I don't own any of the characters except for Oc.
(A/n: I'm skipping Galuna Island Arc, i'll be blunt. it is very boring arc and I don't feel like writing all that.)
~Jennifer's POV~
So Natsu and Happy steals an S-Class job request from the guild's top floor. He ends up dragging Lucy, Gray, me and Erza came along into the fiasco. The mission sends the group to an island where a mysterious plague transforms its residents humans into monsters under the light of the moon. As they investigate, Gray finds that this situation has ties to his past. After that turned out the villagers were island of demons and the moon drips just altered their memories for thinking that were Humans. I met Lyon who was grump and was blaming Gray but we were able to defeat him and Lucy got a new celestial spirit key. And also I have a Cat companion not like Happy, but she is based on Kirala from Inuyasha.
The Kingdom of Fiore. A peaceful nation 17 million and a place full with magic.
However... This time, we will be taking
a look at a very eerie spell... For the next thirty minutes, your mind will leave your body
and enter the realm of that magic...
"Is the master here?!" Erza asked as we were back from Galuna Island Arc and Mira walked up to us.
"you're finally back from your island getaway, so how was it, did you have fun." Mira said to us.
"It was work, not a vacation." Erza corrected her.
"Umm, please try to read the mood in the air, everyone..." Lucy said nervously.
"Where is the master?!" Erza asked.
"He left yesterday, saying there was some sort of council meeting being held somewhere for something." Macao stated.
"Whew"
"Safe for now!" I and Natsu said unison in relief.
"All right! Don't have to worry about "it" until Gramps gets back!" Gray said happily.
"What a relief! Now we won't have to endure hell for a while!" Happy cried of happy tears.
"What are you guys talking about?! Ahh, I gotta know! Ahh, I'm scared!" Lucy says in panic, "Not knowing what it is makes it even scarier!"
"Be silent!" Erza yelled at us, well, Natsu, Gray, Lucy and Happy. "Geez, Erza-nee don't be a party pooper." I said to her with an amuse look.
"When will the master return?" Erza asked Mira.
"No, I would imagine, he will come back anytime now." Mira told Erza.
Erza turned to us, "Now listen up you fools, you're not getting off the hook, you broke guild rules by taking on S-class quest, prepare to be punished." She told us as Happy, Natsu and Gray panic in fear. I had a scared expression on my face.
"What am I supposed to prepare myself for?!" Lucy panic in fear.
"Guess there's no way around it! Still, never mind Natsu, Jenny and Gray, I can't believe Lucy's gonna have to go through that... Poor girl..." Wakaba said.
"Poor girl...?" Lucy mumbled in panic.
"Hey, Wakaba! Whadya mean, 'never mind us?!" Natsu said angrily at Wakaba.
"Yeah! And don't stick me in the same boat as Natsu!" Gray said.
Natsu glared at Gray as he heard Gray's statement and got angry and punched him. "What's that supposed to mean?!"
"Exactly what I said! Can't you ever take a hint right?!" Gray fired back.
"Real men need to take responsibility properly." Elfman said with crossed arms.
I noticed Lucy was staring at my neck. "Is there something wrong, Lucy?" I asked her.
"Oh, I have noticed that tattoo on your neck, I was wondering what it was about?" Lucy asked me. I touched my mate mark, "Oh, it's a dragon mark for saying that me and Natsu are romantic partners or in human culture like marriage." I answered her question.
"Ehhh!? Really, that's cool." Lucy said astonish. I smiled at her.
"Show us just how manly you are!" Elfman said to them.
"That's not fair! I wasn't even part of the "never mind" list!" Happy said crying.
"Seriously, what's going to happen to us?!" Lucy said panic. I chuckled nervously.
"Changeling"
Natsu noticed a weird job quest. It was black with white texts and eyes on with a bold text saying Read This. It was 500,000 J.
"Oh! There's a weird job posted!" Natsu said looking at the job quest.
