It has started
Pov. Ron
The moment Percy spoke in my mind, I felt confident. Like he gave me hope or strength or something. As soon as the bull guy was gone, the feeling disappeared. Percy smiled at me, I nodded back.
My brother, my sister and I looked at the three cousins, waiting for an explanation.
"George, snacks can wait for later! Just start at the beginning." Ginny scolded. Oops, I missed something!
Thalia smirked.
"Okay, what do you know about greek and roman mythology?" Nico asked.
"We know it is ancient and that the god Hecate blessed our people a long time ago." Ginny answered.
"First, Hecate is a goddess so, I wouldn't call her a god again which leads us to the second part. You better don't ever call them myths because they are dam real." Percy says. Thalia grins slapping Percy's shoulder. I want to protest but the daring look in his eyes makes me believe him, hell, he just makes me believe.
"This can be seen as something positives but besides Gods, the myths also had?" Percy asks.
"Monsters." George answers. The cousins nods.
"The monsters are real too and you better not say their names, because names are dangerous." Nico explains.
"But those monsters don't die, you can make them explode, but they will always return. In legends those monsters also had to be taken down. Or else a lot more people would have died." Percy continues.
"You talk about heroes, like Theseus, Achilles and Hercules?" I ask.
"Hercules is no hero, he is a stupid jerk!" Percy yells before he calms down and smiles.
"But yeah, like those. What were they?"
"Demigods, offsprings of the Gods."
"Aye, and that's where we come in." Percy smirks.
"You're demigods?" I shouted. Percy smirked.
"Say it louder maybe." If that wasn't sarcasm, I don't know what is.
"But yeah, do you think that Gods would change their way of living." Thalia finishes.
"But, there is a reason we didn't tell you in the beginning, some thing are ment to kept as a secret. So keep it a secret!" Nico glares at us. We nod swiftly. "Who are you guys offsprings of?" Ginny asks.
Thalia straightens. "Thalia, daughter of Zeus, lieutenant of Artemis at your service." She mocks a bow. Nico also straightens. "Nico Di Angelo, son of Hades and Ambassador of Pluto."
"Wil Solace, son of Apollo." The blonde said. I forgot he was here honestly. "I'm just a witch, don't look at me." Mme Jackson smiles. We all look at Percy. "Son of Poseidon, champion of Hestia."
"Amazing, but now, tell me about those snacks." George laughs.
"Let us tell you a story of halfbloods who survived two wars." Percy smirks when he leans forwards.
An hour later we heared all the stories and blimey, they went through much.
"Now, what do we tell the others?" Sally asks.
"We can help." Luna says. We all stare at her in shock. Neville stands at her side.
"How did you enter?" I ask.
"Oh, a few moments ago, we know this already, Sally told us like 3 hours ago!" She smiles
"Well, less people to worry about!" Percy says joyfully. On that moment McGonagall runs through the doors.
"We have gotten a letter of Macaber!"
Before somebody could react Percy was outside the doors.
"Why is this so important?" Ginny asks. Thalia and Nico look at each other. Then their eyes widen. "Cyelle!" They exclaim and they run outside the room.
"Come on children, let's go towards the great hall, I bet they will tell you later." When everybody is outside the room I turned towards Mme Jackson.
"Sally? Why does Percy react like that?" When I asked her this, she visibly deflated.
"Percy was abused when he was a child, nobody else knows but I have a feeling Thalia and Nico do. He saved Cyelle from a guy who abused her to. She may flinch away from other boys but Percy became an irreplaceable big brother. And at this moment, she is captured by Macaber, so how would you react?" She says with a small smile.
"Why does no one know about this?"
"He keeps it to himself, I just found out myself a few months ago." She answers. "Please don't tell anyone." She begs
I nodd. "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."
We make our way towards the great hall. Hermione walks towards me.
"Where were you?"
"Later, first food." I say when I ogle the delicious meals on the table.
"Only you Ron."
Two figures take place next to us. Thalia and Nico, they look grim.
"What happened?"
"The message contained some information about Cyelle and Percy knew with one look where they were and disappeared without a trace."
"How?"
"Vapor Travel." And with that they went towards McGonagall.
"Students, If I may, You might know about the prophecy spilled sometime ago. And you know of Macaber, but you don't know who he is don't you?"
We stayed silent.
"I knew I forgot to look it up." I heard Hermione wisper.
"Macaber is unfortunately very young, he was named Magnus Sulferic Morgan Jack ..." She hesitated, "Dumbledore. He was a cousin of Albus Dumbledore."
The whole hall broke into whispers. But I couldn't speak a word. My mouth was hanging open and my brain was black, like some huge black hole took place and made all my thoughts disappear.
"I'm quite sure that you all met the three cousins."
George coughed "big three". Thalia and Nico smirked.
"And that you all have questions for them. They are willing to answer but only when Percy is back."
"Where has he gone to professor?" A Ravenclaw student asked.
"Macaber had sent a letter. The letter described a torture from a little girl and she is family of mister Jackson. Sort of, adopted family. Percy is rescuing her."
The whole hall was quiet. Nobody could say a thing. They were all shocked, hell, even I was.
"The prophecy started, didn't it?" Luna asked.
"Indeed Miss Lovegood. Students, I ask you to go to your rooms. Hopefully, Percy will be back by then."
Just then a shimmering waterveil (?) Appeared before us.
We saw a dark place with three people. The third hidden from the others.
Sorry for the very late update, but I didn't want that the explanation of th Greek Gods would be cliché. And school is killing me lately...
I understand if you hate me but I hope I could make it exciting enough and make the long wait worth it.
Arrivederci!!! Xx
