Chappie # One :Kyda Fyo

"I need to train, there's no way I can beat Voldemort as I am right now." Harry rubbed at his scar tiredly, "My luck is only going to get me so far."

"Harry, whatever you do we're right behind you." Hermione put her book bag down and placed a hand on Harry's shoulder reassuringly.

"Yeah mate, whatever you plan to do, we'll do too." The redheaded boy glanced at the closed door at the bottom of the stairs. "You think they would let us join the order meetings though, I mean you've fought You-Know-Who more times than most of the Order members…and you're still alive!"

Harry sighed, he knew his friends only wanted to help, but he needed help from someone who could actually help. Hermione was a great researcher, and Ron was a great strategist… but this was a war. He needed someone who could help him learn to fight -and win.

"Hey Harry," Ginny smiled nervously, walking up to the trio. "Luna sent you a letter," she handed him the bright yellow letter, "I don't know why she sent it to me, but then again it is Luna were talking about…" Ginny walked back up the stairs laughing.

Harry smiled guiltily at Ginny's retreating form; she was still pretty upset that he had broken up with her… He just wished that she would understand -he couldn't handle it if she got hurt because she was with him.

"So what does Loony have to say?" Ron asked popping a chocolate frog into his mouth.

Harry gave the redhead a glare, Luna had saved them all more than once and yet the redhead still continued to make fun of her because she was different.

Hermione glanced at the direction Ginny had went, and said, "I'm going to go see what Gin's up to. You two had better not get into any trouble while I'm gone." Hermione smiled at the two boys and walked up the stairs.

Harry watched Hermione go, and looked towards Ron, "I'm going to go upstairs to our room, you coming?"

Ron shook his head no, so Harry shrugged and walked up to his room. Sitting on the bed he opened Luna's letter.

Hello Harry,

I didn't see you at the funeral, so I'm writing you now -This is Luna by the way. I know you were close with Professor Dumbledore, I'm sure you will see him again someday… nothing gone is ever gone forever.

Ginny told me you are not planning on coming back to Hogwarts… It sounds as if She, Ronald and Hermione also do not plan on returning… So I'm not returning ether. Daddy is going to spend the summer looking for Crumple-Horned Snorklacks… But since there is little keeping me here anymore -I'm going home. I was wondering if you would like to come with me, it may do you good to get away from here for awhile…

My pops said you could come as long as I took responsibility for you… My home is very different than what you are used to. It is also very far away, but we can travel back and forth using the Kyda-Fyo. (It's a large…doorway that leads to my home)

If you come, there are many things you could learn, the people from my home use a different type of magic than taught at Hogwarts. I'm sure you could learn how to use it…

Please think it over… I look forward to your reply.

Sincerely,

Lunesca Lovegood.

Harry closed the letter with a smile on his face, the people around here treated him like glass -he was never going to learn how to fight here... But the Order would never let him go with Luna. He sighed, he was stuck here. Harry smirked; he was stuck here unless he left before they had a chance to realize he planed on leaving.

He grabbed a quill and parchment to compose his reply.

Luna,

I would love to go with you. When are you planning on leaving and what would I need to bring? The Order would never let me go…so I'm not planning on telling them. I will leave them a note. The Weasleys and Hermione will be angry…but I feel I need to do this.

Harry

Harry handed the letter to Hedwig, "Can you take this to my friend Luna, Hedwig?" The snowy owl pecked his finger affectionately and flew out the window.

The next day Hedwig returned with a bright orange letter, Harry smiled fondly at his owl companion and took the letter from her offering claws.

Hello Harry,

I'm leaving on Wednesday; bring anything you think you may like to have with you. The only way to get to my home is through the Ministry of Magic, would you be able to meet me there on Wednesday? I'll wait for you in the lobby.

Sincerely,

Lunesca Lovegood.

Harry smiled, but then realized -today was Wednesday! He quickly packed all his belongings into his trunk and used his wand to shrink it. His seventeenth birthday had been two weeks ago, so he could finally do magic legally out of school.

"Hedwig, Can you stay here with Hermione while I'm gone?" The owl gave him an affectionate nip on the finger, "Thanks girl."

