Sorry again I haven't updated this sooner, I've been rather lazy and I've been in more of a reading mood than a writing mood. But I had to update today since my friend has been driving me nuts telling me to update.
Harry's POV
The day after we moved in, Ginny and I were just heading over to Ron and Hermione's house so we could apparate to the Burrow together. We had just knocked on the door when we heard a loud crash.
Ginny turned to me and said, "That couldn't be someone apparating could it?"
"I don't think so, apparating is normally just a loud crack, not a crash," Hermione answered appearing at the door.
"Laistrygonian giants!" A voice screamed somewhere on Olympian street.
"We better go check it out, that came from the muggle area. Don't want muggles getting attacked by any giants do we?" Ron said as he came out the door with Gloria.
I turned to Ginny and said, "Ginny floo the kids to the Burrow, then come back if you can."
"Yeah, I wouldn't want any of the kids getting hurt on their second day here," Ron said.
"Okay, see you at the Burrow or here in a bit." Ginny said and added "can I use your fireplace?"
"Sure, but don't destroy anything on the way there." Ron said jokingly.
"Ron!"
"I was just joking Hermi-"
"I don't know about you guys, but I'm heading down to Olympian street." I cut in
"No, we're coming, Ronald here is just fooling around as usual," Hermione replied
After Ginny and the kids disappeared into the fireplace, Ron ran down to Olympian street with Hermione and me jogging after him. But when he reached it, he stopped short.
There in front of me were a dozen giants. What I didn't understand was that there muggles fighting them with swords and other weapons. They were fighting like they trained their whole lives for it.
"Percy!" A woman with blond hair screamed as she was grabbed around the waist by the giant she had been fighting a second before.
A guy with jet black hair and looked a lot like me turned and his eyes widen, "Annabeth!" He yelled and rushed over to the giant and stabbed him in the back. The giant turned to dust. As Annabeth fell, Hermione casted a cushioning charm under her.
"What the," Annabeth said in confusion
Just then an emo looking dude fell at her feet with a nasty looking gash on his forehead. "Nico!" Annabeth cried as she pulled out a drink of some kind… apple juice perhaps? She trickled a few drops of it in his mouth and he groaned, his gash closing up.
I turned to Hermione thinking that she would have an answer to what was going on, but she just stood there dumbfounded, Ron had the same expression on his face.
"Connor, do you have any matches left?" A guy with curly brown hair yelled at a guy slightly shorter than him.
"No! I used all of mine fighting off a stupid Laistrygonian giants," The guy shouted back.
"Incendio!" Ron yelled pointing his wand at the giant whom was fighting the guy who needed matches. The giant turned to dust.
"Ron why did you do that?" Hermione half scolded him.
"He needed fire so I shot fire at the giant he was fighting." Ron reasoned.
"You're going to give us away!" Hermione said.
"Give what away?" The guy who needed fire asked.
"Nothing!" The trio said.
"Travis! Get back over here!" Connor called.
"I'll be back, but when I do, I expect an answer," Travis said. With that, he turned back to the battle.
The battle went on, Hermione, Ron and I helped a few more times, each time earning confused looks each time.
When the battle ended, the warriors came over to where we were standing and started asking us questions:
Who are you?
How did you do things with just a stick?
How did you see through the mist?
How did you get here?
Etc.
I couldn't think of a way to explain and not reveal who we were, and by the looks of it, neither could Ron and Hermione.
I hope you liked this chapter, I might update again next Saturday if I have any good ideas for this story.
