Demigod Teachers
Hogwarts, Scotland
The Mood in Hogwarts following the announcement of Fudge's death was a sombre one, Everyone spoke in hushed whispers and barely anyone cracked a smile. Even Peeves had laid off his typical pranks and instead tried to cheer up the students with non-practical jokes, but nothing could lift the Students of Hogwarts mood.
Professor Jakcson let out a sigh as his 6th year class slowly left the classroom, he knew they weren't sad about Fudge. The Former Minister of Magic wasn't that well liked to begin with. No, the sombre mood was one of the dark loomings of war. A feeling that Percy knew all too well.
Since the news broke, he had tried to keep his classes light and ubeat, but nothing seemed to work. The Worry had broken the students spirits. Frowning, Percy pulled out Akoumolous and swung it in front of him for a few minutes before resting the blades in his hand. Staring right into the sword, he saw his own reflection and Whispered "Chiron, what would you do."
Right now he wished he could talk to his mentor, and find out how he managed to keep all of them going before the second Titan War, but his Mentor was preparing the current generation of demigods at camp Jupiter for this war.
The next person he would go to for assistance cheering people up would surprisingly be Nico but unfortunately, Nico, hazel and Severus were all searching for Voldemort's Horcruxes so that we could end this once and for all. So they were all out of the picture. Then it suddenly hit him, on who he needed to help cheer everyone up "Rachel"
New York, USA
Rachel Dare, Daughter of one of the 1%, prep School drop out, Artist, Forever Single, Best friend of Apollo, and oh did she forget to Mention that she was the current Oracle of Delphi? Yeah that oracle, the one that prophesied the end of the world on Two occasions. She was also the one who half blinded the Titan Lord the minute he was resurrected with a plastic pink hairbrush she kept in her bag.
And….
She was stuck in a bloody queue at the airport waiting for a flight to the United Kingdoms of England (Wales) and Scotland or as most people liked to call it the UK, it had been a few years since she had travelled outside of North America just due to her art not taking her there.
But the Prime Minister of the UK had seen her artwork and decided he wanted to display her art at the National gallery in London, so here she was. Honestly she was surprised that she was even allowed back in the country after the last time where the Oracle decided to announce to a bunch of people in Scotland that the country would win its next Independence vote. She had been thrown out after that….
They must have forgotten…or at least she hoped they had otherwise that would be seriously awkward.
She was just waiting to actually get on the plane thankfully. She thinks she might have gone crazy…or crazier than normal if she had to wait. She was doing a small sketch of one of her visions on the Tablet that she had gotten for her birthday from Percy and Annbeth last Christmas.
Just as she was about to start the final layer, a message from none other than Percy Jackson popped up on screen.
Hey Rachel, wanna come to a magic school and cheer people up with your wacky art?
Quickly saving her Work, she responded
Would love to but I'm about to get on a flight for work.
It took a few minutes for him to respond
Aw man that ksuc, Where ya heading
The UK
Oh man, that awesome, that's where I am right now!
You shadow travelled to my house already didn't you.
Maybe…
Of course you did, well if you're "in London" right now, maybe we can meet up. I'm meant to be there for about a month, so what about it?
That sounds Amazing. See ya then.
She tucked her tablet away in her rucksack and got into the plane. Thank god Charlie was picking her up, she had no idea where she was meant to go when she got there.
The Ministry of Magic, UK
"Mrs Jackson, we have been here for 13 hours! Why Are we still doing this?!" Amelia groaned from her place on the floor, papers covered all over the floor.
Annabeth was grinning as her computer slowly ditaglised all the papers that she needed for Sirius' case at the weekend "I thought the head of DMLE would enjoy paperwork more?"
Amelia glared at Annabeth before handing over the next stack of papers to be digitalised "I was a field agent, I never enjoyed paperwork!"
Annabeth stared at her curiously "Then why did you take the job?" Amelia slid further down onto the ground "Because I didn't want somebody worse to get the job, at least I could bring some or, er to this place."
Annabeth nodded before standing up and stretching, she reached a hand out to Aemlia and said "Come on, let's go and get some coffee, and food. We need a bit of a break."
The two of them walked out of Amelia's office, while Amelia was locking the office door, Annabeth was deep in thought. She was almost finished her two main jobs that Lady Hecate had set out for her originally, after this trial all she would have to do is help Percy teach, which would be good seeing how he apparently was going on a journey to power up Akoumolus and make it even more powerful, she had asked him why but she still didn't understand. But she trusted him.
The Two of them were just about to start heading down towards the cafe when a ginger haired boy that Annabeth was 99% sure was one of the Weasley came to a screeching halt in front of them. "Lady Bones, Mrs Jackson thank god I caught you. The Pharaoh and Minister Kingsley require you in Minister Kingsley's office.
