The Dark Princess and the Death Eater
(Prologue)
The year is 1980, and Tom Riddle's wife is giving birth to a baby girl. Now you are probably thinking, 'did Voldemort kidnap a woman and impregnate her'. Well you would be wrong. Tom Riddle fell in love with a girl while he was attending Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. She was a Ravenclaw, but much more Slytherin then anyone else in Slytherin, accept for Tom Riddle. The Ravenclaws name is Zora Petridis. The moment Tom realized that he was in love with Zora was when, he was torturing a third year gryffindor for calling him a freak who can talk to snakes. Zora walked around the corner of the dungeons and stopped when she saw Tom and the third year.
"What are you doing Tom" Zora asked.
Tom jumped startled and slightly frightened when he heard her voice, thinking he was caught using an unforgivable curse on a third year. When he turned around he immediately schooled his features not wanting to show any sign that she had startled
him. "Zora, what are you doing down here in the dungeons" Tom said, and was finding it weird that he was scared that she would run away from him and get someone. For some reason he did not want her to be scared of him and run away.
"Tom where you using the cruciatus curse on that boy"
"yes" Tom said finding it difficult to look Zora directly in her eyes. "What did he do" asked Zora. "He insulted me, and called me a freak". "Why would he call you a freak Tom"
"BECAUSE HE CAN TALK TO SNAKES" the third year boy yelled, hoping that Zora would run away and get someone to help. Zora gasped and looked at Tom in awe, but Tom didn't see the look of awe on her face, he was too busy looking at the floor, not willing to see the looks of disgust, hatred, and fear on Zora's face. "Is that true Tom can you talk to snakes". "Yes it is true, I can talk to snakes". Tom stood there waiting to hear her running away from him, but the sound he heard was not something he thought he would hear. Screaming, Tom turned around to see the third year boy screaming on the ground and crying. Tom looked up to see Zora standing over the boy with her wand out and glaring with murderous eyes at the boy. "It is very rude to call people names with gifts as magnificent as talking to snakes" Zora said in the most calmingly deadly voice that Tom has ever heard anyone talk in. When Zora was done with her fun she let off the curse and moved to the boy's ear and whispered, "If you ever say anything about what happened here tonight I will hunt you down and feed you to the werewolves in the forest", the third year boy nodded his head vigorously and ran away crying. The third year boy running away knocked Tom out of his shock and he turned to look at Zora standing before him dusting off her cloak as if nothing had just happened. Tom was about to ask Zora why she would do that, but before he could Zora interrupted him. "Would you like to go with me to Hogsmeade this weekend and have a butterbeer than maybe some dinner". Normally Tom would hex someone for interrupting him but he could only say one thing. "Yes".
Over the years of being together Tom had fallen more and more in love with his dark love, And a few years after Hogwarts he became the Dark Lord Voldemort with his Dark Queen by his side. Zora and Tom both had created Horcruxes so they would never have to leave each other's sides. And in 1980 they are about to give birth to their first child.
Tom is pacing outside of the door to their bedroom in Riddle Manor while one of his Death Eaters who is also a doctor in St. Mungo's is in there with his wife. Thirty minutes later he hears the cry of a baby. When he hears that he bursts through the door to see his wife holding their darling, beautiful new born daughter in her arms. "Isn't she beautiful Tom" Zora says, "Yes, just like her mother". Zora smiles up at him and pulls him down for a kiss. "What should we name her" Zora Asks
Tom looks down at their daughter who looks back up at him with big brown eyes, and smiles down at her. "We will name her,
"Hermione"
