Chapter one

General POV

At the platform nine and three quarters a young teenage wizard with black hair and smoky blue eyes known as Tom Riddle awaits for the time to board the Hogwarts Express. Soon enough, his peace is interrupted by his most faithful servant Abraxas Malfoy. But not as usual the lanky blond is dragging a small Brunette dressed in a plaid shirt, skinny jeans, and cowboy ankle boots with western design on the sides in bright Mexican colors.

"Abraxas Malfoy! You let me go this instant you turd!" the girl hisses in a very southern accent pulling back from him so hard that her bandanna in her hair almost comes off if it weren't for the hair pins holding it the damned thing would be on the ground. "Can I trust you not to run off again L ?" Abraxas asks cunningly as the girl scowls at him and jerks her arm away.

"yes" she says her southern accent thick as ever as they make their way over to the young dark lord. Abraxas gives a slight bow to tom as he says " M'lord I trust you had a nice holiday?" Tom nods with a slight smirk at the girl. "Yes I did though enlighten me , who's this loud mouthed girl?"

Abraxas sighs while the dark lord looks the girl up and down finding her insanely skinny. "This is my cousin Lorenna Belle Lewis also known as major pain in my arse." He says earning a hard kick in the shin from his cousin. " I can introduce myself thank you very much. And who are you ?" she says haughtly at Tom her expression dark.

" I'm Tom Riddle future lord Vlodemort." He says with a dark smirk to let the girl know she better learn her place or he will break her in the worst ways possible. To his shock she lets out a humorless laugh. "You're the "Fierce" dark lord my cousin has been bragging about? Hell we have Chickens bigger then you back home!" she says laughing so hard she's doubled over with tears.

"You find this funny?" he growls at her in that steely calm that has her cousin nervous but is also slightly amused finding it insanely difficult not to snap her little bandannaed head off. " Insanely funny." She says having that same dark air about her that he has. Tom flinches inwardly noting that she probably can see right through his tough façade.

" I'm going to go find a seat before the train gets full." She says turning on her heel heading for the massive bright red train. Tom's snake Nagini slithers up on to his shoulder and hisses to him in parseltounge " She would make a fine dark lady for you master." Lorenna freezes up having heard the snake.

She turns around to face them and hisses back in southern accented parseltounge " I wouldn't date much less marry this arrogant prick." After that she storms off to go find a compartment. "Damn master you must've gotten really under her skin for her to hiss at you like that."

Tom nods curtly before going off to find his own compartment. Of course with his luck he would end up in the last compartment with lorenna. "Oh joy lord Pouty pants is here." She murmurs to a ferret that's curled round her shoulders and the snake on her wrist. To his surprise the two animals aren't trying to kill each other probably by some charm lorenna cast on them.

"Oh joy I'm stuck with the country hick." He replies snarkily shoving her booted feet off the seat so he can sit. After an hour of glaring at each other much to the other death eaters amusement he dismisses them and says to her " This year won't be fun for either of us if we keep hating each other."

"Agreed. Shall we start over?" lorenna asked in that sweet southern accent he is slowly growing to love. "Of course. I'm Tom Riddle sixth year at Hogwarts." He says with a slight dark smile. "I'm Lorenna Belle Lewis sixth year transfer from Dallas Dark Arts Academy." She says impressing him a bit as she already knows so much on the dark arts.

After their delayed introduction she launches into a full scale lecture on a thing called a Horecrux and how he could use it to never die and gain even more dark power. "Wow L if we didn't start over I don't think I would've figured that idea out."

"Of course. Your intelligence on the dark arts isn't as advanced as mine seeing as yours has started off as a hobby and mine was trained and drilled into me from birth seeing as my parents were followers of Grindelwold ." she says with pride because if Grindelwold hadn't fallen she would've been a devoted follower like her parents.

"Grindelwold? Your joking?" he says even more impressed. "No joke…and …-"she starts to say something but Tom's lips met hers in a hesitant kiss that she deepened surprisingly enjoying the feel of his soft lips against hers. And that little kiss would've turned into a full out make out. If only Abraxas hadn't come to alert them that they were almost to Hogwarts.

"Come I think you will like Hogwarts." Tom says breathlessly pulling back as Lorenna pants softly surprisingly turned on by his raw power. "Of course" she says as breathless as he is before leaving the compartment to go change into her school uniform as they arrive at the Hogwarts Station.
