Myth and Magic in the East

Must band together to conquer a beast

Unknown ties will unite

The Eternal Fire shall ignite

It wasn't everyday Rachel spouted out a prophecy. When it did happen though, it was always cause for worry. No one ever knew how soon it would come, or who would be involved. Most people assumed it had to do with Percy, but wasn't three major quests a little much in a lifetime, even for him? Either way, the campers went to work immediately. It was always wise to find out the meaning of a prophecy as soon as possible after it was spoken, and the cabin heads gathered around the ping pong table with Chiron and Rachel, dissecting Rachel's words and looking at them all individually. They had already been there for hours when there was a quiet knock at the door. Eva walked in as soon as the door was opened, and she looked more nervous than normal.

"I'm sorry. I should have told you sooner."

The people at the table looked at each other nervously. "I'm sorry?" asked Chiron.

"The prophecy. I don't know all of it, but I think I know some. I shouldn't have let you mull it over this long. See, there's a large community in Europe. They're wizards, and they have this wizard school called Hogwarts. I've never been there personally, but I've heard stories. And I've heard stories about prophecies like these, too."

"So what does it mean?" asked Percy.

"It means some of us are traveling to England."

Harry Potter's POV:

It was around 7 when we were all called downstairs. Ron, Fred, George, and I had been playing cards when Mrs. Weasley yelled for us to come to join the Order in the basement. With a loud crack, the twins had apparated, leaving me and Ron in the dust. When we stepped into the hallway a few minutes later, we were joined by Ginny and Hermione, and we all hurried down to the basement where the meetings were held. When we walked through the door, I noticed everyone seemed apathetic, making it extremely hard to read the emotion of the room. For a very long time everyone sat in silence while I tried to think of every possible reason we could be needed here. After what felt like an eternity, Dumbledore walked in.

"I apologize for my tardiness," he said calmly, "I was working out some details." He took a seat at the head of the table and grabbed a scone from a plate.

"Alright, let's get on with it. I don't mean to keep you waiting any longer than I have to." He cleared his throat "On extremely short notice, a group of students from America are transferring to Hogwarts. They will stay here for the remainder of the summer."

"Transfer students?" asked Hermione "From what school?"

"They are from a summer camp. I don't know all the details yet, but I will pick them up tomorrow. If I am correct, there should be around 10 of them."

Mrs. Weasley cut in, "Children, if you could get some rooms ready that would be great."

We agreed and took off up the stairs to prepare for our visitors.

Hey all, read and review! Once again, this chapter was written by one of my best friends. Couldn't take full credit for it if I tried.
