"Well?" Azure raised her brow when he didn't reply, just stare at her.

"Everyone cares about my opinion. Even you." He said casually, after snapping out of his trance. There was something about her…

"You are wrong. So wrong." She smirked.

"And you are lying." He smirked back at her, getting up and walking to her.

She raised her brow at the dark haired boy, "I heard you are good with runes?"

"I know what I do." He nodded, narrowing his eyes lightly, wondering what she was going to ask.

"I need your help with something." She asked.

Tom took a few steps closer to her. "And what would that be?" he asked in a low voice. Weirdly, shivers went down Azure's back.

She gulped, "I have to show it to you in my room." She said quietly.

Tom smirked, "Oh. You're just like the others, are you not?" he chuckled, "Desperate to have me…" he bit his lip.

Azure snorted, "It's nothing like that." She stated, looking up at him.

Tom rolled his eyes, slightly turned off, "Whatever you say. Why should I help you?" he raised his brow.

She shrugged, "You just will."

"Oh?" he laughed, "Really?"

"Yes." She nodded and then walked past him, "Come." She waved.

Tom sighed and followed. He didn't like how this girl was controlling him. Yes, she was basically controlling him, telling him what to do, and he was the one who would tell people what to do around here, to his followers.

His followers, Tom gulped. What would they say if they saw them together? He smirked. They would look up at him even more. He had Azure McKan. Azure McKan couldn't have him, only the other way around.

They entered the girl's dorms and then Azure room. Since she was an honour student, she had a room of her own, also because of her… 'Condition'. She sighed as they entered the room and waved her hand, turning the light on.

Tom entered behind her and closed the door, looking around the room, "So, what is it that you need?" he asked quietly. "I…" she sighed, "It's better if I show you…" she mumbled. She then took her hands to the hem of her shirt, pulling it over her head and making Tom smirk. The smirk died when he saw weird stuff on her skin, "I was born with them." She said, referring to the runes, writings and drawings she had on her back, down to her hips, over her ribs and chest as well.

Tom stared at her. One part of him wanted to laugh and run out of there, tell everyone about her skin, it was a really tiny part, and he hated to admit that the biggest part found them extremely fascinating, adding to her attractiveness.

"Say something…" she mumbled. Tom focused her eyes on her face, now.

"They…" he gulped, finding himself unable to talk, "Do you have any idea of what they say?" he questioned, walking to her.

She nodded, looking down, "Some of them. I took Gaelic and Celtic, and some of those are North and some other stuff I never saw…" she muttered.

"I can help you with that." He sighed and traced his fingers over her back, "It has a lot of stuff… he murmured to himself.

"Dumbledore told me they say the future. I have some visions of stuff that happens later… And the runes change when the future changes, and that sucks." She huffed.

"Change?" Tom frowned, "How?" He asked. It wasn't possibly the way he was thinking.

"My skin changes, like a snakes' skin." She mumbled, "It bleeds sometimes, that is when something bad is going to happen. When the peaceful changes happen, it just dries and comes off." she shrugged.

Tom couldn't find it disgusting, like he should and like many would, only even more fascinating. This girl really was special.

"When was the last change?" He asked quietly, his eyes still examining her skin.

"Last night." She replied, looking at his fingers over her skin.

Tom almost pitied her. He couldn't believe how it would feel having his own skin ripped. It hurt to rip his own soul, but that was more of an emotional pain, not physical like this one.

"They say things about you." She murmured, talking about the runes like they were old friends.

"What do they say?" He asked, not really interested.

She sighed, "Something related with Dark Magic. Really Dark Magic. And Voldemont or Vol dy mort... I don't know." she shrugged.

Tom froze. It couldn't possibly be, "Tell me more." He said, trying to hide the shakiness his voice held.

"A war is coming, Riddle. Very soon. And you will be involved." She muttered.

Tom backed away from her, furrowing his eyebrows angrily, "You are nothing but a fraud." He spat.

Azure shook her head, "You know that it is true, what I say." She sighed, "I do understand if you do not want me to know of this matters, but I cannot stop my skin from informing me." She shrugged, "You can't continue whatever you are doing, Tom Riddle. It will kill many people, innocent human beings. Everything for power and nothing else." she glared at him.

Tom laughed coldly, "You do not know what you talk about." He smirked.

Azure smirked, "I do. Very well." She nodded, "You are so focused in your seek for power that you can't see you are ruining yourself, Riddle. You are a fool. Nothing but a fool." She shrugged.

Tom was angry. Well, angry couldn't describe what he was feeling that moment. No one. NO ONE ever had the courage to say that to him, hearing it for the first time shocked him and enraged him. He stalked towards her and took his hand to her neck, raising her off her feet. Azure gasped and held his wrist, "Tom!"

Tom smirked, holding her against the wall and higher, "You know nothing of me!" He hissed.

Azure shook her head and kicked her legs, trying to release herself. Tears had formed in her eyes, but it wasn't related with the abuse Tom was making. Blood dripped from her back, down to the carpet. Tom frowned and released her, seeing the girl fall to the ground with a frown on his face. He looked at his hand, well, red hand and raised his brows.

"What is this?!" He hissed. The girl couldn't answer. Her skin was being ripped, she felt it, and she hated it. She shut her eyes and gripped the carpet. Her mouth was open, but no sound came out, though the pain was visible in her features. Tom was panicked, was she dying? Could she breathe? What could he do?

Nothing.

Absolutely nothing.

He was useless, or so he thought.

Tom kneeled next to her and understood what was happening. The runes were changing, but why was the main question. Maybe a simple gesture or word could change everything... yes, definitely. Tom took his hand to the back of her neck and gently pulled her closer to him. The girl cried and whimpered, curled in a ball next to him. He could see her new runes covered pale skin eating her old one, replacing it and so, making her bleed. He shuddered at the thought of having his skin ripped. If ripping his own soul hurt, this being an emotional pain, ripping his skin would be the worst physical pain, he was sure.

Tom froze when his eyes travelled down, under the black lace bra she was wearing. He recognized the rune. So well. He backed away from the girl, leaving her looking at him through her blurry sigh. His darks eyes looked at her face, then back at her back, shock written on his face.

Tom dragged himself away from her and then got up, quickly exiting the room and leaving Azure, like most of the people had done in her life.
