Airey was bouncing in his seat as the student continued to perform. His jaw DID drop slightly when the woman took 30 points from Miss Fischer, but not before he BURST into a fight of laughter over her joke. Sweet solstice her and Firth needed to chill ooooooooooooout.

"BRAVA, MISS FISCHER!" he applauded. "10 points for making me laugh."

Oh oh oh ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh! STAR WARS! Airey was out of his seat now and singing again.

"Kiss a Wooooooookieeeeeee, kick a drooooooooooid! Fly the Falcoooooooon through an aaaaaaaasteroooooooooid! Till the princeeeeeeeess is annoooooooooyed! This is spaceships, It's monsters, It's Star Wars, We love it!" he sang to the tune of a classic muggle film Raiders of the Lost Ark's main theme. Sounded even BETTER when it was Star Wars related. Not to mention that the Slytherin captain's gargoyles looked even more awesome performing with his singing in the background. Yep.

OH BON BONS! "PICK ME PICK ME!" he said while waving both arms up and down a few times before opening his mouth and pointing in. The only bad part was that he had to sort of stop singing. Sort of.

"Aaah a Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, aaah a aaaaaaaaaah!"

OH OH OH! Floooooooooooowers! Pebbles likes flowers! Airey tried to get Miss Wheatborn's gargoyle's attention without moving from his spot so that Mr. Odessa's could throw him a bon bon. All the while he was still trying to sing his Star Wars song.

West.... paused a little and eyed Flammy for a good 10 seconds before jumping back into things. "Professor Flamsteed it is. Are you READY sir? You LOOK ready. Because WE are ready and..." He looked at the gargoyle. "Gargoyle, on a count of three, toss a bonbon in Professor Flamsteed's mouth." The gargoyle continued to juggle, apparently not reacting to the command, but that was as it should be.

"1.... 2.... 3!" West counted out, and sure enough, on three, the gargoyle tossed one of the bonbons he'd been juggling right up in the air on a trajectory toward Flamsteed's open mouth.

Without missing a beat, the gargoyle continued juggling the remaining three bonbons.

"Good bonbon, right professor?" West called out with a grin on his face.

BLINK.

Dylan shouldn't have been that surprised when Professor Flamsteed jumped out of his seat and started singing...loudly, too. He knew this man...Singing and general excitement was just how the Professor rolled. It was cool, though...Dylan could also roll with this. In fact, he paused the happenings of his show and regaled that particular fan!song with him...Star Wars dorks UNITE!

"Cooooooooome and heeeeeeelp me, Obi-Wan!...X-wing fighteeeeer and a blaster soooome....Dance with Ewooooks, oh what fun! This is spaceships, it's monsters, it's Star Wars, WE LOVE IT!" Dylan even fistpumped with it. He was beyond stoked that his presentation was being well received. PARTY ROCKIN' IN THE CLASSROOM...

He may or may not have even had his gargoyles stop what they were doing and also fistpump. You know....to celebrate success. The dragon did not stop, though...and shot flames at the back of Goon and Gargy's heads...The two unsuspecting gargoyles turned back immediately...obviously feeling the heat...and both ran...

HA!

"Will you two keep it together? Good job, Ragarous." He reached a finger and petted at the dragon's head. Dylan quite liked him...Surely Professor Bellaire would allow him to keep it after the lesson? As a graduation gift? Maybe?

Right...He needed to get back to things.

This was it, time for the real tricks. Ella gave Bob a little smile as she set the tight rope up over a small container of water. The blonde then turned her attention to the crowd.

For our first trick, Bobby G will daringly attempt to cross this tightrope, avoiding plunging into the depths of the icy water below! She shivered for added emphasis, hugging her arms around herself as she eyed her gargoyle sympathetically. Thank goodness Ella's gran was into the dramatic arts because this feigning emotion thing wasn't for the blonde. She felt phony doing it but this was for a good cause so she'd keep up the dramatics, dramatics she'd learned to perfect over time. "Alright, Bob, walk across the rope."

And as the gargoyle walked shakily on the rope, the sixteen year old began humming Also Sprach Zarathustra. It made for a very exciting moment, she thought.

When he neared the other side of the rope, she paused dramatically in her humming and held her breath, would he make it?

Pauseeeeeeeeeee.

YES!

"He did it, ladies and gents!"

