What I remember before I turned into a bird was that I was in Rio de Janeiro for a couple of weeks on a vacation. I can not remember how it happened but one night, I fell asleep in my hotel room, and when I woke up, I was alone in a rainforest just outside the city, in the middle of the night, in a completely different form. When I found out what happened to me, I was both shocked and elated.
I had been dreaming of becoming a bird that was like the characters in Rio, and I had gotten my wish. As I looked at myself in the moonlit reflection of a nearby lake, a cold breeze blew on me, and I began shivering. I wrapped my new wings around myself, trying to warm up, which worked for a little bit, until I ended up falling into the lake, which was fortunately shallow enough for me to keep my head above the water.
I got out, and tried shaking some of the water off, but it just seeped into my feathers and made me colder, and my shivering got worse. I never liked being cold, whether it be from winter temperatures, or rain. It always gave me the shivers, and I was feeling them in spades in that moment.
Until I felt something wrap around my body from behind me. Then I heard a voice say, "You must be freezing." I turned around to see Blu, looking at me with a concerned look on his face.
