The Only People Who Doubt Us, Are Already Labeled As Crazy

Chapter Ten: The Only People Who Doubt Us, Are Already Labeled As Crazy
Leo's P.O.V.

THE ROOM OF REQUIREMENT was amazing! It gave us just what we needed, a safe place to talk about our quest in private. Better yet, when we went in there it was designed like the Argo II.

That really cheered me up after what had happened earlier. I had gotten on my broom, I tried to steer it towards the hoops. I ended up doing a face slam into the field.

At least Angelina was really nice about it. She kind of reminds me of Thalia, nice when she wants to be and really pretty. But on the other hand she can be as fierce as lightning. Stop it Valdez! You have a girlfriend now, remember!

"So," Piper said snapping me back to reality(Stupid ADHD). "What are our main priorities for the quest?"

"Not to be revealed." Nico muttered.

"That's going to be hard." Annabeth said, "Trelawney and Potter can see through the mist."

"Didn't Hecate say she used the strongest mist she could conjure?" I said.

"Yep." Nico says.

"Well, at least people think that they're both crazy." I say, "I mean not many people believe Potter and his Voldemort theory. Trelawney has apparently always been messed up in the head. Wednesday she told me I was going to die in a ball of blazing fire that blasts me out of the sky."

"Didn't you already die of an onager that blasted you out of the sky?" Percy said.

"Duh." I say with a stupid smile.

"Back to the part about Harry and the crazy professor seeing through the mist." Said Piper, "Weren't we going to iris message Hecate?"

"Oh yeah." Percy mutters.

All of a sudden a giant fountain appears in the middle of the room. At the bottom of the fountain are drachmas(AN is that the correct spelling?).

"Well," Percy says as he walks over to the fountain. He picks up a coin and says, "Oh fleecy, do me a solid. Show me Lady Hecate at Mt. Olympus." The mist shimmered and the goddess Hecate appeared.

"Hello demigods. How is your quest going?" Hecate asks.

"We have a slight problem." Piper replies as she explains how Harry and the professor are immune to the mist.

"I was afraid of that." The goddess muttered.

"What?" Nico asked.

"I can't fix it. Harry and Sybill are immune to the mist. I cannot help you."

"But how are we supposed to succeed in our quest if Harry knows that we aren't supposed to be here." Piper says in frustration.

"I have no idea. But you must try your hardest to help protect him." Hecate says as she puts her hand through the mist and it disappeared.

"It's getting late." Annabeth said, "We should head back to the common room." She was right, but of course she's always right. So we headed back to our assigned dormitories.

The weekend passed quickly. Most of my time was spent in the Room of Requirement either talking, doing homework, or studying. By Sunday evening I thought my brain was about to explode with so much studying, so I decided to head back to the common room.

I saw Hermione, Ron, and Harry talking by the window and walked towards them.

"Hey, people." I said with a goofy grin, "What's up?"

"Ron is trying to get my extra help on homework." Hermione muttered, "So where have you been all this weekend? We haven't seen you."

"Well," I said. "I've just been roaming the castle here and there. According to Annabeth, 'The architecture never gets old.' Even after seven years." I rolled my eyes.

"Who's that?" Ron says changing the subject, pointing to the window. I turn to see what he is on about. A beautiful screech owl perched on the windowsill, gazing around the room until his eyes landed on Ron.

"Isn't that Hermes?" said Hermione, sounding amazed.

I snorted, "Who would name their owl Hermes?"

"I dunno." Ron said, "My git of a brother, Percy."

He snatched the letter out of 'Hermes' beak, tearing the envelope open revealing a scroll of parchment(I have currently learned what parchment is.). Ron unrolled the scroll and began to read. The farther down the parchment his eyes traveled, the more angry his facial expression read. When he had finished reading, he looked disgusted. He thrust the letter at Harry and Hermione, who leaned toward each other to read it together.

"What does it say?" I asked Ron. He cut me a look that said, 'not right now'.

I decided to go up to the dormitory to get some rest for tomorrow. I have to admit I was really tired.

* * *

When I woke up I saw that it wasn't very late, probably somewhere around midnight. I stood up and looked around the dormitory. Everyone was asleep in their beds, except Harry and Ron. I inched quietly down the stairs to the common room room and heard about four voices; Harry, Ron, Hermione, and a low voice from a man I didn't recognize.

"NO." Hermione and Harry said together very loudly. I almost lost my balance and fell down the rest of the stairs.

"Sirius, didn't you see the Daily Prophet?" said Hermione anxiously.

"Oh that," said the unknown man named Sirius. "They're always guessing where I am, they haven't really got a clue -"

The four of them kept talking. "Well, I'd better get going, I can hear Kreacher coming down the stairs," Sirus says finally. "I'll write to tell you a time I can make it back into the fire, then, shall I? If you can stand to risk it?" Back into the fire? What does he mean by that?

The fire crackled and the voices went silent. I ran up to the dormitory as quickly as I could, and as quiet as I could. Which is really saying something, I'm usually as loud as a screaming Coach Hedge without even trying.

Once I was in my bed, I quickly threw the blankets over my head as I heard the door creak open and following footsteps of Harry and Ron. Now the question is: What were they doing talking to one of their friends in the common room at midnight?

Me: I do not own any of the characters. All characters either belong to Rick Riordan or J.K. Rowling.
Harry: Who are Rick Riordan and J.K. Rowling?
Me: Well you see, they're the authors that-
Sadie: Sup guys?
Me: Sadie!? What are you doing here?
Carter: That's a good question. Today SADIE was supposed to be training the initiates while I had MY day off!
Sadie: I have no clue what you're talking about. You must be getting delusional. Oh, wait, you already were.
Carter: Grr...
Jenna: SEP!!! THE PALACE TURNED INTO CHOCOLATE AGAIN!!!!! WHEN CAN I SEE MARCIA AND GET HER TO REVERSE IT?!?!?!?!?!
Septimus: DUNNO!!! LET ME ASK HER!!!!! YOU SHOULD REALLY GET RID OF THAT CHARM!!!
Peeta: No! Katniss! Stop shooting all the cupcakes!
Thalia: Perseus Jackson you are SO dead!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Percy:Not if you can't catch me! Ha!
Annabeth: PERCY!!!
Percy: OH GODS NO IT'S ANNABETH, AND SHE'S ANGRY! AHHHH!!!!!
Travis/Connor/Leo: RUN, PERCY, RUN!
Four: No! MY DAUNTLES CAKE!!!! Hissssssss!!!
Harry: ...........WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE?!?!?!?!?!?
Skipper: *Suddenly appears in a poof of smoke** Does his thing* YOU DIDN'T SEE ANY THING........
Harry: 0.0

Also, people who keep wondering if I am in the Septimus Heap Fandom - I'm actually not at the moment, but that series is on my to-do list. Unfortunately my to-do list is as long Light Yagami's kill list. Sorry.
