"There's one thing you should know, if the Changeling spell is not undone within thirty minutes of the time when it was initially cast, you will never return to the way you were before!" Master informed solemnly. "Or so says the legend, at least."

The victims all stared at him with wide eyes and open mouths, well, except for Gray who was bawling.

"Do you know how many minutes we've been mixed up for?!" Loke turned to Mira.

"Sixteen." She informed. "So you have fourteen left."

"Gramps isn't there a way to lift the spell and change us back?" Loke cried.

"Hm, since this is such an ancient magic, it would only stand to reason that I... don't know!" Makarov informed, much to the guilds dismay. "I must say I'm disappointed I was so looking forward to punishing you, but it looks like you've got your hands full for now. Best of luck to you kids!" And with that Master walked away, and the victims began to sulk.

"But I didn't even do anything wrong, I don't deserve to be punished! I don't want to be in this man body forever!" Laxus sobbed.

"Alright that does it, I can't take this anymore!" Lucy declared, beginning to rip her shirt off. The boys of Fairy Tail stared excitedly at her.

Gray ran over to her with a screech and held her down screaming, "Get ahold of yourself!"

"Let go!" She snapped.

"So even if Gray's in Lucy's body he still likes to take off his clothes... then that means-" Erza started.

"That means what?" Happy looked warily at her.

"This'll be awesome, okay here I go!" Erza began to requip while Happy kept yelling at her.

"Happy, no! Stop this at once!" Happy demanded.

"Requip!" Erza yelled happily as a golden light covered her. "Uppa!" The light dissipated and Erza stood there in a dark blue bathing suit that said Erza on it and her hair in pigtails with fish clips. She held a wooden fishing rod. The boys stared at Erza hungrily with red faces and Happy again tried to kick her but failed miserably when she elbowed him in the face.

"No, this can't be... I was an S-class wizard and now I'm so weak." Happy brooded.

"Man, I was trying to change into one of those cool suits of armor she has." Erza complained.

"I see, we switched our magic with each other, but everyone totally stinks at it." Loke determined.

"Hey Loke... or whoever's inside him." Wakaba called out.

"Jeez, it's me Natsu, okay?!" Loke screamed, exasperated.

"Have you figured out what magic he uses?" Wakaba questioned as an 'Oh!' expression appeared on Loke's face.

"Yeah, come on, be a man, kid. Show us." Elfman demanded.

Loke furrowed his eyebrows and looked at the ground. "I don't know, I don't feel anything happening magic-wise, everything just kinda seems fuzzy." This peaked Laxus' attention. "Agh! I don't think I can take this pressure anymore!" Loke exploded.

Strange... I always sensed something strange with Loke. Laxus wondered to himself.

As this went on (Y/n) looked down at her body. Suddenly her face lit up and morphed into a mischievous smile.

Laxus looked over to (y/n) to see her peering down her shirt while holding her breasts.

"You pervert!" Laxus screeched. He grabbed (y/n)'s wrists. "I'm still mad at you don't even think about touching or looking at my boobs, creep!"

"Hey guys you gotta help me!" Natsu interrupted, sprinting into the guild. Fire dribbled from his mouth.

The guild members pointed out his lava drool. "Well that's certainly not threatening." Mira chuckled.

"I must admit flying is way more fun than I'd though it'd be." Happy floated next to Gray, before realizing he was wasting time and demanding to be changed back at once.

"What are we gonna do?" Gray moped and began drooling ice cubes just like Natsu.

"Hey Gray, err Lucy, you're dropping ice hun." Mira pointed out sympathetically.

"I hate this! Why me?" Gray whined, beginning to cry again.

"No need to worry, Lu!" A female voice came from the front of the guild. Everyone turned their heads to see three silhouettes standing in the archway entrance of Fairy Tail.

"Levy, it's you!" Gray looked at the silhouettes with hopeful eyes.

"The Shadow Gear Team is here to save the day, you guys will be back to normal in no time." Droy smirked.

"Oh yeah, we got this. Don't sweat." Jet added.

"Now, do your thing Levy!" They said in unison.

"When you guys say we, you really mean her, right?" Mira said in an amused tone. Jet and Droy both laughed awkwardly.

Everyone gathered around the table with the flier and Levy sat down and put her gale-force reading glasses on. They all watched as she diligently tried to decipher the paper.

While waiting on Levy, Loke begged to be changed back saying he felt 'weird' and Happy threatened Erza's life multiple times for attempting to requip.

"So how's it going, Levy?" Gray questioned.

"Have you figured it out?" Loke asked desperately.

Levy let out a defeated sigh, "No, I'm stumped."

"Oh no, I never thought my fate would be to live out my days as some strange flying cat." Happy flew slowly, feeling crushed as well.

"What's so terrible about that, huh?!" Erza glared at Happy.

