I got bored. XD

This is a challenge a few of my friends did. Their reactions were hilarious!

This fic contains spoilers.

DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME.

~THE CINNAMON CHALLENGE~

To: Lucy, Gray, Natsu, Wendy, Gajeel , and Happy,

I dare you guys to eat a spoonful of cinnamon.

From: Crazy Pyro

"What is this?" Lucy wondered out loud.

"It's a dare!" exclaimed Natsu, "Let's do it!"

"Aye!" Happy agreed with his partner.

"Men never back down from a challenge!" Elfman bellowed.

Wendy examined the mysterious letter, "But who is this 'Crazy Pyro' person?"

"Oh, Crazy Pyro is a close friend of mine. You can trust him," said a chuckling Mirajane, "He's still the same after seven years..."

"Are you sure about this, Mira?" Gray pondered.

"Whatever, let's do it, I'm curious about this dare." Gajeel announced.

"I'm not so sure about this…" Lucy muttered.

"Lucy's just chicken!" Natsu teased, mimicking the said animal by waving his arms up and down and making clucking sounds.

"Bok! Bok! Bok! Chicken! Lucy is chicken! Bok! Bok! BOK! BOK! BOK! BOOOOKKKK!"

"FINE! I'll do it, you idiot!" The Stellar mage snapped.

"So we're doing it!" Natsu cheered, "Mira, can we have some cinnamon?"

"Of course!" Mira replied a little too cheerfully as she went to the new guild's kitchen.

xXx

The six went to a table and each held a spoon of cinnamon in their hands.

"No taking it out of your mouth." Says Mira, the 'referee'. Everyone nods.

"Three…"

"Two…"

"ONE!"

They shoved the spoons in their mouths. A few seconds went by in silence as the rest of the guild watched with interest.

"Wait…" Macao paused, "Isn't cinnamon supposed to BURN?"

"Yeah." Wakaba replied before thinking once more, "…OH SH-"

Gray's and Lucy's eyes widened.

Gajeel and Happy froze in place, their spoons still clutched in their hand/paw.

Wendy dropped her spoon and covered her mouth.

Lucy immediately spit out her cinnamon on the floor and ran towards the kitchen for a glass of water as Natsu began to laugh, almost choking on his cinnamon.

"What's wrong with you guys?" he asked while taking another spoonful.

Wendy was next to run towards the kitchen. She came back with a glass of water, coughing and rubbing her eyes.

Romeo walked up to the group, "It's that bad?"

"No, it tastes really good, Romeo!" Natsu tells the boy, handing him a spoon.

Romeo shrugged and took some cinnamon.

"NO! DON'T DO IT, ROMEO!" Macao yelled.

Too late. The guild watched the young mage swallow the cinnamon, see his face change into a look of disgust, and go running into the kitchen with tears in his eyes. He came back gulping down a pitcher of juice.

"IT BURNS!" he screamed, "Oh god…" he took another gulp.

Suddenly, Happy grabbed the pitcher from him and began gulping it down as well.

"WAAATTTTTTERRRR!" Gray yelled as he fanned his mouth.

"I'M COMING, GRAY-SAMA!~" Juvia made a giant wave and moved it in his direction, soaking him and many others. Nonetheless, Gray opened his mouth greedily and drank as much as he could.

"MAH NOOOOSE! OH MAH GOD!" came another scream from Gajeel, who had been trying to keep his composure, "ID WEND UP MAH NOSE! AAAAAH!" he fell to the floor, screaming bloody murder.

The other guild members laughed out loud at their misery. The sounds of coughing and hacking filled the guild hall.

Romeo and Happy were fighting over the juice,

"OH GOD…"

"HEY! BLEEEAH!"

Gray was drowing,

"BLGHGF!"

Lucy and Wendy were still washing out their mouths in the kitchen,

"COUGH! AUUUGH!"

"WAAAAH!"

Gajeel proclaimed that he was dying,

"I'M DYING!"

And…

"You guys lose!" Natsu grinned cheekily as he took another load of cinnamon.

"HOW CAN YOU LIKE IT?" Lucy yelled at him from the kitchen, "IT BURNS!"

"Exactly why I can like it." Said Natsu, filled with pride.

"Hold…on…" Gray spoke between gulps, "Crazy…Pyro…"

Everyone put the pieces together. They approached the Fire Dragon Slayer with angry and murderous looks.

"NATSU!"

A/N: Anyone else know what happened? *shifty eyes*
