I was thinking of having Mare be able to charm speak, send your thoughts. Just so you know Mare will be returning to Hogwarts for her second year. You'll find out soon what I mean. I have already written a big part of the story a am just splitting them up so it wouldn't be 15,000 words in one chapter. Hope your summer has been nice.
Same Disclaimer as always, I don't own anything besides things I have created.
Mare's P.O.V.
A week had passed and I sucked at all my classes. Somebody else may have been mad or would try to do better, which I still did, but I was sort of happy that maybe if I sucked at magic I would have my mom's powers whatever they were. I went up to my room at the end of the day and sat down and wrote my dad a letter.
Dear Dad,
I suck a magic I can't even make a spell go wrong because nothing happens. I do like it her at Hogwarts I just don't know if I am a wizard. Send your thoughts.
Love, Mare
I tied the letter to Sprouts leg and told her to take it to dad. After that I changed then went to bed. Sure enough the next morning at breakfast Sprouts dropped a letter on my toast. I quickly opened it and read,
Dear Mare,
You can't quit now, just try harder and we will see at the end of the year. I am busy at work so I may not reply as fast as I did this time. Love you Mare Bear.
Love, Dad
P.S. I fed Sprouts
It was almost Christmas and I still couldn't even master a simple light spell. I kept sending my dad letters and he just said the same thing each time, "Just try harder honey," and, "Wait until the end of the year." It was so annoying. Besides the fact that I can't do magic and I am made fun of because of it, I made a friend. Her name is Rose Garnai whenever someone bullies me she just tells me that I am the nicest and prettiest in the world, but what do you expect from a daughter of the goddess of beauty, but Rose didn't know that. Though she was my best friend I never told her about my mother or why I probably won't be here next year. She was also a Hufflepuff first year with Hair she dyed purple almost always in a ponytail. We were sitting doing charms homework when Rose said something she has never asked me before, "So I was just wondering why you have never told me about your mother." I didn't know how to answer it I mean she was my best friend so I think I could tell her right? So I said, "Can you promise to keep a secret?"
"Yes, but what is so secretive about your mom?"
"Just Promise"
"Okay Okay, I promise."
"Do you know about the gods of Greek mythology?" She nodded. "So my mother is Aphrodite." She covered her mouth with her hands. She was about to get up as if to tell someone, but then a gave her a warning look and she sat back down. Maybe I shouldn't have told Rose.
(A few months later)
Rose hasn't talked to me since I told her, but from all I know she hasn't told anyone. I was walking by myself down to the green house for Herbology when I heard someone behind me scream. I looked behind me to see a creature taller than Hagrid with only one eye. It was a cyclops. I ran towards the left and the monster followed me. Why was the monster following me? I tried some spells, but as usual nothing worked.
I was running for my life now, but for some reason I had an instinct to stop running and fight. I ran towards Hagrid's garden and grabbed a hoe. I ran up to the Monster and stricked it's ankle, but it seemed not to be harmed at all. It looked down at me and kicked me all the way up by the steps. Then I went unconscious.
I woke up on a bed with my head pounding and my vision blurry. I saw Madam Pomfrey about to feed me something. She stopped when she saw I was a wake then said, "She's awake." I was worried so I asked, "How long was I out?" Madam Pomfrey looked at me and said, "Just a week." A week! Was it really that bad, I thought to myself, then Hermione sat next to me. I think she even knew I didn't belong her.
"Hello Mare a women named Dite came and she wants to talk to you." Hermione said.
"Okay." I said because I don't know a person named Dite.
Hermione walked away then my mother walked in. I was surprised and figured that Hermione just said her name wrong.
"Mare I am going to take you to Camp. I can't let another attack happen to the only PureHalfBlood." she said.
"Okay wait what I am the only what." I said in confusion.
"You are the only PureHalfBlood which is a brand new thing. It is a child of a god and a wizard." She quickly changed the subject, "Thank you so much for deciding to go to camp with me. Tomorrow back all your stuff up and meet me in the headmaster's office understood." I nodded still confused. Then in a flash she was gone. After a minute Madam Pomfrey walked in and told me to drink a goblet full of this weird purple liquid that tasted like cinnamon and grapes. Right after I drank some I went fast to sleep.
