Of Fire and Ice

C.37

The next day we went back to the guild to find it in a fight. "Home sweet home." I sighed and Grey laughed, taking my hand in his and pulling me to the bar. But then Natsu dragged us over with the rest of the team to a table. It hurt a little to walk with these forever-lasting period cramps.

"Look! I found a job that paid eighty thousand jewel and all we have to do is read this passage!" He said exitedly, and Happy urged him to read it. He read the shit in some language, and there was a bright white light, and I felt super weird and a little sick.

Then it was quiet for a moment, and I soon realised I wasn't in pain anymore. "Whoa! Whatever you did took my cramps away! Thanks, Natsu!" I smiled happily, but my voice sounded weird, a little deeper than normal.

"Oh my God! There are KNIVES in my stomach!" A voice said, and I saw me leaning over in pain, and the voice sounded so weird. "Wait... why am I looking at myself?" I asked. "Henley, I'm Grey!" I... other me said. I looked down and saw that I was shirtless and in Grey's body.

While the rest of them sorted out who was who, I was staring down at my pants and moving my hips around. "Gre- I mean, Henley, what are you doing?" Lucy, who was in Natsu's body, asked me. "Dude, I have a dick." I said in clear astonishment.

As I stared down at Grey's/my crotch, everyone turned to stare at me. "How does this work? Where does it go when you wear pants? To the left? To the right? Is it just a bunch of dick in the middle? This is my chance to find out." I mumbled to myself.

I was about to pull the band away from my/Grey's skin, then Grey in my body yelled, "Don't you dare even do that here!" "Oh psh. Like no one's ever seen you naked." I rolled Grey's eyes. "And besides, Grey. You have my boobs now. And like Ari said, they're really soft."

"They really are." Harley said and I gave her a look. We soon found out who was switched; Natsu and Lucy, Harley and Ari, and Erza and Happy, and of course Grey and I.

Ari, who was really Harley, came up to me and told me to go play with it in the bathroom. But Grey in my body took my attention away.

He was now lying on the floor in fetal position. "Why am I in so much pain?" He gasped. "It's called a period. Us females go through them once a month. Now be a man and suck it up and act like everything's fine like the ladies do." I said with a smile. "Man, it feels great to not have a uterus. If I ever get married, I hope they don't want kids, cos I am so getting my uterus removed after this." I sighed.

"Hey, that's great and all, but for now, let's focus on getting back in our bodies." Lucy in Natsu's body came over and put her/his arm around my/Grey's shoulder.

"Try reading the words backwards. It's probably some simple shit like that." I shrugged. Levy came over and wrote down the backwards text. "Okay, we might want to do one pair at a time so the spell won't get confused." She said. Then everyone began arguing, and Grey in my body started taking off my clothes.

"You're not going to stop him?!" Lucy in Natsu's body asked. "No. I wore cute matching underwear today." I smirked. After a while, I stopped the fighting.

"Okay, I have a number in my head, one to twenty, try to guess it, go." I said and pointed to each of them.

"It was seventeen. Erza and Happy go first, then Harley and Ari, then Lucy and Natsu, then myself and Grey." I said. "You're really humble to go last." Erza said. "I just want a little more uterus-free." I sighed.

We were soon all changed back and when the light cleared, I opened my eyes and felt something close to Natsu punching me in the gut. I held my lower abdomen for a bit, then I regained myself.

"Does it hurt?" Grey came over and put his arm around me. "I seriously hope you don't want kids, I am seriously going to remove my uterus." I sighed.

"You do that." He laughed and kissed my temple.
