Hello! Today I bring to thee... another update! Btw, I lied. I decided this will actually be in Thalia's POV. There isn't really much that could go on in Harry's perspective right now, so I decided on Thalia instead. I have a few ideas for Thalia, so you will see a bit of her in the coming chapters. I don't really know how Thalia's POV would be like, as there is none of that in the entire two series, so if she is OOC, please tell me how I can improve it. Enjoy!

Oh, right. The reviews. So... the name of the dragon guarding Camp Half-Blood is Peleus, who, as Risa Silvara said, is technically guarding the Golden Fleece. Congrats to FanFiction'BoutPJIsLife, Risa Silvara, Nyra (Guest) and Huffleclaw sparkspixie7904 for getting that correct! Cookies to you! (::) (::) (::) And Luke got his scar from the dragon Ladon, who scratched him during his quest to the Garden of Hesperides, which was correctly answered by FanFiction'BoutPJIsLife, FiTeamFreeWill, Risa Silvara and Nyra (Guest). Cookies to you guys as well! (::) (::) (::)

A MASSIVE thank you to Trinity Rebel for taking time out of her day to find me on Wattpad, I appreciate it so much! (::) (::) (::)

Thanks to everyone who reviews, they make me really happy! XD (::) (::) (::) (::) (::) (::) (::) (::)

Thalia

Okay, so Thalia wasn't very fond of heights.

Yes, yes, ironic. Daughter of Zeus, princess of the sky and all that. Honestly, she thought that Jason had gotten the better end of the deal. Up in the sky, he looked right at home as if he spent half his life with his head in the clouds. For all she knew, he did.

Gripping her pegasus tightly with her knees, Thalia chanced a quick glance around. Beside her, Annabeth, Percy, Piper and Leo were riding their pegasi, chatting and joking and generally looking a lot more at ease than herself. A few metres ahead of them, Frank the Giant Eagle spread his wings out, soaring through the sky as Jason flew beside him, superman-style, and engaged him in a one-sided conversation, apart from the occasional cry of agreement from Frank's beak. Chiron had decided that Hazel and Nico travelling in the sky would be too dangerous, and so instead they had shadow travelled with Mrs O'Leary and had probably already reached their destination. Looking back on it, Thalia wished that she had volunteered to go with them as well.

After being blessed by Lady Hecate, Thalia hadn't really felt any change in herself. Judging by the look on her friends' faces, though, it must have felt a bit like being blessed by Lady Artemis and becoming an immortal huntress. If she wasn't a bazillion feet in the sky, Thalia would have snickered as she remembered the look of awe on Piper's face.

Speaking of the Hunters, Thalia was extremely miffed. She wasn't at all willing to part with her Lieutenant duties for an entire year, all the way to England, no less, but both Chiron and the prophecy dictated, and who was she to argue with the most ancient Oracle in history? At least there would be a Christmas break.

Thalia shut her eyes tightly as her pegasus put on an extra spurt of speed. They were already running slightly late because of farewells. Piper and Jason had to practically drag Leo away from Calypso, and Will had fretted over Nico's health for a good half an hour, giving him unnecessary check-ups and health procedures. Frank had to Iris Message Reyna to let her know that he had to desert his praetor duties for a year. She hadn't been happy, but understanding the importance of their quest, she'd reluctantly agreed.

After more than six hours of non-stop flying, (Let's just pretend that pegasi travelling is really fast, OK? I know that by realistically it should take a really long time... but just bear with me) Thalia was ready to dive off her pegasus. She was seriously considering it too, until Frank waved his wing at them from his position at the front, indicating that his super sharp eagle eyesight had spotted their destination.

Percy made a quick gesture at all the pegasi, and immediately, they started to make their descent down into what looked like an abandoned warehouse.

When they finally touched down, Thalia stretched out her spine, which was stiff from the rigid posture she had adopted for the past few hours, and watched as Percy gave each pegasus a few doughnuts from his backpack and sent them on their way. Thalia was glad to see them go, she really didn't enjoy the whole flying thing.

Once the pegasi had all disappeared, human-Frank looked down at the sheet of paper in his hand. Seeing as he was the only non-dyslexic demigod out of all of them, he had been given instructions to meet up with Hazel and Nico at a certain place. She wouldn't know where, she hadn't exactly been listening when Chiron had told them the details (ADHD, anybody?), and judging by the expectant looks on Percy and Leo, they hadn't either.

"Okay." Frank cleared his throat. "Let's first get out of this warehouse, then we have to look around until we find a pub called the Leaky Cauldron It's an inn as well, so I think we have to stay there for the night, as school term begins tomorrow. So—"

"What's a pub?" Percy interrupted, glancing at Annabeth.

Annabeth sighed and fiddled with her camp necklace. "Seaweed Brain, you weren't listening when Chiron explained, were you? A pub is what the British call a bar or a tavern."

