_Harry_
The first day of November dawn with stormy clouds in the sky, thunder heard in the distant. The ground was wet, likely because of a storm. A chilling wind blew loudly around the castle and through the open corridors. Harry rolled out of the bed early in the morning, trying to avoid the redhead, who was snoring loudly in his bed.
He went to the Great Hall when he arrived there were a small number of students. Most of them were Ravenclaws who wanted to study or go to the library before the morning classes. A couple of 6th-year Slytherins and Hufflepuff were there too. At the Gryffindor table, the only student was someone Harry didn't wasn't to see, Hermione Granger, head buried in a book. Luckily she was so focused, that she didn't notice him, he seated as far away as possible from her.
It was still early for the champions reunion so after breakfast, he went outside to walk around the lake. The weather didn't bother him, it was just a storm, and oddly it made him feel better.
He arrived early to the meeting, none other champions were there, just professor Dumbledor and a group of cloaked people, their identities covered by the hoods.
-Welcome Harry, you are a little early, my boy. Why don't you sit and wait for the other champions?
He nodded and seated in one the sofas facing the unlit chimney. At 10 o'clock the other participants arrived. None other teachers or head of the other heads of schools came, they probably had classes.
- It seems that we are all here now, sadly Barty and Ludo couldn't come today, so I will give the instructions for the first task myself. But first, let me present you the advisors of the tournament, they are students of my good old friend Chiron -Dumbledore said.
He wasn't the only one surprised by the name, Chiron was the Greek trainer of demigods, Cedric appeared to recognise the name too. The cloaked figures pulled off their cloaks, for the first time he could see them. There were all young, not a single adult between them, they were very different from each other. Some of the faces were familiar, and if his suspicions were right, some of them were his sister friends. They presented themselves as petitioned by Dumbledore.
-Clarise la Rue, daughter of Ares -she had brown hair and a mean expression.
-Chris Rodriguez, son of Hermes- he was blond with blue eyes and a troublemaker grin, that reminded him of the Weasley twins.
-Annabeth Chase, daughter of Athena -she had curly blonde hair and stormy grey eyes.
-Percy Jackson, son of Poseidon -he had sea-green eyes and untidy black hair like his, and was holding hands with the previous girl.
-Katie Garner, daughter of Demeter -she was brunette with green eyes and kind expression, Neville's sister.
- Will Solance, son of Apollo -he was blond, with tanned skin and a happy expression
-Nico di Angelo, son of Hades -he was the last to speak, and was the opposite to the previous kid, black hair, pale and with a haunted look. And he could almost swear that the temperature of the room dropped a couple of degrees, when he talked.
-Well, now that presentations are over, the tournament. The first task will be to test your courage, no other clues will be given. That's all, now I think you have classes to go, you can speak with the advisors later if you want.
Durstram and Beauxbaton champions left the room after Dumbledore, leaving Cedric and him with a group of strangers. The daughter of Athena was looking at him like he was a puzzle, making him uncomfortable. The son of Apollo broke the silence.
-So this is the mysterious magical school, eh Ced -he asked Cedric.
The older boy looked at Harry, before confirming that he was a son of Apollo too, and that's why he had believed him yesterday from the beginning.
_Annabeth_
When Chiron had asked some of the counselors to meet in the pin pong table, she knew that nothing good could come out that.
And she was right, and she didn't like it. Chiron had told them of wizards and witches, and after that told them that they had a mission. They had to look after a British wizard boy, famous for surviving the killing curse when he was a baby. It was a favour to an old friend of Chiron and they couldn't refuse. To keep appearance they had to act as advisors in a deathly competition.
Now, she was here in a magical school, in another country and being in another quest, luckily this time without a prophecy. At least, she thought, the school had wards made impossible for monsters to attack them. And the architecture was impressive, the little that she had seen left her speechless. So maybe the mission wouldn't be so bad. But then, as every quest where demigods were involved things turned more difficult. The kid they had to look after, was entered in the competition.
The first time that she saw him, he didn't impress her. Maybe it was because with who he was: an extremely beautiful girl, more beautiful than the daughters of Aphrodite, an intimidating boy with heavy clothes and someone that she didn't expect to be here, a son of Apollo. Harry Potter, the boy-who-lived the survivor of the killing curse didn't appear to be anything but ordinary, there wasn't anything at first sight that made him extraordinary. But first sights sometimes were wrong, like this time. After presentations were made and just Cedric and the kid they had to protect were left in the room with them, he messed up his hair making visible a lightning-shaped scar in his forehead. It was a known fact, at least for those who read, or had been friends with a child of Zeus, that it was the mark of Zeus.
