The Untold Truth

Chapter 15- Backup

Percy POV-
We had been practicing for days, with breaks of course, when a bunch of older people showed up at the school. Minerva was walking towards us with a crowd behind her. Harry waved to the tall African man towards the front, "Kingsley!" He shouted in greeting.
"Hello Harry," Kingsley replied. "Now who are the three in charge here?"
I shrugged and stepped forward. Nico and Draco stood beside me. Kingsley looked at us skeptically before walking forward. He held out his hand for me to shake, "Percy Malfoy," I said shaking his hand. "And this guy is Nico di Angelo, and the other is Draco Malfoy. How may we be of service?"
"Well I was hearing such great things. I wanted to see what you could do for myself."
I shrugged, "Sure we'll show you a demonstration." We got together and started fighting once more. After all this time working with the other students, I knew they could tell we weren't really trying but no one said anything. When we stopped Kingsley and his friends looked at us in shock.
"Wow, but how do you do in a wizards duel?" One of the others asked.
"Would anyone like to try to fight one of us?" Nico asked.
The same man stepped forward and motioned to me. We stepped away from each other and everyone backed away. We suddenly started throwing curses at each other. When I had his wand in my hand he smiled, "Wow, Ron was right, you are quite an amazing fighter."
"Glad to know he speaks so highly of me. Your son is very talented with a bow. It comes very naturally to him," I said.
"How were they able to learn so quickly?" Kingsley asked.
"We'll we put something in the pumpkin juice," Nico said sheepishly scratching the back of his neck.
"What was it?" one of the students asked.
"A potion that the Hecate cabin made up to make people easier to teach and more willing to learn. It's no big deal. We use it on the young campers at home when we teach them to fight. It has no side affects and the affected don't even notice."
"Oh, okay," said the student.
"Anyways back to training. We believe with a month of training their new skills should come in handy in battle. Otherwise they won't be good enough to really to much damage. I looked it up, wizards and witches should be able to be injured by our kind of metal cause your descendants of Hecate, so we won't have to worry about kind of weapons."
A dark voice floated from the trees, "To bad you don't have a month," it said. Right before all Tartarus broke lose.
