Chapter 29
A/N: Channeling arc!
Lucy, Erza, and Wendy sat at the bar, talking and conversing with each other, and just simply enjoying their time together as a new family.
The first couple of days since they had came back, when they had announced that they Wendy was now there daughter, there was an uproar. A party was made in their honor, a welcome party for Wendy, as well as a congratulatory party for Lucy and Erza having adopted a daughter.
Erza was happy to hear that Juvia took on a job with Gajeel a little while ago. She didn't have to worry about Juvia trying to hit on her girlfriend. Or her new adoptive daughter. Erza still remembered so clearly when Juvia flipped, finding about Wendy. Erza couldn't stop smirking from that.
"Wendy, do you want to go out on a job?" Lucy asked, looking at Wendy.
"Yes! I sort of got used to the environment to being here." Wendy replied with a smile.
Lucy chuckled. "It took me a long time for me to get used to this environment."
"Really? Why?" Wendy asked.
"Oh...well...before I joined, I came from a...bad childhood. So it was hard for me to adapt to this place for a while."
Wendy wanted to know, but she was too shy and nice to press for any more information about Lucy's past. "What about Erza's"
"Her past is similar to mine...in a way." Lucy hesitated for a moment.
"Let's not talk about this right now. But first, why don't we go on a job together?" Erza cut in after hearing her name from the bluenette and the blonde.
Wendy perked up. "Ok! Can I choose one?"
"Well, it has to be easy for you. This will be your first job, correct?" Erza queried.
"I'll be sure to find some easy ones." Wendy replied before running to the request board.
Erza turned to Lucy, "This certainly has been livelier since Wendy came along."
"Yes. I can only hope that it was the right choice." Lucy muttered.
"I'm sure it was."
"Hey guys!"
Erza and Lucy turned to see Natsu walking toward them with a piece of paper in his hands.
"What you want, Natsu?" Erza looked at the pink-haired boy, not quite wanting him to be near her or her girlfriend...or Wendy.
"Look at this! I found a weird job posted on the request board." Natsu said, placing the paper on the table.
Lucy was curious, so she leaned over to look at the piece of paper. "Please decipher...the meaning of this writing."
"And it's only for 500,000 jewels. Perfect for Wendy, don't you think?" Natsu grinned.
"That's an unusual job...interesting, but I don't think Wendy could do it." Erza said, speaking her honest thoughts.
"That's an ancient script. Who can possibly read this?" Gray said, popping out of nowhere, quite interested in the job.
Erza, Lucy, Gray, and Happy crowded the piece of paper with curiosity.
"We should give Wendy a chance to read it." Lucy said, looking at Erza.
"What's the harm? Sure why not?"
Lucy turned to see Wendy still at the request board. "Wendy! Come here!" She called out.
Wendy turned when she heard her name being called. She sauntered to the crowd and sees a piece of paper on the table.
"What?"
"We have a first job for you." Natsu cut in.
Erza bonked him in the head. "It's not really a job. But if you can't do it, that's fine."
Wendy blinked at Erza before looking at the piece of paper that was littered with ancient letters, and some modern transliteration next to them.
Couple minutes later, Wendy was lost. She never seen this type of ancient literature. She deflated as she turned to the others, "I can't read it."
Natsu beamed and leaned over to look at the paper. "Oh! I can read this!"
Lucy had a bad feeling about this...
"Let's see here... 'Ugo deru rascuhi boro kania'..." Natsu paused before pulling his hair in frustration. "I don't know what that means at all!"
Lucy sighed as she facepalmed. "Of course you wouldn't know."
"Never hold expectations for the flame idiot." Gray commented.
"Aye!" Happy cheered, mysteriously appearing from nowhere and landing on the table.
Erza remained silent.
Wendy chuckled nervously.
Then the piece of paper begun to shimmer a bright rainbow color, filling the room with pretty colors. Wendy was fascinated by the colors. Erza was fascinated on how Lucy looked when the colors of rainbow illuminated on her. Natsu and Gray was frozen for some reason. Happy was jumping up and down.
Then the light died down, as if nothing happened.
Lucy felt like something was off. Her chest suddenly felt bare...like the weight was suddenly lifted of her chest. She looked down...yep, her weight was suddenly lifted off her chest. But what frightened her the most was that she was wearing a familiar scarf that belongs to Natsu. She was bare chested and wore trousers.
Just why am I in Natsu's body!? Lucy was freaking out now. Before she knew it, flames was pouring out of her...or Natsu's mouth. Fire! Oh shit! Fire! Lucy was having a heart attack...but soon settled down, realizing that the flames was doing nothing to her. It still freaked her out.
