*In the middle of the night Iris wakes and sees Hanna sleeping. She smiles slightly*
*She gently puts Hanna in the bed, covers her with the blankets and moves to make a nest on the floor but before she does that she goes into the bathroom where she catches sight of herself in the mirror and screams in horror*
*Her skin is peeling away revealing tiny scales underneath it and her head has stretched and elongated grotesquely as it's mid-transformation*
*Her wings are still not fully grown but are large and leathery behind her back and she's sprouted a long tail that drags along the floor*


*Mergoux grits her teeth, screws up her courage and makes a leap to the nearest tree, as she grasps at the branches they snap under her and she begins to crash to the ground*
