Mr Weasley's POV

These children were quite extraordinary, dressed to perfection in muggle clothing. The tallest boy looked much liked Harry except he was tanned, the girl, black hair and a silver headband and bracelet completed her punk style look. The last boy, well, he looked like a miny death eater.

"Ah, Mr Weasley, this is Percy, Thalia and Nico. I hope they will be most gracious of your offer to take them until school starts" the white centaur said whilst indicating the children.

"Chiron. I don't need this man to take care of me until school. I can just stay at the underworld." The almost death eater boy drawled.

"Now, now Nico. Don't be so rude. And no, you can't stay in the underworld, as only your father and Persephone can take care of you and get you to school." The centaur- Chiron- replied, like this argument had been made before.

"Oh suck up you lot" the Harry look a like- Percy- laughed "We will only go there for a year. Right Chiron?"

"Yeah sure, only there for a year. That is sooo believable that I might fall for it Percy. Of course we're not just going to be there for a year. We have to teach so we will be there for a lot longer" the girl who must be Thalia said as if that piece of news was obvious.

"Well. We must be going, my wife will soon be finishing dinner." I blurted out.

"Um, Chiron. What do we do about sacrificing food? If I miss it again Zeus will curse me for eternity." Percy asked uncertainly.

"Just ask if someone could create a fire and carry on as normal as you can" Chiron replied.

"Ok. Well byr then" all three children said and walked off past me.

Not knowing where they were going, I followed them. They past a magnificent pine tree and walked a bit further. Strange thing is, Thalia touched the tree with affection. Maybe she used to climb it or sit under its majestic branches.

"Well, children take my arms and we will be on our way." I said as soon as i caught up.

They took my arms uncertainly, and quite soon we were zooming in the blinding dark to The Burrow.
