Natsu woke up to the smell of food, still groggy from yesterday's ''Bandit Incident''. Looking beside her, she nearly got a heart attack when she saw Gray's clothes over her own. Attempting to remember if anything happened last night, she painstakingly got up to get dressed. but the God of Bad Luck must have bestowed Natsu with his unholy blessing, because the second she got up, Gray barged into the room.
''Yo Natsu! Breakfast's ready...''
Gray's eyes bulged and his cheeks turned red, As Natsu instinctively covered her breasts.
''KYYAAA! GET OUT YOU PERVERTED ICE-STRIPPER!'' She yelled, sending a burst of Flame that blasted Gray through a wall and into the Guest room.
''H-huge...'' Gray mumbled.
It was a pretty awkward morning after that incident, as the two mages couldn't even look at each other directly in the eyes after the ''incident''.
''So how long are you planning to hide from the guild?'' Gray finally decided to ask.
''You just walked in on a girl, do you really think this is the appropriate time to bring that up?'' asked Natsu.
''I'm that used to having guests over for more than one day, so I tend to act as if I'm alone at home even though there are guests.'' explained Gray, ''Besides, you walk in on Lucy all the time, and usually you follow up with a ''So, wanna go on a job?'', so you're one to talk.''
''So what? You think I sound like Lucy now?'' asked Natsu.
''Your new personality isn't that far off, just change clothes and dye your hair no one can tell the difference.'' Answered Gray.
A light bulb ignited in Natsu's head.
''THAT'S IT!'' Natsu cheered, slamming the table, ''A DISGUISE!''
Gray looked confused.
''What do you mean a disguise?'' asked Gray.
''I can join the guild acting as someone else, then, I can pretend you and I are taking a job and use that time to rescue that hostage from Impel Down! Then I can finally return to being a man again.'' said Natsu.
''Why don't you just tell the truth? I mean, we already forgave you.'' said Gray.
Natsu backed down.
''I wish I could but, I down think I will cope well with my changes, Gajeel, Erza, Elfman, Mira, people I challenge all the time will take this opportunity to take revenge while I'm weak, I'll get teased by the female members, especially Cana, and the older Male members like Macao or Wabaka or even Gramps will try to hit on me.''
Natsu dropped to her knees.
''I'm just too scared.''
Gray's heart skipped a beat.
''GOD DAMN IT NATSU! WHY ARE YOU JUST SO DAMN ADORABLE WHEN YOU'RE A WOMEN?!'' Thought Gray.
''Alright.'' Said Gray, ''We'll do it your way, what do start with?''
Later that day...
Natsu tackling a Shichibukai request has spread like wildfire throughout the guild, as Everyone was talking about it. Most people bet on him returning beaten up and broken while others started betting money on how many broken bones he was gonna have. Then, the door of the guild opened as Gray and a pink haired girl walked by him, instantly capturing the guild's attention.
''Yo, who's the new girl?'' asked a few guild members.
''I dunno, but damn, she's hot!'' replied another one, admiring her red leggings and white Heart Creuz crop top, that exposed her belly button and left just enough cleavage to capture the attention of 80% of the men in the guild.
Gray walked up to say hi to Makorov, who didn't pay much attention to him as much as peek towards the girl next to him.
''Hey! eyes over here old man.'' said Gray.
''Oh What? sorry, I was distracted, you were saying?'' asked Makorov.
''I met a girl while searching for Natsu who said she was looking to join the guild, I thought I would bring her in.''
Makorov turned over to Natsu.
''What's your name, Young one?''
''Natsumi, Natsumi Dennel.''
Gray leaned over and whispered.
''Natsumi? Really?'' asked Gray.
''It's the best I got, just roll with it!'' Replied Natsu, also whispering.
''Natsumi huh? And I assume you can use Magic too, this is a mage guild after all!''
''Crap! If she shows him her Dragon Slayer Magic, he's gonna put two and two together! I better do something!'' Thought Gray.
''Of course!'' Natsumi said, instantly transforming into Lucy. (Author's note: Natsu actually knows transformation magic, He learned it from Mira in a side story and even transformed into Lucy.''
''Transformation Magic? not bad.''
''Wait what? since when did Natsu learn that?'' Thought Gray.
''Alright, welcome to the guild!'' said Makorov.
''really? just like that?'' asked Natsu, almost forgetting how accepting of a man Makarov was.
''Master, will all due respect, I think you show take Guild member recruiting a little more seriously.'' said Gray.
''I do, I examine her.'' said Makorov, peering at Natsumi's tits, ''Pretty thoroughly too, I'd say.''
''ALRIGHT, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!'' Said Gray, Pulling Natsumi away from Makorov.
''Hey, we didn't even give her the guild mark yet.'' said Makorov.
''I'll do it myself.'' replied Gray, before turning to Natsumi, only to find her getting surrounded by men.
''Welcome to the guild Natsumi-chan! You know, I'm by far the most well known member of the guild! Macao! in fact, I was it's forth Master! impressed?'' asked Macao.
''Oi-Oi-Oi! Macao, stop it! you're scaring her!'' said Gajeel, knocking people aside, ''Look at her! she's clearly a fragile flower! don't worry about them! If anything goes bad, just call me!'' he boasted.
''Damn, I'm attracting more attention than I thought! I need to get out before... before...'' Thought Natsumi.
''Everyone hands off!'' said Gray, pulling Natsumi out of the crowd, ''You don't have to be so harsh of her!''
''And gives you permission to touch her?'' asked Gajeel, grinning.
Natsumi knew that Gray wasn't gonna win the argument, so she decided to help out.
''Because I'm his Girlfriend!'' she promptly answered, Catching everyone off guard, even Gray. However, over the corner of the guild, something terrible was awakened with those words.
''GIRLFRIEND?!''
''Oh shit!'' though both of them.
''GRAY-SAMA IS DATING SOMEONE ELSE?!'' Yelled a very pissed off Juvia, who barreled into the crowd, charging towards Natsumi.
''Oi Juvia! this isn't what it looks like!'' yelled Gray.
''LOVE RIVAALLLLLL!'' Yelled Juvia, charging towards Natsumi.
Suddenly, Erza emerged from the back of the guild, yelling out ''Preparations are complete!'', catching everyone off guard.
''Preparations? what preparations?'' asked Gray.
''We couldn't find Natsu despite our best efforts, so we decided to bait him out!''
''With what?'' asked Gray.
''With a Full Fire Course Barbecue!'' said Makarov.
''Oh Shit!'' thought Gray, witnessing the plates of delicious looking fire based food.
Looking beside him, he can already see Natsumi starting to droll, so he pulled her close to him and charged out of the guild when no one noticed.
''GRAY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!'' yelled Natsumi.
''Saving your skin, what else?!''
suddenly, a hand reached out, grabbing both of the mages. While panicked, their panic dissipated when they recognised that it was Lucy.
''Okay, What's going on Natsu?!'' Asked Lucy.
