At home I got the power to turn into whatever animal I touched. There's... a time limit, though. I went over the time limit and got stuck. I got the power back later, but with a hawk as my 'normal' form. So... unless I wanted to give up that power, I had to stay like that.

... But it's okay. Being a bird isn't that bad. I can still talk, though it's mind to mind rather than out loud.
