THE HALF BLOOD EXCHANGE PROGRAM
Mad Eye Moody and Three wizards
I don't own Percy Jackson nor do I own Harry Potter
Third Person POV
Annabeth, Percy, and Matthew met up with Nico, Thalia and Clarisse outside the defence against the dark arts classroom.
When Percy told everyone about Trelawney's prediction, they thought it was hilarious, even if Clarisse wouldn't admit to it. Soon they were joined by the rest of the demigods, the fourth years in Slytherin house, and the fourth years in Gryffindor house. Harry, Ron and Hermione came over to where Percy, Thalia, Nico, and Annabeth stood.
"So, Percy, how did you find you first Divination lesson?" Harry asked Percy.
"It was funny. Apparently I'm going to die in a body of water" Percy replied.
"How's that funny?" Hermione asked.
"I love the water; it's also kinder in the genes," Percy responded. "How about Harry?"
"I got told I would die for the hundredths time," he answered simply.
A loud clunking sound came from behind the door. It opened at a man stood there. Harry found the man odd and intimating; he had a metal leg, multiple scars across his face and a weird eye that looked everywhere at once. Percy thought that he looked like a monster, and while everyone else seemed to be scared of him, Percy edged his hand toward riptide.
"Now, son, I wouldn't do that," he whispered to Percy.
"Get inside, all of you," he barked, moving away from the door to allow everyone inside.
Everyone came inside and chose seats. Draco and co sat in the back corner, and Harry and the group sat up the front. The two groups seemed to want to get as far away from each other as possible. Actually, there seemed to be a lot of rivalry between the two houses. The demigods sat in groups of two or three around the room. They were scattered in between the houses.
"Now, my name is Moody. Today we will start easy. We will look at the arts from around the world; in particular, Greece. The magic of Greece isn't the same as ours. They aren't wizards as we know today, but they were blessed with the gift of magic." He stated scanning the room, his strange eye stopping at every demigod in the room; he held Percy's, Thalia's and Nico's eyes for longer than anyone else.
"Any guesses?" He opened up to the class; everyone cast each other weird looks of confusion.
"Three clues; Greek, Half Blood and gods"
The demigods passed nervous looks to each other; almost everyone else in the room looked even more confused than before. Hermione through looked like a switch had just been flicked. She started to viciously write on the piece of parchment before her. Moments later she looked up from her parchment and her hand shoot into the air.
"Demigods," she said proudly.
"Very good…" Moody answered.
"So the secrets out," I whispered in Annabeth's ear.
"Not quite," she answered.
"What are demigods?" he asked again.
Several people cautiously raised their hands; Percy noticed that most of them were Gryffindor. Mad-eye pointed to a short girl in the back row.
"Um… children of gods and muggles," she answered. "But there are no such things as demigods."
"That is where you are wrong," he stated. "Demigods are real as are the gods. Now are there any questions?"
"Yeah, how does this relate to us?" asked Draco in the back corner, his voice was dripping in venom.
"Knowing the magic of other cultures will help you to better understand your magic. Now for our next lesson I would like a roll of parchment on the Greek gods," he said. "Could I see Annabeth, Percy, Thalia, Nico, and Clarisse after class. You are dismissed."
As the other students cleared out Percy, Annabeth, Nico, Thalia, and Clarisse made their way up to the front of the room. Mad-eye had a twinkle in his eye. And in that moment Annabeth knew that Moody knew the secret.
"Tonight, Dumbledore will be announcing that the Triwizard tournament will be run this year. Dumbledore has asked that you participate as your own group. So, with that in mind, would you make up a presentation for the opening night?"
"Yeah, sounds like fun," Thalia stated.
"When will the opening night be?" Annabeth asked.
"A week from now," Moody answered.
"Okay, thank you" Percy replied.
"See you next lesson," Nico said.
"Don't forget the homework," Moody called.
The demigods left the classroom and chose to have lunch. Percy, Annabeth, Clarisse, Nico, and Thalia separated and sat at their house tables.
Draco, Pansy, Grabbe, and Goyle sat the Slytherin table. They saw Nico and Clarisse come over to take a seat. It was time to put the plan in action.
"Can we join you guys?" asked Nico, coming over to take a seat.
"Sure," Draco answered against his better judgement.
Clarisse joined them several seconds later. As the two visitors started to eat, they started to talk. Draco sat in silence for a little while just listening to the conversation; he would occasionally agree with something or chuckle at a joke that he either didn't get or didn't think was funny.
