I've always wanted to write a PJO/HP story, so I just decided to go for it. Of course, none of the charachters etc. belong to me, only the storyline. Hope you guys enjoy the story, here are some blue cookies (::)(::)(::)(::)(::)

'How dare you, brother. You know how much those children mean to me.' Hades growled at his brother, Zeus.

'We made a promise. You didn't keep it, so I had to get rid of your mistake. And since the first try didn't succeed, I had to try again.' Zeus growled back, master bolt in his hand.

'I had no idea we would ever make such a promise when they were born. And I put them in the Lotus Casino, so they could never become 16. What is wrong with that?'

'You could get them out at any moment.' Zeus said while he turned around and walked off to his palace, throwing his master bolt from one hand to the other.

'Oh, Zeus, brother, you will be sorry for what you've done. Just you wait.' Hades whispered. He snapped his fingers and was down in Las Vegas again, standing next to Bianca and Nico di Angelo. 'Well, kids, lets go for a ride.' Hades smiled mischievously.

Nico's POV

'Why do we have to go to this stupid school? Why can't we stay in the Lotus Casino?' Bianca asked. We were walking through a street in London with some lawyer in a black suit.

'The Lotus Casino burned down.' the lawyer answered. The whole trip this guy had only answered my sister's questions. There were a lot, though.

'How come this school is all the way in London?' Bianca wasn't happy at all that we left the Lotus Casino. She found a game she really liked, but I can't remember what it was exactly. I was to busy playing with my Mythomagic cards.

'It's in Scotland, not London.'

'Then why are we in London now?'

'To buy your school supplies. Now silent, please, where almost there.'

The lawyer led us into a bar called The Leaky Cauldron. It seemed like the other people walking through the street didn't even see it. They just looked from the book store on the left, to the record store on the right of the bar.

The bar was pretty crowded and smelled funny, some kind of mixture between alcohol and sweets. The people inside the bar looked funny too, they had weird cloaks on. Mostly black, which I like. The bartender looked at us with a grim on his face. He probably didn't get much new costumers. Especially not people like us.

I wanted to order a coke, but the lawyer walked up the stairs and Bianca dragged me with her. He walked along a corridor and stopped before room 11.

'Inside this room is the head master of the school you will be attending. His name is Albus Dumbledore, and he has agreed to let you stay at Hogwarts for as long as needed. Better not let him down.' Lawyer-man knocked on the door and a voice from inside said: 'Come in.' We walked inside to find an elderly, greying men with half-moon glasses sitting in a comfortable-looking chair by the fireplace reading a book. He was wearing a light purple cloak.

'Well, you must be Bianca and Nico di Angelo, new students at Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry.' the man looked at us with a twinkle in his eyes. 'Thank you for bringing them to me, Alecto,' he now said to lawyer-man. whose name seemed to be Alecto. 'Did everything work out with lady Hecate?'

'Yes, of course, sir. She was happy to help out.'

'How did you do it exactly?' the man asked with interest. I had no idea what they were talking about, but I did now lady Hecate was the name for the god of Magic. But they couldn't be talking about her, gods don't exist.

'Drinks.' Did he mean the drinks we got on our way to London? I looked at Bianca confused. She didn't seem to follow the conversation either. 'I should get back to the boss.'

'Say hi to him for me.' And with that, lawyer-man turned and closed the door. 'What do you think of the Leaky Cauldron?' Bianca and I looked at each other but didn't answer. 'Oh, right, I'm Albus Dumbledore, but you can and must call me Headmaster Dumbledore.'

'I'm Bianca and this is my brother Nico, but you knew that already.' Bianca said a bit awkwardly.

'What did you mean when you said Lady Hecate?' It came out of my mouth before I thought about it. 'If I may ask.'

'That's not important. Now, let us go to Diagon Alley, to get your school supplies. Here is a list of all the things you need.' said Headmaster Dumbledore, handing us both a piece of paper.

'Wand…?' I heard Bianca mutter.

We walked down the stairs again and Headmaster Dumbledore led us to the backyard, if you can really call it that, where he stopped before a wall made of stones. The stones looked a thousand years old.

'Weird thing to put in a backyard.' I muttered.

Dumbledore grabbed a stick from the inside of his cloak and started touching the stones in the wall. Bianca and I looked at each other and she gave me a look like: is this guy having a stroke?

Dumbledore touched one more stone and suddenly, like magic, the whole wall disappeared and made way for another street. Much wider than the last one we were in. There were shops everywhere. But they weren't just shops, they sold stuff like cauldrons and quills. Luckily there were also just normal book shops. The people here were also dressed in these cloaks, but more colourful now.

'Welcome to Diagon Alley.' said Dumbledore, his eyes twinkling madly. We walked straight towards a bank with white marble pillars. Above was some sort of poem:

ENTER, STRANGER, BUT TAKE HEED

OF WHAT AWAITS THE SIN OF GREED,

FOR THOSE WHO TAKE, BUT DO NOT EARN,

MUST PAY MOST DEARLY IN THEIR TURN,

SO IF YOU SEEK BENEATH OUR FLOORS

A TREASURE THAT WAS NEVER YOURS,

THIEF, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, BEWARE

OF FINDING MORE THAN TREASURE THERE.

