Who you gonna call? ~Percy Jackson Harry Potter Crossover

We did our job ~Chapter 10

"There's nothing we can do?"

"I'm afraid not, my prince." 

Nico nodded slowly and allowed the ghost to leave. Most of the ghosts had gotten through their trials successfully and were allowed to be sent back to Hogwarts. However, there were a few that would have to stay in the underworld and pay for their crimes. 

Nico looked over to the ghosts that would be staying behind. There were few but it was still sad to see them. The Bloody Baron was looking over at the Grey Lady sadly. Nico knew he would most likely stay because the gods didn't exactly appreciate someone besides them killing.

It was hard not to feel bad for these souls who thought they would be safe at Hogwarts forever. Nico just had to remind himself that the underworld had no mercy, only justice.

"Excuse me?" Nico turned to see the Bloody Baron himself. He looked very timid and depressed. Nico tried to give him a sympathetic look. 

"Yes?" 

"I was wondering if you could tell my students a few things for me." He looked at the ground when he said this. 

"Of course."

Nico ended up taking quite a few messages for the students back at Hogwarts from these ghosts. 

"You ready, Nico?" Jason asked as he game up behind Nico. Nico looked back towards the ghosts and gave them a comforting nod before turning away with Jason and Percy. 

The walk out of the underworld was a difficult one today. The ghosts weren't happy to leave their friends behind, but they were also glad to be able to go home. Nico was still struggling to figure out how he felt about everything.

"You okay?" Will asked Nico, with a small sympathetic smile on his face. Right after he had delivered all of the ghosts messages Nico had gone to call Will. 

"I was feeling okay with everything until I saw the students." Nico told him. "The ghosts all got a fair trial and are where they're supposed to be now. But, those students didn't deserve to lose them."

Will nodded.

"I wish I could be there with you." He said softly. Nico blushed a little and looked back at his boyfriends beautiful blue eyes.

"Me too." Will smiled at Nico. 

"When will you be back?"

"Hopefully soon," Nico ran his hand through his hair. "I need to talk with McGonagall but after that I should be able to go back."

"Well, then what are you doing talking to me?" Will jested. "Go do that so I can kiss you!"

The boys laughed. Nico looked back at Will. He was so lucky. 

"Okay, I'll go." Nico sighed. "I love you."

"I love you, too." 

Nico ended the message and then got up to go see McGonagall.

He barely got twenty paces out of the room of requirement before he heard someone calling his name. He turned to see Rose coming up to him.

"There you are." She said as she caught up to him.

"Hi." Nico responded. He was curious as to why she would want to talk to him right now.

"I was wondering if I could ask you for some advice." she asked hesitantly. Nico nodded.

"Well, my little brother," she started, looking as though she was struggling to find the right words. " He doesn't exactly understand what's going on. He doesn't see how any of it is fair."

Nico nodded. He definitely understood. He had felt that way before too.

"He's angry." she said. "And he's a sweet kid, he's never this angry. I don't know what to tell him. I just want him to be happy and I don't want him to be mad at me too."

Rose looked very defeated. Nico couldn't help but smile. She reminded him of Bianca when she talked about her brother like this. Nico took a breath.

"Well," Nico looked down before smiling softly at Rose. "I know a bit about what your brother is feeling."

"See, a long time ago," Nico started as he leaned back and crossed  his arms. "My older sister, Bianca, wanted to do something that would mean I wouldn't get to see her as much anymore. I didn't like it. And after... I was never gonna see her again."

Rose looked at Nico sympathetically. Nico had to look up for a moment to keep himself together.  

"I was really mad." he continued. " But, eventually, my friends... family, really helped me just by being there for me. Overtime I understood her decision."

Rose nodded. 

"So, my advice," Nico looked back at Rose. "explain it the best you can, give him time, but mostly, just be there for him."

 Rose smiled, her eyes a little watery from the story. Suddenly, she hugged him tightly around the waist. Nico stiffened in shock at first. Then he loosened up and awkwardly hugged her back.

"Thank you." She said quietly before releasing him. "I should get going."

She started to walk away before she turned around. 

"I'm sorry about your sister." she said. Nico nodded. 

"It's okay."

"Thank you, Mr. Di Angelo." 

Nico walked away from Professor McGonagall's office and went to find where Percy and Jason went. Luckily they were easy to find. 

In the great hall, Percy and Jason were sitting, stuffing their faces full of food while Albus and Scorpius watched. Nico couldn't help but cringe a little. He could tell that Jason was at least trying to look like he had manners. 

Nico decided to join them. 

"Hey, Nico." Percy said, before swallowing his food. Jason hit him lightly on the arm. 

"Don't talk with your mouth full dude." Jason told him. 

"Hey, you're not my mom and she's not here. So I do what I want." Percy said before shoveling more food into his face. 

"So, when are we done here?" Jason asked Nico. "When do we go back?"

Albus and Scorpius looked up at that. 

"Anytime we want." Nico said. " We did our job."

Ah sorry this chapter was very short. I'm realizing that I have much more of this story to tell. This chapter was very fluffy and I just wanted to get this part done and ready for you guys. I'm thinking there will only be one or two more chapters after this. Thank you guys so much for all the support. I'm excited but sad that this is ending. Thank you guys.
