Harry
"O Iris, goddess of the rainbow, show me Wynette Jessephine, Camp Half Blood," Harry said and threw the single drachma into the mist. It shimmered, and the face of Wynette appeared on the watery screen.
She looked a bit confused at first, but then saw Harry and smiled.
"Hi Harry," She said.
OC - Wynette Jessephine, 15, Daughter of Hermes
Wynette wondered why Harry would suddenly Iris-Message her, but she decided to ask that later, as Harry's expression looked a bit urgent. But, as usual, she was still grinning from side to side.
"Hi Wyn, uh, Hermione and I have this problem, so we were thinking you could help us, uh," Harry glanced back at Hermione.
"We were thinking if you knew a lot more about Greek monsters, as we suspect that one of the professors in Hogwarts-"Hermione was stopped when Wynette sniggered.
"That one of the professors are allying with some Greek monsters, and we need your help to defeat You-Know-Who and that professor, Severus Snape." Hermione finished.
"And the monsters," Wynette said.
"Yeah so…could you, and some of your friends, come to Hogwarts?" Harry said cautiously.
"Sure, we'll be there by three," Wynette said, swiped her hand across the watery screen and took off in the direction of the Khione cabin.
Wynette turned the doorknob and swung it open. A blast of cold, snowy air made her sneeze. "Whoops, sorry!" She said to no one in particular.
The girl she had been looking for stepped to the door holding her sword, as if she expected to see a monster. "Wyn? What ya doing here for?"
"Harry said that he needed some help because he thinks that someone in his school," Wynette sniggered, "is allying with monsters. I'll tell you on the way, I needed to go get Raven."
Charlotte Lace, the daughter of Khione quickly sheathed her sword and followed Wynette to the darkest cabin.
They were walking halfway through the grass field when Edmund, son of Athena ran to catch up with them, suspecting that something was wrong.
"Going somewhere?" He said.
"Hmm, yeah, was thinking of asking you but…anyway, tell you, Char and Raven 'bout it at the same time," Wynette said.
~~TIME SKIP~~
Raven opened the door of the cabin to the sound of knocking on it. The saw a weird group of people, almost thought that it was another of Wynette's prank ideas but then dismissed the thought.
"What," Raven said, looking at each one of them carefully, one by one.
Wynette mimicked Raven's scrutinizing look, then said, "This takes long, but I have to tell you four people and I don't have time, so I'll just give you peeps a brief description."
"Dude you gotta wipe that smile off your face, or we won't believe you," Edmund said.
"Everyone keeps saying that, so that's why I don't! That's actually wrong, by the way. Let's not sidetrack, I'll be starting it soon." Wynette said.
"Start it now," Raven said and gave her a creepy death-glare.
"Fine, fine, since you want to. So a while before Harry IMed me and told me that one of the professors there is allying with Greek monsters, needs our help, want's us to come over, I said by three, and now's already two, need Raven's help. That's the summary guys! So, are you in the quest, or not?" Wynette said. "I'm in, if you were thinking of asking."
"I'm in," Charlotte said.
"Yeah," Raven said.
"Should I go or not?" Edmund looked like he was thinking pros and cons, benefits, losses…
"Choose a wise choice," Wynette said.
"Fine, I'll go!" Edmund said, a little too loudly.
"Well, I'm going to IM Harry now," Wynette said. "And, Raven, you're supposed to come."

After IMing Harry, Raven had a rough idea of how the house looked like from the outside. Wynette and the others were in their cabins, packing some important stuff and then they would be on their way to Mrs Weasley's house.
The first person done was Wynette, as she had stuffed everything she was bringing, including the extra drachmas Harry asked for. Deciding that Edmund would be next, she walked over to the grey-painted cabin to wait for him.
OC – Edmund Adrian Seine, 16, son of Athena
Edmund didn't think that Harry was in fact a nice person. Or maybe not. The way Wynette had said it was hard to actually believe that she was keen on going over to the wizarding world, especially that only Harry, Ron and Hermione knew them. Someone would of course try to stop them, be bad, like normal people do.
