Authors Notes: It's been a while since I've seen "Princess Tutu". I recently watched the series and I remembered why I hated the ending so much! Yes, I am a AhiruxFakir fan and when I watched the ending I was upset! So, I decided to write a Fanfiction for the first time in probably 8 years. I use to write a lot of Sailor Moon/Gundam Wing crossovers and made music videos so here I am…writing again! Hope you enjoy!
P.S. I DO NOT own Princess Tutu.
~Prologue~
Once upon a time, there was a duck who dreamed about becoming a princess, to live in a village where there was dancing, music, parties, and happiness. But most of all, the duck wanted to be with a knight whom she loved. It saddened the duck to see how she couldn't be a girl or share her thoughts to the world. The duck longed to be a princess, however, a mysterious sorcerer encountered the duck who was willing to make her wish come true. Desperate to be a girl, the duck gave in to a price she was willing to pay. She was only allowed to be a duck by day, and a girl by night. The only way the duck was able to remain a human forever was to find a young man who will remain faithful to her, and vow eternal love. However, not all stories have a happy ending.
Sun beamed down onto the beautiful lake where a happy duck splashed around in the water. Under a tree, a boy with black hair that was tied back, who had soft green eyes with a mysterious look, watched the duck from the shore as he wrote down sentences on his paper. He would glance to make sure the duck was safe and wasn't in any harm. He looked over to see how happy the duck was to be in the warm sun, yet cooling off in the water. He gave a slight smirk, it made him happy that the duck was happy. His attention went down to his pen and paper to continue to write.
On the outside, the duck appeared to be happy, but on the inside she longed for one thing. From the water, the duck looked at the boy lost in a daze, "Oh Fakir, if only I could be a girl again…just for one day to be with my friends, dance ballet, and be with you." Thought the Duck. The ducks eyes began to water as a tear rolled down her yellow feathery cheek. It was a long journey, but Mytho had his heart back and had Rue, Princess Tutu's work was done. The story was complete, but not for the duck. Although from the beginning the duck had strong feels for a Prince who once lost his heart, she helped him by gaining back the pieces. Through out that dark adventure, her heart developed feelings for Fakir. Sure he was rude, mysterious, always putting her down, and keeping to himself. On the outside he just appeared to be a short-tempered bully, but there was a soft, sensitive side deep down inside that the duck cared for. That night when she saw Fakir crying was when she saw his true colors.
"I know I'm just a duck but is it selfish of me to want to be a girl again? I know it wasn't meant for me to be human but I just miss everyone so much, especially being able to talk to Fakir. I want to be a girl, I wish I could be a girl and Princess Tutu!" thought the duck, She looked over watching Fakir writing and how she hoped he would someday figure out how he could turn her into a girl once again. When she saw Fakir writing, it made her smile.
"I believe in you Fakir, if you can write an ending to defeating the Raven, then I know you can change me into a girl once again."
Fakir set his pen down and took a break from writing; he leaned his head back against the tree and looked over towards the duck. They both got caught in a stare and quickly turned away blushing.
"Great, she saw me looking" thought Fakir. "Why do I care though? It's not like she's human."
That was the problem, she wasn't the ditzy, irresponsible, big mouth school girl that he knew. He would question himself why he was so attracted to her. It was probably because she had a big heart, cared for others, and was filled with love. Something that he never had or felt until he met her, she did change him. He thought back of the times where she was Princess Tutu and leaped out of Drosselmeyer's grave, how they hugged for the first time or when he danced with her last before turning back into a duck. How he wanted to hold her again, in his arms. Talk to her, go to school with her, just stay by her side forever. In a way he was but it just wasn't the same. He was taking care of a duck. Fakir then picked up his pen and continued to write again.
"Don't worry Duck, I'll write a story for you like I always have. I'll figure out how to turn you back into a girl."
