SPOILER!!: Continuing saga: The Runaway Cart Mystery Dylan simply watched with baited breath as Cap'n took the leap of faith with the little Ravenclaw on her back. She'd just jumped, assuming that the Professor and the Prefect would spell her in time. Gah, if that wasn't trust in someone and their abilities...the Slytherin didn't know what was. ...But his concern was generally unneeded. Professor Elwood was a Professor for a reason, as he was just reminded...and between she and Sierra, they'd snatched the two free-falling girls out of the air, landing them gently on the grass. How had Indy slept through all of that? That was strange... Perhaps she'd gotten a concussion... Just as an observation, he side/eyed the blonde Professor who was literally FREAKING OUT. Had the situation not been as severe as it was...Dylan would have been laughing so hard, he'd have been crying...but it was severe. And a little terrifying thinking about how he and Vicky had almost killed these two girls. Really... Then Vickers was kinda mumbling to him, to which Dylan shrugged. YES, he was in pain. When he'd fell, something had made a laugh CRACK! noise...and from how his arm was feeling, the Slytherin assumed he'd most likely broken it...but he wouldn't mention it to the older Ravenclaw. When all was said and done, he'd go get fixed up...and no one would need to be any wiser about it. Yes, he was trying to be a tough guy..."Er...Yea...I'm right behind you." Why was it suddenly excruciatingly painful to walk? |
Six. SPOILER!!: SLAVES. *evil* HAH. She was the Queen, she was the Princess, she was the First Lady, she was the.......EMPRESS? Raising an eyebrow, Beezus turned to look behind her, err...at Paulie who was apparently behind her since he was pushing their cart from behind. "Empress? That's the female version of an Emperor right?" she asked. Hmmm... She didn't know much about those kind of royalties. But Empress Beezy Weezy sounded good to her, so off they go! Bouncing slightly on the wagon, Beezus caught Kaiden's suggestion, then she waited for Paulie before giving out her own speech. "Well, grapes are pretty good." The Ravenclaw commented, turning her head from the front to the back and vice versa just to accommodate her two Heck, she was enjoying this too much that she couldn't help but add, once again in a dramatic tone, "Hurry! Impress your Empress!" Seriously, if someone would hear her saying that in that way, they would've think she have been possessed by a woman from the medieval times. Too distracted with her new power (which was to command her teammates at the current moment since they have no choice), Beezus didn't even realize that they were already nearing the finish line, that when she did, she was had poured all her excitement on smacking Paulie's shoulder, considering he was closer. "We're almost there! We're almost there!" |

But as fast his excitement of winning had jumped it vanished at the same point, cause at the same time the cart had falling into pieces of walls and wheel. He felt like running and holding the cart together but it was too late for that. Nothing was still in place, everything had fallen apart. He confident just flew into the air like nothing. H was just about to feel that they were out and now there was no ope in winning at all when Cass spoke again. What? get the wheels done? how are we going to complete this after all? He just couldn't think of anything at all the could help them work faster. He had to do the walls again. It was difficult the first time itself and now he had to do it all over again. What in the name of Merlin were they doing wrong? he kept thinking. Picking his wand from the ground, that had slipped through his hand as he saw the wagon fall, he took a firm grip of the wand trying to concentrated this time and lifted the side wall plank and brought it close to the bottom plank where the wheels were now firmly placed on both the ends and said "Adhero!" and the left wall was as still as ever. The wagon wasn't moving this time. He looked for another plank for the right wall. He found one nearby still lying where the cart had broken. He brought it closer to the wagon with the help of his wand and repeated the same action as for the left wall. He was done n few minutes and then looked at Cass and Messer. "Okay, the walls are done." he said with a little smile on his face. "Hope it doesn't fall off this time." he said it with a sigh. |
SPOILER!!: anna and chris Okay. So now that the professor had laid her on the floor Indy was feeling a bit better. But she didn't really get why she was on the floor. She'd only hit her head and it wasn't that bad. Apart from the fact that she felt sleepy. But she'd just nearly died so that was probably why she was feeling so sleepy. And the teacher wanted her to go to the hospital wing? Well that was probably a good idea. Because well Indy wasn't too sure if she'd actually done anything really bad to her head. Before the professor could tell her anything else Indy pushed herself up into a more sitted position. "I can walk...." She offered, smiling up at the slytherin prefect. The girl might just need to stick close just in case she felt all faint. But she felt pretty okay. Apart from having a bit of a headache coming on. |

