A/N Hello there you ppl. How's life going for ya?
I'm in a two week holiday break, called May Break, why my school has that? No idea, but I'm not about to complain... Although I'm dying of boredom -_-... Legit, although I've found entertainments... which included working out and then eating a ton of candy so ya know, not getting fat but not improving either -_-
I know, stupid logic but, can I just say...
358 (just checked) followers and what, five reviews per chapter?
Come on guys! You can do better.
I'm not asking for paragraphs or essays, just a couple of words telling me whether you enjoyed the chapter or not, because let me be honest, It's kind of demotivating when you see that so few people reviewed and what does demonetization do? Think about it.
Reviews - Motivation - Quicker and better quality chapters.
Why? Bcs I know I'm doing for people who actually care...
Enjoy nonetheless XD...

Previously on 'Demigods At Hogwarts':
"Since when do you come up with plans?" Leo asked him with scrunched eyebrows.
"Since the world started to end," Percy replied seriously which made Leo crack up.
"Now?" Hermione asked them, regarding the communication idea.
"Of course now!" Harry said angrily. "What did you think, we're going to wait after dinner or something? Hermione, Sirius is being tortured right now!"
They were about to start going when Percy held up a hand, "you guys go ahead and connect with Sirius. But I'm not going anywhere without warning Annabeth. And Leo if you plan on going, I'd warn the others if I were you. So let's meet in Umbridge's office in five?"
"I don't know where that is," Leo said as the others nodded in agreement.
"Just follow me," Percy said as he started to walk away.
"On it," Leo said as he followed.
.
Percy and Leo travelled through the corridors of Hogwarts until finally at last the pair of troublesome demigods reached the Great Hall. They didn't wait to gawk at it like they would have was it a less prying moment. Instead they walked straight towards the bunch of demigods eating over at a table, relieving (not that way!) themselves of the stress and hunger that the battle had brought with it.
"Hey?" Annabeth said as she saw the preoccupied faces of the two demigods.
Jason caught on in no time. "What's going on?"
"Harry had a vision," Percy said. "About Sirius –his godfather– being tortured by Voldemort. We're going."
"We?" Annabeth asked as she stood up. "Percy you're not going anywhere." He was ready to protest but she didn't give him the chance. "You've been injured more gravely than any of us and you've suffered a great deal in the past twenty four hours. You're not going anywhere."
Percy rolled his eyes and grabbed her hands. "I'm fine," he reassured her. "Really, there is no need for you to worry."
She shook her head and yanked her hands away from his grip, his confusion was only starting. "You're not going, not if I can stop you."
"Annabeth, please," he said. "He's my friend, and Sirius– he's a good man, I can't–"
"Leo is going right?" Annabeth asked although she already knew the answer. "Others can accompany him, I'm sure Sirius will be getting out just fine. But Percy, you're not going."
"Annabeth–"
This time he was interrupted by Jason, he stood and clapped his back. "She's right, man," he said. "It's unwise for you to go, please sit this one out. I'll go myself."
Percy wasn't going to go down without a fight. "Please–"
"I saw what they did," Nico said, although it weren't fully true, they had left before they had started. "I'll be helping Annabeth keep you here if I have to. Even knock you out."
"You wouldn't–"
"Try me," the son of Hades challenged.
"This is fun and all," Leo said. "But we said that we'd be there in five, so... whoever's coming, lets go."
-.-
Harry dashed over to the fireplace, seized the pot of Floo powder and threw a pinch into the the grate, causing the emerald flames to burst into life there. He knelt down quickly, thrust his head into the dancing fire and cried, "Number Twelve, Grimmauld Place!"
Hie head began to spin as though he had just gotten off a iair-ground ride though his knees remained firmly implanted on the cold floor. He kept his eyes screwed up against the whirling ash and when the spinning stopped he opened them to find himself looking out at the long, cold kitchen if Grimmauld Place.