"Huh? What's this...?" Gray said looking at it as well.
"Oh, Natsu. Welcome back." Loke greeted them.
"Hey, Loke, what the heck, I can't even read it." Natsu said then tried to read the job quest.
I walked over to see what was Natsu try to read. I saw it was that filler episode called Changling. "Oh, this episode." I whispered to myself.
"Read what?" Lucy asked as she walked next to Loke who freaked out by her appearance.
"Y-You're back too, Lucy?!" Loke said shocked.
"Of course I am. I was with Natsu and the others.
Why are you so freaked out?" Lucy said to him.
"N-No, I'm just... Bye!" Loke said to her then run into Erza who was walking over.
"All of you! You know this is no time for that!" Erza ordered them. I slowly walked away from the group so I don't get into this weird episode.
"So weak..."
"Geez. How noisy..." Cana said holding a beer cup in her hand.
"Wizards really are awesome!"
"Hey, now..."
"Please decipher the meaning of this writing. Solve it, and I'll pay you 500,000 Jewel." Natsu reads the paper. "Whoa, awesome! It's worth 500,000!"
"Sure does!" Happy agreed.
"Decipher some writing? That's an unusual job..." Gray questioned. "Wait, this is ancient script!
Who can possibly read this?"
"But there's a modern transliteration next to it." Happy said looking at the paper.
"I told you to stop." Erza commanded them.
I was hiding behind a pillar and looking at them with a worried look.
"Oh! I can read this! Let's see here... Ugo deru rasuchi boro kania..." Natsu looked at paper then reads the texts on the paper. "I don't know what that means at all!" Then a bright light flashed rainbow on them as I looked even more weirded, out even more.
"What is that?" Macao asked.
"Oh? The fear of punishment can even scare rainbows out of people?" Wakaba said.
"I don't think that's quite it..." Macao said to him then the light dead down, I looked at everyone, I know what happened in this episode.
"I'm cold!" Lucy/Gray said shivering.
"Huh? How can an ice wizard be cold?" Elfman said confused.
"What's going on? My insides are unusually cold!" Lucy/Gray said shivering.
"I-I feel heavy! My chest area feels unusually heavy!" Gray/Lucy said in a deep voice, "I-It's hard on my back..."
"What's going on, Lucy?! Your voice is lower than usual..."
"Maybe something happened to them with that weird light." I said behind a pillar, everyone looked around to see where was my voice was and saw I was behind a pillar. Everyone else sweat-dropped at me. "What?"
"Why are you behind a pillar?" Cana asked. My face turned to cringe one, "I'm frightened..."
"Frightened?" Macao said with a sweat-dropped. I nodded as I continued to watch the scene happen.
"Th-That's not tr-" Lucy/Gray said looking at her body, "Huh?! What?!"
"Huh? Why was I on the ground?" Natsu/Loke said who was laying on the floor and got up.
"More like, why am I standing up?" Loke/Natsu said confused. Then he looked at Lucy and runs away from her.
"Hey, Natsu! Why are you running away after seeing my face-" Lucy said in a deep voice, "Huh? What's with this voice?"
"E-Everything seems a little off somehow, don't you think..." I said in a worried tone.
"What is all this commotion about?!" Happy said in ordering tone and was firm and composed.
"Oh! Natsu! Look! Look!" Erza said in happy tone, "Huh? Where's Natsu?" As she looked around for him.
"Huh? What do you want? Man, why's everything so dark?" Loke said.
"I have two neat boobies on my chest! See?! See?!" Erza says grabbing her boobs. All the boys got excited. Happy was angry and to kick her.
"Stop that!"
But Happy hit Erza's armor.
"That doesn't hurt at all." Erza said.
"Why am I in this cat-like body? Actually, this is a cat! I don't remember requipping into anything!" Happy said talking like Erza who is Erza in Happy's body.
"Geez. Can't I just drink in peace?"
"Magic is so cool!"
