Y/N POV

"Take the youngest girl and the Mudblood," Bellatrix commanded the Death Eaters. "We'll see how committed Potter and the Lovegoods is as we torture them."

"Oh that's not all," A familiar voice said that I never wanted to hear again in my life. "Dear cousin... Y/N will pay for what he did to me." A Death Eater came into view as he removed his mask with his wand arm, which was now prosthetic with silver-ish fingers and a scar ran through his left eye.

"Oh," I said with a growl while guarding Hermione. "It's Dickhead Nathan. Wish I blinded you after the fact you f***ing stabbed me!"

"I am going to make you wish you weren't born," He retorted.

"And we'll make sure you go to hell." Lana said.

Harry, Ron, Luna and Neville guarded Ginny as Harry pointed his wand at Bellatrix and held the prophecy in the other hand.
"You even try to take it and I'll smash this thing," Harry warned them. To taunt them even more, he chuckled it in the air as Lucius watched in horror. "What kind of prophecy are we talking about here?" He smirked at them.

"Surely you just, Potter?" Bellatrix pondered.

"Not really," Harry said. "How come Voldemort wants it?"

"You dare to speak the Dark Lord's name?" She cackled.

"Who, Voldemort? Oh, yeah, I dare. Voldemort, Voldemort, Voldemort --"

"SILENCE!" She bellowed. "How dare you utter that name from your half-blood mouth!"

"He's a half-blood too," I said. "And I dare too, just now with Voldemort. I'll say his real name. TOM MARVALO RIDDLE!" I yelled at the top of my lungs.

Bellatrix looked ready to strike me, but I kept going. "Come out, you no-nosed bitch! You chicken, TOM!"

"Control yourself, Bella," Nathan said as he aimed his wand at me.

"What's so special about this prophecy anyway?" Harry asked.

"You mean Dumbledore never told you the reason you bear that scar was hidden here?" Lucius said.

"What?" Harry said as the Death Eaters cackled, Bellatrix being the loudest. Harry turned to us and whispered, "When I give the signal, blast the shelves."

"I can do more than that," I grinned as I looked at Lana, who was reading my mind. "When we cast it, run like hell."

Lucius was dumb enough not to notice and apprently so was Nathan, Bellatrix and the other Death Eaters as they went on about Voldemort. Harry saw our moment and yelled, "Now!"

Lana and I ran into front of the group and shouted, "Protego Diabolica!"

"How's that for an oldie but a goodie!?" I yelled at the Death Eaters as we turned to everyone else. "RUN!"

The blue fires rose in size as the Death Eaters panicked as the dragons appeared and roared, making us run out of the Department. Malfoy had apparated and grabbed Harry by the shoulder, but Hermione was quicker than him. "Stupefy!" She yelled at Malfoy, who was blasted back as more spells from Death Eaters came. They must have seen how Lucius got around the fires.

"Stop them!" Lucius yelled as we separated. Ron, Ginny, Lana and Luna went one way as Hermione, Harry, Neville and I went through another door. Hermione and I cooped up next to the desk while Neville and Harry hid somewhere. Hermione figured they would see our feet and pulled me out of their view and rolled on top of me. I knew it wasn't the time for joke and I held Hermione close to me and she buried her head into my chest.

"It's gonna be okay, Love," I whispered softly. "We're gonna be okay. I love you."

"I love you too," Hermione said quickly and kissed me quickly. "I love you, I love you, I love you." She kept muttering that softly as I kissed her again. We heard some footsteps entered the room.

"They might have gone on to the hall," A Death Eater said.

"Check under the desks," Bellatrix said.

Harry stood up from where he was and shouted, "Stupefy!" at the Death Eater, knocking him out into the wall. Hermione and I jumped from under the desk, but Bellatrix saw us and aimed her wand.

"Avada--"

"Oh, no you don't!" I yelled. "Expelliarmus!"

"Stupefy!" Neville said as he knocked her out. I teleported towards Bellatrix's body, took her wand from where it landed and chucked it out the room. "See if she finds it," I said. "Neville, you were bloody brilliant!"

"Y/N... she's your aunt?" Harry asked.

"Oh, yeah, she is," I said as I kicked her arm. "Just as loyal as Nathan." A yell came from another room as Harry yelled, "Ron!" "Impedimenta!" Another Death Eater said at us, sending us backward and Harry had been struck by the wall.

"We got him!" The Death Eater yelled.

"Oscasui!" Hermione yelled. "Stupefy!"

