Hello I am here with a new story :D
Prologue:
“Luna, do you love me?” He asked her frantically.
This is it. The final battle where everything could have a chance of being repaired, or else, destroyed completely. After she had finished off Avrey with ‘Avada Kedavra’, a pair of hands suddenly shot out and dragged her into the room of requirement. But she was not afraid, she should not be.
Ignoring the blood and dirt on their body, ignoring the cries outside, ignoring the fact that they are losing, and dying, she said her answer out loud and clear.
“Yes”
Neville Longbottom nodded briefly, but the tenderness and love was shown in his eyes clearly. And the pain, sorrow and tiredness. He was on the edge of giving up, she could tell, but it was that Gryffindor spirit and their love that kept him together. And he, the once stupid boy, would do his very best to change what he could.
“But, if in order to save the entire world, wizarding and non-wizarding, it is necessary for you to forget me, would you do that? Would you start all anew, without me, if that is my final wish? Tell me.”
Luna could not believe what she heard, she wanted to think of his words as a joke. A really terrible joke. But she knew that Neville would never joke about such a serious thing, especially with the current situation that they were in.
And thus, she made the hardest decision in her life.
“Yes”
Her voice was just a soft whisper, trying to mask away the trembling. She tried to stop the tears from escaping, but it was a failed attempt. Luna Lovegood never cried, not even when her mother had died, she was too optimistic. But now, she cannot stand it. Gone was the cheerful and eccentric girl (sure, she still is eccentric), war has caused many changes in all that was swept into it, including Neville. The boy in front of her smiled sadly and reached out to wipe the betraying tears away.
“Promise me you would not hate me?”
“How could you think that – never, never!”
She broke down right there, and the wizard had to hug her tightly in order to keep her together.
Just then, he reached into his pocket and took out an object. Staring into his eyes, Luna was shocked to see resolution blazing in his eyes. He helped her put the object on.
A time turner.
“But – but I thought we smashed the entire stock of the ministry the year before?” It was hard for her to keep the smile at the memory, and so she did not try.
It was then that Neville smiled a genuine smile, “Indeed, but McGonagall’s time turner didn’t happen to be at the scene at that moment, so it was spared of the same fate.”
Laughter broke out of her and she did not hold it back, she would not do so anymore. What is the use?
Silently, he seek for her approval and turned the time turner 21 times. He was unaware of the fact that she was staring hard at every feature of his face all this while, carving it in her memory. She would not forget him, but instead use this memory as a motivation to move on and do the best she could.
Just as she was sucked into the time spiral, she felt a small object being placed in her hand before the powerful force pulled her away.
“I love you, Luna” was the last thing she heard before the world turned black...
Aww, that is all for this :D Is it okay? To read the rest, do visit Fanfiction.net and search for “Special for you” and narrow down the details till it is the one written by “Sylverster”, namely me :)
Got an angel on one shoulder and a devil on the other
and it’s his good advice that I take.
I live with a sprinkle of a little sin
When the world is asleep I'm awake.
With the roll of my dirty dice
I'm only following the devil's advice.
I'll take your love and leave my kind regards,
but I never cheat at cards.
So you really think you're leading
when we tango across the floor.
It's only ‘cause my feet are out of sight.
Mine is the hand that spins you round,
Then it pushes you out into the night.
With the roll of my dirty dice
I'm only following the devil's advice.
I'll take your love and leave my kind regards,
but I never cheat at cards.
Chapter one: Back in Time
When she opened her eyes, she was alone in the room of requirement. A sense of loss overwhelmed her as her mind was filled with Neville. With apprehension, she hoped that no one would be in the corridor as she exited from the room of requirements.
But, being Luna Lovegood, lady luck was never with her. Thinking that everyone should be in their dormitories, she ran down the corridors, to where she thought that the staffroom was. However, when she ran round the corner, she collided with someone and sent both of them sprawling onto the ground.
“Ouch! I am so sorry, I wasn’t looking – “ Luna gasped at the dark-haired boy in front of her, who looked like he was of the same age as her.
“Are you alright?” His velvet voice would have captured anyone, being so charming and sexy. And it was this voice that made Luna looked at him straight in his perfectly sculptured face.
Abruptly, she was met with the deepest blue eyes she had ever seen, and for a while, she was entranced by the depth of them. But she forced herself to tear her eyes from his face and observed the rest about him. She looked up and noticed his slightly curled black hair; it was neatly combed and parted, in a style which belonged to 1940s.
Wait, 1940s? Oh god...
