When we returned from our mini vacation at Obstone, another unbelievable situation had been bestowed upon us. It has become apparent that some of our guild members are not the type of people to learn from past mistakes very quickly, which ended up leading to our team's unfortunate downfall. The next morning when we arrived at the guildhall, the day was supposed to start like it usually does- eating some breakfast, working and chatting with the others, you know, the usual. Everything was normal until the mailman arrived and gave us a pile of new job requests, and out of the thick stack of paper, one sheet stood out like a sore thumb, easily catching the attention of our curious guild master.

"What's this?" Sting asked while peering over my shoulder, "'To the main team of Sabertooth, please help us decipher this magical script.' Didn't we do something like this before?"

"Yeah, with the thing that swapped our gender?" I chuckled at the memory, "'Changeling'...? I feel like I've seen this somewhere before... Where have I seen this...?"

"What's this? Another deciphering job?" Rogue asked as Yukino peered over my shoulder to see too.

"I guess we should head down to the archives to start working," I said.

"I'll go find the other two. M'Lady went on a job earlier, so it'll just be the six of us," Sting said and left to find the other two. We all met up down in the archives once again and began digging through the mountains of books scattered all around the room.

"Hey, hey, Princess!" I let out a deep sigh and mentally prepared myself before turning towards the other lightning mage, only to get a puff of dust blown in my face, causing me to choke.

"Are you trying to kill me?!" I choked while trying to fan the impurities away.

"Left you breathless, didn't I~"

"Yeah by clogging my airways," I glared and smacked his head with a hardcover book before joining Yukino on the other side of the room instead. After gathering a decent amount of relevant books, we each started skimming through one, and after a while, it looks like some of us, Sting and Orga specifically, grew bored of reading and decided to turn their attention back to the mysterious flyer.

"By the way, I think it goes without saying to not read anything out loud...." Rufus warned, but he was a second too late. The bright light was already emitting from the paper, blinding us all, clearly signaling that more trouble was coming. When the light died down, I was standing by the other table while my body was still sitting where I was.

"W-What just happened..? Wait- Why am I sitting down?! Wasn't I standing up?!" 'Yukino' exclaimed, "Wait, wait, wait! Why can I see myself?!"

"W-What happened...?" 'Sting' questioned.

"Why am I a girl?!" the 'me' screamed in horror, making me facepalm. Why is this happening...? Does god hate me or something...?

"We swap bodies, I think..." I groaned once I realized I was in Orga's body out of everyone in this room, "Out of the five other people in this room... I had an eighty percent chance of getting someone pretty, yet why did I swap with this monkey?!" The wooden table under my hands shattered as the once sunny sky grew dark and thunder roared.

"Oh, so you're Levina," the 'Rogue' chuckled softly, clearly amused.

"And I see you're Rufus," I sighed. It was more than obvious judging by his tone.

"So let's get something straight, Sting and Yukino swapped, Levina and Orga swapped, and Rufus and I, Rogue, swapped," Rogue explained. We all immediately turned to Yukino's and my body, intensely staring at the cause of our distress.
