Annabeth POV

It was two days before Annabeth and Percy were due to go to school, and they were enjoying their time at camp half-blood, being normal teenagers. Well, as normal as you could be when you just so happened to be half-god. They had recently got back from New York, where they were visiting Percy's parents. Sally had been crying out of relief, before she saw his SPQR tattoo, and proceeded to scold him about how he was too young to have a tattoo. Seeing Percy's relationship with his mom made Annabeth smile, but also ache. She remembered her conversation in Greece under the Parthenon with Percy and Piper. It was true, what she had said. It was stupid that she resented her father and step-family for so long. As she walked to the camp-fire, hand in hand with Percy, she resolved to Iris message them first chance she got. They didn't even know if she was alive.

When she got to the camp fire she let go of Percy's hand, gave him a smile, then walked over to her siblings. Percy went and sat with Jason, as they were both alone. Tyson had gone back to the forges after the giant war, but returned often, mainly for Percy and Ella. But as she sat down, she had a lingering sense of unease. Her previous conversation with Chiron echoed around her head. Wizards… another world co-existing…a new quest. The campers fell silent as Chiron stepped into the firelight, raising his hand for quiet.

"There is a new quest. It has been issued by the Olympians themselves, so pay close attention. Annabeth" He stepped back, and she continued.

"We have found evidence of another world co-existing with our own. The quest is to infiltrate one of their schools, to see if they know about our existence, and to assess potential threats. We will not disclose any more information to anyone but the demigods who will go on this quest. Those campers have already been chosen" Annabeth sat back down.

Chiron took over. "Annabeth chase and Reyna Ramirez-Arellano will lead this quest. 9 demigods, already experienced and well acquainted shall accompany them."

At this, a low murmuring arose. There had never been that many on a quest before. Chiron cleared his throat, then continued. "Along them will be: Percy Jackson, Thalia Grace, Jason Grace, Piper Mclean, Hazel Levesque, Frank Zhang, Leo Valdez, Nico di Angelo and Will Solace. But. This time, a titan shall also be among them. Calypso, daughter of Atlas."

Annabeth looked over to where the children of Hephaestus sat, and saw Leo. Despite the fact that they were being pushed into another quest, he was smiling when he heard that he would not have to leave Calypso. It made Annabeth grin a little.

Chiron interrupted the bubble of chatter that had begun again. "could the said demi-gods follow me."

Calypso and Annabeth looked at each other, then down in a mixture of exasperation, love and distain at their boyfriends, who were rolling around on the floor, laughing so hard that unshed tears glistened in their eyes and they had to clutch at their sides.

Annabeth raised an eyebrow. "Seriously, seaweed brain?"

"But, Annabeth, Hogwarts." Percy struggled to breathe.

"And a headmaster named Dumbledore." Leo leant against Calypso's legs, wheezing.

The 12 demigods and titan stood in the big house so Chiron could fully explain.

"If I could please continue" he said, obviously turning his gaze to Percy and Leo. "I have it sorted with the headmaster that you are American exchange students visiting to experience their culture. To help you at Hogwarts, the goddess Hecate has given you some gifts. Firstly: your wands. Secondly: knowledge. After I give you your wand, wave it, and it will give you the ability, spells, movements, potions, creatures etc. and knowledge you would have learnt had you been at a magical school since you were twelve. it will also change your physical appearance to that of yourself at 17, for the quests purposes. We have also forged documents showing your owls, which are like wizarding GCSE's, so you can take the NEWT's, like magical A-Levels, that I have submitted for you. Here" he gave out the wands.

Annabeth's was long, about 38mm, she guessed. It looked as though it was made of oak. She waved it like instructed, and almost passed out. Floods of knowledge came to her, until her brain felt like it was going to explode. Despite this, she had never felt so powerful. The others mirrored her actions, and seemed to have similar reactions as they stumbled backwards, blinking at 100 miles per hour.

Chiron broke the silence. "Take a trunk each" he gestured behind, where 12 were stacked. "And fill a small part of it with a few necessities. You will buy school supplies later, so leave room. We meet at Half-blood hill in one hour for your departure."
