Nico at Hogwarts

Part 9

Leo's P.O.V.

To say that I'm happy is an understatement. I feel like I've been blessed by the god(ess) of happiness, whoever that may be. Nico just told me the best news I have ever heard. He can take Calypso of that island, and he is going to do it soon! I was literally skipping down the hallway singing "Happy" from Will Pharrell, well more like screaming. A lot of other students were laughing at how idiotic I looked, but I didn't care. I am getting my Calypso.

I spotted Fred and George and skipped over at them. "Hey Gred, Forge, how are you doing on this lovely sunny day?" I asked with a big grin on my face. Fred and George looked outside. "Which sun?" They asked at the same time. I looked also outside to see clouds everywhere, 'why does Zeus always have to be in a bad mood when I'm happy?' I asked myself. Thunder boomed, making Fred and George jump. I laughed and continued skipping down the hallways.

Nico's P.O.V.

I grinned as Leo ran through the hallway screaming a song. Sometimes I wonder if he isn't crazy, he may have ADHD, but he takes it to a next level extreme. I had gotten a message from my father that Calypso was going to be set free and I was going to do it. So why not tell Leo, he has been head over heels for her ever since he met her.

I looked down at my hand to see the crystal Leo had given me. He told me to give it to Calypso in case she didn't believe me or anything. It was a crystal from Calypso's cave where she lived in. I put the crystal in my pocket.

I looked back at Leo to see him talking with the Weasley twins, a big grin on his face. I shook my head chuckling and turned around to go to the black lake. Will is probably going mad around now. He doesn't like it when his patients leave when he hasn't given any form of permission, in other words I am in big trouble.

I just arrived at the black lake and looked at the castle. The sun was beginning to set so the castle was casting a large shadow, exactly what I needed to shadow travel to Ogygia. I walked to the part where the shadows were the darkest and looked around and up to see if anyone was watching. Fortunately no one was. I started to concentrate and gather the shadows around me. I started searching for Ogygia and a good place to appear on the island. After about five minutes searching I found the perfect spot. I concentrated on that spot and disappeared into the shadows.

I felt the familiar cold chills that ran down my spine, the harsh wind that made you feel like your face getting peeled of and the soft whispers of the things that were lost in the shadows. Most to all people get freaked out by this but I loved it.

After a few seconds I felt myself 'forming' out of the shadows. And the cold chills, wind and whispers faded away, getting replaced by a soft and warm breeze and the sound of waves crashing down on a beach. I looked around to see that I appeared on the edge of a forest that was close to a beach with white sand and a blue ocean. I walked towards the beach, I expected that there was nothing on the beach but I was surprised when I saw a small pavilion with what looked like a dining table and some chairs on it.

On one of those chairs was sitting a girl about my age, fifteen or sixteen. I assumed that would be Calypso, seeing that her hair looked like molten caramel and her eyes were like a dark almond color. She was staring at the ocean with a sad look on her face, stabbing what looked like broccoli with her fork.

"What has that broccoli ever done to you?" I asked with a small chuckle. Calypso spun around in her seat holding a butter knife as if it were a dagger. She stared at me with cold eyes but I could see the surprise in them.

"Who are you? And what are you doing on my island?" She questioned, her eyes became less cold and more calculating as she took in my posture and clothing. I was wearing my normal black skinny jeans and skull t-shirt, my leather jacket was hanging open.
