AN: I am so sorry it has been so long since my last chapter. They hadn't been able to save my last computer so I lost everything. Then I had to save up for a new computer which took over a month and even after I got the computer I had to save up to get Microsoft Office so that I could start writing. I got that a month ago. I then had to retype all my previous chapters so that they were back in word and I had to remember what I had typed for the two new chapters that I lost. They aren't exactly the same, I actually can't remember half of what I previously had typed, but it will hopefully be good enough. The next chapter should be finished within the next week though I will try to finish it as soon as I can.
Chapter 10
The group of seven then went to Britain and made their way back to Slytherin's Keep where they settled back in. After being there for a week Cedric, Travis, Cassie, Connor, and Neville got their Hogwarts letters. Less than an hour after they got the letters they all headed to Diagon Alley to get their School supplies. Their first stop was Madam Malkin's Robes for all Occasion where they met Draco Malfoy. Draco had been surprised when Cassie introduced herself using her full name since he thought that he was heir to the black family.
After paying for their Robes they went to the Apothecary. Once done their the group went to Flourish & Blotts to get their books along with a few other books like Most Potent Potions, Guide to Dueling, and Runes Throughout the Ages. Their next stop was getting their trunks; they eventually decided to get the same ones that Cedric and Travis had. The trunks had four compartments with undetectable expansion charms, password locking charms, and magical signature wards. The first compartment was a room to keep their familiars; the second was for books, the third for clothes, and the last for other supplies. They finally went to a store in Knockturn Alley where they got Dragon Hide jackets that could be worn in the muggle world or under their robes to protect against minor to moderate spells.
After that they placed an order for Thestral Hair, Demiguise Hair, Chameleon Scales, and Phoenix Tears at another store in Knockturn Alley. The week after that they celebrated Cassie and Neville's birthdays. Cassie now looked like she was eight while Luna and Neville also looked like they were eight. It had been a surprise when they learned that Neville was a fourth generation demigod like Luna, Cedric, Connor, and Travis. August 15th they celebrated Luna, Cedric, and Nico's birthdays which were all in the month of August. On August 31st Nico and Luna went back to camp while the other five rented rooms in the Leaky Cauldron from where they would then head to Kings Cross Station.
The next morning the five Hogwarts Students all got up at five in the morning, had breakfast and headed to the Station as they wanted to get their before the rush of students came in. At ten in the morning they were joined by the Weasley twins who wanted to escape their younger brother. Apparently Ronald Weasley was complaining that he couldn't find Crystal Potter and that he needed to find his future wife before anyone else does. Ron and their mother were determined to have Ron marry the Potter heiress so that they and Ginny Weasley could become rich, and them going on about it is making Arthur Weasley consider getting a divorce. The only thing stopping him was that he couldn't afford a lawyer, when the five demigods heard that they told the twins to let their dad know that he could use their lawyer.
Pulling the papers out of her trunk Cassie made the twins pull their dad aside and give them to him, and she said that she would pay for it and if he really wanted to pay them back they could set up a payment plan later on. Hearing that the twins gave her a grateful look and ran off to find their dad before the train left, when they came back they said that their dad would contact the lawyer later on that day. When the train started moving the group of five demigods and two magical's talked about all of the products that the demigods made and their discovery of the Cruciatus Cure and Lycanthropy Cure in a book in one of their Library's.
Once they were nearly there they all got their Robes on over their non-magical clothes. It was before they did that when Cassie mentioned that in America, magical's don't wear Robes they just wore what the non-magical's did. Once they got out of the train the three first years headed over to the boats, but not before they noticed the Thestral's that were attached to the carriages. All the demigods could see Thestral's since they had all seen at least one person die in front of them. Cassie, Connor, and Neville all got in the same boat and they were joined by Draco Malfoy.
They were lead up to the castle by the half-giant called Hagrid, "Firs' years Professor."
"Thank you Hagrid," the stern older woman said before leading them into the hall. "Now, this is where you all will spend most of the next seven years. There are four houses Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, and Slytherin." She said looking proud when she mentioned Gryffindor, "Your houses are your family as they are who you will spend most of your time with…" Cassie didn't bother listening to the rest as it seemed like they were trying to separate the houses from the other houses and therefore in her eyes it was stupid. It did look like she, Travis, Neville, and Luna would have to enact section 23 of the Hogwarts Charter sooner than they anticipated. Section 23 was a clause created by the founders and the Queen of Britain of the time where if the school Headmaster was not running the school correctly than the heirs of the founders could take over and change thing the way they needed. They had originally planned to enact it after they graduated, but if things were even worse than they thought they would need to act over the summer and before the war with the titans started.