After the loss of thirty Gryffindor points, the show just kept getting "better." Erik had no idea what was going on between the Astronomy professor and the Slytherin captain, but he was more grateful than ever to have taken a lean against the back wall. Those miniature laser swords looked like real weapons. How weird that they would be allowed in school...

He applauded politely when Ms. Wheatborn's gargoyle finished its trick, Mr. Odessa's successfully landed a bon-bon in Flamsteed's mouth, and Ms. Bishop's walked a thin rope. That was talent.

"Fascinating!" Ivy cheered, clapping her hands together. Never in all her years of charming had she charmed a gargoyle to tight rope or throw bonbons into someone's mouth. And if she weren't in such a pleasant yippy skippy mood she probably wouldn't care, but for right now, this was BRILLIANT.

She ooooo-ed and ahhhh-ed as each student went, very pleased and impressed with all their talent.

Oh my.

Theo watched all of his friends and classmates begin the show with their gargoyles. Dang, they were on fiyaahhh... And totally distracting Theo from his own performance, which he REALLY did not feel like doing right now. Especially with all the professors watching, gahh, how embarrassing. Theo got his gargoyle out of his bag and held it with his sweaty palms. He hadn't planned all this COOL stuff like everyone else had.

Really, all his gargoyle did was a couple of tragic dance moves.

THINK, THEODORE, THINK.

He danced on the spot as he waited for his turn, and decided that he really needed the bathroom. He stole a look over at Professor Bellaire hoping that she would save him somehow. But no one was saving him. No one.

Anyway... the Slytherin pulled out his wand and decided that a moment's practice would do him a world of good. "Pie-pier... totum..." Nope, the last part had vanished from his mind. Theo's breathing got heavy suddenly, and he briskly wandered to a corner of the room, hoping not to be seen... for the whole entire lesson.

N'aw, Professor Knox was being a really good audience member! The cheering helped loads cause it made Ella just a bit less nervous. She hated the thought of boring people and so if she could just entertain one person, she'd feel MUCH better about this whole gargoyle doing tricks business.

"Next up, Bobby G is going to attempt to balance on a ball as it rolls!" The blonde announced with enthusiasm, showcasing the little version of the "Rolling Globe" that circus performers sometimes tried to balance on. She then placed it down and carefully placed Bob on top of it. "Alright Bob, balance."

Bob the gargoyle gave a little nod in acknowledgement and that was Ella's cue. The blonde gently poked the ball so that it started rolling very slowly towards the opposite end of her circus ring, Bob balancing on top of it as it moved. His little gargoyle legs adjusted as the ball turned, working to keep him upright. Ella hurried to the spot she'd stop the ball, not wanting Bob to fall out of the ring. That wouldn't be good.

After stopping the ball, the blonde BEAMED and said, "Taaa-daaaa!"

Woooahhh......

Everyone was doing so well! Kace didn't know if he could match up against them. His circus performance would probably be lame but he was gonna try. He got up out of his seat, pushed away his fears and got up in front of the audience.

"Okay Kace....you can do this." he told himself. He took a deep breath and cleared his throat and said...

"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! CAN I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE! ME AND MY SIDEKICK BLAZE WILL BE DOING A FEW TRICKS FOR YOU TODAY." He smiled at them all. He wasn't so nervous anymore. He could do this. He saw everyone else do it.

He got his gargoyle out of the box with his hands shaking. But he placed him down and said with a swish of his wand "Piertotum Locomotor!" and then he gargoyle sprang to life. He gave a huge sigh of relief. "EVERYONE GIVE BLAZE A WARM WELCOME!" he gestured to him. "Wave Blaze..." he said under his breath. Then the gargoyle waved to the audience.

"NOW FOR HIS FIRST TRICK. HE WILL DO SOME BACKFLIPS FOR YOU ALL." he smiled. Then he commanded Blaze to do a backflip. He smiled and then it backflipped and even more backflipped. Kace was smiling. He was glad this was all working out....

His next trick will have the audience on their feet.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, was why Airey Flamsteed was her favorite.

Twenty points now. Still way too excessive for point loss from a joke, but Alice would let it go, because Bellaire was a certified nutcase and no one could really blame her for being off her rocker. Aireyhead got HUGE SMILES and you-are-my-favoritest-ever looks, and then she continued. Because those points she'd lost, she could still earn them back with her excellent show, couldn't she? Of course she could.