"Hey, now..."
"What in the world's going on here?! I feel really cold!" Lucy said in Gray's body. Everyone but me was dumbfounded.
"And why is there an exact look-alike of me here?!"
"Huh?! What're you talking about?!" Gray/Lucy said.
"Do you not realize it yet?! We've switched minds and bodies!" Erza/Happy said.
"Huh?!"
"What do you mean, Happy?!" Natsu/Loke says.
"I'm Erza!" Erza/Happy corrected.
"I'm Happy! That's so mean, Loke!" Happy/Erza said.
"Argh, shut up!"
"Which means...Natsu and Loke...Gray and Lucy...And, Happy and I have switched places!" I said walking over with a cautious look.
"Huh?!" Everyone but me said in shock.
"The ancient Unpela-ese "Changeling" spell has been set in motion." Gramps said at the door that was opened. "You kids are feeling yourselves today, huh?"
"Master!" Erza/Happy said running towards him as the others as well.
"Gramps!"
"That job flier was the cause. Reading a certain spell aloud will cause the personalities of nearby people to switch. That spell is the Changeling spell." Gramps explained.
"Changeling?!" Lucy/Gray said frightened.
'I mean, it's a spell, maybe it could, I don't know worn out, after a few minutes.' I thought as this filler episode was dumb. 'But, I'm not going to say anything, until the end of the episode, I'm that sadistic.' I smiled evilly to the side.
"You're Natsu, right?" Gray/Lucy said placing a hand on his shoulder.
"Yeah." Natsu/Loke said.
"What the heck have you done?!" Gray/Lucy yelled at him.
"Don't look at me! All I did was read the flier!" Natsu/Loke shouted back. "Man, why's it so dark in here?!"
"Stop it, Lucy. I mean Gray." Gramps said then corrected himself. "This spell switches more than just personalities. It switches magic, too."
"Huh!?"
"If the Changeling spell is not lifted within 30 minutes of its activation...you will remain changed for the rest of your life." Gramps said, "So the lore says."
Everyone who was switched started to freaked out.
"H-How many minutes has it been?!" Natsu/Loke asked as he looked at me.
"Sixteen. That leaves fourteen minutes." I answered.
"14 minutes left"
"Gramps! Is there a spell to turn us back?!" Natsu/Loke asked.
"Well, it is ancient magic, so it goes without saying that I...don't know." Gramps said as they all were dumbfounded, "I was looking forward to punishing you for the S-Class quest incident...but that won't do any good now! Well...! Good luck."
"Dumbfounded"
"Alright, that's does it. I can't take this anymore!" Gray said in Lucy's body by trying to take off her shirt.
"No! Anything but that!" Lucy in Gray's body tried to stop him from taking off the shirt.
"I need to take it off..." Gray argued.
"Oh, right! That's Gray inside, so he still has his habit of stripping! I want to try it!" Happy/Erza said then requip her armor.
"Happy? Wh-What are you-?" Erza says trying to stop Happy. Happy/Erza start requiping the armor as the outcome was Erza wearing a one piece swimsuit with a fishing pole in hand.
"Ta-dah!"
"Oh! This is great, too!"
"How dare you?!" Erza/Happy said but was elbow in the face, "I-I can't believe this... My pride as an S-Class wizard..."
"Huh? That's weird. I meant to wear a cool suit of armor..." Happy/Erza said in sad tone.
"Well, that's was interesting, turn of events." I said nervously.
"I got it! We did switch techniques, but they're weak and lame now!" Natsu/Loke shouted.
"Hey, Loke! I mean... whoever's inside!" Wakaba said.
"Don't call me that! What do you want?!" Natsu said.
"What about your magic?" He asked him.
"Why do I feel so on edge?!"
"Someone help me!" Loke said in Natsu's body as he ran inside the guild hall, with fire dropping from his mouth.
"What's with that fire?" I asked with a cringed expression. "It's more like drool than fire, weird."
