Ch15: The Un-Forbidden Forest

    It had already been a week since Luna had been back from Grimmauld Place, but she hadn't had much luck finding out about the Resurrection Stone. She still hadn't told Jenny and Ray either...     "What are you doing studying on a Saturday, Luna? Only Ray does that!"     "Hey! It's perfectly normal to study on weekends!" Ray snapped. What neither of Luna friends knew was that she wasn't studying.     It was Saturday morning and Luna had gotten up at the crack of dawn to read the only book she could find that even had the words "resurrection" and "stone" in the same sentence. This book...was The Tales of Beedle the Bard. Luna knew that she wouldn't find much information on the stone other than how to use it and how it was made by Death, but she read it over about seven times a day in hope it would give her an idea.     Luna slammed the book shut and walked up the staircase to the girls dormitory.

These birds, sometimes called the forest turkey, are the most numerous of all the turkey subspecies, numbering more than five million. The Aztecs domesticated another subspecies,  M. gallapavo gallopavo , the south Mexican wild turkey, and the Spanish brought those turk

"I wanna tell you something in private,"     "But, Dad," Luna said as she followed her father."This is Grimmuald Place, not Godric’s Hollow. What are we doing here?"           Harry didn't reply. As he opened the door of an empty bedroom for Luna to enter, he sighed. "Look, you know of the tale of the three brothers, right?" Luna nodded. "...It's real,"       Luna sat there in shock. After a minute, she said, "Wait, does that mean Babbity Rabbity is real too?"         Harry chuckled and Luna laughed too although her question had been serious. "Both James and Albus know, and it's very important for you to know too, as we are the descendants of the third brother, Ignotus" Luna's eyes couldn't go any wid
