Hydra placed some boards onto the end of the wagon floor and stuck them together using the incantation 'Adhaero...Adhaero... Damn.' Hydra kept on trying until she had it right. 'Adhaero... Yes... Adhaero.' Once she had done that she placed some wood in.front of the wheels to keep it from rolling away. 'Nice to meet you Theodore.' She smiled.

Mk, so then now Kimalia has permission to cut things out. Wand at her ready with a smirk, she casted "Diffindo." Tracing as carefully as possible, her tongue sticking out to the side from concentration as she slowly carved out a nice window shape. It was large enough for one to poke their heads out and wave, but small enough to not collapse from the open air pressure.

Then she lifted the board up, hmm it wasn't as square as she would like.. To be honest, she wasn't as much of an artist as she was a flyer. So, again, casting "Diffindo." she made little swirls, making the window look all fancy and stuff. Hehe. She lifted the board up and tested it by peeking her head through and waving at the others. Board one is done. Now she could work on the door. This was quite fun.

Everything was coming along...Dylan gave Vicky a pat on that back, nodding at his thumbs up. If Dylan had been focusing on writing all the info they needed down like Vickers, he might have not understood what the proper pronunciation was himself...

He offhandedly heard little Indy practicing the spells...That was good.

...Kim wanted to do some windows and that worked for him. There was nothing worst in the world than the feeling or being trapped in a small space...So, the Cap'n had a point there. If she handled those, Dylan could do the floorboards.

Yep. He'd just get on that right away.

Moving towards the front of their half finished cart, Dylan Accio'd the board over (silently pleased at being able to use his favorite charm again in front of others) and hovered it into place. Bringing his knee up to help keep it still, he traced the outline of the board, enunciating "Adhaero!". *SIGH* Just like the good ol' days...when he'd stuck Professor Uly's bottom to his chair.

*SIGH, I say*

Making sure that it was good and STUCK, the Slytherin ducked down, reenforcing the "Adhaero!" charm underneath, as well. He didn't want Indy falling out, since she would be the they were carrying...

Okay. So Indy was pretty sure that she had the sticking charm down now. Because she'd done lots of practice. And she was a big third year now. So she was totally going to be so awesome at sticking things together. "I'll stick the back on..." She musd with a smile. Because the back was only the back. And was only a little bit. So it wouldn't really matter if she didn't do it very well. And she was only little. So it was okay for her to not do it very well. And she could pout and pretty and then nobody would care if she hadn't done it very well.

But now. She was going to stick the wood to the back of the wagon. Come on Indiana you can do a good job. She practiced the spell once more, before pointing her wand at the piece of wood. She accioed the wood first, before trying carefully to put it into place. There we go. That looked okay. Only one more spell to do. "Ahd-high-row" She said the spell as confidently as she could, and yay it sticked. "Yaay." She giggled, jumping up and down a bit. Jangling away. Wooot. Okay. Now she was thinking of something.

"We should totally like decorate it." So that they could have the prettiest wagon ever. Agree with us please? And then she'd decorate it in pretty ravenclaw and slytherin colors. Okay? That sounded cool.

Gulping, he wondered if he could even make it across the finish line, or if it would be waaaay to heavy for him! Looking around he didn't see Pyrsephonie anywhere now. It was just between him and Nigel. Gulping again he looked over at Nigel.

"I think I'm jus' gonna pull it myself and get us over there." His gaze moved all the way to where the professor was. "Merlin..." he murmured as he realized how far away that was. The cart was huge now that he looked at it, it hadn't looked that big when he first started putting it together with Nigel, but now that he had to actually...pull it?

"Erm, hold on tight." PFFT, hold on, were they even gonna go very fast, let alone move very far? Moving to the front of the cart, Isaac started pushing on the handle, maybe it would be easier to push... Digging his feet into the dirt he pushed with all his might just budging it a bit. "Come on!" Grunting he kept on pushing on the handle moving the cart just a bit.

Now Kimalia could work on the door.. Picking up another board, she held it up in front of her, cocking her head to the side. Hmm.. now how should the door look like? A quill and ink would've been nice, but she only had Indy's size to work with. Okay.. that'll work then.

"Diffindo." Carving slowly, tracing it once again. She wanted it to flap back and forth like a real door, but having it fold up and down like a pet door was the best her fifth year witch capabilities could pull off.. Phew!

