"Tom you don't have to do this" Harry pleaded with Tom, but no he wasn't Tom, he thought Tom was a teenage boy, a boy that still had a soul he was no longer Tom, he was lord Voldemort, he sneered "you can change you don't have to do this I can help you" he heard Harry say, it made him chuckle Voldemort saw something in the corner of his eye, something familiar then he saw her she was helping a student from the rubble of a fallen statue he saw the girls wavy raven hair fall around her shoulder it couldn't be her he was told she left when she turned around he knew it was her he saw Lestrange come from behind her when she heard the student scream she turned but wasn't fast enough and he watched as she dropped to the ground her hair falling around her in a halo he saw a gold chain around her neck and for a second he saw a glow he saw Harry look to the source of the glowing it's like time stopped and that's when he saw the sand swirling around her body multiplying and covering her completely and in a flash of gold light she was gone he looked to harry and for the first time he saw a boy not an enemy but a boy he made an orphan a boy that didn't have a choice "harry I will never change I can never change what I've done" he watched Harry raise his wand he did the same both the of them firing the killing curse there magic clashing in a stream causing them both to fly back from the force of their magic the last thing Tom sees is a dimpled smile and bright blue eyes that could see right through him he could feel the curse rip through him he could feel his soul ripping apart and fading away he could feel himself drift away and become cold he could've changed everything for her. she made everything different she was different. The last thing Tom felt before he was completely gone was emptiness the same emptiness he felt before he met her and after she disappeared.
Tom was making his rounds before he'd have to go back to the dungeons, as he saw a flash of gold light bounce off the stone walls he walked towards the source, finding his way towards the courtyard he saw the strange glow in the shape of a person the light started to fade away the closer he got. Tom saw a girl she had curly raven hair he illuminated his yew wand and kneeled down next to the girl her head, she was like any ordinary girl,but he felt something,he felt her magic pulse around them both, it felt foreign and different compared to his own it was light but had a power he's never felt he wanted it but at the same time he felt protective over the feel of this magic her magic he looked at her face taking in her features she had a slender face with slightly rosy cheeks, her nose was small, she had long dark eyelashes that kissed her cheeks, her features were elegant and angel like what he thought Snow White would look like, he rolled his eyes at himself. he remembered the fairytale from the children at the orphanage they believed in those ridiculous stories although he couldn't help but wonder if there were some truths to the story he remembered that Snow White could only wake from true loves kiss he laughed at the notion of love it was a weak emotion he could see her chest rise and fall from how close he was to the girl "this is ridiculous" he whispered to himself as he bent down closer and laid his lips against the mysterious girls full lips when he pulled away he felt a sharp sting across his cheek when he looked down he saw the girl sitting up and backing away from him "what do you think your doing trying to take advantage of me" Tom held his throbbing cheek she slapped him but she woke up he shook the thought from his head no it's just a stupid muggle fairytale "where am I" she asked as she looked around he couldn't believe this girl he stood and held out his hand to the girl to help her up but she didn't take it she stood on her own checking her surroundings he saw her smooth her skirt down, she wore a worried expression "Well you are at..." before he could get another word out he heard footsteps he didn't hide but for some reason he felt compelled to keep this girl safe to hide her when Tom saw the familiar lit wand he internally groaned Professor dumbledore when he appeared to be coming this way Tom didn't say anything besides nod a greeting to the man "good night mister riddle I think I can handle it from here" the Professor said before turning his attention to the girl.