Finally they were lead to the Great Hall where they saw hat Cassie recognized as the Sorting Hat sitting on a stool. "When I call your name walk up to the stool and place the hat on your head." McGonagall said after the Sorting Hat sang its song. "Abbot, Hannah!"
"Hufflepuff!" the Hat cried.
"Black, Cassiopeia!"
"Slytherin!" the Hat said after five minutes, and Cassie walked over to the Slytherin table and sat next to Travis.
"Bones, Susan"
"Hufflepuff!" the Hat yelled.
A few more names were called before, "Longbottom, Neville!"
"Gryffindor!"
"Malfoy, Draco!"
"Slytherin!"
"Potter, Crystal!" McGonagall called making Cassie and Travis share a knowing look. After a minute people were whispering, "Once again Potter, Crystal!" Finally McGonagall went on after sharing a look with the Headmaster. After a while she came to, "Stoll, Connor!"
"Slytherin!"
"Zabini, Blasie!"
"Slytherin!"
Once all they students were sorted and there was no Crystal Potter students started whispering even more. They eventually started eating while the teachers were discussing about what might have happened. After dinner they got a few announcements before the prefects lead the students off to their common rooms. After getting to the common room and getting the mandatory introduction speech they went to their rooms. Cassie was told to share her room with Daphne Greengrass who was in her year.
The next day Cassie got up at five like she and the other demigods were trained to do, before getting dressed in a pair of Yoga Pants and a light long sleeve shirt and getting her Robes in a bundle to take with her. After doing that she met up with Travis, Connor, Neville, and Cedric and they all went out to run around the black lake four times before they headed off to the Room of Requirement where they practiced with their weapons and their martial arts. They then asked the Room to make showers for them where they cleaned off, had Dobby clean their clothes, and then put on new ones that Dobby gave them, and finally put on their Robes over their clothes.
By the time this was done it was finally eight in the morning and the great hall was just opening up for breakfast. They were the first students there as most were still asleep, it was disgusting to the demigods that wizards were so lazy. The next ones to enter the great hall at around eight thirty were the twin who were still half asleep. At around nine more and more students started trickling into the Great Hall, though by then the five demigods were done eating and were looking over their class schedules. That day they had Double Defense Against the Dark Arts with the Gryffindor's followed by Charms with the Ravenclaw's. After Charms they had Lunch followed by Transfiguration with Gryffindor's and finally Double Potions with Gryffindor's.
This would be the perfect chance for Cassie to see first-hand what needed to be done once they went to the Queen and enacted Sector 23. Of course it would be hard to get a meeting with the Queen but they would most likely rush the meeting when they told them the meeting would be about Sector 7. Now Sector 7 refers to the magical world in general, and the Queen and her heir along with some of her guard all knew about the magical world. The reason the Queen needed to know about the magical world was because she was supposed to be the dictator of the magical world and the Ministry for Magic, though unfortunately the ministry refused to give the details to the Queen, and even called themselves the Ministry of Magic instead.
Cassie, Neville, and Connor headed to DADA before the other students even finished their breakfast. Sitting down at the same table in the front of the room they started reading different books they got from Slytherin's Keep after setting their course books at the corner of their desks. They class passed slowly due to them not only knowing the material but also because of their teacher's fake stutter being annoying. The worst thing was that the teacher showed the same signs that Quintus showed meaning he was possessed, it was disgusting that the Headmaster would let someone like that in the castle since the wards would have alerted him to the fact that there was a possessed person on the premises the second he walked through the wards.
Once DADA was done they headed to charms, they unlike most others just put their books and things needed for the day into a bag and carried them around. They also all had a Know-It-All Map with them at all times so that they didn't get lost. So the five demigods were better equipped than other students as they were not above using muggle items or making maps to get around, they even used pens and pencils along with using notebooks to take notes. They didn't really care about the looks they got when using the items since they would be changing the Wizarding world in Britain soon enough.
