AN: New chapter, but I'm NOT proud of this one. I just need to move it along so they can go home and have the actuall story start.
Oh, and here's a message for the Guest who thought putting a sister in here was stupid:
I get that you don't like it, but it's needed in the story. Don't call it stupid if you don't know what it's for. Besides, who is Tom going to bond with first, the boy who lived? The boys parents who he killed? Or a little girl who loves him and he hasn't done anything too? It's not like he's going to go all: "Hi harry, I tried to kill you, but forgive me cuz I'm your brother now."
Sorry about that Guest, I just really needed to get that off my chest.
I don't own Harry Potter
Tom looked around, trying to find his wand. When he couldn't, he tried to use his wandless magic. "Potter! What did you do to my magic?"
"I didn't do anything? What did you do?"
"Why can't you die properly?"
"Why can't YOU die properly?"
"You DARE!" Tom seethed
"Seeing as how we're both children, I do." Harry smirked.
Tom seemed to come to the same conclusion. He also realized that Harry was bigger than him. Why couldn't life be fair!
"This is YOUR FAULT, somehow…"
"Oh, really? How?"
"It just is! At least I didn't just walk into a forest to die!"
"At least my soul is in one PIECE!"
"Who even TOLD you about that?"
"People." Harry shrugged nonchalantly.
"I get that Potter, I'm not stupid!"
"I didn't say you were." Harry was having fun with his Slytherin side.
"Why do I feel compelled to yell childish insults at you?!"
Harry started laughing hysterically. Everyone was silent in shock.
"Oh…oh…oh man, I haven't laughed like that in forever." Harry wiped a tear from his eye. "Perhaps, Tom…"
"DON'T CALL ME THAT!"
Harry sighed. "We ARE children."
They were both silent.
Lily took this moment to run over to them and pull them over, both by their ears.
"WHAT has gotten INTO YOU TWO?! Apologize, now!"
"No, I refuse!" Tom said, staring into Lily's eyes.
The Doctor, Dumbledore rushed in and James followed behind. He went to calm Lily down. Tom growled at the Doctor that resembled Dumbledore, who sighed.
"Let us move to a different room, shall we?"
"James, where's-"
"She's in the Lobby with her Uncle, sweetie."
"Oh, okay, let's go." The four followed Dumbledore in a tense silence. They arrived in an office with several chairs.
"I am surprised that they can walk around so quickly. Usually, with this, the patient must undergo much physical therapy."
Lily looked worried. "What's wrong with them? It's like they are two different kids!"
The two 'kids' were currently sitting in chairs, glaring at each other."
"I believe they may be. When I questioned Harry, his last memories did not match up with his medical records. He also claimed to be 17. This is just a hypothesis, but they may have experienced a different world while they were in a coma."
"Harry, Tom, is this true?"
Harry sighed, looking back to his 'parents'. He nodded.
Lily gasped as James asked "What do you remember?"
"Well, for one, my name was Harry Potter, not Evans. I attended a boarding school somewhere in Northern Europe, or maybe Wales, and I was 17, and… my parents were dead." He said the last part softly, and they could barely hear it.
"Tom, is the same true with you?" Tom still glared at Harry and refused to acknowledge anyone else.
"Actually, Tom here was Tom Marvolo Riddle. He was the one to kill my parents." Harry glared back at Tom.
There was a shocked silence.
"Well, there isn't much we can do but wait and see if some of their true memories return to them."
"True memories!?" Tom spoke up at last. "These are our true memories!"
"Mom, dad, Harry, Tommy? What's going on?" They all turned to see a little red-haired girl standing by the door. She was rubbing her tired eyes and took that moment to yawn.
AN: Still taking name requests.
