Percy Jackson And The Philosopher's Stone

10 - Spot?

After dinner, Percy headed down to Snapes office and the hall errupted with aplauce as he left and he couldn't help the small smile that appeared on his face, loudest being from the twins. Percy walked into Snapes office with his head held high, showing no regret, and stood behind Snapes desk while the man snarled.

"50 points from Slytherin, and you have detention, every other night up until the Christmas holidays. If you miss one detention then you will have detention every day for the rest of the year, and if you miss more than one detention it will add on to the second year assuming you do not get expelled. Do I make myself absolutly clear Jackson?" Snape said every word slowly, quietly and clearly, anger very evident in his entire body.

"Yes sir." Percy replied, doing his best to not smile.

"Then get out of my sight. Your detention will start tomorrow and you will have a letter to say when, where and with who."

Percy nodded once and left the office heading to his common room where he knew the majority of his house would not be happy with what went down with Snape, and with the prank in the hall, but he didn't care, and agaiin he walked in with his head held high.

"Oi, half-blood! You just cost us 50 points!" A fourth year boy yelled slamming Percy into the wall and most of the house gathered around.

"Let me go." Percy said, his voice and face void of emtion, but he was burning on the inside. Yes he was a half-blood, so was the the majority of the house, and he was proud to be a half-blood, in both ways, godly and magically. He dispised people who segregated the magical due to the blood status, it was wrong, morally and ethically.

"Why should I? You should be banned from Slytherin! Can't believe Snape let a blood traitor like you stay in this house!" The fourth year laughed.

Percy punched the boy in the nose getting dropped back down to the ground, and the boy whipped out his wand and shot a curse at Percy who rolled under it and tackled the fourth year to the ground, knocking the wand out of his hand and punched two more times in the face, before the fourth year kicked him off and kicked Percy in the face, who rolled and and got back up, but didn't go after the fourth year, but grabbed the fourth years wand, which was laying on the ground.

"You want this back, I supose you stop, appologise to the other half-bloods in the room, or I break it. Go on." Percy ordered, holding the wand between two hands.

Everyone stared, heads going back and forth between the two wondering who would make the first move, when the fourth year just grit his teeth, Percy bent the wand enough that it creaked and the boy jumped and stuck his hand out as if that would stop Percy.

"Okay! Okay! I'm sorry that I used Half-blood as a slur. I won't do it again." They boy cried and Percy gave a small smile and tossed him his wand.

"Now, anyone else got something they want to say?" Percy asked looking around all the faces, everyones hair matching and no one said anything. "Good."

Percy went up to his dorm and changed into his pyjamas, before writing a letter to both Remus and Nico about his day, leaving out the fight at the end to the one that was for his uncle, then he retired for bed.

The next few days went normally, and everyother day, Percy would have detention with different teachers doing different things and Harry told Percy about what he and his friends had found in the forbidden corridor on the third floor. 

Percy stared at Harry in shock. Harry had described Cerberus, but Percy thought that there was only one in existance and that he lived in the underworld gaurding the gates of hell. However Percy believed that Harry was telling the truth and Percy warnned his cousin not to go back there unless he had a rubber ball to distract it with, and Harry thought Percy was joking.

Percy however was not joking and the next night after his detention, he went up the the forbidden corridor to examine the dog and was relieved to find out he was a lot smaller than Cerberus and noticed that this version was also gaurding something, and he went back to his dorm and decided that he would find out why it was there another time.

A/N Hey guys, got another update, I know, they are becoming more frequent, but I got a new laptop which makes this easier and it also helps me put of doing my homework and going to sleep.

So I got this rash on my neck and I have no idea what it is from. Started of as a bug bite, then three days later I have a rash, so I'm calling the doctors up in the morning when I get ready for college and hopefully they'll be able to do something about it. I don't think it is contageous as it hasn't spread or got bigger, so that is hopefully a good sign.

Any way, I'll see you folks next time.
