Mealtime, yay again I'm so ready for me and mum to be stared down as we eat.

Me not being in the same house as Harry, Hermione and Ron means lunch alone because I don't have other friends than them. I'm broken out of my thoughts when I hear someone yell.

"He's been sighted! He's been sighted! Sirius Black!"

I turn over and look at the Gryffindor table and then Hermione says. "Dufftown? That's not far from here." then someone asks if he'll come to Hogwarts, Seamus rudely says.

"His daughter is here. Yes he's coming here. He will recruit Athena and her mother. So sad her mother was very nice on the eyes."

Next thing you know all eyes are on me. I feel very small so I decide to go to the bathroom I wasn't very hungry anyway.

"Hello, stars I saw you come in here." I hear a voice. I get up and look and It's Luna! I smile and hug her.

You see my mum thought my dad's family naming them as stars were cool, seeing that her name is a planet after all. So they named me Athena.

Not wanting me to be a star or planet. Athena is a goddess of war, ironically she rules the planet, Venus. So dad me and mum all represent space somehow that's why Luna calls me stars.

"I saw you leave. Right when I was about to join you." Luna told me.

"Sorry I just don't like the stares. They make me feel small." I say she nods her head and then hands me a blue box.

"What is this?" I asks checking out the box.

"Open it to find out." Luna smiles but then she makes a shocked face and tells me.

"I'm so sorry, I wanted to see you open it. But I must go I have someone to meet." I smile and nod knowing it's Neville. before I know it Luna is gone. I look at the box and go to open it

Laying there is a note and it says. 'I know how much you love learning about nargles. But learning about them without protection is dangerous. I made you your nargle necklace. I added planet stickers and glitter because I know you like those things I hope you like it. Love your bestfriend Luna'

I screamed and picked it up jumping up and down. I wanted one so bad. I begged mum all the time but she always said when she has time she'll do it. I hurry to put it on I might look silly but I don't care. Everyone has an interest and this is what I'm into.

I'm soon in DADA class next to Harry. He's been comforting me, because everything with my father has taken a toll on me. Can't wait for him to learn what my father was framed for he won't be happy.

"Intriguing, isn't it? Would anyone like to venture a guess... as to what is inside?" Uncle Moony asks pointing to the closet

"That's a boggart, that is." Dean says.

"Now, can anybody tell me what a boggart looks like?" Moony asks again.

"No one knows." I say stealing Hermione's answer out of her mouth making me laugh.

"Boggarts are shape-shifters. They take the shape of whatever a particular person fears the most." Hermione explains I sigh because I was going to say that. Ron then asks.

"When did she get here?"

I shrug my shoulders even though I know why. Uncle Moony gets on with class.

Teaching us the spell he soon tells us to form a line. I try to get in the back knowing what my boggart is and not trying to let anyone see it. But somehow I get pushed to the front. Harry right behind me Ron in front of me.
