Ariella listened as the professor gave all the instructions. After copying down some notes on her parchment, she replayed them in her mind and repeated the incantation over and over again. "Stat-UA HAB-itum." It sounded right. Then, she practiced the wand movement. Okay. Here goes nothing, she thought to herself. She picked up the paper in her hand and held it in front of her. "Statua Habitum!" she said firmly, drawing out the syllables of UA and HAB while tracing the square near her paper.

She watched as the paper she was holding transformed into what looked like a picture frame. No, it was more like a deformed picture frame that was run over by a bus. "Reverto!" she said quickly as the frame transformed back into a piece of paper. Ariella supposed it was because of her square. Now that she thought about it, it was much more like a rectangle.

"Statua Habitum!" she said again, carefully tracing the square. A gold picture frame appeared in front of her. It had a few dents in it, but not nearly as bad as the last time. "Reverto!" she exclaimed. And now, she could try again.
