Authors Note: I'm back from a long hiatus, I'm sure some of you have long since given up on this one but I recently have gotten hungry to continue after devouring all the Harry and Luna Fics! I'm a bit rusty as I haven't written in a long while. So let's finish this!

Darkness engulfed Harry. Where am I?

Harry found himself sitting in a chair unable to move a muscle. He had no idea where he was and how he had come to be there. The blackness was palpable and was slowly making him nauseous. "Hello! Where am I!"

Suddenly there was light, and a voice that Harry knew all too well.

"Harry Potter. We meet yet again."

"Voldermort." Harry spat "Just what is this? Why have you brought me here?" He struggled against the invisible bonds that held him to no avail trying to set eyes on his nemesis.

"You're here because I wish it to be. Soon you will learn that I always get what I want in the end. Always." Harry couldn't help but shiver at the statement. He again strained to try and break free of the bonds still was staring at a blank stone wall, most likely some sort of dungeon he figured.

"So what, you brought me here just to tie me to a chair and kill me?" Harry screamed in anger. "Why won't you face me?"

"Harry, you shouldn't raise your voice when you have a guest. But I suppose those filthy muggle relatives your yours didn't teach you any manners." The amusement in Voldermort's voice sickened Harry. This was all a damn game to him and he was clearly in charge of the situation.

"What gue..." Realization hit him like a train. "No.." Voldermort laughed behind him and Harry felt his chair slowly rise and turn around. Tears immediately sprang to his eyes as he saw his Luna sitting wide eyed in a chair across from him. Voldermort held his wand at her temple with a cold smile on his face. She looked terrified but otherwise unhurt.

"Let her go, she has nothing to do with you and I. Do what you will with me but leave her out of it!" Harry was trying to be confident, it was gamble but he was hoping it would pay off and Voldermort would focus on him.

"Well there is where you are wrong Harry. Through this bond we share I have been sickened by these things I have been seeing and feeling coming from you! This girl is the catalyst for these atrocities. So to answer your earlier question. No I am not going to kill you. I am however going to kill her right in front of you."

"I love you Harry." A solitary tear rolled down Luna's face as she stared at the boy she loved.

"SHUT UP!" Voldermort screamed as he backhanded Luna in the face.

"Stop it you bastard! Kill me instead! Just please I beg of you don't hurt her she's an innocent in this." Harry fought to try and break free once more it was no use. He wanted to rush to Luna and save her but the only way that he could was to offer his life for hers and so be it. He would do it without regret so that she could live another day.

"Do you see what Love does to a person! you are willing to die for this girl that is the very definition of weak." Voldermort was seething with rage at being defied his fun.

Luna mustered all her courage and looked Voldermort directly in the eye and told him "You're wrong! Love is not a weakness, it makes us strong and gives us something to fight for. Harry was protected that day years ago by love and allowed him to survive your curse! You're just scared because you can't understand it's power."

Voldermort and Harry both seemed stunned by the outburst but Voldermort was quick to recover. "Me scared? Surely you jest? I fear nothing in fact I am fear itself. But if you're so sure about loves power let's see if his love can protect you."

Harry knew what was coming, there was nothing he nor anyone could do at that point. Looking straight into Luna's eyes they remained bright even knowing what was to come any moment. "I love you Luna Lovegood"

"And I you Harry Potter."

"AVADAN KEDAVRA" The jet of green light seemed to go in slow motion. Harry closed his eyes tight knowing for the rest of his life he'd regret watching what was about to happen. He simply could not bear to watch the life drain out of those oh so hauntingly beautiful eyes.

harry! Harry! HARRY!

Harry found himself on the ground covered in sweat. Luna knelt over him looking concerned. He lunged up and grabbed at her not wanting to believe what he was seeing.

"Harry it's ok it was just a nightmare." She said calmly.

Harry knew better. "Luna it was absolutely horrible you have no idea." He went on to explain in every gritty detail what he had seen. She listened intently and as he finished she drew him into a hug. She rubbed his back and he calmed down considerably as she held him.

"It was a warning Luna. I don't buy it was just a nightmare. What if that really happens to you? I could never live with myself." He looked to her pleadingly hoping she would understand. " I just want you to be safe and I don't think that you can be safe as long as you're with me... I think that we should..." He never got to finish that sentence as Luna slapped him hard across the face.

Harry just started open mouthed at his love her eyes blazing holes in him.