Lifting her turban to wipe the sweat growing on her forehead. It was hot out. She used her body to test it out again, crouching low to Indy's height where she lift the door up and went 'inside' to close it. Perfect! Now she just needed to stick these walls on.

Sierra had to remind herself to be patient when the wheels fell right off the cart. "Ahh, it's okay. Here, we'll try again," she said. She picked up the wheels and put them back into position. "Okay, so what you need to do is focus on exactly what you're trying to do. Get a good mental picture of what the cart would look like with the wheels added." She gestured for the girl to go ahead and do this. "Try closing your eyes. That always helps for me. Then I'll hold the wheels in place, and you cast."

"Ready?" she asked. She looked over toward the other two. "If you two want to go ahead and stick the handle on, we can finish this and take it to the finish line." She didn't know how much longer they had, but it couldn't be too long.

Nigel saw that it was only Issac pushing the cart. Well that's going to be a problem. If only one person was pushing the cart then maybe they wont even make the finish line, But Nigel had faith that Issac could go it.

Nigel started shouting "You can do it Issac one step at a time". He turned around and saw that Issac started pushing the cart forward as fast as he could which was a mistake. "Slow down Issac dont waste all your strength in the begininning lets just finish the race no matter what place we get." THey had already got this far with only two people so lets just finish. Slowly we were making it towards the finish line and only had a couple more steps to make it there. Then "YES WE FINISHED" we crossed the finish line and collapsed.

Dylan eyed their team as everyone began working at once...Cap'n was prepping the doors, Indy was bouncing around...wanting to decorate...Probably was already decorating...Vickers was finishing up the wheels...

Ooooh!

He could paint the wheels. And then when the walls officially went up, he could paint those as well...

What was that spell, though? Oh, yes, yes...Now he remembered.

Waving his wand at the wheels, he muttered "Pingo green!". Watching them shift from brown to a bright green, Dylan shrugged. He had been going for a more deep color...but meh. THERE WAS NO TIME TO WORRY ABOUT THAT.

"Ready?" she asked. She looked over toward the other two. "If you two want to go ahead and stick the handle on, we can finish this and take it to the finish line." She didn't know how much longer they had, but it couldn't be too long.

She pointed her wand at the wheels and closed her eyes,"Adhaero!" She opened her eyes and saw they stuck,"Yay, I got them to stick!"

Kimalia was impressed with how her team was doing. "We're going to have the best cart ever guys!" This was no denying, theirs was the best already. She wasn't paying attention to the other groups, she was more concentrated on her important task.. Sticking the walls on. "Okay.."

It was a good thing she practiced pronouncing the spells earlier when Vickers needed Dylan's help, otherwise she would've had to stop and ask for it again. Hehe. Clearing her throat, she pointed her wand at the first wall she completed, the one with the window. "Wingardium Leviosa." First she had to float it gently over to the floor board that was done. Slowly setting it down before pointing at the specific spot she wanted it to attach at. "Ahd-high-row." Presto, it was stuck on. Now with the Door board left to attach, she was more than ready.

It was quite simple, since she already did one, the last one would be a cinch. "Wingardium Leviosa." Gently she sent the board to the proper position, setting it down slowly before adding finally. "Ahd-high-row." Done. "You guys ready?" She asked. Excited to get everything finished.

Oooh. She was totally going to decorate the wagon. Indiana left the older students to finish putting the wagon together as she decided what to decorate it with. Oooh. She had her bangles. They could totally use those to decorate it with. She slipped one off, and decided to stick it onto the cart. It would look all pretty and fortune teller like if she did that. And it meant that she would be able to use her funky sticking charm that she was really good at doing. She waited a few moments, just to let the funky older snakey girl put the walls on, before she dropped her bangle onto the floor, she accoied it, and made it move over one side of the cart. Okay. Now it was in a good place she just needed to do the sticking charm. “Ahd-high-row” She said, keeping her voice nice and confident so that it would be cool and stick on.

Yay it worked. And it looked pretty. A bit alone though, so she repeated the process a couple of times, getting the bangles onto the walls looking really pretty. Oh. It looked so awesome. Indy was so proud of this. There wagon was totally going to be the prettiest thing ever. “It totally needs a name too.” She giggled, thinking as she bounced around a little, and beamed at her other team mates. “I’m thinking the Princess Indiana.” Because she was little and cute. And it work out. Well that was sorted. Pretty wagon with a pretty name to go.

Okay they were nearly read to go now right? Woot.

