The Divination Classroom, Hogwarts

Percy

Everybody was speechless. Then Percy started laughing. Annabeth, Thalia, Piper, Nico and Leo followed. Jason, Will and Calypso smiled, but refrained from making loud, rude noises. "The Grim Percy, Mrs. O'Leary.. The Grim!" Thalia was laughing too much to form sentences.

"It's the Grim!" Annabeth shrieked, mimicking Trelawny's voice. Professor Trelawney frowned at them. As she opened her mouth to say something, she froze. A cold, hoarse hissing voice emitted from her throat.

You... shall face... the... horrors... of darkness...

You... shall... venture... into... the... realm... of... darkness...

You... shall... bring... the light... and the day...into darkness

If... you... hope... to... ever... survive... the eternal...darkness

After the last words, she opened her mouth. The only words that came out of it was

"Detention, Jackson and Chase. For insolence and sheer disrespect!"

The Potions Classroom, Hogwarts

Percy

Percy entered the cold, hard dungeons. His sneakers made a squeaky sound each time they stepped on the moist cobblestone floor. Professor Snape, great grandson of Dionysus was like his divine forefather. However, unlike Dionysus, Snape didn't have a reason to be so grumpy. The Gryffindors and Slytherins alike pushed open the heavy metal doors to the classroom. "Sit down and shut your mouth, Potter!" Snape spat, as Harry opened his mouth. "Open your textbooks to page 658, The Alihotsy Draught.

"But sir-" Harry started.

"QUIET! Ten points from Gryffindor, now shut up!" Snape wheeled on Harry. Harry determinedly kept his eyes on Snape. Percy almost felt sorry for him as Draco Malfoy laughed. The entire class began to make the complicated and hard potion. Percy looked at his textbook. 'Ad for rop e-Ailotsy'! ot he tc aldor n' it read. Percy raised his hand. "Yes, Jackson?" Snape asked, quite politely.

"Uh, sir, it's just that being dy-" Percy said.

"Very well," Snape replied. With a twist of his wand, the words on Percy, Annabeth, Jason, Piper, Leo, Calypso, Thalia, Nico, and Will's books twist themselves around, forming into Greek letters. Now Percy could understand. He successfully retrieved some Alihosty from the cupboard and began to work.

Half an hour later, Percy finished his potion. It was slightly green, though it's supposed to be blue. Professor Snape was watching the other students work, arriving at Jason. "Non Malus," Snape said to Jason. Jason blinked, surprised.

"Tibi gratias ago tibi, domine," Jason said back. Professor Snape nodded, almost smiling. He walked over to Percy, looking over his cauldron.

"πολύ καλά, ακόμα κι αν είναι λίγο πράσινο," Snape complimented.

"ευχαριστώ," Percy replied. Snape nodded. Then went on to check Annabeth's.

Harry

Harry had barely arrived on time, and was going to tell him why, but Snape kept cutting him off. He was irritated, and when he set to work, he added to much sulfur into it and it blew up. He went to clean himself up, and when he returned, he heard Snape talking to Percy:

"πολύ καλά, ακόμα κι αν είναι λίγο πράσινο," Snape complimented.

"ευχαριστώ," Percy replied.

In parseltongue, it was: "pop mission for e candy there done t ma hello" Harry didn't understand, but he thought it must've been a secret Death Eater code. Perhaps Voldemort created it based off of Parseltongue. I better watch Percy from now on,Harry thought. Should I tell Dumbledore? He was painfully reminded of the way Dumbledore avoided him at his hearing. I'd better write to Sirius. He hurried off for his last subject, Astronomy.

Astronomy Tower, Hogwarts

Harry

Fortunately, Harry had plenty of time to reach the tower. When he arrived, Ron motioned for him over and Harry obliged. Ron whispered into Harry's ear "That Jackson bloke hasn't arrived yet, mate. What do you think? Do you-" Ron droned on. However Harry wasn't listening anymore. He must be at the castle, looking for something. He must be! Or he's setting some sort of trap! His thoughts were frantic.

Alright, alright, settle down class," Professor Sinistra called, as Percy burst up the stairs, panting and sweating.

"I'm sorry professor..." Percy waited awhile for his heart to calm down. "It's just with my dysle-"

"Alright, get to your position, Jackson," Sinistra said. "Trust Chiron to come up with these ridiculous ideas!" she muttered quietly. "Now, as I was about to say, today, we are going to observe the position Venus has to Mars."

"It means they're going to have a baby, am I right?" Annabeth whispered into Percy's ear. "Remember the temple of fear in Sparta?"

"How could I forget?" Percy asked. He had been worried sick about Annabeth as soon as she left. They both smiled at the memory.

"Piper saved me," Annabeth claimed.

"She sure did, at least from what I heard is true," Percy joked with Annabeth. "Didn't she like, save you twenty times while you just stood there?"

Annabeth's expression turned sour. "Yeah, well what about the time you and Jason were at the bottom of the ocean?" Annabeth teased.

"Yeah, Jason totally saved my podex," Percy recalled at the memory. It was back so long ago (by which he means, like two years and a half?). Life was simpler back then.

"Are you two paying attention?" Professor Sinistra asked. Percy jerked up.

"Er... yes... no... maybe so?" He answered. Professor Sinistra sighed.

"Well, class dismissed. Your homework this week is to write ten inches of essay about Venus and Mars's relation. Percy and Annabeth, you must write fifteen inches." She instructed. Percy couldn't believe himself. FIFTEEN INCHES? He looked over to his side.

"Wise Girl...?" He asked.