He too attracted by the chaos caused, has his head turns to the direction from where the ruckus is coming from. What else can he do but to laugh? "So embarassing, man!" says the boy, still laughing. Xing turns his attention back to the wagon when Louisa carves 'L & Z'. So, she is naming the wagon 'L & Z'? No... It's supposed to be their initials, but she gets his name wrong. "Actually, Xing start with 'X'," he corrects the mistake by carving a reflected 'Z' over the letter itself to form an 'X'. "There we go. Much better..." he smiles althought starting to feel tired. As Louisa attached the handles, Xing hold the long piece of wood attached to the wagon. He doesn't know what the name is, but he'll call it a 'neck' since it looks like a guitar neck. "You ride, I'm going to pull," he replies immediately when the Ravenclaw asks about it. Common gentleman code of conduct, nothing special. |

Looking around the area, she noted that most people were finishing up or getting back to work after the crash. "Thanks for the lesson, Professor," she said, giving the professor a wave from across the way. Turning back to Indiana, she added, "Well, then. Off we go. If you need any help, just let me know. Otherwise, I'll walk right next to you." Yeah. Niceness. She had it in her at times. She nodded once toward the girl then turned and headed toward the Hospital Wing. OOC: She's left the area now, so poke me later and we'll figure out where to post next if you'd like. ^_^ |

Hop in? Was Nora telling Ira to sit in while Nora would push the cart? Was she sure? "You sure about it, right?" A bit hesitantly Ira climbed into the cart, hoping, with her fingers crossed that they had done a good enough job of building the cart strong enough to handle her weight. Not that she was fat or anything, but still... "You CAN do it Nora!" Ira said, to kinda reassure Nora. In case she was feeling a bit low and nervous. Yep, Ira just KNEW that she COULD do it. |
Post #4 SPOILER!!: Now that he done with the third wheels, Messer need to get the last wheels done ASAP. He looked around to another team and it seems that most of them already done with their carts. Eeeeepp..!! This not good. Not good at all. Quickly he dragged the fourth wheels and brought it closer to their cart. He stick it into the holes and with his other free hand, he pointed his wand "Adhero!" Messer checked the wheels one more time to make sure that they won't fall apart. "Seem okay." Its Zack turned now. While waiting for Zack to finish his work, Messer brought the wood for their cart handle closer to where they're. Oh look Zack already finished his task. "Now we only need the handle." |

"We'll have this cart up and running again in no time." The blonde said encouragingly as she twirled her wand around her fingers, trying to decide if she should double the spell. After all, it did fall apart last time... Nah, she trusted her team mates. Quote:
Besides, the professor did say at least two walls. So, without another word, the blonde walked over to a couple of wooden planks that were on the ground, picked it up and walked back to the half finished cart. She then placed it at the foot of the cart, covered the opening at the bottom and flicked her wand "Adhaero." She said firmly, sticking the plank on firmly. Yup, just one step at a time. Quote:

He looked for some more plank and found that Messer had brought some already. "Oh! thanks" he said to Messers. He moved close towards the plank which was kept at the side of the now made cart and used his wand to get it on the top of the cart and place it on the side of the cart wall. He kept it at the top, it wasn't moving but still he had to do the spell to make sure it didn't fall. He had his wand in his right wand, he pointed it at the top plank and said "Adhaero!" the plank was now stuck to the top making it look like a shelter. He looked back at the two and smiled "How's that looking?" he asked then looking back at the top of the cart. He looked as Messers as he spoke and then said "Oh, sure we could make the handle part now. I can get some wood for that then." he said and then headed to bring some wood that could be used as the handle bars. He returned with some wood floating in the air as he used the flying charm on them and brought the to the place they wee working on the cart. "Here, i got some, they could be used a the handled bars. If you want some more and let me know i'll get some more while you work" he said and a bit excitement in his voice had returned. |

