So! Finally got through 2 weeks of no Wi-Fi, my editor leaving me (temporarily), a crap ton of homework (and more is on the way, since we're nearing the exams!), musical rehersal, tennis practice, and one very bad case of writers block. So, here's how it's going down. Next chapter, I'm introducing an OC. It's a girl (hooray!) and just a couple of things are going to have to be sorted out. Second, I made a mistake. The stroy takes place in the 6th book. I know, so pretty cool charcater development was supposed to take place and I just fucked it up, but TEE-HEE. I'm an asshole. Also, the red food is coming.
Chapter 3
Jason
The morning was a blur, up until the station. The wizards and the rest of us (meaning the demigods) were standing outside of a big London station called King's Cross (there was a lot of squinting involved until we came to that solution). I glanced over at Percy, who was just as confused as I was. I looked back at the stations.
"Uh… how exactly are we going to- Hogwarts?" There was a bit of laughter. I thought I said it, but apparently Percy was the one who blurted it out.
"By the train, dears. It leaves at 11, on Platform Nine and Three Quarters," Molly Weasley looked over at us, a little strangely.
I looked at Percy, then Nico.
"Platform nine and three quarters?" Will wondered aloud. "I thought they were only digits like 9 or 10," he asked.
We were walking through the throngs of people, trying not to get lost. The 'Golden Trio' walked a little ways behind us, whispering to each other. On my left was Percy and Will, chatting it up about some of the newest top hits or some shit. Nico on my right was silently brooding. Since it felt empty, walking to a train platform that is not supposed to exist, with a bunch of potentially dangerous people, I decided to try and make small talk. That probably wasn't the best idea.
"So… um…-" I was interrupted by a wall. A wall. I slammed right into it without even realizing. But I didn't feel like I slammed into a wall. It felt like moving through watery Jell-O. In short (and Percy understandable terms) weird. Once I got out of the Jello-y weirdness, I spotted a scarlet steam engine, with kids flooding on and parents hugging them with tearful goodbyes. When I turned around, Percy, Nico, Will, and the rest of the wizards appeared.
Percy had a look of complete shock on his face and proceeded to blurt out, "What the hot Belgium Waffles just happened?!"
Which was followed by Hermione saying, "Did you just cuss with breakfast food?"
In turn, Percy replied "I did. And I loved it."
Molly Weasley appeared behind us and with her most grandeur voice, said, "Welcome, to Platform 9 ¾!" She then told us that the train leaves at 11, I zoned out, then I was on a train. The Train. The Hogwarts Express.
While we were on the train, Percy decided to come up with the most utterly-impulsive-bound-to-get-us-expelled-on-our-first-FEAST idea that I ever agreed to do. Worse than one of Leo's (or the Stolls, for that matter) pranks. Nico was not one for the idea, but he got to reanimate some skeletons, so he was in.
"I'm glad we're not in the same cabin as the Golden Trio", I said, making air quotes around Golden Trio.
"They totally wouldn't be down with this plan!" added Percy. We just stared at him. Sometimes, I wonder how he's one of the most powerful demigods alive.
"No, it's because we finally get some alone time to talk about stuff. Seaweed Brain…" Nico muttered.
"HEY-" started Percy. Nico stood up, as if to challenge him, disturbing Will, who was asleep on his lap.
"Huh~" Will groggily said, waking up. Before it could escalate, I excused myself to go find Harry and the gang. As I was walking, I saw that most of the cabins were filled with robed people. I guess we're close to the school. I should tell them when I get back. Each cabin was filled with one specific colour. Some had blue lapelled robes, others had yellow or green. When the red started showing up, I sort of guessed I was nearing Harry's cabin. I could see a little lion on a crest on a red robe a couple ways back. They're from Gryffindor, right? It has to resemble a gryphon somewhat. When I finally passed a cabin with a bunch of redheads, I doubled back and opened the door.
"Hey guys! I just wanted to stop by…" I said, without really knowing what I was saying. My eyes swept over the group. It looked pretty normal, except there was one person who caught my eyes.
