A/N: I know there are a lot of stories out there about demigods going to Hogwarts, and this story starts out pretty much the same way as a lot of them. Hopefully, things will get more interesting in the future chapters.
Disclaimer: I do not own Percy Jackson and the Olympians, or Harry Potter, to my great sorrow.
"So I suppose you know why you're here, Peter Johnson?" Dionysus asked lazily, taking a big swig from his can of Diet Coke.
"Not really," I replied, exchanging a confused look with Nico who had been summoned there with me.
"I'll explain," said Chiron hastily, moving forward. "The thing is, Hecate wants you two to research on a certain... monster, of a sort. It's called a dementor, and apparently, it's a magical creature, so she's sending you two to a magic school in Scotland to study it."
My mind began to form more questions, and I couldn't decide which one to ask. There was a long silence.
"Why us?" Nico finally asked, breaking the silence. For a moment he looked rather nervous, but his face instantly changed into an emotionless mask. I stared at him for a moment, and then shifted my gaze to Chiron.
"We wanted the children of the big three to complete the quest," he said simply. "Jason and Hazel don't count because they're Roman, but we might have to send them as well if you seem to have a hard time researching. And Thalia doesn't count either because she's a Hunter of Artemis now, and she is under the guardianship of Artemis."
"In other words, we wanted to get rid of the most annoying demigods at camp and decided to start with you," Dionysus added.
"We don't know any magic, though," I said. The last thing I wanted was to go on this quest, and then either expose the fact I was a demigod or make a fool of myself when we were supposed to perform actual magic.
"Hecate has taken care of that. You can perform magic when on the quest, and she will remove the magic when the quest is over. You just need to learn a few spells, which you can learn at the school. Meanwhile, you need wands." Chiron pulled out two narrow, wooden boxes, and handed one each to me and Nico.
"Percy, yours is made of apple wood, with phoenix tail feather core, eleven and a half inches long. Nico, yours is acacia with threstal hair, nine and three-quarters inches long," Chiron said, referring to the long stick things inside the boxes. "They say 'the wand chooses the wizard', but we never tried it with demigods, and since we've tried to find wands that match your personalities as closely as possible, it's unlikely anything will go wrong."
"Wizard?" I asked, surprised, (of course, that would be the only thing that would stick to my mind.) "You mean people wearing long robes and pointy hats and long beards?" I hoped I was wrong because I didn't really want to grow a long white beard at the age of seventeen.
"Well," Chiron said hesitantly, "You've given a very accurate description of the headmaster of the school. You'll have to wear the... ah... 'pointy hats' and long robes to school, though."
"And why do we need to go to a school in Scotland to study this demon-whatever-it-is?" I asked. I felt rather frustrated, being sent on a quest immediately after I had fulfilled two Great Prophecies.
"You'll see," Chiron said mysteriously, winking at me. There was another long silence.
"When do we leave?" Nico asked suddenly. He really did seem nervous, I wondered why.
"Right now," Chiron replied. "One more thing - only the headmaster, Albus Dumbledore knows that you are demigods. Please try to keep it that way. If any problem occurs, or if anyone finds out, IM me as soon as possible." He tossed a small bag of drachmas at Nico, which he caught. "You can leave now."
The next thing I knew, Nico grabbed my arm and we were traveling through the shadows.
Please review! Your reviews help me improve my writing. I'll try to write longer chapters in the future.