"Hey, flame breath! That's looks stupid!" A squeaky voice boomed.
Lucy turned to see Wendy looking at her with a scowl. She blinked couple of times. She suddenly knew what was happening now. "Gray?"
"Of course it's me, crater face! Who do you think you're talking to?!"
Lucy sighed, which promoted more flames to pour out of her mouth. "If I didn't know better, I would be talking to Wendy."
Gray blinked before looking down to see that he looked completely different. It wasn't long before a squeaky voice was heard.
"Why is it so cold in here!?" Gray shouted, hugging himself, violently shaking.
Wendy and Gray...Natsu and me...and I'm guessing Erza and Happy. Lucy noted....wondering just how this had happened...the ancient script? Or was it just a coincidence? No, definitely the former.
"What is all this commotion about!?" Happy shouted, demanded answers, totally unlike of him to do so.
Lucy immediately knew that it was Erza. Just how did this happen?
Lucy walked toward Erza, who was trapped inside of Happy, still looking for answers for the chaos in the guild. It seems like she doesn't know that she even switched places.
"Erza." Lucy nervously called out.
Erza turned her blue head toward Lucy. "What is it, Natsu?"
Before Lucy could answer her, or corrected her, Lucy's body, or Natsu jumped Lucy and shook her violently.
"Why am I looking at myself!? I feel weird! Is this Lucy in there!?" Natsu yelled as he shook Lucy.
Lucy had to whip Natsu's hand away to make him stop shaking her, as she was feeling a little motion sickness from all of the shaking. "First of all, yes. Second of all, what you mean you feel weird?"
"You feel weird. You're too heavy." Natsu complained. He brought one of his hands and groped on of the breast...Lucy's breasts. "They're too heavy. How can you live like this?"
Lucy wasted no moment to jump Natsu and hit him in the head. "Don't you dare!"
Erza, who was trapped inside of a blue cat was confused now. But it didn't take her long to grasp what was happening, especially when she was watching herself running around with newfound curiosity to do naughty things.
"Natsu, where are you!?" Erza...or Happy called out with a cat-like smile.
"Huh? What do you want?" Natsu muttered (still in Lucy's body) while he was walking backward...anywhere not near Lucy.
"I have two neat boobies!" Happy cried, holding Erza's chest like it was for everyone to see.
Lucy watched as Erza jumped and tried to hit Happy, but failed miserably as she hit hard armor with a loud clang..
"My pride as an S-Class Wizard..." Erza trembled in her small blue form. "Of all people, it has to be the idiot blue cat." Erza sniffed.
"What you mean by that!?" Happy cried.
"Just what I meant!" Erza shouted back.
"It's so cold!" Wendy cried, hugging the form that was Gray's, while ice was spilling out of her...or Gray's mouth.
"How can I possibly fight Natsu like this!?" Gray shouted, looking down in despair of his now petite form of the young dragon slayer.
Lucy sweatdropped from the sidelines, watching as her girlfriend and her adoptive daughter bickered with other members. She needed to calm them down and talk about this. "Everyone, be quiet!" Lucy yelled.
Thankfully, they quieted down, but they also got the attention of the rest of the guild.
"As you can see, we switched bodies." Lucy pointed out the obvious. "First, we need to find a way to get back to our body.
"Okay, but who is who?" Wendy...or Gray who was in Wendy's body asked.
"Natsu switched with me. Erza switched with Happy, and Gray and Wendy switched bodies." Lucy concluded.
There were collective gasp across the room as they realized the revelation that they were in. 'Gray' was glued to the ground, shaking violently, muttering how cold it was. 'Erza' was going around with childish glee, groping her breasts all the while. 'Wendy' was in a pose that Gray usually does, not looking happy. 'Happy' was in a firm and composed stance, trying to not freak out, muttering things like cat form sucks, or idiotic cat. "Natsu' was just standing in silence, just watching the whole thing.
Lucy was more or less, scared. What if they were stuck in these bodies for the rest of their life? Erza was thinking the same thing. How could she kiss her girlfriend? How could she go on a date with her if she just a measly useless little cat? A pathetic one at that.
Erza would rather die than kiss Lucy who was trapped in Natsu's body. What had the world gone to?
"You had activated one of the ancient spells, Changeling." A voice boomed in the voice.
The mages turned to see Makarov standing at the entrance. The mages that was affected by the changeling immediately ran to him in a state emergency.
"Master! Please help us!" Erza ran in her tiny blue legs that belonged to Happy.
"Undo this!" Lucy begged in Natsu's voice.
"Happy will disgrace us all!" Erza pointed out.
"That's mean!" Happy pouted.
"I want to be able to hit Natsu, not Lucy!" Gray said with squeak voice that belonged to Wendy.
