"That is very kind of you, but..."

"As you can see I've got Mr. Nettings helping me" Rebecca giggled a little "Is that meant to be sarcasm Mr. Nettings?" Rebecca asked

Cassandra smiled and said. "Well to travel from point a to point b in the least amount of time."

molly finally decided to try to apparate again...... even though very nervous, molly thought of the three d's. then all of sudden she looked down and a red hoop appeared around her. unfortunaltly, she left her whole left foot! "darn it" molly waited fro somebody to help her, and then, attempted again. thinking of the three d's... bam! IN THE HOOP AND ALL OF HER APPEARED! "finally!!! i did it!" she screamed with excitement. molly then waited for further instructions.

Micah held out his hand to Cassandra while nodding. "Correct but wait a second." He looked at Molly and sighed. "Excuse me! You can't be apparating without an instructor by your side! Please stand back now. By doing this, you are endangering yourself and many others."

Micah turned back to Cassandra and smiled. "Well. That's it. You're done. You're good. You've passed. Congratulations! Come back tomorrow for your license. Bye-bye. Peace. Chop-chop. Later. Adios amigo." He swayed his hands fervently towards the door and gave her a go-now look.

Micah smiled and winked. "You're a sharp one you are. Yes, please do go ahead. I shall observe you and the many others."

Rebecca smiled "Thank you" Rebecca focused on the hoop 'hoop, i want to be in that hoop, i want to be in that hoop NOW' Rebecca turned on the spot and appeared with one foot in the hoop and one foot out of the hoop

Eve thought and focused on the task in hand,there was a couple of people in the practise room,so she had to consintrate more.She thought of the tree D's and then closed her eyes.She felt her body get tighter,it was a weird feeling.And then everything went back to normal,and she looked around,she looked behind her and she realized she had Apparated.But one thing was wrong.She had left her fingernails behind.She smiled thought at her accomplishment.She practised a few more times.

Elizabeth entered the Apparition Test Room and looked around. Since she had not much work to do she decided to sto by and help Mr. Nettings in testing people. She looked around and saw him. Walking over to him she said, with a kind smile, "Good afternoon, Mr. Nettings. I was wondering if I could help you in any way."

"Come back where?" She said as he was pushing her to leave. "The ministry? This Office? What?"

Micah looked a little annoyed because of the many newbies trying to apparate without his or any other official's supervision. He heard Cassandra's questions and he turned around to answer, "Well my office obviously! Where did you think I was going to give it to you? The toilet?"

Hello everyone i am Armen Recard the newest member of the Apparation Testing Center if you need any help practicing let me Know.

Welcome to the Apparition Test Center in the Department of Magical Transportation. The test center is set up to resemble an actual classroom, with desks lined up in neat rows of ten across and five back. Mrs. Bella Greingoth, Department Head, and Mrs. Madison Masterson, Apparition Division Head, are circulating the room to assist with arrivals, test-taking, and departure. Employees of the Apparition Division are also circulating the room to help prevent possible cheating. Please take a seat, grab a quill, and begin your test. When you are done, you may use the portkey (again, up to your creativity) in the back of test center to transport you back to Hogwarts.

Part two:
Once you arrive at the Apparition Test Center, please roleplay your character taking the test. Simply complete the test, submit it, and you're all done! As soon as the test is graded, you may look for your apparition license on your post profile.

Deadline: Thursday, August 13th at 11:59 PM EST.

Madison walked around the room as the students began to show up. Once again, she was feeling under the weather but this time, she was baring a little more discomfort than usual. It was obvious that her tummy was lower than usual as the baby had dropped into position. This was the very thing that was making it hard to walk. Her back was hurting and she was waddling a bit more than before.

But she didn't complain. She was thrilled about everything: being in her new position at work, a baby on the way, her husband was about to be home for the summer, and Bella just made things so much easier.

Copernicus finished his test as efficiently as possible and then turned it in. He waved at Mrs. Masterson before heading back to the portkey at the back of the room. Ah... soon, he wouldn't need portkeys anymore at all. He grabbed the portkey that had brought him, and in a swirl, he was gone.

Constantine had taken a seat in a chair against a wall to supervise the coming and going of students, as near to his wife as he could get. He didn't want to be too close as to get in her way, but it was bothering him to see his lovely lady in so much discomfort.

"Madison," he whispered loudly for the second time, "please come and sit. You don't absolutely need to walk around, do you?"

Madison heard her name and looked up from her general walk around the classroom. Well, maybe there was a moment she could sit down but only for a little bit until more students came.

