Author's note: I decided to make this a Drarry fic because of the law against gay marriage being overthrown in CA. Yeah! I would have submited this earlier but I had just moved and not had wifi for ages :(
Chapter 1: Finding out
I was walking to Dumbledore's office when I heard something. I hid behind a statue just in time to hear Dumbledore mutter,"Ok I need to go kill some muggles as 'Voldemort'" I was so shocked about it I stayed there until Malfoy found me. Malfoy said,"Finally figured out about old Dumbles?"I nod dazed as he helps me up. "Why are you helping me? What was with Dumbledore? Is Tom Riddle good? What side are you on? What side am I on?" I ramble on. He looks confused then says,"I am helping you because I would like to be your friend. Dumbledore has always pinned the crimes he has comitted on Tom Riddle. So yes Tom is good. I am on whatever side you are on. As for what side you are on that is for you to decide."
Then I realize,"Does that mean he is the one that killed my parents and tried to kill me?" He nods sadly,"Maybe I should tell you the story. It all started when Dumbledore was young. His true love was killed by a muggle car. Ever since he has hated muggles and true love. So when your parents came along Dumbledore, knowing about Lily's soft spot towards Severus, tried to make James hate Severus. He did that so James and Lily would never find true love with each other. He failed since you are here but he also totured the Longbottoms. He in your first year pocessed Quirrel. In your second year he cursed you to imagine all the Chamber of Secrets thing. In your third year well Peter is Dumbledore's spy so that explains that. Fourth year was just a way to try to kill you he charmed the cup to put you in a coma. Last year was mostly real but Dumbledore had someone dress as Voldemort instead of him. This year nothing has happened so far. Before you ask he totured a lot of people to be mean to you and bribed his followers to be friends with you."
I tried to take it all in but apparently was not taking it well on the outside because Malfoy asked if I was okay. I nod and respond,"I'm going to talk to Tom." He nods,"Then you should call me Draco and I am coming too." I am startled,"So that means Ron is Dumbledore's follower? What about Hermione? What about Neville?" He responds,"Ron is, Hermione is a spy, and Neville is all for Tom." I sigh,"I kind of figured about Ron. What about the rest of his family?" He says,"Mrs. Weasley, Mr. Weasley, and Ron are on old Dumbledore's side. Ginny, Fred, George, Bill, and Charlie are on Tom's side." I stand up from where I had slouched to the floor sometime during the conversation. "I am going to see Tom." He stands from kneeling next to me and we walk to go to see Tom.
*At Tom's hideout*
"Hi Tom" Draco says as he walks in. I see a man that couldn't be over 30 sitting in a chair. He smiles and waves us over,"Hi Harry I trust Draco has filled you in?"I nod,"I was really suprised to learn that but not much I can do is there?" He sadly shakes his head,"No I'm afraid not. Here take this paper it lets you talk to me, Draco, and Hermione at anytime." He hands me what looks like a regular sheet of paper, from muggles? Draco chuckles at my look and says goodbye to Tom because we had to get to school.
