The Quest Has Just Begun | A HP/PJO Crossover

Chapter 2 - Champions

Catrina's POV.

Today was the Champion selection for the Triwizard Tournament. Everyone was expected to attend. I didn't want to, but of course I had to. That was where I was right now, actually. In the Great Hall with all the other students. I found this entire tournament stupid, I don't know why they would even do something like this.

"Sit down please. And now the moment you've all been waiting for, the champions selection!" Dumbledore said, I was nearly falling asleep, I hadn't slept in like three days. I was getting tired. The blue flame turned into a red flame then a tiny piece of paper came out of it.

"The Durmstrang champion is ... Viktor Krum! " Dumbledore said. Then, Viktor, the guy I met the other day, had gone up to the front of the room. I smiled, he seemed like a pretty cool guy.

"The champion from Beauxbatons... Fleur Delacour." Dumbledore said, the girl went up.

"The Hogwarts champion... Cedric Diggory." He said, he was a seeker for Hufflepuff last year in the Quidditch. I remember seeing him. He walked up and grabbed the piece of paper and walked off to where the other two had gone. I clapped like everyone else.

"Excellent! we now have our three champions! But in the end only one will go down in history. Only one will hoist this chalice of champions, this vessel of victory the tri-wizard cup!" Dumbledore said. But then the fire turned red once more, and two pieces of paper came out. Everyone was shocked, myself included. It was only suppose to be three, but now it's five. That's crazy.

"Harry Potter and Catrina Jackson!" Dumbledore yelled. Did he just call my name? He did. I never entered this stupid competition!

"Harry Potter and Catrina Jackson!" Dumbledore yelled once again. Me and Harry stood up, and walked up.

"Cheat! Their not even seventeen yet." Someone yelled. everyone started yelling similar things at the two of us. I didn't put my name in the cup, how is it that I was called up.

"Yeah, I'm not seventeen, technically I'm a thousand and one!" I yelled back at them. They went silent. Dumbledore handed us the piece of paper with our name on it and we had to walk to the trophy room where the other champions were. When we walked in and the three looked confused. That's when Dumbledore walked in and grabbed Harry by his shirt, he

knew better then to do that to me, so obviously he didn't.

"Harry! Did you put your name in the goblet of fire?" Dumbledore asked him

"No sir." Harry said.

"Did you ask one of the older students to do it for you?" Dumbledore asked.

"No sir." Harry said.

"You're absolutely sure?" Dumbledore asked.

"Yes sir." Harry said, thats when Dumbledore turned to look at me.

"Did you put your name into that goblet?" he asked.

"No, I would never want to compete in a competition as stupid as this. Eternal glory and a money prize doesn't appeal to me. I think whoever would want to compete in this, is foolish. No offence to you guys." I said to the other champions.

"Well of course they are lying." Madame Maxime, the headmistress of Beauxbatons had said.

"The hell they are. The goblet of fire is an exceptionally powerful magical object, only an exceptionally powerful conjurer could have hoodwinked it. Magic way beyond the talents of a fourth year and someone who prefers a sword over a wand." Moody said.

"You seem to have given this a fair bit of thought Mad-Eye." Igor, the Headmaster of Durmstrang had said.

"It was once my job to think as dark wizards do, Karkaroff perhaps you remember?" Moody said.

"That doesn't help Alastor. Leave this to you, Barty." Dumbledore said to Barty Crouch.

"The rules are absolute, the goblet of fire constitutes a binding magical contract. Mr.Potter and Miss.Jackson have no choice, they are as of tonight... tri-wizard champions." Barty said. Great I had to compete in this now? I didn't even put my name in it myself. The champions were told to go off. But Dumbledore told me to stay.

"Miss.Jackson, you may or may not have put your name into that goblet-" Dumbledore said, I cut him off.

"I didn't put my name into the goblet. Now carry on." I said.

"But, I do know your magic skills are very low compared to everyone else in your year. This competion is strictly magic only so no swords or any other weapon like that." Dumbledore said.

"This girl is known by the entire wizarding world and is famous and she is stupid. She knows nothing!" Madame Maxime said. I was gonna do something but I was stopped by someone grabbing my wrist.

"Woah there, Catrina. Zeus would have had your head if you did something." Apollo said grabbing my wrist.

"Who sent you this time? My father? Zeus? Artemis?" I asked.

"None of them actually, it was Ares. He didn't want to come himself so he told me to tell you the greatest heroes started off knowing nothing, and grew to be the very best." Apollo said.

"He has said that once before to me, long ago. Why must he tell me again?" I asked, pulling my wrist from Apollo's grasp.

"You must learn magic. You know very little now but you must learn, like you did before hunting with Artemis." Apollo said. I crossed my arms.

"Well I kind of figured that, I can't use my sword or my bow in this competion. I don't want to die, you know that." I said.

"Yeah well it's just what Ares wanted me to tell you." Apollo said.

"I can teach her everyday after classes." Moody said.

"I would rather compete in this and die then learn magic from you." I said, Apollo grabbed my wrist once again. I turned to him.

"Catrina, take his offer. You will get no others. Be wise. One detention is what he gave you, you mustn't keep that one little thing against him." Apollo said to me. I sighed.

"Fine, I accept your offer Professor." I said. After everything was sorted Apollo left, but he said once the first task came he would be there cheering me on, along with my father, he even said Artemis and the huntress would be here. Also it looks like I have to learn magic from Moody. I admit I was stupid to not accept at first. I'm actually kind of glad that Apollo told me to take the offer. I am also kind of glad he is the one that comes and brings messages to me.