To make things more interesting he didn't appear to be amazed at the existence of demigods. Maybe Zeus had broken his pact, it wasn't like he hadn't broken before, or maybe the boy had done something impressive that had earned him the attention of the King of the Gods, which was unlike. Had Zeus have another child and kept him from knowing his heritage, his family? Was the wizarding world so safe that the boy didn't need Camp Half-blood protections? And, if he was a son of Zeus how will he react to having a sister? And how she was going to tell Thalia that she had a brother? Too many questions and no answers, she hated when she didn't have answers.
_Harry_
Harry knew that if he didn't reveal himself Athena's daughter wouldn't leave him alone. Thalia had told him that summer about her friends at Camp Half-blood, the shy and clumsy satyr Grover, the intelligent and curious Annabeth daughter of Athena and the loyal and brave Percy son of Poseidon. She had been exchanging some letter with them, mostly with Annabeth, without going into details, no magic, no Hogwarts, and not a word about him. He knew that her sister wasn't happy keeping secrets to her old friend but she still had done it. He had told her that it was alright if she told her friend, but she had argued that it could cause a disrupt if another son of the big three was known.
So there he was in a room full of demigods, he knew about them and they didn't know about him. It may be dangerous for him to be known as a son of Zeus, but he didn't want his sister in any trouble with her friends. He took a breath and confessed.
- I am Harry Potter, son of Zeus.
The room was quiet, all the present with different faces of astonishment. He just hoped that he had made the right decision and that the other demigods didn't decide to divulge his identity.
- it's okay Harry, we won't tell anybody if you don't want to -Cedric said
- It will make our quest simple, your godly powers will give you an advantage on the tournament. You will not only have whatever magic spell you know, we will have to know the extent of what you can do, of course, but we now have more options when looking for ways to pass the tasks. -Annabeth explained
- Annabeth, -Percy interrupted- we have time for that later, the headmaster said that they had classes and I want to see what wizards learn, Chiron said that we could go to their classes. Aren't you even a little curious?
- Ok, Kelphead, but we will continue this conversation later.
The other demigods get out of the room as fast as they could, just in case the daughter of Athena changed her opinion and they were forced to stay.
The rest of the morning passes without incidents, and he was able to tell Thalia about the other demigods being the secret tournament advisors. By lunch, everyone seemed to know who was the new people seated in the new table that had appeared in the Great Hall, with a brazier in the middle. He decided to sit with them, he was sure that if not Annabeth will chase him, until she knew every single power that he had. Thalia joined him, not just only to speak with her friends, but to keep Annabeth attention only on him. Neville ate with them too, he wanted to know about his siblings at Camp Half-Blood, and he was soon in a conversation about plants with his sister Katie. Cedric was on the other side of the table talking with his brother.
But, at dinner, they weren't the only Hogwarts students sitting on the Demigod table. Some others had decided that it was a good idea to sit there. They were demigods too, and after that lunch confirmation of the advisor's identities, they wanted to be with their godly family, some had never been at camp and wanted to meet them. Third-year Ravenclaw Luna Lovegood was a daughter of Athena and had been at camp. Fourth-year Slytherin Blase Zabini was a son of Ares had been on camp too. Fellow Gryffindor Quidditch teammate Angelina turned out to be a descendant of Zeus (great-granddaughter), she wasn't a half-blood so she hadn't been at camp but she knew about it. Ravenclaw second-year William Smith was a son of Hephaestus, his mother had told him before he started Hogwarts but had never been on camp, and was sad that none of his siblings could come. Slytherin six-year Duncan Schult was a son of Nemesis, after his brother had joined Kronos he hadn't gone back to camp, but wanted to go back the next summer to reconnect with his friends. And finally, seventh-year Hufflepuff Don't-call-me-by-my-name Tonks was a daughter of Aphrodite, she knew about the Gods but her adoptive mother had advised against she going to camp (Andromeda Tonks had blood adopted her, so she was her biological daughter too, and as such a member of the Black family, descendant of Hades)
