"State your name."

"No."

"No? Please cooperate with us, or we will be forced to."

Percy was struggling with the ropes, which seemed to get tighter the more he moved around. It wasn't his fault, dam it, it was ADHD!

He squirmed around and observed the woman in front of him. She was interrogating him, for about an hour now. What could he say, except that he was a tough nut to crack?

The woman put down her scroll, and what looked like to be a quill. She sighed heavily "It looks like you won't help us. Head Auror Potter, please take the necessary actions possible."

A voice was carried out "Yes, you are dismissed Mary. I will take it from here."

The door opened, and two individuals came in, with the interrogating lady giving the man who entered a respectful nod.

The man swished his wand, and the door slammed shut.

"You." Percy said. "You were the one who stopped me."

The man merely nodded. The woman beside him was staring without any emotion at him.

"Yes, I am. But the most important question is, who are you?"

***

"...But the most important question is, who are you?" Harry asked, his voice clearly showing his curiosity.

"I..." The man looked to be struggling, before he made a resigned face "Fine. My name's Percy Jackson."

Hermione, who was beside him, raised an eyebrow "That is a strange name. Where are you from?"

The man, now identified as Percy said "Well... I'm from New York."

Harry murmured to himself "New York?" Then aloud "How and why are you so far away?"

Percy opened his mouth, before shutting it. Harry sighed, he had expected it, that's why he brought a Veritaserum with him. He grabbed one from his pocket, before showing it.

"This? This is a Veritaserum. Three drops, and you'll spill all your secrets to us." Harry said, a little vindicatively.

Percy now sported a horrified look "What? But—"

Hermione grabbed a fist of his hair, and held his head backwards, so Harry could drop the Veritaserum. But before the drop reached Percy's tongue, it redirected itself, before falling to the floor.

Harry's eyes almost bulged out in surprise. Percy was now grunting, and the Veritaserum was acting very abnormally.

But it stopped as soon as Hermione punched him the face, to which he crumpled down, unconscious.

"He shows great control over liquid. There's a chance that he may be an elemental wizard." Hermione said, mostly to herself.

Harry cleared his throat "As much as I've learned over these years, I'm afraid I'm not familiar with the term."

Hermione smirked, before it fell away "Well, elemental wizards are very rare cases, who are born with the natural ability to manipulate the elements, mainly including water, air, fire, earth and plants. They're like metamorphmaguses, but they have to develop it constantly or the power remains dormant. That's why elementals are rare and hard to find."
