Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate.

Percy POV 

We were on our way to Potions when a sort of magical speaker told us to go the front of the school. I followed Annabeth and the rest of our group to the front, when we got there we were told that the other schools that were competing in the Triwizard tournament  were coming today. After a while a big ship started coming towards us, almost everybody was impressed but our group wasn't because the Argo 2 looked way cooler. Soon after carriages being pulled by Pegasi came our way. After they all landed the Pegasi all bowed at me causing everybody to look confused, I just waved my hand in dismiss and the Pegasi all stood up. A lot of people started whispering about it as all of the schools walked into the great hall. They let Hogwarts sit down but they told us to stay standing with the two other schools. First Durmstrang went in doing some stuff to show strength then came in Beaxbatons (I really don't know how to spell that), doing some dances that involved butterfly's? Next was our turn we decided to do sword fighting so Jason and I just fought our way in ending with me over powering him. Our friends at the Slytherin table cheered us on while we walked to our seats. When we got there Dumbledore announced that only people over 16 may enter the contest. When he was done Annabeth stood up.

"None of us are over 14, but you told us that we could have a champion." She said, knowing we could get in, because we were all actually like 18 but Hecate made us look like we were 14.

"You all can just choose a champion right now, as you will not be able to cross the age line" he responded.

"We choose Percy Jackson" She smiled, causing me to choke on my water.

"What, we never spoke about this?" I asked questioningly.

"Well your champion" She retorted as she sat down, causing lots of people in the great hall to gasp looking at me for my reaction, but I just went back to eating.

A week later

We were all gathered once again in the great hall for the choosing of the champions, everybody was talking loudly until Dumbledore cleared his throat and read the names coming out of the fire.

"Fleur Delacour, Victor Krum, Perseus Jackson, and Cedric Diggory" he said  but then another name came out of the fire.

"Harry Potter" 

"All champions go to the back room" said Dumbledore.

 I smiled because our plan for Harry in the Triwizard Tournament was going just as planned. I kissed Annabethin the forehead and followed the other champions to the back room. When I got  to the back room I introduced myself to the other champions. Harry kept glaring at me and finally yelled.

"How come this-this, death eater is in the tournament" he screamed 

"I'm not a death eater" I sneered knowing vey well that I was but grandfather had decided against giving me and my friends the dark mark.

"Then what's that on your forearm" he yelled

"None of your business" I snapped 

"If you aren't then why do you have a mark on your arm, your friends talk about stabbing people and a boy named Octavian that is dead, and the sorting hat said that you killed your grandfather and great-grandmother" at his last remark everybody turned to look at me.

"First of all the mark is a tatto that I had to get, second you could have misheard my friends, third Octavian is dead but it's not your business to know why, nor is knowing about my relatives lives" I sneer

I smirk, then turn back to the proffesers who then start to explain the rules. When their done explaining the rules I head back to the Slytherin common room. When I get to the room there are streamers and balloons everywhere, everybody starts clapping when they see me. I smile and go    sit on the couch. We all have a small party because the teachers put cameras in the common room after finding out that we have party's. After a while Annabeth pulls me into our common room and we have a full blown party. After a while we all get drunk, and stay up all night and have fun.
