The Ghost King Goes to Hogwarts

Prophecy Time

"Yeah, since she has the gift a prophecy too we've been exchanging notes since the oracle hasn't been working." Rachel filled in, in a sad voice. Hearing her talk and seeing her like this made me feel really bad, like I wanted to go punch that stupid father of hers for making her go to that fancy lady school. 

It had been a couple months since the oracle stopped working, we assumed it was because of Apollo getting in trouble with Zeus. But now we didn't have any prophecies which meant no quests. 

"I know Rachel but let's just try again. We need one since Nicole has been issued a quest by two gods which is quite an important task." Chiron told her.

"Yeah, babysitting a little kid is such an important task isn't it." Nikki muttered, I chuckled a little. 

"I mean you can try but I highly doubt anything's gonna happen." Rachel said grimly. I smiled, it was common knowledge for any demigod that by saying something like that the fates liked to break the laws of nature, which is why we try not to jinx ourselves. Though this was a good jinx. 

"Okay Nicole..." Chiron urged. Nikki got up with a groan just as Rachel lazily sat back on her Oracle stool thing. 

"Oh great Oracle of Delphi, I have come to ask you for guidance in my quest in protecting the prophecy child and aiding him in destroying Moldyvort." Nikki chanted in a monotone. 

The was a pretty long silence.

"See nothing. I told y-" Rachel started but then she doubled over then sat up as straight as a board her eyes glowing a serpent green.

I guess the Oracle was back.

Nikki POV

No. No. No. No. Please no. I don't want a prophecy!

I really just wanted Rachel to go back to normal now and say "SIKE SUCKERS!" but alas her mouth opened and her voice echoed around the cave.

"The daughter of Hades is sent to face
A formidable foe and severe risk
In Hecate's domain, a magical place
The Angel must do this with extreme brisk

Her ray of sun will only appear, when
The threat of this year removes it's cover
There will be three challenges she must win
To save this new world and every other

Her first love has broke Thanatos' laws
He's become the most evil of his race
And for this he must pay, he leads the cause
The ghost needs to eliminate someday

She stands between the world and destruction
The world's fate rests on her one deduction."

Then she fell collapsed onto Luna. I turned around to see Will looking like he just heard my death warrant and started swaying, I caught him before he fell and set him down on the couch. I asked him what was wrong but he didn't reply. Everyone was silent, looking horrified. But i didn't get why. I mean, sure it worse than one of Apollo's haikus but it wasn't that back. (*Sigh* Don't lie Nikki, it was that bad. This is why I don't right poems)

Then someone finally spoke up.

"Wow. You're dead." Said a voice from the entrance of the cave. I turned to see Apollo standing there. Yes, Apollo, god of the sun, medicine, poetry, music, and who know's what else. My heart started pounding extremely fast like it always did in a gods presence and I fell to one knee and looked at the ground.

"L-Lord Apollo. It's an honor having you here but um... what does that mean?" I asked knowing it was probably not a good sign when the god of prophecy says you're dead. 

"Oh I see what your father means about feeling guilty. Please get up I don't like this feeling." Apollo squirmed, I stood to face him. "You know you an just do a quick bow or something, right? Not kneel before us like were about to hit you or some- Ohhh. So, that's how Good Ol' Hades let's out his anger, huh?" Apollo asked sympathetically. I didn't meet his eyes. And he sighed.

"Well, to answer your question do you know what that was?" He questioned, changing subject which I was glad for.

"Um... a prophecy?" I replied not really knowing what to say. Apollo raised an eyebrow. 

"No it was... a... sonnet..." He whispered dramatically. It was my turn to raise an eyebrow. 

"And..."

"And?! And sonnets are the worse types of prophecies! They basically are there to tell you to accept your imminent doom. " Apollo explained tiredly. 

"Oh." I said. I honestly really didn't care at the moment but from everyone's looks that was the wrong thing to say.

"OH?! Nikki I'm not letting you go! As your older cousin I forbid you from going on this quest!" Thalia announced.

"Yeah! I can't protect you from a prophecy!! So you can't go!" Clarisse added. 

"Heroes, listen, she can't not go on this quest. Whatever awaits her on this quest is better than disobeying the gods." Chiron told them reasonably but even he seemed unsure. 

"Y-You know what. Let's just figure this out. We can work this out. Like-Like an equation." Annabeth muttered to no one in particular. then she grabbed a notepad from her back pocket and a pencil and started writing.

"So let's work this out. The first stanza:

The daughter of Hades is sent to face
A formidable foe and severe risk
In Hecate's domain, a magical place
The Angel must do this with extreme brisk

Basically means that Nikki is going to have to go to this Wizarding world and face Moldavort, and she must do what Hecate told her to do quickly. Then the second stanza:

Her ray of sun will only appear, when
The threat of this year removes it's cover
There will be three challenges she must win
To save this new world and every other

Means... Well I'm guessing her ray of sunshine is Solace. Which means he's going to but only when the real threat is revealed. And it says the threat of this year so maybe  that also means this is only the prophecy for this year too... The threat seems to be three challenges, and she has to win these challenges to succeed in her quest. Then the third stanza:

Her first love has broke Thanatos' laws
He's become the most evil of his race
And for this he must pay, he leads the cause
The ghost needs to eliminate someday

Well... does that mean Will is evil? Nikki's going to have kill him? What?" Annabeth started working it out, out loud but when she said this I was honestly confused too. This said that Will has broken the laws of Death? He's the most evil demigod? No that can't be right... then what else could it mean.

"Nikki what does that mean? Even if Solace is a pain in the butt and isn't good enough for you, I don't think he's a villain... Right Solace?" Annabeth asked, more confidently than before which I assume was because she went into her logical mode. Will looked up from the couch, his face pale , and his eyes wide in shock.

"Huh?" He said hoarsely, looking like he was about to cry. 

"She asked if you're evil idiot!" Clarisse shot at him in rage. I knew whenever she felt any sad emotion she would redirect her energy to being mad, hence her destroying a drakon in pure rage from loosing Silena.

"I don't think I am..." He muttered, then looked at me. His eyes looked so sad as though I he was looking at my corpse, I guess this was pretty bad.

"Well then Nikki... who would this be talking about?" Annabeth questioned. At first I had no idea but then it hit me like a brick. 

"No... it couldn't mean... not him... no..." I whispered to myself, taking a couple steps back. I started shaking, I knew what was about to happen. "No! Not this again... please-" But it was no use. I was pulled into my memories. 

My memories of the orphanage.
