Hello! So I noticed that a lot people disagreed with the outcome of the last chapter. I understand that the demigods are way more powerful, trust me I know. But the whole point I was trying to come across is that the demigods didn't want to fight the golden trio. And it was Annabeth's point of view so she didn't know what was going on in the demigods heads. Just trying to explain a few things :) hopefully I don't sound bratty or anything.

Hermione's POV

Hermione tried to get up to her feet. But her stomach was aching a lot from Annabeth's knee. Harry was slouched over next to the fire place. As Hermione's breath was heaving, she looked at her surroundings. Ron was out cold on the ground, there was potion everywhere, and the Americans were also on the ground. The plan was steady (to an extent).

"Harry," Hermione groaned, "We should start moving them to the shrieking shack".

"How? Ron can't help us since he is knocked out as well".

"Simple", Hermione took out her wand, "Wingardium Leviosa".

She pointed it at Percy. And he started to float up in the air.

Harry was visibly confused, "It shouldn't work on people.. "

"It doesn't," Hermione said, "But it does work on clothes".

"Oh, yeah," said Harry. He took out his wand and casted the charm onto Annabeth. She floated as well.

"Also, in case anything went wrong," said Hermione, pulling a bottle from her pocket, "I made this".

Harry took the bottle. The label on the side read "Ɯιԃҽყҽ ρσƚισɳ".

"Hermione, this is brilliant!" Harry said.

"Yes, yes. Just use it on Ron" Hermione said, levitating Hazel and Frank.

She saw Harry rush over to Ron and put the bottle in his mouth.

A few moments later, Ron sat up and put his hand on the back of his head, "What happened...?"

Hermione grabbed a cup off the table, "Hazel used this cup when you weren't looking and banged you in the head with it".

Ron looked around him, "Oh. I'm guessing you two were able to knock the rest out".

Hermione and Harry looked at each other, "Barely".

Hermione explained what they were doing to get the Americans to the shack. After about ten minutes, they each held onto four floating bodies and left the common room. Luckily, the fat lady was sleeping so they didn't have to answer any questions. They were able to run away fast enough when Peeves started throwing books at them. They went outside the castle and quickly hid behind a few bushes.

"Okay, there's the Whomping Willow.. " Harry said.

"What do we do now?" Ron asked.

"I've read about it the tree ever since last year... There is a knot near the base of the tree. When you step on it, you can immobilise the tree. Now, who's up for it?" Hermione said.

Ron and Harry looked at each other and at the same time said, "He wants to".

Hermione rolled her eyes, "Fine! I'll do it- "

"Okay, I'll do it," Ron said as soon as she said that. She looked at him in question.

Then he said, "Better me than you".

"Ron, if you want I can- " Harry started.

"No. I didn't do much with helping you knock out the Americans. The least I can do is this".

Ron walked slowly and carefully towards the willow. The tree noticed he was there and started moving it's tree branches. Then Ron ran towards a group of knots closest to him. The tree swung at his legs. Ron jumped over it but tripped when he landed on the ground. He started crawling fast to the roots. He put his hands over his head and brought them down in a quick motion. He hit a group of knots at the roots and the tree stopped moving.

Yes, Ron!

Hermione silently cheered and grabbed some of the floating bodies and moved them to the tree. They moved around some branches and they were able to slip into the tunnel.

"How long do you think it will take for them to admit themselves?" Harry asked.

"Probably not long. Well, we are going to tie them to a chair so they won't be able to get out. We would obviously have the upper hand," Hermione stated.

Ron nodded, "I just want them to admit they are Death Eaters. Then we can report them fully to Dumbledore with evidence. And besides, it will give Harry an advantage when it comes to the Quadwizard Tournament".

"How?" Harry said.

"Percy will be out of the tournament when they realize he's a Death Eater. But there's still something stuck in my mind... "

"What is it Ron?" Hermione said.

"Why would You-know-who want to have a kid as a Death Eater? Let alone twelve".

Hermione shrugged, "I don't know... Maybe he wanted them to be friends with Harry so that he could get to him faster?"

"So I became friends with Death Eaters. Nice," Harry said, bitter.

"We all did Harry. You are not the only," Hermione said.

"Oh, look. We're here," was his response.

