"How will we know?" whispered Draco to Snape.

"There are many signs, Draco," replied Snape, "The Dark Lord has his ways."

Draco shifted uncomfortably. His legs were starting to cramp, and he was beginning to wonder if all of this was worth it, in the end. His new philosophy was to look forward and never look back, but somehow things kept getting in the way.

From where they were crouched, a bright, luminous star could be seen falling to the ground.

"That’s it," breathed Snape, wand at the ready.

Draco sighed, a little disappointed, and got his wand out too.

"What the hell is that?"

"Honestly, Ron…do you ever pay attention in class?"

"I’m surprised you should even have to ask, Hermione."

"You’re right. It’s a star. And oh, isn’t it so beautiful?"

"It’s just a rock."

"Shh…look at the way it’s glowing. You’d think it were alive. Oh! I wonder if there’s a way to preserve it? It’s such a shame to let it’s light slowly die like that."

"Just come on, Hermione, Harry’s waiting for us. Let’s go."

"Oh…well, alright, I suppose. It's such a pretty thing. Sometimes I wish I were a star."

"You already are, Hermione."

Luna had always felt a connection with the night…with the moon, the stars, the sky. She thought, perhaps, it was because of her name, but she knew it was something deeper. She knew, deep down, there was a real reason she was so tied to the night. To those sparkly diamonds in the sky, and that large, pale face which looked after her.

And this was the only time she was considered normal, by conventional standards. With the light on her face and her fair hair against the black canvas, she looked like a little child.

A beautiful, little child.