I woke up feeling great and sat up in the bed. Madam Pomfrey hurried over and told me I could go back to my room because apparently people just started to go down to breakfast. I walked down stairs through a corridor and into the Hufflepuff common room. I did as my mother asked and packed up my stuff and headed to the headmaster's office.
Aphrodite's P.O.V
(A week or so before)
I was watching over Mare one day as she walked to class alone. I felt sad for my daughter, but I also knew that she got my powers not just because she looks almost exactly like me, but she can't do magic. All of a sudden a full grown cyclops appeared. I wish I could flash down and help, but I couldn't. It started chasing her and so she ran, but all of a sudden stopped. She ran to her left and grabbed a garden tool and swung at the monster, but like I expected nothing happened because it wasn't made out of celestial bronze. I was proud of her for trying though. I almost screamed when the monster kicked Mare a couple hundred yards. I flashed myself inside the headmaster's office.
"Who are you and how did you apparate into my office." The headmaster said. I gave her a confused look because I didn't know what she meant by apparate and said, "I am Aphrodite goddess of beauty and love and my daughter Mare Potter got knocked unconscious by a cyclops." The headmaster admittedly stood up and ran down stairs running outside and she carried Mare to the hospital wing. I went back to observing while the nurse helped Mare.
I was starting to get worried when a week went by and Mare wasn't up yet, then I breathed a sigh of relief when she sat up in her bed. I flashed into the headmaster's office again and informed her that Mare was awake. I walked to the hospital wing with the headmaster on the way telling her how she could make herself look nicer which she did not like. The nurse and the headmaster talked with Mare before I was allowed to go up and talk to her. I realized it wasn't even safe here for her the safest place for her is Camp Half Blood. I sat next to her and said, (you already read this dialogue from Mare, same stuff) then I flashed away back to Mount Olympus.
Mare's P.O.V.
I knocked on the wall and asked for the headmaster sure enough Hermione came out and walked me up the steps. Like my mother said she was standing right there ready for me except she was with another person that looked exactly like me.
"Mare this is your older half-brother Ross." My mother said gesturing to the boy standing next to her. He was defiantly taller than me and older, probably 17 or 18, but that was just a guess it is not like I am the daughter of Athena. My mom continued to speak, "He will be taking you to Camp Half Blood in New York you are going to take a plan then you are going to take a taxi then walk passed the boarder understood." I nodded. Muggles have planes, that is how they travel far distances. I have never ridden in one before. I know all of this about the muggle world because I read all about it and asked my dad to get me a computer too because I thought my mother was a muggle. Anyway she teleported me and Ross to the airport gave us the tickets and some money and … swords? She teleported us passed the security counter to inside the right terminal, then she left.
"Hey Ross." I said
"Yeah"
"Why did she give us swords?" I asked. He looked at me like I was stupid then said, "If a monster attacks us then we are going to have to be prepared right?" I nodded in agreement.
"Why would a monster attack us and how can they find us." I said. He hit the palm of his hand to his forehead and for the second time in a few seconds looked at me like I was stupid.
"You really don't know anything. Ahh okay. Since we are children of gods we fight against the monsters and if there are less of us to fight against them they could try and over throw Olympus. The reason they find us so quickly is because we give off a scent. This is probably a lot to take in." He said and I was about to say, "Duh of course it is." Then before I could we heard over the speakers, "The flight from Heathrow Airport to John F Kennedy International will be boarding in five minutes."
Ross's P.O.V
We started to board the plane. Me and Mare didn't talk, but I couldn't help feeling sorry for her. I mean knowing nothing and then finding out she belongs to a different world after growing up in another. I was also thinking about how deep that sounded. I grew up with a mortal, well obviously since I was a demigod, and as soon as I turned ten my dad took me to Camp Half Blood that was seven years ago. I was pretty stoked my mom wanted me to help the ONLY wizard demigod EVER.
The flight was smooth and all I did was watch movies while Mare read. I don't know how she could have read the entire time, but I think it partially had to do with the fact she didn't know how the screen worked.
We got off, got our luggage and went out. I have seen the city many times before, but I was pretty sure this is Mare's first time to the U.S. She kept on pointing an asking questions. I liked her accent, but sometimes it killed me when she said some things that were different in American I guess you would call it.
I don't know much about English culture. Anyways I just had to say that in case I offend anyone. I hope you liked this chapter. REVIEW. I always love to see what my readers think of my stories. I will try to update as much as I can. If you send me a PM I will most likely respond.
