Harry Potter meets Percy Jackson

Zoe Bob Jackson

"Why is she not awake yet?" I asked mom for the millionth time, glancing at Silena. Everybody was crowded around her, waiting for her to wake up. 

"Zoe," Mom said, "For gods' sake, please keep quiet!" she ordered. I turned back to Silena. 

"Where is Luke?" I asked her, remembering the point of this quest in the first place. Mom turned around and extended her hand, and Luke walked over. 

"He just appeared when the monster disappeared," Lily explained when I was still confused. "I think the monster possesed him," she said, her eyes a little wide. 

"I hope it didn't," I said. I didn't really hear what she said, but everybody else was looking at her like she was a little cuckoo, and I heard the word possesed so I put two and two together. Silena turned to one side. 

Everybody rushed over to her again, but then she went still. 

"Why is she not awake yet?" I asked mom,

"Zoe!" she cried, exasperated, I scoffed. Rude. I was still holding her hand, because I had held it when I thought she died, so I didn't let go yet. 

"Can we take Silena to the Seashell hotel, and wait there?" I asked mom and dad, mom seemed to ponder this, 

"we could do that, because she would probably be very tired when she wakes up again," she said, "yeah, let's go back, it's no use staying here anyway,"

"But how do we get back?" Lily asked them, "How did you guys get here?" 

"Hmm..." (I can't think of anything! halp!), dad said, "we walked, (me facepalming myself) but so many demigods together can attract monsters," 

"How did you guys get here?" Mr Potter asked. Everybody looked at each other. 

"Umm...nevermind that, is there any other way we could travel?" I quickly changed the subject,

"we could apparate?" Ms Potter(Did Ginny change her last name??) said, "but it might make you sick,"

"no apparating!" Lily decided, "never again in my life! how could you-"

"apparating it is," Mr Potter finalized, 

"How do you apparate?" I asked them, "Is it scary?"

"No, well at first it is," Ms Potter said, "but it's not really that scary, and to apparate, since only Harry and I can, everybody hold hands," 

The circle went like, Me, then Lily to my left, Albus to her left, James to his left, Mr Potter at the end. And to my right I was holding dad's hand, then mom, then Ms Potter. 

And then the world went black. I was in the air, and for a second I couldn't breathe. The air was around me and it most definitely was scary. It lasted for a second, and then we were back atthe hotel. 

The second we reached the living room, I collapsed onto the sofa. 

"How is THAT not scary?" I questioned Ms Potter, she just shrugged. 

"That's a little bit like shadow travelling," Dad said, he was not even surprised, "Now, I'm just going to keep Silena on the sofa here," he said, placing her on the couch. 

"Now, since we don't want to get too stressed," Ms Potter said, "we're just going to pretend we don't have an unconcious person in the living room, and do normal activities,"

"What-But-How?" I stuttered, 

"Zoe, go to your, I mean yeah, your room," Mom ordered. 

"But-fine!" I gave in, and left to the room, grumbling. The others followed me, talking about something, but I couldn't care less. 

I went back to my room. It was honestly a mess, the beanbags were lying around the floor, the books were on the floor, and sketchpens and markers without caps had made stains on the carpet.

"Who was in my room again?"

"The boys," Lily answered, before either of them could open their mouths,

"Okay, so you're cleaning this while Lily and I get cookies," I said, and grabbed Lily's wrist, dragging her away from the bedroom. 

"Mom, I need help making cookies!" I called, mom rushed over, and asked,

"Cookies?"

"Well, we need to keep ourselves entertained in some way Mrs Jackson," Lily said, politely, but she was still grinning. 

After a lot of blue food colouring, dough, water spills, and burns, we finally had some blue cookies ready. 

"Thanks, mom!" I said, lifting the tray and bringing it to the room. Luke was relaxing on the bed, reading while Albus and James actually did the work.

"Guys, you do know we were joking, right?" I asked them, looking at Lily,

"what do you mean you were joking?" James asked,

"I mean, you didn't have to clean it, and I was just kidding when I said that," I clarified. They both sighed,

"Really?" Albus asked, I nodded, "so-"

Mom entered the room,

"Silena's awake!" she whispered excitedly, "she's awake, Zoe,"

For a second, I was frozen, but then I rushed to the living room. And there she was. She was alive and she was awake. And she was still my sister.
