Body Swaps

Natsu, Lucy, Gray, Erza, and Happy arrived at the fairy pub where Mira ran up and greeted them.

"Hey, you guys made it back." She said with a large grin on her face. "How was the job."

"it wasn't that hard." Natsu told her, adjusting his arm the feeling a slight tingle.

"I agree." Erza answered.

Gray just scoffed at not wanting to talk about it at the moment, and Lucy still had the stars in her eyes. "I got a gate key."

However, Mira was focused on Natsu's arm, and the following glare told them that they should scoot back. "Natsu."

They were realizing what she was talking about. "Listen, Mira, It's not as bad as you think."

Mira then began scolding Natsu for being so careless, which got a laugh from everyone.

"Come on Mira." Elman said as he stopped laughing. "Go a little easy on him."

"Well, I would if this didn't happen every time he went on an S-class job." Mira shouted at her brother.

"Are they dating or something?" Erza asked Lucy.

"No." Lucy sighed.

"Mira is pretty much Natsu's older sister from what I can tell." She explained, "even though they're not related, she cares for him like a little brother."

"Well, well." A voice called. It turned out to be Loke as he shoved flowers in Erza's face. "It looks like a ray of sunshine has entered the building-" Before he could finish, he noticed Lucy on the other side.

Loke lets out a light shriek before falling to the ground, causing Erza to sweat drop.

"Does that happen a lot?" She asked, confused.

"I have no idea." Lucy told her. She looked over to see Mira had finished shouting at Natsu and was checking his arm.

"Come on, Mira, it isn't that bad." Natsu pulled away from her before he noticed a job on the board. Taking it, he brought it over to Lucy and Erza.

"Hey guys, look at this." Natsu said, showing them the paper.

"What is it?" Lucy asked.

"I don't know, but the reward is huge." Natsu said as he started to read the job description but was stopped when a bright light flashed and consumed him, Lucy, Gray, Happy, Erza, and an unconscious Loke.

When it ended, the group stopped and looked around, confused.

Gray stood up, looked around, and then started shivering.

"Hey, you guys turn off the AC." He stuttered. "It's freezing."

"Huh?" Elfman asked, walking up. "Ice wizards don't get cold."

"I'm serious, you guys." Gray continued, "Turn on the heater or something."

Lucy then shook her head and looked around.

"Huh, that's weird." She said. "Ugh, my chest, why does it feel so heavy." before falling over. "My back is killing me too."

"You all right there, Lucy?" Macao asked.

"Wait; I'm." Gray started before looking at Lucy and letting out a small scream.

Loke then sat up, rubbing his head. "Wait, when I'd get on the floor, why is it so dark!" He shouted.

Natsu then started to look around.

"Wait, wasn't I on the floor a minute ago." Soon, Natsu looked at Lucy. He then scooted back and ran out of the pub.

"Hey, what's your problem? You can't face me dragon breath!" Lucy shouted before stopping. "Okay, why'd I sound like a girl."

"Um, I'm no doctor, but I think because you are a girl." Macao answered.

"Why is everyone acting so foolishly" Happy shouted, standing very firm and composed, getting a confused look out at everyone.

"Hey, Natsu." Erza called out. "Where'd he go?" She asked, looking around.

"I'm right here." Loke called out.

"And why is this place so dark?" He asked, not noticing the sunglasses he had on.

"I could be wrong, but-" Erza then squeezed her chest, causing the men in the pub to blush. "I don't think I've had these before."

"Why you!" Happy shouted. Then he attempted to kick Erza, only for her to put armor on, causing him to fall. "I don't get it; I've never felt so tiny and weak before; it's like I've re-quipped into." Happy swallowed a lump in his throat. "A cat."

"Why are they running my quality drinking time." Cana moaned as Romeo smiled at the group.

"They couldn't ruin anything." He said, smiling.

"I'm confused!" Gray shouted.

"First, I started freezing out of nowhere, and now's there some creepy look-alike of me." Gray said as the group started to panic.

"You fool!" Happy shouted.

"How could you be so blind? Isn't it obvious." Happy told them. "We've all switched bodies."

"Huh?"

"Yes." Happy explained. "Natsu and Loke, Gray and Lucy, and worst of all, me and Happy"

"What?!" The entire place shouted.

"Stop messing around, Happy." Loke (Natsu) told him

"I'm Erza, you dolt!" Happy (Erza) shouted

"The ancient unplus spell has been cast." Mavis said, appearing in the doorway. "I see you kids aren't feeling like yourselves today."

