Of course Kurumi and Selina had worked like speed-demons, but he was all right with that; after all, they were both in his house and his current team was doing a really good job.
"'Kay, so, I'll make two of the side walls now, and you guys can each make one." Grabbing some more of the wood, he set to it with the Adhaero spell again. The seventh year attached the one wall to the base with another wand-flick and 'Ahd-high-row!', then shuffled over a little to make another wall on the other side.

They needed some type of walls right? Apparently so, because just has he had that thought, Paulie said thats what they had to start working on. "Yeah, on, it." He said, grabbing the wood, and positioning it where he needed it. With a swish of his wand, he said "Adhaero." once more, it failed to work, and it took two more tries to get it to stick. This magic thing was tough!
Turing to Paulie, he asked, "Are we doing the wheels or pull handle next?"
Beezus couldn't help but giggle at her team mates. They were complimenting themselves.
"Boys..you're the best." Because they just where. Heh. They weren't even making her do the difficult stuff. But seriously, the magic that were performing now, the sticking and unsticking charms weren't that easy. In fact, she had a hard time doing it but maybe because they were in a race then she was just feeling more determined.
Finally, their floor was done..and with the help of a little teamwork, they had also managed to get the walls together. Their wagon looked a bit decent now. Except that it still needed a few more parts. And that's what they were going to attend to next.

Just as Kaiden and Beezus finished their side walls, he managed to finish his second one. WHICH meant that they had completed the base and successfully attached all the walls as well! "Lookin' good so far, huh?" Paulie asked his teammates.
"Accio handle," Paulie murmured, as he swished his wand over at the pile of handles that their professor provided. "Hmmm, Kaiden, how about you attach the handle and, Beezus, you and I can each attach two wheels, yeah?" After handing over the handle to Kaiden, he grabbed a wheel. "Adhaero," he spoke the spell and attached the first of the wagon wheels.
Look at that! Harvey's team had won second place. She didn't even had the chance to watch them because she was also preoccupied with making their own wagon. No matter, two from that team were Ravenclaws and that means they've got bonus points now. That was enough for her.
"
Oh. Right.Sure" Beezus told Paulie when he asked her to put the wheels. Uh-oh. She got six wheels and all they needed was four right? Pffft. She was going to get in trouble with that. But if Professor Elwood wasn't going to know, then...maybe she could just return the remaining two later?
Heh. Good idea.
As of now, she was going to attach the wheels. With a swish of her wand, she muttered,
"Adhaero!" And stuck under the cart. Great. One wheel down, three more to go. She shifted into her other side to attach the second wheel when she heard
that.
BLAAAM!
A cart just hit the trees! And...and...GASP! Beezus stood up immediately. "
HOLY QUAFFLE! My best friend's inside that wagon!" Well..because she had been eyeing Indy a while ago, which also meant she knew that she was working with Kimalia, Dylan and Vickers.
She turned to the Head Boy with a worried face. "
Are they going to be alright?" And she needed a confirmation, because if not, then Paulie she was not going to continue attaching those wheels.