"It's so cold..." Wendy shivered.
"I can't fight with these on my chest! It's not scary enough!" Natsu roared, trying to ignore the bounciness on his chest that belonged to Lucy.
"When you had read the spell out loud, you had activated the changeling and cause the people in the vicinity of a certain area to swap bodies and magic." Makarov explained, quite amused about the situation.
"That would explain on how we switched bodies. Then how do we switched back?" Erza asked.
Makarov cocked his head to his side as if in deep thought. "Hmm...I don't know." Makarov began to walk to the bar, leaving the affected mages in shock and in a gloomy state.
He paused for a second and turned to the mages with a mischievous smile. "But I do know one thing..."
The affected mages perked up and stared at the old man, anxious to hear what he has to say.
"If the changeling magic isn't undone within 30 minutes, you won't ever go back to normal." Makarov said, immediately followed by heavy thumps where the affected mages dropped dead to the floor. "Or so the legend goes." Makarov added as he plopped onto the table and begun to drink and watched with glee.
"30 minutes..." Natsu muttered. With haste, he turned to Mira with desperation in his eyes. "Mira! How many minutes had it been?!" He had tears in his eyes. He didn't want to fight with boobs on his chest forever...Plus, he only knew how to fight with fire, not tasty looking spirits.
"16 minutes. That means you have 14 minutes left." Mira answered in a calm attitude, quite amused by the change of...events. It was quite the scene to watch.
Erza was the first to break, being in a cat's body, it was more than horrendous. All Erza could think of was fish...the disgusting food that cat eats. Fish...the cursed fish. Erza wanted to die.
Then there was Gray, who was trapped in Wendy's body. He couldn't take it anymore that he decided to strip.
Lucy was smart enough to stay next to him in case something like this was going to happen. She grabbed Gray's...or Wendy's hand and restricted him from moving so he won't strip...and leave Wendy naked.
Lucy, personally, was extremely overwhelmed and shocked. She really didn't want to have a...dick for the rest of her life. Plus, she wasn't a huge fan of fire. So...bad combination for her.
Wendy was still shivering. She was unsure of what will happen. She wonders what Carla will say. Wait? Where is she?
"Where's Wendy?"
Ah speak of the devil.
Wendy turned and sees her little cat friend looking around before setting her eye on her...her body that was possessed by Gray. Wendy wonders how Carla will react to this.
"Wendy! Sorry if I disappeared. I needed to take care of something." Carla was within meters before realizing that something felt...off.
She noticed how Erza was smiling and groping her breasts. How Happy was on the ground, being all mopey, not happy at all. How Gray was trembling as if he was cold. How Lucy was running around, something about clicking time bomb. How Natsu was standing there with fear in his eyes. Then there's her Wendy who looks like a thug...well, acts like a thug.
Carla sighed. "Why is everything so off? And are you okay Wendy?" Carla asked, looking at Wendy, who's Gray had possessed.
Wendy, or Gray's body shifted and walked toward Carla. "U-Um...Carla. I'm Wendy."
Carla stared at the ice mage in non-amusement. "Yeah, and I'm Zeref. Why are you all acting so weird?"
Lucy decided to confront Carla and speak to her, and talk to her on what's happening.
"Carla."
Carla turned to see Natsu walking to her and gave him a scowl. "What you want Natsu?"
"Long story short, I'm Lucy. And Wendy is trapped inside Gray's body...and vice versa." Lucy explained.
Carla blinked at Natsu...or Lucy and realized what was happening. Her biggest fear ever...came to fruition.
"You defiled Wendy?!" Carla exclaimed!
"No...I'm fine." Wendy said otherwise.
"No! This is unacceptable. How could this happen!?" Carla yelled. She turned back to...Lucy. "You better know how to reverse this spell!"
Lucy could only stare back at the angry looking cat. "I-I...we really don't know..."
Lucy swore that she never seen a cat so angry. She was afraid that she would be cut by Carla's claws.
"Oh, woe is me. How can I protect Wendy if I simply allowed her to be switched....I trusted you guys!" Carla cried.
"In case you haven't noticed, we are suffering too. I don't want to be stuck in a monster's body!" Lucy yelled, quite fed up with the cat's attitude, who was quite over reaction...maybe.
"Who's calling me a monster?!" Natsu roared, stomping to where Lucy was.
"Me! With your fire and all, you're definitely a monster!" Lucy cried.
"And I don't want to eat fish for the rest of my life!' Erza cried, latching herself on Lucy's arm, tears falling down. "
Lucy sighed. She could only hope that Makarov was being a devious little old man, and that the spell will be lifted...and everything will be turned to normal.
