(This takes part at Malfoy Manor two days after Harry, Ron, and Hermione stole from Gringotts)
The door to the Manor was opened. A slim figure walked inside, her frame backlit by a flash of lightning. The door closed with a bang that reverbrated throughout the expansive enterance area.
The newcomer bowed low to the floor, before finally speaking.
"Your faithful servant has completed your wishes. The false Horcruxes have been planted. Potter's trio has no idea of the real Horcruxes, beilieving that the Cup, Diadem, and Snake as Horcruxes.
Voldemort smiled with pleasure, gently stroking his snake with a long, white finger. The rooms other occupents stood silent with awe. How could a 18 year old complete what they have failed.
"Very good. I am pleased that you finally have done something worthwhile, after being undercover for so long."
The girl's face lit with delight from the praise from Voldemort.
He spoke again.
"You are dissmissed.Unfortunately, the Manor has no vacancies, you must share the room with your brother."
The girl nodded, and strode out of room, summoning her sleeping bag.
She walked the stairs to the third floor before finally opening the door.
Inside, she saw Draco Malfoy looking wearily outside. He turned suddenly at the sound of the door opening.
"Luna.."
They ran and hugged, brother and sister.
Luna and Draco Malfoy. _________________ heh.

Only eight years after Luna Malfoy was born, 13 minutes before Draco, it was obvious something was amiss. She constantly performed styles of magic, most of them classified as Minor Dark Arts, by just using her hand or thought, just as Tom Riddle did. If she went just half a day without placing some hex on a bird, or singing the leaves of a tree, she would become feverish and vomit until she performed more magic. It was one of the earliest known cases of the Wizarding disease Magic Pox, or Wand Pox.
They are now easy cures for it, but back then, eighteen years ago, they could think of nothing. Draco began to notice something was wrong, and was finally explained the situation when they were 9. He was very proud of his sister. When they became of age to go to Hogwarts, Luna was to be used as a spy to the Dark Lord. She donned the fake identity of Luna Lovegood, and tried to make herself known as a nerd and freak. It worked perfectly. Her father, Xenophillius Lovegood was actually a real person, but he was assassinated quickly, and Macnair, drinking Polyjuice Potion, became Luna's fake father.
It was she that placed the Imperius Curse on Crouch, no matter what the other Wizarding population and Harry's trio was let to beilieve. During the raid on the Ministry, she made a easy pass off as a good guy, dealing most of the damage to Harry's group.
She was proven intelligent, cunning, cruel, and resourceful. Perfect for a deadly Dark Wizard. _________________ heh.
Draco motioned for Luna to sit down.
"Well, have you misinformed Voldemort?"
Luna nodded, pride glowing in her face as well as fear.
"Yes, he thinks Harry and his friends don't know about the other Horcruxes, in reality they are hot on the trail."
Draco nodded, proud of Luna's daring act.
"Now I need to explain."
His sullen voice drew Luna's attention.
"Yes?"
"I know this won't be easy for you. What is your name?"
"Um. Luna? Luna Lovegood."
"Then why did you greet me as your brother."
"I...don't know."
"Exactly, you've been placed under the Imperius Curse. You are my sister, yet they modified your memory to beilieve your a girl named Lovegood. You've been used to harm Potter and his friends. You-"
Draco's voice trailed off, both of their attention drawn to door being blasted off the henges.
"Well well Luna," spat Bellatrix venousmously, trailed behind by Greyback.
Their was another thick explosion in the room, Draco having cast the Bombardment Charm.
"Hurry, we must go." He grabbed his broom and he a Luna got on, blasting a bay window apart and rocketing out into the night air.
"Where are we going?" asked Luna, clutching onto Draco terrified of the high altitude and breakneck speeds.
"We must pay a visit to Grimauld Place. We need reinforcements for this job." _________________ heh.
They had cleared the window, yet Bellatrix's shriek was still audible.
"Macnair, Wormtail, GET THEM!"
"Draco, we have company," shouted Luna, ducking low to avoid a curse.
"Hang...on..." he grunted, swerving low to the ground.
The air was quickly filled of explosions and blasts and red and green light, the Death Eater reaction swift and deadly. A Bonbardment Charm exploded next to Draco's broom, knocking Luna off, as well as nearly decapitating Draco.
"No!" shouted Draco, he reached out to grab her yet it was too late. She screamed and began to descend to the ground. Draco banked and entered a steep dive, desperately trying to reach his sister before time ran out.
Another explosion hit the tree next to the rapidly lowering Draco. He had the presence of mind to cover his face with his arm, sharp wood splinters ripping his skin. He slowly stopped and dismounted his broom, crushed by a wave of grief. Luna was lying there, slumped lifelessly on the ground.
"No.." He couldn't beilieve the turn of events. She had regained her memory, her mind, and her life yet was killed so quickly. Blinded by rapidly falling tears, he didn't notice the landing of the other Death Eaters. Or the curse that struck him. His body was launched into the air and he slumped next to his sister.
Bellatrix's shrieking laugh pierced the night air. _________________ heh.
