CHAPTER 1
Annabeth's POV
I half carried half dragged the unconscious Rachel through the massive double doors of the Big House and slammed them shut.
"Hey Chiron," I said as the centaur rolled into the room.
"Hello Annabeth. What brings you and Rachel here," he said, gesturing to the unconscious redhead on the floor.
"Another prophecy," I sighed.
"Really, that's interesting. What did it say?" Chiron asked. I recited the prophecy
"Users of magic
beings of mythology
unite to save the
man of Black
from the holder of the sky"
"Hm," Chiron pondered the prophecy for a while. "I can't say I have any idea what this means."
"I don't understand it either," I said. "But then again, prophecies are never easy to interpret."
"Nothing could be closer to the truth," Chiron replied. Suddenly, the door opened and I jumped in my seat. I turned around to find Malcolm walking towards us, a clipboard in hand.
"I finished the cabin inspection," Malcolm said.
"Thanks Malcolm!" I said, grateful for my half-brother's help.
"What did Rachel's prophecy say?" Malcolm asked as he handed me the clipboard. I was amused to find Hecate got a one. They probably accidentally blew something up again.
I recited the prophecy again for Malcolm. He too looked utterly confused. He sat down across from me and the three of us sunk into deep thought.
That didn't last very long, as Percy and Grover burst through the door.
"Hey Wise Girl," Percy said before noticing Rachel unconscious in the chair next to me. "Another prophecy?"
"Yep, right as we left the Artemis cabin," I replied.
"Hah, so you didn't finish the cabin inspection!" Percy looked triumphant with the look of victory on his face.
"Of course I did, Seaweed Brain," I started, trying not to laugh when I saw Percy's confused expression. "I just gave the clipboard to Malcolm to finish the inspection for me."
"Hey, no fair, that's cheating," Percy whined, sounding like a five-year-old.
"No it's not," I calmly responded, "It's playing to my advantages."
Malcolm nodded, "She's right, you know."
"She's always right," Percy muttered under his breath.
"And don't you ever forget that," I said, with a smug smile on my face.
Percy shook his head, "I'll never be able to beat you, Wise Girl."
"Ain't that the truth," Grover said as he nibbled on a tin can.
Percy sighed as he and Grover walked out the door.
"Ah," Chiron said. "I think I might have an idea for the prophecy."
"What is it, Chiron?" I asked eagerly.
"I'll explain later, but for now, please get Percy, Grover, Nico, Thalia, Lou Ellen, Katie, Travis, Connor, Piper, Clarisse, Chris, Leo, Calypso, Juniper, and Will and bring them here. I will try to wake up Rachel. Also, I am going to see if I can bring in Reyna, Jason, Hazel, and Frank."
Malcolm and I nodded and got up from our seats. I was excited to see my Roman friends again, but confused as to why they would be needed. We left the Big House and strolled towards the Poseidon cabin. Inside, we found Percy practicing his ability to control water by raising it out of a cup and turning it into different shapes.
"Hey Seaweed Brain," I said. Percy jumped, and the water splashed all over him. It would have been much funnier if Percy didn't have the ability to stay dry underwater.
"What was that for?" Percy complained.
"Chiron needs you at the Big House," I said.
"Another quest?" Percy looked annoyed.
"Probably, let's go, we still have to find a bunch of people." Percy, Malcolm, and I headed out the door.
Two hours later, after tracking down another fourteen people, everyone was situated at the ping pong table in the Big House. The table was now dented from the several knives that were stabbed at it. The room was filled with chatter, excitement, and laughter. I hate to say that it was normal for someone to have pencils in their nose but when it comes to Clovis anything is possible. Rachel had finally woken up about half an hour ago, so the campers were bombarding her with questions.
After a while, the ADHD demigods started to get bored. (It was probably not a good idea to leave all of us here without supervision.) The room grew louder with shouts and screams. Clarisse started to tackle the other campers, which ended badly for the lamp at the head of the table. Leo, Travis, and Connor started a game of soccer, which resulted in a shattered window. I personally didn't know how Chiron could stay on the phone with all of this noise. Sadly, we still had almost two hours until the Roman demigods were here. Unfortunately, being dyslexic, I couldn't read or work on my blueprints with all of this noise.
