At this point, I'm pretty sure I'm going to graduate regardless." She laughed a little then stood back while Reese performed the spell.
A few moments later, her friend was sporting a mighty fine looking monkey arm. "Very good, Reese! A monkey arm suits you well," she said with a laugh. She nodded when Reese mentioned changing her arm back to normal. Raising her wand and pointing it towards the monkey arm, Anna spoke the incantation. "Homini Arm!" She lowered her wand and watched while the brown fur slowly grew smaller and smaller, finally disappearing for good and revealing Reese's normal arm. "All done!"
"Okay, my turn! Let's see...oh, oh! I know!" she said, raising her wand. With a little giggle, she turned her wand in the direction of her nose. In her mind, she pictured a little waddling duck, quack, quack, quacking with it's long, orangey beak. "Bestiar Mouth!" she called out. Her normal nose started to stretch, and a few minutes later she was wearing the same beak she'd pictured the little duck having. She opened the beak and looked over at Reese. "Quack!" Translation: "You're turn to do the reverse spell."
Reese raised her eyebrow. Did Anna just say the monkey arm suited her? She looked down at her arm and shrugged her shoulders. "I don't think it does. It's ugly looking," she admitted. "I think I like my original arm. You know, the one I was born with." She tapped her foot on the sand as she waited for Anna to say the incantation and when she did, her arm started tingling as it transfigured back into her original arm. "Thanks," she said. She moved her arm a little bit to make sure it would move properly. You never know it transfiguring your arm would mess up your bones or anything.
She stood there as Anna pointed her wand at her nose. What in the world was this girl doing? In a matter of seconds, that question was answered. Now, standing before her, was her friend who had a duck's beak on her face. Haha. It was a funny sight. She giggled when she quaked at her. "I'm sorry. I don't understand duck," she said. "But, I'll transfigure you back now." She pointed her wand at her friend's beak and said, "Homini Mouth." She moved her wand away from Anna and watched as the beak went away and Anna's nose and mouth came back.
"Now, since that is all over and done with. I have something to tell you," she said. She placed her wand back inside of her pocket and glanced back at her arm for a moment as she waited for Anna to talk.