There was nobody there. He had expected this, yet was not prepared for the molten wave of dread and panic that seemed to burst through his stomach at the sight of the deserted room.
"Sirius?" he shouted. "Sirius, are you there?"
His voice echoed around the room, but there was no answer except a tiny scuffing sound to the right of the fire.
"Who's there?" he called, wondering wether it was just a mouse.
Kreacher the house-elf crept into view. He looked highly delighted about something, though he seemed to have recently sustained a nasty injury to both hands, which were heavily bandaged.
"It's thePotter boy's head in the fire," Kreacher informed the empty kitchen, stealing furtive, oddly triumphant glances at Harry. "What has he come for? Kreacher wonders?"
"Where's Sirius, Kreacher?" Harry demanded.
The house-elf gave a wheezy chuckle. "Master has found out, Harry Potter."
"Where's he gone? Where's he gone, Kreacher?"
Kreacher merely cackled.
"I'm warning you!" Harry said, fully aware that his scope for inflicting punishment upon Kreacher was almost non-existent in this position. "What about Lupin? Mad-Eye? Any of them, are any of them there?"
"Nobody here but Kreacher!" the elf said gleefully, and turning away from Harry he began to walk slowly towards the door at the end of the kitchen. "Kreacher thinks he will have a little chat with his mistress now, yes, he hasn't had a chance in a long time, Kreacher's master has been keeping him away from her–"
"Where has Sirius gone?" Harry yelled after the elf. "Kreacher, has he gone to the Department of Mysteries?"
Kreacher stopped in his tracks. Harry could just make out the back of his bald head through the forest of chair legs before him.
"Master does not tell poor Kreacher where he is going," the elf said quietly.
"But you know!" Harry shouted. "Don't you? You know where he is!"
There was a moment of silence, then the elf let out his loudest cackle yet. "Master will not come back from the Department of Mysteries!" he said gleefully. "Kreacher and his mistress are alone again!
The elf scurried forwards and disappeared through the door to the hall.
"You foul elf!" he cursed after the little creature before pulling back from the fire and looking up at his friends in Umbridge's office.
"What happened?" Hermione asked.
Ron was preoccupied too. "Harry, what did you find out? Had You-Know-Who got Sirius or–"
"Yes," Harry said, as his scar gave a painful prickle.
"Wait a minute," Leo said, rising his hands as to say stop. "Who on earth is You-Know-Who? Cuz I sure as hell have no idea."
"Voldemort," Harry said. "And I'm sure Sirius is still alive, but I can't see how we're going to get there to help him."
"Well, we can fly," Jason opted.
"We?" Harry asked him. "You're not coming."
Jason crossed his arms. "And why not?"
"You don't even know him, I'm not letting you risk your life for someone you don't know!"
Jason put his hand on his shoulder, "it's okay man, we've done it before. And from what Percy had told me, this Sirius means a lot to you and he seems like a good man. And I know it's not my problem, but if 'Voldemort' is there, I have a bone to pick."
Harry was still unsure but then Hermione spoke up. "They just want to help Harry."
"But how are we going to get there?" Harry asked again.
"We could fly," Jason repeated. "Its fast and effective."
"Yeah but how?" Ron asked. "Like yeah, sure. You can fly of your own accord because of your heritage. And he's got a metal dragon–"
"Festus is not coming!" Leo deadpanned. "I have lost count of the times I've had to fix my ol' friend."
"I know," Harry said. "The Thestrals!"
"The what?" Frank asked.
"They're horses," Hermione explained.
"Which you can only see once you've seen death," Ron added.
The three male demigods ignored the statement. "So it's settled?" Jason asked. "You three can fly on those horse, I can hitch a ride of my own and Leo could hitch a ride on Frank."
.
A/N Forgive me for how short this is, really do. I promise for a much longer chapter for the one to come, Swear on the River Styx. But remember I'm not outlining the details or how long the next one will be so don't gold it against me.
Gotta love the loop holes XD
So yeah...
