He went home for Christmas only to see that they were moving, "Mum?" He called out, confused. His uncle walked through the house after he had picked him up. "Uncle Moody, why are we moving?" He asked.

"Well, it's dangerous for demigods to live in big cities." Moody said and walked through the living room, "There have been a few more sightings of monsters, and I'd rather be safe than sorry." He explained.

"When are we leaving for camp?" He asked.

Moody shook his head, "No camp yet, just New York." The man said, "I only know a few aurors there. No-one I can trust to look after my boy yet."

Sally walked through the door with a suitcase, "The stuff will be moved by Moody and then we go to New York." She said with a box in her hand. "That should be everything, uncle."

Moody smiled and pulled his wand out, waving it around in a circle and all the boxes were stacked together and suddenly shrunk. Percy's jaw dropped, "You should teach me that one." he said in awe.

"You'll learn it next year, kid." Moody grinned.

"That's even better, teach me now!" He said excitedly. "We're working on getting the house cup this year with nearly everyone."

"Hardworking badgers." Mood snorted, "That sounds right. Why should I teach you the spell early?"

"Because it'd give Hufflepuff points." He argued.

Moody grinned at his nephew. "I like the way you think, kid."

Sally cleared her throat, "Let's go?"

The house where they lived was something Sally had always wanted, a big white house with blue shutters. Two rooms overlooked the fields where Sally could sit and write. A porch wrapped around the house where she can drink tea and watch the sunset.

"How did you find this place?" She asked, her jaw on the ground.

"Well it was worn down a bit, I had a bit of help fixing it up." Alastor said as he limped through the door. Percy followed closely behind and looked around in awe. "Magic really helped a lot." He chuckled.

"What address is this?" Percy asked as he looked over the field and to another house, "Is this a wizard neighbourhood?" He asked as he looked at the several stories high house, four or five chimneys were perched on the red roof. His eyes then looked at the other house in the vicinity.

The other house looked like a giant rook. Percy wanted to grow huge and just play huge wizard chess with it. When his uncle told him the address, Percy's eyes widened, "The Weasley's live there!" he exclaimed and looked at the somehow standing house. "Fred and George gave me their address."

He then looked at the house in the far distance, "That must be where Cedric lives!" He said excitedly. Oh he lived near all of his friends now, that was great. "Do you think we could-"

"No time!" Moody exclaimed and dropped a bucket on the ground, holding his suitcase in his hands. "Hold on to your bags and me.

Percy looked at the bucket and back up at his uncle, "Is that a-"

"A port key. Good eye, kid." Moody said and nodded. "The house will be safe, a lot of runes and my old man is the secret keeper. No-one will find it unless we let them." He said and Percy grabbed his bag closer to him.

"I think we've still got that place in New York." Sally said, "The one mom had auctioned for."

"Did Estelle get it?" Moody raised his eyebrow and grinned, "Even better, now I don't have to find some secret hotel." He said and cleared his throat, "This will be unpleasant, just to let you all know."

He looked around the huge city in awe, the boards were moving and he accidentally walked into a big girl. "Watch it." She scowled. "Never seen New York or what?" She asked.

"Actually no."

"Oh god, it's a tourist!" She exclaimed and a blonde boy pulled her by her arm into the Empire State Building. "Fuck the english!" She shouted before the doors closed. A slim girl with black hair and chocolate brown eyes leaned in front of Percy.

"So sorry for Clarisse." She apologised and winked at him, "You're a cute english." She said before walking after the two into the building.

Percy blinked and looked at his uncle, "Are Americans always so rude or flirty?" He asked.

Moody in his disguise snorted, "Only if you walk into them kid." He said and Sally looked around. "I personally think that there is no in between."

"I missed it here." She said and took in the smell of gasoline. "Let's go." She said and started walking. Percy pushed through the crowd to keep up with the two adults. Eventually they end up at a big apartment building, it looked a bit worn but looked nice nonetheless.

"I keep forgetting that we're loaded." He said. Moody snorted.

"Hunting bounties gets you money, our family expertise is hunting bounties." Moody snorted, "Some aurors take it up as side jobs."

"Do you?"

He stepped into the apartment, "Does it look like I need to?" He questioned.

Their time spent in New York was nice, especially when they visited the MACUSA. It was a lovely building and Percy enjoyed seeing how different the magical fashion as from the British fashion.

He watched a Quidpod match with his family but realised that he didn't enjoy it as much as he enjoyed Quidditch.

The favourite thing he visited was the zoo, in the back there was a hidden place. It revealed a place with different habitats. It was the best place he has seen so far. He really enjoyed the Grindylow habitat.

The tour guide said that the place is a direct copy of Newt Scamander's suitcase without his headquarters and the original beasts.

When they got back to the U.K. Percy had bought souvenirs for everyone. A few American treats and two mug stating 'I3 NY' for the twins. He bought an animated spider, an Acromantula, that the zoo selled, it could be activated by the flick of the wand.

For himself he bought a dragon, a Hungarian horntail that was animated as well. The spell really fascinated Percy and he'd watch the dragon spew out real fire. He burned himself once or twice but that's fine, he'd just put his finger in a mug of water.

His thought once strayed to the girl who winked at him outside of the building. He frowned as he thought about the bigger girl, Clarisse.

"Gods, Americans are so rude."

He had a few dinners at the burrow with the Weasley's and got to know everyone. He liked the enthusiasm the father had about muggle things, he thought Ron was funny. Mostly because the boy was grumbling about not going to Hogwarts yet.

Ginny, their little sister. Was a shy one, she'd hide behind the couch or the curtains which wasn't effective.

He also had dinner with the Diggory's once. Everyone's family was so lovely.

Everyone returned to the school. He had missed everyone. Quickly he fell back into his routine. The next mail day, Tonks got some of Perseus' cookies to say thank you for helping him.

The prank wars quickly started to involve whole houses, Ravenclaws hid behind statues when they saw Hufflepluffs and Gryffindors nearing each other. Slytherins decided to walk in groups, that way they had eyes behind their heads.

Time passed and Perseus was getting stomach cramps, in response to the exams that they were gonna get. Eventually the snow melted and flowers were growing, spring came and winter passed.

Before he knew it exams were in front of him and the end of the year happened. They all sat in the great hall as they listened to Dumbledore announce the house cup winner. "In this moment I stand before you with pride and joy as we celebrate Hufflepuff's triumph in winning the House Cup!" The yellow table shot up in celebration. "Your dedication, loyalty, and unwavering spirit have propelled you to greatness. Let this victory be a testament to the power of unity and the strength of your Hufflepuff values. Congratulations, my dear Hufflepuffs! You have made us all proud." Dumbeldore announced.

Percy jumped around with an arm over Cedric's shoulder and looked over at the Gryffindor house with his tongue out. Fred and George rolled their eyes at him.