"Ahem." After that awkward bit of Bellaire craze, she needed quick recovery. "Gargoyle, do a cartwheel. Then a backflip." Simple enough. Very simple, just to start out with before she got to the real show. "And keep doing gymnastics until I tell you to stop, okay?" Good lil' statue. Alice waited and watched the hunk of stone make its way across the stage before hopping over to the dragon, which was awaiting her command.

"Dragon, go set the gargoyle's vest on fire."

Meanwhile, she had more setting up to do. Watch the statue violence, okay, audience? Not Alice.

Now was time to bring the little rock!dragon to life, yeah? Ella smiled and said quietly, "Draconifors," as she made a slashing movement with her wand at the rock. Suddenly, the rock was changed into an adorable but dangerous little dragon. N'aww. "Piertotum Locomotor!" And the little guy breathed a few flames before blinking at the crowd. "Ladies and gentlemen, I am pleassssed to introduce another addition to our actttttt, Drew the Dragonnnn!" Applause were always appreciated, y'know. "Don't let his size fool you, folks. He's a ferocious foe!"

BEAM! Ferocious and cute. Had she mentioned how excited she was about having got a dragon!rock? Badger was excited.

"Now watch and be amazed as Bobby G attempts to lift Drew the Dragon using nothing but his amazing Gargoyleeee strengthhhhh!"

Ohhhh yeah, this was happening. "Bob, walk over and pick up Drew." And the little gargoyle walked towards the dragon and stared for a moment before picking it up, shakily at first, and then holding it in the air above his head. "Drew, breathe fire." And a little flame shot dramatically from his mouth as the gargoyle continued holding the dragon up. Were they SEEING this?

"Have you everrrr seen strength like this, folks?!"
Impressive stuff, clearly.

Alright, so...

"We're coming to the FINALE, ladies and gents! Are you READY?" Dylan sure hoped they were because this next bit had been carefully planned out and calculated...In fact, it was nice of Professor Flamsteed to step in and do some interactions....Gave the two gargoyles a breather...and Dylan loved that song. So, it was awesome-O.

"Guys, let's focus and get back on track. We're going into the final steps. Take some deep breaths."...because he fully believed that the two had feelings or whatever. It was his show, anyway. He could believe whatever he wanted to. "Ragarous, land and ROAR." The golden-colored dragon quickly did just that, landing gracefully on the table between the two and tilting his head up, flames spewing up into the air some. They weren't big flames or whatever...but it was enough to get the gargoyles attention. "Stay stationary, but attack the two with fire."

He quickly looked towards the semi-frozen pair, a bright smile in place. "Defeat the dragon, Jedi and Sith Lord. You have FIVE minutes. GO."

Gi Abi Goon and Darth Gargy sprung into action at once, dancing among the flames in an attempt to get anywhere close to the dragon, Ragarous. Dylan eyed the scene with meticulous eyes, making sure nothing got too wild and out of control between the three. It wasn't as controlled an environment as they were used to...and no chances were being taken. Darth Gargy struck out at the dragon first, his light saber clicking against its shiny body. Seeing as they were just plastic, though...No real damage could be done. Gi Abi Goon, however, had dropped his light-saber and was somersaulting closer, moving his hands out to lash at his foe. It was interesting to see the different attack styles with just a command to attack and no specifics.

The dragon carried on with his fire-spraying, though...a clear pattern to his spurts. Gargy, who was watching his pseudo!comrade, seemed to catch onto what Goon was doing and also discarded of his Jedi!weapon, springing to kick at the dragon. With the both of them attacking physically, lashing out, the dragon started to get pushed back...almost to the edge...

"Who will emerge the victor?!"

As if to punctuate just WHO the winner was, the two gargoyles seemed to lock eyes, nodding?, and then both kicked at the golden-dragon one last time. With a mighty tumble, Ragarous tipped backwards...moving into a free-fall as he fell off the edge of the table...racing towards the ground...

BLINK.

Naturally, Dylan snatched him up before he could hit the ground and break. His instructions had been clear to the dragon. Land. He wouldn't have flew without Dylan saying so again...

"Well, then...THE JEDI AND SITH LORD WIN!" The Captain started applauding vigorously, amused and pleased that he'd been able to complete the assignment with style, flash, and originality. Yay for him...

"I hope you all enjoyed that...as much as I did. This is Dylan Montmorency signing off!"

Watching as her dragon began flapping it's little wings and hovering over her cartwheeling gargoyle, Alice soon turned away to prepare the rest of her circus. She wasn't too keen on it any more, seeing as what she saw as creativity, Bellaire would probably see as a mess and another opportunity for point loss. But she was still going to attempt things, because.. no other options, okay? This was all she'd planned.