There were a lot of … with very little people with sharp ears behind them. Dumbledore walked straight towards one.

'Are these… goblins?' I asked carefully.

'Yes, how did you know?' Dumbledore asked, handing the goblin called Griphook some coins that looked as though they were real gold.

'I've read about them…'

'What kind of school is this again?' Bianca asked, looking around in amazement.

'Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.' Dumbledore replied casually. The goblin was still looking at the golden coins.

'Witchcraft and… Wizardry…? Magic doesn't exist, right?'

'Didn't Alecto tell you? I'll tell you then.' Dumbledore took the other golden coins Griphook gave him and walk off, we followed quickly. 'So, as you may have guessed, magic does exist. Hogwarts is a school for wizards and witches from any kind of bloodline. You are both half-bloods, of some kind. There are four houses in which you will be put in, and with whom you'll attend classes. You'll both attend the first year, even though you aren't the right age, because you two are special cases. For those lessons you'll be needing all the things on your list, like a wand and a cauldron. We can buy those things here in Diagon Alley with these coins. The gold ones are called Galleons, the silver ones Sickles and the bronze ones Knuts. Now let's get your wand first.'

We walked out of the bank, Bianca and I still very confused, and Dumbledore led us to an old-looking shop. It was brown and above the big window it said: Ollivander wands since 382 B.C.. A boy about my age walked out of the shop with his parents. He had black hair that went till his shoulders, a black hoodie with the cap over his head and an army pants. He looked kind of grumpy. His parents looked like very strict people, especially his mum. They also had black hair and fancy clothing. The boy didn't seem to like his parents very much. I felt kind of bad for him.

'Ah, Bianca di Angelo, I've been waiting for you.' A man behind the counter said. My sister looked at him wide-eyed. 'I have been saving this wand for you.' He gave Bianca a green coloured box. She opened it and inside was a wand. A wand, still weird. It was a light brown colour, pretty decorated. Bianca picked the wand up kind of clueless. It looked ridiculous in her hand. 'Cypress wood with a Unicorn hair core 10 ¼" and Surprisingly Swish Flexibility.'

'What am I supposed to do with it?' Bianca said kind of foolish.

'Swish it. See if it's a perfect fit.' Dumbledore said from the back. Bianca waved her hand and a few silver sparks flew out of her wand.

'Aaaah.' Dumbledore and mister Ollivander exclaimed at the same time.

'Wow, Bianc, that's so cool.' I told her. Bianca looked so shook, just staring at the wooden thing in her hand.

'I think we found a match. Now just one for the gentleman over here.' Mister Ollivander finished looking at me. Oh no, now my wand. 'Hmmm, which wand, which wand…' Ollivander mumbled while searching through his huge archive. He found Bianca's wand in a few seconds, maybe I wasn't good enough for one of his wands… 'Try this.' He said and gave me a wand that was inside a purplish box. The wand itself was silver and pretty long.

'Silver lime, isn't it, Garrick?' Dumbledore's voice rang from the back. What a funny name, Garrick.

I picked the wand out of its box and swished it, like Bianca had, but nothing happened.

'Maybe not.' Ollivander took the wand back with caution. He gave me a few others, but still nothing happened.

'What's wrong?' I asked a bit scared.

'Nothing, nothing, just have to find the right wand. This happens often, not to worry.' Ollivander said while he was searching around. 'Maybe this.' I swished the new wand, but again, nothing. I was getting hopeless. Bianca would go to this magic school, and I had to stay with lawyer-man.

'What about that one?' Bianca asked, pointing at a green blue box.

'Elder wood? Well, we can try, can't we?' Ollivander gave me the box and I opened it, knowing this wand wouldn't work either. The wand was dark brown. I swished it half-heartedly and to everyone's surprise, a greenish mist flew out of the tip.

'I knew it!' Bianca exclaimed, ruffling my hair.

'Well, I think we can assume great things from you, Mr. di Angelo.' Ollivander looked at me with respect.

'What is the wand core, Garrick?' Dumbledore asked, also looking at me with respect. Why were they being so weird?

'Phoenix feather. From Fawkes, I may say. Only one Fawkes wand left. It's 9 ¾ inch and an unyielding flexibility.'

'A Fawkes feather, wow. Last one was sold to Tom Riddle, wasn't it?'

'Ah, yes indeed.'

'Who are Fawkes and Tom Riddle?' I asked.

'Fawkes is my phoenix, and Tom Riddle, well, you'll find out soon enough. Goodbye, Garrick, nice seeing you again.' Dumbledore said as we walked away again. 'I'll leave you two at Madam Malkin's Robes for All Occasions, and then I will get your books.'

