Chapter Ten

Percy

When I had reached the arena, I took out my lethal ballpoint pen, Riptide. I then started warming up on the dummies. While I was in the middle of my warm up, a big black furry mass attacked me. It pinned me to the ground and started licking me.

"Gah! Wait—Bleck! Mrs. O'Leary! Heel! Heel!"

Mrs. O'Leary the big black Hellhound got off of me and sat on the ground, her huge tail wagging. I got up and flicked some of the dog slobber off of me. I then walked up to her and scratched her behind the ear. Her tongue was hanging out of the side of her mouth, her eyes closed and her leg started to shake. I laughed at her and got a shield from one of the dummies. This got her attention. Mrs. O'Leary started to wag her tail faster.

"You want it?" I asked her. She barked. I threw the shield like a frizbee and Mrs. O'Leary ran after it. I laughed at her again and went back to my warm up. As soon as Mrs. O'Leary came back with the shield, the conch shell sounded across the camp. Mrs. O'Leary looked up from her shield and I turned around. I looked at the clock that was on the wall of the weapons shed and frowned. It wasn't dinnertime yet. The conch sounded again and I took off in a sprint towards the big house. There was another monster attack.

I spotted Annabeth and ran up next to her.

"What happened?" I asked her.

"Monster attack. We have no idea what the monsters are though." Annabeth said.

Suddenly, the temperature seemed to drop to below freezing. Annabeth and I froze, holding up our weapons. Black apparitions appeared around us. I suddenly had the feeling that all hope was lost. That there was nothing good left in the world. Not to mention that it was freezing too.

I swiped my sword at the apparition but it did nothing. My sword just passed right through it. The apparition screeched at me, grabbed my neck and pinned me to the wall of the Big House. I struggled against it's hold as a mouth appeared on it's face. The apparition leaned in closer to me, as if to kiss me. I started to freak out but it's hold on my neck wouldn't waver.

"Percy!" a voice said. "Expecto Patronum!"

A silver hawk head butted the apparition. The apparition screeched, let go of me and flew away from the silver hawk. I collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath. I saw Liz run over to me and her wand was out. Theseus and Zoe soon joined her, their wands out also. Theseus said the same spell that Liz said and a silver owl shot out and joined the hawk. Zoe did the same and a silver alley cat bounded out, joining the two birds of prey.

I slowly got up and watched the silver animals ward off all of the black apparitions. The silver animals disappeared and Liz came to help me up.

"What were those things?" I asked.

"Dementors." A woman's voice said. We all turned around to see an older lady who was wearing a long robe like thing and a pointed witch's hat. Liz smiled at her.

"Professor McGonagall! It's nice to see you again." She said.

The Professor smiled at Liz, "As with you, Liz."

"If you don't mind us asking, Professor," Theseus said, "What are you doing here?"

"I'm here to bring you three back to Hogwarts." McGonagall said.

"Wait," I said, stepping forward, "You mean that they're going to go back to England now?"

McGonagall nodded, "That is correct. They are needed."

I shook my head, "I'm sorry ma'am, but they need to stay and train here. A war's coming up and we need every camper to be ready for it."

"A war is also brewing in our world, young demigod." McGonagall said, her calm demeanor turned intimidating. "We, too, need to have all of our wizards ready for a war I feel is very close. I need these three to help me with precautions for our school."

I was about to argue with her more when I felt a hand on my shoulder. I looked around and saw Chiron standing there. "She's right, Percy."

"What?"

"The people of the wizarding world need all of the people they can get with most of their wizards turning to the Dark Lord's side." He said.

McGonagall bowed her head slightly, "Chiron, it's good to see you again."

Chiron smiled at her, "As to you, old friend. I'm sorry to hear about what happened to Albus."

McGonagall bowed her head, "Yes. He one of our greatest hopes."

"I see." Chiron said. "I believe I have a deal for you Minerva." The Professor raised her eyebrows. "Since our war will not happen until Percy turns 16 and that's a year from now, I will send you demigod help when the time of your wars has come. In exchange, we would need help form you and your wizards."

McGonagall nodded. "I'll have to speak to the Order about this and we'll be in touch, Chiron. I presume, however, that we will take you up on that offer." She then turned to Liz, Theseus, and Zoe. "Now, it's time to go, children." Then they all disappeared with a loud BANG!

Annabeth and I looked at each other.

"Now that was weird." I said.

She rolled her eyes, "You can say that again."

Hope you liked it! Like I said, next chapter will be up sooner than later hopfully.
