Author:Hey guys I'm back with this chapter, so enjoy!
Normal P.O.V.
The City of HakudÅshi
" Do you have the scent yet Natsu?" Erza asked her as Natsu sniffed the air for any type of lead. " I smell nothing so far. " Natsu said as she looked around the town.
Team Natsu was currently in the heart of the city. The town seemed very lively around the Spring here. Many varieties of shops were open with happy-go-lucky sells man and women. Residents of the area were gradually talking and laughing about common things, enjoying each others presence. Children running around with wild grins and a trail of laughter following there every move. This town was literally perfect.
" Dammit. How the hell we gonna find this amulet that Mr. Osamu said to look for? " Gray complained with a scowl on her face.
" I think we should ask some townspeople if they every heard about them. Someone other than and Mrs. Mitsu should at least heard about it. " Lucy said as she looked at the rest of the group.
" Very well then." Erza looked through the crowded streets and made her way to a shop. It was a small pottery shop, which seemed to be owned by a mother and daughter pair. " Excuse me Ma'am? " Erza announced, gaining the attention of the mother. The mother had brown hair and brown eyes.
" Oh why would such a youthful looking young man be visiting my shop in the middle of the day? " The woman laughed joking as she looked at Erza. " My guild mates and I would like to ask you something about this town. " Erza said as she looked down at the brunette woman with a smile as the rest of Team Natsu came and stood behind Erza.
" Of course! What would you like to know? " The woman asked as she continued her job and moved some of the pottery around.
" Miss, do you know any information about the Amulet of Amaterasu? " Gray asked the woman before Erza could say anything else. The woman placed the vase down and looked back over at them. " The Amulet of Amaterasu huh? I'm sorry but my brain doesn't recall such a thing. " The woman said feeling disappointed in herself.
" Don't feel disappointed in yourself okay? It's not your fault. " Lucy said with a generous smile, making the woman return the warm greeting.
" Oh! Maybe I should ask my daughter. She gets around much more than I do, so she can possibly know something about it. " The woman said as she turned around and called for daughter, "Mayumi! " [ A/n: Just to say, Mayumi means " true bow (archery) ]
" Yes Mum?! " A girl ran from the back of the shop with a dirty apron and clay marks on her face. She had dark brown hair and a deep set of blue eyes that differed from her mother.
" Sweetie, these people are from a guild called...um. What guild are you from? " The mother asked as she looked over at them all. Natsu turned to her to right to show them our guild mark to the women." We're from-"
" FAIRY TAIL! " The girl Mayumi shouted with glee. Her eyes nearly twinkled in delight at the mark.
" You heard of us? " Gray said with an eyebrow raised. " Of course I have. Even though, we don't look like it, we do have some trouble. I remember some guild with the same mark as you all that came by one time. I think one was short with blue hair." Mayumi said trying to remember the face of the short blue haired person.
" Ah! You mean Levy. I think she told me about coming here one day. " Lucy said with a smile and the girl smiled back at him.
" Hey Mayumi! " Natsu said to the brunette, making her turn in her direction. " Do you know about this Amulet thing? "
"I believe I do. The Amulet of Amaterasu? I think I saw it before. " Mayumi said as she placed her forefinger on her chin.
" Can you take us there? " Erza asked the girl. " I would,but I have to finish helping my mother out. It's just us in this shop and it gets really crowded after noon. So could you guys possibly come back at 5?" Mayumi asked of Team Natsu.
" That is okay, we understand you completely. " Erza said with a warm smile. With that, Team Natsu had left the mother and daughter's shop. As they walked farther away, Natsu let out a loud annoyed sigh.
" Geez, now what are we gonna do? " Natsu said as he looked at the rest of them.
" Well for now, we can look around this town. " Happy said as he looked down at Natsu as he flew around her head.
" Happy has a point. Look at how lively this place is! It would be a waste if we just did a job and left. " Lucy said as hhe stood in front of the group making them stop in the middle of the path.
" I agree. This town is so beautiful. We will look around. " Erza said as she grabbed Natsu and Gray's arm's as they argued for them both to be released. Lucy and Happy just followed Erza for there simply is no reason for them to argue with him either.

" This city is so beautiful and lively. It almost reminds me of Magnolia." Lucy said as he leaned against the building structure. Lucy looked up at the sky. It was a beautiful sapphire that gave such a warm welcome to the townspeople and various travelers.
" Indeed it is. It's just so peaceful here. " Erza said as he nodded in agreement. Erza stood on Lucy's left side. Soon Lucy leaned off the building and looked at Erza. " Erza I have a question to ask you."
" Sure what is it Lucy? " He turned his head to face the blonde.
" Do honestly think that will be able to change back? I mean I do believe that Levy can find the cure for this, but would it work? What if we do take this cure, but is it guaranteed to change us back? Some of us could change and some may not. We honestly don't know the odds were up against! I just wanted to know if your thinking about the same thing because there is a possibility that we won't change or that something worse than that shall happen. I just don't know what to say or think about this." Lucy had a serious look on his face when he said this. Erza stared at the blonde for a long time until a smile grew on his face.