"Mavis." The group said as they ran up to her.

"I noticed that request on the board." Mavis told them. "By reading that description aloud, you cast a personality transference known as the changeling."

"So, you're Natsu, right," Lucy(Gray) asked.

"Um yeah." Loke(Natsu) answered.

"What the hell did you do!" Lucy(Gray) shouted.

"All I did was read the damn job request." Loke(Natsu) responded. "And will someone turn on the lights?"

"Calm down." Mavis interjected. "The changeling swaps more than just bodies for wizards." Mavis told them. "It changes magic as well."

"Huh!"

Meanwhile, Natsu(Loke) walked through the streets.

"Man, it feels like someone poured lava down my throat." He stopped and smiled.

"Hey." Natsu(Loke) said to a pair of girls. "Is it hot out here, or is it just you." They then both let out a scream and ran away. Natsu (Loke) looked confused and then noticed he was drooling fire. He panicked before running off again.

"And one more thing." Mavis said.

"If the spell isn't undone 30 minutes after the spell is cast, you may never change back to how you were before." She added. "Or so says the legend, at least."

"What?!" The whole group shouted. "How long have we been mixed up for."

"16 minutes." Mira answered, "which means you have about fourteen left."

"Is there a way to change us back?" Loke(Natsu) asked

"Seeing as this is such an ancient spell." Mavis answered, "it would only stand to reason that I." Mavis held a long pause before smiling. "Don't know."

This caused the whole group to fall to the floor, dumbfounded, as Mavis walked away. "I must say, I was looking forward to asking about your job, but I guess that'll have to wait."

"That's it!" Lucy(Gray) shouted as he attempted to take his clothes, getting the men in the guild blushing, only for Gray(Lucy) to stop him. "Let me go."

"Oh, I see." Erza(Happy) said. "Even though Gray is in Lucy's body, he still likes to strip." the cat said. "Then that means."

"No!" Happy(Erza) shouted.

Soon a bright light engulfed Erza's body as Happy attempted to change armor. "Wish my luck, guys, yea," Instead, he got a fish suit. "Aw man, I wanted to get one of those cool pieces of armor she has."

Happy (Erza) then attempted to attack Happy again, failing. "I can't believe this; I was once a powerful wizard, and now I'm a cat."

"I see; we switched Magic with each other." Loke(Natsu) stated. "But we all stink at it."

"Hey Loke." Wakaba called. "Or whoever is in there."

"it's me, Natsu, you dolt." Loke(Natsu) called out.

"Figure out what kind of Magic he uses yet." The man asked.

"Yeah." Elfman agreed. "Ba a man, kid, and show us."

*'I don't know.'* (Loke)(Natsu) thought to himself. *'I mean, I don't feel anything magic-wise.'*

"I don't think I can take this pressure anymore."

Loke (Natsu) shouted, panicking.

"Hey guys!" Natsu(Loke) shouted as he ran back to the pub, still drooling, fire coming from his mouth.

"Man." Macao said. "It's like he's drooling it."

"That's not frightening." Mira said, giggling.

"This is awful." Gray(Lucy) said. Ice cubs fall out of their mouth.

"Um Gray, er Lucy." Mira said. "You're drooling Ice hon."

"Huh," Gray(Lucy) said, shocked. "Why me."

"Don't you worry, Lucy." a voice called out, which turned out to belong to Levy, who was with her two friends, Jet and Droy

"Don't worry." Droy said, smirking. "Team Shadow Gear has arrived."

"We go this, no sweat." Jet stated.

"Now do your thing, Levy." The two said in unison.

"When you say us, you mean her, right?" Mira asked, getting a laugh out of the two.

"You're so sweet to help us." Gray(Lucy) said.

"Anything for my girl." Levy answered.

"That and, well, I want to read your novel, and it would be weird talking about it with Gray." Levy whispered.

Moments later, Levy sat down and began reading over the paper the group found.

"I see." She said, going over it.

"Is it a good idea to read that like that." Lucy(Gray) asked.

"It's okay as long as I don't read it fully." Levy replied, trying to focus.

"Hurry." Natsu(Loke) demanded. "We only have ten minutes left."

"Everyone." Happy(Erza) said as she landed with a fish in her mouth. "We need to let Levy concentrate." She looked down to notice the fish hanging in her mouth and fell inhumanely. "Why'd I have a fish in my mouth."

