EXT. CLIFF - MORNING
The ocean crashes. Athena crouches by Dobby's fresh grave, which now bears a simple STONE: "Here Lies Dobby, A Free Elf." Athena ponders the mirror shard, turning it from sky to sea when:
Luna (O.S.): The sky has lost a star.
Many jump at the sudden voice.
Luna's image skitters across the mirror's surface and Athena looks up, finds her standing there clutching a small TRAVELING BAG, staring at Dobby's stone, Theo and Blaise behind her.
Luna: My father used to say that when a child died [She looks up, smiles] Funny how Mr. Dobby knew exactly where to find us.
Athena: Yeah. Funny. Listen, Luna, about your father, I don't want you to think I --
Luna: I know you understand why my
father did what he did, Athena. That's why we don't need to talk about it.
She continues to smile. Athena eyes the traveling bag.
Athena: Hogwarts?
Luna nods, looks to the sea.
Athena: It's not the place you left, you know. It's not the same.
Luna: Neither am I.
Athena turns to Theo and Blaise.
Athena: Are you two going?
Theo: Yeah
Blaise: Someone needs to protect Hogwarts whilst you're away
"Why am I crying? Why does this feel like a break up?" Marlene sobs into Dorcus shoulder. Dorcus pays her girlfriends back, trying her hardest not to laugh.
Athena gives a little smile, Blaise, Luna and Theo turn, then DISAPPARATES.
Ron (O.S.): Always good value. I'll miss them.
Athena turns, sees Ron standing nearby. He has BROWN HAIR.
Ron: What d'you think?
Athena: Wouldn't know you if I didn't know
you.
"He looks so weird with brown hair," Neville comments. "Cheers mate," Ron says sarcastically. "No problem."
Ron studies the mirror as Athena turns it over in her palm.
Ron: You want to tell me what that is?
Athena: Sirius gave it to me. He had a
matching piece. He said if I ever needed him, all I had to do was look into it.
Ron: You mean he could see you?
Athena: Something like that. I don't
know to use it. He died before I ever got it. The thing is...
Ron: Go on
Athena: You'll think I'm mental, but more than once, when I've looked into it -- I think I've seen Dumbledore.
As Ron reacts, Athena's eyes shift. Bellatrix Lestrange and Griphook, clutching the sword, approach from the cottage.
"Oh wow," Bellatrix says.
Ron: Bloody hell... that's a sight.
Bellatrix (Hermione): Well, how do I look?
Ron/Athena: Hideous
"Hey!" Bellatrix makes an offended face. "They ain't wrong," Sirius shrugs, Bellatrix throws a shoe, hitting him square in the face. "MY BEAUTIFUL HANDSOME HOT SEXY FACE!" Sirius cries.
Bellatrix (Hermione): Oh dear, I missed a spot, didn't I? Hold still...
Hermione poises her wand tip over the bit of ginger pushing through the brown of Ron's hair.
Ron: Couldn't do anything about that
bit in the back that's always flipping up, could you? Dead annoying --
Hermione casts Bellatrix's malevolent gaze upon him.
