The True Riddle
-Chapter One : Remembering-
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
:Hogwarts School, 8:30pm Monday:
Albus
Dumbledore had just shown Harry Potter
his
memory of himself and Tom Riddle long ago when Tom
was
just 11 years old and living at Mrs. Cole's Orphanage...
The
memory started Dumbledore remembering his and Tom's
past,
which is where our story truly begins...
:Mrs. Cole's Orphanage, The past...:
Dumbledore
was at the Door of Tom's room, "Good-bye,
Tom.
I shall see you at Hogwarts.", said Dumbledore, as he was
about
to leave.
"Thank you!", yelled Tom after Dumbledore.
Dumbledore
seemed surprised and asked, "For what
Tom?"
"F-For the Gold, sir...", spoke Tom cautiously.
Dumbledore
smiled and nodded, in which he then took
his
leave from the door, letting the boy Tom to ponder
all
that had just happened.
:Mrs. Coles Orphanage, Leaving:
Dumbledore
walked to the front door to be caught up with
Mrs
Cole.
"So...
he'll be... he'll be going to the school with you then?",
inquired
Mrs. Cole.
Dumbledore
smiled and shook his head, for a moment Mrs.
Cole
looked heart-broken.
"Do
not worry." said Dumbledore. "He will most certainly be
going
to Hogwarts, he just will not be going with me."
Mrs. Cole suddenly appeared over come with joy.
"Thank
you sir, and when shall he be going then?",
she
asked.
Dumbledore
appeared to be thinking of what to answer until
finally
he said, "Tom wishes to come himself without my help,
so
I shall abide by his wishes and allow him to come on his
own."
then at that note Dumbledore left.
:In London, Walking down the street:
"So...
do you believe him the one?", suddenly asked a
mysterious
voice from Dumbedores mind as he walked down
the
streets of London.
Dumbledore
chuckles until answering the voice, "I do not know,
we
shall see won't we? He does seem capable enough though,
doesn't
he?"
"I
don't think it's him, how can it be?", spoke the mysterious
voice
again. "How could that boy be the One?
Dumbledore sighed until saying, "Well, if he is then I do hope..."
The
Mysterious Voice cuts in, "Oh you hope too much! If you
don't
want it happening then don't let it!"
Dumbledore
smiled, "Yes, I assume that I will have to just 'not
let
it'. Good-Bye...
Dumbledore
had appeared to be about to speak the voices name
when
the voice disappeared, and Dumbledore was left to continue
strolling
down the street that he found interesting for it's name,
"Yummygum
Street".
:Mrs. Coles Orphanage, Later that evening:
Tom
had just finished packing his stuff even though it was clearly
not
even close to time for his trip to Hogwarts. Tom looked at his
work
with a grin
"There, that should do it." said Tom, again looking over his work.
Then
Tom saw it, the very thing that Dumbledore had found in
Tom's
dresser without even looking into it. Tom picked up the box
and
pondered what to do with it.
"Professor
Dumbledore asked me to return this stuff to the others...",
said
Tom as he had already began calling Dumbledore as a
professor.
"Should
I return the stuff?...", Tom asked himself. "It's not like
Professor
Dumbledore is here to make sure I do it...".
Tom
pondered what to do with the box until finally, he emptied it's
contents,
gathered them up, and began to go from one students door
to
the other anonymously depositing an item from the lot he had until
there
was but one item left, a small egg one of the other boys had
found
one day while they were on a trip. Tom studied the egg for a
moment,
as he stood at the door of it's original owner, and then clutching
the
egg in his hand he ran back to his room.
"I
don't Fucking care what Professor Dumbledore say's, the rest of
that
shit was nothing! But this one... I'm not fucking giving this one
back!...
It came to me, even if Steven found it, it was meant for me!"
screamed
Tom, in which he then bundled it in clothes and placed it within
his
trunk.
Tom
then reached over and grabed both the envelope and bag of gold
Dumbledore
had given him earlier.
"Well,
I guess it's time to go buy my new school supplies. I wonder
what
Diagon Alley is like?", pondered Tom as he got up, crossed the
room,
and exited.
