Luna found herself back in the department of mysteries once more. This time however it was very diffrent. She was all alone in the room as the prophecies shattered around her. It felt more like a memory of before she'd been knocked down. She'd just thought in her sense of panic that day with all her friends in danger that she'd pulled on her mother's comforting voice from childhood to edge away her fear. However maybe she had been wrong.
Just like before a glass orb dropped before her. In this dream Luna heard her voice more clearly almost booming around her. It was whimsical and clear but almost like her mother was speaking all while lost in a dream. She sounded like she was telling the story of a little girl with hair like moonbeams and eyes of the purest silver. It stopped before Luna could hear all of what her mother was going to say. She faded away into a memory that seemed real.
In this vision her parents were seen leaning over what was most likely her crib. Her mother didn't look like her joyful self since she was filled with tears. In the arms of her husband she pled the severity of the fact that he protect their child. That no one could ever know their secret.
The blonde woman continued to cry.
'She'll be able to see it all like woman always have in my family line. Past, present, and future. He'll want her my love. He'll want her so badly with what's to come. She'll be able to complete any prophecy and see any outcome with the right training. I've seen it. When he comes and trust me he will come. You must hide her where she won't be found. You hide her and never look back." She said clutching him so forcefully.
Her husband promised. Gave an oath to her. He then asked why he couldn't hide them both. The woman just smiled sadly and told him not to worry there would be no need to. This made him feel reassured. If only he'd known her fate...
Luna once again was brought into a darker place. Where a man was drug before the dark lords feet in chains covered in blood. It was her father. The last thing Luna heard was his scream only for it to follow with one of her own. Luna felt like she was burning from the inside.
She woke with a start her entire body glowing as she floated near the ceiling. Before Luna fell and before Ginny could even wake up enough to react there was a loud pop. AS Luna finally fell she found herself in the strong arms of a tall, handsome, freckled faced boy. Soon after the initial pop another sounded however this one had brought the whole crew drowzey but alert. She'd fallen into the arms of Fred Weasley as his twin George had seemingly gone to fetch the others. As soon as Fred had put her on her feet she looked at the others and worked hard to regain her composure after so much information. You see Luna now had a theory and a pretty good one to boot. she turned to the group shock on most faces.
"Guys." Luna said firmly standing I'm a sky blue sleep set of a simple pair of cotton shorts and tank top.
"I think things just got a whole lot more complicated. I really need to speak to Albus Dumbledore immediately. If he can't help himself I think he knows someone who can. I have a theory. There's not just a prophecy about me... I make prophecies as well."
This time she looked directly at Harry.
"You and I." she said firmly. "For both our sakes I think it's best if this year we stick together as much as possible."
She now looked at the group.
"I wasn't just a target this summer I was a target to use against Harry. He thinks with me he can get the awnser he needs to defeat Harry and if my dream was any indication he may just be right. I still want to find my father and with some training I think I just might. However before I do anything I'll need training and well need a plan. I good plan."
The following morning while Luna sipped warm tea on the couch after a very long night Harry updated Mr. Weasley to alert the order and get a meeting with Dumbledore as soon as possible. She had never honestly spoken to their headmaster alone and found the very idea strange. It seemed alot of strange things were occurring lately. By the mod afternoon they'd removed word that Dumbldore was out taking care of some important buisness and wouldn't be able to be reached before school. Minerva McGonagall had scheduled a meeting for them in his office on the first night of school. After that night time seemed to stretch on until finally it was time to go to Kings Cross to board the train. Luna almost felt a hint of sadness to go as the twins would not be returning having finally finished preparing their new flat and the shop. After Lunas nightmare the twins had alot of business to complete on their new joke shop before the start of term arrived. Fred had promised come term they'd be close by if she needed them and it set her with some ease.
Luna had kept true to her word to stick close to Harry so when he insited he had some buisness to attend to she insited on coming. Casting a charm to hide herself from prying eyes and Harry using the cloak they'd gone to spy on Draco Malfoy. Harry insited he thought Draco had been marked after seeing him in Diagon Alley that summer. He snuck into the compartment while Luna decided to stay close by outside using one of the twin extendable ears.
"Draco how was you're summer?" asked Pansy in a sickening coo laying her head on his sholder.
Luna gaged a little.
Draco shrugged off Pansy causing the girl to huff in disdain.
"Shove off Pansy I'm not in the mood." Draco seemed on edge to say the least.
Crab and Goyle smirked.
"Draco had a fine summer." said Goyle with a malicious smile. "Lots of important guest."
Draco glared.
"Oh yes the very best. Blood all over the floor and the never ending wails. I don't know why they couldn't find somewhere else to bring the sniveling oaf. It's not like he's any use to the Dark Lord without his memories." he huffed.
Something inside of Luna snapped. She waved her wand the charm disappearing causing everyone to turn as the compartment slammed open. Hiding be damned. She marched right up to Draco Malfoy as he swiftly stood up from his seat.
"What in the hell do you think..."
SMACK
Everyone stared as Luna slapped Draco upside the face the sound booming through the room.
"How dare you. I'll kill you I swear you and you're dirty family you little blonde haired shit." Luna screamed.
The head boy and girl rushed in restraining Luna as she swung and kicked trying to get back to the blonde boy.
The rest of the ride she'd been stuck in the heads compartment until they reached school. when they finally arrived professors were waiting as she was escorted off the train.
McGonagall speaking first.
"What in the world possibly possessed you Ms. Lovegood to strike another student."
Luna was still steamed.
"He had a nargle on his face I was just helping him remove it." she sneered.
"Ms. Lovegood!" McGonagall fumed.
"Oh shove off it the very lot of you. I'm done here. Going back to school was a mistake I need to find my father." She yelled.
Just like that with a pop outside the gates and charms of the school Luna was gone. Leaving only shocked faces in her wake.