They were inside the Shrieking Shack. Hermione used her wand and was making twelve chairs.

Key word: was.

Calypso's POV

Calypso felt weird. She woke and noticed she was in a weird room and was floating in the air. As someone who was part Olympian, the floating thing seemed normal. She started to remember what happened. She remember that she drank a juice and then she was tired. Very tired. She fell asleep right there and then.

That's not normal.. They must have made a potion or something!

Calypso looked around slightly. No one noticed that she was awake yet. Calypso looked to her left to see that Reyna was starting to wake. Calypso stared at her until she noticed. Reyna nudged her head back. Calypso looked back to see that Thalia was starting to wake too. A few seconds later Thalia looked as though she just realized she wasn't on the ground. She started waving her arms in the air.

Calypso put her finger to her lips.

Please, Thalia, no.

Thalia took a few seconds to calm down. She looked at Reyna and Calypso then the trio. Thalia looked back at them and put her arms out. She cupped her hands in a forward motion. Calypso looked at Reyna.

She knew what she had to do.

At the same time, Reyna and Calypso pushed against Thalia's hands and flew into Harry and Ron.

"AAAAH!" both of them yelled as the two girls pinned them down.

Hermione noticed and quickly turned around to see that Reyna grabbed Harry's wand and put it against his throat. Hermione paused.

"Don't you dare do anything to them!" Hermione shouted.

"I don't think you are in the position to yell at me right now," Reyna said coldly as she put the wand harder against Harry's throat. He stayed silent.

Calypso grabbed Ron's wand out of his pocket and tapped herself and Reyna. They both stopped levitating. Calypso, still holding onto Ron, slowly walked over to Thalia and tapped her too.

"Wait -AH!" Thalia screamed as she fell on her butt, "Well OW".

Then Thalia looked at Hermione. She glared at her and swiftly walked towards her. Hermione didn't move. Thalia grabbed Hermione's arm, twisted it behind her back, and pushed it up.

"Ow!" Hermione winced.

"How do you think I felt?" Thalia rolled her eyes. She grabbed Hermione's wand from her jacket pocket.

"H-hey.. What's going on?" Frank asked in the back.

Calypso threw the wand at him. He caught it.

"Make yourself un-levitate," she said, "Tap the rest too, would ya?"

He did as instructed and let everyone to the ground. Reyna used Harry's wand and made rope. They each tied one of the golden trio members to a chair. Jason, Nico, and Piper started to wake too.

Jason looked around, "How did we end up here?"

"I don't know fully myself little bro, but we can ask the others when they wake," Thalia said.

Nico glared at Harry, Hermione, and Ron, "I knew there was a scent of death on you... I think I know why now.. "

Ron physically squirmed.

"How did you guys wake up?" Hermione asked suddenly, "Did I make the potion wrong?"

"Nope," Piper said.

"Then how?"

Piper smirked and shrugged, "Who knows?"

"Ugh... " Hazel said, rubbing her head as she got up.

Frank rushed over to her, "Are you okay?"

She nodded, "Yeah, I just think I landed on my head".

Nico walked over to Will (who was starting to open his eyes) and poked him in the middle of his forehead, "Wake up".

Will just smiled, "What a beautiful face to wake up to.. "

Nico blushed and moved away quickly, "Shut up".

Harry, Ron, and Hermione looked at each other in question.

"Yes. They are dating," Thalia said, "Got a problem with that?"

Hermione looked genuinely serious, "Of course not. We just thought they were just frie- "

"CAL, YOU'RE FINE!!," Leo screeched the second he saw Calypso.

Calypso gave a small smile, "Yes, I'm aware".

He hugged her tight enough so that she couldn't escape, "How long have you been up for?"

"Cough about cough four minutes cough", she huffed.

"Leo I think you are choking the girl," Percy said as he got up. He walked over to Annabeth and held her up until she woke too.

When she did she immediately noticed that the three wizards were tied to chairs.

"I really think you underestimated us," Annabeth said. Then she crouched down to Harry's eye level, "When I said we trusted you, you said that you guys did too... Why did that change?"

"Because we now know the truth now. You've been hiding it from everyone!" Hermione shouted.

"... Crap," said Leo.

