For the last few months have been the worst. I stayed in my room most of the time and cried wet tears. I would scream from the others haunting my mind in joining you-know-who and I feared that everyone will want to hunt me- like aurors or dark-wizard catchers. I'd hate not being able to sleep and have the need to eat at all. I hated not being able to grow up. Luna often comforted me whenever she had the chance, but she'd gone out with dad to places like Diagon Alley and the ministry to publish the Quibbler. She'd left to Diagon alley yesterday or get my supples for school today and I'd stay up all night watching Luna sleep or study for my OWLS. I'd sometime look in the mirror and take off my glamour, seeing what my true self looked like. I had fangs in my teeth when I smiled with my glamour off. Even with it on, you still could see the little fangs on my teeth, but I rarely spoke and I'd always be crying or just sitting there, doing my own thing. I'd better get use to this. I thought. I'm going to be alive forever. I checked the time in the moon shaped clock and saw that it was 5:00am and the sun was just coming over the hill. I crept up the stairs and sat at the windowsill in the highest level of our house, dangling the hanging glass rose ornament Draco gave me for my birthday. It caught the sun's rays and lit up the room. I'd watch the sun go up and think of Draco and what he would do if he found out who I really was. Would he still love me or run away? I shook the disturbing thought away and grabbed my favourite book out of my bag. The photo album of Luna and I. I looked through the photos and smiled as they moved and looked at me. I'd memorised most of the quotes already and just seeing pictures of her and dad made my face light up in delight of sometimes bring wet tears to my eyes.
"Don't worry, my baby. You're going to live an amazing life. The moments you'll have with all your friends. Enjoy them." The portrait of my father's sister Greta spoke. She'd always been my favourite. She died a couple of years ago by poison from her own husband. Cruel, cruel man. I watched the clouds dance with the bright colours as it got lighter and lighter as the sun rised higher and higher into the sky. Today was the day I went back to school. Today was the day that I risked getting out of hiding and my secret will be easer to see. My eyes were yellow! Yellow? Out of all colours. Yellow was the colour my glamour changed them into. Who do you see that has yellow eyes? No one. What a day. What a day. I thought and read on into my photo album, waiting for Luna to get up.

"Hurry up Luna" I spoke, looking at the clock. 10am. I raised my eyebrows, grabbing clothes, book and stuff I'll need and folding them in my suitcase in such a hurry, I had to use telekinesis on some of it. Luna was rushing as fast as I was; or should I say faster. She was stuffing her belongings into her suitcase like there was no tomorrow. I soon helped her as I finished way-way, way quicker than her and we shut our suitcases, running downstairs, placing them in the living room, huffing and puffing.
"Well, that want easy" Luna huffed. I nodded and looked at her. I was breathless. I was practically already dead. Luna breathed and looked at me, smiling.
"Don't worry... Stick with me... Keep away Wrackspirts... No Nargles... All ok" she spoke, unclear through her puffed breath. I smiled and looked at father, who was standing behind us. Luna turned around and smiled.
"We are ready" she spoke, catching her breath. Father laughed. I exchanged looks with her and shrugged.
"What have we forgot?" I asked, confused. Father smiled and walked up to us tapping us on the shoulder. Luna looked at me and laughed, getting the joke father made.
"What's soo funny?" I asked. Dad smiled.
"Are you going to wear your pyjamas?" He spoke. My eyes widened as I looked at me clothes. They were black flannelette and long-sleeved.
"Oops" I spoke and rushed upstairs, grabbing a jumper and jeans. I placed on my bracelets, hair clip and radish earrings as well as a pair of muggle converses with red roses and a black background. I was ready. I thought and headed downstairs, flooding, disaparating to Kings Cross Station, where we ran in-between platform 9 and 10, reaching platform 9&3/4 and jumping on the train with Luna, keeping my head low, trying to not attract attention to anyone until I sat down in the full compartment with Neville and Luna. I smiled, looking at the door swing open with Ginny and Harry walking in.
"Hello" Luna spoke. I smiled, looking at Harry, confused.
"I would've thought you've been a prefect, Harry" I spoke. He nodded.
"I guess it's because of Voldemort's return..." he spoke.
"...You-know-who" I hissed.
"Sorry" he spoke, looking at me. "I'm surprise you aren't either." He spoke. I nodded.
"Pretty much same reason as you." I spoke. He looked at me confused and nodded.
"Wit beyond measure is a man's greatest treasure" Luna spoke dreamily, taking out her magazine and reading it upside down. Ginny and Harry exchanged confused glances and sat down, shutting the door behind them.

"So..." Harry spoke, trying to start a conversation. "How were your Holidays, Luna?"
Luna glanced up from her magazine.
"It was great!." She spoke. Harry nodded and looked at me, studying me with wonder. I looked down, trying to hide my eyes as I looked down, reading The Dream Oracle.
"I've had better" I mumbled, excusing myself and heading to the changing rooms to change into my school robes.
