Luna POV:

The next moment is a blur.

Ginny opens the door to show a few death eaters and dementors swarming the place. I open the cap of the invisibility potion, while hiding behind Ginny, who gasps before saying, "Expecto Patronum!"

A large patronus bursts out of Ginny's wand, in the shape of a pony. I drink my invisibility potion and get my wand out. I feel my body getting colder, and I look down to see my body gone. 

"Stupefy!" I cry to a death eater. I watch the death eater jump back, and I see a door behind him. Pushing the death eater aside, I open the door to find many cells filled with people. Behind me, I hear Ginny fighting all the death eaters at once, and I decide to try to help her.

"Expelliarmus!" I shout, making a death eater's wand fly out of their hand. I catch it and pocket it, and decide to try finding Harry, Ron and Hermione. Any moment now, they could be facing the dementor's kiss, and I don't want to waste any time. I run along the halls of cells, seeing familiar faces, none of them being Harry, Ron or Hermione. Determined, I reach the door to see another hall of cells, and I run down the hall, only to be swarmed by death eaters. C'mon, Luna, think of a happy memory...

"Expecto Patronum!" I exclaim, but nothing comes out. Think of something happy...being with Ginny!

"Expecto Patronum!" I cry, this time a hare patronus coming out of my wand. My patronus makes dementors fly away. I run faster this time, because death eaters around me start to try to find the caster of the patronus. Opening a door, I resist the urge to scream Harry, Ron and Hermione's name, and suddenly, I can't stop myself anymore.

"HARRY! RON! HERMIONE! WHERE ARE YOU?" I scream, expecting an answer. And sure enough....

"Harry, someone's calling us!" Hermione says in a weak voice. I run towards the voice, and I pump a fist into the air when I see Harry, Ron and Hermione in separate cells.

"I'm going to get you guys out!" I say, getting my wand out.

"Luna? Is that you? We can't see you," Harry says. 

"Here's a wand, guys, you guys should cast an invisibility spell on yourselves, because I don't know how to," I say, tossing them the death eater's wand through the cell. Harry catches it and casts an invisibility spell on him and his friends, and he casts a spell to make the cells break apart. We all run out, death eaters catching up on us. "Run!" I shout, and we run off towards Ginny.

"How did you break in?" Ron asks me out of curiosity.

"The Room of Requirement," I mutter, before casting another patronus spell on some dementors. We burst in on Ginny fighting the death eaters, but Ginny can't see us.

"Stupefy!" Harry shouts, before Ginny looks around frantically.

"We're over here!" I shout, and Ginny runs towards what she thinks is my voice. Suddenly, she gasps and points to my body. I look down to see my body coming back to normal. "HARRY!" I shout, "Do an invisibility spell on me!"

"I can't! I'm protecting Ron and Hermione! They don't have their wands!" Harry shouts back to me. I look around to see someone cast a shield charm, and I hear the footsteps of two people running towards the shield. I bite my lip. What should I do? There are five of us, and we only have three wands. Ron and Hermione are useless. Without thinking through what I'm doing, I run towards the shield I give my wand to a pair of invisible hands.

"You guys are better at fighting! You guys do it, we know the way out!" I shout.

"No, this is your wand! You use it!" The voice of Hermione squeals.

"No! You guys are better! Better you safe than me!" I say, before dodging a death eater's spell. I run back towards Ginny, and we both run towards the door and open it. I hear multiple footsteps going through the door.

"Harry! Ron! Hermione! Are you all in?" Ginny asks.

"Yep!" Harry and Ron says together.

"C'mon, we have no time!" Hermione says, and we run towards the hole. I hear death eaters coming towards us, and the next thing I know, I hear a cold, drawling voice.

"You really thought you could escape?"

We gasp as Lucius Malfoy jumps down the hole, and I see him fire spells at us, and to my delight, Ginny says, "Expelliarmus!" and his wand flies out of his hand. Then, we see him reach for something in his pocket, and he throws it to the ground, making dust fly everywhere. 

The last thing I can remember is something hard hitting the side of my head. Then, darkness.
