"Thanks" said Harry uncertainly. " If you don't mind me asking who are you and why are you here " Harry asked. A dark look spread over the young teens face. " I'm afraid it's not for a cup of tea and a light hearted chat." Harry looked at him puzzled. " I've heard you have faced dark forces in your time" said the teen. In spite of himself Harry grinned and said, " You could probably say that." The teen smiled and said, " Oh by the way my name is Percy- Percy Jackson" he said. Nice to meet you Percy, said Harry as they shook hands. So what can I do for you? Asked Harry. I've been having visions of huge snakes killing humans and destroying towns, said Percy. Harry's eyebrows shot up at that. Really? he said, I've been having the same vision. Ive been researching and have figured out there are creatures called Garsli,said Percy, and that they are controlled by a master. Harry's brow furrowed as he thought. Sohythe reason I came was to see if you would join forces with me, said Percy. Harry thought and then agreed that he could use all the help he could get. Agreed, said Harry, and Percy's face split into a grin. Where are you staying?asked Harry. In a little town south of here, Percy said. I was hunting down those snakes after my friend, Grover was captured, said Percy. I was tracking them in a large forest but lost their trail so I came down here to question some locals and found you, said Percy. Harry suddenly yawned he hadn't notice how late it he said to Percy, meet at me at the town square tomorrow at dawn to discuss a plan of how we are going to deal with this, said Harry. Well good night. The next morning Harry got up, dressed, and walked briskly to the town square where Percy was already waiting. Good morning, said Harry, and Percy grinned back. There is a coffee shop not to far from here we can walk there and talk over our drinks, said Harry. Sounds good to me, said Percy, and they set off. As they were walking Harry found himself staring at his new friend. There was something about him Harry could not place there was something of a aura of power around him mixed with a grim determination. When they had ordered and were sipping cups of coffee Harry asked him what he had in mind. I was tracking the monsters about ten or so kilometers away from here, said Percy, I figure they were heading to this town, he said indicating to map he brought with him. What do you think their after, asked Harry. Percy shrugged remember they serve only one master he must be aiming for wealth and power though i cant be sure yet, Percy said. After they had left Percy said, Im going to do some more research ill be back in about two hours.
