The ride in the car Ron was driving was extremely awkward. Hagrid, Hermione and Percy were squished into the back seat while Ron drove and Harry rode shot gun.
"So..."Percy says after moments of silence passed by. "I have a problem. I think it's gonna be a major problem while I'm schooling at this Hogwarts you're talking about."
"What is it?"Hermione asked, knowing she could maybe solve it with a spell or potion.
The teen fidgeted in his seat. "I have ADHD. And I'm Dyslexic."
"Ah, it's because of your Demigod senses isn't it?"Hermione hummed.
"Dyslexia helps you read anything written in Ancient Greek while having ADHD helps you in your battles because you're impulvise. It also helps you concentrate on an opponent and point out its weak points, right?"She confirmed.
Percy's mouth parted in awe. "How'd you know?"
Ron and Harry's chuckles could be heard from the front. "She's Hermione Granger. Of course she knows."
"Shut up, you two."She hissed before blushing furiously. "I actually have a few friends that are like you. I'm sure you won't know them."She dismissed quietly.
Percy nodded before looking out the window.
"So what's it like being a wizard?" "Demigod?"Hermione and Percy said at the same time.
Hermione's cheekbones turned pink. "You ask first."
He shook his head. "Ladies first."
She rolled her eyes. "What is it like? There at Camp Half-Blood? Having a God or Goddess as a parent?"
Percy thought for a moment. "Dangerous. If people, especially those horrid monsters, found you, boy you should kiss your ass goodbye."
Hermione laughed quietly.
"I'd say the same to being a witch or wizard. If you did magic in front Muggles, which we call non-magic folks, you can rot your arse in a cell at Azkaban. Also if you're a minor like below the age of 17, then you'll get your wand snapped and get expelled from school."
He smirked as Ron and Harry gasped dramatically. "Percy, you made Hermione swear!"
"Oh, shut up."She chucked a pillow at them. Where she got it? Percy had no idea. But hey, it's magic.
"Do you guys have a bloodline thing as well?"Percy asked.
Hermione nodded swiftly. "There's the Purebloods. Those are the arrogant, rich and proud gits who look down on the under-privileged. They think they're the best of the best."
Maybe it was the way Hermione was saying it, but Percy could feel the hatred to Purebloods overcoming him. Even if he was the mightiest of them all. He didn't care.
"Hey!"Ron yelled. "Mind you, I can hear everything you're saying right now."
"Except for a few, of course."She let out a sheepish smile.
"Then there's the Half-Bloods. Harry's one. Half-Bloods are alright. They're kind and brave. Always ready to stand up for one another. Most Half-Bloods end up in Gryffindor while most Purebloods end up in Slytherin."
"I definitely do not want to end up in Slytherin, whatever that is. It sounds like a sexual innuendo."The 16-year-old snickered.
"Percy!"Hermione gasped. "Some of us are underaged!"
He chuckled. "Like who?"
"Ron, for example. He may look the oldest, but trust me. His mind is a five-year-old."
"I'm still here!"Ron yelled once more which caused Harry to smack him upside the head.
Poseidon's son raised his eyebrows at the two in front before turning back to bright witch.
He gestures with his hands. "You can continue."
Hermione nodded. "Right."
"Then there's Muggle-borns,"Hermione let out a heavy sigh.
"I'm one of them. Muggle-borns come from non-magic families but somehow has magic flowing in their bloodstream. Purebloods hate us. They think we're filthy because of our origin."
Percy nudged her shoulders with his. "Come on, don't be down. Ron's a Pureblood. I'm a Pureblood, mightiest one I tell you,"He winked which caused Hermione to laugh.
"Don't worry, Hermione. You seem really smart. I wouldn't be surprised if you turned up one day in Camp Half-Blood claiming that you're the Daughter of Athena."Percy smirked.
"Thanks, Percy. You're really nice."
"You know, you're so unlike my brother, Percy,"Ron said out of the blue. "His name's Percy as well. A huge git. Loves to boast about his achievements."
Percy grinned in mischief. "I'd love to meet him one day."
Harry, Ron, Hermione and Hagrid all wondered whether it was sarcasm.