An hour and a half later, Chiron wheeled himself into the meeting room.
"Everyone, stop!" Chiron shouted, but no one heard him through the noise. He tried again, but the result was no different.
Finally, Piper stood up on her chair and yelled, "EVERYONE STOP, CHIRON HAS AN ANNOUNCEMENT!" That shut everyone up, thanks to Piper's charmspeak. The demigods instantly froze in time and robotically walked back to their seats and sat down.
"As you may already know," Chiron began. "Rachel has given us another prophecy this morning." Everyone's eyes turned to Rachel, who's cheeks became as red as her hair.
"I have called an old friend of mine, who I believe may be able to help us with this quest."
The demigods started bursting with questions. "Who is it?" "Where are we going?" "What are we trying to do?"
"I'll explain later," Chiron silenced the crowd of hyperactive demigods. " The Romans should be here any minute now."
Excited chatter filled the big room. Even I couldn't hold back my smile. I hadn't seen the Romans in half a year.
Suddenly, a loud knock was heard at the door. The noise stopped instantly as Rachel went to open up the double doors.
As soon as the Roman demigods stepped into the room, the Big House exploded with laughter and shouts. Piper couldn't be happier to be reunited with her boyfriend. Hugs and stories were exchanged between the campers. Everyone was having a great time.
After an hour, when everyone had calmed down, Chiron decided to make his announcement. "Okay, demigods, I have an announcement. The Roman's do not know this, but Rachel spouted another prophecy this morning."
All eyes turned to Rachel again, whose cheeks turned as red as a tomato again.
"Annabeth, can you please recite the prophecy?" Chiron inquired.
I repeated the prophecy one again.
"Users of magic
beings of mythology
unite to save the
man of Black
from the holder of the sky"
"Now, as some of you may have figured out, beings of mythology most likely means you guys. Demigods, satyrs, and nymphs are all part of Greek Mythology." We nodded in agreement.
"Does 'Users of magic' mean the Hecate cabin?" Connor asked.
"That is a good question, Connor. Although the Hecate cabin does use magic, they are also 'Beings of mythology'. So I don't think that is likely. However, I think I know what the line means. This may come as a shock to you, but witches and wizards do exist." Chiron said.
I was shocked, this didn't make sense at all. "But Chiron, that's impossible," I said.
"So are demigods," Chiron smiled at me. "But here you are anyways." Chiron did make a good point. I never would have believed that demigods existed if I hadn't come to Camp Half Blood.
"Anyways, a few hundred years ago, Hecate blessed a group of mortals with the power of magic. I think that is what the prophecy is implying." A murmur of agreement passed through the crowd. "I believe the first step for the prophecy is to go to a school of magic to get people to save whoever 'the Man of Black is'. An old friend of mine happens to be the headmaster of a schools of witchcraft and wizardry. He is more than willing to let you guys come to his school."
"What's his name?" Clarisse asked.
"Albus Dumbledore," Chiron said calmly. The room burst out laughing. Even I had to suppress my laughs.
"What kind of name is that?" Leo asked. He was literally rolling on the floor laughing.
"Okay, okay, I understand he has an interesting name, but please calm down." Chiron said.
" He does know that Dumbledore is an old english word for bumblebee?" I asked, which started another round of laughter. Soon the room went silent, but a few loose giggles were still heard.
"Anyway, I will be sending all of you to the school in two days. Leo, I need you and the rest of the Hephaestus cabin to fix up the Argo II." Leo saluted, causing a few people to laugh. That is how you will be traveling to the school, since it is in Scotland."
"Oh, that's cool." Everyone sounded excited by the fact we were going to Europe.
"One question, Chiron," Hazel spoke up. "What's the school called?"
"Hogwarts."