The bell rang for next period, and Draco stood up and left to go to Charms with the Hufflepuffs.
Across in the entrance hall the demigods met up to make plans for the afternoon. They decided that they should get some training in. Everyone got geared up and made their way across to the green slopes of Hogwarts. They decided to do a knock out competition. The first groups were Percy and Jake, Drew and Annabeth, Castor and Matthew, Nico and Travis, Katie and Clarisse, and Connor and Thalia.
Percy and Jake were first up to fight. The two went at it for several minutes, and as they fought, the more reckless Jake got. A few minutes later Percy announced Jake 'dead'. Annabeth over powered Drew in the first ten minutes, Castor won against Matthew. Matthew was not pleased. Nico was easily the better fighter, Clarisse used pure strength to overpower Katie and Thalia went all lighting on Connor, leaving him in a literal trail of smoke.
The second round was Castor and Nico, Annabeth and Thalia and Percy and Clarisse. Percy watched the first match in very critically. He tried to identify how both Castor and Nico fought. Nico was more skilled with the sword but Castor was more physically capable. But eventually Nico finished with his sword on Castors throat with the sword Castor had been using a good 5 feet away. The next fight was between Annabeth and Thalia. Both of them were amazing fighters. Annabeth would take stab and Thalia would react milliseconds before it happened. Both girls had cuts along the side of their arms. Eventually Annabeth over powered Thalia, Thalia got highly annoyed and almost fried Annabeth on the spot. Percy and Clarisse were up next. Percy was sure that if he didn't bear the curse of Achilles he would have been purple for a week. Even after Percy had lost riptide the fight continued. After another good 20 minutes Clarisse was announced 'dead'. She joined the other on hill.
The next fight that was drawn was Percy and Nico. Annabeth received the luck of the draw. Percy and Nico seemed to fight for hours; Nico would be so close and then Percy would answer. Eventually, Nico grew tired and announced himself 'dead'. Annabeth and Percy fought for a mere five minutes, before Annabeth over powered Percy. No one was surprised; Annabeth always had a plan, and she always fought with almost no emotion.
That night there was another feast. Percy tried pumpkin juice; he was surprised that it tasted really good. He drank almost enough to drown in.
"So… how was your first day?" Harry asked Percy and Annabeth.
"It was good," Percy answered. "Trelawney is an interesting character, and Mad-eye seems a little insane. What about you, Harry?"
"I agree with you on both parts," he replied. "Have you started the homework?"
"No, but it won't take long to do," Percy responded.
"Can I ask you a question?" Hermione asked Percy.
"Sure, what is it?" Percy replied.
"Are you are demigod?" she questioned.
"Blamey Hermione! No need to be so forward," Ron stated between mouthfuls.
Percy was surprised at this question; he couldn't believe that she had figured it out. Percy past a glance at Annabeth, she shrugged.
"They'll find out eventually."
"Yes, I am." Percy answered.
"Son of Poseidon, right?" Hermione said.
"Yes, how did you figure it out?" Percy asked.
"Well first, there was the nicknames 'Seaweed Brain' and 'Kelp Head', and this morning you were talking about not being able to drown, and after that there was the way Moody looked at you when he said half-blood or demigod, and this afternoon I saw you guys all fighting with swords. I was the library doing my DADA homework, and then it clicked," she finished, running out of breath.
"Annabeth, is she your half-sister or something?" Percy asked.
"Of course not," Annabeth snapped.
Hermione was about to ask Annabeth something, but Dumbledore interrupted her.
"I hope your first day was pleasant," Dumbledore stated. "Now, this year, the ministry has decided that the Triwizard Tournament will run. I apologise to those of you who already know what the Triwizard tournament is, but for those that don't, the Triwizard Tournament is a magical competition that brings three schools together to participate. One person form each school has a companion that will compete in three tasks. These tasks are highly dangerous. Now, in light of the danger these tasks present, the ministry has decided to place an age restriction on all participates. All those who wish to put their name forward must be 17. This year there will be another school joining us. The Tournament will commerce in a week. Enjoy."
Throughout the whole speech, excitement was building. Percy thought he could have split it in half with Riptide. When Dumbledore announced the age restriction the school went up into an outbreak of outrage. Eventually, they calmed down and the feast finished. Everyone went up to their common rooms to rest up for another busy day tomorrow.
