Half-blood Hogwarts

One month later

PERCY POV

The past month had been amazing. For once i am the smartest. Everyone, once getting over the whole snake deal, is actually really freindly. I have a particular liking for madam Pomfrey. She always manages to remind me of my mother and cheer me up. Umbridge has been the only hindrance (Hermione's assistance with that spectacular use of vocabulary.) in my time here.

So far i have had 10 detentions with her, 50 points removed by her and many Dreadfuls, even a few Trolls. Me and the twins had a massive prank planned for her tomorrow. But first was the Quiditch game between Griffindor and Hufflepuff.

"Alrighty Percy, you ready?" George asked from next to me. We were sat huddled together with the rest of the Quiditch team. Time for a pep talk.

"Okay guys, we have a good game today. We won against Ravenclaw last week, so this win will ensure a win for Griffindore. But whatever you do , don't get cocky. Twins, stay on your toes, the hufflepuff beaters aren't as docile as they look. Harry, keep an eye out for that snitch. Catch it at all costs.....unless your gonna die then don't do it." That earned a few laughs. We all exited the great hall and headed towards the changing rooms. I unwrapped Ky from my shoulders.

:don't tell anyone i'm doing this but, you can have a free slither today. Explore the castle and tell me anything interesting you find out: Ky nodded and slithered off. Hopefully trying to hide her now 6'1 long body. I turned back around and continued getting changed.

Thank Zeus for Rev, my beautiful black greater sooty owl. If not for him i wouldn't be holding my brand new Firebolt Supreme.

"Lets go team!" I called as we all lined up. Me next to harry, the twins, Ron and Angelina Johnson so on. We all mounted up and flew out onto the pitch.

"Go, go, Griffindor! Go, go, Griffindor!" The crowd cheered as we all did a few laps of the pitch before we faced the Hufflepuff team. Madam hooch looked from me to Zacharias, the other team captain, and nodded.

"No rule breaking! I want a nice clean game!" With that she released both bludgers and the snich. Grabbing the quaffle, she tossed it in the air.

I held onto the ball like it was my life line. Two of my fellow chasers flanked me as i weaved my way towards the goal. Faking a throw to the right i managed to score in the first five minutes.

"Jackson scored. Griffindor ten up. Jackson only joined the team this year, but got promoted to captain almost instantly due to his amazing skill on the pitch." What an idiot. I swear sometimes he just loves getting told off by McGonigal for commentating like that.

The quaffel was back in the hands of our team, i noticed a bludger coming straight for Katie, and shielded her, hoping for one of the twins to notice. Luckily they did, and batted it away just in time. Katie shot and scored.

"Another ten to Griffindor." I looked around and spotted Harry in hot pursuit of the snitch. The quaffle came back on the pitch. A bluger was aimed at the lad holding the ball and he swerved carelessly to avoid it. I managed to pull the ball from his weak grip. Taking a lucky punt i threw the ball from almost half-way down the pitch. It payed off. The ball went straight though the goal and the crowd went wild.

"Amazing shot from Jackson, another ten for Griffindor." The quaffle wasn't back on the pitch for five seconds before the bell rang.

"Potter's caught the snitch! Griffindor win! Griffindor win!" I quickly flew over to Harry and congratulated him.

"Well done Prongs." He smiled.

"I could say the same to you Longclaw." I laughed. We had decided that having two padfoot's would be confusing. So i was Longclaw, Harry was Prongs, Ron was Firefur, and Hermione was Beak. It was actually kind of nice to have a close group of freinds. Reminded me of camp.

"Well we had better get back to Beak. She'll go mental if we miss dinner." Harry nodded as we floated back down to the changing rooms. It was a lovely Sunday, and Quiditch just made it all that much better. We walked to the dinning hall in a comfortable silence, that was until it hit me. KY!

"Harry, Ky is loose around the school. I let her go for the match but i have no clue where she might be." He looked around, almost hoping to find her. Then we heard a small hiss.

Do you know how long i sat there waiting for you hm? Half an hour that's how long. What are you, a girl? Did you have to change your bra and panties? I laughed at Ky along with Harry. Only her or Thalia could come up with that.

:sorry Ky, lost track of time. What did you do today?: i said as i wrapped her around my neck. She moved her head next to my ear.

I met the basilisk of Slytherin. He said he wants a new master, since Tom Riddle, his old master, isn't around he can claim a new one. He said that he wants that person to be you. What the FUDGE! A basilisk. Holy Hera. I couldn't exactly ignore the offer. He may be a good ally in the war. But there was an underlying beg in Ky's tone.

:gasp does the great Kymata have a crush?: she coiled a little tighter around my neck. Oh my gods she does. I smiled at her cheekily as she shook her head.

Maybe, but Zander is very nice. He said that people think Basilisk are mindless killing machines when actually they can control their curse, but no-one gives them the chance. Thats why he asked me for help with you. I nodded.

:okay, when can we go see Zander?: she though for a moment.

Tonight if you wish. The chamber is not hard to find. I nodded one final time before entering the hall with Harry. Lucky for us the teachers were still talking so didn't notice our tardiness. We ran and sat beside Ron. He was about to speak when Dumbledore stood up.

"Hello students. The last months has been a very good one. There are no bad reports from any teacher, and in all honesty i'm rather suprised. Anyway, the real reason i have addressed you tonight is to tell you some great news. We have 20 new students transferring from America. The same school as Mr Jackson infact. The will arrive next week on monday morning. I hope you can integrate them as well as you have young Mr Jackson. That is all. Enjoy!"

The food arriving didn't even pull me out of my thoughs. 20 people, all from camp half-blood. Thalia! At that though i began grinning like a mad man. The trio and Mark all snickered knowing what i was thinking of. No matter how hard i tied i couldn't seem to stop smiling.

"So Longclaw, you think you know who's coming over?" Ron asked mid-chew. I thought for a minute, stroking my imaginary beard, earning a laugh from everyone who listening on our conversation.

"Thalia Grace, Annabeth Chase, Nico DiAngelo, Jason Grace, Piper McLean, Leo Valdez, Calypso Atlas, Hazel Levesque, Frank Zhang, Will Solstice, Reyna Anderson, Pollux Smith, Clarisse LaRue, Chris Rodriguez, Katie Gardener, Rachel Dare, Grover Underwood, Juniper Woodland, and the twins Connor and Travis Stoll, or at least that who i think they might be." That was the olympian cabin leaders plus the remaining seven, lord of the wild plus his girlfriend, oracle the Stolls since Chris got promoted to Cabin leader over them. Boy was that a funny incident. Reyna is Praetor and Will's girlfriend and Rachel because she is the oracle. Annabeth would probably come if only to kick my ass for disappearing. Aww shit i was screwed.

"Any of them single?" Ron asked. I was stunned by this. I though he like Hermione.

"Well, Thalia's is with me. Annabeth is an eternal maiden. Nico is with Connor, Katie with Travis. Clarisse and Chris are going out as well as Frank and Hazel. Juniper and Grover are practically married. Leo is going out with Calypso, and Rachel is also an eternal maiden. That leaves Pollux. Fancy having a bit of man candy Firefur?" He turned a deep shade red, making me curl over in laughter. We finished our meal and when back up to the common room.

No one was up for staying up late so we all made our way to bed. I jumped into bed and put my head down on the pillow. I waited for 10 minutes, until i was sure everyone was asleep, then stood back up. Time to meet a Basilisk.