Off they went... just a little bit more and... "Wediditwediditwediditwedidit we did iiiiit!" Nora couldn't have been happier when they reached the line. She didn't just let go of the cart, however, or else Ira might have never stopped. Pulling it a bit, she stopped the cart, and then the actual jumping up and down and the clapping started. |
Post #6 (you can RP reaching the finishing line in ur next post? :3) Quote:
Louisa approached the wagon and started inspecting it carefully. "We're not going to win, since we like.. finished almost last but it'll be fun." The wheels were cool.. so was the floor... the two walls on the sides and the wooden bars that represented the pulling aid. She caaaarefully stepped on the wagon's floor. She didn't thrust her whole weight on it in case it just rolled off but gradually lifting her other foot on the wagon with her arms stretched at the side for balance. If she dies in this pathetic outfit, she'll make sure not to head toward the light but come back and haunt professor Elwood as a ghost. That was her fair warning. Once she was on her knees and hands on the wagon, she nodded nervously at Xing. It was his cue to pull her... not too fast... she didn't want to die. |
Post #5 SPOILER!!: Oh. A Slytherin who's nice. Messer grinned widely at Cass' comment. The Hufflepuff raised his eyebrows when the older girl picked out a couple of wooden planks. What's that for? Oh. Apparently the wooden planks she picked out were for another walls. That seem legit. The first cart they build was fell apart maybe with another walls this cart will be much more stronger than the first one. "It looks good to me, Zack." Nothing seem wrong. Messer's eyes went from Zack' work to Cass. "I could do that for you." Its not that hard isn't it? He just need to stick the handle. Its almost the same like sticking the wheels. He could definitely do that. Messer took the woods and stick it to where the handle should be. "Umm..Like this?" he asked the blonde hair Slytherin. |
post 4 (Team SlytherLionPuff : Post 13) SPOILER!!: Team As Zack had finished bring the pieces of wood to make the handle bars, he still felt that there was still something missing that he could still do with their cart. He looked around at the cart the had made and noticed that it could still do with few shelves on the cart. Then it would match a little to the one professor showed them and it would also look good and well managed that way. He thought of bring few wood that could be used as the shelves, while Cass and Messers continued to make the handle for the cart. He headed to where he could find small planks that could be used as the shelves. He found some and he used the flying charm on them, i was bit difficult but he managed it in two three tries. He came back to his team. "Hey, i thought we could do with some shelved in our cart." he said smiling at them. He claimed in the cart taking one of the wood with him inside. It wasn't too heavy he could manage it. He hold the wood to the left wall of the cart and said "Adhero!" the first shelf was stuck to the wall he needed some more on the left under the first one. He used the flying charm to bring the wood towards him and then hold it in his arm sticking it under the first one and the said "Adhero!" the second one was stuck a bit below the first. He looked at Messers and Cass and said "Now, how is that looking?" smiling. He looked back at the inside walls of the cart and said i think i will do some shelves on the right as well. He came out of the cart and looked at it from outside. |

She so did not want another collapsed cart. "You can let go now." The blonde instructed before glancing at the new extensions that Zack seemed to have installed onto the cart. Quote:
But just in case... "Zack." The 16-year-old called out "Make sure to stick everything in, we don't want the cart to fall halfway into the race." |
SPOILER!!: Kateeeee! Mr. Hutchinson? Heh. That was kinda cool, and he straightened up a little. She was sorted? Off they goooooo! Spike pulled the cart happily behind him, somewhere between fast walking and running so that it didn't do anything silly. He didn't want it rocking and trying to flip Kate out along the way. And then, before long, they were at the finish line. Oooooh. That was AWESOME. AgainAgain? "We did!" he beamed at Kate, before offering her his hand again to help her down from the cart. And with her felt safely on the ground, he even went in for a celebratory hug. It was only on pulling away he saw who'd been involved in the crash... SPOILER!!: What's happened to Indyyyyy? His eyes widened. Where was the Snake taking his sister? He glanced between Kate and Indy and the Professor, and bit his lip. Indy would be okay, right? He'd go and check on her as soon he got out of class. Now, how HAD she ended up on the ground? Hmm. HMM? Someone didn't know how to build a cart properly. Or drive it. Or both. He eyed the other members of the group in the vicinity. Spike wasn't a happy brother. |
post 6 Text Cut: yous guys This was actually pretty difficult, Even with Paulie pushing from behind. Kaiden knew the older boy must have been taking the most weight, but the little puff was finding it difficult to pull the wagon, and keep it going straight. "If the Lady would quit bouncing, this would be easier." He said, nearly tripping as the wagon bounce again. "And I'll get some Ice cream, just as soon as I milk the cow." Kaiden picked up the pace, for the race, not because he was commanded to. He was determined to finish this race, and finish well. "Almost" Kaiden panted, "Not much farther." |
Post 7 - Crossing the finish line SPOILER!!: *luffles the teammates*[QUOTE=tomewitch;11040250 "Yes," Paulie answered Beezus, as he continued shoving the wagon forward. "An empress is the female form of an emperor." And she seemed pretty keen on being an empress, too. She also seemed pretty keen on getting ice cream, in place of grapes, from her 'slaves.' He grinned upon hearing her 'Impress your empress!' line. Paulie liked rhymes and alliteration and good word play. "Yep, almost there, guys!" As Kaiden continued pulling, Paulie kept pushing the wagon. Just about ten feet..... now just a few... one foot from the finish line!! "Woop woooooop!" Paulie called, as the cart passed on over the finish line. Voila. The crazy empress/slave team had pulled it off! |
Seven. SPOILER!!: *huggles* "Sorry.." said Beezus, finally cutting off her slight bouncing. Ignoring Kaiden's sarcastic response to her ice cream craving dispatch, Beezus leaned forward, excitement and fulfillment rushing into her nerved as she saw the finish line coming close. "Faster guys!" The Ravenclaw exclaimed, clapping enthusiastically. Just a few more.....not so far away now...... AND.... Instead of clapping with her hands together, Beezus was clapping her face, mouth wide open as she screamed for utter victory. "AAAAHHHH! We did it!" She then descended from their wagon with rapid speed, and pulled her teammates into a tight hug. "You did great my slaves." HEHE. The teamwork actually paid off. |