It's Luna… She got up and walked closer to me.
"J-jason?!" she muttered, surprised. I did the one thing I could.
"AYEEEEE-" I double pointed. To my surprise, she actually returned it.
"Fuck off!" shot Harry. We stared at him, mostly in shock. Harry seemed to be glaring at the Camp Jupiter tattoo. After a moment of silence, Luna leaned over and whispered loud enough for the rest of the cabin to hear.
"He has problems". At that, Harry completely lost it and stormed out of the cabin.
"What was that about?" I asked, puzzled. I turned to Ron and Hermione, but they were giving me a watered down version of Piper and Annabeth's death glare.
"Okay-" I retreated from the cabin and sprinted back to ours (Not before quickly discussing our plan with Luna, who happily agreed to do it with us).
As soon as I got back, the train stopped, and people from the other cabins got out, dressed for their first night back at school. Our group of demigods made our way off the train.
"Hey, what about our luggage?" asked Will, who literally fell out of the train. I was also wondering, but Nico had our answer.
"It will be delivered to our dorms or whatever. We head to the Sorting first."
"And how exactly-" Percy started.
"Hogwarts: A History, plus someone told me", Nico answered. We all stared at him.
"What?" he was clearly confused.
He then started heading towards a half-giant (Nico claims that was what he was. He looked like it too. I've seen real giants) yelling out, "Firs' years! Follow me!"
As the rest of the group followed Nico, I met up with Luna, somehow, and told her where to meet us. As I hurried to catch up with the group, I wasn't looking and bumped into Percy, nearly toppling him into… the water. We were going to the Sorting by boat.
"Perfect," Percy muttered, rubbing his hands. "Let's get started, shall we?"
-Line Skip-
Harry
As the rest of us non-first years filled into the Great Hall, I wondered where the transfers went off to. I was in a sour mood because of what happened earlier. I got really pissed off when Jason entered the cabin. Well, we were discussing some things, when Hermione brought up how she saw that Percy and Jason both had black marks on their right forearm.
"It's the Dark Mark! It has to be!" I had exclaimed, after seeing a mark on Jason's right forearm.
That's basically the whole reason. And when he getting buddy-buddy with Luna, it sort of ticked me off. So, as I was wondering, a bunch of the newbies got sorted. I applauded with the rest of the Gryffindors when we got a new one to join our ranks. I was waiting for Dumbledore to announce the transfers, but first he announced the teachers.
"This year, as potions master, we have Professor Horace Slughorn!" Dumbledore announced. I clapped excitedly. Does this mean Snape was fired?! My hopes immediately soared, but plummeted all the way to Hel (See what I did there?) when Dumbledore made his next announcement.
"And for Defense Against the Dark Arts, we have Professor Severus Snape!" Let's just say, I did NOT clap.
Before Dumbledore could say anything more, a loud rumbling noise came from outside the Hall.
"Huh?" and "What was that?!" came from the crowd of nervous first years. It sounds almost like… a ship. That was exactly it. The sound was the creaking of the hull of a pirate ship. The sound of rushing water reached my ears soon after.
"WHAT'S HAPPENING?!" a lot of the older students yelled.
As if the speaker were in the room with us, with a microphone, a seductive sounding female voice slowly sang a tune.
"Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me…" A deeper voice started laughing a throaty laugh, while the candles went out. Shrieks came from the hall. A storm started up, whipping water around. It reminded me of the sea…
As the cackling started to fade, the male voice came back and echoed, "Dead men tell no tales…" The storm picked up and the shrieking got louder. All traces of light were gone, except for the starry ceiling, but it was covered with clouds. I heard someone screaming loudly, when I realized it was me. WHAT'S HAPPENING?! DOES DUMBLEDORE EVEN KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON?!
