Chapter Six- The Student Who Cried Werewolf
I'm back from the dead peoples. I just hit a rough spot and got some major writers block, but I am back!
-<=>- Jason -<=>-
Jason actually slept good last night. No nightmares, or "dreams", or anything. Which was very suspicious.
When he woke up, he looked out the window and saw that the sun just started rising. The sunrise was a beautiful array of colors of red, orange, yellow, and pink.
He wasn't sure if he should be awake yet, as no one else was. But then, some kind of alarm beeped from downstairs, and the Wizards shot up.
"Bloody hell!" Ron whisper-yelled.
Jason frowned. He did cuss a little in Latin, but he still didn't like it.
"Morning." Harry nodded.
Jason looked at Frank, Percy, and Leo. Frank was fast asleep snoring (thank the gods he didn't change forms in his sleep) with his feet almost dangling off the edge of the bed, Leo was curled up in a ball under his sheets, and Percy was sucking his thumb.
"Hey guys!" Jason took his pillow and threw it at Frank.
Frank shot straight up, hitting his head. Leo, trapped in a ball of sheets, fell off the bed. Percy quickly removed his thumb from his mouth, and grabbed his pen out from under the pillow screaming "Monster!"
Ron snorted behind Jason. "You keep a pen under your pillow to fight against a monster?"
Percy glared, and seemed like he was about to uncap Riptide, but Jason intervened. "Okay! Let's get this morning started!"
-<=>-
After some struggling to get up and ready, they all got down to the Common Room.
The girls were there, too, looking like they had a much better morning.
"Hey." Percy wrapped his arms around Annabeth.
Frank and Hazel hugged, which looked weird, considering he was twice her size.
"Good morning." Piper and Jason hugged and kissed.
"Okay!" Ron's brother, Percy, looked ready to start the day. "We are going to be heading down to breakfast, so everyone follow me!" And he was off.
The walk seemed shorter than it had yesterday. Probably that they were getting used to it.
When they got there, they were the first group in, so it was quieter than yesterday.
They sat down on the end near the teachers with Jason, Piper, and Leo on one side, and Percy, Annabeth, Hazel, and Frank on the other.
"Anyone else feel weird with being here?" Hazel whispered.
"Not at all." Leo winked at a group of passing girls.
"No, like, magically."
"Yeah." Jason frowned. He did feel something like a disturbance.
"Whatever." Percy said. "Let's eat!"
-<+>-
After breakfast, Jason felt queasy. He was going to classes that he knew nothing about. Plus, he was in the last year, so the classes would be hard.
"Don't be nervous." Piper smiled as they headed to their first class, Transfiguration. "I'll be right there for you."
He smiled back, and Leo clapped his shoulder. "I'll be there for you as well, Superman."
"Superman?" Hermione asked.
"Just a nickname." Annabeth said quickly.
Hermione raised an eyebrow, but didn't say anything.
Finally, they got to the class. As they filed in, they made sure that they sat near each other.
There was no talking, even though there was no teacher. However, Jason saw a black cat sitting on the teacher's desk.
"Aw, a little kitty!" Leo cooed from the front row, acting like a little girl.
Then, the cat leaped toward him, and in midair, transformed into Professor McGonagall.
"Oh, okay!" Leo hid in his seat, earning some snorts.
"I see you are one of the seven new students." She said. "Very well. Good morning, students. Today is the first day of classes, but that does not mean that we won't do any work."
A few people groaned.
She started pacing slowly. "Now, these new students have had education, so we don't have to start at a beginners level. However, we should review a few simple things."
She stopped right in front of Frank. "Frank Zhang, is it?"
~<>~ FRANK ~<>~
"Frank Zhang, is it?"
Schist.
Frank was wonder, why me?
Out of the twenty-something people in the class, she chose Frank. He was already intimidated since he knew nothing about spells, but now he was going to be embarrassed in front of the whole class.
"Frank Zhang."
Professor McGonagall's voice snapped him back into reality.
"Huh?" He said stupidly, earning a few snickers.
"I said, you must be familiar with animal transfiguration, which is transforming things into animals. Can you give us an example?"
Animal transfiguration? Well, Frank can transform into animals, but that seemed to be overdoing it.
"Um, yes." He focused on his right hand. This is a trick he's been trying to master. He can turn fully animal, but it's a little hard to turn partially.
Nevertheless, Frank concentrated, and his arm turned hairier and dark until it was a grizzly bear arm and paw.
"Splendid!" Professor McGonagall said. A lot of people in the room clapped.
"You must have a lot of talent to transform your own arm." She smiled warmly. Frank thought she would be hard, but she was really nice.
For the rest of the lesson, they learned really easy stuff. Wand motions, eye focus, and other stuff. They didn't even learn a spell, which Frank and the others were okay with. Except Annabeth. She was eager to learn.
Next class they had was Defense Against The Dark Arts with the Slytherin class. Frank remembered that this is the class that had that one teacher that Harry liked, Professor Lupin (<>Note: Lupin is still alive.)
The demigods sat together again, but this time there were tables of four (<>Note: me again. The tables weren't like this before, I just made them like this just because<>). Percabeth and Frazel sat together while Jasper and Leo sat together. Since there was one more seat at their table, the boy named Neville sat there. He kept sneaking glanced at Piper, blushing.
Uh oh. Frank thought. There's some drama there.
Meanwhile, the Wizards were sitting together, Ron, Hermione, Harry, and Ginny.
"Good morning class!" Professor Lupin walked out on the front.
"Good morning." The class said in a jumble of voices.
"It appears we have all of our new students in the class." Professor Lupin said, looking at the demigods. "Good. This will make things easier."
~<> PIPER <>~
"Good. This will make things easier." Professor Lupin said.
Piper held Jason's hand under the table. She was used to transferring to new schools, so she wasn't nervous. But she didn't know about Jason. He lived at Camp Jupiter his whole life. Then he lost his memory and went to Camp Halfblood. He knew nothing, and no one. This was just like that time. Except hopefully some diva won't flirt with Jason. Although that kid Neville has been looking at Piper...
"Weren't you kicked out because you are a werewolf?" A blonde boy asked in a smug manor.
"Draco Malfoy." Professor Lupin didn't answer. "Nice to see you here."
"You're a werewolf?" Piper asked. After meeting Lycaon, the first werewolf, and his minions, she's had enough of wolfs.
He smiled. "Yes I am. But I assure you, I am completely harmless right now."
"Oh." Harmless right now?
"On with our lesson." Professor Lupin moved on. "Now, I know that quite a few of you have mastered a Patronus Charm, but we shall go over it again. Firstly, what is a Patronus Charm?"
Both Annabeth and Hermione raised their hands, but Professor Lupin called on Hermione.
"The Patronus Charm, also known as Expecto Patronum, is an advanced spell that can ward off D-Dementors, and takes the place of an animal that bests suits you. To put it in short terms."
"Excellent! 5 points to Gryffindor."
What? Points?
"Now, usually we'd do a bunch of research and studying and reading, but we aren't going to do that." Professor Lupin said, as Annabeth frowned. "Get up, all of you, quickly."
After everyone got out of their seats and out of the way, the teacher took out his wand. He flicked it to the side, and the tables followed his movement, moved against the left wall. It left most of the room an open space.
"Okay! So we are going to get right into this. How many people know how to produce a Patronus?"
A few people raised their hands, including Harry, Hermione, Ron, Neville, and a few other Gryffindors. No Slytherin raised their hand.
"So this is going to be new to people." He said, almost excited. "This will be fun."
