I was too lazy to write the diagon alley trip so imma skip to the train. Peace ✌🏻

~Piper~

"So we're going to London now. I guess that this will be fun."

Staring outside of the window, looking at the clear blue sky and the fluffy white clouds, everything looks gorgeous. Nothing should look gorgeous or even pretty. Annabeth is gone and I'm stuck with the she devil that was the reason for her absence. I glance over at Percy, who being comforted by Hazel. I'm sorta glad that he's sad, I'd rather him be sad than angry. If he had been angry over the last few weeks, I don't think that there would be a camp half blood, or a camp Jupiter for that matter. I feel a gentle hand on my shoulder and look up to see Jason looking at me with concern. I open my arms and he envelopes me in a warm hug. He smells like a fresh summer breeze and that makes me think of all the fun I used to have with Annabeth . Jason's shirt suddenly feels wet and I realise that I'm crying. I hastily try to wipe the tears away but Jason beats me to it. I hear snort of laughter behind me so I turn around and glare at whoever was laughing.

It was lily.

Of course it was.

Percy gets up and starts walking towards her slowly, his face completely clear of emotions. Lily sits up straight and beams. When Percy was standing right in front of her, she leans forward and he grabs her throat. She starts to gag.

"Why were you laughing just now."

She starts clawing at his hands.

"Percy," I said "She needs her voice to talk. Let go of her."

I put a little bit of charmspeak into the command and Percy immediately lets go of lily. She hunches over, trying to catch her breath. When she straightens up, she looks at me with gratitude.

"Why were you laughing, lunar?"

I lay the charmspeak heavily on those words and her eyes glaze over.

"I was laughing because you were crying over a stupid b****. You all saved Olympus and saw dozens of people die and you're crying over someone who isn't even dead, I mean come on!"

The charmspeak wears off and a look of horror replaces her neutral expression. Everyone is staring at her with absolute hatred. Nico starts radiating death while Frank, Hazel and Jason stand up, drawing their weapons.

"Stop."

A simple command, but everyone freezes in their tracks. I swallow my own hatred for Lily because this quest might mean that we'll see Annabeth again.

"I know you all want to throw her into Tartarus, but she's apart of the quest. And this quest has to play out, we might get to see Annabeth."

Grumbling, everyone sits back down and glares daggers at Lily. She looks down at the floor and for the next half hour or so we all stay like that until a cool female voice crackles through the speakers.

"Ladies and gentlemen of camp half blood and camp Jupiter, welcome to London."

Time skip

~Harry~

Walking to the magical barrier feels so surreal. I never thought that we'd come back after the war. Hermione, Ron and I approach the station with confidence. Around platform 4, a group of American teenagers in purple and orange shirts are arguing.

"I'm telling you Leo! The border is around here! Hecate said it would be!"

"And I'm telling you Piper! There is no sign of a secret platform!"

"Leo, Piper, stop arguing. People are starting to notice."

"Nice going Grace. Now where is this magic platform nine and three quarters?"

I stop in my tracks. I motion for Ron and Hermione to follow me and we head towards the Americans. I tap the shoulder of one of the guys with his back to us. He spins around so fast that he's a blur. He pulls out a pen, wow, so dangerous. He relaxes when he sees us but he eyes our luggage. He's starting to make me nervous. The Americans looked so different from each other but they all seemed to have a bond that only family would have.

Family

That thought resonates with my very core, something that I have always wanted. I shake myself out of my daze and stare into the eyes of the guy I had taped. He had intense sea green eyes, but they were broken. They looked like they had stared into hell.

"Er, hi. I'm Harry Potter."

The Americans stare at me. What a great introduction from me! To be honest, I kinda expected some fangirling, not a bunch of muscular teens staring at me. I thought about the years I had spent fighting Voldemort, I was almost killed several times and now I couldn't even talk to a group of eight teens?

"We, uh, heard your argument and we, uh, we wanted to show you the way to platform nine and three quarters."

The boy with sea green eyes relaxed and put his pen away. He sticks his hand out.

"Percy Jackson."

I shake it.

"Well you already know my name. This is Ron and Hermione."

I turn around and see Hermione blushing and Ron staring at the pretty one. What was her name? Oh yeah, Piper.

Percy turns around and points at his friends one at a time and they introduce themselves.

"Jason."

"Piper."

"Hazel."

"Frank."

"Nico."

"Leo."

He points at all of them except for one girl with long red hair and mesmerising green eyes.

"Uh, Percy? You didn't introduce her."

I point to the redhead. Percy urns around and his easygoing smile turns into a scowl. The redhead shrinks into the wall and I find it uncool that Percy's scaring her. Then I look around and see the others glaring at her.

"Lily. Lily Lunar."

Percy spits out her name like venom. He turns back around and gives me a forced smile.

"Come on Harry, lets go to platform nine and three quarters."

~Annabeth~

Oh Gods, I'm panicking. I'm at kings cross station and I have no idea of where to go. I hate not knowing. I decide to wander around and I come to platform nine and platform ten. I look like I'm insane , wandering around the two platforms. The guard walks up to me and I stand around nervously.

"Now look here missy. If you're not going to board a train, you best be moving along."

"No sir! You misunderstand! I was, uh, waiting for my friends!"

He doesn't look convinced. Then I spot them, a group of eleven. Eight of which were from camp half blood and camp Jupiter.

"There they are! Bye officer!"

I rush off and meet the demigods. I tap Pipers shoulder and she turns around. She lets out a gasp of surprise.

"A-A-Annabeth?"

The rest of the demigods gasp and spin around. The three I don't know turn and study me. It tears me apart that I can't tell them but I have to keep up my false identity. I switch to Greek because Hecate gave me strict instructions not to reveal my parentage.

"Syngnómi, den eímai Annampeth. To ónomá mou eínai Alexándra Noimosýni, kóri tou Athiná."

Translation: Sorry, I'm not Annabeth. my name is Alexandra Noimosýni, daughter of Athena

They all look at me with confusion except for Piper, Percy, Leo, Nico and Lily. Their eyes sadden, except for Lily's. Her eyes glitter with triumph. I shake my head and turn to the trio of who I'm guessing are wizards. I stick my hand out towards the wizards.

"Alexandra Noimosýni, nice to meet you....."

The guy with glasses steps out and shakes my hand.

"Harry. Harry Potter."

I smile at him and drop my hand. I turn to the girl with bushy hair. She smiles at me.

"Hermione Granger."

I turn to the other redhead.

"Ron, Ron Weasley."

"Nice to meet you three. Now don't we have a train to catch?"

It was ten thirty but it's better safe than sorry. The twelve of us set of and stop at the wall with a number 9 on it. Harry casually strolls through the wall with his ginormous cart and simply disappears. Hermione and Ron follow him and one at a time the demigods walk through until it's just Percy and me. Percy stares at me longingly.

"So, Alexandra. Have you met a girl named Annabeth anywhere?"

He asks me with his puppy eyes and even though he was the one who cheated on me, I still love him. I hate lying to all of them (well, except for Lily.) but I have too.

"No, sorry. But I know that she was mum's favourite daughter."

Percy looks heartbroken. He turns and walks straight through the barrier, leaving me alone. I hesitate for a minute before striding through the wall.
