I hope you enjoy this story. This chapter is kind of short, but its just the first one and I wrote most of it in Geography class. R/R
Chapter 1
It would come any day now. Tom was sure of it. He had read all of the books that his mom had left him before her death, and he knew it all, almost by heart; there was no doubt in his mind that it would come, and that it would come soon.
And it did.
The envelope had been quietly slid underneath his door.
There was a coat of arms in the upper right-hand corner, one of a lion, a snake, an eagle, and a badger.
In emerald green ink was written
Mr. T.M. Riddle
21 Creekwood Road
The Orphanage
The Best Children's Room
Tom could only imagine the look on Ms. Ludson's face after reading 'The Orphanage.'
"Creekwood Foster Home," she would quickly correct someone upon hearing them call the two-story building an orphanage. "Orphanage is such an ugly word."
'The Best Children's Room.' Tom also had to chuckle at that.
His room was much better than those of his peers, but it was still nothing special, not nearly as luxurious as Ms. Ludson's room. As much as she feared him, her greed and conceitedness had always kept Tom from getting the best available if it meant she had to give something up herself. Also she could not risk the other children knowing about Tom's special treatment and possibly finding out the secret; he could never have anything too good, and she very rarely let him near any of the other children.
Tom opened the envelope and took out the letter within it.

As Tom folded up the letter and stuffed it back into the envelope, he smiled. One of his greatest desires had come true. Along with it came the greatest fear of everyone, everywhere.
So, tell me what you think, review, review, review. If I get enough good ones I'll definitely keep writing this. If not, I might anyway.
