CHAPTER 2

PERCY POV

The train ride was really bumpy and Percy and Annabeth were constantly being rocked around but at least the train itself was nice. It had a cart that had odd candies suchas Drooble's Best Blowing Gum that lived up to its name or Bertie Bott Every Flavor Beans, that were every flavor, even the discusing flavor. The view was also good,from downtown London to large farms with heards of sheep and cows. Percy decided to nap for the majority of the train ride and he dreamed about how he was on thistrain in the first place.

Flashback

Percy and Annabeth were sitting on the hill together, cuddling, with Annabeth's head resing safely on Percy's shoulder enjoying the sunset when Chiron walked up,with the clicking of his hooves

"Sorry to ruin your moment but an old friend of mine has asked me for a favor and I was hoping you two could fill the call." He said

"Will me and Percy be together?" Annabeth asked fragily, not over the 6 months Percy was gone Chiron smiled

"Of course." Annabeth looked at Percy and he shrugged

"I'll do it." she said

"Same." Percy agreed

"Meet me at the Big House tomorrow and I will explain what you two will do." And with that Chiron left them to enjoy their moment as they resumed the position they had jus been in

*THE NEXT DAY*

Annabeth and Percy reported to the Big House and walked up to Chiron "Here is what you will do" Chiron said "First you go to the train station and go to platform 9 and 3 quarters." "That isn't really a station is it?" Annabeth asked "I will explain later now, Argus knows how to get you to 9 and 3 quarters catch the first train you can. But don't socialize and if someone asks for your name do not give it to them when you get to the destination you go to the small wooden hut by the woods edge. The person you meet will explain the rest and tell you your mission. But first you both will need these." And Chiron handed Percy a willow branch stick with a unicorns hair in the core and was 14 inches long. Then He handed an olive tree branch stick with a phoenix feather in it and 13 inches long to Annabeth. Then Percy burst out laughing

"You want me to...carry a...stick ?" Percy gasped out between bursts of laughter.

Chiron and Annabeth looked at him "You know what that is right?" Annabeth asked

"Ya, its a stick." Percy said matter of factly

Annabeth sighed, "No seaweed brain its a wand." She said shaking her head

"Oh, now I know how to use it." Percy said happily

"Really, what?" Annabeth asked

"Knock out." Percy said and bonked her on the head then scrambeled away

"Oh thats it." Annabeth said pulling out her dagger and chasing Percy around the room until finally Chiron came in

"Stop." He said sternly and they froze

"Now lets get serious and stop being ridiculous."

"Ok." Percy said with an impish grin then pointed at a lamp with his wand and shouted "Riddikulus" then the lamp shades exploded as a crack was heard throughout the room

"I'm not playing with the magical stick any more." Percy said embaressed

Chiron and Annabeth shook their heads in unison.

"Well, you two better get going." Chiron said shooing Annabeth and Percy off towards Argus and the car as they waved goodbye.

*END OF FLASHBACK*

As the train started to slow down Percy saw something in the distance. It was a huge castle. Percy bonked Annabeth on the head with his magical stick-er, wand because she was asleep and she woke up grumbling he pointed wordleesly towards the castle and she gasped with awe. Then she went totally ADHD and started bouncing up and down like an excited 6 year old. Looks like someone is hyper. They got off the train and saw a sign that said, Hogwarts Express. Below that sign was anoher sign that said, Welcome to Hogsmeade. Few people were getting off but there was one person, a lady, who was sitting on a bench who was short,fit,wearing robes, and had short spiky pink hair. And she was the one looking for them. Annabeth and Percy walked over to her and Annabeth handed the woman a note and asked

"Hello are you Nymphadora Tonks?" She asked the lady politely

The lady gave Annabeth a confused look then looked at the note, then smiled and said

"Yep, that's me, but don't call me Nymphadora. So, I'm Tonks, auror, wizard and supossed to meet you here. I'm guessing you are the unusual Americans? Don't worry, my dad was a demigod so I know who who are."

"Yes. I'm Annabeth Chase, arcitect, heroin and a daughter of Athena." Annabeth explained

"And I'm Percy Jackson, hero and a son of Poseidon." Percy said.

"Okey dokey, come with me." Tonks lead them to a wagon pulled by black skelaton-like horses with wings. The wagon went past the gates of the castle and stopped at a path about a quarter of a mile from the castle. Tonks lead them down the path intil they reached a wooden hut at the edge of the woods that surrounded the castle aka Hogwarts.

"This is the home of Hagrid, the groundskeeper." Tonks exclaimed wih a florish of her hand. She knocked on the door three times unil it opened. The three of them walked inside to see the largest man in the world talking to the oldest man in the world siting at the table inside the hut.