He quickly jotted down a note to the Order and his friends and placed it on his bed. After putting the shrunken trunk into his robes, the messy haired teen walked down the stairs to the kitchen, He smiled at his friends and grabbed a banana off the table, addressing his friends, he spoke, "I'm going to go back to sleep for awhile, I didn't sleep well last night." Harry rubbed his scar for show.

The group sitting at the table gave him concerned looks but let the subject drop.

Harry walked out of the kitchen and up the stairs making sure the group in the kitchen could hear him going up to his room. When he got the first landing he whispered a spell to silence his footsteps, and walked back down the stairs and towards the front door. Being careful not to wake up Mrs. Black, Harry opened the front door and embraced freedom.

He didn't have his Apparating license yet, but he knew how it was done, so he pulled his hood up to hide his face and apparated to the Ministry of Magic.

Luna spotted him right away, despite the fact that he was wearing a hood. She walked up to him and said, "Hey… You ready to go?"

He nodded and let her lead him to the elevator. Once in, she pressed the button that would take them to the department of mysteries. Harry panicked slightly and gave her a questioning look, "Why -Why are we going to the DOM?"

Harry cursed himself silently. He hadn't even checked to see if it was really Luna… it could be an imposter!

Luna smiled vaguely, "The Kyda-Fyo is in this department. Me and Daddy are the only ones authorized to use it."

The two stepped into the circular room, Luna looked Harry in the eye, "Hold my hand Harry."

He gave her a bewildered look but grasped her hand anyway. Luna spoke clearly to the room, "Kyda-Fyo."

One of the many doors in the room turned a misty blue color, similar to the color of Luna's eyes.

"Okay Harry," she paused, "There's something you need to know… Something important."

Harry gave her a questioning look, "What is it Luna?"

She smiled nervously and spoke, "My name is Rikku Highwind."

Harry pulled his hand back as if struck, He was in a war, how could he be so stupid! How could he have fallen for this? He growled "What have you done with Luna?" and pushed her up against the wall. Not-Luna yelped momentarily surprised at his action and the harsh look in his eyes. The arm that wasn't gripping her he used to hold his wand to her throat.

"I'm only going to ask one more time." He growled glaring at the smaller blond girl. "What have you done to Luna?" the only clue that the girl was even aware of her situation was the quickening of her breath. "Answer me!" he cried pushing his wand closer to her.

The blonds' eyes were wide with shock and a hint of fear, "I am Luna… it's just… Luna isn't my actual name –It's an alias I've been using for the past five years to attend Hogwarts. I would have gone by my actual name –but Daddy… He's sick you know? He was affected by si— a toxin." The blond paused, "He was affected by a toxin that made him forget things, It wasn't safe for him at home while he was sick…so he came through the Kyda-Fyo… and since I was grieving -My mother had just….passed on. I went with him." She babbled.

"Daddy is my pops brother, making him my uncle—" she started.

"You mean he's not your dad?" Harry asked trying to make sense of the situation. "Why have you always said he was your dad if he's not?"

Not-Luna gave him an inquiring look, "I've never once said that Daddy was my father though…"

"You just did!"

Not-Luna laughed, "Ooh! I get it! You all thought I meant he was my 'Daddy'?" she giggled some more, "No, nonononono!" she smiled up at him sheepishly; "His name is Daddy."

"Okay," Harry said eyeing Rikku suspiciously. "-but what does this have to do with you going by the name Luna?"

"Daddy was sick, and in his confused state of mind…he made up a whole new world inside his head. He dubbed himself Artemus Lovegood, and he named me Lunesca Lovegood." She paused, "I tried to tell him my name was Rikku, but he was so convinced…"

Harry smiled at her slightly, what she was saying was slightly bizarre, but for some reason he couldn't help but believe her. The green eyed teen coughed awkwardly and backed up watching the blond rub her now bruised arm. "I'm so sorry Luna!" he felt horrible, she was in pain and it was because of him… he was as bad as Malfoy!

His guilt must have shown because Rikku frowned at him, "Harry, don't worry! I'm fine! Really." She paused, "Now Harry, stop with the sad face! Your making me feel guilty and I didn't even do anything!"