The water outside was rushing faster now, nearing the Hall. Before anyone knew what happened, a loud CRACK! sounded. Only later did we realize it was the doors bursting open, under the water's pressure. The storm slowly started to die as a huge-ass wave surged through the doors. The lights were slowly flickering on to reveal something on top of the wave. It was… a pirate ship. It was small, but still, a PIRATE SHIP. And only then, did we realize what was happening. It was the transfers.
Ron
It was some sort of cruel joke. It had to be. On the small pirate ship on the big wave inside the Great Hall, were the transfers. They sounded like pirates, with their pirate-y shrieks. They looked like pirates. With their swords and eye patches and peg legs. And they had Luna. She was there, all right. Dressed like a pirate, yelling along with them. And worst of all, she looked completely fine with it. As the wave approached the teacher's table it slowed. That's when the singing started.
It started with that bloke, uh… Percy. He was dressed like a captain, with his knee-length leather boots, his white shirt, the long coat, and feathered hat (imagine him like Captain Hook, except waaaay hotter). He was looking through one of those pirate telescopes, at the front of the boat (it's Ron. He doesn't know any boat terms). Somewhere else, a flute, or some musical instrument started playing a sea shanty thing. When it started, Percy immediately joined.
"Do what you want 'cause a pirate is free, YOU ARE A PIRATE!" The rest of the transfers and Luna, though Nico wasn't there, joined in.
"YAR-HAR-FIDDLE-DEE-DEE, being a pirate is alright to be! Do what you want 'cause a pirate is free, YOU ARE A PIRATE!" They were doing something like a square dance or some shizz. After that verse, Luna pushed herself to the front (mind you that the boat is still on the moving wave).
"Yar-Har-Fiddle-Dee-Dee!" she started. About everyone else was shocked. She was wearing black leggings and a brown leather skirt with holes. Her boots were similar to Percy's, but were not knee-high and had a bit more heel. Her blouse was tucked in and poofed out, and she wore a black jacket with another pirate hat. I could literally hear half the students ask in dismay, "LUNA?!" She merely winked and went back to singing.
"If you love to sail the sea, you are a pirate!"
Percy then jumped from the little Crow's Nest thingy, where Jason currently was and shouted "WEIGH ANCHOR!" A loud THUNK! signaled that the anchor was down, instead of being on board. As soon as that happened, the wave stopped and flooded around the boat, making it seem like it's on the sea.
"YAR-HAR-FIDDLE-DEE-DEE, being a pirate is alright to be! Do what you want 'cause a pirate is free, YOU ARE A PIRATE!"
"ARR-YARR-AHOY AND AVAST, dig in the dirt and dig in it fast! Hang the black flag at the end of the mast, YOU ARE A PIRATE!" A different loud rumbling noise came, like something was trying to… break out of the ground. And something was. It was the skeleton of some sort of sea monster. It let out a horrible roar, and was directly in front of the boat. The male voice came again, echoing the same thing…
"Dead men tell no tales…" The room was dark again, only to be cast in a warm glow. Instead of being intimidated by the monster and the voice, Percy did a backflip off the boat and directly onto the monster's head. Jason floated off and stood in front of Percy and the monster on the dry part of the floor. But instead of being on the floor, he was hovering a foot off the floor. Will and Luna slid down either side of the boat on water slides made of water and stood on either side of Jason. As soon as they all landed (they all landed at the same time) they shouted "LAND HO!"
The bones crumbled away, leaving Percy standing on water where the head used to be. In the dust of the bones stood Nico, who was wearing his usual black clothing, but pirate style.
"YAR-HAR-FIDDLE-DEE-DEE! Being a pirate is alright with me! Do what you want 'cause a pirate is free, YOU ARE A PIRATE!"
Hermione
What just happened?!
Percy
As soon as it was over, the water retreated, the candles flickered back to life, everything was cleaned up. We were expecting accusations or booing or something to degrade us, but instead, in the following silence, a laugh rang out, clear as day. It didn't take many brain cells to figure out who it was. I whirled around, looking towards the Slytherin table, where a blonde was laughing his ass off, rolling on the floor like an idiot. I smiled, and called out his name.
