Now if you can be sure that your seatbelts are securely fastened and that your tray tables are secured in the upright and locked position we will be stting down momentarily. Until then hear is some music to get you in the mood."

All the Potters get up and start dancing like crazy. Head banging and all.
Except for Pete who's looking at the magical wand as yet another blurry, silver orb begins to emit from it showing a large stone building and a door labeled "SECRET BACK ENTRANCE THAT NO ONE AT PS SCHOOL IS EVEN AWARE EXISTS" Then as suddenly as it appeared the orb bursts into tiny bits.

I'm taking Peter and heading out for the school straight away. Curiosity is getting the best of me and I'm hoping Flower can be found, what with the not so subtle clues from the wand. Anyone want to come along?

"TRRRRRRAAAAAAAAPPPPP!" the Potter kids shout in unison and TRRRRRRAAAAAAAPPPP as it happens is exactly what was needed to startled Jazaf from him slumber.
"What in the Nine spheres of hell!?" Jazaf bolts up to stand then falls to the chair beneath him. "Whoa! stood up too fast."
"Sir Jazaf! So glad you agreed to join us!" Sir Kei exaggerated and swept up Jazaf in a bear hug before he could protest.
"We're off to save the TRRRRRRAAAAAAAPPPP!" said one of the clones.
"Okay you," Jazaf points at the clone "I'm gonna call you Will. As soon as you kids learn some magic I want to see you for something."

The rooster squawks, giving the beady eye to the clones. Maybe their "magicks" would be able to cure his morphasizing (tm ;)) condition...
Taking a cue from BC, the Rooster-13 shows off his own manly arsenal: a razor blade tied to his left birdy-foot.
"Left over from the fights," the Rooster-13 caws. "Forty-four matches and I haven't lost one yet."

SR with Snarky's help quickly covers the shuttle with a large canvas tarp as to keep it's obviously modern appearance from offending the natives, then put up a crude tent made from another tarp and then set up shop.

and thus it was that - you're late! quiet in the back - for a lecturer i don't come CHEAP! My time is money - somebody else's.
now where was i?
quoting that learn-ed sauce, The Wytch-taker Guide to the 'Verse - we find that Pioneers and astrognats such as JJ. Whedon (from TIMEnear magazine)are correct to state that there is no concrete evidence, of any kind, of ALIEN life in the'verse - despite the hoo hah (lasting all of five seconals) surrounding the discovery of the mysterious moon of Latex - which of course turned out to be a hoax.
no evidence whatsoever.
except possibly the rock.
discovered completely by chance - and throwing the Captain's golf game off completely - the Rock, was determined to be - at least by those who were watching it plummet out of nowehere, to bounce off the roof of the ship, via the captain's head into a HOLE-IN-ONE -- intelligent, and, on analysis, older than any known rock previously hurled in a game of golf.
Imagine then -- the morbid and creepyfying hush that fell over the crowd (all of whom were to imediately form a new and dispiriting religious cult)- the hush that fell as the Captain,holding his swollen head - retrieved the ancient and offending interstella rock and -- holding it up so all could see, revealed upon it to be a word: A - WORD... in the beginning was the word...
and the word was
BUMP.

Great! So everyone ready to go? I saw we start off in about five minutes for the school. Shouldn't have any problem finding it with the little wonder of a wand there. Although, its clues are so very ambiguous, enigmatic even. If only there were someone who was good at interpretting such things. Alien things. Hmmm...
OOOH I have an idea! I'll be right back. Don't leave without me!
*Rushes back to the ship and gathers up a box from her secret stash of really cool stuff.
The box is labeled simply, Help.
Let's see I wonder how...
The box begins to shake and starts to expand and grow into a familar shape. A large blue Police box. The door opens and out steps...
THE DOCTOR! (well The Doctor clone anyway. You know the real man is far too busy with his own hero stuff. )
"Hi there! Welcome to Zanzibar! We could use some help with an potential adventure/disaster"

The group (me, Seryn, Simon, potter clones, BC, and whoever else is along for the adventure... sorry I can't recall whose all in the group going on to find Flower)sits down to rest against a brick ledge after nearly an hour of walking.
Whose brillant idea was it to walk?
Oh right, that would be me.
So, aside from the blisters and sweating the adventure part of the adventure seems to be on hold. I don't even know if were going in the right direction. We just need some sort of sign to let us know that...
"Hey guys look... " shouts Pete as he points down the block at a rather large billboard "WIZARD SCHOOL ENTRANCE" (you know if you're a wizard/witch, but not some crazy, kooky space adventurers looking for trouble... you need to go the other way... really GO AWAY!)

