(Author's Note: so this is my second story and it's about Voldemort changing from a brilliant student to an evil dark wizard, and his relationship with an OC. This will be very different from my first story because it's darker and it most likely won't have a "happily ever after." I hope you enjoy this story as much as you enjoyed my first one, and don't forget to review! ^_^)

Harry and Voldemort glared at each other with so much hatred in their eyes. They were in the Great Hall, and it was time for the final duel, just like the prophecy had said. The Great Hall was quiet and empty except for the two pf them with their wands raised at each other, and they were ready to duel to the death.

"So, you've come to die tonight Potter?" hissed Voldemort. His red eyes gleamed with rage.

"You're the one who's going to die, Tom" Harry told him coldly.

Voldemort narrowed his eyes."You dare to call me by that name?"

"Yes, I dare" replied Harry. The prophecy was right, Tom. I am your equal, and before I kill you I'm going to give you one last chance to feel remorse for your actions. I know what you did Tom; I know all about it."

Voldemort was getting angrier by the minute. How could this weak, foolish teenger possibly be his equal? But he remembered it, he remembered how he changed from a brilliant Hogwarts student to the most evil wizard of all time, and that is where our story begins.

~~~~~~~~~FLASHBACK BEGINS~~~~~~~~~

It was time. Tom Riddle was finally graduating from Hogwarts. He was quite satisfied because he did a lot of stuff that he wanted to do. He had created a few Horcruxes and did some research on dark magic. Tom couldn't wait to leave school and work on his plan for world domination. He couldn't do that at school under the watchful eye of the professors, especially Albus Dumbledore.

He was in the Great Hall, where the graduation ceremony was taking place, and he was sitting beside another graduating student, Amore Stewart.

"You exicted about graduating Tom?" she asked him.

"Yeah, I am" he replied calmly, even though he just wanted to skip the ceremony and get out of there.

I finally get to put my plan into action! he said silently, in his mind. And I can't wait! He glanced at Amore.

Amore, she's going to help me establish the new world order he thought. She's the best person for the job, plus she isn't all Tom this and Tom that, like all the other Slytherins around me. She knows when to talk, and when to follow orders and keep her mouth shut. Above all that, she knows a lot of magic, and unlike everyone else, she seems to understand me. Don't get me wrong, we're NOT friends or anuthing even close, she's just useful to me that's all there is to it.

Amore caught Tom looking at her, and blushed. He's looking at me, I wonder what's he thinking. I can't believe this, but I think I'm falling for him. I know that you probabkly think that I'm crazy, but it's true. Love happens in the most unlikely places. I want to tell him but I'm scared of rejection. I know that he's got big plans, and although I don't know what they are yet, I want to help him, and please him. And maybe he'll fall for me too...

~~~~~~~~~FLASHBACK ENDS~~~~~~~~~

"So how do you feel, Tom?" Harry asked him, he still had his wand pointed at Voldemort. "Feel anything yet?"

Voldemort didn't reply. He just stared at the floor with an emotionless look on his pale face. He remembered that after graduation, he and Amore settled in to her place, where they first stared to work on his plan of world dominiation. His transformation from student to darwizard all started there and he remembered it as if it was yesterday...

Well, how did you like it?
