Some fresh air was good. And since it wasn't too cold yet, Peyton decided to bring her gargoyle out to the courtyard. Taking Giles out of his box she set him down and withdrew her wand. She wasn't sure as to what trick she wanted it to perform. There were just so many, but she wasn't sure if he could do them.

Well, it was time to put it to practice. "Piertotum Locomotor!" she said. "Do five front flips and four back flips."

The gargoyle's figure trembled, then it bent forward and flipped forward. Again. Again. Again. And again. Peyton watched with glee. She was waiting for it to do the backward flips she had instructed it to do, but the gargoyle just flinched and froze in spot.

Awwwwwww!

The fourteen year old picked up the gargoyle and put him back in its box. Maybe they both needed a larger place to move around.
