Skye's P.O.V.

We walked behind Percy, lost in thought. At one point he stopped, looking confused but then shook his head and carried on walking. We headed over the top of the hill and I gasped at the sight that met my eyes. The camp was full of large white-collumned buildings and in the distance I could see strawberry fields, a kyacking lake, stables, a climbing wall that seemed to be shooting lava and a huge pastel blue farmhouse with white trimmings, which is where we seemed to be headed. Percy looked a bit worried and said quickly, "Don't ask any questions. Chiron will explain."

I could see Harry bursting to say something and laughed as he tried not ask a question.

"You look more confused than a Hufflepuff," I told him giggling. Harry looked indignant and Percy looked at me weirdly.

"What the hell is a Hufflepuff?" he asked, raising his eyebrows. Luckily I was saved having to explain by the appearance of a centaur.

Harry's face fell and he made to bow in respect, which I thought was a reasonably smart move considering the attitudes of the centaurs that lived at Hogwarts, but he stopped at a strange noise from Percy, which sounded like a stiffled snigger.

"What?" Harry looked miffed but the centaur smiled kindly, noticing Harry's accent.

"Do not be embarrassed," he said. "I know that my British counterparts are less tollerating of humans and treating them with any less respect would have greatly injured their honour, but here in America we are more relaxed." Then he turned to Percy. "Do not laugh at others' customs, it could get you hurt."

Percy looked at the ground, his ears almost as pink as Ron's had been.  It was my turn to smirk, as the centaur turned back to Harry.

"I am Chiron, activities director here at camp, and yet you do not seem shocked by my appearance. Who are you?"

Harry glanced back at us but we nodded encouragingly and he said, "I'm Harry Potter, and this is Skye Jackson, Hermione Granger and Ron and Ginny Weasley," pointing at us in turn. "Until last year we were all students at Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry." Percy's mouth dropped open and he stared at us.

"So your...magicians?" he asked, gobsmacked. I groaned.

"No, we are wizards and witches. Magician is the term used for muggles who play with cards and pretend to do tricks." I said pointedly. The others laughed at my put-out tone but Percy was too curious to be embarrassed.

"Wow," he gasped, "So you can like, do magic and stuff? Awesome!" Harry laughed at his awed face and conjured his patronus, making it run around Percy.

"You're such a show off," I moaned and Harry shrugged as his stag raced around us.

"What in Tartarus is that?!" came a girl's voice from behind us. Percy smiled weakly as Harry's patronus faded. I spun around and was confronted by a girl with long blond hair like mine. She didn't seem too happy.