"DRACO!" He looked up, tears in his eyes, grinning like the idiot he is. Everyone else was just looking at me like I was a fool. The small group of us ran over to him and helped him up.
"What, can't we greet a long-lost friend and brother?" Will sassed to the students. A good number of them gasped, and the Golden Trio just glared at us. Not just the Golden Trio, but the whole Gryffindor table.
"You assholes just don't get it," muttered Draco, his American accent coming back. Que more gasping.
"Man, it's good to see you guys again!" He ran a hand through his hair, trying to get the gel out.
"Uh, excuse me, Professor Dumbledore, is it time to get Sorted?" questioned Luna, who no longer had that dreamy expression.
Dumbledore, who was smiling (I guess he has a bit of a twisted sense of humor ;) from the prank let us come to the front.
"These are our transfers from America! Don't ask them anything! Just, don't! You will find yourself at the end of your incredible life. Now, Professor McGonagall will now present the Sorting Hat! Again!" A small raggedy hat was placed on a stool. I thought it was just a normal hat, but apparently it can talk. Of course, I didn't know that until it was put on Nico's head. The professor named McGonagall called out our names.
"Di Angelo, Nico!" Nico slinked up to the stool and the hat was placed on his head.
Nico
When the hat was placed on my head, it slipped over my eyes, blocking my sight.
Ah, a demigod. A voice in my head whispered.
"Who are you? I spoke aloud, realizing it only after the rest of the world snickered.
Why, I'm the Sorting Hat. My, what marvelous memories you have. You look like a Slytherin, but I see you cherish your friends… Yet you're sly and keep to yourself. Especially that secret… I'll put you in…
"SLY-" the hat faltered, as if seeing one of my many memories that are tucked away. It decided to delve into it a bit more, and I realized which one it was. Tartarus.
"Don't make me do this!" I pleaded desperately. I barely survived on my own, but I quickly thought of Percy. What he endured was even worse than me…
"GRYFFINDOR!" The hat shakily yelled.
What you have endured. Are enduring… How are you alive?
"Ask that to him…" I gestured slightly to Percy as I walked to the table with black clad, red lapelled students. They were glaring at me, whispers passing through.
"The hat was gonna say Slytherin…"
"He looks like a Slytherin…"
"He's friends with DRACO?!"
I decided to sit at the end of the table, where it was the least crowded. Away from them all. That hat knew I had a secret… Good thing it hasn't found out anymore…
Jason
Professor McGonagall continued to call out names, mine was next.
"Grace, Jason!" I trudged up to the stool, anticipating the certain doom I was about to enter. After the hat said something in Nico's mind, he made a face. If it was about secrets, let me tell you, I've got a LOT. Well, maybe not a lot, but a pretty major one. I sat on the stool, the hat placed on my head, covering my eyes.
Hmm… Not that much of a hard decision. Your posture and shirt explained it all, Mr. Grace. Gryffindor it is.
"GRYFFINDOR!" shouted the hat. The Golden Trio had a shocked look on their faces. I quickly trudged over to where Nico was sitting, alone but perfectly contempt. As I was making my way towards him, the Golden Trio had their eyes trained on me, but quickly returned their attention to the Sorting after they realized I was looking.
"Look man, Will is next," I told Nico, who started blushing furiously.
"Yeah, well, let's just see what happens…"
Will
When the professor called me up, I was scared shitless. I don't know what's gonna happen. And if Nico started screaming a bit, well then… But when the hat slipped on, everything changed.
A doctor? Keeping an eye on the son of Hades… and a romantic relationship?
I blushed at the hat's comment.
"Well…. you k-know… nothing like that.. but-" Gods, I'm a hopeless idiot.
Since you are a doctor, you would be placed in Hufflepuff, but under your circumstances….
"GRYFFINDOR!" The hat yelled out. Before the hat was taken off of my head I asked it something.
By the way, I never did catch your name… I thought.