"Well, I want to make sure I do a good job," she whispered back as she slowly took a seat next to Neo. Well, this was even more uncomfortable than walking around. She began to sport a frown but played it off as if she were concentrating on the testing that was going on.

"And you can do a fantastic job," he encouraged, "just...from here. I'm getting worried every time I see you walking around," he said, slipping an arm through hers.

Deep breath. Pause. Okay. Good.

"I'm fine," Madison said, not pulling away from Constantine. Only if she had more cushion placed underneath her. Time to change the subject. "Bella and I have been working so hard to get things in order for this moment. I'm so proud of how everything has turned out." There may not be a lot of kids here but not everyone was of age and those who were, had probably already taken the test.

"Besides," going back to the walking around. "They say to do as much walking as possible." There were lots of things they want done as much as possible but not all of it was possible.

Even as she got up and started walking again, Constantine kept his hold on her and got up too. He was going to stay with her, no matter how much she made a fuss.

"You guys did do a good job," he nodded. "Even at the school...it was all well done," he smiled and looked around. Ugh...he had to tell her something...and the fact that he'd neglected to say it for THIS long made him rather fearful for her reaction.

"I...I need to tell you something. Mainly because I don't think I'll get another chance too," he whispered in her ear. Ohh...he was going to regret this...

There was something special about Neo being here with her at this very moment, even though summer was almost here and he was almost home. Madison always cherished their time together no matter what the length was.

Get another chance? Her eyebrows came in closer as her eyes made contact with him. "Sure, honey," she spoke softly with a smile. Everything was fine, she had to keep telling herself this because he had a strange look on his face.

Ohhhhh sweet heavens.

"Okay, well..." he looked around the room, trying to find the best way to state it. It was almost like the answer would come off those lovely kiddos test papers. Gosh dang it.

"I'm...I have to stay at the school for an extra week," he said quickly, "Right when the term ends. You see...you could have the baby before the term ends...but there'd be the week period when I can't be with you to help with the baby.

"And then there's the possibility that...you're late and you have the child while I'm still at the school..and then I won't be able to be there with you at the hospital," he finished quietly, diverting his eyes away to look elsewhere.

Madison's eyes watched Neo as he spoke. The smile from her eyes and lips began to disappear with every word he spoke until finally her lips parted as her jaw wanted to hit the floor. She was now completely, honestly disappointed, but....it was not his fault at all. Nope! Not at all! She looked off towards the two kids that were in the classroom at the moment taking the test and sighed heavily.

"Well...everything is fine," she said as now her eyes never went back to him. Instead, she ironed out the front of her blouse, straightened out the sleeves, gave a brush of a piece of hair from her face. "I have my brother...my mother..." the same people I've had my whole entire life so what would be different.

But...what if...no one could be there. NOPE! Everything was fine! Everything is fine Madi! No need to get upset! You can do this on your own if you have too. You are a....FOOL!

"Okay! So you have things to do, that's fine. Not a problem. YOU just do what you need too and I will do what I have too." She turned and started to make her way towards the back of the classroom. She was just fine! FINE! FINE! FINE!

DON'T TOUCH ME!

Okay, ouch. Major brush off there.

"You didn't even ask what it was about," he continued to whisper, following her to the back of the room. "I'm sorry...but the plans were made before you found out that we were going to have a child. If I had known after, I would have delayed this a little while longer..." He reached out and gently wrapped his fingers around her arm again. "At least let me explain what it's for," he said, his eyes pleading her gently.

Madison tried to find something to do but the emotions were just too much. Now she was beginning to be angry at herself for being and thinking of nothing but her condition at the moment.

PAIN!

Deep breath. Pause. Rest hand on the forehead. Close the eyes. Hold the breath a little longer....and exhale! Good! This gas was just becoming a little too much for her today.

Okay, now back to Neo. "I didn't ask because...most of the time you cannot speak about what is going on at the moment," she began at her regular voice then dropped it to a whisper. "And...I'm just trying to take in the words that you just spoke. It's a little hard with grasping the words 'I might not be there' for if the baby comes next week." Oh she really needed to stop talking because to her, she was making this worse.

"But, there is nothing we can do about that. We are just going to take this one day at a time." Oh Merlin's Beard. She was just going to call the baby....well baby...until they had time to chat about a name. OH.MY.GAWD. Our baby is nameless. <insertpainfullookhere>

"It's simple," he said, shaking his head a little in a quiet voice. He leaned in a little closer. "The Healer at the school...she said she can fix my back. And she's going to. But, I need to spend a week at the school to heal. I can try to talk her into shortening that significantly...but, I don't know."

"Have you been thinking about any names?" he went on, trying to ask a question that would maybe brighten the moment up.
