I would like to dedicate this chapter to theanalystgirl, who was second to vote for one of my chapters (the first person was SammyValdezTheBoss, who already got a dedication).
Hecate's POV

Those young demigods who stayed loyal to the Olympians are fools. Kronos will win this war and there is nothing they can do about it, so why pick the losing side. For too long, so-called 'minor' gods like myself have been overlooked. My poor children are left in the overcrowded Hermes cabin unclaimed due to the lack of a Hecate cabin. I could bring them all to their knees, after all I control the mist and could reveal their existence to the mortals or make them see things that would drive them mad. I could win this war, yet my master Kronos holds me back. He has instructed me to send confusion into their ranks, maybe even a distraction. Luckily I have the perfect plan. Nico Di Angelo is in a vulnerable state, controlled by the ghost of Minos, who never leaves his side. I see his potential, he could become very powerful, whether he's an ally or an enemy. I could either convince him to join us, kill him... Or I could send him somewhere where he won't be a problem. You see I have a little pet world I have kept hidden from the 'major' gods for centuries: a world of magics. I had been bored of my limited domain and wanted to expand, but the Olympians wouldn't let me, so I secretly blessed a group of mortals with magic. This magic can be inherited, or it can skip generations. Over the years, a lot of prejudice has arisen between the inbred 'purebloods' who have 2 magical parents, the half-bloods who have 1 magical parent and 1 muggle (non magic) parent, and the muggle-borns who have 2 muggle parents. The purebloods believe they are superior and should keep muggle borns out of the picture, and I must say I find it rather amusing. In recent years however, a dark force has been rising amongst them, a mortal who has cheated death: Voldemort. That monster has tied his soul to the mortal realm with dark magic, he has 7 different horcruxes anchoring him to this earth and there is nothing I can do. By sending Nico to the wizarding world, I could kill two birds with one stone - Nico would no longer be any threat and the chosen one will have more chance with him by his side. But what to do about the demigods, if they go looking for him, they will surely ruin everything. That's when a thought struck me. I could create a Mistform version of Nico to keep exploring the Labyrinth with Minos, a Mistform that Nico could control, but only in Morpheus' realm. When in Morpheus' realm his actions can be monitored closely, so one wrong move and I renounce his control of it. Yes, that would work, and while Mistform Nico is with Minos, real Nico will be boarding the Hogwarts Express as the start of a new life. Kronos will be pleased, I must tell him at once and put my plan into action.

Hello again! Finally, I've added the Harry Potter universe into the story. For anyone who doesn't know what a Mistform is, it is a creature of sorts (not really alive though) created out of the mist, and takes the form of a person, real or not. They are mentioned in 'The Son of Magic' which you can find in 'Demigod Diaries by Rick Riordan'. Just a quick recap:

This is before the Battle of Manhattan, it is after Bianca's death. Nico is 11, Harry is 11, Hecate is on Kronos' side (like in the books pre Battle of Manhattan). Hecate is going to send Nico to the wizarding world, Nico is not aware of this.

Oh and, before I forget, go and check out JaguarAJG on fanfiction.net :) Whether you like Harry Potter, Percy Jackson or a bit of both, he's got something for you. Why not read his new fanfiction 'Rebellious Insanity' which follows Fred and George's attempts to rid Hogwarts of Umbridge by driving her insane? Just search JaguarAJG and look for the unique pink toad cover.
