Chapter 4: Getting A Quest

Harry's POV

I was shocked at how many students that went to Hogwarts were demigods. Draco Malfoy and his goons were among those that had arrived. Every one of them shocked me, by telling me that Ron and Hermione had no right to turn their backs on me. It helped, but I was still angry with Ron and Hermione. Capture the Flag came around and that morning I had managed to get a handle on the sword. Charles told me that he had made it based on what Zeus and Hera wanted. On one side was the symbol of my father, the lightning bolt, and the second was the symbol of my mother, the peacock.

Another strange effect that the sword had was that it could blast with lightning. How Charles manages this, I don't know. But Luke got hit with it and had to be sent to the Infirmary. This led to a bet on how long it would be before another camper got blasted by my 'sword of thundering death.'

"Draco, Luke isn't dead," Ginny told him. "And Harry didn't know that the sword could do that."

"Okay, fine," Draco said. "But it's still the sword of thundering death."

I heard Ginny groaning.

Capture the Flag was a Friday event that everyone at camp took part in. I wasn't sure how I would handle being around those that had far more experience. I had a funny feeling that it would be 'Crème Harry Potter.' Clarisse at once added me to the team.

"I want to pay Jackson back for the bathroom thing," she snarled.

"And how do you know that Annabeth isn't using your anger to get you to do something stupid," Ginny suggested.

"Just watch my back, pretty girl," she said and then she stormed away.

"Why do I have a funny feeling that Annabeth has this all planned out," I said.

"Well I think that we should worry about the members of Hermes cabin. Fred and George are bound to come up with something to ruin her victory."

"And make her mad in the process," I added.

Capture the Flag, of course, had to go not our way. True to what Ginny had said; Clarisse fell for Annabeth's trap. Fred got the flag but then a Hellhound appeared. Severus sent it back to the Underworld but it was enough for Poseidon to claim Percy as his son. Remus said, "Why do I have a bad feeling that Poseidon only claimed him because he needs his name cleared."

"What, you think that the gods think that Poseidon stole whatever?" I asked.

"Oh I think that Zeus thinks he knows that Poseidon did it," Severus said. "This isn't good, not good at all."

The next morning I saw Grover taking Percy up to the Big House. I didn't think anything of it and went about my business. I was no longer interested in what others were doing. Not after what had happened at the castle. An hour later I saw Percy with Annabeth and Grover leaving on a bus. I figured that they had gotten a quest.

"And what the heck are you still doing here?" a woman asked.

I was folding the small amount of clothes that I had, that fit, in my trunk. The woman that had talked to me was giving me an odd look.

"I wasn't given a quest," I told her.

"As your mother I want you to follow Percy and his friends," she said, "I want to prove to your father that Poseidon didn't steal the bolt or had it stolen."

"So you want me to go and ruin Percy's quest," I said.

"Of course," she said, "And take Severus and Sirius with you. They have more training. Before you go, I have to give you something. Consider a gift from Aphrodite, don't know why."

She gave me an envelope that turned out to have a card inside it and some 'muggle' money. I got packed and went to tell Sirius and Severus that we were on a quest. An hour later we were outside what had to be the strangest business that I had ever seen. Why was it strange? Because they sold garden gnomes!

"Why do I have a bad feeling about this?" I asked them.

"I don't know why we're even here," Sirius said.

"Because this is where my mother told me they were at," Severus told him. "And I did handle the transportation here."

I saw Sirius rolling his eyes.

"Can we please not argue," I told them. "It's giving me a blasted headache."

"Fine, but only because you want me too," Sirius said.

Severus shook his head and then we headed towards the store, my dread growing.
