This was something that she wished the most. Though the story of the Prince and Raven was over, there was no way for her to become human, since the Heart Shard necklace that she was wearing is what made her become human. Fakir had tired to write down for her to become human – and that didn't help. /span/p

Duck was trapped in her Duck form, and it of course hurt her, thought part of her was fine. She could deal with being in Duck form, though she wanted Fakir to live his own life as well, and she liked it when he brought her back to the school, and she got to see all her friends – and of course, Mr. Cat was no longer the teacher – though everyone knew that was normal, and to Fakir and Duck it was strange that no one remembered but it was for the best. /span/p

Even though they were the same person. It never made any sense to her that she had to be a klutz when she wasn't Tutu, but she was graceful when she was Tutu. It did help the idea that no one would put two and two together /span/p

She thought it was strange since she saw everything in color. She sat up and saw that she was in a nightgown. She was human. There was a necklace around her neck, this one was yellow – it was the same color has her feathers. She jumped out of bed and of course she fell since it's been a year since she was human.