The Death Eater's mouth was removed and fell to the ground. I looked at Hermione, who looked back at me.

"That's my girl," I said with a smile, which made her blush madly. To make sure the Death Eater was out, Harry yelled, 'Petrificus Totalus!"

But the worst would happen at this moment.

Another Death Eater came in and made a slashing movement with his wand towards Hermione. I tried to take it for her but I was too late. It hit her as purple flame erupted from the wand and slashed her across the chest.

Purple flames... that must mean... Antonin Dolohov.

"HERMIONE!" I yelled as Harry and I got back to her side. She was not dead, but she wasn't responding.

"Come on, Hermione," Harry pleaded. "Please don't be dead, don't be dead."

Neville pressed his fingers to Hermione's wrist. "She's alive, Y/N."

"But she isn't responding, Nev!" I said with tears coming out my eyes. "It's my girlfriend's life at stake! I love her so bloody much!"

"Y/N!" Harry said as he grabbed me by the shoulders. "I know you love her, we all do, but you love her more than all of us, and I understand that. She's going to be okay. I promise you, brother."

I sniffed a little. "Thanks, Harry. I'll carry her." I looked at Hermione's sleeping form, raised her hand to my lips and kissed her hand as I got her on my back. As I did, I whispered into Hermione's ear. "I love you, Hermione. You mean the whole world to me, Love. When this is over and we're on break, I'll ask you if you want to come home with me."

I looked back at Neville and Harry, "When I see Dolohov, I'm killing him with the bloody dagger."

Lana POV

We escaped from the Death Eaters on our side of things and we were trying to get away. Ron was hit with something and so was Ginny so Luna and I were trying to help him.

"Where do we go?" I heard Neville say.

"I don't know," Harry said.

"We have to find them," Y/N said. "Maybe Lana can help with Hermione."

As we turned around the corner, we bumped into Neville, Y/N and Harry, but Hermione was on Y/N's back. Y/N looked very concerned as Harry and Neville smiled weakly, before looking at us.

"What happened?" Harry asked about Ginny, who I was supporting.

"I think my ankle is broken," Ginny said with a little pain. "And someone hit Ron with a weird spell..."

And Ron laughed strangely. "Hiyya, Harry," He giggled. "You look funny..."

He laughed again as Ginny nearly fell, but I caught her. Ron fell to the ground, but Luna was able to catch him. Harry came towards Ginny, helping her up with me as I looked at Y/N.

"What happened to Hermione?" I asked, just as concerned for them.

"Dolohov," He said while taking a sharp breath. "She got hit and I wasn't fast enough. We need to heal her, please."

"Of course!" I said. "Harry, can you hold Ginny while I help Hermione?"

"Yeah," He responded and I left Ginny's side. Y/N carefully put Hermione down as his hand navigated down towards the cut on her chest and opened the shirt to reveal the blood.

"Newt and Tina told me a spell that can help," I said as I tried to get some blood away. "The incantation is 'Vulnera Sanentur', but it would take two people to heal it since the damage from Dolohov is very intensive."

"Anything to save her," Y/N said as he took another sharp breath. "I'd do anything." I nodded and took my hand as he did too. We didn't need to use a wand since we are good with wandless magic.

"Vulnera Sanentur," We both said as the slash healed itself and some of the blood flowed back into her blood. The wound then knit itself as if Dolohov never attacked her. But she didn't wake up.

"Come on, Hermione," Y/N pleaded. "Please, wake up, Love. I don't know what I'd do without you. Please wake up... for me."

"Ugh, what happened?" Hermione groaned as she got up which made Y/N smile, kissed her and wrapped his arms around her, one around her body and one on her head, holding her close to him.

"I thought I lost you..." Y/N said in her shoulder.

"You'll never lose me," Hermione said with a small smile. "Cause in the future, there won't be a single instance we'll be apart. Cause I'm gonna be with you for the rest of my life."

"I'd like that," Y/N said as they kissed again.

"There they are!" Bellatrix yelled as she pointed her wand as us.

"How the hell did she find her wand?" Y/N said. "I threw it away from her, not even a Accio spell would help her then."

Before we could even do anything, a storm of spells rained down on us, causing Luna to be blasted off her feet, Ron and Harry to be blasted into the room with the veil and for the rest of us to be knocked unconscious.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I woke up in the veil room next to my brother and Harry as Lucius stood over us and grinned.

"Your race is run, Potter, Lovegoods," He said as he reached out his hand. "Hand it over."

