Answer
is arriving — Look! The bus is arriving now.

Look! and now indicate an action happening at this moment. Use the Present Continuous: am/is/are + verb ending in -ing.
The bus is singular, so use is arriving. Arriving alone lacks an auxiliary, while are arriving does not agree with the subject.
