Since Fakir is the descendant of Drosselmeyer is the only one had left, Autor reminds him of who he was due to the same bloodline as Drosselmeyer and inherited his powers. He soon tells him about the Marchen Kraft or the Power of Fairytales which both Fakir and Drosselmeyer had inherited this ability to turn stories they wrote into reality.
Ahiru was curious about their powers of writing and Autor tells her that Drosselmeyer was a tale-spinner who was able to manipulate the whole town even after his death. Their knowledge about the Marchen Kraft is meager and this power is far beyond their control and knowledge and it has many questions with no answers. As Autor leave, Ahiru begins to question herself since Autor didn't know when she became a human and she wanted to become a human being to fulfilled her dreams into reality or it is because of their strong bond between her and Fakir.

Once Fakir decided to face Columbine in a sword fight, Tutu stops him from doing so and telling him that she doesn't want him to get hurt anynore. They were later confronted by Columbine who finally knows Fakir's role as a tail-spinner, much to Tutu's shock. As the moon fairy Luna unveiling itself to see who can obtained him from both Princess Tutu and Columbine. And both ballerinas are chasing each other to get it. With Fakir's assistance, Tutu succeeds in obtaining the moon fairy and Columbine lost.
The next day, Princess Tutu visited Fakir at his apartment despite his annoyance over getting disturbed into his sleep.

The two had a date together and they made a romantic ballroom dance during their date. Fakir confesses his love to her when he and Ahiru are alone together. She leaves and thinking about her strong feelings with him, she was soon hypnotized by a disguised Ivan as an exorcist marksman who told her that Fakir is very dangerous and a manipulator, But it was disrupted by an elegant young man who snapped his fingers and frees Ahiru from his hypnosis. Meanwhile, an unnamed Fairy Prince who was originally a love interest to Princess Tutu who was completely unaware that it was Ahiru's alter-ego and she had already with someone else.

Autor clearly explains to him about his family lineage and Fakir also remembers how he uses his powers as a child to write fairytales by luring the Ravens into him. Both reality and story didn't mixed well as his parents were killed from the Raven's talons. If he was raised as a tail spinner, this may prevented his parents from getting killed due to the alterations of his writing to make stories. Meanwhile, both Claudia and Ivan finally dissolves their alliance after she learns that Ivan is one of the Bookmen being recruiited by Sinclair. Once the story book ended, Claudia decided to return back to Paris and immediately rejects Ivan's help who finally showed his sinister side.