We all looked around to find Neville, Hermione, Luna, Ron and Ginny being held by Death Eaters.

And Nathan was holding Hermione and Ron, while he was grinning at us.

"Let them go!" Y/N said.

"I'll give it if you do that," Harry said.

"You are not in a position to negotiate," Lucius beckoned.

"And you are in a position to get your arse kicked," I said.

"Don't do it, Harry!" Neville shouted. "Don't!"

"Stop, Neville!" Harry yelled, but it must have gotten Bellatrix's attention.

"Neville?" She asked. "Neville Longbottom!" She cackled again. "My dear boy, I paid your parents a visit a long time ago! We had such a time!"

"You put them in St. Mungos!" Neville cried out.

Bellatrix beamed madly as she looked at us. "So, nephew, niece and Potter," She said. "Give us the prophecy or I'll see how long it talks to crack Longbottom like his parents."

"Don't give it to them!" Neville yelled, but Bellatrix smiled and shouted "Crucio!". Neville cried out in pain and screamed at the top of his lungs.

But unbeknownst to everyone, someone apparted behind Lucius without him expecting it.

"Hey, Lucius? Get the hell away from my children." Mum said as she punched him in the face.

As she did, more shadows dropped down from the ceiling, revealing themselves to be Lupin, Sirius, Moody, Tonks and Kingsley Shacklebolt. As Lucius recovered from the punch, Mum had come to us and released us from our bindings. "Are you three alright?" She asked us.

"Yeah," Y/N said as we were released. "I need to find Dolohov, I'm killing him." Harry jumped off the platform and landed next to Neville who was released from Bellatrix's curse. "Are you okay?" He asked him.

"Yeah..." Neville said as a hand grabbed Harry, no other than Dolohov himself.

"Give me the prophecy!" He yelled as Y/N teleported behind him and teleported away from Harry, only to reappear on the platform.

"Sick son of a bitch," Y/N said, as he held Dolohov in a chokehold.

Dolohov cackled madly. "Thought I kill that Mudblood you care about!"

Y/N growled at his antics. "Then you made the most fatal mistake of your life. Cause you won't be living anymore."

With that, he reached for the knife... and stabbed Dolohov in the chest. He teleported off off him and left him there to die.

"Bit hardcore, don't you think?" I said. "He is a Death Eater, so we did some good, don't you think?"

"Oh yeah," He said. "He's going to hell for those murders he's done."

A crack was heard back from the platform as everyone looked in astonishment. Malfoy had dropped the orb and it broke. Sirius realized what happened and ran toward Harry and Neville. "Get out of here now!" He yelled at all of us.

"No!" Neville said. "We're staying to fight!"

"Then so be it," Sirius said as Lucius cast a spell on him and Harry. Y/N and I went to Nathan who still didn't let go of either Hermione and Ron.
"Let them go, Nathan," Y/N said as we both readied our wands. " Or I'll do to you what I did to your pal, Dolohov. He's dead now."

"Really then?" Nathan said, dropping Hermione and Ron. "Let's see how the grandchildren of Grindelwald deal against --"

"Reducto!" Y/N and I yelled as he was sent flying against the wall. "He talks too much." I said to him as we went towards Ron and Hermione.

"Are you two okay?" Y/N asked Hermione and Ron. "He didn't hurt either of you?"

"No," Ron said. "But you killed someone?"

"It was the person who nearly killed Hermione," He said. "I stabbed him."

"You did that for me?" Hermione said in astonishment.

"Yeah, I did," He said. "I know you wouldn't want me to do that either, but I couldn't let him try to kill you again."

"Y/N...I understand," She said as she placed her hands on his neck. "I heard every word you said when I was out, I heard you would do anything to save me." She quickly kissed him.

"You did?"

"I did. And I would do anything for you too, Love."

"Okay, we should get back out there," I said. "We have to help them."

Hermione POV

After Y/N and Lana released us from Nathan, we fought against the Death Eaters while Harry and Sirius were facing off against Lucius and Bellatrix. As we knocked the Death Eaters out, we put our attention on Harry and Sirius.

As Harry fired a spell at Lucius, knocking him out as well, Sirius yelled, "Nice one, James!" Bellatrix was zooming across until she stopped at a pillar and yelled, "AVADA KEDAVRA!"

And it stuck Sirius in the chest.

Sirius looked down for a moment as he realized what was happening to him. Harry watched in horror as Sirius' head jerked back and he fell into the veil, becoming a ghost through the other side and not reappearing on the other side.