"Cause they're yummy."

Levy sat the paper down and let out a sigh.

"I don't get it!" She screamed.

"Oh no." The group said in horror.

"I never thought I'd have to live out my days as some strange flying cat." Happy(Erza) said as she fell to the ground.

"What's so wrong about that, huh?" Erza(Happy) asked while Lucy(Gray) tried to strip again, which caused Gray(Lucy) to panic and stop him again.

"I feel so funky." Loke(Natsu) said as they walked around.

"The ladies will never talk to me now." Natsu(Loke) said.

"I know you're all scared, but you must stay calm." Levy told them.

"How much time do we have?" Loke(Natsu) asked.

"Eight minutes." Macao answered. "Hate to say it, but I'd get ready for the worst."

Jet and Droy appeared and started cheering Levy on, causing the group to sweat drop.

"So, Deru is. Oh, I see." Levy muttered as she read the paper.

Later the group all sat at a table, hoping for the best as time passed.

"So, what happens next? "Lucy(Gray) asked.

"What do you mean?" Loke(Natsu) asked.

"I mean, if we get stuck like this, do we just adjust to our bodies and go back to work." Lucy(Gray) asked.

"I guess we wouldn't have a choice." Loke(Natsu) answered.

"I wouldn't mind either way." Erza(Happy) told them, getting a look from Happy(Erza). "If I stay quiet, people will be nice to me because I'm scary."

"What?"

"Well, no one asked you, stupid cat." Gray(Lucy) said as she walked up to Natsu(Loke).

"I just want to be a cute girl again." She sighed as she and Natsu(Loke) began to drool fire and Ice.

"Are those frozen chunks of drool." Loke(Nasu asked. "Man, that's gross."

"I know it's gross!" Gray(Lucy) shouted, "And I'm not a man." Gray(Lucy stopped, and her eyes widened in shock.

"Guys, how would you get to work?" She asked.

"We don't know how to use these bodies' magic." She moaned. "Even if we took a job, we'd never be able to finish it."

This got a reaction from the group as they all tried to figure out the magic in their bodies.

**[##Fairy tail main theme##]**

"Let's go, Happy."

"Aye."

"Ice makes something or other."

"How do you use these keys again."

Happy(Erza) flew by. "Wow, this is nice, wait, I need to focus."

Soon the group slumped on the table again with a dark aura hanging over them.

"We suck." They all muttered.

"Argh," Loke(Natsu) shouted. "I can't believe I can't even use my fire to burn stuff anymore."

"I am an S-class wizard and demand to be turned back," Happy (Loke) shouted. "If only I weren't trapped in this form."

"I don't see what's so wrong with it." Erza(Happy shouted. "I like being a cat." He then jumped into the sky and landed on top Of Happy(Erza), crushing them.

"Just what trying to do there, Erza er Happy?" Macao asked.

"Ever since we switched, she's been saying mean things." Erza(Happy) answered. "But I couldn't fly away 'cause I don't have my wings."

"I'm sorry." Happy(Erza) muttered before passing out.

"I got it." Levy shouted, which got the rest of the group to crowd her, " it says may this eternal exchange grant you forever happiness."

"Aw, that's nice." Natsu(Loke) answered.

"We wanted you to fix the curse, not translate it." Lucy(Gray shouted)

"You got this." Gray(Lucy) answered. "But you need to work faster; maybe there's a code or some hidden message in words."

"Yeah," Levy answered as Jet and Droy started to cheer.

"Wouldn't all that cheering distract her?" Wakaba asked.

"No." Elfman told him. "It's getting her pumped up, and they need all the help they get." Elfman shouted before joining them.

"I can't see any pattern." Levy admitted as she rubbed her temples.

"Three minutes left." Macao informed the group causing Gray(Lucy) to cry and drool more Ice.

"I can't believe it." Happy(Erza) said.

"From now on, fish for breakfast, lunch, and dinner." She cried before flying away. "I've worked so hard; no, I'll spend my days chasing mice and playing with a string."

Erza(Happy) walked up to her in the corner.

"I know this is hard for both of us." He admitted. "We shouldn't be fighting, so will you forgive me."

"Really, well, I'm sorry, too." Happy(Erza) informed him.

"Aye, here's something to make ya feel better." Erza(Happy) held out a fish which caused Happy(Erza) to fly away again, crying.

