Chapter 3: The Twins
Back at the guildhall, everyone gathered around February, curious as to what happened to the fire mage in training. The main people on the front line were Fairy Tail's infamous transforming wizards, Mirajane, Elfman, and Lisanna Strauss. They examined February thoroughly.
"What happened to me?" asked February, who was still a butterfly. Mirajane just shook her head in awe.
The barmaid then turn towards the master. "I have never heard of anyone who has had two completely different types of magic." Mirajane then began to go over the information that she had gathered from Erza, Natsu, and February. She still couldn't figure it out.
All of a sudden, February felt strange again. She then began to grow and her wings shrank back into her body. Soon, she was back to her normal self. She let out a sigh of relief, happy to be herself again. But still, how did she transform?
"I found something!" A woman called from within the crowd. The voice belonged to none other than Levy, Fairy Tail's script mage and book worm. Her look could explain it all. It showed that February was going to be an interesting subject in the way of magic.
"What did you find?" asked Lucy, looking over her shoulder. Everyone's eyes turned towards the girls, their ears hungry to hear the explanation.
Levy picked up the book and walked over to February pointing to where the information lie. "It says here that the only magical beings besides wizards of full body take over are Nymphs. It seems that one of your parents was a forest nymph based on the animal that you turned into." the script mage explained.
"But what triggered it?" February asked. She was still confused beyond anything in Earthland.
"It must have happened when you killed the butterfly." Levy explained still thinking of an explanation. "When you hit the butterfly, it awakened the nymph part of you because you hit something in nature with your magic. If you hit another animal in the forest with your magic you would have changed into that but since you hit a butterfly, you can turn into it."
"So, if I hit something else can I also turn it that object of nature?" February pressed further.
Levy shook her head and removed her glasses. "You can only turn into a butterfly because nymphs were not powerful creatures. To escape hunters who were chasing them, they turned into animals to camouflage themselves from the attackers. Once they were far enough away from the hunters, their magic would wear off and they would turn back to normal, until the next attack."
"Cool, so if February is in a fight she can't win, she can just transform and retreat." said Natsu, as everything clicked in his head. Levy nodded in agreement.
"But why isn't my fire magic working? It seems it only works to cause disasters and not work at my whim." said the girl, thinking of more questions than the answers she was receiving.
"It could be possible that your now awaken magic was putting a damper on the true strength of your fire magic." Erza thought out loud.
"Well, there is only one way to find out!" Natsu exclaimed with a mischievous grin. He then started towards the doors. When he realized no one was following he turned around and said "Are you coming or not?" raising an eyebrow to the crowd.
-X-
When everyone was finally outside, February and Natsu stood across from each other and everyone gathered around.
"Hit me with your best shot." Natsu commanded and proceeded to get in a defensive stance.
February took a deep breath, gathering as much energy she could muster.
"FLUTTERING FLAME ATTACK!" She chanted and the magic energy then began to radiate off of her body in the form of fire. When all of the magic energy required had formed flames, they began to morph into butterflies that then raced towards Natsu at an alarming rate. As the butterflies hit Natsu, each one hundred sending him back about a foot.
When the attack was over, February had sent Natsu back about four feet leaving long streaks in the ground from where he had dragged his feet. She saw the astonishment on everyone's face before she collapsed from exhaustion.
-X-
Lucy and Wendy rushed over to the now sleeping February, who had a smile on her face.
"She'll be fine." Erza piped in when she saw the worry on the girls' faces. They looked at her in horror when she walked over to the girl. "How could she say that?" they thought.
"February didn't finish recovering all of her magic energy and decided to use one of more stronger spells in the grimoire I gave her, so she could learn some spells. When she has a day's worth of rest, she'll be back to normal." Erza explained. Everyone seemed to let out a sigh of relief at the sound of that news.
Just then they air around the guild got an ominous aura. Everyone turned to the direction it was coming from. There stood a boy and a girl with mischievous grins on their faces.
"We're looking for Laxus and Makarov." they said in unison, as they took several steps forward.
"Who's asking?" Makarov inquired, also stepping forward. The children's smiles just seem to grow wider.
"Hello Grandpa." the boy said, instantly recognized the old man.
