A/N: *sing-songy voice* It's that time of the month again, my loves! Oh, joy. *massive eyeroll*

This time it's my sweet Sky Dragon baby enduring the pain. I adore Wendy with my whole heart, I really do. But she's a Dragon Slayer and even they have to go through puberty. And boy, is it going to be a rough ride! Here's just a peek at what she's going through! Enjoy!


When your dragon leaves you when you're only a little girl, there are some things that don't get explained. Why you're supposed to wash your hands before you eat (Carla was especially put out by that). How long your hair was supposed to be until you cut it. Lovely things called manners that then have to be taught to you by a flying cat.

Oh.

And certain bodily functions. That appear and terrify and traumatize your older brothers.

And you, too, of course.

Yeah. Now you know how it feels to be Wendy Marvell the day her period first starts. It's a frankly terrifying moment. Fairy Tail still hasn't recovered from the trauma of a female Dragon Slayer beginning puberty.

As if the males hadn't been bad enough…


Wendy had been feeling achy, sore, and cross all morning. It was unusual for the normally cheery Sky Dragon to be so uncommunicative. Mira and Lucy had been keeping a motherly eye on the blue haired girl. Wendy worried about her guildmates' health so much, she sometimes neglected her own. They would look out for her, since Carla wasn't human and Natsu and Gajeel were idiots. If they were the only ones watching out for Wendy's care, the poor girl would have died ages ago from sheer stupidity on her guardians' side.

Wendy sat on a bar stool all morning, clearly attempting to bore a hole in the wood grain with the intensity of her glare. Any attempt from Carla to talk to her was rapidly shut down by a growl, a glare, or a couple muttered words. Eventually Carla gave up and flew off to talk to Lily and Happy. Wendy sighed and dropped her head on the bar with a light thump.

She wasn't sure what was going on with her body, but whatever it was, it hurt. Her lower abdomen throbbed intermittently, her head was aching with no relief, and her emotions were off the charts crazy. Let's not mention the blood she found earlier… There was a problem and the healer in her demanded to know what it was. The other half was too lazy and in pain to even care.

Natsu, the idiot, hadn't picked up on Wendy's murderous aura and simply acted the way he always did. He had been around a PMSy Lucy enough he should've noticed that something was off with his Sky sister. But he didn't. The damage incurred from poking an already irate dragon was entirely his own fault.

"Hey, Wendy, want to go on a job with us?" Natsu cheered, throwing a superheated arm over his sister's shoulder.

A low snarl left Wendy's throat. Get him off now, her inner dragon snarled in unison. He is disrupting the already delicate balance of your body. This is not a time to be interrupted. You need to be resting, little cloud, not sitting down here with the others. GET. HIM. OFF. Then you can go rest.

The girl in question barely moved a lock of blue hair as a massive wave of air threw Natsu across the room. Mira and Lucy both dropped their cups in shock. What on Earthland…? Gajeel and Laxus looked up in time to see Natsu crash into the wall. Wendy was hunched over, clutching her stomach and growling in a feral manner. Had she just thrown him across the room with no provocation?

"Wendy, honey, are you okay?" Lucy asked, cautiously approaching her friend. She didn't want to be sent flying like her idiot partner so she kept her hands to herself. As soon as she entered Wendy's bubble of awareness, the Sky Slayer looked up. Her eyes were in shadow which gave her a menacing look. The two remained in that position, Gajeel and Laxus in the background with Mira hovering anxiously behind them. Natsu had pried himself from the wall and moved over to the standoff by the bar.

With a silent cry, Wendy burst into a waterfall of tears. The motherly aura Lucy emitted reminded her of Grandine. Instantly, Mira and Lucy were by her side, cooing and comforting. Wendy buried her head in Lucy's chest and blubbered out broken words. Lucy caught every third or fourth one; "hurts", "pain", "stupid brother", and "blood".

Hearing that last word made Lucy and Mira exchange looks of sudden understanding over Wendy's head. They were grown women after all. How had they not noticed before? Wendy was the right age for her body to begin changing.

Lucy ran a hand over Wendy's silky blue hair. "Let's go upstairs to the infirmary and have a little chat, okay, sweetie? Sound good?" Wendy nodded, her inner dragon murmuring that the older girls could help explain what was going on with her out of control body.

The three swiftly headed upstairs, leaving behind three rather confused Dragons. Laxus's eyes widened all of a sudden and he blanched. For once in his life, the elder Slayer looked utterly traumatized. "Oh, no," he muttered, clutching at his head. "Not this again. Anything but this."

"Oi, Short Circuit, what's got you all pasty-faced?"

Laxus ignored Gajeel, staring with broken eyes into the distance. "Not this again. That's it, I'm leaving for good. One Dragon Slayer going through puberty was enough. And he wasn't even female…" Laxus looked as if he was going to be sick. Gajeel blanched as well. His crimson eyes flicked to the stairs his sister had vanished up.

"Actually, I think I might join you in that self exile. Slayer puberty ain't pretty. We can come back when Wendy's in her twenties. It might be safe then."

With that, the elder Slayers turned and hightailed it from the guild. They were not going to stick around with a moody, hormonal female dragon on the loose, no sir! A confused Natsu stayed behind, looking between the disappearing dust cloud that was his older brothers and the stairs.

"Can someone please tell me what's going on?"


A/N: I think we all want to know the answer to that question, lovie.
