Lima laughed at Whitney's protest, though she was shocked that she had dragged Cale along too. "The more the merrier, I guess," she said chuckling. It was actually good too, since she had wanted to meet Cale again anyway.

She smiled at Whitney when she was seated beside her and then put her seat belt on. "You ready?" she asked winking.

He preferred the larger ones himself, the ones that did loops and went really fast, but these rides were great for the kids. He groaned as he passed the tilt a whirl, he had ridden that as a child but just didn't seem to have the equilibrium for it anymore. It was great that the kids liked it.

"Everybody having fun?", he called out.

Jayne looked up "Yeah Professor!!"

Helena wandered through the carnival, only remotely interested. There wasn't much she was scared of, but heights was definitely present on that short list, and most of these rides went up in the air. Sighing, Helena thought vaguely that she wouldn't dare go alone on one of those rides.

Looking up from her seemly-trance, Helena caught sight of Cale being pulled onto the roller coaster by a first year she recognized from her house and an older student she didn't know. She chuckled at the sight, and, upon catching Cale's eye, gave him a small wave.

Still chortling, Helena's feet had led her to the bumper cars. Well, she thought dimly, This couldn't be that bad, right? When the cars stopped and the riding passengers exited, Helena walked herself over to a dark blue one that wasn't a shade off of the color of her eyes at the moment, though nowhere near as radiant.

Only just holding back a sigh, Helena climbed into good ol' number 17 and buckled her seatbelt (years of riding in muggle cars taught her that this was very important. it also had sunk in more when she had realized what a reckless driver her father was). Peering around slightly anxiously, Helena waited for the ride to start.

Before Whitney could finish the thought the ride started. It started off slow and quickly picked up pace. Colors were everywhere. "Ahhh!" she screamed, knowing no one actually heard her.

"Hey Jenn, were you planning on going to the Bumper Cars? Those are really awesome to ride. And you don't get ill in it, like in the Tilt-A-Whirl either..." she added the information since it would be something she would have appreciated to know first-hand.

Jenn tilted her head slightly. "I was thinking about it. Do you want to go with me?"she asked. Jenn laughed. "We should go on that too then."she said giggling. She walked to another mirror and giggled. She was now short and fat. Walking to another she was all sqiggly. Jenn laughed at that image.

Jenn smiled at him. "Um, sure."she said. She looked at Pat. "You want to come?"she asked. "Then we could go to the bumper cars together."she said, skipping over to Pat.

Maddox grinned and said, "Extremely ready!" Mads grinned mischeviously and said, "Oh im ready to rock." Infact he was so ready to rock that when the ride slowly started moving Maddox started rocking back in forth to get the spinning going. It was amazing how fast you could spin in these things. All the colors of the different lights on the rides were just a blur. He was laughing so loud he wasnt sure if penny was laughing or screaming with him.

Penny laughed at Mads comment. She should have known better then to ask. When Maddox stared rocking back and forth, Penny followed suit. She started laughing harder. The cart was spinning so fast that at one time she even screamed. "Maddox!!" she screamed with laughter. She was not sure if her heard her but she countinued taking a deep breath, "When was the last time we did anything this fun?" She could not remember.

Biff went to the bumper cars. " You are all mine" he laughed at everyone there. Bump onto one car , then the other and another car. Then he went to where all these funny mirrors are and crazy walkways. "Cool" he told everyone.

LaFresita 12-03-2008 10:32 PM

All in all, the bumper cars were pretty boring. Boring-- but safe, all except a crazy-driving boy whom Helena recognized from seeing around the lake. Shaking her head with a small smile as she exited, she peered around to find something else that avoided heights.... or spinning. Helena wasn't nearly as brave around muggle stuff and next to cowardly when she was alone. Deciding upon trying out the 'fun house' (Helena hoped that the name wasn't misleading), she skipped over and waited her turn for entry.