Following this, Claudia plays as Cinderella in a ballet dance in Pas de Deux along with a male student who played as Prince Charming until it strikes at midnight and the curtains are now close, ending the scene. Both Claudia and Ahiru are later seen at the dormitory are speaking each other in their respective beds at the same room, remembering their performances on stage. Ahiru admires Claudia and her performance as Cinderella, wishing to become like her. Claudia tells her that she will become a princess. Then, Ahiru asking Claudia after she was spotted by her who went somewhere in town which Claudia reveals that she went to her sister Heidi's grave. Ahiru then thinks about how Heidi had possibly died and stating that she may be alive somewhere. The next day, Ahiru met up with Ivan who introduced himself and wants to speak with her privately. With that, Ivan questions Ahiru after seeing the blue pendant on her necklace, if the blue pendant was created by a tail spinner which is Fakir, much to Ahiru's comical shock and surprise. Ivan also shows Ahiru a talisman disguised as a monocle to protect himself from tail spinners and can sense magic which is why he sensed Ahiru's blue pendant because it was her main source of magical power to transform herself into Princess Tutu. Ahiru was disoriented as she thought of how Ivan knew about Fakir as a tail spinner and Ivan convinced her to join him, stating he was not an enemy. Ahiru refused to join him and Ivan tells her that if she changed her mind, she can speak to him anytime but warns Fakir to stay away from Columbine. As Ivan was about to leave, Ahiru is left speechless and couldn't think what she can do next. She eventually discovers a stone fairy, leading her to find it. But her mission to get the stone fairy was sensed by Ivan who wants to know where she went and realizing that Ahiru and Princess Tutu are one of the same. Ahiru transforms into Princess Tutu to find the stone fairy. And meanwhile, Fakir is with Autor and sensing Tutu's presence and decided to help her but Autor stops him and let him stay, telling him that Princess Tutu can get the fairy of her own.
As soon as Princess Tutu found the stone fairy at the roof of the houses within the walls of Gold Crown town, she was confronted by Columbine who also seeks for the fairy. Both girls eventually compete for the stone fairy and Tutu transforms into her Lunar form while Columbine also transforms to her dark form within her gothic and arabic appearance. It was revealed that Autor warns Fakir not to face a fellow tail spinner and Fakir has reasons to use his power as a tail spinner to protect Ahiru and no one gets in his way. As the two girls faced each other to get the fairy, it was found by Ivan. The stone fairy introduced herself as Solina that represents as the fairy of the sun and fire asking the two girls to perform the Pas de Deux. This is where Princess Tutu discovers that Ivan was Columbine's partner upon she introduced him. Despite Fakir being Ahiru's real partner, the unnamed Fairy Prince makes his appearance for the second time, claiming to be Princess Tutu's partner, convincing Tutu to dance together which she accepts.
Upon the Fairy Prince's arrival, Columbine had sensed his presence stating that it was very interesting and Solina tells them to dance the Pas de Deux. Ahiru tries to think about Ivan being sided with Columbine as Princess Tutu, while questioning his alliance to Columbine and how he follows her around and also warns her to keep Fakir away from Columbine. She noticed that the confrontation between the two tail-spinners is a taboo and realizing that Columbine is a second tail-spinner. Tutu decided to compete them in order to get Solina after her decision not to question about their alliance and she will do this for the sake of Fakir. Despite getting berated by both Ivan and Columbine, Tutu convinces the fairy prince to help her compete them in a dance and hoping she will talk to him after this. She tells the unnamed prince that they need to focus on winning over Solina which he accepts. It was an emotional and intense dance as both Ivan and Columbine are gracefully dance passionately. Both the unnamed fairy prince and Princess Tutu also doing the same. Ahiru as Princess Tutu in her thoughts to Fakir not to come with her, remembering the times about Columbine had kept her secret and not bidding her powers against him and she felt the ominous feeling that this foreshadows their confrontation of two tail-spinners. She begs Fakir not to challenge Columbine. However, Fakir had already made up his mind by facing Columbine since he was the descendant and last heir to Drosselmeyer's power and declaring himself as the Alpha spinner of Golk Krone. As the couples continues to dance, The Fairy Prince whispers his love to Tutu and without her memories, he decided to be with her and start over and taking her to the Fairy Kingdom to live happily. With this, Solina had chosen both Tutu and the Fairy Prince and she obtains the fairy of the sun. Upon reverting back to their original transformed state, Columbine congratulates Tutu for obtaining the fairy. Columbine now facing the Fairy Prince since she was the second tail-spinner, she reveals herself as the Prince's creator, Columbine also unveils the Fairy Prince's name was Prince Hylash from a story she had written as a kid where both Tutu and him became lovers, telling him to recall his real memories in the book she had written. Ivan tells Columbine that they need to leave but she refused and telling him that he should leave while she stays here. Columbine also tells Hylash that he was pulled out of the story by a mishap and knowingly he came out being incomplete with shattered memories and was able to remember the fragments of his beloved princess who was left in the book. Columbine also reveals to Hylash that Princess Tutu he had seen is not the one he fell in love with and she was just another incarnation of Princess Tutu who was created by Fakir. She soon explains to them that the tail-spinners have power to change the natural world with their writings and can dismantle reality and rebuild it with fantasy and telling Hylash that he belongs in his story and his princess is waiting for him. Because of the entire truth Columbine had told him, Hylash was completely hysterical, and never believes her the whole truth she had spoken to him, much to Tutu's shock. Hylash lashes Columbine out to think she was a liar to keep him and Tutu apart and never mistaken as someone else and proclaiming she was his true love. Seeing her character was getting out of hand, Columbine summons a stick which causes a magic spell to knock Hylash down into the ground, immobilized. Columbine worriedly tells him that wandering in their world will only make him miserable, asking him if he wants to chase after a false love. Hylash answered her question that he wanted Tutu to attain true love. Tutu remembers about Prince Siegfried who is pure and loves everyone equally and is unable to love one person above everyone else (Since Siegfried is already with Rue at his own world in his castle) while in Hylash's case, he chose Tutu as his one and only and he loves her unconditionally with all of his heart forever.