"SIRIUS!" Harry cried out as I saw tears coming down Y/N's, Lana's and even Addison's eyes watching Sirius die. Harry made a mad dash for Sirius in an attempt to save him, but he was too late. Addison grabbed Harry to try and stop him, and Harry yelled at the top of his lungs.

"Let me go!" Harry shouted.

"Harry! HARRY!" Addison said as she held him back and fought tears of her own.. "He's gone... there's nothing we can do..."

Harry managed to break from her grip and ran out of the room, following Bellatrix as Y/N, Lana and I followed after him.

Bellatrix was still cackling madly as she yelled through the halls of the Ministry of Magic, "I KILLED SIRIUS BLACK! I KILLED SIRIUS BLACK!" along with, "You can't stop me, Potter!"

"I'LL KILL YOU!" Harry yelled. "STUPEFY!"

He stopped as he cast it, but Bellatrix was fast and deflected it. We hid with Harry by the fountain as Bellatrix creepily stepped to our direction.

"Come out, Come out, Potter!" She said in an eery voice, which made Harry even more madder.

"Well, well," She said. "Lovegoods are here too with the girl... come to avenge your dear uncle and godfather?"

Harry's scowl grew bigger as he stood up and yelled, "Crucio!" making Lestrange drop, shriek in pain and roll around.

"Harry, stop!" Y/N yelled.

"She killed Sirius!" He said.

"That doesn't give us an excuse to use that!" Lana said. "Then you'd be just as bad as she is."

"Crucio!" Bellatrix aimed at us, but missed. "Never used an Unforgivable Curse before, have you, Potter? You have to mean it, you have to want to cause the pain in your very soul..."

"Bombarda!" Y/N and I yelled, causing something to explode next to her.

"Give me the prophecy!" She yelled.

"Can't!" Harry smirked. "It got smashed by accident!!"

Her face turned in a scowl. "You lie!"

"How's Tom gonna like that!?" Y/N yelled. "You've failed him, aunt, and he's not forgiving, is he?"

She shrieked in horror. "Forgive me, Master! I tried, I --"

Harry laughed. "He can't hear you from here. You know!"

"Can't I, Potter?" A voice boomed from around the room. I got scared the moment I heard it and snuck my hand in Y/N's as he held on tightly. A figure of a man with no nose passed by us with it's mouth open as the figure appeared. His face was pure white and he wore dark robes as he pointed his wand at us.

"So you smashed my prophecy..." Lord Voldemort said. "And you destroyed the rest and killed Dolohov.... I grow tired of you continually thwarting my plans, Harry Potter, Y/N Lovegood and Lana Lovegood!" Bellatrix ran toward the fireplace and got away through the Floo Network while Voldemort continued to point his wand at us.

"Avada Kedavra!" he shouted as we all got out of the way, but blew up the statue of the Golden Wizard since it had got in the way. But another fireplace became active as a familiar hopeful face appeared and walked out to face Voldemort, who was surprised to see him.

"It was foolish of you to come here tonight, Tom" Dumbledore said as he had his wand out, ready to fight him. "The rest of the Aurors are on their way."

"By which time I will be gone," Voldemort said as he pointed his wand at us. "And you... will be dead." He pointed his arm and cast a spell at Dumbledore, who retaliated by bringing his wand around his body as the two spells clashed with each other.

Harry had dived one way with Y/N, while I went with Lana. "Dumbledore's here!" She said. "We might have a chance now."

"Hopefully," I said. "That's Voldemort? No kidding why Y/N called him a no-nosed bitch."

The two wizards continued their clash until Voldemort stopped, took his hand and breathed fire out of his mouth as Dumbledore watched in awe as the flames took the form of a giant serpent while Voldemort cackled like a demon. The snake roared and came towards us ready to nearly devor us, but Y/N and Lana got up and yelled, "Tempesta Glaciei!"

(A/N: Spell I made up. It means Storm of ice, which would counteract Fiendfyre. I didn't use Protego Diabolica, cause that comes later in another book)

As they cast it, the burst came from their wands and froze the snake whole. With another thrust of their wands, the snake blew apart in frozen chunks as the twins stared at Voldemort with both of their eyes glowing right at him.

I wanted to yell, "That's my boyfriend and my best friend!"

Dumbledore then, with a flick of his wand, summoned the water above and formed a ball around Voldemort and levitated it in the air as the four of us got up and walked behind Dumbledore. He saw a burst of water come out and pushed us back as he tried to stop him. Eventually, the ball burst and another clash began, with Voldemort letting go, shouting and causing all the glass to break and tear a banner of Fudge on the wall.