Lima patted Whitney on the back and smiled. "That's the spirit!" Then the ride started. She was so excited, she hadn't been on a roller coaster in a few years. When they reached the first incline, she said, "OMG! This is going to get good in a second." And just after she said that, they reached the top and started to drop. "AAAAAAH!" she screamed out.

"Oh my God Lima!!! This is so.....FUN!!!" Whitney was screaming at the top of her lungs. She'd just gone down two inclines and through 3 loopy-d-loops. She couldn't believe she'd ever resisted going on something so....awesome! If this roller coaster was small, Whitney couldn't imagine a big one.

Is it really that obvious?" she asked only half serious. "Actually I believe I saw you in Charms, harassing the professor." she added with a wink. Whitney also remember how "some" people from Slytherin had been rather annoyed by him; and he of them. Perhaps Gryffindors and Slytherins weren't meant to be friends. Things were working out so far though.

Happy she'd helped Cale out, she gave him another wink.

"Lima!" she yelled feeling Lima pulling her to a roller coaster. She grabbed Cale's arm and dragged him along with her. "If I have to do this, so do you." she told him and scooted in the seat where she was between Lima and Cale. 'So far so good.

"Yeah, I have...personal issues with Intern Trelawney from when she was at school," Cale explained with a cheeky grin. Oh, and she gave my girlfriend a love potion a few months ago, he thought to himself. He wouldn't tell her that, though--there were just some things that had to be kept between the professors and the students. He didn't want the whole school gossiping about it...he'd rather let Caleum deal with it. The Defense professor hated Trel just as much as Cale did. "She also has the tendancy to pick on me a lot, so I was just getting a bit of revenge," he said with a chuckle.

Before he had time to comment on her first year remark, he found himself being dragged onto one of those roller coaster things. "Wait, what? But...it goes so high!" he said, his voice getting a teensy bit higher than normal as he glanced up at the towering metal track. He was forced into a seat and decided to just grab the bar in front of him and hold on. He was a man, he could take it!

Cale hadn't been prepared as the coaster started moving. He had never been on a roller coaster before, even though his cousin Emma had been on one over in America, and he had honestly never felt like he was missing out on anything. He gripped the bar as they climbed higher and higher, knuckles turning white before they reached the top and started their descent back down to Earth. "AHHHHHHH!" he cried, not even caring at his scream came out rather girlish sounding. Right now he was more concerned on whether or not he was enjoying himself or ready to vomit over the side.

Helena walked through the fun house, though she wasn't having much fun. It was pretty boring inside. Goofy mirrors that distorted her features were kind of old news, the maze of mirrors was tame compared to the underwater maze she'd gone through back home, and the slide at the end was pure torturing humiliation. When she finally reached the bottom of the twisty yellow slide, Helena brushed her jeans off while she her rosy pink blush diminished slowly.

Sighing, she moved so she wouldn't be hit by another 'slider'. She wandered off toward the tilt-a-whirl, enjoying several amusing minutes of watching people scream in terror over a dumb (but still a little bit frightening to Helena) hunk of metal.

" Biff sees Helena go to the tilt-whirl. He waqlks fast to catch up with her. " Want to be my partner for this?" he asked her. " I love do make this ride go fast, faster and fastest" Biff said to Helena. " If you like, there is something more fun called the zipper( some call it salt and pepper) for an exciting adventure" Biff gave an evil laugh.

Helena turned to see Biff walking over to her. She smiled brightly, though her eye color hovered between dark purple and dark blue. Sure! I mean, whatever you want to do... I'm not to familiar with muggle stuff. She grinned, realizing that Biff was whom she'd seen at the lake. This recognition made her smile widen and the color of her eyes edge closer to blue than purple.

"I told you you would love it!!" Lima screamed back at Whitney after they went over one more loop-d-loop, this one being the biggest yet. She couldn't believe how she had managed to go for so long without being on one of these things. It was incredible.

Turning her attention to her other side, she noticed that Cale didn't seem to be fairing so well. The kid actually looked like he might be getting sick. He must have never been on a roller coaster before... Concerned, she yelled out, "you okay there?" hoping that he would be able to both hear her, and manage to reply to her without getting sicker.

