Well at least it was speeding along like a Knight Bus.

For one who had travelled that way before the brunette thought seatbelts were so unnecessary, but she buckled in anyway, because in her most righteous opinion any bus that claimed to be magical that didnt have beds or hot chocolate or toothbrushes had to be one of lesser magic. And she certainly wasnt taking any risks with her welfare on such standards.

And then there were these things falling from the ceiling. What.... she thought she was on a bus? Whats with this airplane safety procedure demo thing?

Grabbing the blue gear and putting them on anyway. Ugh substandard magic bus. What was she thinking?

He found a seat and just looked out the window until the professor said something, "HUH? I CAN'T HEAR YOU?" Was the bus that loud or did his hear just vanish for a moment. Or was playing tricks on them and only moving her lips. Seeing others pull on some odd jacket and gloves he looked around. Was he suppose to use those?

Super confused boy right here...
Ah ... right, she figured someone might ask that question! Where indeed, was the magic in the magic school bus?

"Muggles... have a very different idea of magic than wizards. They don't know what magic really is, so they use their creative imaginations to try and recreate what they think it is." Hadley explained, using the speaker system at the front of the bus as she held onto the bar.

"Much like we have the wizarding children books, The Tales of Beedle the Bard, they too have children books. The Magic School bus is - in fact - from a children's book series based on scientific facts. The series features the teacher, Ms Frizzle, who takes her students to seemingly impossible locations to educate them on various information." Did that clarify some of the misunderstandings? It should have. "SO that's exactly what we're going to do. We're simulating that by riding on the so-called Magic School Bus to a destination to learn about transportation in more a hands-on way!" Wasn't that cool?

Her eyes danced around inspecting the interior of the bus as she listened to the professor answering other's questions.

And they were flying! Not like she never experienced the feeling but being in a muggle bus was cool.

As the items fell, she grabbed herself a green set of equipment and put them on, though her goggled sat on the top of her head for now. "Professor, we can't be seen right?" She was curious about this whole thing.

Be seen? Hadley smiled at the Slytherin Prefect and shook her head. "No dear. We won't be seen. I would never risk breaching the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy, even for educational purposes." That was a promise.


The Magic School Bus drove steadily fast through the air, but hopefully not at nauseating speeds. As it did so, Josephina continued speaking in regards for what to expect at their destination. "So we were going to go to a driving range and learn to drive race cars, but unfortunately due to safety and age regulations, we can't. Instead we're headed to something that might just be more fun!" Hopefully it would be anyway. "Similar to cars, but definitely safer...." Considering most of them were underage, she did have to fare to the side of caution.

She held up a postcard for them to see. "Bumper Cars. Anyone want to venture a guess about how they might work?"
