hey sorry for not updating in so long. I hope you enjoy this chapter.
Ithaca: kid doesn't own Harry Potter. Just me.
Ithaca stared, just stunned that the person who she had so many great times with, protected, and loved as a little sister starred, in fear at her, not recognizing her. she for once in her life didn't know what to do when it was concerning her friend. Luna shuffled backwards, fear evident on her pail face. Ithaca felt a twinge of pain from the motion.
"Luna...its me Ithaca...your friend" Ithaca calmly walked toward Luna, trying desperately not to frighten her. Luna just starred with wide afraid eyes. "no one will hurt you". Luna looked hesitant. She stopped moving backwards but still didn't take her eyes off of Ithaca.
When Ithaca touched Luna's shoulder, she flinched slightly, but didn't show any other signs of fear.
Ithaca hesitated slightly afraid of the answers she would receive. "Luna...do you know where we are?" Luna looked around. Luna looked back at Ithaca a nodded her head no. Ithaca couldn't meet her Luna's eyes knowing that this was not the same person she had known for many years.
Clicking of shoes and muttering was heard. Luna hid behind Ithaca in fear as Madame Pomfrey walked into the room, magically lifting some stunned girls.
"i found those girls you stunned. i have half a mind to leave them the way they are, but i am sure that Dumbledore would not like that. Ithaca since it was to protect your friend, and out of self defenses, I will not be punishing you or deducting points from your house, but a hundred points will be taken from Ravenclaw for this atrocious behavior from each girl.
the Mediwitch flicked her wand and Cho and he cronies where able to move again. "now get out of my sight, and don't be surprised if you are all expelled. What are you doing just standing there? LEAVE. The delinquents left, suddenly in great hurry.
Madame Pomfrey spun around, her anger leaving her, to find Luna cowering behind Ithaca. "whats wrong, did something happen in my leave? "
Ithaca nodded. "Yeah. When Luna woke up, she didn't remember who I was or where we are." Ithaca looked on the verge of panicking, causing Luna to tighten her hold on her shirt and buryher head in her back, before the nurse put a calming hand on her shoulder.
"everything will be fine. The spell I used to counteract the Cruciartus curse sometimes removes memories." Ithaca started panicking again.
"so she may not remember me every again? What will happen to her? Will she..."
calm down child, its only temporarily. She should have her memories back in about a day or two, the most a week." Ithaca gave a sigh of relief.
The Mediwitch examined Luna,who was watching the leaves blow through air outside the window,
"i can perform a spell to see what she remembers up too... but it will take some time and will leave her exhausted." the nurse flicked her wand and summoned a old dusty spell book, and flipped it over to some specific pages.
"I know you care deeply for your friend" she said without looking away from the tome "but could you leave the room for awhile. Sometimes memories are displayed to people within the vicinity, and you might see something she doesn't want you to know, etc."
"so shoo" with that the Mediwitch shooed Ithaca out of the room, leaving her to her work.
Ithaca paced around the common room, having been excused from classes, she didn't know what to do. The waiting was driving her up a bloody wall. Ithaca knew she was not the most patient person, but no one should be forced to wait this long to be able to visit someone in the hospital. She recalled Madame Pomfrey's words.
"you can come back around dinner. But please don't excite her. She will be in a sort of fragile state, and most likely sleeping..."
Ithaca sighed. She looked around the room, and a brilliant plan came to her. She pulled out her wand and set to work.
About a hour later, she had finished her work. She examined everything one more time to make sure that it was all in working order. She planned to get revenge for Luna. This is one of the few things Ithaca would wait for patiently. (shocking isn't it?)
soon her targets walked into the door. She followed them with her eyes, and trailed them silently, her presence unknown to them. Soon they where standing on the trap. Quick as any master of this trade, Ithaca flicked her wand thus capturing her prey.
The sound of girls screaming could probably be herd through the castle. Cho, and her 'friends' Rachel, and Mayel where covered in what appeared to be writing. And on their foreheads written in huge red letters was the word bitch. Ithaca designed the words to still be visible even if you cover it up. The girls ran of the the bathroom to hide there shame.
Ithaca walked to a wall and picked up a disillusioned camera. "my favorite prank so far, yes there is still more to come." she laughed evilly and walked to her trunk to find that spell that allows pictures to move.
Luna woke up again back in that unfamiliar place. She didn't see that girl anymore, but she saw that lady who made those mean girls go away. Quite frankly Luna didn't care where she was, as long as she was away from her father. Out of habit she looked around the room, just to make sure that her father really wasn't there.
The lady Luna saw earlier turned around and looked at her. She handed her that liquid stuff she was mixing.
"come and drink this, it will make you feel better. Luna eyed it suspiciously, remembering the last time someone said to drink a funny looking liquid, and her having a soar throat for a week. She finally took the potion, believing that it couldn't be bad since the lady did make those girls go away.
The potion had a bitter place, but she knew better then to complain about something, so she just suffered through it.
"that's a good girl" the lady took the glass and walked off to somewhere.
Luna started to feel tired. She curled back up into the fluffy sheet enjoying the bed. Her last thought was not remembering the last time she slept in a reel bed instead of the floor.
Luna was having a dream. It wasn't a nightmare as usual, but more of something to do with that girl. The one she saw and hid behind earlier. She felt like she...knew her. She kept seeing what she could only describe as memories of her. But she had no concrete recollection of her. But a name did come to mind. Ithaca.
I hope you enjoyed the chapter. I want to thank everyone for reviewing, also if you can figure out how far back Luna remembers, I will give you a cookie. Night( falls unconscious.)