"I wanna switch with someone!" Romeo stared a the group with big eyes.

"Not with me kiddo, I'd die if I was underage." Cana murmured then continued to chug her booze.

With only eight minutes remaining, the victims of the spell all began to prepare for the worse. They sat at a table moping.

"So what happens if we end up getting stuck like this?" Lucy grumbled.

"Huh, what do you mean by that?" Loke looked at her confusedly.

"Are we just gonna try to adjust to our new bodies and go back to work?" She retorted.

"Well, yeah, I'd guess we'd have to. It's not like we have a whole lot of options." Loke looked away.

"Whatever happens is totally fine with me!" Erza added cheerfully. "If I stay quiet everyone will be nice to me 'cuz I'm scary now!"

"What?" Happy gave her a pointed glare.

"Well no one asked for your opinion, did they? Stupid cat! I just wanna be a cute girl again!" Gray started sobbing and drooling ice cubes next to Natsu who drooled fire.

"Me too! I can't live in this giant man body forever." Laxus started crying as well and hugged Gray.

"Are those frozen chunks of drool? That is so gross, man!" Loke and Lucy watched Gray disgustedly.

"I'm not a man and I know it's gross, you think I'm doing this on purpose?!" Gray countered. Suddenly a shocked look of realization appeared on his face.

"What is it Gray, uh, I mean Lucy." Happy questioned.

"I just realized something. If we get stuck like this forever, none of us have a clue how to use our magic anymore... if we did take a job we'd never be able to finish it!" Gray concluded grimly.

And then, all hell broke loose as the victims realized they'd be the weakest team in Fairy Tail from now on.

Gray tried to ice-make while Lucy fumbled around with her keys, Erza attempted to requip again while Happy flew around pretty content. Loke tried to figure out his rings and Natsu drooled more fire, and Laxus kept shocking himself with his own lighting while (y/n) sat in the corner with a bored expression. She was obviously worried but she refused to act as foolishly as the other guild members.

At one point Erza attempted to fly and landed on top of Happy who fainted out of pain.

"Yes, that's it!" Levy yelled excitedly. Everyone gathered around her.

"Really? So you can lift the spell?" Loke asked with Natsu's signature grin.

"This is what it says- may this eternal exchange provide you with eternal happiness. Kinda cute, 'innit?" Levy explained.

"Aw, yeah, it is." Gray smiled blissfully.

Natsu repeated the words thoughtfully.

"Yeah, and?" Loke demanded.

"In other words, everyone's who's been switched by this spell will live happily ever after! You're so lucky! I'm so glad I figured it out." Levy smiled proudly.

Again, everyone began to freak out because Levy did not lift the spell, she simply read it. She sat there defeated as Lucy reminded her of this.

Jet, Droy, and Elfman cheered Levy on while she complained about how the spell made no sense. Gray cried when Macao announced only three minutes remained. Happy began to cry too at his new fate of being a cat forever while Natsu tried to catch him. Just as Happy flew back down, Erza apologized and cheered him up- that is until she offered him a fish in retribution. He flew away again crying and Gray reprimanded Erza for being so clueless.

With one minute left Loke began to scream at Macao and Laxus blew a hole in the wall when his exasperated shout accidently turned into a roar of lightning.

"Still trying to break the spell, are you?" Master questioned with his hands folded behind his back.

"Look, if you're trying to teach us a lesson here we've learned it, okay?" Lucy growled.

"Oh!" Master piped up.

"Yes, Master?" Happy asked while they all looked at him hopefully.

"No nevermind kids, I've drawn a blank." Master shrugged his shoulders naively.

Lucy began to lift her shirt again screaming, "AGH WE'RE NOT GONNA MAKE IT!"

Gray tackled her once again. "Taking my shirt off isn't gonna change anything, Gray!"

"LET GO OF ME!"

"I just remembered something about the spell!" Master yelled out at the forty-second mark. At this point even (y/n) was freaking out as they all gathered around Master. "Well it can be lifted I'm afraid it has to be done one pair at a time; meaning it's impossible to change all of you back at once.

The victims all began to argue amongst themselves about who should be changed back first and why. Quickly the fight turned violent, without the use of magic of course since no one could control his or hers anyhow.

At eleven seconds left Levy yelled, "Hold on guys, I've got it!" They all ran to her expectantly.

She began to cast a spell and the same rainbow light engulfed the guild.

"Hey, I'm back to normal guys!" Lucy grinned.

"Me too!" Said Gray.

Lucy hugged Levy gratefully as she explained how she lifted the spell.

"I'M STILL A MAN!" Laxus screamed, holding his non-existent breasts.

"WHAT?!" Lucy and Levy screeched as the rest of the guilds realized they were in the wrongs bodies. Even Master had switched bodies with Mirajane.

Oh well, it's the Fairy Tail Guild; they'll figure something out to solve this.