"How did you find out?" Jason asked.

"You guys aren't exactly quiet," Ron said, "We heard when you were talking about You-know-who- "

"No, we really don't know who," Piper said.

"Voldemort! You were talking about worshiping Voldemort. And Nico's weird relationship with ghost! And-and the mark you each have!" Harry ranted.

Thalia looked puzzled, "Mark? You mean this?" She pulled up both of her sleeves. On her left was an Eagle with one line under it. Then on her right was an archery bow crossing the moon with three lines underneath.

"That's... That's not the Dark Mark.. " Ron said.

"Dark Mark?" Hazel tilted her head.

"The mark that Voldemort's followers uses to claim they are Death Eaters!" Harry said.

It was silent for about twenty seconds. Then every demigod in the room bursted out laughing. Some were on floor, some were cackling, and some, like Leo, were practically screaming in laughter.

Harry, Ron, and Hermione looked at each in confusion.

"You think we're - PFTTT HAHAHA," Leo screeched.

"Hate to break it to you but we're not -not, Ha... We're not Death Eaters," Reyna said, grinning.

"Y-you're lying!" Ron said, he pointed his finger at them, "You have been trying to get to know us so you can try to give Harry to Voldemort. Somehow, Nico is connected to ghost!"

"Yeah!" Hermione said, "You're father is someone frightening enough to scare away ghost.. And the Quidditch World Cup... That day was the day that Dark Mark appeared... After years! You must have something to do with that. What would you have to say about that?"

Nico looked unamused, "I dunno... You can ask my father pretty soon if you keep blaming us for stuff we obviously didn't do".

"Nico!" Will exclaimed and slapped his arm.

"What is that supposed to mean?" Harry asked.

Percy sighed, "You rather not know".

"That's exactly why I'm asking".

"Look. I rather not get you into everything".

"I'm already in a lot so might as well add some more".

Percy stared at him in the eyes, "Sometimes I wish that I never got into this. I don't want to drag a fourteen-year old into this.. "

"So you regret being a Death Eater?" Hermione said, "That doesn't clear you from your crimes- "

"Hermione!" Thalia exclaimed, "We are not Death Eaters!" She went to eye level with her, "You are smart enough to figure out that something isn't right.. But, we're something else. And we aren't trying to hurt you guys".

"What do you mean something else?" Harry said.

Go ahead and tell them.

Hecate sounded exasperated.

It went pretty well with the other Weasley's so... I think you can tell them. Of course, it will change the course of events that I planned. You know, since I thought you guys were able to keep a secret.

Planned? But she didn't see this coming?

Percy sighed again, "When Thalia said we're something else, she meant that we aren't wizards. We were given magic not born with it. Well -to an extent".

"Huh?" Ron said.

Percy looked as though he didn't want to say what they were but he eventually said, "We're demigods".

"Demigods...?" Ron looked at Hermione expectedly.

"They're fake," Hermione said, "A myth".

"We originally thought you guys were a myth too, you know, wizards and witches," said Frank.

"Until we started learning more about the world that is," Hazel said.

"Well- "

"Hermione..." Harry interrupted, "I thought wizards didn't exist. And neither did you. Can't there be a possibility that demigods are real too?"

"What are demigods anyway?" Ron said.

Hermione started, "They're- "

"Half-human," Piper said.

"Half-god," Annabeth said.

Ron's eyes widened, "Is the world ending?! Did the heavens start opening up?!"

Reyna looked at the boy as though he was the source of stupidity, "How do you even come up with that...?"

"Some of us are Greek demigods and some of us are Romans demigods," Jason said, "We are the children of the gods".

"I'm not saying that you have to believe us but we are telling the truth," Piper said, "Don't you think we would have killed you by now if we were Death Eaters?"

"So you see our point?" Annabeth said after the three wizards were silent.

Percy knew that vagueness wasn't going to get them anywhere, "If it makes you feel better... We'll explain about our past".

...

I can finally breathe again! I hope you enjoyed the rest of this chapter. Since I feel bad that it took me a bit to finish the chapter, I'll release the next one in 4 days. I know that sounds like a while but I was originally going to release it in another week. Hope you guys are safe and forever will be! Byeee! Next update 4/11/20
