Demigod Teachers
Daphne's P.O.V
'Are you sure you have everything you need Trace?' she asked her friend who was preparing for her date with the Gryffindor, Harry Potter. Tracey was sorting her hair in the mirror, in the room they shared and Daphne could tell how worked up Tracey was about the date, Tracey didn't want to admit it but she had been crushing on Harry since their 3rd year and it had only gotten worse since they had actually started talking thanks to Professor Jackson, her friends finally replied 'I have a SIlver dagger tucked into my boot, My Shield is is on my wrist as is my new sword.' Daphne nodded glad that her best friend was taking precaution against the monsters that lurked around Hogwarts. She still remembered her 3rd year where they had to fight a giant snake off when they went to Hogsmeade.
Her friend then asked her 'So what are you going today Daphne? Cause me and Harry are on our date, Draco is meeting with Katie You will be all alone.' Daphne smiled, grabbing a sweet for her throat as she did so 'I promised to help Hermione and Neville with some supplies.' Tracey nodded 'Well at least you won't be alone, and hey you get to spend some time with Neville. Anyway I heard that Professor Perseus and Annabeth were going to be in town today, just to keep everyone safe.' Oh that was sort of a surprise, she thought to herself. She fully expected for the Two Jacksons to leave the school for the day as they did most weekends. There was a loud knock on the door as Pansy Parkison yelled through 'Greengrass, WHat taking you and the Half-Blood so long!' Tracey looked at her 'She's really reverted back to just calling me a half-blood again hasn't she' She shrugged her shoulders and told her friend 'it's seems so, but she doesn't matter. BUZZ OFF PARKISON' yelling the final bit back at the slytherin girl on the other side of the door.
On the other side there was a huff and they heard her say 'My mother will Hear about this!' oh boy they were sure she would. Waiting for a few minutes to give Pansy a chance to walk away. The two of them then quickly left their room, double checking that they had their weapons as they did so. Reaching the main part of the common room they found Draco waiting in formal/casual clothes who said 'Took you girls long enough...but looking Good Tacey!' Tracey bowed and said 'I tried...for once. Not looking half bad yourself Draco.' Draco gave a small smile and said 'Eh Katie isn't into the whole formal dress stuff.' Then he dropped down to a whisper 'After today our standing in SLytherin House will change forever. Are you sure about this Tracey.' Tracey nodded and I replied 'They are all starting to treat us like stercore anyway, what's going to change.' Draco sighed 'you're right….right let's not leave our dates waiting any longer Tracey!' Tracey and Draco practically dragged her out of the common room as she gave an icey cold glare to anyone who dared to try and ask them what was going on, she wasn't going to let this day be ruined for her best friends.
The walk down to the clocktower where Tracey was meeting with Daphne was a quiet one as most people were waiting until after Lunch to head out to Hogsmeade or they had left a couple of hours earlier to get their shopping out of the way as early as possible. When they reached the clocktower they found Harry pacing nervously, wearing as formal muggles clothes as he owned….so a pair of jeans and a Polo Shirt, but it did surprisingly suit him. Draco decided to leave them here as he went off to meet up with her sister in Hogsmeade. She just about overheard HArry say 'Tracey, you look beautiful' and she could see the bright blush on her friend's face as she told Harry he looked Handsome, the two of them heading towards Hogsmeade, a blushing mess. Daphne sat down at the bench under the clock and waited for Hermione and Neville to come down. As she waited Ronald Weasley passed her with Hannah Abbot, surprisingly, the red head just said 'Greengrass' giving her a curt nod before continuing on their walk down to Hogsmeade. She hoped the other two would arrive soon.
Harry's P.O.V
He walked down the dirt path towards Hogsmeade with his hand holding onto Tracey's, they hadn't said much since they had left the school but even just walking down in silence was surprisingly nice. Behind him he could hear Ron laugh and he was sort of surprised that Hannah's relationship with Ron had progressed so quickly but then he remembered that he was literally on a date with Tracey after knowing her for like a month so he really couldn't say anything about it.
