  "This lab is owned by Shiniqua Kioko," Luna explained, taking a look around. There were lots of equipments and space in the room they were in. "She was the one who taught me Re-quip magic. She loves doing experiments so she made this. She told me about it so I could go look at it whenever I like.

  "Luna, is that you I hear?" a voice came from all the equipment.

  "Yeah, it's me Shiniqua," Luna called. "I'm with my friends from Fairy Tail."

  A person with long, braided, red hair peeked out from a big pile of metal. She smiled and said, "So these are your friends; nice to meet all of you. And its great to see you again Aimi. You've grown these past few years! Have you mastered your transformation magic already?"

  "Almost," Aimi answered. "But now's not the time for that."

  "What happened to your friend?" Shiniqua suddenly said, looking at Yukino with an alarmed expression on her face.

  "An explosive that makes everyone forget about magic hit her while we were heading here," Daref replied grimly.

  "Well, she should be waking up any time now," Shiniqua went to her desk trying to look for something. "I studied those kind of explosives so I might have something that can help." She continued looking through her drawers and multiple desks.

(Meanwhile at the guild)
  "Ugh. What just happened?" Natsu groaned, trying to stand up. But he felt pain in his stomach and immediately lay back down because of the pain.

  "Nina just punched you in the stomach because you wanted to go battle Grimoire Tail all by yourself," Winterfrost explained, not even looking at him. She was still trying to remind everyone about magic, starting with Erza. Master Mavis was trying to make Master Makarov remember magic first before the other members. Lucy and the rest of Team Natsu appeared to be sleeping in a corner.

  Natsu automatically went over to Lucy and the others. "Lucy! Gray! Are you okay? And do you remember what magic is?" He asked them.

  Lucy's eyelids fluttered open. "What are you talking about Natsu?" she asked sleepily. "And why am I carrying around these keys anyways?"

  Natsu sweatdropped. "It's called gates keys, Luce. It's what you use to open the gate of a celestial spirit and summon them to you."

  "What are celestial spirits?" Lucy asked. Winterfrost facepalmed.

(Shiniqua's lab)
  Shiniqua finally found what she was looking for. It looked like some kind of ancient book that was all dusty and it was written in another language.

  She blew off some of the dust from the book, completely unfazed of the dust like Luna, unlike the others. She opened it and began looking for a specific page, while explaining what the book was to them. "This is an ancient book written in the language of Perlians," Shiniqua explained. "It's the ancient language of the people who used to live in Periwinkle village 400 years ago. I found it years after it was burned in an underground library. Luna helped me translate it, since she seemed to be fluent."

  As she continued to explain, Luna went away to think. Why did Shiniqua say that my village burned 400 years ago? she asked herself, confused. That was when Shiniqua found the page.

  "Hey Luna! Can you translate this for me again?" she called. Luna went over and began translating as soon as Shiniqua pointed out the page. "There is a lost magic that can make people forget about magic, even though they still have it in their bodies," Luna began. "It is called the Forgotten spell because it can make anyone forget about anything as long as it is specified. It can be cast by any person who uses caster magic or cast by the means of objects, like explosions that don't even damage anything, like what happened to Yukino." She paused and glanced at her for a second before continuing.
