Toms POV-1938
Wow. A strange man just walked in and changed my life… I always knew there was something special about me but being a wizard! This is amazing. But as he swept from the room something fell from his pocket. I was just about to call him back when I had second thoughts. I put on the necklace thing and examined myself, I looked pretty good… just as I was about to take it off I started spinning. I looked down and saw the thing round my neck spinning like crazy! What was going on!
I finally got out of that hell (it seemed to last for 3 hours!) everything looked different. I mean the orphanage was gone and I was stuck in the middle of the street with lots of big scary buildings! I followed professor Dumbledore's instructions to Diagon alley. I went into this little pub. I saw what I was looking for, I was about to walk across the room when there was a shout. "Bless my soul, it's harry potter!" at this my curiosity got to me I walked forward, I wanted to know why this person was so famous. Wait, he was only a boy. The same age as me this was crazy. So I pushed forward, maybe he could help me, I saw a huge giant thing next to him, but I refused to acknowledge him and moved straight to the boy. "hello, my names Tom Riddle, who are you?" the young boy smiled at me as if something was pleasing him then grinned and replied "I'm Harry, Harry Potter, I'm eleven years old and I'm just about to start Hogwarts, what about you?" I smirked "I'm eleven and yeah I'm gonna go to Hogwarts I think." Harry replied "Have you got anyone to go to Diagon alley with?" at that I mentally sunk. "No I had to come alone." He smiled at me and said "Why don't you come with us? It'll be fun!" I smiled back now, it was contagious. He wasn't like the boys from the orphanage. He was more, like me. "I need to talk to professor Dumbledore first though." I replied. The big giant thing then said "will do, I'll floo 'im. You go and sit over there." We went and sat down and hagrid, the giant, got us both pumpkin juice it was really sweet !
A couple of minutes afterwards I knew a lot about Harry and I even found out the date. It turned out I'd came forward to 1991 that meant I'd skipped 53 years ahead but still looked like an 11 year old boy! But anyway then a long, thin, silver bearded man unfolded himself out of a green fire. "ah this is obviously Harry, you look like your father, but with your mothers eyes." As he looked over me his eyes widened "and you're Tom um may I talk to you in a private room upstairs?" I nodded and he beckoned a barman over who took us to a room. Dumbledore conjured up 2 plush chairs and indicated for me to sit down. "so Tom, how did you get to this time?" he asked, looking confused. "I found this sir." I said holding up the time turner. He smiled "well, I should've known, you were always quite a mag…" he looked over at me his eyes growing dimmer. "well, Tom we're going to have to change what you look like so your old self doesn't recognize you and we'll have to buy you some new clothes." I realised this was common sense and walked down 10 minutes later with light brown hair that was cut below my ears, a slightly more angular nose and chocolate brown eyes. I was to be called "Blishwick, Stephan" Dumbledore was going to cast a confudus spell on harry, hagrid and all the others who had seen me since I entered this time so with that he sent me on my way.
After the side effects of the confoundus charm had worn off I was given a lot of money by Dumbledore saying "You're meant to be a pureblood you need money, plus this is the orphan budget and you're the only one." Me and harry went into Diagon alley with hagrid.
