Hey guys! Sorry I haven't posted anything in FOREVER, school has been crazy and I haven't really had any major inspiration to write anything. Here's chapter one of a Harry Potter/Percy Jackson crossover that I wrote last summer for this fanfiction writing camp I took. Enjoy!

Chapter 1

It was Harry Potter's birthday. The Harry Potter's birthday, and the Weasley's house was full of excitement. Lily lead Teddy past the impromptu Quidditch game and the adults chatting amidst the garden gnomes who were ripping up Mrs. Weasley's prized hydrangea bushes. Teddy could smell a roast cooking in the kitchen, and his mouth watered at the thought of dinner. Teddy escorted her into the broom closet, sweeping away cobwebs and trying not to sneeze. He closed the door behind them, and as soon as it was closed, Lily blurted, "Teddy, I want you to teach me how to Apparate."

Teddy smirked, and said, "Sorry Squirt. Apparating's for adults only."

Lily scowled, and said, "Don't make me bribe you, Teddy, because you know I will." Teddy laughed, and Lily took a broom and used it to push him against the door, cornering him.

"Woah, those Beater trainings really are giving you muscles, huh Squirt? Alright, but you gotta convince me. Why should a twenty-two year old like me teach a twelve-year-old like you how to Apparate? Especially why I of all people should be your teacher," Teddy bargained, trying to wriggle out of Lily's grip. She didn't budge.

"Fine. I want to be ahead of the game when we learn in school so that I'll seem like the best in Ravenclaw," Lily said in a condescending tone. Teddy responded, "Must be hard being the only Potter in Ravenclaw."

Lily squinted at him, but continued, saying, "And the only reason I'm asking you is because I know nobody else will teach me. Also, you need a life."

Teddy laughed, causing his hair to go from his usual turquoise color to a bright, bubblegum pink. "Wow, Squirt, you got me there. Alright, let's go up on a hill and Apparate! Race you!"

Lily sprinted to a hill just out of sight of her mother's watchful eyes, and Teddy followed, panting by the time he caught up to her. "Ok Squirt, so there's these three D's to Apparating; destination, determination, and deliberation. First, you gotta think of where you want to go."

Lily shut her eyes for a second, then said, "Got it."

Teddy said, "Now, think of how much you wanna go there. Like with all your heart and soul, Squirt."

Lily shut her eyes, her forehead creased with wrinkles. She nodded, and Teddy said, "Now when I say three, you're gonna turn and think really really hard about where you want to go and how hard you want to be there. I'm gonna help you, but the thinking is all you. Ready?"

Lily nodded, and Teddy said, "One… two… three!"

Lily and Teddy and felt like the air was getting sucked out of their lungs, and all they could see was inky blackness. Teddy felt Lily slip away. Shit, he thought, she's getting splinched. He thought really hard about "the place Lily wanted to go", and felt him and Lily going in a direction, though he didn't know where they were going to end up. A dizzying second later, Teddy landed on his back on the top of a hill, but it wasn't the same hill. He rolled over and saw a giant green statue of a lady holding a book and a torch in a harbor, and he thought, Of all the places she could go, why America? After getting past the statue, he saw Lily had landed them on an island, an island that looked like it was about to get rained on. He looked to his right and almost threw up. There was Lily, but it wasn't all of her. Her right arm and leg had been severed from her body, or Splinched, because she didn't think hard enough about how much she wanted this, and there was so much blood. She was unconscious, and Teddy couldn't find her missing arm and leg. He started to panic, but then he saw a strawberry farm in front of him and three people heading towards them. Teddy sighed, and whispered to himself, "Oh, thank god, they're gonna help us."