Tracey asked in a whisper 'So where do you want to grab a bite to eat.' Harry bit his cheek, Hermione had told him the tea room was the best place for romantic couples however he didn't think the tea room matched Tracey and was probably not the best place to go for a first date in the first place, 'Well it's going to be quite quiet when we get there...how do you feel about Madam Rosmerta's' Tracey smiled which reassured him. Okay he had done something right there, a couple of seconds later she said 'That sounds perfect...So Harry I do need to ask, why do you and Professor Snape hate each other so much?' Oh boy this was going to be a difficult one he thought, he started to tell her everything he knew about his and Snape's rivalry. At the end of it Tracey said 'wow so he just hates you because you look like your dad? That freaking sucks. Harry chuckled 'Yeah as far as I can tell, and I hate him back because he targets me and everyone else in my house, he's probably the most Biased out of all the teachers when it comes to the Houses.' She nodded 'Now that much is obvious, if it wasn't for your BS last minute house point gains, Slytherin would have won the house cup every year Thanks to Professor Snape.' Harry nudged his shoulder into her arm 'Oi, Those BS Points are for life threatening situations.' Her warm laugh filled the path towards the town making Harry smile gently.
They arrived at the town within a few minutes and they noticed how QUiet the town seemed. It hadn't even been that quiet when the Dementors were lurking around in their third year, Harry thought. He repositioned his hand so he was holding Tracey's tighter as they made their way over to Madam Rosmerta's. As they neared the warm pup, they ran into Professor Jackson who stood in the town, a metal sword sheathed in its case that was wrapped around his torso, being held against his back. A Shield was resting on his Left arm, Harry could see the wrappings pulled tightly against his look-a-likes arm. He was sipping a hot Butterbeer as his eyes darted around the town, looking out for trouble. His eyes landed on them and Harry noticed Tracey smile and say 'Morning Professor.' The Older Man raised his large glass mug and said 'Morning Harry, Tracey. Enjoying your day so far?' Harry nodded telling the man 'Yes we are, Thank you for asking Professor. Can I ask what you're doing with all those weapons?' Professor Jackson chuckled 'Just making sure everyone stays safe today, You will see Mrs Jackson and my Cousin Thalia and Nico walking around town today with their weapons out, so don't be too concerned. SO don't worry about jumping into action Miss Davies.' WHy was he saying that to Tracey? He was the one that always jumped into danger. He shrugged his mental shoulders as Professor Jackson then said 'Now go on and enjoy your day.'
Tracey dragged him into Madam ROsmerade's and they found a small little corner booth, with Tracey collapsing into the chair shaking slightly 'I didn't realise How cold it was outside until just now' Taking off his own coat he asked his date 'DO you want my coat?' she shook her head. 'Thanks for the offer but I'll be fine.' Two Menus appeared in front of them and he said 'Order whatever you want Tracey, the meal's on me' she smiled and started to read through the list trying to decide what she wanted to eat. Harry always picked the same thing whenever he came to Hogsmeade because he knew he liked it and it was nice and affordable...not that he really needed to worry about that but it was always good to think about.
Tracey smiled and put down her Menu having decided what she wanted and asked 'Are you not going to have anything?' asking him concerned, he gave her a reassuring smile and replied 'I already know what I'm having.' She nodded as Madam Rosmerta came to the table and asked 'What can I get for the new couple?' Harry felt his face go bright red and across the table he saw a similar reaction with Tracey as he managed to stutter out 'My….Nor….normal...please Madam Rosmerta.' The Woman nodded scribbling it down before turning to face Tracey who gave her order with a bit more confidence than he had.
The Two of them talked about trivial things the entire time as they enjoyed their meal, learning more about each other under the warm oak building. Harry leant that Tracey had spent most of her time since she was 8 in America along with Daphne Greengrass. The Two of them had learnt self defense with weapons at the camp Jupiter place he had seen during their shared dream and he finally decided to ask 'So what's this dreamscape place that you all keep on talking about, I know we both dreamt there one time so I know it exists.' Tracey went quiet scrunching her face up as if she was trying to figure out what to say when she said 'It's basically the realm where everyone goes to when they fall asleep, if you have a strong enough will and you know it exists it's possible to maneuver around in it and use it learn valuable information, but if you die in their as yourself, you die in real life. His eyes widened and he was about to reply when there was a sudden KRAKRAKRA-BOOOOOOOM! From outside followed by Professor Jackson yelling 'Everyone stay inside!' What was Going on!