He trusted neither Harry nor Wynette. Charlotte maybe, but otherwise not. Maybe it wasn't such a wise choice. After all, could he say 'no' when Wynette was already starting to taunt him?
Maybe…it could be anything, really. He'll think about that later. Wynette would be waiting for him.
When he opened the door, he was right. Wynette was already standing there, bag slung over her shoulder and leaning on the doorframe, and her eyes giving the why-don't-you-think-this-is-a-prank look. Typical Wynette.
They found Raven waiting at the Khione cabin, so they walked slowly through the grass, without talking to each other. Wynette checked her watch.
"It's already two fifty-five, we'd better go," she said, just when Charlotte came out of the cabin.
"Everybody ready?" Raven asked. He held out his hand and everybody took it. Including a half-hearted Edmund. The shadows blended around them, and they were gone.

OC – Charlotte Lace, 15, daughter of Khione
When the feeling of speeding through darkness faded, she felt herself thrown against some mud.
The first thing she heard was Wynette saying, "This sucks, thank you." And Raven saying, "Was what he showed me, all your fault. You actually deserve this."
Charlotte picked herself off the muddy ground and looked around. Nice house, she thought, but it's surrounded by mud.
Then she noticed the even more muddy water on her left, and then she regretted thinking that falling in mud was bad.
She ran after Wynette, who was already at the house, and followed her in. She heard thumping sounds on the stairs and realized that it was Harry running down to greet them.
"Hi Harry," Charlotte said.
"Hi-" Harry was cut off by Wynette saying, "Catch the drachmas if you want them!" And threw them at him.
Harry whipped out his wand and said, "Accio drachmas!" And caught all the drachmas in his free hand.
"Hmm…nice." Wynette commented. Charlotte resisted the urge to backstab Wynette after what she had just done, except that she already disappeared back outside.
Harry
"Come, I'll show you where you can stay for five days then," Harry said, leading them up the stairs. "We need to discuss something since you're already here."
~~TIME SKIP~~
After eating dinner, Raven said that he wanted some time to be alone, Charlotte said that she wanted to take a cold shower, Edmund said that he needed time to think about something and Wynette said that she would be happy to just be alone and play her phone.
The Burrow was not built to accommodate so many people. Mr. and Mrs. Weasley were now sleeping in the sitting room, having shouted down Monsieur and Madame Delacour's protests and insisted they take their bedroom. Gabrielle was sleeping with Fleur in Percy's old room, and Bill would be sharing with Charlie, his best man, once Charlie arrived from Romania. Opportunities to make plans together became virtually nonexistent, and it was in desperation that Harry, Ron and Hermione took to volunteering to feed the chickens just to escape the overcrowded house.
"But she still won't leave us alone!" snarled Ron, and their second attempt at a meeting in the yard was foiled by the appearance of Mrs. Weasley carrying a large basket of laundry in her arms.
"Oh, good, you've fed the chickens," she called as she approached them. "We'd better shut them away again before the men arrive tomorrow... to put up the tent for the wedding," she explained, pausing to lean against the henhouse. She looked exhausted. "Millamant's Magic Marquees... they're very good. Bill's escorting them...you'd better stay inside while they're here, Harry. I must say it does complicate organizing a wedding, having all these security spells around the place."
Thinking that it may be quite a bad idea to keep trying to meet in the yard, he asked Hermione and Ron if they wanted a chat in his room. When they reached, they saw that the light was switched off, Wynette's phone emitting off a light glow. Raven was sitting crossed-legged in the darkest corner of the room, Wynette still playing her phone, Charlotte levitating a single snowflake and Edmund reading a history book. Other than the constant tapping of Wynette's fingers against the phone, the room was silent.
"Can we come in?" Harry asked, when Edmund tilted his head up.
M-kay, everyone! That's all! This is a hint: Something really AWESOME is gonna happen in the next chapter!
