Different Worlds (Harry Potter | Percy Jackson Crossover)

Chapter 21: Man-to-Man Talk

NOTE: Thank you for all the votes guys, I really appreciate it. :) All I'm doing now is finding a cast for Shadow Malfoy and Ashton Lenz. Oh, and by the way, this will just be a filler chapter. It's short.

DIVERGENT WAS AWESOME. Although, they didn't follow the book mostly. *BIG HEAVY SIGH* I wanted to see who Uriah was. I have taken a liking to his personality and him. Sadly, they didn't cast him, Zeke, Shauna, Lynn, and Marlene.

Disclaimer: There are some parts in this chapter which I got from the Goblet of Fire. I'd just like to remind you that I don't own any of the Harry Potter or Percy Jackson characters. All credits go to J.K. Rowling and Rick Riordan.

-State: Dream-

*Empire State Building*

~Nico's POV~

--

"W-Wha-? Where am I?" I asked myself, my voice echoing around a familiar lobby. These designs, gold and ancient, this could only be the Empire State Building. But wait a minute, wasn't I sleeping in the Gryffindor Boys' Dormitory in Hogwarts? How could I be here? New York is so far from London.

"Hey!" a cheerful voice of a boy greeted me. "Nico di Angelo, right?"

I turned a full three hundred and sixty degrees and found the young man on my left. I stared at his features. His shaggy, brown hair, rather pale face, and warm smile - it was Shadow's. At least he reminded me of her. Except his eyes. His were blue, while Shadow's were electric green.

Due to too much thinking, I didn't notice that he was now right in front of me, smiling goofily and waving a hand all over my face.

"Hellooooooo?" he sang. "Is Nico di Angelo's soul in there?"

"O-Oh yeah," I said, regaining my composure. "Yeah, I'm Nico di Angelo."

"That's great," he said cheerfully, but examined me afterward. "Hmm. You're good enough for her. I need to get to know you more, first, but we'll do that some other time."

"Wait, her? Which her?" I asked, confused.

"My sister, Charlie, of course!" he said. "Charlotte, actually. I gave her the nickname 'Charlie'."

What? Is this dude a lunatic? I don't know any Charlotte.

"Uhm, sir," I said, trying to sound polite, "I'm sorry, but I don't know anyone named Charlotte. I think you have the wrong guy."

"No, of course I have the right guy," he said, giving me a noogie. "You just don't call her Charlotte. You know her as Shadow. Shadow Malfoy, my sister and your girlfriend!" he announced happily.

I was completely speechless. Okay, is this guy drunk? I'm pretty sure this is a dream and I will strangle which ever god or goddess set me up on this prank. Shadow is Shadow. Nothing more, nothing less. Shadow, not Charlotte. And she doesn't have a brother.

"Still don't believe me, don't ya?" he asked, reading my mind. "Will you believe me if you see this?" He pulled out a locket he was wearing inside his shirt and opened it, revealing him and a 3 year-old Shadow smiling and happier than ever.

"O-Okay, please tell me this is a stupid dream," I groaned, rubbing my palm on my forehead.

"It is a dream, all right," the guy said cheekily. "Believe me noooow?"

"Yeah, sure," I said reluctantly. Although I hate to admit it, I truly believe this guy. His similar features to Shadow were something, but now that he showed me solid proof that they're siblings, I believe him. But why wouldn't Shadow tell me about this? Is it possible that she didn't know? Or probably she didn't like talking about it.