Grabbing a tiny cup from her pile of materials in the corner of the stage, she pulled out her wand and tapped it with a quick "Magnus Centrum." That.. would make it bigger on the inside, right? Expansion charm and stuff?

Now the cup was expanded internally, which meant things would be able to land in it without breaking it, correct? Instead of putting away her wand, Alice cast another quick spell. "Aguamenti" was the next one, and with a quick flick of her wand, water began to fill the cup. She waited until there was probably enough to perform in it before casting a Finite. Finally, she set up a miniature ladder with a little lock of wood sticking over the edge, meant to serve as a jumping platform.

Ta-daaaah. Were they ready? Were they?

More importantly, was her gargoyle's clothing on fire yet?

Marigold spoke up again.

"OKAY FOLKS! NEXT WE WILL HAVE MY GARGOYLE HERE WALK ON HIS HANDS!" She turned to the stone figure and clapped her hands once. The gargoyle immediately did a handstand-and toppled over. Whoops. Marigold glanced at the audience and started humming a circusy tune to try and get the gargoyle in the mood. Meanwhile, her gargoyle tried again and succeeded. It walked around the arena, hopping on alternating hands. Then it got back upright. "Can I have a hand for THAT! Next my gargoyle will juggle-with its feet!" She hoped it would work.

Then it was her turn. By then Sarah had formulated a plan in her mind, and at the back of the room,, in the corner she had worked making a handful of supplies she would need. Transfiguring was generally easy for her, yet she had to do the magic non verbally which created a kind of difficulty. Sarah loved challenges though, so by the time she was called she had done all that she could. She walked up to the front and displayed her tent. It was a sunny yellow striped with royal purple. It was looked very bright and happy, which was what Sarah had wanted.

She opened her satchel and used quick spell work to maneuver things around. The first thing that she paid particular attention to was Greg. She had to dress him, yet she had forgotten to while waiting. She slipped on a white shirt, over it was a scarlet waistcoat with gold buttons going down the front. There was tight white paints as well... he looked quite striking. She put him to the side, and pulled out a rock from her bag. "Draconifors" she casted and the rock transformed into a dragon. Sarah cleared her throat and walked to the front and began to address the crowd., holding Dragon on her hand.

"Welcome to my show" Sarah said, "well... actually it is more of Greg and Draco's show..." maybe she should have prepared her speech before hand or something, because this was not as polished as she would have liked. "As much as I like having fun and amusing myself, I like to add a deeper message to all fun, making it educational or meaningful".

With her speech completed she took out her wand and activated Dragon with the Piertotum Locomotor spell. i"Draco, fly in a figure of eight" and her dragon did so. "To get in, one paid money to support Hogwarts. A dragon needs wings in order to fly, so too, witches and wizards needs education in order to fly and thrive"

So Blaze was all done doing his backflips. Time to do his next trick.....

"MY NEXT TRICK LADIES AND GENTLEMEN IS I WILL MAKE BLAZE JUMP THROUGH ONE HOOP!" he know it probably sounded lame but it wouldn't be. He got his wooden box and pointed his wand at the box and said "Circo Anulum!" with a circular motion then a point with his wand. He remembered to keep his wrist firm. He even pictured the colors green and blue. He hoped it worked.

Then the box turned into a circus ring right before his eyes. Now THAT was cool! His tricks were doing well! Alright now time to talk....

"NOW BLAZE WILL JUMP THROUGH THIS CIRCUS RING!" he said showing his blue and green circus ring. "Alright Blaze...JUMP!" he commanded and then Blaze ran on all fours and jumped through. Yes Blaze was listening that was a good sign. Kace was swinging the hoop around and Blaze jumped through it while it was moving. Now that was getting impressive.

"NEXT BLAZE WILL DO HIS FAVORITE ACT.....JUGGLING!!" Kace said trying to get the audience engaged. He smiled and was using enthusiasm. Kace ran and got some balls from his bin and then gave it to Blaze.

He stood up and the juggled with his hands and jumped and then used...HIS FEET. Kace did not see that coming. He even clapped for him and was now thinking what his next trick will be.

Cassia has been sitting and watching everyone. She had a couple of ideas about what she was going to do but she decided to sit first and see what others were doing. Everyone was doing such a great job, she really was enjoying watching it. but like she then remembered that she wasn't here to watch. Pffffft. So she stood up and waited until no one was on the stage. Her turn, ahem.