As he watched the cart coming together Vickers looked back at their supply pile. The handle still needs to be put together and attached. He took the long pole in his hand and uttered the sticking charm again “Adhaero” he uttered, hovering the wand stroke onto one end of the pole. He took the shorter wood and slammed it against the end of the pole, making sure this handle will withstand the stress of pulling that will be done later.

He moved to the opposite end of the pole and uttered “Adhaero” again, then repeated the sticking charm onto the middle of the front axle. He took the long pole and rammed it against the middle of the axle. He gave it a few strong tugs. He was satisfied that this handle can at least pull the entire weight of the cart plus another person inside it.

Pushing into the handle of the cart, he dug his feet in some more pushing off into the handle again and again. He could hear Nigel shouting but just kept working on getting that cart as far as he could. Grunting he pushed it again a few feet. Stepping to the other side of the handle, he dug his feet into the ground pulling it forward instead. OK! That was working better, if he could just pull it a little more maybe he could push it into going faster!

Digging his feet in he pulled with all his might. OOPS, big mistake! His feet slipped sliding forwards as he went down. "UMPHHH" Lying flat on his back he closed his eyes briefly when he opened them he saw the professor next to him. "Did we make it?" he asked or had the professor come to check on if he was alright. UGH, he hoped it was that he had actually made it, because otherwise he'd have to get back up and pull or push some more!

Selena nodded as she listened to everyone. "Kennedy! I'm naming you Orange." Totally not random. Selena rocked back and forth in her shoes, liking the way the purpleness of her skirt flowed and getting slightly distracted. Selena shook her head, the turban almost falling off and straightened it.

"So let's attach the walls!" Selena said, beaming and nodding at the handle that the younger Slytherin had made. She looked at the Ravenclaw girl. "So, Ravvviiiie, who are you?" Selena asked as she levitated another board to go on the other side of the cart to make another wall. "Someone attach that please?" Selena asked.

Because she couldn't perform two spells at once no matter how epically cool that would be. Sadly she couldn't perform two spells at once though she couldn't say she knew anyone who coul.

Okay, okay. WALLS WERE UP!

...And some decorations...and the handle?

Yes, yes...Vicky had just attached the handle.

Well, Dylan just needed to paint the entire thing, now. Seeing just the wheels colored and the rest plain was going to bother him to no end...Anything unfinished bothered him...

Slowly circling their masterpiece...*SMIRK* he pointed his wand at the first wall, saying "Pingo BLUE!"...The color shifted immediately and had somehow turned out quite nice. Not wasting the time to give it much thought, Dylan moved onto the next wall, saying "Pingo Green!" clearly...and then coloring the last wall "Pingo BLUE!"...

Okay...It was even parts green and blue...for both houses involved. That was fair, it seemed.

...Reaching his arm out towards Indy, he smirked. "Okay, Indy...You ready?"

Oooh yaay! The wagon was all ready to go now. Perfect. That meant that were all ready to go and win the race now. That meant that she had to get in. “I ammmm!” Indy giggled with a big smile as he mooched her way over to the wagon. Ahh. Dylan was nice and helpful Holding onto his arm she climbed into the wagon. Oh she felt right on top of the world in here. “I feel like a real fortune teller.” She giggled, waving her arms a little, and they jangled around a little. Hehe. Maybe she could get a job as a real fortune teller when she grew up. Not that that would really work because she wasn’t a seer. And so wouldn’t really be able to tell people what their future was going to be. So maybe she’d just pretend to be a fortune teller. She could pretend to tell Spike’s future. Hehe. That would be fun.

But first they needed to like win the race. “Go guys! Lets go win” She giggled, encouraging them to go and like let them win the race. She was sure that she was not that heavy so her team mates shouldn’t have that much difficulty in pulling her along. Wooot. Go team slytherclaw. They were totally the best team ever. There really needed to be a slytherclaw house. Indy would love that

"Wow, this is awesome." Aww, the cart looked so pretty, hehe. She waited for Indy to get inside the cart before she too boarded the cart. Make way for the Captain Kimalia, yes, she was finally calling herself that after shedding the Karma.. but wait..

O_o

Wait..

Why was the cart moving. Hey! You guys forgot about Captain Kimalia! "Wait for meee!!" Kimalia knew these heels would betray her eventually, yet she insisted on looking good. Ugh! Lifting her dress up. It was now or never. "Indy, step aside!" She wanted Indy to stop poking her head out so she didn't get a crash collision course.

