Chapter 3: Leo
Last Time
"Wow, you're finally here Peter Johnson and Anniebelle Chance, Chiron here has an important announcement to make. I'll be on my way now," and just like that our Camp Director walked out the door. Percy raised his eyebrow at Chiron, but his face was impassive.
"Gather 'round children, I have a very important quest for you"
"Gee Chiron what's the quest," I muttered. Annabeth glared at me then responded
"Go on Chiron." He nodded and continued his speech
"My good friend Albus Dumbeldore h-," after he said this I immediately collapsed and was overwhelmed by hysterical fit of laughter. I was left gasping for breath and I saw everyone else snicker, but I was the only one on the ground.
"Albus Dumblydooooooor" I choked out and then remaining on the floor, thrashing around laughing uncontrollably. It must've been atleast five minutes of me flailing around the floor because everyone else was staring at me edgily. Percy was the one who stopped me. He coughed loudly and said
"Leo, when you're ready to actually listen and stop flailing around and actually listen to Chiron, please stand up." I knew that when Percy was being serious and not joking around too much, this was serious, so I stopped laughing and stood up
"Sorry," I apologized
"As I was saying before Mr. Valdez interrupted me, my good friend Albus Dumbledore contacted me and asked for some of the best demigods available to come to his school and protect one student, Harry Potter."
"I understand Chiron, but why does this Dumbledore want seven of the best demigods to protect one student?" Said Annabeth.
"Mr. Potter is a student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry." There was no containing anyone's laughter this time, Annabeth, Percy, Frank, Jason and I dropped immediately to the floor and was repossessed by violent fits of laughter. Hazel and Piper were staring at us with a blank expression on their faces.
"Pig's skin with warts!" Percy choked out. Annabeth's fist was on the ground in laughter
"DEFORMED PIG'S SKIN!" Jason and Frank echoed.
"You expect us to believe that wiazards and witches exist!" shouted Annabeth. However, I think that I laughed the hardest. I doubled up with laughter and laughed so hard that I uncontrollably burst into flame. Frank jumped back about a mile and everyone else stopped laughing instantly. Chiron stomped his hooves in anger and said
"Please stop interrupting me. Before you came to camp you believed the Greek Gods were myths right? Well, why can't wizards and witches? Hogwarts was founded around one thousand years ago by the first four children of Hecate. They had superior magical abilities and were called pure bloods. Half-Bloods (not demigods) are when a wizard has a known muggle or muggle born parents or granparents. Muggle borns are regular people who are blessed by Hecate to develop magical abilities. In short they come from non-magical families. Hogwarts is a school of magic. Albus Dumbledore is the headmaster and wants you seven to protect Harry Potter, the subject of a prophecy. Mr. Potter's parents were killed when he was one year old by a dark wizard by the name of Lord Voldemort. Harry somehow survived and the Dark Lord lost his powers, but didn't die. Now last year, Mr. Potter was entered in the Triwizard Tournament where he was transported to the graveyard and his blood was used to restore Voldemort's body. However, the whole wizarding world except the teachers at Hogwarts and his good friends Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley think that he is lying. Dumbledore believes that Voldemort will attempt to kill Harry Potter and he wants you seven to help guard and prevent Mr. Potter from harm."
"Chiron, where exactly is this school?" Hazel inquired.
"It is in Britain and in exactly one week you all will pack and fly over there…"
"But me and Hazel can't fly!" interrupted Percy.
"I have patched it all with Zeus Percy. You seven will go on a plane to Britain where you will go to the Headquarters of the order of the Phoenix where you will remain until the school year begins. There are many precautions you must take though. For one, Hecate will bless you with magic as you sleep which isn't bad. However, you must be transported back into you fifteen year old bodies."
At these words there was an outbreak of muttering and Piper broke it and everyone listened.
"Chiron, how long will this quest take? I don't want to spend that long in my fifteen year old body when I'm clearly not." She said in a huff
"About one year."
"Okay, but how will we get all our stuff?"
"First, you have the cover name for camp, Mr. Brunners Academy for the Magically Gifted. After you go to Grimmauld Place you will take a wand from Diagon Alley and get all your school supplies there. You have one week to spend researching and learning everything you can about the wizarding world from books." Almost everyone groaned but Annabeth jumped up and down at this prospect.
"Chiron, how many books will we have to read?" She asked.
"As many as necessary."
"Oh Wise Girl, you need to help me," Percy asked imploringly.
"I assume you accept the quest?" Chiron inquired
"Yes, it's a lot to take in but we need to help protect this Harry Potter," Jason replied
"Okay then, you all have one week and then you go off to the airport and you're off to London." Chiron ushered us out of the Big House and told us that when we woke up tomorrow we would have magical abilities and that books that we wanted would appear in our cabin once we needed them.
"See you all tomorrow!" I said to the rest of the group.
"Guys, come to my cabin at around midday," Percy said.
"We'll change cabins everyday, that will take up the entire week," Piper agreed.
"Well, see you all soon!" I muttered as I ran back towards the Hephaestus Cabin.
Next week was going to be really cool.
Boom! Chapter 3. I know it was really terrible but I was in a bit of a rush to get this done. Anyway please can we get some reviews to tell me how I can progress this story and I would love to get some feedback anyways.