" Lucy. You have all the reason ti feel this way, but listen to me. We gotta take this chance, if they do find the cure. We all know that something bad can happen to us and that there is a very small possibility that we could live. However, a lot of us are considering...no. Majority of us is willing to see through. We can only hope for the best of things. Lucy, don't think negatively about the situation. We have to make the best of this bad situation. Just look at me and you. We're still going on strong and living our lives the same as if we were the same gender as before. Just like Natsu an-"
"Where is Natsu and Gray? " Lucy said as the two males recently realizing that they have lost the " females " in their groups.
" They were just here! Crap. Now we have to find them. " Lucy exclaimed as him and Erza had to put a pause on their conversation to find the missing females.

" Ah! That food was delicious!" Natsu stretched her arms in the air with such a happy and satisfied look on her face. Happy flew right beside her with the same expression, while Gray...had the complete opposite. Gray glared at the pinkette, who seemed to have not a care in the world. " I bet it was delicious..." Gray said through gritted teeth. Natsu turned her head towards Gray with a confused look on her face. " What's the matter with you?"
"What's the matter with me? Do you even understand how much you ate?! How much money I spent?! You might have ate everything on the menu...TWICE!" Gray shouted at Natsu, who just looked at her with a blank face.
" Stop complaining, you old hag." Natsu said nonchalantly with of wave of her hand. " It's not such a big deal. Once we complete this mission, you'll get your money back. " Natsu started to walk ahead and Gray casually followed with a tiring sigh.
Natsu and Gray soon started to walk around the streets, not even worrying about the lost of Erza and Lucy, and continued to enjoy themselves. People of the city were greeting them both kindly and they have received a handful of compliments from multiple men and boys in the vast town. The were accepting the compliments that they received until a few had gotten a little too personal. They even punched one guy who tried to grope them both, clearly not understanding who exactly they both were.
Soon enough they made their way to the outskirts of the town, which were much more peaceful than the very heart of the city. They were all gathered on a small bridge that was over a small little stream. You could feel the aura surrounding the whole area of the stream. This town was honestly the most peaceful place in the world. Natsu and Gray both made their way silently across the bridge. " Oi Gray! Should we go back to where Lucy and Erza was? "
Gray continued to walk and looked over to the left to look at Natsu, " I guess we can head back, but this town is actually quite impressive."
" Why do you think that? Isn't it just an average town?" " Average? Have you ever seen a town so peaceful? This town has this strange aura that is just so relaxing. The people here are just so happy. Think about it have you seen any of these people WITHOUT a smile on their face" Gray explained to her. Natsu looked at her with a blank face and a sweatdrop came to follow as the two was walking.
" You really are hopeless, you know? " Gray said as they walked until someone bumped into her, making her stumble backwards " Watch were your going next time. " Gray said looking up at the person and soon enough , her facial expression turned stone cold." Wait, your...it can't be."
" Geez, you didn't have to say it like that. " He looked down at Gray with a weird look o his face.
The look on Gray's face was just priceless to see. Gray had the look of embarrassment and confusion across his face. Gray started to talk to herself at a tone for only herself to hear. " He can't be really here. It's impossible. I could just be dreaming. Yeah I'm dreaming. He has no reason to be here. There's no reason for him to be here."
"Lyon-sama! Wait up." Chelia yelled as she ran towards the man that Gray was dreading to see at this moment.
" What the hell? Why is Lamia Scale here in this city? " Natsu asked as she looked directly at Lyon.
" And you are? Are you two from some type of guild or something?" Lyon asked as he glanced back and forth between Natsu and Gray.
" You can't see our insignia on us?" Natsu said as she turns towards her right to show the insignia of their guild mark.
Chelia had fnally been able to reach where Lyon was standing, using her knees to support her weight and she soon looked up to look at the two females in front of her." Wait, that's the Fairy Tail insignia. You guys are from Fairy Tail. " Chelia said making Lyon stare at them more. " Your from Gray's guild? I never seen you two before, so you must be new. "
" No we-"
"Yes were new. She's Natsuko Dragneel and I'm Setsuko Fullbuster . "Gray said with a force smile on her face. It was quite obvious that Gray did not want to be here.
" Fullbuster? Your related to Gray Fullbuster " This caused Lyon to become interested in Gray, which Gray was trying not to achieve.
" Um, well yes. I'm his...sister.
" Your Gray's sister? He never told me anything about a sister. " Lon said eyeing Gray
" Well, he didn't need to tell you everything about his life, now does he? Gray said, causing Lyon to chuckle.
" It's quite amusing because you seem to act exactly like Gray, but the difference is that Gray can never be able to be this good-looking at all." Lyon said causing a faint tick mark to appear on Gray's head and also earned a hated glare from Chelia. " Anyways, we have to get going Chelia. I'm guessing I'll see you ladies later. See ya Fullbuster." With that, Lyon had motioned Chelia and they both started to take off. Lyon looked back once more at Gray and gave her a wink before you could see the two anymore.
