Saving Percy Jackson

Chapter 9

We finally arrived at King Cross station.

We had to pause continuous amounts of times for Percy to keep up. "Excuse me, but we would like to buy a ticket to anywhere still in London." Annabeth told the guard.

"Ok, go to platform 10," he told us.

On the way there, Percy fell. "Percy!" Annabeth panicked.

He was nowhere in sight. We felt the two walls, you never know but they could be monsters in disguise. My hand went trough the wall that I was feeling, strange. "Annabeth, over here" I told her.

We put our hands in it. We could both tell that it is possible that Percy could have fallen through there. I braced myself, I couldn't believe what I was about to do. I stepped through the wall. Annabeth followed me. We saw Percy and there was a train there..... for free. We thought the train would go anywhere in Britain. 

We hopped on and sat inside a train compartment. Percy closed the door behind us. There were two rows of seats. Me and Annabeth sat on one side while Percy laid down on the other. This cart full of candy waked up to us. "Would you like to buy anything?" the lady asked.

I got up and examined the cart. It was full of candy none of us had heard about. The closest thing to a candy I knew of was "Beanie Botts Every Flavour Beans" which must resemble jellybeans. "We will take three of Beanie Botts every flavour jellybeans," I said.

We paid her the rest of the money we had on us, in one shop in London we had exchanged it for Britain money. The first one I picked out of the bag was green. I popped it in my mouth, it was so disgusting. I hoped for a good flavoured to be next. The next one was a blue one. I shoved in my mouth and that one was bad too. "THESE ARE SO BAD!" I exclaimed.

I ran towards the bathroom. I rinsed off my mouth. "You're not from around here, are you the new defense against the dark arts teacher?"  this girl asked me.

"Um no, is this train going to a school?' I asked.

"Yes, Hogwarts to be exact, if you need any help just ask me, my name is Hermione Granger," she told me.

"See you later, Hermione" I said before exiting the bathroom.

"Guys the trains taking us to a school," I told Annabeth and Percy.

They were shocked. Just then we arrived at the school. "I think we should explore this school, after all  it's the one area we haven't explored," Annabeth told us. We got off the train into the mob of kids.
