The Gryffindor Common Room, Hogwarts

Harry

Harry skulked around the corners. He wasn't sure if he was to go to bed or not. Harry plopped down on a nearby couch. His hands closed around a tiny vial in his pocket. The Polyjuice Potion. Harry thought. Now that he had it, he much rather never had Easter holidays. That way, Harry didn't have to make the uncomfortable decision on what to do with the potion. He wanted to throw it out, but at the same time, he didn't. Harry sighed. The Gryffindor Common Room fireplace blazed with fire. Momentarily, Harry had thought Sirius was about to contact him, but that moment of elation quickly faded away. Sirius was gone. Harry knew it firsthand. So why did it hurt so much?

Harry sighed. He looked at the evening Daily Prophet, reading by the firelight. His eyes quickly scanned the page. All garbage, Harry thought and rolled the paper up before tossing it in the fire. Harry probably should go to bed by now, it was past midnight by several hours. He tiptoed up the stairs, trying not to disturb the others. "What are we-" "Who is-" "You are such a-" Voices rang in the background. Harry's pulse quickened. He hurried up the stairs, still tiptoeing but for different reasons altogether. He paused at the junction where their dorms split apart. Am I really going to do this? Am I an eavesdropper? Harry pushed those thoughts away. He lunged up their stairs. He peeked under the door. Luckily, Piper's mirror was in the perfect position to give Harry a glaring view of the room if he peaked underneath in the corner. Since the mirror was tilted, he could only see their heads. From what Harry could tell, Percy, Leo, Jason, and Annabeth were discussing something, Nico and Thalia were arguing, and the rest either asleep or not paying attention.

"Aren't we supposed to get the de-me titan?" Percy complained, flopping onto a bunk.

"Yes, but are we just going to abandon the school like that? Dealing with Eerie-bis?" Annabeth replied, slightly punching Percy in the shoulder as she sat down next to him.

"I know, I was just saying we don't even know who the de-me-" He paused. Harry realized he must've yelped out loud. He quickly hurried down the stairway, trying to return to his dormitory. Harry wasn't sure why, but those people freaked him out.

The Great Hall, Hogwarts

Jason

Jason had gone to breakfast early. He liked to wake up early and see the morning sun (and Apollo) rise from the east, lighting up the sky as they went. He headed down the confusing moving staircases to the Great Hall. As he entered the room, he saw an old, unused classroom's door open, and flashing red light before he saw nothing at all, and felt nothing at all. Instantly, he entered a dream. Oh no. Why now? He recalled thinking before he blacked out.