That single word caused an explosion of laughter among the demigods. All of the boys, plus Thalia and Clarisse, were laughing so hard they couldn't stand up properly. Even the rest of us, as calm as we are, were clutching our sides and doubling over laughing.
"Who would name their school Hogwarts?" Percy asked between laughs. Piper somehow managed to get control of herself and used her charmspeak to get everyone to calm down.
"Leo, please start fixing the Argo II, and then start packing." Chiron said.
Leo nodded. "Aye aye, captain." He left the Big House and headed to his workshop.
"Everyone else, please start packing, as you will be leaving in less than 48 hours." The demigods shuffled back to their cabins, while Grover and Juniper stayed in the Big House with Chiron.
Malcolm was already at the cabin, as he was not going to Hogwarts with us. I still smiled every time I thought of the weird name.
"Hey little sis," Malcolm said. "You gonna start packing?"
"Yeah," I nodded. I pulled out my lightweight, grey suitcase from under my bed and unzipped it. I packed everything, including an extra pair of jeans and a CHB t-shirt. I put in my Yankees cap, just to be safe. I also added a stack of books. I was actually kind of excited to go to Hogwarts. It would be interesting to see more people who had magical abilities. I zipped up my suitcase and sighed. This was going to be an interesting quest.
Two Days Later
(Annabeth's POV)
Today was the day. The Argo II was fixed and Festus was ready for takeoff. Leo had set the course for Scotland. I rolled my suitcase down the ramp to my room. It was still painted gray, and the walls were covered in bookshelves. I sighed happily. The Argo II was like my second home.
I went back upstairs where the rest of the demigods were waiting for Chiron to send us off. The centaur rolled out towards the enormous ship. "Okay, is everyone ready to go?" We all nodded.
"Before you go, I would like to mention one thing. Lou Ellen is the leader of the quest." Chiron said. The seven of us were relieved. We've had enough of leading quests in our life.
Out of nowhere, a tall figure appeared in front of us. She was tall and thin, with luscious, long black hair, and a long, deep purple gown. I immediately recognized her as Hecate. Immediately, everyone bowed deeply.
"Hello demigods," Hecate greeted. She searched the crowd for her daughter and smiled.
"I am here to give you your wands," she continued. "You will need them to perform magic."
Just then Percy jogged up. "I'm sorry I'm late," He panted, " I got sidetracked." In other words he slept in.
Everyone burst out laughing because not only did we not notice that he wasn't there but he just interrupted a goddess.
Hecate glared at him but didn't turn him into a weasel or anything. It probably had something to do with the fact that he saved Olympus twice. She then started to hand out various wands to the demigods, satyr, and nymph. Everyone got a different wand-
Percy: Silver lime with phoenix feather
Annabeth: Ash with unicorn hair
Jason: Oak with dragon heartstring
Piper: Rowan with phoenix feather
Frank: Elm with dragon heartstring
Hazel: Hazel with unicorn hair (Surprised?)
Leo: Aspen with phoenix feather
Reyna: Sycamore with phoenix feather
Nico: Blackthorn with dragon heartstring
Grover: Chestnut with unicorn hair
Thalia: Pine with phoenix feather (Percy and Nico found this incredibly funny that Thalia had gotten pine wood)
Lou Ellen: Mahogany with unicorn hair
Calypso: Holly with phoenix feather
Katie: Laurel with dragon heartstring
Juniper: Willow with unicorn hair
Travis: Redwood with phoenix feather
Connor: Poplar with phoenix feather
Rachel: Acacia with unicorn hair
Clarisse: Hawthorn with unicorn hair
Chris: Beech with dragon heartstring
Will: Red oak with phoenix feather
"Thank you, Lady Hecate," we all bowed.
"Go now, children, your quest is waiting," she said, and disappeared into a puff of smoke. We said our goodbyes to the campers and Chiron, and boarded the ship.
"Off to Hogwarts we go!" Leo shouted, and we took off in magical blue sky.
A/N Sorry for the wait Chapter two should be up soon! Please review It only takes ten seconds. Point out any mistakes and I will try to change them. Thanks!