Yeah, he didn't want to risk them flying off like that one group that ended up tree...or wherever. He was busy right now. He took the handle and said, "Adhaero," and stuck the handle to the wagon. There. Now none of the girls were going to fall off. He turned to both Addie and Mika. "Well, I thought you'd all get on the wagon and I'd pull." Yeah, it'd probably be a hard task to pull him all the way to the finish line. |
post 7 Text Cut: We did it! Almost there, almost there. Being the one pulling the cart, Kaiden was the first of his team across the finish, but he continued pulling until they were all across. "We did!" he grinned, as he got roped into a hug. It was amazing that they made this cart and pushed it across the field. "You guys were awesome!" he said, sticking his fist out for Paulie to fist bump. |
Everyone!! Calista stood where she was for a moment, watching the Ravenclaw Prefect and Indiana's retreating backs, glad that the chaos of the wagon accident had finally begun to calm down, Professor Elwood called out to the students who had finished gathered around wher. she now stood at the finish line and to those few who were still working. "Alright everyone! I want to thank you all for working so hard and making my first lesson here at Hogwarts I would say a pretty successful one. Now aswell as having fun I hope you all now see how ridiculous the notion of Divination just being a bunch of fortune tellers really is." She patted her turban with a smile and winked a the others in the congregation that had them aswell. "Divination is much more than all of this that we've messed around with today. We will begin diving into the real deal starting next lesson. Everyone you are dismissed but if you need anything or have any questions feel free to stay behind or visit me later in my office." And with that the blonde Professor waved at those finished and looked eagerly to those still working. OCC: Alright guys the lesson is over but I won't close the thread until later today, 11am-ish EST (4pm GMT) so you all can finish any posts you need. Also thanks so much for making my first lesson a fun one. You guys rock!! |

He smiled in the cart holding his wand and then using the flying charms to bring the two piece of wood inside as well. He took the first wood and place it on he wall matching to that on the left and then with this right hand he took the wand and said "Adhero!" sticking the first piece in place he took the other and stuck it to the wall by saying "Adhero!" again and the second wood was stuck to the wall under the first one on the same height as the second on the left. They all were in matching height now. Two shelves on the right and two on the left. He was super excited with his work that he was about to jump with excitement in the cart but thought best not to. The couldn't afford to break the cart again. They were running out of time now and any moment professor could tell the to stop. While Cass and Messers worked on the handle, he still felt that he could do something more to the cart. He climed down from the cart and stared at *** for a while. "Yes!" he said slightly only to himself. He then he looked back at Cass and Messers "Hey guys, do you mind if i do the door to the cart. That way it would look even better." he said and looked for some two pieces of wood to fit as the door and now he only had one. he need ed one more. "Okay, i thin i need one more to do with the door. I'll get one quickly." he said and ran to get the wood. |
