"What's going on here-" Hermione Granger's voice seemed to float to Luna's ears, but te gasp that followed was strangely loud.

"Ohh, what are you people doing?!?" Hermione's voice had seemed dull with misunderstanding, but then as Luna's long hair fell back a dawning comprehension fell on her features.

"Why hello, Granger. Come to watch the festivities?" Malfoy held an air that was in the mix of arrogant and cocky.

"How... Dare... you..." Hermione seemed at a loss for words, which was definitely rare.

"Herms what's- Luna?" Green-eyed Black haired Harry Potter himself was now at the center followed closely by Ron. He seemed to look down upon the situation from a great height, but was brought back to earth by the sound of Luna's quiet whimpering.

"Bloody Hell..." Ron seemed not really to care too much for the scene, and was a more little rude at this point. "I didn't know that her skin was so pale, I Only realized that in the contrast with the bruise... I always thought she resembled a Vampire, but Bloody hell, I never thought I was right." Hoots of laughter erupted within the group. "UHH, I mean..." Ron's ears were red to the tip.

"Ron..." Hermione was now radiating with anger.

Harry aimed a quick punch toward Crabb, who seemed to be ready for another shot at Luna.

"Ready for another go, mate?" Harry said menacingly.

"Any time, Potter." Harry Slammed his fist into Crabb's stomach, gaining a low rumbling moan of pain.

Luna's Storm-cloud eyes watched the scene, and decided that she wanted to be the one to put an end to their fight, WITHOUT getting hurt again. Ron caught her look- it was the one she'd given him in the department of mysteries. He'd grabbed her wand and flung it towards her. Despite her visual disabilities, she caught it straight out and aimed it in the direction of the two fighting teens.

"Harry Move!" Luna cried. Harry pushed Crabb off him and rolled out of the way, like Sirius, his previous deciced godfather had taught him to.

Imobulus!

The fight was over, and Blaize as well of the rest of his followers were high tailing it out towards the nearest shops or towards their parents, being the cowards they were. A few wizards said nothing, the rest looked at Harry smiling, and one looked towards Luna as though she'd been the one to start the fight. Crabb stood blinking stupidly at Malfoy, who was now trying to figure out a way how to put him back to normal, little did he know this was actually quite close to the normal dumb founded Crabb.

"Are you ok?" Hermione seemed to be beside herself in grief, running towards Harry and looking him over quickly, then running to Luna and attempting to figure out why she wasn't crying yet.

"Harry, that was a vary brave thing of you to do, but vary stupid. I can't believe you would take someone as big as Crabb on your own... Ron why didn't you help him?? And without your Wand, Harry, your sooooo lucky. I-" Hermione Gushed all of this out as they walked towards the side walks.

"Hermione, just because you were to scared to have done anything doesn't mean the same for Harry." Luna sounded different, just like she'd practiced. Her voice didn't float like it generally did, but it still had that lightness in it, as though she was ready to fly towards the clouds and her old self vary soon. But it made a world of difference to them.

"Luna, is something wrong?" Ron's voice now hurt her like poison now, after all he had said about her to the Slytherins. She'd changed for him, after all.

"What, just because I don't sound so loony now means there's something wrong?" Luna snapped.

"I didn't mean-"

"Yes you did." Luna interrupted. She still had that way of reading peoples minds going for her.

"Luna, He means what happened back there? We were worried when they said Loony.. it's because, well.." Harry sent a glare towards his best friend and tried to pick up the pieces.

"Ya, ya. I get it. Every one calls me Loony, even Ron does too. But that's ok, I won't give any one a single reason to do that any more. I don't need your pity, Harry." Luna said. For a moment, she chocked. She knew only a while ago she would've been blabbering about some new creature to Harry, but she didn't want to go back to that girl. She needed to be different, just for herself.

"Luna, we're friends. I've never pitied you." Harry said this, and sounded so sincere that Luna almost fell for it... ALMOST.