Ah… A name. I hadn't had one since long before… Most people just call me the Sorting Hat. But that name is rather bland, don't you think? You would've made a fine Hufflepuff if it wasn't for your circumstance, with those wars…
The hat trailed off, as if in deep thought when I pulled it off my head, and headed to Nico and Jason.
(A/N: ii'm not goiing to put Draco or Luna's POVV, because iit's not theiir tiime yet. TH-EY AR-E iin GRYFFiiNDOR. S)(iit, ii started beiing a )(omestuck… ii'm gonna shut up now)
Percy
I was last to be called up. Which was strange, I should've been after Jason (Our saving Grace, let the gods bless him ;) and definitely before Will.
"Jackson, Perseus!" Called out McGonagall. I couldn't help to be embarrassed, even when nobody laughed. Guess it's because their villain is named Moldywart- or Voldemort. But instead of saying 'Oh, just Percy…' I had to make a bigger fool of myself and say.
"Sorry, Professor, but it's.." I paused for dramatic effect, strutting up to the hat humming "I'm headin downtown/ Cruisin through the alley/ Tip-Toeing/ In the street like Dally" As soon as I got to the stool I turned sharply and said:
"It's Persassy"
From the back I could hear Jason and Draco yelling out "OHHHH!" The rest of the world just looked a bit confused.
I let out a very audible sigh and sat down, a musty old hat being placed over my head.
Why hello. I've seen a lot of demigods today… it doesn't seem like you're much different…
The hat started looking through my memories, mostly of ones that were happier of the latter. Though, instead of living through those nice memories of me and my mom (It's the earlier stuff) all I could think about was This sort of smells like mold or How many people's heads has this been on?
The memories that did bring me out of my little thinkfest was when the memories of Camp Half Blood came.
You fought… the Minotaur? At eleven?!
That's when I started randomly cringing. All of those monsters, what they did… it was like I was literally reliving every single attack, raid, quest, anything. But what was the worst was when I saw Luke.
"L-luke?" came the strangled cry from my throat. A tear started streaming down my face. I didn't care if I was in front of thousands of foreigners or the gods themselves. It hurts to see an old friend. But that wasn't all. There was so much… more. Annabeth (she didn't die, I guess it was just her sacrifices), Bianca, Zoë, Beckendorf, Silena… their deaths, their sacrifices… it was all too much. I guess I started crying at one point. Also, most likely screaming. At myself. At Kronos. Calypso, Luke's mom, going insane. Then came the worst of it.
Nico
Tartarus. Percy screamed that single word out and went limp. It was too much for him to handle all at once.
I stood up and yelled, "TAKE THAT DAMNED HAT OFF HIM! HE CAN'T HANDLE IT!"
No one seemed to be listening. They were all transfixed on the hat and Percy. The hat was screaming. Percy was most likely unconscious now. But he could blow our cover any minute now. I'm surprised no one knew about that cursed Pit. I started to run towards him, determined to take off the hat. Jason, Will, Draco, and Luna also started towards Percy. Before I could reach him, the Golden Trio stood up.
"What do you think you're doing?!" I hissed at them. The Dying One (That's Nico's name for Dumbledore) stood up and glared at the Trio. Just when they were going to back down, the hat started making cohIserent sentences.
"The terrors… the emposai, the Lord of Time, betrayal…. Kampê… Iapetus… the Fates… his Fate… HE HAS PUT US ALL IN DANGER! His friends…. Luke and Beckendorf, Silena and-"
"ENOUGH!" Someone shouted. I turned and saw Will, steaming and red, tears streaming down his face.
"Yeah, it's been hard for all of us. Michael, Silena, Beckendorf… Luke even! The whole reason I'm even here is because of their sacrifices… but you know what? Even if they died, it wasn't in vain. You know why? Because of that man. Yeah, they were the ones who made the sacrifices, but the one who really got hurt the most? Percy. Most of us dreamed about living a different life, being away from reality. We all got our wish. But Percy? He didn't want a role in any of this! But he stayed with us.