Percy frowned, before turning his lips upwards in a smirk. "What's the point in listening when I have you to tell me everything, Wise Girl?"

Thalia watched on in amusement as the two lovebirds bickered, until Leo finally intervened.

"Um, not to be a party pooper or anything, but shouldn't we get out of here first? Who knows what monsters are hiding in those shadows." He shuddered.

Thalia snorted. "If there were monsters, they would definitely already be alerted to our presence, with all the noise those two are making. But Leo's right, we should get out of here."

Annabeth and Percy turned red, and without further discussion, the seven demigods trooped out into the warm September sunshine.

Piper frowned. "This looks like a pretty ordinary street to me."

There were sounds of assent from the rest as Thalia took in her surroundings, scanning for danger; a habit every demigod had become accustomed to over the years.

Piper was right. It certainly did look like how a normal London street was expected to look like. As they started to walk around, looking for the 'Leaky Cauldron', they passed book shops and music stores, hamburger restaurants and cinemas, but nowhere that looked as if it could sell you a magic stick. This was just an ordinary street full of ordinary mortals. Maybe this was all just some elaborate joke that Chiron and Hecate had cooked up, and Thalia could return to the Hunt.

All of a sudden, Piper stopped. Thalia stumbled and bit back a curse, and was only saved by quick reflexes accumulated from a lifetime of battle (the ADHD helps as well).

"What the Hades did you do that for?" Leo grumbled from his sprawled out position on the ground.

Piper glared at him as he picked himself up. "Guys, come have a close look. I think I've found the Leaky Cauldron, it just seems to be covered by the Mist or something because the mortals can't see it.

Everyone gathered around, and Thalia saw that there was indeed a tiny, grubby-looking bar. If Piper hadn't pointed it out, Thalia wouldn't have given it a second glance, it was that easy to miss. The people hurrying by didn't glance at it. Their eyes slid from the big book shop on one side to the record shop on the other as if they couldn't see the Leaky Cauldron at all, which they probably couldn't. Slowly Thalia followed the others inside.

For such an important place, it was very dark and shabby. A few old women were sitting in a corner, drinking tiny glasses of sherry. One of them was smoking a long pipe. A little man in a top hat was talking to the old bartender, who was quite bald and looked like a toothless walnut. The low buzz of chatter didn't even pause when they walked in.

Cautiously, the group approached the counter.

Frank started them off. "Um, is this the way to..." he checked his sheet of paper before looking up again. "...Diagon Alley?"

The bartender sighed and looked up impatiently from where he was polishing a glass, as if he got this question a lot. "Over there through the back door. Follow me, I'll show you."

The bartender introduced himself as Tom and led them through the bar and out into a small, walled courtyard, where there was nothing but a trash can and a few weeds.

"Three up... two across... " he muttered.

He tapped the wall three times with a stick he had fished out of his pocket.

The brick he had touched quivered in the middle and a small hole appeared. It grew wider and wider until a second later they were facing an archway large enough even for Chiron, an archway onto a cobbled street that twisted and turned out of sight.

"Woah," Jason breathed. "That was pretty cool."

Thalia privately agreed.

"Diagon Alley." Tom muttered. He squinted carefully at them. "American accents, the lot of you. New to London? I think that a man called Mr Brunner booked some rooms for you. Two others have already arrived. They're exploring the shops" He jerked his head towards the archway. "Go on, just come back with your two friends later. You have the largest rooms, 18 and 19 on the second floor." With that, he stepped back into the bar.

There was a brief moment in which nobody seemed to find anything to say, not even Leo.

"Well," Jason shrugged, finally breaking the silence. He slung an arm across Piper's shoulders. "What are we waiting for?"

Longest chapter yet! Whoo! I had written another paragraph, but then I realised that if I did that then this chapter would go on forever, so I cut it short. Next will still be in Thalia's POV. :D

Hey guys, who do you think should be the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher? And also, should the demigods stay in the house dorms, or a tower or something all to themselves? If they stay in the dorms, the Golden Trio will be able to snoop and follow them with the invisibility cloak and stuff. Or, if you would prefer them to be somewhere else, tell me where you think they should go!

Just to clear some things up, all spells on demigods, good or bad, shouldn't work as well on demigods unless another demigod casts it. How powerful the spell is (which depends on the castor) also affects its effects (say if Dumbledore was alive, his spells would still affect the demigods). All healing spells are harmful to demigods but healing potions are alright. While monsters are resistant to spells, you could still like, levitate a pile of bricks onto them, for example. Celestial bronze, imperial gold, stygian iron and other weapons made of mythological items (e.g. drakon bone) cannot be affected by spells.

Some tricky trivia about Annabeth's cap:
When did Annabeth get the magic in her Yankees cap back? (she definitely does at one point)
Only two people ever got to use Annabeth's cap (other than Annabeth herself), who are they?

And a Harry Potter question:
Who was Aragog's wife?

Yours in demigodishness and all that,
