's not revealing…for a man," I said, shrugging. She grumbled and took the shirt. She ripped off her pink pajama shirt and threw it onto her bed. I stared at her. "Don't look at me!" she said, trying to cover herself.
"Damn, Luce…you're ripped," I said, crossing my arms over my own busty chest.
"This is so weird," she said, covering her face, which was turning bright red. I wanted to reach forward and touch her, but I held my hand back. I felt my own face turn red, too. Unfortunately, before I could look away, she noticed it.
"OH my GOD! Natsu! Were you thinking about something perverted?!" she demanded, pulling the shirt I'd given her on.
"No!" I insisted, but it only made my face turn red.
"You were thinking that I was attractive, weren't you? Are you gay?" she asked. Her voice wasn't judgmental...just curious.
"No! I wasn't thinking any of that!" I said. I tried to push her away, but she caught my hands easily.
I frowned and she smiled, "I'm stronger than you now."
"No!" I yelled, "Why has this happened to me!?" I collapsed to my hands and knees and mumbled to myself, "Lucy is…Lucy is stronger that me now! I'm weak…I'm nothing!"
She patted my head to try and comfort me, "I'll take that as an insult."
"Don't pat me!" I said, slapping her hand away. She sighed and grabbed me. She slung me over her shoulder easily and headed for the door. "Put me down!" I yelled, pounding on her back. She grabbed her keys on the way out.
After a while of walking towards the guild, I finally gave up in trying to break free of her grasp. If I used my magic I'd easily be able to break free…but I didn't want to actually hurt Lucy.
When we finally arrived at the guildhall, I was still slung over her shoulder. She kicked the door open and yelled, "We've got a probl—" Shock cut her voice off.
"What is it?" I asked because I was still facing towards the street. The put me down gently and I turned to see the guildhall. Every. Single. Guild. Member. Was. The. Opposite. Gender. My mouth dropped open.
"Well…that answers the question about whether we were the only ones," Lucy said, crossing her arms over her muscly chest.
I looked away from her and nodded. Then I had an idea. Apparently Lucy had the same idea because we said in unison, "Oh, man. We need to find Gray and Erza!" We high fived each other and went to find them.
