A/N So I usually don't do author's notes (because I always find myself skipping them and going on to the story anyway), but I just wanted to thank you all for all of the reads! I didn't think the story would get 100 and now it's at over 375! I will try to update once a week no guarantees on that though.

ON WITH THE STORY!!!

~~~Hazel Pov~~~

We boarded the train with about 2 minutes left and started trying to find an open compartment after saying goodbye to Hermione and her friends. We found one quickly, all got in and closed the door.

"I can't believe Hermione is here!" Annabeth proclaimed, "I wonder if anyone else is here too."

"I don't know," Thalia responded, "I mean what are odds of Hermione being here. Let alone others being here."

"You have a point," Annabeth said with slightly less enthusiasm. Just then there was a knock on the door.

"Hey guys," Hermione said, "can we sit in here with you everywhere else is full?"

"Yeah totally," Annabeth said suddenly enthusiastic again, "I have some questions I want to ask as well."

"Alright," Hermione responded sitting down opposite Annabeth with her friends beside her, "ask away."

"Okay first question, are there any other friends from camp here?"

"Yes."

"Who?"

"You'll see."

"Fine. Second question, what are the classes like?"

"They're fun a lot like some of the ones at camp."

"So, easy."

"Exactly."

"Last question, how long is this train ride?"

"About 8 hours. I think I'm not completely sure." At this every demigod in the compartment groans. This was going to be a long ride.

---Time Skippy---3 hours later

It had only been 3 hours but it felt like 10. Not only are there 9 hyperactive demigods in the compartment, but we couldn't talk about either camps or anything demigod related.

"Anything from the trolley dears?" I looked up and saw a woman with a cart full of sweets standing outside the compartment door.

"We'll take 8 boxes of Bertie Botts Every Flavor Beans and 10 chocolate frogs," Annabeth said restraining Leo and Percy.

"That'll be 11 sickles and 3 gallons dearies."

"Thank you," I said handing her the money.

"You're very welcome," I said as she walked away.

"What are Bertie Botts Every Flavor Beans?" Percy asked.

"How do you not know what Bertie Botts Every Flavor Beans are!" Hermione's red head friend said.

"They don't sell them in America," Annabeth quickly covered up.

"Oh, okay,"

"So, what are they," Percy asked again.

"They're like jelly beans, but they are literally in every flavor," Hermione explained.

"So, does every flavor mean good and bad flavors?" I asked

"Unfortunately," Hermione said sadly.

"In that case, I'll pass," I said suddenly losing my appetite.

---Time Skippy--- 3 more hours later

Three more hours were done. It felt like another 10. Piper was asleep on Jason's shoulder, Nico on Will's and Annabeth was reading and Percy asleep on her. Leo was fiddling with some pipe cleaners and Thalia was staring out the window. Frank was also asleep. I was reading a book (it was in Latin) that Annabeth recommended to me. It was called The Fault in Our Stars. (A/N I would say where she was in the book, but I don't want to spoil it for anyone who hasn't read it. Highly recommended.) Hermione was also reading and her friends were playing a game. I looked up to see someone with white blonde hair walking up to our compartment. He obviously hadn't looked up because he was looking at his feet. I recognized him immediately and shook Annabeth to get her attention, accidently waking Frank up in my hurry.

"Hazel, what it is?" Frank asked in alarm. My excitement also got the boy's attention and he looked up with an expression of shock on his face. I pointed and Annabeth immediately stood up and walked out of the compartment. She hugged him and he hugged back.

"Oh, my gods, Draco," Annabeth had stopped hugging him, had pulled him inside the compartment and was now scolding him, "you let us believe you were dead," she punched him lightly in the arm.

"Oww, okay, I get it ," Draco said, "I'm sorry, but I had to I wasn't allowed to tell anyone I was coming here."

"Fine, but don't you dare do that to me, to us, again or so help you I will hunt you down and lock you in the cabin."

"I figured," At this point, Thalia stood up hugged him and then proceeded to punch him in the shoulder.

"You scared us," she firmly stated.

"I, Draco Malfoy, scared the great Thalia," he never got to say Thalia's last name because she punched him again.

"What was that for?"

"For being a boy," Draco rolled his eyes at Thalia's statement and Percy stood up. He just hugged him though, he's not big on any sort of violence, even if it's just playing. Before long we realized that 30 minutes had passed. I moved over so Draco could sit by Annabeth while he explained what he had been doing and what he had done since we had last seen him. He got about halfway through his story, because he kept getting interrupted when he, Hermione, and her friends had to go change into their robes. Luckily he was able to leave the room before Harry and Ron woke up. Apparently there's some tension between them, I'm not really sure why.


(I changed some of this because of plot holes, I recommend rereading but it's not technically necessary.)