Harry sighed and whispered, "I still had no right to hurt you like that Luna…" he paused, "I mean Rikku…"

"You're still the girl I befriended, whether you go by a different name or not. You're still the one who helped us fight in the DOM, and you're still the girl I've come to think of as one of my best friends… Lun-" He smiled slightly and corrected himself "-Rikku."

Rikku smiled up at him brightly, "You really mean it Harry?" giving him a sheepish look she whispered, "Sorry for springing this all on you like this…I would understand if you didn't want to come with me…" she looked at him sadly.

For some reason Harry couldn't stand to see the blond girl frown, it made him feel as if there was no hope left in the world. "I'll still go with you. Are there any other huge life altering secrets you wish to bestow upon me before we go?" he asked, smiling lightly.

"Nope, I'm mostly secreted out for the moment," She smiled up at him, "Try again in a couple days and we'll see." Giving him a concerned look Rikku asked "Are you ready to go?"

Harry smiled and nodded slightly. Okay so truthfully he wasn't ready, Harry would have loved to think about all he had just learned of, but there was no time. If the Order noticed his disappearance before he was completely gone, they would make him go back. "Let's go Rikku."

She gripped his hand once more and they took a step towards the glowing door, "Oh, one more thing Harry, when we get to the other side you will notice a couple differences about me."

Harry shrugged and the two teens walked through the Kyda-Fyo.

The door disappeared behind them and Rikku grinned proudly, "Welcome Harry," She paused and gestured dramatically to their surroundings, "To my Home, Bikanel Desert."

Harry looked around the desert in awe; he had never seen anything so…big! "It's amazing Lu—Rikku!" He glanced at the blond and gasped. "Your eyes!"

Rikku grinned, "You like?" she pointed to her green swirling pupils, "All Al Bhed have eyes like this, I had to use a glamour on my eyes while in the Wizarding world, my race of people is thought of to be extinct.

"Rikku, I can't help but notice that you seem more…" Harry paused, unsure of how to word what he wanted to ask.

Rikku just smiled, "Sane? Alert? Less loony?"

Harry smiled sheepishly, "Yea…"

Rikku took a deep breath, "Spira is sort of like the wizerding world, in the way that it's there, but only certain people can enter it… Spira is much more cut off from the world than the wizerding world though. The only reason you could come here at all is because you were holding my hand. If you learn the magic of Spira, you will be able to come and go like I do… but you will never be able to bring another person here, as you are not truly from here."

Harry gave her a confused look, "But what does that have to do with-"

"I'm getting there Harry." She smiled. "The thing is, my race of people, The Al Bhed… My race of people is only supposed to reside in Spira." She paused, "You see, we Al Bhed can never truly leave Spira; because no matter where we go, our souls are still connected to Spira in such a way that we get caught between worlds."

"So you can still see things in Spira when you are in the wizerding world?" Harry asked in confusion. "And that's why it always seems like you were off in your own world?"

Rikku smiled, "Bingo."

She paused, "You should also know that we are no longer on Earth. So, welcome to Spira, Harry."

Harry could only stare at his surroundings in awe. He was finally free –and wait! "What do you mean we're not on earth?"

Back at the Order headquarters Ron gasped, he had walked into his room to see if Harry was awake, but instead found a small piece of parchment in the place of his friend.

"Hermione!" he yelled running out of the room with the letter in his hand, "Hermione come quick!"

The bushy haired girl ran towards him and asked "What's wrong Ron?"

He silently handed her the letter.

To whomever it concerns.

I'm sorry. By the time you read this letter I'm already long gone. The war is coming, and I need to learn how to defend myself. Luna offered me such a chance. I'm not telling you where I'm going… Because I honestly do not know.

Ron and Hermione, I'm sorry for taking off like this… but this is something I feel I need to do on my own. I'm not coming back until I'm ready. You should go back to Hogwarts, it's safer there -and you still have stuff to learn… well Ron does, I wouldn't be surprised if Hermione already had the NEWT level work memorized.

Ginny, please don't wait for me. You deserve someone who can be there for you… That someone is never going to be me as long as I have a war to fight… You deserve happiness…you shouldn't have to put your happiness off for me.

Please don't look for me.
