When Animate Spell leaves the battlefield, enchanted card's owner sacrifices it unless they cast it.

While resolving Animate Spell’s last ability, the spell is cast from the battlefield. As it moves to the stack, it stops being a creature. Its controller must pay its costs if they wish to cast it.
Use the mana value of the spell to determine the power and toughness of the creature it becomes. For a spell with {X} in its mana cost, use the value chosen for X to determine its mana value.
If the creature leaves the battlefield before or at the same time as Animate Spell, it can’t be cast.