SR steps out of even deeper shadows and promptly smashes a bottle of Tree distilled starshine over the menacing figure's 'head' and shoves him into a torch mounted on the wall setting the cloak on fire. The figure is instantly engulfed in flames and runs of down a side corridor screaming.

After finishing singing "All Along the Watchtower", MT stood completely still for nearly an entire moment, unsure of what to do. He then decided that he should go take a nap.
Unfortunately, due to circumstances entirely under his control, he no longer had a place to nap. Therefore, he began to think really really hard, or maybe not so hard.
After thinking for less than an eternity, he recalled having a room aboard the Sereni-Tree, so he teleported his-self there.

In a Zanzibarbarian forest near Puffenstuff's school of Sorcery:
"Uh.. One. Uh... Two. Uh... Uh..."
Quincy sighs. Then she looks up into the eyes of her monstrously huge companion. "You can just say 'fore', Kronk. You don't have to count."
Kronk's gigantic brow furrows. Then he takes a deep breath, causing surrounding trees to lean slightly in his direction, and he bellows, "FORE!" This knocks some trees down.
Then he takes his giant maul and pounds the tiny golf ball repeatedly into the ground. When the ball is rendered down into bits in the middle of a large crater, Kronk turns toward Quincey and presents her with a big toothy grin (though some teeth are missing).
Quincey rolls her eyes. "Almost." She places her golf ball on a tee and selects a particular driver. "Here, watch me do it again."
Quincey realizes that while Kronk is not a particularly challenging opponent, at least he was a big help in constructing the new golf course.

Ok, first obstacle by passed. Thanks SR. You've got really good timing!
I hate to say it, but maybe groups of us should split up? Keep coms on at all times so we can keep in touch and meet back in a few hours hopefully with Miss Flower in tow.

Meanwhile far down in the cavernous basement a slight, but menacing hooded figure stares into a large crystal ball. "Oh yes, split up is exactly what you shall do.

Doing OK. 'Course, these Mai Tais haven't hurt me any!
I'm not sure we can top last year's party. Didn't a robot blow up or something and it became our Christmas tree?

Well, normally we'd wrap PsychicRiver in tinsel and strings of lights and prop him up in a corner... but... he doesn't seem to come around anymore...

Sorry for the absence, I just returned from sitting in a hammock and drinking mai tais, and Bahama mommas. Kinda required when in the Bahamas.
Where were we? Ah yes, attack of the clones... this never goes well.

*Out of a vast... nothing, a stirring sound occurs, and PsychicRiver appears out of nowhere, by teleportation.*
*He smiles as he breathes in the familiar air of the tree.*
*'Good to be home.' he thinks as he smiles to himself. For it has been a long time.*

Did someone call for a tree?

Of course, we also have that iron tree that Jazaf once crafted for us with his metal-shaping powers...

Thanks guys! It's great to be home.
I'm sorry I've been gone so long. It's been... interesting to say the least. I've had quite an adventure.
And as for my Christmas tree duties... well I think I can just settle for helping to decorate Jazaf's tree. 
*Goes over to join Mai & the others on the hammocks.*
*Sigh* I have missed the creature comforts of this place.
*Smiles at Mai* And the company, of course.
Speaking of... is my father around?
(OOC: I just randomly felt the urge to pop in and see how everyone was doing and just by chance TRM had mentioned me just two posts before. Random, huh? Great to 'see' you all again to. I hadn't forgotten this place, just been busy.)

Dad! Hi.
And yes, more indeed.
Oh, and incase I didn't already say this before... sorry for my theft. Or... I guess I just borrowed without permission really. The TARDIS, I mean.

Nothing like a comfy hammock, a nice drink, and the reunion of friends to make a day better.
So decorating. That takes effort right? Perhaps it can wait a little while. I seem to have lost the motivation to move for the moment. Ooh and we need the faerie lights to make it all complete anyway.

Aha, decorating! I have just the thing.

The place looks even more festive already.
Hey dad, you got a robot that makes mince pies?

No, that's the job for a talented chef!

How about Paula Deen or Alton Brown?
Heck, why choose one? Get both! Paula will kill us with delicious buttery treats and Alton will entertain as well as make us some tasty fare!
**watches the robo-deco-monkey swinging about the room placing lights and ornaments all over the ceiling and walls**
Well, the monkey is pretty entertaining as well!
