Krestena's POV

Harry and Hermione managed to get away from Umbridge, who was taken away by centaurs apparently. Anyway we rode on therstrals to London. To the muggle entrance to the ministry. When we arrive, we find it deserted. Harry leads the way to the department of mysteries. We had some mishaps along the way, trying to find the right room. But thinks to Hermione marking the doors as we checked them, we soon found the right one.

We're now in the hall of prophecies, Harry leading us to where he saw my dad being tortured. All our wands are out. "You said it was row ninety-seven" Hermione whispers.

"Yeah" Harry says. Beneath the branch of blue-glowing candles protruding from it glimmered the silver figure fifty-three.

"We need to go right, I think" Hermione states. I look at the right shelf.

"She's right, look number 54" I say pointing to the number. Harry tells us to keep our wands ready. As he heads to the right. We follow, staying quiet.

"Ninety seven" Hermione whispers after a while. I look around a frown, there is no one here. Harry told us dad should be right down at the end, but we couldn't see from here. He leads us between the towering rows of glass balls, some of which glowed softly as we passed.

Still no sign of my dad and I am starting to think coming here was a bad idea. Ron calls Harry over. We all gather around to see a glass ball with Harry's name on it. "What is it? What's your name doing down here?" he as Harry.

"Harry, I don't think you should touch it" Hermione tells him as he goes to pick up the ball.

"I agree" I state gripping my wand tighter.

"Why not? It's something to do with me, isn't it?" he asks us. Harry lifted the glass ball down from its shelf and stared at it. Nothing whatsoever happened. We all gather around him.

"Very good, Potter. Now turn around, nice and slowly, and give that to me" a familiar voice drawls. I wipe around to see Lucius Malfoy. Black shapes were emerging out of thin air all around us and I curse silently.

"Where's Sirius?" Harry asks him. Several of the Death Eaters laughed. A witch said Voldemort always knows and Lucius agreed.

"Now, give me the prophecy, Potter" he says.

"Where's my father?" I demand glaring at Lucius.

"You've got him, I know he is here" Harry adds.

"It's time you learned the difference between life and dreams, Potter" Lucius sneers. "Now give me the prophecy, or we start using wands" he states. Harry tells him to, except the Death Eaters did not strike. "Hand over the prophecy and no one need get hurt" Lucius says coolly.

Harry and I laugh. "Yeah, right" he says.  "I give you this--prophecy, is it? And you'll just let us skip off home, will you?" he asks. One of the deatheaters tried to summon the prophecy, but I shielded us.

"Oh she know show to play" a voice cackles. The woman and Lucius start to argue. Harry comes up with an idea and we pass it around quietly. Lucius calls our attention again.

"Dumbledore never told you the reason you bear that scar was hidden in the bowels of the Department of Mysteries?" he asks Harry.

"What about my scar?" Harry asks.

"Well, this explains why you didn't come earlier, Potter, the Dark Lord wonder. Why, you didn't come running when he showed you the place where it was hidden in your dreams. He thought natural curiosity would make you want to hear the exact wording" Lucius states.

"So he wanted me to come and get it, did he? Why?" Harry asks.

"Harry, prophecies can only be retrieved by those about whom it was made" I tell him. "Voldemort wouldn't dare risk being seen when no one believes he has returned. So he set this up" I state.

"Smart girl" Lucius says. "Shame, you're a blood traitor like your father" he sneers.

"My father is a great man, unlike you" I snap.

"Haven't you ever wondered why the Dark Lord tried to kill you as a baby?" Lucius asks Harry. "Haven't you always wondered what was the reason for the connection between you and the Dark Lord. Why he was unable to kill you when you were just an infant. Don't you want to know the secret, of your scar. All of the answers are there, Potter, in your hand. All you have to do is give it to me, I can show you everything" he states.

"I've waited fourteen years" Harry says.

"I know" Lucius says.

"Think I can wait a little longer. NOW!" Harry shouts. We all shout 'reducto' smashing the shelves and run.

(Time skip)

We've ended in the room with the stone arch way again. The death eaters found us and restrained the others. Leaving only Harry and I alone as Lucius approached us. "Did you actually believe, or are you truly naïve enough to think that children stood a chance against us?" he asks us. "I'll make this simple for you, Potter. Give me the prophecy now, or watch your friends die" he tells Harry.

"Don't give it to him, Harry!" Neville shouts and Bellatrix shushes him. Harry sighs in defeat and goes to hand the prophecy over. When my dad appears.

"Get away from my daughter and god son!" he orders Lucius. And punches him. The order arrive and start to fight the death eaters. As the others are released. Harry, Dad and I duel side by side. We deal with Lucius and another death eater. Dad praises Harry for a job well done, when I notice Bellatrix pointing her wand at my dad.

"Dad, look out!" I shout and jump in front of him as a stream of green light leaves Bellatrix's wand.

"Krestena!" dad and Harry shout. As the green light hits me in the chest. The last thing I see is Bellatrix run as I fell into my dad's arms. My world goes dark.

Third Persons POV

"Krestena!" Sirius cries as he holds her. Remus races over and hugs him. "She's gone!" he wails.

"I'm so sorry Padfoot" Remus tells him. "Where's Harry?" he asks. Sirius looks around and notices Harry is gone. "Damn, get the others out of here. We'll deal with things here" he tells him.

"No, I've lost Krestena. I will not lose Harry too" Sirius states passing Krestena's body to Remus. "Please get her out of here" he tells him and runs off to go search for Harry. He finds him being protected by a golden statue. While Dumbledore faces Bellatrix and Voldemort. He growls and joins the battle. Facing Bellatrix, wanting her to pay for killing his daughter.

But she and Voldemort got away. But not before Fudge and the aurors saw them. At Dumbledore's word, Sirius apparated away before the aurors could restrain him. He went back to his house and Remus lead him to where he had placed Krestena's body. And left him alone to grieve in peace.
