Percy Jackson in the Wizarding World The: Sorcerer's Lightning Bolt

Chapter 3 - Toads and Dreams

I wish I could be at the beach rn and not stressing about school

Once Percy's stomach was full to the max he finally looked up. He was sitting on a long table to his left was Harry Potter and on his right Layla sat looking at him with wide eyes. Not just her eyes but everyone's eyes were looking at him and his empty plate.

"What I was hungry," Percy said in an innocent voice as the table laughed at him. Percy didn't care he was laughing too.

"Are you a vacuum?" Layla said

"Are you from America?" asked a red haired boy on the left of Harry. He had a P badge on his chest.

Before Percy could answer Professor McGonagall clicked her goblet three times.

"Attention Attention" as the hall went silent "Please welcome our Headmaster Albus Dumbledore," Professor McGonagall said in her teacher's voice.

Professor McGonagall sat back down and Albus Dumbledore got up. Percy could see his beard reach his knees.

"Welcome to a new year at Hogwarts," said Dumbledore "I would first like to introduce the new student this year from America joining us." The hall broke into chatter Dumbledore waved his hand and brought everyone's attention back.

"Yes yes I know exciting," said Dumbledore "Could our student please stand up?"

Percy gulped, he then looked around those close to him were staring at him. Layla gave him a node. Percy stood up slowly he was put in the center of everyone's attention and did not like it at the moment. Percy looked at Dumbledore he had a twinkle in his eyes like he knew everything. Dumbledore even winked at him. Percy wondered if Dumbledore knew why he was here and who Percy is. He would have to ask Dumbledore about it in private later.

"Let us all give a warm welcome to Perseus Jackson I trust you will treat him just the same," Dumbledore said

Gosh, what's everyone's problem with calling him Perseus? Percy quickly announced to the whole school "It's just Percy Jackson!"

"Very well then Percy Jackson you may sit back down now." Dumbledore said, "The rest of us will start the feast. After which I will have a few more words to say."

Percy sat back down sighing. He was still getting stared at just because he was American, have these kids never seen an American boy before? He also noticed most of those still looking at him were girls. Why? He had no clue.

"Oh Perseus oh my gosh that's too funny and the thing is I don't feel bad at all," Layla said with a giggly

"Bruh don't start," Percy said annoyed

The redhead next to Harry spoke up "My name is as well Percy, Percy Weasley" "Please to meet you" Percy Weasley said sticking out his hand to Percy Jackson.

Rats, his name was Percy too, well that's going to be annoying Percy shook his hand.

"Nice to meet you too," Percy Jackson said

"If you don't mind answering, what are you doing here from America?" Percy Weasley asked

Percy groaned, Harry and a few other kids were looking at him with curious eyes. Percy had to come up with a solid explanation so that no one would ask more questions about it. There was no way he could tell them the truth.

"Well, I was sent by my school back in America to learn about how you guys do things here." Percy said "Also you guys sent someone back to my school as well" Percy added he didn't want them thinking he was a spy.

"You told me you came here cause you wanted a change," Layla said looking into Percy's eyes

"Yes, I did want a change which is why I volunteered to go," Percy said lying