Dumbledore stopped in front of a little shop. he gestured us to walk in and went inside the next shop himself. Bianca and I walked in and a woman (probably Madam Malkin) smiled at us.

'Hogwarts, sweethearts?' She asked. We nodded. 'Come here, many students visited today.' She stood me on a stool next to the boy we saw earlier, and Bianca net to me. Madam Malkin slipped a long, black robe over my head and began to pin it to the right length. Another witch did the same for Bianca. It was silent for a while. Kind of awkward.

'Hi, first-year, too?' Bianca asked the boy.

'Yeah.' he replied grimly.

'Not exited?' I asked, I was getting more and more exited to go to Hogwarts. Goblins, wands, weird dresses, what's not to like?

'I'll be finally away from my parents, which is nice.' The boy answered, looking out of the window at his parents.

'Aren't you going to miss them?' Bianca asked surprised.

'My parents are horrible people. What about yours?' I looked at Bianca, who was going to answer this sad question? She looked at me like: "I'll take it this time."

'Our mother died when we were young, and we never knew our father.'

'Oh, I'm sorry,' the boy said taken aback, 'Here I am, complaining about my parents, while your fate is much worse.'

'That's okay.' Bianca said, and it was quiet again. I was starting to like this boy, it sounded like he really meant what he said.

'What's your name?' I asked after a few minutes.

'Sirius Black.' What funny names do wizards have.

'You Sirius?' I joked and Sirius smiled.

'I'm sorry for my brother, you must hear that joke a lot.' Bianca smiled.

'Yeah, pretty often. I don't mind though, I use it a lot myself.'

'I'm Nico di Angelo.'

'And I'm Bianca di Angelo.'

'Di Angelo, where are you from?' Sirius was almost done with his dress-thingies.

'Italy.' Bianca and I said at the same time. The three of us chuckled. Now Sirius really was done with his… robes? I think they are called robes.

'I'll see you at Hogwarts, di Angelo's.'

'Bye.' Sirius walked of, and we saw him walk to his parents with an annoyed look on his face. His mum said something to him and dragged him away.

A few seconds later a girl with fire red hair was stood on the stool next to Bianca.

'Hi, going to Hogwarts for the first time too?' She asked full of excitement, nothing like Sirius.

'Yeah, we are.' Bianca replied.

'Great, I'm Lily Evans.'

'We're Nico and Bianca di Angelo, nice to meet you.'

'Wow, what a pretty surname.'

'Thanks.' Madam Malkin and the witch who was making Bianca's robe told us we were done, and we walked away. 'Bye.'

Outside, we met up with Dumbledore again. 'That took quite long, so I have already go all your stuff. But if you want pets, we can go in Magical Menagerie for a quick second. Or Eeylops Owl Emporium, if you'd like an owl.'

'I think I'd like an owl, yeah,' Bianca said, 'What about you, Nico?'

'I want a kitten! They're allowed, right?'

'Yes, of course, the whole castle is swarming with them. Besides, McGonagall is a cat, sometimes.' Dumbledore said casually like he has said everything else weird.

'Who is McGonagall?' Bianca asked.

'And how can she be a cat?' asked rathe rudely.

'Nico, please.' Bianca snapped.

'What, don't you want to know?'

Dumbledore smiled at me, 'Professor McGonagall is the Transfiguration teacher at Hogwarts. The same subject I use to teach. And she is an Animagus, which means she can turn into cat-from whenever she'd like.'

We walked into the shop, which smelled a little funny, and I was surprised that there were so many cages inside. Everywhere I looked I saw an owl. A lot of different owls; brown, black, white etc.

'Wow, look at this one.' Bianca said, petting a little, white owl with a few black feathers here and there.

'That's a Little Owl.' A woman, who probably owned the shop, told Bianca.

'I know, so adorable and little. But what kind of owl is it?'

The woman smiled, 'It is called a Little Owl. That's the kind.'

'Oh.' Bianca said a bit ashamed.

'Do you like it?' The woman asked.

'Yeah, I think I want to buy it. Is it a girl or a boy?'

'A boy.'

'How much is he?' Dumbledore asked.

'Oh, Sir, I hadn't noticed you yet.' The woman was blushing now. I think, it was very dark in the shop.

'Well, hello Mrs. Eeylops, I haven't seen you since, what year was it? 1923?'

'Yeah, yeah. Anyway, this owl costs 5 sickles.' Dumbledore handed her the money. 'Have a nice day.' The woman called after us.

'You should call him Hermes.' I told Bianca and she laughed.

A few seconds later we were in front of an even fuller pet shop than the last one. This one didn't have any owls, but it had tons of other animals. From cats to toads to some kind of mix of the two. I immediately saw a cute little black kitten. I ran to it with high speed, already loving it. I petted it and it walked in my hand, that's how small it was. It lay in my hand, purring.

'I'm gonna call you Artemis. You seem like a strong kitty.'

Bianca laughed, 'You and your gods.'
