Demigods at Hogwarts

Chapter 4

As much as I would love to, I do not own Percy Jackson's or Harry Potter's world. All rights go to Rick Riordan and J.K. Rowling.
---------------------------------------------------------

Harry's POV

After the Americans got all their supplies, I remembered that they had the chance to bring a pet. "Oh, I forgot. You have the opportunity to bring either a cat, a toad, or an owl with you to Hogwarts. I recommend an owl, since they deliver mail, but it is up to you." I said.

"Cool. Where do we buy the pets?" Annabeth asked. I lead her and the others down to Eeyclops Owl Emporium.
When we got in the shop, all the owls seemed to fly towards Annabeth.  "Woah... Hey there, owls." She said.
In the end, Annabeth bought both a stormy gray owl (A/N when I typed in stormy, my phone auto corrected it to stormtrooper, lol) that matched her eyes and a Himalayan cat. Nico ended up getting a tiny black kitten, and Leo got a toad. The rest of the exchange students didn't get anything. Annabeth named her owl Athena, and her cat Artemis. Nico named his kitten Bianca, which seemed to be a sore subject for him. Leo named his toad McShizze. 

After paying for the animals, Nico asked "So... What do we do now?"

It was Mrs. Weasley who replied. "Go back to your rooms and sleep. You have a big day coming up!"

Leo's POV

In a couple of hours, all of us demigods will be going to the train station to head to Hogwarts. As nine ADHD demigods, we needed something to do as we waited. All of us were sitting on the floor of the girls's room

"We could... play a game?" Annabeth suggested.

"What game?" Hazel asked.

"Oh, truth or dare!" Percy eagerly said. 

"Nah, that could get weird." I shivered as I said this, wondering what Aphrodite-love-stuff Piper would come up with for the couples. Piper doesn't have a lot of Aphrodite traits, but when it comes to relationships, she is a fangirl.

"We could watch a movie," Frank suggested.

"Yeah, let's watch the 'Little Mermaid!'" Said Percy. We all agreed to it, and Annabeth put the movie on.

"Are you all ready to Apparate to King's Cross Station?" Asked Mrs. Weasley as she came into the girls's room.

"Apparate?" Percy questioned.

Annabeth rolled her eyes. "Yes, seaweed brain. Remember, that's the loud cracking noise that we heard the first real day at our stay here when the Weasleys arrived. It is sort of like... Nico's method of travel?" She looked at Mrs. Weasley as she said that last part, but Mrs. Weasley didn't seem to notice.

"Oh yeah... but aren't we all using Nico's method?" Percy asked.

"Yeah, as long as Hazel is helping." Nico, who hadn't spoken in awhile said.

"All right, well get your trunks ready to leave, then head down stairs. We will be leaving from there." Mrs. Weasley said as she walked out of the room.

We all moved our trunks downstairs and Shadow Traveled to Kings Cross. 

"So, where do we go from here?" I asked Jason. We were in the middle of stations 9 and 10, but our tickets said 9 3/4.

"I don't know. Let's ask the train helpers." Jason said. I went up to the nearest one and asked him how to find the platform.

"Every year!" The helper exclaimed. "Every year people ask me where that platform is. Every year. Is this some kind of cult or something?" Then he walked away, muttering about time wasters.

Just then, the Weasleys, the Hermione, and Ron joined us. "You just have to run through that wall over there." Ron told us, as he pointed to a column between platforms nine and ten. The column was closer to platform ten, in fact it was... closer to 10 by on quarter. 

"So cool! Wizards are awesome!" I exclaimed as I raced through the wall. Instead of crashing into the wall, I went straight through it. Immediately, I could feel the difference. There was so much machinery and magic all around me. Behind me, everyone else came through the wall. I heard a sharp intake of breath. I looked over to see Annabeth looking around the platform like Christmas (or another holidays, shout out to my Jewish friends) had come early. 

"Trains' leaving 'n 3 minutes!" I heard someone shout.

"Oh, shoot. We should probably get on the train." Harry rushed off to find a compartment and Ginny, Hermione, and Ron joined him.

Hermione's POV

"I'm telling you, there is something off with the exchange students." Harry told Ron, Ginny, and I as we came into a compartment with only Neville and Luna in it. Luna was reading the latest addition of the Quibbler upside-down, and Neville was restraining Trevor the toad who was trying to run away.

Neville smiled as he looked up and saw us. "Hey guys! Er... what are you talking about?"

"Oh, nothing," I said in a forced cheerful tone. "Harry just thinks that the exchange students are death eaters."

Harry blushed a little. "I didn't say they were death eaters. I just thought that they were a little strange." Harry changed the subject to Quidditch, and that lasted for about 5 minutes when the exchange students joined us. As Percy, being the closest to the door closed it, his sleeve came up a little to show some kind of black mark. When Harry saw this, he stiffened and nudged Ron. He pointed at a spot on Percy's arm with his elbow, in a would-be-calm sort of way. Percy noticed this and pulled his sleeve up before entering the compartment. 

I introduced the exchange students to Neville and Luna. Luna looked up and (shocker,) got a far away look in her eyes as she stared at Percy like she wasn't actually seeing him.

Harry's POV

I tried to forget it, but the black marking I saw on Percy's arm definitely looked like a dark mark.