After the glass stopped falling, Voldemort wasn't there as we were all on the ground. Y/N helped Lana and I up and asked if we were okay. Unfortunately, Harry wasn't.

He spoke, but it wasn't his voice.

It was Voldemort's.

"Kill me now, Dumbledore..." Voldemort spoke through Harry. "Do it, if death means nothing."

He didn't last long through Harry as an elevator opened as Percy Weasley and Fudge stepped in. And they saw Voldemort in the flesh before he left while Harry had passed out.

"You-Know-Who..." Fudge said as he watched in fear. "He's back." Dumbledore explained everything, and included that he would relieve Addison of headmistress, the removal of Umbridge and the nullification of the rest of the Decrees. He also said that he expected the students to like Addiosn as a headmaster, and gave her a position near Deputy Headmistress, which she would serve with Professor McGonagall.

"Dumbledore, I want some answers!" Fudge commanded.

"The Second War has begun, Minister." Dumbledore said as he ushered us to a Portkey he made.

"I'll take you to the hospital wing, 'Mione" Y/N said as we arrived at Hogwarts. "Just to check with Madam Pomfrey that our wound won't open again."

"I'm fine with that, Love," I said as he carried me bridal style to the hospital wing. "Are you gonna be okay? After what happened to Sirius?"

He looked down. "I'm... I'm not sure. He cared for Harry, Lana and I. I'm never gonna forget that. But at least he has company up there with Dad and Uncle James."

We arrived where Ron, Neville, Luna, Lana and Ginny were being treated in the ward. Ron was asleep, resting in his bed and so were Luna and Neville. Ginny's ankle was being fixed as Y/N put me down while Madam Pomfrey examined my wound.

"Well, well," Madam Pomfrey said. "Who healed this?"

"My sister and I did, Madam Pomfrey," Y/N answered nervously as he held my hand.

"No need to be nervous, Mr. Lovegood," She said reassuringly. "This was healed quite perfectly, actually. You're quite the healer."

I smiled at him as I took his hand and squeezed it. He smiled back and held my hand close to him.

"Although, I'd recommend for Miss Granger to rest," Madam Pomfrey said as she prepared some things. "You are welcome to stay with her."

"Will you stay with me?" I asked as he smiled.

"Of course, I will," He said as I moved the covers and he slid in the bed next to me. "You know what this reminds me of?" he asked in a whisper.

I giggled a little. "What was it?"

"Second year," He said. "The Polyjuice Potion, and you turned into a cat. After we brought you here, you asked me to stay with you. You were really adorable as a cat."

I giggled again. "I forgot about that. I was really glad that you were there with me. I loved you even then too."

"I loved you then too. And I will for the rest of my life." He kissed me quickly. "Good night, Love." He said as he pulled me closer.

"Good night, babe," I kissed him again before drifting to sleep.

Harry POV

Dumbledore had brought me to his office and explained everything about what happened with the prophecy, and how he regretted Sirius's death.

"It is my fault Sirius died tonight," He said. "I have kept things from you, Harry. Things that I should not have concealed. You have a right to know, but I put off telling you."

He took a deep breath and sighed. "Had I told you that Voldemort might try to lure you down to the Department of Mysteries you would never have gone there tonight. Sirius would never have gone after you. That fault lies with me. I hope that you can find it in your heart one day."

I ignored him and looked out the window. "Harry, I owe you this explanation, to show you the failings of an old man."

He went on to explain the connection between Voldemort and I, why he made Snape teach me Occlumency, and Kreacher's betrayal to the Order.

"Hermione and Y/N said we should be nice to Kreacher!" I retorted.
"They were quite right, Harry," He said. "Kreacher is what wizards have made him. He is to be pitied, not hated."

"Sirius hated him," I refuted.

"He didn't hate Kreacher himself. Kreacher was a reminder to Sirius of the house he always hated."

"Yeah, he really hated that place. And you kept him locked up in there!"

"I WAS TRYING TO SAVE HIS LIFE!" Dumbledore yelled, then buried his head in his hands. "It is time to tell you what I should have five years ago. No doubt you have wondered why it was that I sent you there and not to a wizarding family? I did it for your protection. You were in more danger than anyone realized, Voldemort was defeated, but his servants were everywhere."

He went on about how I was sent to Aunt Petunia and how I was protected there. Did he even know Addison was supposed to be my godmother?

