Three years later, Luna was taken into Minerva's office, where Pomona and Poppy were already waiting. They looked anxious, while Minerva looked quite annoyed. Luna was worried, because she wasn't sure what was going on, so she asked, "Did I do something?"

Minerva, Poppy, and Pomona exchanged looks before turning to face Luna.

"It's not something you have done, but something the ministry has done. But we have to tell you everything."

Luna sat down, while the three professors exchanged all the details with her. Everything, except the betrothal to Fred and the fact that she was a princess.

"But what does that have to do with what's going on right now?"

"Dolores is coming to the castle to teach Defense against the Dark Arts for the year. Meaning that a change of name and look are required."

"I have to change my name? And everything about how I look as well?"

"I'm sorry, but we can't risk her finding you, or she will send the curse here, and you could be hurt from that."

Luna didn't like it. But understanding that her life was at risk, she had to go along with it. "Alright, the usual look then?"

"We're going to do the same hair and eyes, but we will be doing a darker skin tone. Not much, but enough that you look like someone completely different. Do you know any names you would like to use?"

"Dora."

"And a last name you would like to use?"

"Smith. It's fairly common, and no one would ever guess."

"Good idea. We will do the spells right now, and they will last the entire year."

"Will Eris be able to recognize me?"

"Yes."

Luna didn't understand why Dolores had put the curse on her, but she didn't have time to think much about it. She knew that it was the only way to protect herself, and for that, she was going to take advantage of this chance.

"Do you think we could maybe go to Hogsmeade and buy some make up for me? And things that she would never expect me to wear? To help keep up the pretense."

The three professors didn't mind, so they all went to the village to help her buy things that she knew she could fool Dolores with, though Minerva knew that the other witch might be able to see through the disguise. Then again, she might not be able to.

A few days later found Dora in Defense against the Dark Arts with Dolores teaching. She called role, and when Dora's name was here, she replied with "Here". She had changed a lot to make herself unrecognizable to others, and the least she could do was reply when her new name was called.

The thing that had hurt Dora most was that Fred had not tried to search her out. Then again, he didn't know about the change. Hopefully, he could convince him that she was indeed Luna, just in disguise. Though she would have to ask Minerva if she could tell him the story of why she had to be disguised in the first place.

Class passed, and Dora left the room to get to lunch. So she could find Fred and talk to him. She didn't see him at lunch when she arrived, but a few minutes later, she saw him enter and walked up to him.

"Fred, can I talk to you?"

"Er…do I know you?"

"It's about your friend…Luna."

"Oh." He followed her out into the hallway, where she hugged him.

Looking around, she made sure there was no one around to hear her say this, but she told him, "It's me, Luna."

"You're not Luna. I know Luna. She's blonde, and pale, and she has grey eyes. And she doesn't wear a lot of makeup. And she is still gorgeous. You are not Luna, but thanks for trying to cheer me up." He started to walk into the Great Hall and back to lunch.

"Fred wait…"

"Just stop trying. I don't care who you are, but stop trying to be Luna."

Luna watched her best friend go back to join his other friends, before turning around and running back to her dorm to be alone.

Little did she know, a little witch who looked like a toad had indeed heard the whole conversation between her and Fred. Shame she couldn't do anything without giving any information out about what she knew.

The days passed, and Fred ignored Dora, since he still couldn't see that she was Luna. But it made sense, since she had changed her entire appearance to be safe, which, little did she know, didn't matter. Eventually Dora got sick of him ignoring her, before he went up to him and slapped him.

"What the hell?"

"This is for ignoring me this whole time."

"Because you're not Luna."

Minerva came to keep them from continuing, and took them to her office.

"Mr. Weasley, what is this all about?"

"This girl attacked me, claiming that she was Luna, but she isn't."

"Oh but she is." Minerva took out her wand and undid her spells, so that Fred could see that it was really Luna under the disguise.

As Fred realized his mistake, Minerva put the disguise back on Luna, changing her back to Dora. Dora pushed Fred away and left the room, not even looking back.

Fred ran after her, but not fast enough to catch her before he couldn't see her in the throng of students. That was when he realized that he had royally buggered up.
