Halfbloods at Hogwarts
By: Greekmythologyforlife
Author's Note: Setting is after the Giant War far enough that Percy and Annabeth only have a few flashes back to Tartarus. Also, it is Harry's fourth year. Just pretend like they exist in the same time period (21st century) and pretend like the time is peaceful right now. Voldemort for some reason has taken a break for a year.

Annabeth's POV
"What could be so important that I had to call off my date with Seaweed Brain?! I mean come on! First the Titans, the Gaia, what more can one demigod possibly do?! Ugh and now I'm talking to myself. I really need to stop hanging out with Percy so much, he's starting to rub off on me."
"Ahh Annabeth, do come in." Chiron said in his horse form as I entered the Big House. "So, who's winning the game?" I asked him. "None of your business Anniebelle." Mr. D replied with a snarl. Chiron must be winning.
"What do you need Chiron?" I asked. Impatient and wanting to see Percy, I might have come across ruder than I intended. "Well, I'd like for you to get Percy, Piper, and Leo before I tell you this." Chiron replied patiently. "OK." and with that I turned on my heel and left the room; my mind buzzing with all the things that could be going on for Chiron to summon four demigods not to mention the fact that they were all part of the seven. "Ugh! I hate not knowing things."
I ran to go get Piper first. "Piper!" I yelled on my way to the Aphrodite cabin. As soon as I burst into the door, I spotted her. "Piper, Chiron wants you at the Big House." I told her as I was walking out the door. Next, I turn to find Leo. He's probably in Bunker 9 tampering with some nuts and bolts. As soon as I get in the door, I am met with an enormous pile of tools, metal, and a bunch of other things that I've never even seen before. "Leo! Where are you?!" I shouted.
Leo's POV
I thought that I heard someone enter the bunker. Someone was calling my name. "Here!" I yelled back. Soon the stranger called out, "Leo! You better come out where I can see you in the next ten seconds or I swear, I am coming after you!" I froze. I know that voice. Only a certain daughter of Athena could threaten you that easily and scare you to death on the spot. I quickly scrambled to get to the front, but I may have forgotten that I put my most recent project on the floor. Loud clanging echoed throughout the bunker. Finally I made it out to where Annabeth was looking at me with a steely glare. Holy Hades that girl is scary. "Wh-what do you need Annabeth?" I stammered trying to smooth down my grease covered shirt. Smooth Valdez, now you just look like a scared little girl. "Chiron need you at the Big House." Annabeth said bluntly as she turned to walk out the door. "This is what you scared me half to Hades and back for?!" I exclaimed. "Yup!" she replied cheerily. I stared at her, rooted in the spot, as she jogged toward the sword fighting arena.
Percy's POV
I see Annabeth running in my direction and call out to her. "Hey Wise Girl," I say expecting something along the lines of "Seaweed Brain" in return. Instead, she runs right past me and calls out, "Chiron. Big House. Now." "What? Hey! Wise Girl! Ugh. Well, nothing to do but follow her." I thought as I headed to the Big House.
Annabeth's POV
When I entered the Big House, I saw Chiron and Lou Ellen, daughter of Hecate waiting for me. I decided to just sit down and wait for an explanation. Once we were all gathered around the ping pong table Chiron asked me to Iris message Jason, Nico, Thalia, Hazel, and Frank. "Okaaaayyy." I said, drawing out the word as I got off my perfectly comfortable chair and moved to the water basin in the corner. Three Iris messages later with Thalia, Jason, Hazel, Frank, and Nico all listening in, Chiron began to speak.
"I know you all are wondering why I brought you here." Chiron stated as he moved to the front of the room. "Yeah," I replied, "you only call demigods to the Big House when something bad is about to happen." "I agree with Annie," Leo said as I sent him one of my death glares, "why am I here when I could be doing some very important things in Bunker 9?" "Well, I assume everyone know of the goddess Hecate," Chiron said. "Of course!" I exclaimed, "Lady Hecate, goddess of magic, witchcraft, the night, moon, ghosts, and necromancy." I think I heard Percy mutter Wise Girl under his breath so I sent him a look. "Correct Annabeth. It seems as though some time ago, Lady Hecate blessed a group of mortals with a small amount of magic. Those beings are called wizards. Murmuring could be heard throughout the room. "What! Wizards can't be real, they are just a myth. Wait. If demigods are real, why not wizards." I thought to myself.
Once I tuned back in, I heard Lou Ellen chime in and say, "It's true. Wizards do exist. My mom told me and I was sworn to secrecy...that is...until now." Chiron continued, "Since that time, the wizard population has grown and formed its own society hidden among the world of mortals. Muggles as they call them. Anyway, one of the best wizarding schools in Europe is located in Scotland called Hogwarts. It..." Chiron was then interrupted by fits of laughter from pretty much every demigod in the room. "Bwahahaha! Who would name a school about a pig's pimples?!" Leo panted between fits of laughter. This made everyone laugh even harder.
After about 10 minutes, Chiron was finally able to continue. "As I was saying, Hogwarts is a wizarding school in Europe. One of my old friends Dumbledore invited Camp Half-Blood and Camp Jupiter to participate in a tournament that has not been held for some time due to other rather unpleasant occurrences. Now, I have decided that 15 demigods will be the representatives for both camps. Those demigods are Percy, Annabeth, Nico, Thalia, Clarisse, Conner and Travis Stoll, Katie, Piper, Leo, Lou Ellen, Will, Hazel, Frank, and Jason. All of you will be provided wands that are specifically made for you by Lady Hecate and respond to your thoughts so that you are able to be at the same level of skill as the other wizards in your grade level. You will get to Hogwarts by using chariots that you will construct. "WHAAAT?!" Thalia, Percy, and Nico exclaimed. "I-I can't fly! Zeus...air...shoot...sky." Percy stammered. Nico looked like he could faint and was staring blankly into space. Thalia was as pale as a ghost. "Don't worry. Zeus has given you permission to fly just this once." Chiron reassured them.