"Did you know?" I asked.

The old man looked at me. "What do I know?"

"About Addison," I said. "My mother wanted her to be my godmother. Did you know?"

A strange look appeared on Dumbledore's face that I have never seen before.

Surprise.

"She was?" He asked. "Had I known, I may have put you with her rather than Petunia. But do you wish to stay with Addison, Y/N and Lana?"

I took a long moment to think about it before I said, "Yes,"

"Very well then," He said. "When you leave Hogwarts in a couple weeks, I shall let the Dursleys know you'll be staying with your godmother."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Those weeks passed by like a snap of fingers. Hermione, Y/N, Ron and Lana were dismissed from the hospital wing along with Ginny, Neville and Luna as they were perfectly fine now. The day had come for the End of Year Feast, but I still wasn't over Sirius's death.

"Come on," Hermione said as she held Y/N's hand . "Let's go to the feast."

I shook my head "You four go on. I want to be alone for a while."

Y/N looked at Hermione, nodded at her and looked back at me. "Mind if I join you? I need to find Luna."

"Me too?" Lana asked.

"Uh, sure," I said. Y/N slightly smiled and quickly kissed Hermione and pet Snuffles, who was in Hermione's other arm.

"Take your time," Hermione added to me. "We'll be here when you are."

She smiled at Y/N and joined Anne and Ron in the Great Hall as the twins stayed behind.

"We thought you might be feeling like this," Y/N said. "We're here with you. You're not just our friend, you're our brother now." He put his arm around my neck in a brotherly way and Lana did the same at my waist.

I smiled a little. "Thanks, you two."

A little while later, we ran into Luna, who was putting papers up on the board.

"Hello, Harry, Lana and Y/N." She greeted us. "It's the last night and I need to pack."

"Why are you putting up signs?" I asked.

"Oh, people take my things and hide them," Luna said. "I don't think they like me much. Some of them call me 'Loony' Lovegood."

"Who called you that?" Lana and Y/N said at the same time.

"Couple of Ravenclaw girls, a few Slytherins..."

"Names, Luna," Y/N said. "I need names. Why do they call you Loony, you are a delight to be around and freaking precious and adorable, I swear to God, I'm gonna ---"

"Y/N!" Lana said. "I'll take care of the Ravenclaw girls, I will explain, you do your way with the Slytherins."

"Do you need any help looking?" I asked.

"Oh no," She said politely. "It all turns up in the end. My mother always said things have a way of coming back to us." She knew I was still mourning and took my hand, and hugged Y/N and Lana with both of them kissing her head. "I think I'll have some pudding now," Luna said as she made a small wave and skipped to the Great Hall.

Y/N POV

Once again, we boarded the train home the next day for the summer, but this summer was going to be different than the rest. Hermione was staying with us for the summer and Harry was no longer living with the Dursleys. Fudge was no longer Minister of Magic since he denied Voldemort's return, and Hermione and I had promised Anne that we would visit her in the orphanage she lived in.

We spent our time in the compartment doing the usual to keep us busy, this time it was different without Fred and George. At least they are providing their services to the Wizarding World. Anne sat with us in there and played with Snowball along with Luna and Ginny. Of course, Hermione had fallen asleep and apparently so did Anne, who sat in between us and eventually laid down on Hermione's lap while Hermione snuck a kiss on my neck before she fell asleep on my shoulder. As we arrived at Platform 9 ¾, Anne was nearly crying since she was gonna miss us a lot.

"Oh, it will be okay," Hermione said. "Y/N and I will be sure to visit together. We'll even write letters if you want too?"

"I'd like that," Anne said with a smile and Hermione hugged her and kissed her on the head while I also hugged her and ruffled her hair, to which she giggled. "Take care of yourself, Anne. We'll miss you a lot."

"Thank you, Y/N," She said. "At least my birthday is coming up."

"Oh, when is it?" Hermione asked as she looked at me.

"July 6th," She said.

"Oh, we'll keep that in mind," I said as I wrapped my arm around Hermione.

"I'm so glad I met you both," She said with another hug as her caretaker arrived. "Have a good summer!"

The Weasleys left with Ron's wishes of a good summer as we were left. Luna was staying with us for a while so it was just the five of us waiting for Mum, who was flying as an eagle from Hogwarts. Eventually she arrived and greeted us, "Ready to go?"

"Yep," Lana and I said as Harry, Hermione and Luna agreed.

And now, Harry's new life with us began.
