A/N: I do not own Harry Potter.
Luna stood just outside St. Mungo's. She had no where to go, she almost turned back around.
"You've come this far," she whispered taking a step onto the sidewalk. It was dark, it was cold, there was a slight mist in the air. Luna shivered but started walking quickly.
There were a few street lights, but they didn't illuminate much of the street. With a sigh, she started walking just picking a direction at random. She'd gone a few blocks before her feet started hurting. Pushing past the pain she managed to walk another block before her legs gave out on her entirely. With a small yelp she toppled to the cold ground.
"Get out, Sirius, just get out," Luna groaned. Her head throbbed. Someone was yelling. Another memory?
"Reggie, come on, you don't have to listen to them, come with me!" Something hit her, Luna screamed in pain.
"Now look what you made me do," the voice yelled. Luna curled into a ball sobbing. The yelling wasn't in her head. Two boys were yelling, one laying across the ground next to her. He appeared about her age. The other boy, the one standing on the steps yelling looked a little younger. The older boy looked over at Luna and pulled himself to his feet. He stood up, towering over Luna. He reached his hand down.
"Are you alright?"
"My head hurts," Luna whispered allowing him to help her to her feet. Her legs nearly gave out again. Immediately the boy had scooped her up in his arms.
"Reggie, she's hurt, open the door for me. She's freezing. I think she's been out here all night." Sirius carried Luna into the house setting her down gently on a black sofa.
"Who?"
"Oh, right, introductions, of course, how could I forget. I am Sirius Black of the most noble house of Black, this is my brother Regulus, also of the noble house of Black," Sirius said with sweeping grand gestures at him and his brother. Luna stared at him for a moment before bursting out in laughter.
"Your turn."
"I'm Luna."
"Luna? No surname?"
"No. I lost it," Luna answered carefully. She had no idea who these two were, no idea what exactly the house of Black was.
"Wow, um, our parents are out right."
"Don't tell her that, she might kill us and steal the silver."
"What the bloody hell would I do with silver? It probably has your family crest on it and no one would buy it even if I could steal it."
"Can we keep her?" Sirius asked eagarly.
"We can't even keep you, you were running out on us, remember?"
"Oh, right, um, this is awkward, see, Luna, I was running away from home because my family are big supporters of you know who, and I disagree. Want to run away with me?" Sirius asked with a smile causing Luna to blush slightly.
"Really, Sirius? You fall over a pretty girl and the first thing you can think of is taking her with you? Someone might be looking for her right now."
"Exactly. Since she hasn't said so, it means whoever she's running from is not someone she wants to find her. C'mon, Luna. You can run away with me, Reggie, tell mom and dad that I'm out with a pretty girl." Sirius said with a smirk scooping Luna back up and walking back out of the house. He raised a wand in the air summoning the Night Bus.
"Potter Manor please," he said with a smile as sat Luna on a hard plastic chair.
"Potter Manor," the driver repeated pulling away from the sideway leaving Reggie standing in the doorway shaking his head.