"Oh! I see! So this is what it's like to fly!" Erza said, "No, this is no time for admiration! We're running out of time!"
"What are we going to do?" Lucy said worried, drooling out ice pieces.
"Gray. I mean, Lucy. There's ice coming from your mouth..." Mira says.
"Gross! I hate this..." Lucy says covering Gray's mouth.
"Lu! Leave it to me!" Levy said as she was standing at the entrance of the guild hall.
"Levy!"
"Levy! Welcome back." I greeted her.
"The Shadow Gear team is here to save the day!We'll turn you back to normal!" Droy said to them.
"Yeah! Don't worry! So..." Jet said.
"It's all yours, Levy!" The both of them said to her.
"Levy's going to fix this on her own, basically?" I said with amused smile.
"Thank you, Levy!" Lucy thanks her.
"It's for you, Lu! I'll do my best!" Levy said walking up, "I want to be the very first person to read your novel, Lu!"
"So what are you gonna do?!" Natsu asked.
Levy looked at the paper, "I know a little about ancient writing. So I'll start by looking up the writing on the flier." She said with reading glasses.
"The clock's ticking! Will you make it in time?!" Gray said to her.
"Just leave this to Levy!" Erza/Happy said in a mumbling tone with a fish in mouth. I snorted then snickers.
"Why, did I had a fish in my mouth." Erza said disappointed.
"They're yummy!"
"Let's see here...Ugo deru..." Levy reading a book.
"10 minutes left"
"Oh, no! Only about 10 minutes left!" Loke said in a hurry.
"Is it okay for you to read the writing out loud?" Gray asked her.
"It's safe to read ancient spells like this out loud as long you don't read it all as-is." Levy answered, "Let's see..."
"There's no time!" Natsu said, "Ahh, I feel so out of it! I can't stay like this forever!"
"Oh? I kinda like this! Again! Requip!" Happy said excitedly.
"I said stop that!" Erza ordered him to stop.
"Well, Levy?" Lucy asked her.
"Did you figure anything out?!"
"I don't know how!" Levy confirmed.
"So I'm going to live the rest of my life as a weird cat with wings..." Erza said depressed.
"I am not weird!" Happy argued with a fish in mouth.
Gray grabbed Lucy's shirt again
"I said don't do that!"
"Ahh, I feel so out of it!" Natsu complained as he was uncomfortable.
"Will I never be able to date again?!" Loke said in Natsu's body with drooling fire coming out.
"C-Calm down, everyone! I'll keep trying to figure it out!" Levy said convincing them to calm down.
"Macao! How much time left?!" Natsu asked him.
"Eight minutes." Macao answered.
"Eight minutes left"
"Looks like you should maybe get ready for the worst..." I added with worried look.
"Hurray! Hurray! Levy!" Jet and Droy cheered her on.
"They're nothing but a cheering squad for her!" Wakaba said.
"Deru, Oh, here it is! And then..." Levy said continuing to read the paper.
"What do we do if we get stuck like this forever?!" Gray asked.
"Huh? What do you mean?" Natsu asked confused
"Are we just gonna keep working, stuck like this?" Gray said.
"If we can't go back to normal, what choice do we have?"
"That's fine with me! All I hafta do is stay quiet and nobody will know the difference!" Happy said.
"Hey!"
"You know that isn't the issue here! You stupid alley cat! I don't want to be stuck like this!" Lucy argued, with drops of ice coming out.
"Gray! I mean, Lucy! That's totally gross!" Natsu said.
"I'm not shooting this out of my mouth because I want to, you know!"
"What is it, Gray? I mean, Lucy? This is bad! All our techniques are weak now, right? We'll never be able to do serious work like that!" Lucy explained.
"Well, yeah if you place like that, we...are now...we're the weakest team in Fairy Tail!" I said confirmed.
"L-Let's go, Happy!" Natsu ordered.
"Aye!"
