After recovering her strength, Reiko was finally able to transform. She was in her human form, nosing about the case, looking for her hoshi.
She was naked, as she had to transform without clothes.
She found the hoshi protected by talismans, and she began to decode and break them using her magical power.
Reiko swiftly maneuvered through the talismans. They were clearly molded by someone with great magical talent; this Newt person was a formidable foe.
So engrossed was she with her task that she did not notice that Newt was behind her.
"Who are you? What are you doing? Where are your clothes?" Newt said all of this very quickly, then put his jackets on her body.
"I am Reiko, the great and powerful Fox of Fortune." Reiko said. "I seek the hoshi you possess. I am no pet, Scamander-san and I abhor your treatment as such; though...I did enjoy the star candies."
Newt was taken aback; none of his creatures had a human form, let alone such a lovely one.
He took the hoshi from around his neck and placed it in her hands. "You are free to come and go as you please. I am only honored I was able to be in your presence, if ever so briefly."
Newt spoke humbly, not wanting to offend the creature.
"You are forgiven; I think I shall stay and aid you."
