"The universe is in danger." Chaos's voice rumbles through the room, "and you are going to help save it." He takes a quick pause to breath. "I want you to go around the universe and convince some warriors to help fight in a war between this universe and the one known as Opeon, if we do not win all that you see before you will be burned to ash, and if we win, peace and prosperity will forever rage."
"What if I say no?" Percy asks.
"Than we will wait here for however long it takes you to say yes. The conditions of you doing this goes like this. Everytime you convince one group a portal will open for you to go to the next group of people. Once you have finished the last portal will take you to your home planet and you will not have to fight in the war if you do not wish to. If you fail to convince someone, than you will be stuck on that planet or place until you die or somehow manage to make them fight."
Percy realises that he has no other choice. "I will do it." He says, so that one day he will see Annabeth again.
"Good, now sign these contracts, and you will be of for your first adventure." Elizabeth handed him some papers and a pen. "Oh and Elizabeth will be joining you to make sure you don't kill yourself in some stupid way." Why does everyone think he is some Kelp Head?
Percy turns down Elizabeth's offer of a pen, saying he already has one and un-caps Riptide. In doing this he almost stabs Elizabeth in the stomach making Elizabeth glare at him, before placing the cap on the hilt of the sword to turn it into a pen. The ink comes out glowing, bronze as Percy rights down his name, not bothering to read the contract.
"Thank you for your corporation." Chaos says, he than waves his hand sending both Elizabeth and Percy through a portal.
Percy gasps as his eyes set upon a large, stone castle towering over a lake. "Dam, this is Harry Potter!" he squeals.
Elizabeth nodded, "Of course. Think of their spells, they would be perfect allies for the war. Also did you just squeal?"
Percy's eyes widen,"...No"
Elizabeth raised an eyebrow, "Uh huh." She looked toward the castle, "Shit, it's bigger in person." She looked around where they were, "It appears we are in Hogsmeade. And no we are not going to The Three Broomsticks." She added as Percy opened his mouth.
Percy pouted, "But whyyyyyyy?"
Elizabeth shook her head, "You demigods." she muttered before speaking louder, "Because we're here for a reason. Convincing wizards and witches to help with the war." Percy still pouted, "Besides it's extremely early."
Percy huffed, "Fine..."
Elizabeth nodded, "Perhaps we should go to Hogwarts? McGonagall is Headmistress-" she was cut off by Percy frowning.
"Poor Dumbles." Elizabeth shook her head before continuing, "So maybe we should try talking to her first."
Percy frowns, "Wait...so we aren't going to meet Harry Potter?" Elizabeth looks at him in disapproval.
"No, we are not."
Percy shouts at Elizabeth. "But, he is the most amazing person ever! And we came all this way, I must see him. He is my idol!"
Elizabeth roles her eyes. "Before you start wetting your pants in excitement, we got to go speak to McGonagall." Percy glares at her and starts to skip towards Hogwarts. Singing ,'I'm going to Hogwarts.' over and over again.
Elizabeth rolled her eyes and followed him slowly, "Am I in hell?" she thought. She caught up with Percy and he asked, "Hey so all that stuff-" he didn't finish that sentence as he faltered, Elizabeth has had a cool expression all this time but she looked at the ground sadly.
"Fake? No well the backstory and that. But the friendships I have with everyone, that was real." Percy nodded and they continued to Hogwarts in a comfortable silence.
They arrived at the giant, wooden doors in front of the castle.
