Another Evil Grandfather (Completed)

Chapter 6 - Percy

"I'm so sorry," Hermione was saying. "Harry didn't used to be like this. ALl the fame from defeating Voldemort the second time has gotten to his head."

"He was flirting with Annabeth!"

"He inferred that Percy is evil and he's better than Percy!"

Ginny frowned. "I wish I could excuse my former boyfriend's actions, but I can't. He finally let the popularity get to him. I dumped him because of it, but it seemed to make matters worse."

Hermione added. "He's become a shameless flirt, very arrogant..."

The demigods, or are we gods?, sighed. "Maybe we could prank him?" Leo suggested hopefully.

Hermione sighed. "Just wait until Hogwarts. You'll have more allies there because people won't know about your heritage."

Reyna swung open the door.

Thalia grumbled, "This is why I chose to become a hunter. But did you see Ron? Ugh, no offense to your brother, Gin, but he's awful. He was winking at me all dinner."

Ginny sighed. "The popularity's gotten to his head too. Its the reason I dumped them first for 'Mione, and now you all as well."

I sighed, stepping into the room. "Thanks for the words. I'm still mad, but I get that Harry's a good person, he's just a bit confused."

Ginny smiled, but it was hard, and cold. "Hopefully he'll snap out of it."

"Maybe. That depends on you all."

I spun around. A woman stood there. She had black eyes, with blonde hair flowing around her. A polecat stood on her shoulder, and a dog rested by her feet.

Along with everyone else in the room, I dropped and bowed. Ginny, seeing that we were bowing, hastily followed our example.

"Lady Hecate," Hazel said respectfully.

The goddess tittered. "Get up, heroes."

We stood. "Why are you here, Lady Hecate?" Frank asked, putting a protective arm around his girlfriend.

Hecate smiled at us. "Well, the Wizarding World is my domain. I came to offer help so you don't manage to reveal our existence within the first five minutes of your stay."

"Why?" I asked bluntly. Not my best idea, but NO MORE QUESTS!

Hecate only smiled at me. "The Wizarding World is still in turmoil after Riddle's defeat. I worry for the safety of the demigod world if the wizards find out about us."

"Thank you, Lady Hecate," Annabeth said respectfully, elbowing me in the gut to prevent me from saying something incredibly stupid.

"I will bless all of you, yes, even you, Ginerva, with a ability to perfectly retain all information about the Wizarding World. I will also share a warning: wizards can be harmed by godly metals, but you, as demigods or gods are impervious to all wizarding spells. All, except for three. The Unforgivable Curses."

Hermione stifled a gasp. Me, I was wondering what the unforgivable curses were.

"The Unforgivable Curses are the Imperius Curse, which controls people. When this is cast on demigods, however, it becomes very weak, and since most demigods have very strong wills, it should be easy to shake off. The next is the Killing Curse, Avada Kedavra. It will just knock you out, instead of killing you."

Hecate surveyed us with her fathomless eyes. "The third is the Cruciatus Curse. It causes extreme pain. And, unfortunately for you, it is the only curse that works."

Ehhh.... Can't be worse than Tartarus.

"How is it that all of us have Wizarding Magic, Lady Hecate?" Annabeth asked curiously. I face-palmed. Annabeth and her curiosity. Curiosity killed the cat, you know.

"All demigods have magic as part of your godly blood. The stronger the demigod, the stronger the wizard. Now, the blessings. Step forward, Annabeth Chase."

My fiance stepped forward. Hecate held her torch to Annie's forehead.

After a couple worrying moments, my girlfriend stepped back. In a row, all the others were called up and the same process was repeated.

Finally, Hecate called me up. I stepped forward.

"Perseus Jackson."

I stepped forward, and she placed her torch by my head. It didn't really burn, just tickled. Suddenly, every little tidbit I had learned about the Wizarding World organized itself in my mind like a folder system.

Hecate looked over all of us. "Use my blessing wisely."

She vanished, the dog and polecat with her.