Chiron continued, "As I was saying, once you get to the school the wizards will be having their start of the year feast, so make a grand entrance and put on a show. Show them what you can do. You will be at Hogwarts for the entire school year so I have arranged for Dumbledore to provide you with training grounds and Lou Ellen will put up an anti-monster barrier to protect the wizards. Is all this understood?"
Everyone nodded. Chiron continued, "Good. Go tell the rest of the half-bloods what I've told you and be ready to leave tomorrow. You may go." As soon as he said that, we all scrambled to get up, get packed, and make our chariots. Holy Hades that's a lot to do! I hurried to catch up with Percy.
"Hey Seaweed Brain."
"Hey, Wise Girl."
"I'm sorry I had to cancel our date. Chiron needed me at the Big House and I didn't know what for until now."
"It's fine, as long as I get the rest of the day to spend with my gorgeous girlfriend," Percy said as he put his arm around my shoulder.
"You are such a Seaweed Brain."
"But I'm your Seaweed Brain."
"You are so cheesy." I said as I pecked him on the cheek and ran off to pack.
Percy's POV
"Bye Wise Girl!" I yelled after her as I stood there watching her disappear into her cabin I recall Chiron saying something about a chariot. "Hmm, I wonder if I could convince Blackjack to help me out." I thought to myself and headed to the stables.
"Blackjack! Where are you?" I shouted into the stalls.
"Right here boss. You wouldn't happen to have any donuts on you?"
"No, I don't have any donuts and I've told you a thousand times not to call me that."
"Whatever."
"Well, I was wondering if you could fly me somewhere in a chariot."
"Where?"
"A wizarding school in Scotland."
"Whew that's a long way boss. I'll have to get another pegasus to help out and in return get some sort of reward. As in...maybe some...donuts."
"Okay, okay I'll pick you up a dozen donuts before we leave. Be ready by tomorrow."
"Okay boss but you better have those donuts."
"I know, I know, now go do whatever pegasus do." I said over my shoulder as I left the stable.
The Next Day
Annabeth's POV
After we had said our goodbyes, informed our parents, and gotten everything together, we were all ready to leave. "Everyone got what they need?" I yelled to the others spread out around the top of Half-Blood Hill. I was met by a mix of "Yups, yeahs, and a few loud shouts." The Stolls of course were responsible for the shouting.
"Ready to go Wise Girl?" Percy asked.
"Yeah, I'm just a little nervous."
"Don't worry, you've always got a very good-looking boyfriend to back you up."
"Haha, thanks Percy."
Just then Lady Hecate flashed in right on time to give us our wands. Once everyone had their corresponding wand tucked away safely in their trunks, Chiron gave us some last minute tips. "Be careful around the wizards, NO pranks and NO scaring the little kids." Chiron said, finishing off by giving Clarisse, and the Stolls a look. The next thing I knew, we were in the sky flying in a "V" formation with mine and Percy's chariots at the front.
Looking back at everyone, I finally get a chance to admire the designs of everyone's chariots. Percy's had two pegasus pulling it, Blackjack and another startling white pegasus named Silver. Percy's chariot was made of pure water with wheels created out of intertwined seaweed. My chariot was being pulled by two large grey owls while the chariot itself was a steely grey color with battle strategies and words of wisdom etched onto the side of the chariot in gold lettering. Leo did a fantastic job with his. The chariot was literally on fire as it was pulled through the air by some automaton horses, much like the dragon Festus that he made for the Argo II. Piper's practically screamed Aphrodite. With the pink body carved with persuasive words, it was almost like mine but more….pink. As for Jason, well…..his looked like he was floating on air. The wind curved around him as he stood levitated thousands of feet into the air while being pulled by Tempest and another ventus. Nico's looked like death. Literally. Formed by shadows and driven by skeletal horses, his was definitely the most intimidating. Thalia's was about the same as Jason's but she was using a different element. Lightening. The chariot was completely made of lightening which cackled and sparked continuously and it was pulled by two fearsome eagles. The blood red chariot with weapons attached to the body being pulled by vultures was none other than Clarisse's chariot. Frank's chariot also screamed "war." His was basically identical to Clarisse's with the exception of it NOT being loaded with weapons.
Thankfully Katie's chariot was a little less...how you would say….warlike. Hers was made of vines with flowers in between the leaves and was pulled by doves. Conner and Travis had their plain gold chariot stocked with pranking supplies. No surprise there. As for how they were flying, of course if you could put wings on shoes, why not put wings on a chariot? Lou Ellen's dark violet chariot had an aura of magic around it as it was pulled by ravens. Will's chariot was gold with poems and prophecies engraved on its sides. His was also pulled by ravens. The most multicolored chariot had to be Hazel's. Its body was made up of several different types of gems and metals that she summoned from the earth and was being pulled by hellhounds that were enchanted to fly.
After what felt like hours of flying, we finally approached a medieval-looking castle. I think that I might faint from the beauty of the architecture. My mind and mouth literally stopped working for a whole sixty seconds. "We're here! I was given a message from Chiron that the headmaster wants us to land in a clearing of land called the quidditch field so that the students could see us coming."
Percy's POV
I heard Annabeth give directions to where we should land so I just followed her. I kinda had to know where I was going seeing as I was in the front. Soon we were landing and in the stands around the field I saw people gawking and staring at us like we were aliens from Mars. As the "Savior of Olympus" I get stared at a lot but this is just uncomfortable and weird. After we landed, we were immediately greeted by some old dude with the name Dumbledore. Next thing I knew, we were being introduced. *sigh* Here we go again.