She grabbed a gargoyle and sat it on the floor then unholstered her wand. Wait, what was the spell again? She stood there awkwardly with her eyes shut then she remembered! YES! Right! " Piertotum locomotor," she uttered pointing her wand at the object which came to life just after the words left her mouth. She grinned proud by her OWN accomplishment which like everyone just did easily.

She liked succeeding, okay!

Turning to the professors and other students, Cassia composed her grin then spoke, "Me and my partnet," PAUSE. "Which is or who is this gargoyle which I just brought some life in,"Did they see how she did it! They better. "We're going to make a little show I hope you all enjoy," And by that she meant please clap and act amused and awed by whatever she did. Thank you.

Saying that, she skipped over bringing the other stuffs she was going to work with.

It was a hard and tiring job holding the Cruppy in his lap. What was he thinking when he brought him along? Hmm? What if he suddenly wanted to-- OH MERLIN! Feo almost jumped when West threw that piece of candy in the air and Botros frantically grabbed Feo from his midsection. WHEW.

The show went on, the small creature was excitedly barking from time to time fascinated by pretty much everything and dangling his little tongue, his old owner dozed off from time to time but startled awake when there was applause and he applauded along.

Everyone was so good though! From what he'd managed to see so far, anyway.

Bringing a bunch of objects and placing them aside, the snake hopped back to where she was standing near the gargoyle. She wasn't sure if she was going to use all the objects or not. But for now, she grabbed a leaf from the objects and help it up for everyone to see. "I'm going to turn this into a vest." She announced excitedly. They had practiced doing so, last lesson. And she had done some practicing herself. "Folium induant," She said tapping lightly on the leaf and voila! She was holding now a vest. The blond held it even higher for a couple of moments then turned back to the gargoyle.

"Partner," she said to it and it made her think she needed to pick a name. she probably should have thought of that earlier. "He's name is……..Tuny," She just came up with that and it was the on top of her head. She only wished to keep remembering the name. eeeeh. Or maybe they'd forget.

Waving the vest she stepped closer to….Tuny and said, "show them how you can put on this vest," Cassia didn't know if the gargoyle was frowning or if its face was always like that. She chocked the vest at it, "Come on, don't be shy." Yeah she was serious.

Eyeing the Tuny, Cassia had the feeling that he wasn't going to corporate easily so she crouched near it, "Here's a little help," She took the vest and dropped it on its head. So that it had to squirm and wiggle until the vest was on. Hehe.

She rose to her feet and dramatically motioned to the gargoyle, "Ladies and gentlemen, a vested gargoyle." now to the next thing on her show!

Why on earth was there a CRUPPY in here? Annie frowned toward the Ancient Runes professor and frowned toward the transfiguration professor too. Thirty points from Gryffindor was a bit much, wasn't it? This was just a silly little circus show, for crying out loud!

She of course was a perfect guest, applauding politely when the students did their little tricks and sighing in relief when Cambridge seemed to be done with her act at last. What a relief to have that done. Now if only the others would speed it up some... she glanced at her fancy wristwatch to see how much longer they would be stuck in here.

When Alice turned back to her dragon, she was disappointed to see it still circling above the cartwheeling gargoyle, which most definitely wasn't on fire yet. What? Why wasn't it? She scowled in their direction. "Dragon. Come on. Set him on fire now." Her voice came out as a hiss, she had already lost points and needed all the ones from this that she could get, okay? A transfigured rock wasn't messing this up for her.

Finally, the dragon let out a little snort of fire. An extremely tiny bit, but enough to set the gargoyle's itty bitty jester vest on fire. Perfect. "Stop cartwheeling, gargoyle." It was on fire, hadn't it noticed?

Had the audience noticed, too?

Because it was.

Kace forgot his gargoyle needed a little pizazz. He wanted his gargoyle to be dressed up. Kace would get a face palm for that. He ran to his bin to get a leaf while Blaze was still juggling with his feet. He noticed the Runes professor was watching and the...Headmistress? Oh boy...he hoped they liked the show!

"ALRIGHT MY LOVLEY AUDIENCE. I FORGOT TO DRESS UP MY SIDEKICK BLAZE FOR THE SHOW." He needed something to spice things up.

