Babbling Gargoyles - Sa13+ These are the true stories of the gargoyles that guard the headmaster's office at Hogwarts. Names and places have not been changed to protect anyone! The twist is that their stories are about SS Hogwarts! So anything and everything that happens in our version of Hogwarts (Belle's and Cooper's) will end up here.
This is a interactive fan fic! I welcome any Professor or staff member at Belle's or Cooper's to post or edit my posts to interact with the gargoyles. I just ask that you keep their same spirit that I have created!
If any student wants to be involved personally other than the ones I mentioned just PM with your post and I will post it!
Please enjoy!

Chapter 1
It slowly opened its eyes. “Oh no, I’m still here” She thought as she blinked her heavy stone eyes a few times and looked over at her sister. “Wake up you block head.” Hyleas called to her sister. “Another day.” She sighed as she watched the few early rising students heading toward the Great Hall for breakfast. Her sister Hylia blinked her eyes a few times.
“I could have used a few more minutes sleep.” Hylia said as her great stone mouth yawned which revealed a row of sharpened stone teeth.
“You slept all of crusades. This is a job we have here.” She said importantly as he positioned herself to sit all day and guard the headmistress’s office. That silly Minister Brennen had tried to move them from Rae’s office but a few well placed bites here and there and tearing this fiancé’s dress had sent them all scattering and leaving them alone. She was sore that Hogwarts had been chained and locked, but she was still the guardian over the Headmistress of Hogwarts and Mistress Rae still held that position. No matter what her duffer of a brother said or thought about her.
“Ok Alright. No lectures today. My ears are still ringing from the lecture during the black plague. That is quite a feat with stone ears.” She said waving off her sister with a swipe of her stone arm. She groggily pulled herself to attention to start the day. They both turned their heads as her office door opened.
“Good morning to you both.” Mistress Rae greeted them. The both bowed their heads respectfully to her as she fondly ran her hand over the top of both of their heads. “Guard it well.” She commanded before she turned sharply to head to the Great Hall for her breakfast and then off to her classes. They watched her go. Both of them always got sad when she left the office, but it gave them purpose. They were to guard over here and the sanctity of her office and all its secret treasures left behind by all the former headmasters of Hogwarts.
Soon the hall began to fill up with students heading off to class and some heading to snag a few crumbs of breakfast before going off to class. Hyleas spotted the new Hufflepuff Quidditch Capitan striding down the hall. Her red hair was flapping behind her like a super hero cap.
“Good morning Miss Rose.” Hyleas called to her scattered the group of first years that was gossiping in front of her. Amelia lifted a arm in greeting before striding down the hall. They were about to start a conversation when that dreadful unhappy slice of a woman Xylia Wystan came storming down the hall pushing students out of the way. She had pieces of a broken broom stuck to her hand and her backside and Hyleas and Hylia both had to cough back snickers as they came to a screeching halt in front of Mistress Rae’s office.
“Let me inside!” She demanded with a stamp of her foot. “That idiotic half wit broom wrangler destroyed my class!” A few spots of spittle flew from her mouth and landed on Hylia who did her best not to bite the woman’s hand.
They both turned and looked at her.
“The Headmistress is not in.” They told her in unison.
“Is everyone around here stupid?! I did not ask if she were in! I demanded to be let in!” She was gripping the stuck broom handle in her hand so hard her knuckles were white.
“Well see that is a problem. No one is permitted inside while the HeadMistress is out without prior approval from the Headmistress.” Hylia explained
“And she did not leave any instructions with us to let anyone in her office. You are welcomed to take the matter up with her.” Hyleas offered. Xylia exploded and a string of very unclean words burst from her mouth. The gist of her outburst was Professor Vindictus was a half wit jock, Hyleas and Hylia were left over relics from the Stone Age and all the students at Belles were uncouth hooligans that should be packed off to live with the boys. She stormed off down the hall to find Mistress Rae.
“Does dial clean out stone ears?” Hyleas whispered as soon as they were sure she was at a safe distance. They both roared with laughter from deep in their enchanted stone bellies. This was going to be a good day after all. |
