Epilogue

Nico

"For the last time, I'm fine Will!" Will glanced at me with a look that asked, 'really?' He continued feeding me nectar and ambrosia before checking up on the others.

We were currently in the Great Hall with Dumbledore trying (but miserably failing) to defuse the wizard's fears. I chuckled as the old man was met with large protests and questioning from all houses and schools.

I hobbled over to Cho and sat next to her. "You look worse for wear."

She smiled weakly, "I suppose so."
"About your brother-"
"Forget about it. I don't have a brother. Whatever happened to that man is his choice, and I have nothing to do with him-"
"Stop." Cho looked at me. "Don't force yourself to think like that. You can cry for him. Sure, he was an enemy, but he was still family. Even if you don't consider him as such now."

"But I-" Suddenly tears fell down Cho's cheeks as her shoulders hunched over and she shook violently. She cried out, "I wish he had stayed dead, so I wouldn't have to go through this again."

I looked at her and just let her cry it out.

Harry

"What happened?" "Where's Cedric" "What was that giant man?" "There were so many flames."
"Harry, was that Voldemort?" "What were the Americans doing?"

"Hey! Stop asking him questions!" Jason said as Percy started to shoo away the numerous students.

I said, "Thanks." The guys smiled and sat beside me. "How do you guys deal with this?"

Percy tilted his head. "I mean, the death? Cedric died because of me, because of us. He wanted to protect us, but he…"

"Hey." Percy put his hand on my shoulder. "It's not your fault."

"I agree with Seaweed Brain here." Annabeth came over and kneeled in front of me. "Life happens. The Fates don't always smile upon us. We just keep going and honor those who sacrificed for us. If we surrender here, their death would just be worthless. We honor them by always fighting. Voldemort is still out there."

Ron whispered, "Yeah, Harry. We are all feeling down after Cedric..you know. But he died for a cause. A cause that we need to keep fighting for."

I glanced behind me and found Ron, Hermione, Draco, Luna, and Neville all smiling and offering comfort. "You guys...thanks."

"Excuse me, may I have your attention please." I turned my head towards Dumbledore. "We have experienced something incredibly sorrowful here. We lost friends, family, ourselves. Like, Mr. Diggory. We will never forget him and his incredible bravery. But, Voldemort-" (Students flinched and started visibly sweating) "-Voldemort, the Dark Lord, is back."

Murmurs grew as eyes began to turn towards me. Dumbledore continued, "I need to thank our students of Pythias Academy for their incredible bravery in defending all of us from Voldemort's allies." There was some applause.
"We are cutting the Triwizard Tournament short for obvious reasons, and we must encourage our friends from other lands to stay for the final feast. Even though such a tragedy occurred, we must not show fear in the face of danger. We will finish this year strong. Because this wizarding community is one and we have each other."

"I guess this is goodbye." I said. We were at King's Cross station. The rest of the year ended well. There were no Greek attacks other than the usual monsters due to the absurd amount of demigods at Hogwarts.

"No, more like a 'see you later.' Who knows, maybe you'll need us again." smiled Annabeth.

The rest of the demigods were busy unloading luggage and teasing Draco, oh sorry, Dragon for his total 180 change in personality as those in Hogwarts would say. We weren't friends, but we surely weren't enemies. And who knew the son of Athena had a wicked sense of humor.

The sound of wheels notified the demigods of Chiron. The man wasn't in his centaur form, but he still commanded a great deal of respect from the demigods. They smiled at him and he said, "Congratulations. It seems your quest went well."

Percy said, "Ah-hah! I knew it. This was a quest!"

Jason shook his head and laughed.

"Regardless, it seems we should return to camp. It's going to be a long flight home."

Nico and Hazel visibly paled. Percy complained like a five-year old, "Zeus is going to kill us!"

Thunder sounded and Percy gulped. Chiron laughed, "Don't worry. I got permission. And besides, I doubt Mr. Di Angelo would appreciate a shadow travel of this size again."

Nico opened his mouth, but Will interrupted, "Yes. As his personal doctor, I suggest flying as a safer option." He ruffled Nico's hair and slung an arm around the son of Hades.

Hermione and Ron came out from the train. Hermione said, "It was nice to meet you guys. Thank you for your help this past year, and it was nice to meet other girls like me."

Annabeth laughed at that. Ron nodded, "Yes. Thank you for being Hermione's library partner. You should come again next year, so she won't drag me off to read some dusty old book."

Hermione turned red and screamed, "Ron!"
Piper whispered to Jason, "By Aphrodite, how are they not dating yet?"

Jason merely shrugged.

Harry smiled at the demigods, "See you guys later."

They all laughed and said their goodbyes. They left the station without turning back. Ron asked, "Reckon, we will see them again, Harry?"
"Hopefully when Voldemort has been defeated."

Hermione smiled, "I like that idea." We all took our luggage and exited the station.

Fourth year was interesting to say the last with these demigods, but it surely didn't disappoint. Now, I will focus on defeating Voldemort with all I've got. For Cedric.

I've told you guys I would finish! It's been years later, but I can officially say this story is over. It has truly been a pleasure. This is my first published fanfiction, and I'm going to be blunt, my writing sucked at the beginning. I've growned, although it may seem small, in my writing. Hopefully, I'll continue to grow.

I'm going to return to my other stories now since I have ideas churning in my head now. I hope you enjoyed this journey as I have. Thanks to everyone who has supported this story from the beginning, and hello to those who've stopped by now that's it over. This story was fun, stressful, exhuasting, but overall wholesome. Thank you for reading. Eat. Sleep. Read. Review. Repeat! ; )

From this corner of the world,

Fin

PS. Check my profile. I have another story that is a PJO x HP crossover too, but it's a totally different tone from this cliche mess haha. It's my attempt to be a lot more serious in the writing and actually plan and outline and truly create character growth. Plus, I would say it's written a looot better. It centers around Will Solace, and what would happen if he was a wizard. (Of course, solangelo).
