3rd POV

After around three and a half hours of retrieving money from the 'coolest bank in history', shopping for school equipment and being chosen by a wand (which took quite a while, as none of them were actually magic, and nothing happened when they waved with them) the six demigods finally made their way to King's Cross station.

They were all very lost and confused, as people would only laugh when they asked for platform nine and three quarters, and it was only ten minutes until the train was leaving.

"Look out for 'pickpockets', as the muggles call them, apparently they'll steal things from your bags and pockets!" An old, british, female voice screamed.

"Yes mum!" Another younger male voice answered.

They turned around, and saw an older woman with orange hair leading two boys, (one with the same fiery red hair as her, and one with jet black hair and an oddly shaped scar on his forehead) and two girls (one also with the same fiery red hair as the two others, and one with frizzy brown hair.) towards platform 9.

"Muggles? Wasn't that what the old man had said?" Percy asked the others. "Maybe they know where the platform is!"

"That actually made sense, Percy! Congratulations!" Annabeth smiled at him, before walking up to the woman.

"Excuse me," She questioned. "Could you please tell us how to get to platform nine and three quarters?"

"Of course, sweetie! But haven't you been here before? It's really not often students enter straight into older classes." The woman asked gently.

"No, we haven't been here before, we have been attending a different school, but we decided that Hogwarts would provide us with better eduacation." Melody smiled at the woman, but in the corner of her eye she could see the four other people staring at them all.

"Well I'm delighted that you thouht so!" She smiled at them in a way that made them feel welcomed and protected. "Oh! Where are my manners? My name is Molly Weasley, this is my daughter Ginny," She pointed at the girl with the red hair, "my son, Ronald," she pointed at the red headed boy, "and their good friend Hermione." She looked at the brown haired girl. "And of course, Harry."

"Mum, you're rambling again! Show them the platform!" Ginny stated.

"Of course! Ginny?" She looked at her only daughter.

Ginny smiled, before grabbing her trolley and running straight through the brick wall between platform nine and ten, Harry following.

The demigods all gasped, but instantly remembered that they were wizard.

"Can we get through here? We're not wizards." Melody questioned the others in Ancient Greek.

"Let's just hope for the best, Percy, you first." Annabeth answered, still in Ancient Greek.

"Why me?" Percy asked in English.

"That's life, Percy." Nico said, before pushing him towards the brick walls.

Percy took a deep breath, said a short prayer to his father, and ran through the brick wall.

The others sighed in relief, and followed.

Right before Melody ran through she thanked Molly, and smiled at Ron and Hermione.

On the other side of the wall was another platform, filled with people jumping on the train, and people saying goodbye to loved ones.

Ginny was kind enough to tell them where to put their luggage, and that the train was leaving, so they better hurry up.

They rushed onto the train, and tried to find an empty compartment, however they were all occupied.

"We need to find a place to sit, and everyone is staring at us!" Travis commented.

"Probably because we're all wearing orange t-shirts, and we're the only Americans on this train."

"Stop complaining, we'll find a compartment soon, and it's not like our shirts say Camp Half-Blood anyways." Melody looked angrily at the brothers, before continuing through the train.

After another five minutes they passed a compartment where the three others from earlier sat.

Percy opened the door, and asked if they could sit with them.

"Sure!" Harry smiled.

Melody noticed that Ginny was not sitting with the others, but thought nothing of it.

"You never introduced yourself." Hermione hesitantly stated.

"I'm Melody" Melody smiled.

"Percy," Percy stated.

"Annabeth,"

"Travis,"

"Connor,"

"Nico."

The six of them smiled at the trio in front of them.

"Where are you from?" Harry questioned.

"We live in New York." Connor said.

"We used to live in New York, Connor." Annabeth corrected him.

"Right. Cause now we live at Hogwarts." Connor smiled, and looked at his friends.

This is going to be a long train ride, he thought. And it was.

They talked about their home country, differences between themselves with the strangers, and they described the sorting ceremony, until the train finally arrived at the station.

The six friends stepped away from the trio, and exited the train.

"Where are we supposed to go?" Nico asked, looking at their surroundings.

"Perhaps we should follow those people!" Percy exclaimed, and pointed to three boys wearing black robes labeled Slytherin.

Right, I know it's been ages since I updated last, my apologies.
I know this is a short chapter, I'll try to make the next ones longer, I'm just kind of new to this...

I also want to thank all the people that are reading this, it means a lot to me. Thank you.
