A/N: This is kind of a rewrite of a previous story I had previously started, but I kind of lost interest in it because it was developing too slow. This story is going to feature a very similar plot, though without the witches and wizards reading the PJO books. It will allow the story to progress faster and get to the parts that y'all really want to read (Demigods vs. Umbridge, The actual battles, etc). Enjoy!

Disclaimer: I do not own PJO or Harry Potter. They are the property of their original authors, Rick Riordan, and JK Rawling, respectively.

Chapter 1: Dumbledore's Anouncement

Headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix

Number 12, Grimmauld Place

6:00 PM

Harry's POV:

I had just arrived at Number 12, Grimmauld Place, which was the Headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix, with Dumbledore as their leader. It also happened to be my Godfather, Sirius Black's, house. The Order had just rescued me not only from the Dursley's, but also potentially additional attacks by dementors. I shivered just thinking about them.

My friends, Ron and Hermione, as well as the rest of Ron's family, were glad to see me, especially Ron and Hermione, the latter of which was so excited that she nearly crushed me in a bone crunching hug. She was so happy tha she didn't seem to notice she was killing me slowly until Ron brought her attention back.

Don't get me wrong, I was glad to see them too, but it was short lived due to my crankiness from the events of tonight leading the Ministry to charge me with using magic outside of school and violating the Statute of Secrecy for casting a Patronus to protect myself and my cousin, who was essentially unconscious by that point, from the dementors. But they were hell bent on get me expelled from Hogwarts. And then I remembered that Ron and Hermione never sent me letters keeping me informed of what was happening. And, cue the yelling.

"I asked you two to keep me informed of what was happening! You promised me you would! How can I trust you when you were hiding valuable information from me!"

Hermione burst into tears. "We weren't hiding anything from you Harry! Professor Dumbledore told us not to send those letters because they could be intercepted! I am sorry we broke our promise though."

Ron held Hermione in a hug to help her calm down from crying, while I simply walked away. It hurt me to yell at them like that, especially once I saw Hermione crying like that. It tore me apart. But I wasn't ready to apologize, as I was too angry with them and cranky with my mind going back to the hearing. I just walked away and stayed to myself for a little bit to regain control of my emotions. A few minutes later, I went back and apologized to my friends, especially Hermione.

"Harry, we understand your stress. And you have the right to be angry. Your words stung. They really hurt me, but that's not the only thing that made me cry. It was also because I wanted to share news with you, but I wasn't allowed to, and I didn't want to be punished for sending it anyways." Hermione said, barely crying anymore. "I accept your apology." "As do I", Ron added.

Then Mrs. Weasley came in the room. "Children, Professor Dumbledore wants you all to join us in the meeting. I don't approve of it, but he says he wants to make an announcement, and he says it will have an impact on this upcoming year."

"OK Mum, we're coming", Ron replies.

We head down to the meeting while Hermione continues to dry her tears. I feel really bad for her for what I did to cause her to cry. However, I am really curious about what Dumbledore has to say.

Once we were all settled down, he stood up and began to speak.

"OK everyone. I have an announcement to make. Last year, things didn't go as planned with the Triwizard Tournament. This year, we're doing something a little different. This year, Hogwarts will be hosting some American Exchange Students. These kids are strong, strong willed, and may have a short temper, but they are good kids and they wanted to see what Hogwarts is like, so they will be staying here the whole year. I expect you children will be on your best behavior and treat them kindly and with respect. Also, they will be staying here until it is time to catch the train to Hogwarts, which they will ride on with you. Thank you. Questions?"

"Professor, how many are coming?" Hermione asked.

"There will be fourteen of them. Nine boys and five girls."

"That's a lot of exchange students, Professor Dumbledore", Hermione said.

"It is, Mrs. Granger, but don't you worry, they won't hurt you, I hope they will be able to control their tempers enough for that, though I'd really watch out for one girl, she is typically easy to anger and is unpredictable. If I knew which one, I'd tell you who it is, but I don't yet know their names. They will be arriving in the morning. Be nice to them, promise?"

"Yes Professor Dumbledore", we all chanted, with Hermione getting really excited about the exchange students. Ron and I were a bit more skeptical, but I was certainly at least going to give them a chance.
