Chapter Five
Harry's POV
He was shaking from the core. When he was facing Voldemort he never felt this scared. But Voldemort wasnt fully healed and now he is. But this was different, he could literally feel the hate and anger roll off of him like waves. Gulping He took a step out of the trees. Percy's eyes were like the ocean during a storm, dangerous. Very dangerous.
" 'arry whatcha doin here'?" Hagrid asked his accent calming him down slightly, Harry didn't answer instead he flickered his eyes between both him and Percy. He had a feeling they were about to say Dumbledor.
What do they want with him. More importantly what does Percy want with him.
"S-sorry" Harry stuttered, the truth was he really was, he never meant to eavesdrop, he was naturally curious and nosey.
Percy's expression softened, he unclenched his fist amd calmed his dilemma. "If you needed to talk to Hagrid you could've just asked." His voice was stern but kind, a voice a true leader has. "we could've been talking about something personal, really personal."
Percy looked broken, he was always keeping his head down, never talking to anyone minding his own business. Harry hears the rumors which goes around the school. How the dead people were killed by him. How he got the scar on his face as a reminder of the muerders he committed.
His eyes were shattered, slowly losing the light of hope. The fire that keeps us running about to lose its spark.
He gave Hagrid a nod. Smiling at Harry he gestured him over, harry was hesitant. Shouls he go? Ignoring every bad idea popping in his head, he walked over to them.
"Hagrid has some work to do, hos taking this period off, and so are we"
"Can we get Hermione and Ron? Ginny might come aswell" Harry asked. He wasn't comfortable being alone with percy, je gave him a feeling of uneasiness, Harry excepted him to yell "Give me twenty"
But Percy didnt even bat an eyelash.
He nodded his head, "Sure just i dont want Hermione to question me about my life" He looked pained, like thinking about it gave him a head ache. "Please"
Harry nodded his head and felt sorry for the bloke, he knew Hermione for a long time and he knows how personal her questions can get.
Both him and Percy walked away from the spot under the trees and into the clearing where Hagrid was greeting the class. A few Slytherins were smirking in trimph, ahrry scowled probably thinking thay the Malfoys were able to get him fired.
Once Hagrid, was gone, His three best friends walked towards them, a boy who screamed death lurking behind them
Harry felt the need to call him out but percy put his hand on Harry's shoulder.
"Harry, this is my cousin nico, Nico this is Harry" They both observed each other, but while Harry was analysing him, Nico literally stared him down, Harry squirmed under his gaze. "He'll be coming with us today, if you dont mind."
Ron looked angry since he'll be going with a Slytherin, Ginny and Hermione really didnt mind,something Harry couldnt agree on. No he wasnt angry like Ron is, but he doesn't trust Nico that much. Some thing about him makes Harry feel like his associated with death somehow. He doesnt have the friendly feeling Percy has has.
"Come one then, I'll give you a tour through town." Harry said Brightly.
Timeskip
Percys POV.
Percy smiled. The first real smile in ages. who knew that Harry and his friends can get him to smile? Its just the trio and Ginny reminded Percy of the friendship he had in camp half blood. The only place he ever felt at home. He also needed to speak with Nico privately, but waiting for Thalia and Leo to explain his whole situation seemed better then explaining three times.
Yeah even though there was a war, Percy felt happy that he can finally get some peace even though if he makes one mistake, everything will come crashing down.
What got him anxious was the fact that harry over heard them. He doesnt know much he heard but he hopes it wasn't alot.
FlashBack*
Tears ran freely down his face, gods how painful that was for him, seeing them dead was enough once but twice? Percy winced at the thouht.
Yes. He was in denial about him mothers desth. He refused to believe it. Sniffing he left the school. Walking into the forbidden forest, he tensed, never letting his gaurd down he found a puddle and took out a drachma. The coin was as big as his hand and was carrot gold. The money of the Gods.
"Oh fleecy, do me a solid and show me Hades in the Underworld" After the quest with Frank and Hazel, the three promised the minor goddess to use her way of communication.
The scene in the message shifted. Tjere he was. A man who looked like an middle aged Nico. His skin pale as paper,his hair was sweeped back and he had a goatee. Just like nico je was wearing all black except that he was wearing a robe.
The castle itself was made of stygrion iron. Transparent ghost flew around the throne room. He literally saw one sweeping bones off the floor. But he wasnt surprised. As a demigod he learnt to except the un-excepted.
His uncle looked up. "Perseus" he started off twisting the top of his cane in boredom. Percy scowled at the usagusage of his first name. Only angry teachers, gods and monsters use it. "What can i do for you?"
Percy did not look happy thats for sure, with red rimmed eyes and a permanent scowl plastered on his fave most the time was just adding to the hideous scar on his cheek.
"What does it look like uncle? Is she dead?" he asked harshly. He wasnt in the mood.
"The athena girl? Yes long gone." Percys uncle rolled his eyes and gave percy a once over, "We've discussed this already. Shes dead and so is everyone else"
Percy clenched his fist. "Not them you freaking assh*le, im talking about my mother and paul."
Hades just raised his eyebrows and made a tsk tsk sound "Nephew, mind that foul mouth of yours and no. If your mother died i was ordered by the fates to automatically put her in the isles of the blessed."
Percy let out a sigh of relief ran his hand through his shaggy black hair thats good.
"Thank you" After his uncle nodded his welcome percy ran his hand through the message and turned around. There a giant man was standing.
"Uh, i h'eard nothin mate"
END OF FLASHBACK.
After that percy learnt that he was part gaint part human. But like Damsean he was a neautral giant. He somehow knew of the gods and Percy felt comfortable of telling him his plan,especially after he swore on the styx.
But the way Harry looks at him it was clear that he heard something. Maybe not the whole thing but an important part.
"Percy" A voice mused. He looked up to see a smiling Hermione. He just noticed how beautiful she was,but didnt dare speak it. He wasnt ready for another heart break. Especially since Annabeths death, he was a death magnet everyone he loves, they die. Painfully for that matter.
"Wheres every one?" He asked. He was so preoccupied with his thoughts he didnt notice them leave.
"Harry and Ron went for a walk. Ginny saw some of her friends and decided to join them. And for your cousin Nico? Well he never said where he was going. He just got up and left" He explained. Her voice was so soothing that he calmed down. She brused her wavy hair behind her ears and pursed her lips.
They say in a comfortable silence for a few minutes. "Look." She muttered clearly embarrassed " About the day in the dorm I-"
Percy held up his hand and silenced her. "Its long forgotten" In reality he was. He was never the one to hold grudges. And seeing how serious she was especially when she was so much like Annabeth it pained him too much to hold it against her.
She smiled gratefully. Her hand was in the table and she kept fidgeting, he realised she was nervous, with out thing he put his hands on hers giving it a soft squeeze. Pulling away he saw her face flush pink, he smiled at her and she shyly smiled back.
