Percy

"But why me?" Thalia asked.

Percy looked over at her in surprise.

"I mean, this quest falls under the expertise of Sage and Nico, and I understand why Percy would need to go, but Jason would be a much better a choice than I would, Annabeth too."

Chiron turned to her sternly,"I understand you're confusion, Thalia, but this isn't a quest from me. Both Lord Hades and Lady Hecate wanted you four specifically and would only tell me those details."

Percy nodded, still uncomfortable with the decision. Anything from Hades was bound to be more trouble than it was worth, especially considering Lady Hecate was also involved. What worried him more, was the fact that they knew nothing about the quest, except for the fact that it was in Scotland. But even that brought up the question of how were they going to get there.


Hecate looked at the four of them sternly,"A long time ago, I gifted a group of people with special abilities. Like my own children, they could do extraordinary things, known as magic. However, they channeled their abilities through wooden items, known as wands. Hence, they became known as wizards. Over a time a time span of thousands of years, these wizards created their own society and government system, branching out across the world, although, mainly staying within Europe. In the past many enemies of this "wizarding world" rose up, but were defeated each time. One man, a man who has killed many people in his conquest has risen up again, but has been ignored by the wizards, despite countless hints and stories about him." She sighed,"Tom Riddle has cheated death, and is looking to enslave the wizarding world, along with all muggles, their term for non-magical people. I need you to infiltrate the school that is the center of these events, and protect Harry Potter, the boy that defeated Tom Riddle. While doing so, I need you four to kill Tom Riddle."

The entire thing left the four of them completely stunned.

Percy then erupted,"WIZARDS! I JUST DEFEATED GAEA, I ALMOST DIED! NICO, SAGE AND THALIA WERE IN A WAR AGAINST GIANT KILLER POTTY SLUDGE! NOW, YOU EXPECT US TO GO ON A QUEST TO A WIZARDING SCHOOL FULL OF MAGIC AND WIZARDS and..."

If looks could kill, Percy would have been sen't to the underworld already. Hecate stopped him mid sentence, and put a hand on his head, creating a tingling sensation to spread down his spine. She did that to each of them, leaving them a tad bit dazed.

"I each gave you my blessing, giving you the magical ability each wizard has, and three years of the past education you would have learned had you gone to the school, along with everything you need to know about this world."

She smiled.

"You leave in half an hour."

At this the four looked at her in surprise.

"What about our things?" Sage asked, looking at her worriedly, not wanting to ask the real question.

"Your things will arrive at your lodging location, in a small wizarding town outside of the school, now, please hurry, your flight leaves in in twenty-five minutes."


At the word "flight", Percy would have backed out immediately, except for the fact that Argus shoved him, Sage, and Nico into the car, and Thalia shoved him, Nico, and Sage onto the plane, before strapping them in tight enough to kill. Nico shut his eyes tight, and clutched the armrest so tight, his knuckles turned white. Thalia got out an Ancient Greek book, and merely began to read, although she flinched when they started to lift up. Sage accidentally almost broke the wrist of Nico when they started to move, but let go as soon as he winced. Percy was the same way, every single time they hit turbulence, Nico swore he could see the sea rise up 60 ft. He was also pretty sure that Zeus was messing with them every time the plane hit turbulence. Basically, for any other passengers, it was a very long flight.