Amelia looked between Annabeth, and Percy Weasley worried before saying "Thank you very much Percival, if you don't have any more work to do right now. Take a 5 minute break."
The man sighed in relief before falling to the ground. Annabeth chuckled under her breath at that and started a light conversation with Amelia. They had been in that room for hours after all. There wasn't that much to still talk about.
When they arrived in the Minister of Magic office. They found Cater and Kingsley looking serious as they studied some paper. Annabeth, closing the door slowly, asked gently, "Carter, why did you call us here?"
Carter looked up, bags under his eyes- He hadn't slept since Zia was injured- And made his way over to Annabeth, hugging her "We got a letter through from Severus. He Received a message from the Dark Lord."
Annebth breath hitched "What is it?" Minister of Magic Kingsley looked up "They are planning a break out This sunday night. We need to enact your plan on Saturday."
Annebth turned to Aemlia and said "Think you can get enough trustworthy Aurors for a job this important in time?"
Amelia smirked, "Give me a day."
The Next Day- Heathrow Airport- London
Rachel stepped off the plane, stretching her body. By the gods that was a long flight. She had forgotten why she hated flying so much. Next time she was getting Nico to shadow travelling her, or she was pulling in a favour from Apollo.
Getting out of the customs part of the airport, she finally sees the mop of long red hair that she had been hoping to see the entire trip "Charlie!"
She got closer and saw Charlie Weasley, her Second Cousin twice removed standing there with his arms wide open "Rach! Oh my god look at how tall you are! Gid what's it been, 7 Years since we last saw?!"
Rachel grinned at her younger cousin "Something like that, Tell me how have you been, and why's your hair so long?!" He chuckled, "I've been great; Miss famous artist. As for my hair, I've been so busy with work recently, I haven't had a chance to cut it.
Grabbing Rachels rucksack from her, he almost fell to the ground and said "What the hell do you have in this thing?!" She laughed, "just everything I need for the next month."
He stared at her astonished, "How the hell did you fit all of that in one bag?!" She took the bag back from him and said "I know some amazing Packers. Anyway, are we going to get moving?"
He nodded and made a small sign with his hand that she translated to mean follow him. "Oh I have some amazing news for you Rach!"
She twisted her head "Wellt don't keep me in suspense, what is it!" He smirked "Oh I don't know maybe my mum is finally allowing you to come around and find out the whole truth about our family"
"Wait Really?!"
"Yup"
Hogwarts- Gryffindor Common Room
"Hey Guys, I just got a letter from my Mum!" Ron came into the Gryffindor Common room, holding a letter in his fingers.
Hermione was resting against Neville on the couch who had fallen asleep, reading a book as she did so, turning her head to face Ron. She said "Well what does it say?" Ron was about to begin when Tracey, who had been sitting on Harry's lap while they worked on potions homework said "Actually before you start, I should call it a night, see you all tomorrow."
As soon as she left, Harry sat up more, his hair falling in front of his eyes, forcing him to move it behind him "Damn I need a haircut, So What does it say?!"
"Dear Ronald,
I hope you are keeping well and eating enough, I'm writing to let you know a couple updates. The Major Azkabang operation has been moved forwards, I can not give you any more details at this time other than it's a massive operation.
In other news Charlie has returned home from Romania for a week weeks….as Your cousin Rachel Dare from the States is visiting! She has a muggle art show gallery over the next month so Charlie is letting her stay at his London Flat with him while he is here. I have also made the decision that we are finally going to tell her about our family and the magical world. She's 28 and she deserves to know.
Stay out of trouble dear
Mum"
Harry raised his eyebrows "So they are moving them sooner….they must have got words that the DE's plans had changed" Hermione nodded "i think you're right Harry, it would explain why they are being so hushed about it too. Also Ron, you have a Muggle Cousin?"
Ron nodded "Yeah, Rachel, she's like my second cousin twice removed or something. She's awesome but I haven't seen her in like 7 years. Mum didn't want to get her jealous and upset that she couldn't learn magic like the rest of the family and it was becoming harder and harder to keep it a secret as more of us came to Hogwarts."
Harry smiled "So What's she like?", ROn grinned "Oh so Wacky, but so caring. And she's so smart and creative. Honestly I think both of you would get on with her. She should still be here for Christmas so you can meet her then."
Harry put his thumbs up at his red headed friend "I would love that, Although don't forget I'm staying at Tracey's for the second half of the Holidays."
Ron nodded "Don't worry I haven't forgotten. But hey that still leaves you a week to get to know her."