"Ice Make...!" Lucy/Gray tried to do his magic.
"O-Open, door of something-or-other...!"
"Oh! Flying certainly is fun!"
Everyone was depressed.
"Oh, man! Now that you mention it, this is really bad! Why didn't I realize something so simple sooner?!"
"It must be because I've turned into a cat..." Erza said in depression.
"That's mean! You've been a big meanie ever since we switched bodies!" Happy said as fall on top of Erza who was in his body, crushing her.
"What was that, Erza? I mean, Happy?" Macao said.
"She was being mean to me, so I tried to fly away...But I... But I don't have wings, so I fell..." Happy said in sad tone.
"M-My apologies... Just please get off-" Erza said being crushed.
"I got it!" Levy says excitedly.
"All right! You can lift the spell?!" Natsu asked.
"Hurry, Levy!"
"This ancient writing means, May this eternal exchange bring happiness unto you." Levy said
"Hurray! You're amazing, Levy!"
"May this eternal exchange bring happiness unto you." Loke said confused.
"And?!"
"In other words, people who've been switched by this spell will live happy lives forever! Oh, I'm so glad I deciphered it!" Levy said.
"Hold on! That means we're stuck like this forever!" Natsu shouted at her.
"All you did was figure out what the flier says, Levy..." Gray said to her.
"Oh, you're right! What do I do?!" Levy said worried.
"Levy! You have to break the spell! There has to be a way! There must be a hidden meaning or something! Focus on looking for something like that!" Lucy said to her.
"Right! I'll do my best!"
"Hurray! Hurray! Levy!" Jet and Droy cheered as her.
"Is it me, or is that cheer team more annoying than anything?" I said annoyed.
"No! It's good to have fighting spirit! Almost makes me wanna join in!"
"Hurray! Hurray! Levy!"
"No, this makes it even less understandable.
It's not even words!" Levy said.
"3 minutes left"
"Three minutes left, I'm out of flip cards." I said holding a sign.
"Ahh! Fish every day from now on...Morning, noon, and night... N-Nothing but fish...? Am I destined to be excited by catnip and such from now on?!" Erza says in sadness.
"Calm down, Happy! I mean Erza!"
"Erza. Sorry about before. I shouldn't have acted that way." Happy said to cheer her up.
"Happy! Do you really?" Erza said in a hopeful tone.
"This is no time to be bickering, is it? Let's make up!" Happy reassure her.
"Yes... I apologize as well!" Erza agreed.
"Here! This is a symbol of our renewed friendship!" Happy said handing her a fish.
"Fish!" Erza said the flew away, "Don't want it!?"
"Read the situation better!" Lucy said to Happy.
"Levy! Are you done yet?!" Natsu asked.
"1 minute left"
"This is seriously bad. One minute to go!" Macao said remained us.
"Is it just me, or are you actually enjoying this?!" Natsu asked him in anger.
"N-Not at all..."
"Just a little more! I think I'm close to getting it!" Levy said continuing ciphering the words.
"You can do it! You can do it, Levy!" Elfman cheered, "I'm all fired up!"
"He's too suited for this..." Wakaba said in disbelief.
"Oh? You're still at it?" Gramps asked.
"Gramps! Don't you know any spells?! At this rate, we're gonna be-"
"Hold on, I just remembered something." I said with hand on my cheek.
"What!?" They said.
"W-Wish I could help you." Gramps interrupted me, and I just sweat-dropped.
"We're not gonna make it in time!" Gray said trying to take off Lucy's shirt.
"I told you, anything but that!" Lucy said wrestling Gray from taking off the shirt.
"I give up!"
"Dunno how accurate it is, but you probably have about 40 seconds left!" Macao reminded.
"What do you mean by "probably"?!" Natsu questioned.
"Oh! I remember something!" Gramps said.
"What is it?!" Erza asked.
