solangelo as hogwarts teachers

chapter 4

hey, so you know how Jason could rival Percy's strength? and Jason said that Nico would be too much to handle (in House Of Hades i think, it was during the cupid incident, which ever book that was)? so does that mean Nico is stronger than Percy? and Nico said that Percy's the strongest demigod he's ever known, could mean that Nico's the most powerful demigod ever?  I don't know, but I believe it.

Nico's POV:

Once it was time to go to our first class, we watched the trio rush to where ever the class was. since we didn't know where the class was, Sunshine and I decided to follow them. we tried to be discreet about it, but Will basically tripped over me, shoving me to the ground right in front of the trio. Harry and Ron glared at me accusingly, and Hermione looked like she was confused on what I was doing on the floor. i quick hopped up, walked over to Solace and flicked his cheek. I walked back over to the three who had watched me the entire time. 

"why're you following us? are you a stalker, too?" Ron questioned us angrily. 

"wha- No! we don't know where the CFMC class is, so we followed you in hopes to get there. then, Solace just had to trip on me, sending me on the ground in front of you." I explained, emphasizing words to show I was mad. but when I put emphasis on words, my Italian accent kicks in, for some reason.

Sunshine noticed and smirked knowingly at me. Harry and Ron looked a little surprised, but that was probably because I didn't have some master evil plan to destroy them and everyone they love. oh, well. I don't really care what they think. Hermione on the other hand, looked at me as if I was a puzzle she had to solve. I'm Italian, not someone with a super secret backstory, Hermione! oh, wait. Yeah, I am.

"you could've just asked, why didn't you?" Hermione asked politely, probably to mask the suspicions that she noticed I picked up on. Harry and Ron whipped their heads to Hermione. they looked completely appalled that she would even have that thought.

"that." I pointed to Ron and Harry, " that is why." 

Hermione looked at the two for a second, and turned back to me. she nodded in understatement. she continued to lead them as if nothing had happened and Will and I followed a distance behind. once we were close, we noticed that the giant from earlier was their teacher. hopefully he's not hostile towards us. I'm starting to regret choosing this class. Will has the same look of recognition once we get a little closer to the hut where all the other students are gathered. it's gryffindors and slytherins. yes I know I'm not either, but I convinced Dumbledore that we needed to be together for the same reason I sat by Will at camp. so, I go to CFMC and charms with Will, cuz those are our two classes together, besides the ones we're teaching. 

as we got closer, the giant turned to us. "Ah, you two mus be the new students! I'm Hagrid, and what are your names?" the giant boomed at us. but somehow it wasn't threatening.

"I'm Nico di Angelo, that's William Solace." I introduced in a somewhat quiet voice. I noticed Hermione writing something down on a notebook she randomly got out of nowhere. she's probably writing down our names to research later. hopefully to prove we're innocent, or maybe to help Harry and Ron find reasons to prove we're evil. I suppose we'll see once they confront us about it later. 

Hagrid then started to talk about thestrals. apparently only people who've witnessed death see it. so, any demigod ever should be able to see them. most people here should, too, since the battle of Hogwarts only happened a year ago, to my understanding. Hagrid left for a second to grab one. he said to make two lines, one for people who could see it, another for people couldn't see it. the majority of people went to the first side. 5 people went to the second side. they were some unnamed people, so I didn't pay much attention to them. 

Ginny, Luna, Will, and I all gathered up so we could be next to each other in line. Unfortunately, Harry went right next to Ginny. Ginny had told us beforehand that she wasn't out to the trio, and they didn't know who she was dating, or that she was dating. she told us that she was going to tell him herself, but not right away, which I can respect. Harry, being the ass that he's proved to be, started hitting on her. it was annoying to watch. annoying to hear. I was about to go over to Harry and rip his head off when Luna finally slapped him. it shut him up momentarily.

"hey, what's your problem?! I was just trying to get back together with my girlfriend, you got a problem with that?!" Harry demanded/yelled at Luna. "yes, I do have a problem!" Luna yelled back, glanced at Ginny, who nodded, then turned back to Harry. "you're hitting on my girlfriend! I think that's reason enough to get mad, don't you think?!" Luna reasoned angrily. Harry went pale. either because he was embarrassed, scared of Luna (which he should be), or homophobic. I'm guessing it was a mix of all three based on the next thing he said.

"You're a D*** ?!" He shouted at both Ginny and Luna. (A/N: that was the lesbian slur if you didn't realize that. it's not my slur, so I can't really say it... but hey I can say my own slurs. I wouldn't want other people reclaiming my slurs for me, soo...). his voice went very high, so most likely he was scared and embarrassed. he should be more than that, but it was good enough for now. 

Before any of us could respond, Hagrid came back with what I assumed to be a thestral. it actually looked really cool. I realized I've seen it before. they were pulling the carriages on the way to the castle. Harry switched places with Hermione in line and everyone went quiet.
