Indy was looking forward to this. As long as they managed to do a good wagon. Because she really didn't want to end up falling out.
Oooh. So the boy that wasn't Vic was suggesting they get there materials they need. "Thats a good idea." Indy nodded turning around to look at the material. "Then we can make sure we've got everything before we start building it." Didn't really want to end up forgetting something important like a wheel or something. That would be pretty tragic.

This would be good, seeing as they had an even amount of Ravenclaw and Slytherins, so that meant they were going to be building it the smart and best way possible. "Great, sounds good." Nodding at the younger Slytherin's instructions. "Now we'll juuust need some wood to work with." Using her scouting abilities, if she can sight the Quaffle then wood would be a cinch to spot.
Oh duh, they were not that far away from them as Kimalia ran over to collect some boards. At least four would be good, for the walls, floor and ceiling.

fortune teller's cart with the word's 'The Magnificiant Harmony Peacekeeper' written on it's side in faded gold letters.
"Does eveyone know what this is? If you don't it is a fortune teller's wagon and this one belonged to a pretty good one at that, The Magnificiant Harmony Peacekeeper." And she had heard that she was quite pretty too....
Calista looked at the students as they took in the site of the wagon.
"You may be wondering what I am going to have you do that requires us to be on the Grounds? Well that will be answered with this." The Professor dramatically pointed at a large pile of wood, wheels, and long handles laying in the grass not too far from them--how could they have missed it? Surely they didn't think the Groundskeeper was building something new.
"You will be building your own Fortune Teller's wagon and then racing them against your peers. Fortune tellers are always in competition with others to get the customers." She winked slyly.
"Now I want you all to team up, in groups no larger than 4 but you must have at least two to a group." She walked through the crowd of students until she was about 30 yards away.
"You will have to build your wagon using the sticking and unsticking charms, adhaero and avexis respectively." She pulled out her wand and spoke the incantations out so they knew how to perform them themselves.
"Ahd-high-row, to stick things and A-Wek-sis to unstick them!" "Now go ahead and team up, I want there to be as much younger and older student mixtures as possible so that the older ones can help the younger with the spells. And finally, the members of the first two teams to cross the finish line, where I am standing, will recieve each recieve 5 extra house points!"
She stood at her position away from them, the finish line, and shot sparks into the air.
"GO!!" OCC: Alright kiddies here's the rules:
1.) 2-4 people per group.
2.) Try to mix older and younger students together.
3.) Your wagon must consist of a floor, 4 wheels, at least 2 walls and a puller/handle.
4.) In order to win you must pull the cart all the way to the finish line. It doesn't matter which member of the team that posts doing this it counts.
5.) One member MUST be INSIDE the wagon while it is being pulled.
6.) This needs to be done in at least FIVE posts each to get credit. (Label them please)
7.) I know this is a race but please be realistic, and also 1 liners will not count towards a post.
So what to do: You have to post at least 5 times each building the thing and then at least one of you gets in, the other pulls, and then cross the line where Callie is. (Crossing the finish line doesn't count as one of the five)
Good luck!
He nodded his head when Dylan suggested to start collecting building materials.
"I'll take care of a pair of wheels." he offered. He drew his wand out and started levitating two large wooden wheels and settled them near the planks already collected by the Slytherin Captain. He paused for a moment then pointed his wand again at the wood supplies, levitating two thick wooden beams which would serve as the axle and where the wheels will be attached to.

O_o "Um, OH!" Duh, she was a witch, levitating them would've been easier. Buuut since she was already here, she took two large wheels and rolled them over to her group. "Got sooome." And then turned to face the rest of the pile, "Accio two more wheels." Pointing her wand towards the specific two and watched as they flew towards her.
Dylan grinned at Indy, her excitement spilling over. It was terribly difficult for him to be
in the zone around naturally happy people... Why, he had no idea...That's just how it was.
Turning back to his other two teammates, the Slytherin pulled his wand. It was his intention to start helping with the transport of their materials...but an odd site was meeting his blue eyes. Kimalia had taken off, darting towards the area the Professor had designated for supplies...but Vicky had apparently had the same idea.
Quite suddenly, the boards were laying on the ground a few yards away from him...as well as two wheels and the boards the were meant to hold them in place...And Kimalia was running up with their last two.
Wow, that was crazy-stupid fast.
Not really knowing what to think about their speed and efficiency in getting the stuffs together, Dylan pointed his wand towards the pile of handles.
Accio just happen to be one of his best spells, so he felt confident in using it in front of everyone...(There was no need to risk embarrassing one's self. Nope, not at all. He wouldn't dare!)
However, it was unnecessary...because Indy was already running towards the pile. Resting his wand arm, he gave her a thumbs up on her way back and grinned. They had all of their stuf-...No, wait. No they didn't. Spying just one axle for the wheels in their section, Dylan moved towards the piles to get a better look before catching sight of a second one.
Accio!ing that over, as well. he settled it gently down with the other before doing a last check.
"Okay guys...I believe we have everything. Do you all know the correct spells?" Okay, Dylan was acting like a annoyingly helpful Hufflepuff...He knew. Yea, that was getting blamed on competitiveness....
YES. TEAM SLYTHERCLAW FTW!