"As I recall, when lifting this spell, you can only do it one pair at a time. I believe it's impossible to turn everyone back at once!" Gramps explained.
"What?!"
"30 seconds left"
"You have thirty seconds! Or so..." I said.
"Or so..."
"Which pair goes first?!" I asked them.
"Me and Loke, of course! Right, Loke?!" Natsu said.
"Yes."
"I don't think so! We go first!" Lucy said.
"Not so fast! What will happen to Fairy Tail if I get stuck this way?! Happy and I should go first!" Erza says.
"I don't care either way!"
Everyone starts to argued.
"This is ugly..."
"People turn scary when they're driven into a corner..." Mira said.
"Fifteen seconds!"
"Oh! I got it!" Levy shouted.
"Twelve! Eleven!"
"Levy!"
"I found out what this is! Basically, the best way to explain it...!" Levy explained but I had walked back to my corner to from getting involved.
"Nine! Eight!"
"Levy! You can explain later! Hurry!" Natsu said as he punched Macao from counting.
"Right! Here goes!" She said, "Aruboroya tesura rugi gou!" Levy says as she repeats the words three more times. A bright light flashes around them.
"Oh! I'm back to normal!" Lucy said excitedly.
"Me too!" Gray said as Ice was dropping from his mouth.
"Huh? Ice comes out even when you're normal?" I said.
"Levy! Thank you!" Levy thanks her.
"Our cheers paid off!"
"Tell us how you did it!" Lucy asked her.
"There was no meaning to the words. So I tried reading them backwards. They didn't have many letters in ancient times, so whenever someone wanted to express different things they'd make it so reading it backwards would have a different effect." Levy explained to her.
"That's why reading the spell backwards undid it!
Ah! Thank you so much!" Lucy said.
"We owe you one, Levy!" Gray praised her.
"I did it for you, Lu!" Levy said.
"Th-The spell's not broken!" Loke and Natsu said in panic.
"Wha...?!"
"I haven't changed, either! I'm still a cat!" Erza said shaking.
"I'm fine either way, though!" Happy said excitedly.
"Talk about racing against the clock. I guess the other two pairs didn't make it in time." I said from a far as Everyone looked over to me as I was hiding behind a pillar.
"Why are you hiding again." Natsu asked me. "No comment." I replied.
"You can't be serious! Wh-What now?! Try it again, Levy!" Natsu asked her.
"Huh? I think I might've made a tiny mistake..." Levy said nervously.
"What?!"
"Then we're stuck like this forever?!" Natsu said.
"No! I don't want to drool fire forever!" Loke complained.
"Now, now. There's surely another way." Mira said but I think gramps is in her body.
"Is it just me, or am I shorter?!" Mira said as she was in Gramps's body.
"Ah! Whoa! Mira! Don't tell me you...!" Lucy said shocked.
"Gramps and Mira have switched places!" Gray yells in shock.
"My, what a nice body!"
"No! Anything but that!"
"Could it be...?" Erza said.
"Real men never give up, Natsu." Elfman said in Cana's body, "Huh? Why does my body reek of booze?"
"Gah! What is this?! Why am I Elfman?! I feel sober all of a sudden..." Cana said in Elfman's body then faints.
"Hey, Droy!"
"Huh? What is it, Jet?
"We've switched places!"
"You two switching places doesn't make much of a difference. Still... What a dreamy, nice body this is!" Gramps said as he posed in Mirajane's body.
"No! Levy, do something!"
"I'm in way over my head now..." Levy said in shock.
"Yay! Everyone's switched places! This is so neat!" Happy said in cheerful tone.
"This is no time to be happy!"
A fictional spell... this is not.This slightly imbalanced realm of magic exists just around the corner from the world they call their daily lives.
So, until next time...
"I mean, I know that this was going to happen." I said with a mischievous smirk. "Oh my, you guys have a terrible fate, huh..."
"You know that this would happen, but not saying anything." Lucy yelled at me. I just laugh very evilly.