"He went through the worst of it all. Being super important. Fighting shit. He didn't want anything to do with any of this! He fought two major, world shaking, wars. He could've saved the world or fucking ended this motherfucking madhouse. But he didn't. All of his friends, even his enemies… they lived on this fucking planet. He couldn't do that. Since he was one of those insane idiots who lived on this fucking planet too, he decided to save it. SO DON'T SAY HE HAS DOOMED US. BECAUSE, YOU KNOW WHAT?! HE'S THE MOTHERFUCKING SAVIOR OF THIS STUPID RACE!"
Will was on an emotional role now. I was surprised he didn't even give us away.
"IF ANY OF YOU…." He took a shaky breath to try and calm himself.
"If any of you, mess with any of us, I will PERSONALLY CARVE OUT YOUR EYES AND SACRIFICE THEM TO THE SUN. Is that clear?"
"Bro, don't go and scare them" whispered Jason, clearly frightened of this side of Will.
As soon as Will ended his rant, Percy woke up, screaming.
Percy
I was in Tartarus, confronting the arai. Annabeth was wandering, calling out my name.
'Percy? PERCY? PERCY where are you?!' She sounded panicked.
'Annabeth…' I panted. I had attempted to kill the arai, but all that got me was hundreds of curses piled on top of me.
'Bob… Bob, please… help Annie..' I pleaded to the silver titan standing and watching.
'Bob… please…' I was losing consciousness, but I could see Annabeth wandering near the edge of the cliff.
'PERCY?!'
'Bob, please… If-if I could have one last favor, c-can it be this?... I-if I die, just take Annie, try and get her back…'
'PERCY?!'
'Thank you, Bob. Even if you… don't do any...thing… Thank you for being there…' I lost consciousness.
When I woke up, I was going to the cave where Akhlys lived. We were on our quest for Death Mist. The dialogue zoomed by, until the part where Akhlys started sending off here poison. I don't remember it well, but at one point I started screaming, and everything was red… or white… or some color. Let's just say, that's not a good spot to be in when you wake up and forgot where you are.
So, now we're all up to date. I wake up screaming and que the worst way to make a first impression on a bunch of British people in a school full of wizards. Did I mention that we are Americans? In a wizard school? Full of Britons? In Britain? WIZARDS!?
So here I am, screaming my head off, everything looking like I'm back at Akhlys' cave. So pretty much, screaming, scared people, colors, and poison. Lots of poison. Now, it may have been poison, may have been whiskey, may have been this stuff they call Butterbeer. At one point, there was definitely blood. I guess it was my own. IDK. I guess I started standing and summoned a blood/whiskey/water/poison/Butterbeer hurricane thing. Then, next thing I know, I'm on the ground, Jason on top of me, Draco and Luna holding down my hands, Will is doing a mental health inspection (IDRK) and Nico's out in front of the students saying some Hocus Pocus shit.
So what I do, is even more stupid than what I previously just did. I pushed everyone off, walk up to Nico, whip out my wand and at the top of my lungs, yell out
"ABRACADABRA, MOTHERFUCKERS!"
Now, being an experienced wizard, nothing was supposed to happen. Since I was not an experienced wizard, but an experienced idiot, I expected something to happen.
And something did happen. A thin strand of water came from the tip of my wand. I guess it tazed everyone or something because it made them forget the blood/water/whiskey thing (I asked this kid the next day. He proved me right. I love the rare occasions I'm right…).
Well, I didn't get Sorted yet, so we found the hat, blubbering about doom and shit. It wasn't placed on my head again, but was screeching "PUT HIM IN GRYFFINDOR. I WILL NOT EVER BE PLACED ON HIS HEAD EVER AGAIN!"
Dinner was a blur. I don't remember much until we got up to our dorm-things. The Golden Trio was glaring in our direction most of the time. We sat in the common room and caught up with Luna and Draco. He really did keep his hair gelled up and acted like a complete asshole for 5 or so years. When we finally decided to go and attempt to sleep, Draco pulled me aside.
"Now, I know you're supposed to be protecting Potter, but sometimes he has a dark side, so… don't put too much trust in him".