Kace got his leaf out and then was gonna do the spell Folium induant. He hoped he remembered the wand movement. He racked in his brain for like 3 seconds and then got it! It was just a light tap. "I WILL MAGICALLY TURN THIS LEAF INTO...." he began and then said "Folium Induant!" and then the leaf popped into a blue vest. "A BLUE VEST!" Kace smiled to the audience. These spells were getting pretty cool.

He held it out for Blaze. He stood up and put it on. "NOW LOOK A VESTED BLAZE LADIES AND GENTLEMEN." he smiled. Even Blaze paraded around with it on. Like he was something special. He even did a cartwheel to show he can move around with the vest on. Kace chuckled at him. Blaze was a superstar.

Now what was he gonna do for his next trick. Maybe try to have the gargoyle hula hoop? Maybe he could? Kace shrugged and might try it out.

Walking over to where she put the objects earlier, Cassia picked up a rock and a jar and placed them on the floor, then she reached for her wand and pointed it at the rock. Then with a slash of her wand she said, " Draconifors." And the rock turned into a dragon. The snake stepped closer and stood between the dragon and the gargoyle. Then she opened the jar and let the beetles climb out of it. once they did, she pointed with her wand at the insects steadily and spoke the incantation, "Bruchus puga," with that they turned to buttons. She looked up and glanced at the audience. Were they keeping up and all? Hopefully they were enjoying. Well, she didn't see anyone falling asleep which was a good sign.

She picked up a couple of buttons and walked a little bit to the left so that both the dragon and the gargoyle were to her right, "Now! I'm going to toss a button to Tuny and he will toss it to…." She paused thinking of a name to give to the dragon. She really should have thought of the names before this show. Eeeeh. "…To Spyro!" she said remembering her brother's last letter to her. He was talking about dragons and stuff. She just remembered she never finished it. Better do so and owl him back. Later though. Turning to the gargoyle, Cassia held a button up then chocked it. It hit the poor gargoyle right in the face!

Eeeeh. Could have gone better.

She walked around and stood next to the dragon. Hopefully, this would be more successful. More slowly and less higher, Cassia tossed the button and luckily the dragon somehow caught it and threw it away and it was fortunate that it was thrown towards the gargoyle. No need to know about the fact that it was luck. She totally practiced that if anyone asked.

Glad it had worked, the snake threw tossed a button after another and each time the dragon managed to toss it in the gargoyle's direction. She actually suspected that Spyro, the dragon was afraid or something of the buttons so it just wanted to get the buttons away. Hehe. Whatever, as long as it did what it was supposed to do.

Cassia pocketed the rest of the buttons thinking that it woulldn't be a very good idea to freak the dragon out. Not yet at least, she needed to do another stuffs.

"MY GARGOYLE IS ON FIRE," Alice announced loudly. Did they see him? They saw him, right? "His vest is burning. Do you see, folks? All the work of the dragon." Ta-daaah. Extra lucky she'd gotten a rock instead of a muzzle, then, wasn't she, Bellaire? She watched the vest burn for a couple more seconds, intrigued by the flames, before getting back to her act.

Right. The act. "And now, my gargoyle will put out the fire by himself, without assistance, by dousing the flames on his vest." Such a talented little statue, wasn't he? Alice thought so. He got a bit more admiration before she gave her next command.

"Dragon, get down and stop burning things. Gargoyle, climb the ladder."

How long were they going to take?

She flew the dragon around for a bit before speaking again, "this was easy for him, yet now I challenge Draco, to fly through the flaming hoops." She pullled out a hoop from her bag, enlarged it, then duplicated it. Once she had four hoops she sent them up in the air, so they hovered one after the other. "incedio" she casted setting them alight. More wand work and she said "Draco fly through the hoops" and he did so, although rather awkwardy at first, not wanting to get burnt (well, that was what Sarah rationalised it as. Yet as rationalise is really rational lies, the real reason was because Sarah's mind not so clear).

Through each loop he went through, emerging at the other end... on fire. This was not part of the program, as she had charmed him not to catch fire, yet as he did, she just pretended it was part of the program. She calmly took out her wand and extinguished the flames on the dragon and then on the hoops. "the fiery hoops represents milestones in life that Hogwarts helps us through." She could think of a way to explain the fact that at the dragon caught fire until- " superior education, like that I receive at Hogwarts, guides us, making sure we don't get burnt, Unfortunately, in this case Draco messed up yet the idea is still there". Maybe the adults led him astray or something.

Were people actually watching her? She hoped she was not boring them. She was going to move onto Greg anyway then.