Percy's P.O.V
A lightning Bolt shot towards him at lightning speeds from somewhere out of town, he raised his SHield and the Lightning collided against it with a KRAKRAKRA-BOOOOOOOM! Pushing him right back against the door of Madam Rosmerta's Bar, this was why he was here, he feared that the Monsters would try and attack with som many demigods in one place, even without him and his family here their was still Miss Davies, Mr Malfoy, Miss Greengrass, Miss/Mr Longrow. There was a loud roar in the distance that he recognised his blood started to boil, so the Pit had sent him after him. Finding his voice he yelled into the building 'Everyone stay inside!' as he pulled Akumoulous from it's brand new sheath on his back. From within his trusty blade he could feel Zoé's Spirit humming, telling him to prepare for the worst.'
Thalia and Nico ran towards him asking in Unison 'What the hell was that!' He pointed his sword towards the now approaching army of Monsters and Dark Wizards, the two of them understanding in an instant what he was trying to tell them. Nico twisted his Skull Ring making his Stygian Steel Sword appear in his hands, before he Thrust his free hand up summoning an army of Skeletons 'Army of the Dead, rising and defending this town from the evil approaching.' The Skeleton soldiers all held weapons in their hands including claymores as they made their way into a defensive position. Thalia pulled her necklace hard and her Bow appeared in her hands, her quiver was already on her back and the first arrow magically appeared in the bow itself, ready for her to start firing. He could tell through his bond with Annabeth that she was prepared to fight the army of Monsters approaching from her side, her dagger in hand.
The army of Monsters arrived at the edges of town all waiting for a signal, From further Back in the Army there was a Monstrous Roar of 'Attack!' The army charged forwards and he glanced at Thalia saying 'It's time to bring the Thunder.' BEfore charging forwards to meet the army head on, the moment he reached the first monster, a Hellhound he believed, he had already swung his sword, his Trusty blade cutting through the monster like butter. The CYclops next to him tried to batter him into the ground with his massive club but PErcy raised his shield created by his brother and parrayed the attack using the ground beneath his feet for support, knocking the one eyed monster off its feet, crushing a lesser Banshee before Percy jabbed the monster through the eye with a single sharp thrust turning the monster to gold dust.'
Next to him Nico was fighting like a Monster, not giving a single monster time to react as he sliced through them, the darkness from the growing thunderstorm allowing the son of Hades to move quicker. Suddenly there was a Kra-Boom As the Thunderstorm arrived blocking out the sun entirely, the wind picked up and rain started to pour down from Olympus, Loud booms of Thunder could be heard from within the dark clouds and Lightning bolts started to strike down, all avoiding the buildings thanks to Thalia's control. Now that the Thunderstorm had started she pulled out her dagger and swiped at the monster coming her way.
They would not let Hogsmeade fall today. From one building young Draco Malfoy stuck his head out nervously asking 'Professor Jackson what's going….om.' He snapped his head towards him, blocking a claw from a Harpie with his shield and yelled 'Mr Malfoy Get inside now!' not leaving any room for the 15 year old to argue, he would not let any of the children under his care die, not under his watch. FInding a small gap within the sea of Monsters around him, HE raised his Sword up, the metal blade acting like a Magnet for the lightning and a bolt of lightning crashed down onto Akumolous, with Zoé spirit taking a blunt of the damage and the rain healing the rest. Turning to face his enemies, he licked his lips before sirking, 'You're done for now.' Lightning ran through his blade and he slashed through them even easier than before.