I got out of my clothes (I go to sleep shirtless, I guess it just helps ;) and lay on top of the bed. Next to me, Jason did the same thing, Nico and Will passed out next to each other and Draco snoring away. The others were in a different room (we get private rooms cuz we too awesome ;)
"That was… eventful.." Jason said.
"I guess. Do you think we went to far with the prank?" I asked.I knew he wasn't talking about that, but I just didn't want to bring it up.
"I don't even know my own full potential. What if something happens here? How will they deal with it? How will we?" I know I'm not one to question things, but ever since Tartarus…
"Look man, don't worry about it. We've got a full year ahead of us. And if something does happen, we can Iris Message camp and we get to go there for breaks. Plus, if you can do some cool shit, we might end the Wizarding War right just rest, I mean, we've got school tomorrow. Unless you want to sleep in class…" Jason started to doze off.
"Thanks, man."
"Don't sweat it…"
Dumbledore
I was in my office, waiting for someone when a knock came at my door.
"Ah, my good friend. Please come in. I've been waiting. Have a lemon drop!"
A black clad figure entered my office, pausing at the mention of lemon drops.
"A what?" It asked as it glided over to my desk. It paused to look at the dish of candy.
"I think I'll pass…" It's nasally voice commented.
"Oh, Severus! Come on! Be adventurous! Try the muggle candy! It's quite good, but nothing compared to ours."
Professor Snape sighed and hesitated before popping one into his mouth. He seemed to struggle for a second, before asking.
"Why am I here, Professor?" I pondered for a while, thinking of my request.
"As you know, the transfers are demigods. The children of the Big Three, Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades. Also a child of Apollo. Things are complicated, but I am absolutely sure that by the end of the year, they will sort everything out.
"The child of Hades is hiding a secret. A secret that could bring their mission down. He also knows that I will die soon. But Severus, I what I ask of you is sort of irrelevant to this, just hang in there.
"The child of Jupiter is having… issues. He thinks the girl of his dreams is hiding something. The child of Apollo seems to be the only one that is stable."
"And what if the child of Poseidon?" Severus asked.
"Ah, Perseus Jackson. He is a different story. He may be unstable. He has not found his full potential yet. He is still plagued by nightmares of Tartarus. The Sorting Hat was right. His presence may have signaled a doom for Hogwarts. But Severus, what I ask of you may or may not be simple.
"I need you to go to Voldemort. You're already in his inner circle, but I need you to keep an eye on him. And remember what we talked about. Whenever you come back to the castle, and I am not here, you are acting headmaster. If both of us are not here, my good friend will be acting headmaster. Plus I have a teacher to replace you… I know you always wanted to be a DA teacher, but trust me, the demigods may or may not like this…"
"When do we leave?" asked Severus.
Ah, Severus. Never asks questions, never has a doubt… I will miss you…
"We both leave tomorrow. Early, so no questions are asked, now go and get some rest…"
"As you wish, Headmaster…"
Severus exited the room. I limped over to the Pensieve.
This curse… I grasped a memory from a jar and placed it in the Pensieve. Placing my face in the fluid, I looked down at the memory. It was when Gryffindor won the House Cup.
I really will miss you all...
Isn't it fun to mess with people? Especially in the last POV. So remeber. Comment, OC, 4th chapter, and red food. Sorry I didn't go into depth in Draco and Luna's resorting. Writer's Block (this is my new excuse for English class, when I don't have a paper turned in on time). So occasionally, you've seen parentheses in Percy's POV and wonder, hey, if it's not an AN, what is it? It's just Percy, breaking the Fourth Wall and ruling Teenage Girls (and other genders and ages) minds with winky simle faces ;). Smile faces. *It's SMILEY FACES YOU BITCH.* Well, can't wait for you guys to meet the OC! One problem. She doesn't have a name. 1st person who comments a GOOD NAME will get a shout out and the OC will be named the commented name. Shout out to anyone else who comments a name, but it doesn't used ;)
