Percy

Hogwarts amazed me.  There was magic everywhere.  When Chiron told us about it, this was not what I had imagined.

I remembered arriving at Camp Half-Blood after months of being away.  Everyone had seemed excited to see him, which he hadn't expected at all.  Even Clarisse, who he rarely got along with seemed happy to see him.  

Then Chiron brought the seven of them to the war council.  After being with the Romans for so long, you'd think I'd look down on a meeting around a ping-pong table, but this was home sweet home to me.

We quickly explained everything that had happened and Annabeth's ordeal with the Mark of Athena.  Thats when Chiron explained the situation.  How if we flew to England, we would find help at a school.  A school of wizards.  

At first I thought he was joking.  I especially thought he was joking when he said we were flying in a plane.  But here we are.   

"So Percy," Hermione said as the food appeared in front of us.    I quickly grabbed some pizza that must've been there specially for us.  "Tell us more about this war you are in."

"It started six months ago, two months after the war with the Titans ended.  Hera took me and Jason and put him in my camp and put me to sleep for months.  We've already killed a couple of the giants, but there are still a bunch left."

"My Dad said you had a rough life."  Ron remembered looking at his dad who was up with the teachers.  "Does that have to do with the Titan war?"

"You bet."  Annabeth said, smiling at her boyfriend.  "He's gone on many adventures.  Done things that are unimaginable."

I felt my cheeks flush.  "They weren't that great.  It was just a bunch of big-ego bad guys that were trying to kill me."

"Like that giant?"  Frank laughed turning to the Brits.  "You should've seen it.  The giant was screaming at him to die and Percy was like 'I will destroy you with my awesome water powers'!"

"Can it, Zhang!"  I snapped, turning even more red as everyone laughed.  "I'm not the one who can change into any animal I want to on command."

"You can summon freaking hurricanes that wipe out entire glaciers!"  Frank shot back.

The Brits were watching our exchange in amusement and awe.

"You can summon hurricanes?"  Ron asked.

"You can change into any animal?"  Hermione asked at the same time.

I rolled my eyes.  "It's not that great."

"Don't worry."  Harry said from next to Annabeth.  "I know how you feel.  My wand does one great thing and they all say it's me."

Hermione frowned.  "It was you!"

Harry spread out his arms in a see what I mean gesture.

I gave him a smile as i shoveled food into my mouth.  I hadn't been able to eat on the plane because the only thing that was going through my mind was that Zeus had his lightning bolt and could very well blast me out of the sky.

"You didn't change much in eight months, did you Seaweed Brain?"  Annabeth asked as I finished off my PIzza and we followed the wizards to the common room.  "Still goofy as always."

That night Annabeth and I were sitting in the Gryffindor common room after everyone had gone to bed.  Ron and Harry had shown Jason, Frank, Leo and I our beds and Hermione showed Annabeth, Piper, and Hazel theirs.