"Could you be any more clueless." Gray (Lucy) shouted at him.

"Please tell me you figured it out yet!" Loke(Natsu) shouted.

"And time is dire with only one minute left." Macao shouted, jumping in front of him.

"Did I ask for the time." Loke(Natsu) growled.

"Jeez, I was just trying to help."

"I almost got it." Levy told him as Elfman continued to cheer her on.

"He's too good at that."

"Still trying to figure out the spell?" Mavis asked, returning to the room.

"Come on, Mavis. You have to know something else." Loke(Natsu) asked.

"Hmm." Mavis said as she stood next to Mira.

Lucy(Gray) then panicked and began to remove his shirt again. "We're not going to make it." He shouted as Gray(Lucy) stopped him.

"Taking off my shirt is not going to help Gray!"

"You have about 40 seconds, more or less starting now." Macao told them.

"What do you mean more or less."

"Oh yeah." Mavis said, a light bulb going off. "I forgot to say that only one pair can be switched back at a time."

"What?" The whole group shouted.

"Oops."

"Thirty seconds ish." Macao called out.

"SO, which pair is going first?" Lucy(Gray) asked.

"I think it should be me and Loke." Loke(Natsu) said.

"That's not fair." Gray(Lucy) said. "It should be Gray and me."

"No, it should be me and Happy; it's for the greater good."

"I don't care either way."

The group started fighting over who got to go first as everyone looked on. "At least they can't use magic."

"Just 15 seconds." Macao called.

"Guys, I think I have it!" Levy shouted.

"Really." the group cried.

"Twelve, eleven."

"I'll try to explain quick."

"Nine, eight." Macao was then knocked into a table by an angered Loke(Natsu). "No time, just change us back."

Levy nodded and began chanting the words, and another bright light filled the room.

**[##Happy's theme##]**

Once it cleared, Lucy and Gray looked up and looked around.

"Hey!" Lucy shouted back in her own body. "It worked."

"Yeah." Gray answered. "How'd you know."

"You see." Levy explained. "Once I discovered the words had no meaning, I just read them backward." Levy told her. "Ancient texts did this cause they had fewer letters."

"Wow, I never would have thought." Lucy admitted.

"We owe ya one." Gray said, smiling.

"I'm still in the wrong body!" Natsu(Loke) and Loke(Natsu) shouted shocking Levy and Lucy.

"Me too." Happy(Erza) said, horrified.

"Cool, I get to stay like this." Happy said.

"Well, that does it for time." Macao said. "You got one pair back though."

"You mean we're stuck like this!" Loke(Natsu) shouted.

"I can't stay some fire drooling pink haired freak of nature." Natsu(Loke) cried.

"Come on." Loke(Natsu) called. "There has to be something else."

"Maybe, I didn't read it right." Levy admitted. "Sorry."

"Now, now." a voice called. The group turned to see Mira sitting at the bar. "Don't lose hope. There has to be another way, and why does my chest feel heavy."

"Hey, this is weird." Mavis said, looking around. "Is it just me or did everyone get taller."

"Oh no, Mirajane." Lucy cried.

"Don't tell she switched bodies with Mavis." Gray called.

"Well, I'm not complaining; I've gone from adorable to sexy in a matter of minutes." Mira(Mavis) shouted, doing a pose.

"This is freaking me out." Mavis(Mira) cried.

"All you guys need to do is man up and get over it!" Cana yelled as Elf was drinking a barrel of Beer. "Wait, why do I smell like a burial."

Elfman then looked over and panicked when he saw Cana before him. "How did I-" Elfman's (Cana) face turned blue, and he fell off the table.

"Hey, Droy?" Jet asked.

"What is it now, Jet."

the pair looked to see they had swapped as well.

"What the hell, man? Stop looking like me." They shouted in unison.

"I don't any would be able to tell the difference, with you too." Mira(Mavis) told them. "But me-" She then lay across the bar and winked.

"I finally know what it feels like to have a bigger chest, and it feels great." She said, scaring Mavis(Mira)

"Levy help me." She cried.

Levy, Lucy, and Gray looked in horror as everyone panicked and tried to figure out what was happening.

"Sorry, but I think I'm over my head here." Levy admitted.

"This is awesome." Erza(Happy) shouted, "Everyone is someone else now."

"Have you gone nuts?" Loke(Natsu) said. "This is horrible."
