Annabeth's Adventure at Hogwarts
Disclaimer: I don't own these charectera or places.
Hello. My name Annabeth, Annabeth Chase. I am a daughter of Athena. I am 18. And I have been chosen to go on a quest, with out my amazing boyfriend, Percy Jackson, son of Poseidon around to go with me. And I am not to happy about that. Ever since his funeral I haven't really been happy about anything. It has been a year. And I still cry. I cry myself to sleep every night, and it sucks. Percy was the best thing that ever happened to me, and now he is in the underworld. At least Nico says that he's in Elysium.
"Annabeth," my half brother, Malcolm, said, "Chiron needs to see you in the big house."
So I went to the big house, looking for our camp leader Chiron. I heard his horse hooves clomping in, I didn't forget to mention that he was a centaur did I, oops, my bad. Anyway, eh cam in saying, "Annabeth, the goddess Hecate asked for you in particular for this quest. She wants you to go to a special school and train to be a wizard. She wants you to see to the fact that one boy is not hurt. Her name is Albus Severus Potter. A very evil man just broke out of wizard prison, Azkaban, and seems to be hunting him down for who his father was. He has siblings, but they are other demigods' responsibilities. Please go and get Clarrise from the arena and send her to me. Thalia will be there as well, in the year below you. You leave for England, where the school is in 2 weeks. You will be there for a few days before you go to school. It is a boarding school. And Annabeth, I think that this will be good for you. You haven't really done anything since, well, you know." Chiron is right about that. Ever since Percy died I have been moping around and drawing bad architecture. But this sounds like an amazing opportunity. I am actually sort of excited for this.
Two Weeks Later
The flight was long and boring. Thals and I took a red eye, so she slept the whole time. I can't really sleep though, not without the dreams coming. Dreams of Percy, our first kiss, the time he showed me the ocean floor's amazing coral. I wake up crying. Crying is not fun.
Hecate's blessed ones' spell books are riveting. They have a spell for everything, and learning enough to fit in to a 7th year class will be hard. Thals only has to learn enough to be in 5th year. We have been practicing with the Hecate cabin for the two weeks since Chiron told us, and it has been super fun. My favorite spells are the really useful ones, such as Accio. It brings anything you want to you. My siblings hate it when I do it in my cabin. I think it's funny, their faces are priceless.
The thing that I like most about the magic is that it gives me something to think about besides Percy. It seems like this was planned almost. Giving me something to think about now that Perce is gone is actually semi-working. I still can't sleep though, which is the worst part. I am lying awake in a hotel-like tavern called the leaky caldron. Today we went to a place called Diagonal Ally to but our pets and robes. We also met with the headmaster of. Hogwarts, a woman named Minerva (no, not my mother's Roman form). She talked to us about Hogwarts' layout and our class list. She then told us about the school history and houses. I want to be a Gryffindor or a Ravenclaw. Thals wants to be a Gryffindor as well. Minerva, or Professor McGonagall, told us that we would have to be sorted into them by an enchanted hat. That should be interesting.
September 1st
Thalia and I stepped into King's Cross very confused. 9 and 3/4 what kind of platform number is that? And how do I get there? "Are you new?" Said a girl with long red hair, she was with her brother, who had darker red hair. "Are you going to 9 3/4 too? I would guess since you have an owl as well," I replied.
"Yes, we are, I'm Lily Luna and this is my brother, Albus Severus." The girl, Lily Luna, said. Albus Severus, oh, that's him! I realized. Thals had a similar look of realization on her face.
"Er, yes, we are trying to get to Hogwarts too, but we can't seem to find the platform." Thals said. "We see nine and ten, but not nine and three quarters."
"Right this way," Lily said, running through the brick wall right near them.
Thalia, the daring one, went right behind. I hesitated.
"Really, it's fine, we do this every year," Albus Severus said, "And please, just call me Albus, or A, Albus Severus sounds so, well, mature? I don't know, I just don't like it very much. And you are?"
"Annabeth, I am a new 7th year. I'm American, but you can probably tell by the accent."
"Well Annabeth, let's go, you first, so you don't chicken out. My parents are on the other side, you can meet them if you like."
"Sure," said Annabeth, going through the wall. She went over to Thalia, Lily, and Lily's parents as Albus came through the wall. He followed her.
"Mum, Dad, this is Annabeth, she's a new student like, what's your name?" Albus said.
"Thalia," Thals replied. "I already met your parents. Lily and I are going to find a compartment." She winked at me and left. Winked, actual winkage. She's mad if she thinks I could ever like Albus. He's so, not Percy. Percy. I miss him so much, but Albus... No, Annabeth stop. You love Percy. But, well...
"...Yeah, she's in my year, but we need to catch the train. Love you, we'll write." Albus said and pulled me along with him. "Let's find my cousins, I think they got here earlier, so we'll sit with them. Oh, and Annabeth,"
"Yes?"
"Welcome to the crazy world of Hogwarts."