Using her Quidditch-like reflexes as she jumped and dove in through the window into the cart. It was sturdy enough for her weight, after all they were light weight girls. Hehe. Her kicking legs were still sticking out the window, but at least she was safe for the ride.

Vickers’ eyes lit up at how their cart has quickly come together and looked so festive to boot. Hurray for TEAMWORK! He turned his head and can see Kurumi and Selina having crossed the finish line. Gah! They gotta get moving!

“Indy, Kim get in!” he called out to the girls as he picked up the handle to the cart “Dylan lets goooo!” he hollered, pulling the handle and throwing his entire body weight onto that forward motion, running as fast as his legs can carry him. Pulling and running, pulling and running… wait was that the finish line banner?

He tried to slow down but his forward momentum was much to fast. Tripping over his own feet he slammed chest first onto the ground, knocking the wind out of him. And where did the cart go? He didn’t know.

Oichi had held the board for her partner and watched her closely as she stuck each peice where it needed to go to start the building process of their cart. She heard her shout adhaero. Adhaero cool name for a spell to stick stuff She then saw her make a slight error in placement and said, avexis was it? Avexis, awesome name, from the looks of it, it is good for unsticking. Before Oichi knew it her partner was saying it was her turn, "Um, alright, I'll give it a shot. Oichi took out her wand and pointed it at the wood block that Penny was holding in place for her. She concentrated hard on making that wood stick where it needed to. "AHAERO", and with that she saw the wood conform and stck right in place. She checked her work and smiled. "Oh my goodness, I did it!!! I made wood stick!!!".

Amelia looked up at Selena as she asked who she was. She was EXCITED to be talked to as any eleven year old girl would. She beamed up at Selena and spoke.

"Oh I'm Amelia Johanson...you can call me Mika" she smiled up at her as she saw the other bit of wall was in place she wiped out her wand pointed it at the wood that was now in place for the wall and spoke out the spell. "adhaero" the spell was now like the back of her hand.

Once both girls were inside...Vicky was pushing...

Wait, wait, WAIT! Vickers was leaving him?!...Staring after the boy for a moment, he had to give his fellow yankee credit for the display of strength...but then he realized that he was, indeed, LEAVING HIM!

"YO, VICKY..." Not cool...*EYES*

Taking off after the cart, Dylan was able to latch onto the back somehow...but was getting pulled more so than helping push. With wide eyes, he forced his legs to run fast enough to make some kind of difference. They were getting there...With the two of them pushing, the cart began moving a bit faster...and the Finish line was in sight...but then something took his legs out from under him...Not that he let go of the cart...

o.O His hand was stuck to the back...

HOW was it stuck to the back? o.O

Looking around wildly, he attempted letting go...but, once again, found he was unable to...He did, however, notice in his wild-eyed state that they'd just flew past the Professor...

Uh oh...

RUNAWAY CART!!

Trying to pull himself back up where he could at least be on his feet, Dylan hefted. He was pulling his weight up as hard as he could...and it worked, (of course. He wasn't that heavy himself)...but the cart was still going fast...

Attempting to slow the thing down, he locked his legs...the billowing pants bunching up around him...but all he'd managed to do was release himself from the back...Falling to the ground with a definite CRACK!, he blearily looked after their masterpiece...

Then he remembered that the girls were inside...WHERE WAS VICKERS?!?!

Kaiden nodded at the compliment. "Thanks." he said to the older boy as he waited for the next bit of instructions. He looked back at Professor Elwood's cart. 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?"

Ugh, so she finally got her legs in the window, save a heel that fell off, but that was okay. She was enjoying the ride with Indy. La,lala.. Hey, why's Dylan screaming. "Dylan?" Poking her head out to see, "What's going-"

O_O

Is this for real? After all that running and jumping in the cart, they need to make their get away again. She saw them pass the finish line, but that wasn't the danger... It was the nearby trees.

"UM, I hope you have your wand Dylan." She didn't wait for him to talk back as she dug into her skirt pocket for hers. "Okay, okay" Trying to aim her wand at the shaking cart from the grass. "Hold STIIIIILLLLLLL"

She didn't get to finish the sentence as the cart hit a bump in the grass, sending it flying!

"I Don't Have a Partner!!!!" Charlit wailed. She was pretty sure she would have gotten someone's attension. Maybe there was a group of two that she could join and finish the rest of the activity with.