Firstly we went into gringotts where a funny little goblin took us to Harrys vault, he asked if I needed to go to a vault but I said I already had some. Then the goblin took us to vault 713 where he didn't use a key, he used his finger. He said if anybody else tried it they would be sucked in. that gave me and Harry the shivers. Then we went to flourish and blotts where we bought our school books and I bought a couple of others for light reading. Harry looked at me shocked but then decided to buy a couple more for himself. We then entered Madam Malkins, which was the robes shop. In the shop there was already a boy with blond hair and piercing blue eyes. "Oh hello, first year at Hogwarts as well?" he asked bossily I smirked and walked up to him to stand on the stool next to him to get my robes fitted "Yes, the names Blishwick, Stephan Blishwick. And yours?" The boy looked back at me as though he had expected me to be intimidated "Malfoy, Draco Malfoy. Are your parents pure blood?" he asked me and Harry. Neither of us knew what it meant so we just nodded. "Good, I don't think they should the other type in do you? They're not the same are they? What house do you want to be in anyway? I want to be in Slytherin, I think I'd die if I was put in Hufflepuff, don't you? Oh do you play quidditch? I do, my father says if I don't get picked for the team it a crime!" I looked at him gobsmacked. How can someone talk that fast? But then he paid for his robes and walked out of the shop. Me and harry looked at each other and cracked up he'd obviously been thinking along the same lines as me. Once we'd paid for our robes we walked out in to the streets of Diagon alley again and hagrid gave us both a huge ice cream. I looked up and asked hagrid "Ummm hagrid, what are Hufflepuff and Slytherin?" hagrid looked at me, obviously shocked and then harry goes, "Yeah! And what's quidditch?" at this hagrid exploded, making everyone within a five mile radius jump back. "WHAT'S QUIDDITCH! WHATS QUIDDITCH! YEH FATHER WOULD GO MAD! Oh Melins beard what's quidditch." At this he sunk into a chair so me and harry got one either side of him and he explained. "Hufflepuff and Slytherin are 2 of the four houses of Hogwarts, the other two are Gryffindor and Ravenclaw. How did you find out about them?" I then explained the boy, Draco in the shop. "oh, well Slytherin is where the pureblood supremists go. The ones who 'ate Muggles and muggleborn wizards." He said at out perplexed faces. "Hufflepuff is the house that is supposedly for the duffers, but in my opinion, your better in Hufflepuff than in Slytherin. Not a witch or wizard who went bad that wasn't in Slytherin. As fer quidditch, it's a sport that we wizards play. It's on like t' Muggles football." "Broomsticks?" I asked, I should've expected it really. "yeh broomsticks, the rules are very complicated but I'm sure you'll learn 'em."
When we'd finished our ice creams hagrid insisted of buying both of us an owl, harry was a snowy owl called Hedwig and mine l was a barn owl called Athena. Once we'd bought those me and Harry were bouncing up and down. There was only one last thing to buy… a wand! As we walked into the faint musty shop a man appeared out of nowhere "Hello, oh my you." He pointed at me "are not fooling me, but I foresaw this as a prophet told me, so I was prepared for this occasion." I was a bit confused but he gave me a wand and a tingling sensation fell over me. It was incredible! Then, once I'd paid, the man laid his misty eyes on Harry, "ah Mr. potter, you don't know it but you will change a broken man's life, but here I believe this will work for you." He handed harry a wand and from the astounded look on his face he had the same feeling I'd had "curious, curious" the old man said polite as ever, me and harry said in complete unison, "sorry, but what's curious?" he turned his misty eyes on us, "well its curious that you should be destined to that scar when its brother gave you that scar." You could see this scared harry so I just paid for the wand and dragged him out the shop. Once we were back in the bright lights of Diagon alley I saw the harsh reality, where was I going to go? I had no family and I wasn't even real in this era. So I was shocked when I saw an owl land in front of me with a note saying,
Dear tom,
It's professor Dumbledore, I booked you a room in the leaky cauldron for the two weeks before school starts. I hope you find the room satisfactory, it is number 16 and if you talk to the barman he will give you the kay and the detail.
Yours sincerely
Professor Dumbledore
I pulled the letter off the owl and scribbled a reply
Dear professor Dumbledore,
Thank you ever so much for all the support you've given me over the short time e've known each other, it's very kind to know there is someone out there to watch my back.
Thank you again
Regards,
Tom Marvalo Riddle
Once I'd sent the owl back I yelled to harry, who was just about to go back through the arch, "hey harry would you like to stay here until shool starts?" his face morphed into a huge grin.
Dumbledores pov
This is strange, tom is in both forms, I will get to the bottom of this. But maybye it will benefit him, being friends with harry. For now I will leave them be, they should try it out. He may never become evil. I shouldn't judge fast. Well, I will figure out a plan.
I hope you liked it thank you and please review x
