following harry through the ministry, they went into the elevator and waited.

"department of mysteries," said a woman on pa.

"this is it," mumbled harry as they stepped out. the lot followed him down the hall and into the door straight ahead. they entered the dark room, mumbling lumos, and seeing the countless amount of crystal balls with colorful clouds in them.

lily grabbed a hold of rons hand when she heard rumbling and the door behind them began to creep open.

harry started counting, looking for the place his vision had occurred.

he trailed off in front of them, nervously panicking and suddenly stopped. "he should be here!"

lily looked around. they must be prophecies. one in particular stood out.

"harry, this one has your name on it," she said, earning everyone's attention. harry went to her and she got out of the way to let him reach it.

he started to reach as if it was talking to him, lily found it fascinating as the rest grew uncomfortable and nervous.

"harry," hermione said as she noticed they had company.

the person in black robes and a mask started walking towards them, so she got ready in an defensive stance.

"where's sirius?" harry asked.

"you know, you should really learn to tell the difference between dreams and reality," said the person, removing their mask. the man resembled no one other than draco malfoy. "you only saw what the dark lord wanted you to see. now hand me the prophecy."

"if you do anything to us, i'll break it," harry threatened.

a laugh came from behind lucius malfoy. "he knows how to play," said the feminine voice.

trying to focus on what was going on, she noticed people in masks coming from behind and to the left of her and ron.

"bellatrix lastrange," neville huffed, growing angry.

"neville longbottom is it? how's mom and dad?" bellatrix taunted.

"better, now that they're about to be avenged," he pointed his wand at her and so did she.

"now, let's everybody just calm down," lucius became alarmed. "shall we? all we want is the prophecy."

"why did voldemort need me to come and get this?"

"you dare speak his name? you filthy halfblood!"

"it's alright. you're a curious lad, aren't you?"

they talked for a couple more seconds before they got the okay from harry, "now!"

"stupefy!" she yelled, stunning the death eater away.

once they were out of their way, the lot started to run.

lucius appeared in front of them and make them scatter unconsciously, ron and lily running the same way.

they met with hermione and harry at another end of the corridor and more death eaters came up to them.

"stupefy!" lily yelled as ron pulled her away.

they ran until they clashed into neville and luna.

the death eaters began to charge at them from the same direction and lily had enough.

"reducto!" she yelled, making them all zoom away and thousands of prophecy's broke on the ground.

it looked almost pretty.

"lily! back to the door!" yelled hermione, pulling her as neville grabbed luna.

they ran through the corridors, racing against the falling prophecies, and burst through the door, only to fall into an dark abyss and suddenly stop for mid second before falling onto the ground.
