Percy POV
I squinted at my schedule, trying to decipher what it said. My friends noticed my struggle.
"Hey man, you good? Need help reading that?" Marcus asked. Isla gasped, "do you noy know how to read?!" She shrieked and heads turned, she looked away embarrassed.
"Shh, keep it down. I dont need more attention after my entrance last night" I told them.
"Wait- so you seriously dont know how to read?" Victor asked. I could feel blood rushing to my face. "I can read," I began speaking though I stopped for a moment, "I just have dyslexia" I finished.
They all blinked twice.
"It makes it hard to read" I explained. "The words swim across the page and I usually cant focus on them" I told them. "I managed to get something out of my first class today but it looks more like 'reca orf magcial ceratrues' so I think its more of 'something for magical creatures' can you guys help me with that one?" I asked.
"Sure Percy, it says care of magical creatures" she said. "Oh looks like you have the same schedule as me, Isabella and Isla" he said.
"Oh come on.." Victor groaned. It seemed he was the only one with a different schedule.
"Atleast you have a lot of classes with Clove, we never see her anymore" Isla complained.
"Yeah your right, atleast I get the only cool person in this group" he said. "No offence Percy" he quickly added.
I chuckled, "none taken" I said.
"UH! The disrespect!" Cried Isla dramatically, a hand on her head. We all burst out laughing and she joined in soon after.
Breakfast got over and I followed the other to my first class (after a dramatic goodbye with Victor, of course).
Apparently we had it with the gryffindors. I cannot wait to see the trio I thought sarcastically.
I've given up trying to earn their trust. They can believe all they want as long as they leave me alone to do my quest.
Though I do have a suspicion that harry is 'chosen' and I know for sure that I am the 'sea'. My heritage confirms that.
We walk out of the castle and I got confused. Weren't classes supposed to be indoors?
We walk towards a hut that I saw earlier. Outside of the hut was a giant, or atleast half giant, he was too small. Even kid giants are bigger than him. I froze in my tracks and clutched riptide in my pocket. My friends looked at me confused. They stared at me and then at the giant, a look of realisation crossed their features as they drew the connection.
"Oh dont worry Percy, Hagrid is a friendly giant. Infact, hes the grounds keeper and a very nice teacher" Marcus said. Isabella and Isla nodded in agreement. I nodded and relaxed a bit and let out a breath I didn't know I was holding. Though I kept my guard up just in case.
We walked towards the teacher and he led us a bit into the forest. "Now dont worry yer little heads off, if anything happens im here to protect yer" he said. Well lets see about that.
"Because of the, erm, disturbance last year affecting yer studies the ministry has me revising everything from yer 5th year" he said. Cue the shouts of outrage from students.
"But Hagrid sir! We already know everything! Its only our 7th year that we missed!" Chimes in a student from the back. There were murmers of agreement and it looked like hagrid was sweating wondering what to say, the poor guy looked like he was having trouble.
I'd decided to trust him, he seems nice enough.
"Yeh well- its not my choice, the ministry has me teaching from yer 5th year, lodge a complaint to the minister" he said, rather confidently. I was surprised, a moment ago he was a mess.
I then glanced at Hermione who had a notebook held up, there was a paragraph on her paper. Hagrid was looking at her in thanks.
I can guess what happened and Hagrid's sudden confidence.
The students quitened down and Hagrid began to teach. "Now as yer all remember from yer 3rd year, we started a lot of different creatures. I have hand picked the most important to go over, today we'll start with thestrals" he said.
I smiled. I remembered then from the cartridge ride, I just hoped they wouldn't make a scene. Hagrid suddenly said 'trees' in horse and I almost burst out laughing.
The thestrals galloped into the clearing and the few students who could see them looked amazed. It was surprisingly a lot who could see them. It was only Harry, Hermione and Ron who had expressions different from the rest. From their stance I could tell they had ridden the thestrals before and didn't like it.
The thestrals were about to bow to me but I quickly stopped them stop! I dont need these wizards knowing who I am I told them in their head.
They paused what they were doing and quickly switched back to normal Of course lord, anything for you one of them said. I could tell it was a she horse.
Whats your name? I asked her. Its Sapphire, my lord. She said and I smiled. That's a lovely name, sapphire. Though I would appreciate if you stop calling me lord. I told her.
Of course boss she said and I groaned. The students around me looked confused.
If a horse could smirk, she would have. I learned from the best boss. She said.
When did you talk to Blackjack? I ask.
Not Blackjack but his Thestral friend she said. I nodded slightly. Do you want to ride me boss? I heard your a very good rider she said and I had to admit I was tempted. The students would be confused though..
Oh screw it, one joy ride never hurt anybody.
I went towards Sapphire and the other thestrals parted. "Hey Perseus! Thats not allowed! You might get hurt!" Shouted the teacher, Hagrid.
I ignored hin and mounted Sapphire. She took off and I could hear the students shout in fear but I didn't care. We flew atop the trees and I felt amazing. The fresh air went through my hair giving me a wind-swept look.
"Whoo!" I shouted out in glee.
Ready boss? Sapphire said but before I could respond she did 3 whole loops in the air. 3 whole loops. I felt over the moon, it took me by surprise but it still felt amazing. I could see Apollo waving down at me from his chariot and I waved back happily.
Should I be concerned that a god waved at me? Nah.
Once my joy ride was done I landed to see an amazed but angry looking teacher, and a clapping crowd of students.
The only people who weren't clapping were the golden trio who just looked at me dumb founded.
Oh well.

Happy Halloween! (Though its not Halloween yet).
Im sorry it took me so long to update but I kinda lost motivation.
But no worries! My motivation cam back.
I have a thing I like to call 'motivation bursts' where I just get a random burst of motivation.
Anyways,
On that note,
Love,
