Don't own Harry Potter, sadly.

"Sure this will work?" Asked twenty-seven year-old Harry potter asked his sister.

" As sure as I can be without having already testing it."

The blonde haired girl answered her usual dreamy tone, replaced with a logical and a bit anxious tone. Luna's voice rarely evey held the dreamy note to it that she held all through hogwarts.

They looked around the library that had books and papers all over the black manor. The board in the corner was written on, with every square inch covered in spell after spell , that was later crossed out after it was proven ineffective. For the last five years this had been the place they had called home.

Harry looked down once again at the book in his hands, re-reading the page for the umpteenth time, and then looked back at the potion. As far as he could tell everything was in order; the color and fell was spot on, but then again, Snape had always said Harry was useless at potions, even though the man was mostly bais, didn't mean he was wrong.

They had come up with the plan only a few months after the war had officially ended a time that was supposed be a time of celebration, and happily ever after, but neither one of the former Hogwarts student had anyone to do either with besides the themselves Both of them had been wallowing in their own depression.

Both of them had lost those most important to them in the war against Voldemort, the git had won the war even if he didn't live to see it. That was until as Luna was cleaning out Hermione's things, for their move to the America.

When Luna showed Harry the notes on his bestfriends parallel time reversal theory. He couldn't but help look down at the notes, with a bittersweet smile. Even from the great beyond Hermione was as Ron would so elegantly put it 'bloody brilliant'.

What was shocking though, was what the book held. The book held the answers to both his and Luna's prayers.

They could go to another world, one where they could start over again.

Of course, they might run into problems once they got there, but it was nothing the warriors couldn't deal with.

There had been much planning up till this point, for some of the potion ingredients were extremely rare and hard to come by. That, and they had much to organize and retrieve, for they did not plan on going to this new world empty handed.

Both of them had specially made trunks that could hold everything that was in their bank vaults, and any other personal items they had deemed necessary. The goblins, which had been disgruntled to see the gold leave their banks.

They had also decided that they would change their names once they got there, if they had counterparts in that world. No need for things to be too confusing.

While both Luna and Harry wanted their families, they wanted to be cautious first and just sit and observe. It wouldn't do to rush in and screw everything up. There was also the whole Voldemort deal.

So it was decided that they would pose as siblings from the Peverell family, who happened to be distant relatives of the Potters, very distant and in which would make it very hard to confirm.

Harry had taken great pains to research the family for they had disappeared before the first war and were believed to have fled the died out at least in male line. They had never been found, hence giving Harry and Luna the perfect cover story.

So here they were a five months later, with their completed potion, spell and all their possessions packed away and ready to go.

Both Harry and Luna were wearing normal clothing, as they did not know where in this alternate world they would show up.

They would hate to pop up in the middle of muggle London in their robes and cause a scene, get tossed in the loony bin upon their arrival

"Well I guess this is it." Harry said the excitement clearly tangible in his voice. He turned to Luna, who was smiling gently back at him.

Luna had changed quite a bit from Loony Luna, as she was known back in her earlier years at Hogwarts.

Slowly, but surely, over the years Luna was drawn out of her shell by

Harry and the others, and surprisingly Neville had more impact on her than any of the others. So much so that you never would have guessed she was withdrawn and lonely before.

Luna was like the sister Harry never had, and he treated her as such.

During the war, Luna and Neville had become engaged, only for the day after he was their wedding, Neville was killed in a Death Eater raid just weeks after they had announced their 'honeymoon' it was a terrible shock to them all.

Luna had never fully recovered from the loss of her husband, but she carried on in the war with such a will, that she was soon a force to be reckoned with on her own. Many of the Death Eaters came to fear Luna

Lovegood, she became almost as feared as Harry Potter himself.

"Well come on Luna, we haven't got all day!" Harry said with a smile as he shrunk his and Luna's trunk and put them in his pocket.

"Hedwig, come on,"

The white owl flew into the room, landing on Harry shoulder, clicking her beak in a disapproving way that made him chuckle a little.

"Oi, stop your whining! We're leaving soon and I'd hate to leave you behind because you were sulking." Harry told his familiar, with a small laugh which caused her to pick at his muggle jacket.

Luna walked forward and began to read from the book, "Well, according to this, all we have to do is drink the potion, hold hands, then say the spell. Sounds pretty easy to me." almost too easy Harry thought to himself. 'God I'm almost as paranoid as Moody.'

Harry poured the thick syrupy yellow liquid into two different beakers, handing one to Luna before picking his up as well.

"Here goes nothing." Harry said before swallowing the whole bottle contents in one go.

He quickly put down the beaker and grabbed Luna's free hand, waiting for her to drink the potion.

Luna looked at him and smiled a bit before drinking the liquid, which indeed was very foul tasting.

Then together they read the spell in french, then looked at each other and said also in french "on se retrouve de l'autre côté."

Suddenly, there was a bright blinding light, much like that fateful Halloween only difference was in color, it was in Gold to signify the new chance that they had just given themselves. And just like that Harry Potter and Luna Lovegood were no more.

se retrouve de l'autre côté is French for see you on the other side.
