Percy dashed into the meeting room. " I'm not late!" He cried. And he wasn't, not really. He was only a few seconds late. Okay maybe a few minutes.
   " Percy. Glad you could join us," Chiron smiled. Was it possible that he was picking up sarcasm? Percy flushed red. He past down in his seat.
   " Anyways, as I was saying. Nine of you will be going on a quest."
   " Nine?"
   " That's three times the usual amount!"
   " What the heck?"
   " Nine. Wow. Okay." Were only a few of the response from the twenty or so counselors. Chiron raised a hand.
   " I know it seems like a lot, but when charged with keeping four hundred people safe, you'll find that it's barely enough." Yeah, he was definitely picking up sarcasm.
   " Chiron... What exactly are we doing?" Percy asked slowly.
   " You... We have been charged with protecting Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry." Everything was silent as they contemplated what he just said. You could hear a pin drop, which is exactly what happened. Something Connor Stoll had been holding dropped and you could hear it fall on the carpeted floor. That broke the silence, and hushed whispers (and some giggles) broke out all over the room. Chiron stomped his hoof.
   " Silence! Now... This is going to be a difficult task. Listen closely. Nine of you will be entering Hogwarts disguised as students. Your job is to protect the school from the dangers coming. It won't be another war, so don't worry about that. The school had a war, nineteen years ago. And it can stand strong against much. But this is going to be something you have to take care of for them. Monster attacks have been happening around, in, and near the school. And not just any monsters, monsters like a Chimera, Kampê, automatons..."
   " Now, the people going are Percy, Annabeth, Jason, Piper, Leo, Calypso, Aria, Aaron, and Nico. Frank and Reyna are praetors, as you know, and Hazel has opted to stay behind. Another thin. We have a limited budget, so you each get 15 Galleons, 10 Sickles, and 5 Knuts to start with. However, all your school supplies have been bought. The only things you have to get are pets - if you want - andwands. You will also need to stop by Madame Malkin's shop to be fitted. That's all. You can leave."
   Chiron rolled himself away. Slowly, everyone started leaving, until it was just the five of us who were at Camp Half Blood.
   " How do you think Octavian would've reacted to wizards? If he hated Greeks so much, I mean," Piper said.
   We all looked at each other then cracked up. Except Aria.
   " Octavian's like that dude who was manipulated by Gaea and cannon balled into the air, right?" She asked. Annabeth said yes and she nodded. " Gotcha."