Mari walked with Asteira, her eyes taking in the sights of the rides all around them. " I want...to try them all!" She said, her more adventurous side coming out as she looked at them. " Come on, choose one, I don't care which, but lets go!" She said, acting positively childlike. She loved rides, as long as she was hooked in tightly, that is.

The ferris wheel, the Himalaya, Mr. Freeze, Superman, Batman, the Hall of Mirrors, Pharoah's Swing, UFO Ride, Tilt-A-Whirl, the Zipper, loop-a-plane, the log ride, bumper cars and even a small roller coaster. All rides are full size and in full motion, ready to carry you and your friends on an adventure of your own. Have fun, and don't get too dizzy on that Tilt-A-Whirl!
Asteira looked around as she saw all the rides. this.."is awesome!" she said as she grinned. What fun they would have. Ehhh so many rides." lets go left to right. First one is the Himalaya! Isnt that a place in Russia or something?" she asked as she moved to sit down on the ride. "Hey are you suppose to put your arms up like this?" she asked as she raised her arms." I saw it on a movie once. You think it helps?" she asked mari curiously.

When the ride had first started Whitney was too scared to look and see how much fun Cale was having. Now she wanted to see the excitement on his face...instead she saw terror and fear. He had never been on a roller coaster, like her, but he was NOT enjoying the experience. 'Great Whit, meet someone than scare them to death. There goes a new friend.' She felt so bad, Whitney really hoped he wouldn't hate her afterwards.

"Yes, you were right" she told her sarcastically annoyed. Whitney still couldn't believe she had missed this. Even though Whitney wasn't sure how long they'd been on the ride all she could feel was excitement. All other feeling went out the window.

Than Lima looked at Cale and asked how he was doing and Whitney got the feeling of guilt back. "I'm so sorry Cale!" she yelled over all of the noise, "I'll never do this to you again." 'Stupid Whitney', she thought frowning.

Mari was sure she had had too much sugar, if she was this excited about going on some weird ride. It looked like a frozen ocean, the way it waved and moved up and down. " Well, I guess we'll find out!" She said, and then she scooched in next to Asteira, smiling brightly at her. " I think it just...spins...but I'm still excited. Is this what having too much sugar does to you?" She said, and then she giggled a bit, waiting for the ride to start.

"I think we will. You better not be all crazy and faint on me. I'll have to drag you to the hospital wing." she told her as she raised an eye brow at her. That was her weird way of saying dont even think about it." its probably like a wave or something. Oh maybe we can go surfing after this...You think they have a ride like that?" she had heard it was fun." i dont know...How many chocolate covered cheesecakes did you eat? Like three?" that would do it.

" Cool, lets take on those rides" Biff said to Helena. "Wow, your eyes change colors, I like it" Biff told her. " I do not knoe anything about muggle stuff, either but I like this muggle carnival" Biff said to Helena.

Stina Felton 12-05-2008 06:52 AM

Isabella strolled into the carnival and looked at all the bright lights. It was absolutely amazing. The rides look exhilarating. She didn't know what to try first. Perhaps she would go on the Ferris Wheel with Biff when she found him. It looked like a place she could sit with him, close together and enjoy her time with him. She began to walk around to see what there was to offer.

Helena smiled and followed him to one of the rides, unsure which one they were heading towards. When Biff mentioned her eyes, she smiled sheepishly and said, Yeah, it's kind of been doing that since I was born. My parents told me when I was older that they used to be able to tell what mood I was in by the color of my eyes before I could talk. She smiled. I'm Helena, by the way. Her eyes were still dark blue as she eyed the Zipper with apprehension.

Keysquah 12-05-2008 08:51 PM

Laylee looked around excitedly at everything as she approached her class! This would have to be the best class she ever attended! She wondered if there was a lesson involved with this... The mini park looked just like an amusment park she went to in a America, only smaller! Laylee ran towards the Zipper, smiling with delight!
