Turning away from Charles' dead, scorched body, raking my fingers through my hair. I walked back into the house meeting with shocked faces.

"Are you okay?" I asked, looking at the unfamiliar couple. "I'm sorry I put you all in danger like that. I didn't know he'd come here." I confessed honestly as Damon walked up to me. "It's not your fault, Luna." Liam assured.

"Are you Luna?" The older woman asked. She shared the same dark brown eyes and smile as Liam. On the rare occasion Liam actually did ever smile. "I've heard lots about you from Liam a- and around town. I wasn't sure if it was all just rumors until-" She started. "I can't imagine the types of things going around about me. I'm of no threat to you or your family. No matter how much Liam may annoy me." I joked lightly as Liam chuckled.

"That man forced me to kill him. Charles was a corrupt original who threatened everyone's lives. Your own sons." I expressed making them look over at Liam with worry. "Most of the rumors about original witches are lies. We aren't all dangerous and I can assure you that I would never lay a hand on anyone here." I expressed never tearing my eyes away from her.

"Charles killed Harry, Mom." Liam said, making them look away from me. "What? No. He died in a car accident." His father said.

"It wasn't an accident. He hired someone to kill him because he knew about something Charles did." He explained as his mothers eyes started to water. Liam saw her expression making him and his father console her. My heart broke at all they had endured all these years.

"Is all this fuss over me?" Harry smiled suddenly appearing in the room. He was standing in-between his parents as Liam continued to hold his mother as she cried. "Harry is here." I breathed making all three of them look at me.

"What?" Their father scoffed with emotion. "One of my powers is that I am able to see and communicate with the dead. He is right next to you." I explained making him look over to Harry hesitantly.

"Why are you all here?" He asked. "Because I thought Charles wouldn't be able to find us here while we thought of a plan. I was wrong." I said in defeat wishing I didn't have to kill anyone else. "What? Is he dead?" Harry asked quickly with a sigh of relief.

"E-Everyone who killed me is dead. It's over." He breathed, making me smile softly. "It's over." I gave an exhausted smile. Damon wrapped his arm around my waist pulling me closer. I leaned into him silently wishing we were home in bed for me to heal from all my wounds.

Harry looked up at the window across the room full of awe and amazement. His breath hitched as his eyes twinkled as tears collected in them. I knew it was time for him to move on remembering that same look on Sophia's face when she crossed over. "I... I think I see the light. It's beautiful." He breathed, stepping closer slightly intimidated.

"I'll have to take your word for it" I smiled. "I... I see Sofia and Kate." Harry said, making me frown. "Who is Kate?" I asked as Liam snapped his head to me. "What?" Liam asked quickly. "Harry sees a woman named Kate in the light." I said, making his lips part in shock. I took Liam a moment to find his words clearly overwhelmed by emotion.

"She was a friend from school." Liam explained sadly. "Tell Liam that his favorite spell book that I stole when we were kids is in my bedroom. It's hiding under my mattress with a letter I wrote to him when he moved out. I never had the guts to give it to him." He continued as warm tears slowly fell down my face before I nodded lightly.

"Thank you, Luna. For what all you've done for Sofia and me. You didn't have to help us and avenge our deaths, but you did anyway, and I will always be grateful. You and Damon deserve to be happy together." Harry said, making even more tears fall down my face as I held onto Damon.