It was then that she realized that the boy was still staring at her face. Self-consciously, she placed a pale hand onto her face, “Is there something on my face?”
Wordlessly, the boy placed his equally-pale hand on her cheek, touching it gently before redrawing his hand, showing it to Luna.
With a gasp of horror, she realized that she was still covered in injuries from the battle. Which means...
“Blood” the boy whispered. However, he did not seem disturbed, but strangely amused.
Trying to mask her discomfort, Luna braved herself to ask the question in her head, “Sorry, but what year is it now?”
The young wizard looked up in surprise, “Why, it is 1944, don’t you know?”
Nodding, Luna managed a weak whisper of “Of course -” before succumbing to the homely darkness...
“Darling, are you alright?” An oddly familiar voice asked Luna gently.
With a groan of pain, she sat up abruptly, causing the throbs in her head to ring in defiance. As she winced in pain, the witch looked around her. She was in the hospital wings, and that boy is gone.
Mustering all her energy, she asked the kind school nurse who had brought her in.
“Oh, you don’t happen to mean our Slytherin head boy, Tom Riddle, do you? He is such a charming and helpful student...”
Luna was not paying attention at the plump lady’s words. Her insides felt oddly twisted and she felt like vomiting. She is stuck in this time zone. And no one is here to save her. Except for...
“Ah! Looks like you are awake!”
Just then, four people entered the room. One of them was Tom Riddle, while the other three grownups are most likely the professors here. In Hogwarts. In 1944.
One of the old wizard introduced himself as the Headmaster, Professor Dippet, and to Luna’s greatest shock, the other two wizards were the young professor Dumbledore and professor Slughorn. She mentally smacked her head as professor Dumbledore stared at her in outright curiosity.
Just then, professor Dumbledore spoke up, “Is that you, Chantelle? My dear niece!”
His acting skills were so good that Luna would have believed him, if only he was not calling her his niece, and that she really is Luna Lovegood, from the twenty-first century.
But, seeing that it was either go along with the professor whom she knew from the future, or to blow the cover and have to be catered off to the ministry for explaining her strange appearance, she chose the first option.
“Uncle Dumbledore?” With a gasp, she launched herself into the elderly man’s outstretched arms, ignoring the shock expressions on Professor Dippet and the school nurse’s faces, nor the amused look on young Slughorn’s beaming face, and definitely not the contemplating expression on young Tom Riddle’s expressionless face.
The sadness and the truth caught up with Luna and she started to sob in the warm hug of her supposed “uncle”, who only hugged her tighter and patted her in a fatherly manner. It has been a long time since Lord Voldermort took over that she had the chance to let her emotions out, so it was a long time before she stopped the tears that were gushing down her cheeks, murmuring apologies to the audience.
“It is alright, dear Chantelle. But might I ask why did you come to Hogwarts? And how?” Professor Dippet, though his expression was kind, he was demanding explanation.
Holding herself together, Luna weaved out a story and started telling the others.
“My father, a distant cousin of uncle Dumbledore, and my mother were politicians in Germany, they were killed because they opposed against Grindelward, and the enemies are after me. Many relatives whom I knew off were either killed or captured, so I took a portkey which my father passed me and somehow managed to transport into Hogwarts. I am sorry –”
With this, she reached inside her pocket and took out the lighter which Ronald Weasley had given her, right before the golden trio had left to search for the final horcuxes. Fortunately for her, they had led her to the headmaster’s office and passed their memories throughout all those seven years to her, explaining all the things that they were up to.
She held the lighter up and passed it to professor Dumbledore, who stared at it before an alarming sadness appeared on his face.
“Cousin Halesterio, he was among my favourite cousins, despite the fact that we rarely met. He told me of his plans on opposing Grindelward, I tried to stop him, but he rejected. And as a last resort, I passed this to him. A pity that -”
Luna had to admit, Dumbledore is an incredible actor, for he had fooled everyone else in the room.
Finally, Professor Dippet enquired Dumbledore what plans does he has for his “niece”, and the latter replied that Luna/Chantelle should stay at Hogwarts, for it is a very safe place, and also, she would be directly under his care. Everyone agreed and Luna nodded willingly. Better stay here safely and figure out how was she supposed to change fate while she is here.
Since it was already into a quarter of the year, professor Dippet suggests that she should be introduced to the school tomorrow. Of course, she would have to go through the sorting hat like the rest of the school. With this, along with Tom and Slughorn, the elderly headmaster left after biding her a good night.
A good night?! This is the worse night of my entire freaking life! Talk about weird!
Soon, the school nurse, Madam Prosia, left them