He continued to fight until he came across a Dark Wizard with a "skull" mask on, a wand raised at him 'You will go no further muggle!' Before casting the killing curse at him, Percy raised his sword before striking downwards, prepared to cut the spell in half, but at the same time as the spell was cut in half, a circular ring of lightning shot out towards the Wizard who had to dodge out of the way of the ring of lightning, The Sharp RINg taking off the man's arm with ease, casurating it too with the heat of the electricity. THe man looked at him, his mask falling off revealing the face of Cygnus Greengrass, he should kill him now for the abuse he knew had had put Daphne Greengrass through, but right now all he could hear from the man was a 'What are you?!' Percy glared at him 'A Demon' before kicking him down, the force of the kick knocking the abusive man out.
It was only a couple of seconds later until he hear another growl from the leader of the Monster who said 'The Titan Killer with his little Goddess Sword, how I've longed to finally kill you' Percy turned to face the leader of the monsters, a giant Half man, Half Bull who he knew all too well, covered in armour from head to toe and a giant Double headed battle axe resting on his shoulder, Percy said calmly to the MInotaur 'Working for the Piy now, meathead! Guess you've got an upgrade now that you can speak.' STeam came out of the Bull's head as he said 'You will find your little goddess sword is unable to break my armour, little hero. Your end is here!' Before charging at him with battle Axe ready to come down. Was he referring to Akumolous when he said Goddess Sword? Sure it had been made by Zoé but she was the daughter of a Titan, not a Goddess. Just as the Beast arrived at him, he swung the mighty axe down forcing Percy to block with his shield, just barely managing to stop his neck from being beheaded. The Axe stuck into his Shield, with the Bull-Man pushing more weight into his attack making the shield creak and groan as the metal started to be torn apart. He Swung Riptide at the Armour, but the blade just clanged against, the vibrations in the balde almost forcing Percy to drop it. What was this Armour?!
The SHield started to crack more before Minotaur released one hand from the ace to backhand Percy sending him flying backwards crashing into Nico, who was knocked to the ground with him, Groaning he rolled onto his stomach and off Nico, realising his shield had been torn from his arm. Nico stood up slowly and said 'Perce, are you okay?' He nodded 'Just not as young as I used to be' Annabeth knocked into him from behind having made her way around the town to help them 'None of us are sweetie.' before she killed another monster.
The Minotaur prepared to charge again and Annabeth said 'Percy! When this fight's over, I've got something to tell you!' His eyes widened and he said 'What is it?!' Before realising she said after the battle.. The Two of them dodged out of the way of the Minotaur with the Beats axe almost colliding with Annabeth. Percy stood up and leapt forwards towards the beast, his sword held in two hands. As he leapt he caught a bolt of lightning and struck it into a crook of the armour electrocuting the two of them. Percy felt his head be picked up by the Minotaur who roared in his face before throwing him to the ground, picking up it's axe from the ground where he had dropped and prepared to bring it down on Percy when a Lightning bolt charged Dagger shot into and out of the Minoaturs neck making it fall to the ground barley getting a 'Retreat!' out, the ground dissolving beneath the remaining monsters, sending them back to the pit. All the WIzards that had been with them, unconscious or dead.
Nico and Thalia helped him to his feet and he looked at Annabeth who had a scratch on her cheek, using the water pouring down on him, he healed her using his powers before asking 'So what did you want to tell me Wise Girl.' The Weather started to clear up around them and the students slowly started to creep out of the shops and restaurants they had been in. Annbeth smiled at him and said 'I'm…'
Will's P.O.V
'Sure I've worked out what I need to do to kill the Horcrux without killing Mr Potter.' The young man said to his fellow doctor and Egyptian Magicians including the Egytian God Anubis. The others around the room looked around and Anubis asked 'What do you suggest William.' Will created a light projection using the sun and said 'Using ANubis we transfer the Horcrux to another item while someone close to Harry keeps his soul connected to his actual body.' Carter Kane sighed 'It's Risky' but Anubis butted in 'But it could work William, I'm willing to try if you are.' Will nodded at the "teenage" God 'LEt's start the preparations for next week then. I will send word to Percy.'
A/N I've been playing a lot of SKyward Sword HD this past week so a lot of references managed to make their way into their story.
Anyway, what will happen next time?! What was Annbeth going to say, Will the young Demigods challenge the older demigods as to why they didn't help, what's going on with Katie moving to Hogwarts? FInd out next time on Demigod Teachers.
