Chapter 2: The Wizarding World
After a long journey, Percy, Annabeth, and Grover arrived in London and began their search for Harry Potter. They wandered the streets for hours, asking anyone they could find if they knew the whereabouts of the famous wizard.
Finally, they stumbled upon a pub called the Leaky Cauldron. As they stepped inside, they were met with stares from a group of wizards and witches huddled in the corner.
"Can I help you?" a gruff voice said. Percy turned to see a short, bald man with a bushy beard and a twinkle in his eye.
"We're looking for Harry Potter," Percy said.
The man's eyes widened. "You're not from around here, are you?" he said. "Follow me."
The man led them through a secret entrance in the back of the pub and into a bustling alleyway filled with witches and wizards. Percy felt a sense of awe as he took in the sights and sounds of this new world.
Finally, they arrived at a tall, imposing building with a sign that read "Ministry of Magic." They entered and were immediately greeted by a young wizard with a clipboard.
"Can I help you?" he asked.
"We're looking for Harry Potter," Percy said.
The wizard's face lit up. "He's on the top floor," he said. "But be careful. There's been some strange activity up there lately."
