"So..." Wanna start things off cos he didn't have a clue? "I guess we just try the spells that are on the board?" He shrugged. He liked the look of that locomoter one.

But Ella could do that part because he would explode the whole train set if he tried.
So...considering they were sitting on the right side of the room, Theodore and Ella's train would be the one that crashed in September of 2048, right? Right. Ella furrowed her brow, looking at the train more closely. POKE. Heh. It moved a little bit. This made the third year smile, even though she knew perfectly well the task wouldn't be that easy. The blonde looked up again when her partner spoke, eyebrow raised. Yes, Theodore?

"Yeah, the trains on our side of the room are the ones that crashed into the snow bank. This could be because of a bunch of different reasons...like maybe the tracks froze or the magic failed..." Or someone was using powerful dark magic to stop the thing from getting to Hogwarts... "We could um...we could use Locomotor. The charm is meant to move objects so perhaps it would move the train?" Though again, the third year was sure that this task couldn't be that simple. "I um...I'll give it a go, yeah?"

Pulling out her wand, Ella pointed it at the toy train, concentrating on making it move around the track. "I think you're meant to say the incantation first, then the object's name so erm..." Right. Here goes... "Locomotor Train."

...

"Well...that was unsuccessful." Frown.
