EDITED HAH
"Now, you will do everything I want you to, and if anyone finds out then there will be the only person to blame; you."Riddle smiled evilly. "Get up!" Madonna got to her feet, annoyed with the outcome of their previous argument. Tom thought to himself for a moment:If I can use her to get all I wanted from the restricted places in Hogwarts, my work would be easier and no one would ever doubt me."I am sorry, Madonna," the boy began,"but coming here tonight was a big mistake, and now you shall pay the consequences."
Madonna went out of the dark corridor and entered the library unwary of her dark surroundings. She looked carefully if anyone was there in the stretched room, after finding herself alone in there, she went towards the restricted section and casted alhomora in front of its door, the lock cracked open at once. After searchingexhaustively the entire restricted section she found a novel titledSecrets of the Darkest Art,a book that holds knowledge of the horcruxes.
She took it out from the library, her heart in her throat, and lefttowards the forbidden corridor. Suddenly, she felt something in her mind. Something was constraining her to bring thatbook in the hands of Riddle. Tom's curse started to get weaker on her. She started getting back her consciousnes. A mysterious voice appeared inside her head: Don't let the dark powers control you, my child, you are much stronger than you think you are. You are meant to do something exceptional and remember that we will be always with you my dear.The voice faded away.
Madonna completely got back her consciousness after the voice had vanished, but she couldn't remember what was happening to her . All she remembered was of going into the Forbidden Corridor. Tom realized that his curse on Madonna was broken by someone but he couldn't imagine how. He quickly went out of the corridor and saw Madonna standing near its entrance.Imperiouscurse was so powerfulthat it had removed a part of Madonna's previous memories with Tom inside the corridor.
"What book are you holding in your hands? It's a dark arts book. So after coming in Hogwartsyou started practicing dark arts inside ourschool..."Tom asked her questioningly pretending that he didn't know anything about the book.
Madonna was shocked to see the book in her hand, "This book is from the restricted section, you broke into the restricted section and stole this book, isn't itPhillips."
I just don't know what happened, I don't know how this book came into my hand besides I don't know anything about dark magic.
"Headmaster Dippet will decide your punishment."Tom said cunningly.
"Wait,Riddle!"
"Why should I listen to you? " Tom started walking with the book in his hands.
"Please, Tom, you have to trust me, I really don't know anything about this."
"On holding the responsibility of a prefect given by Professor Slughorn it's my duty to keep everything safeat Hogwarts,give me the book I'll take the duty of keeping it safe, but if you ever speak it about this book to anyone then I shall be forced to inform it to the headmaster."
"But please keep it safe Riddle..." Tom turned back and went away through the darkness of the Hogwarts corridors. Madonna was startled, she didn't know how this book came into her hands but most of all why did Riddle become so considerate about her, why did he take the responsibilityof the book for her?
Maybehe wasn't that cruel or he was too serious about his responsibilityof a Prefectand didn't want Slytherinto lose any house points. Or maybe he wanted to have this book for him so he took the responsibility of it, she shudderedas she said these words.
Madonna's confusion doubled. "Why couldn't I remember anything of the book I was holding in my hands, and what was the book related to?" Her head flooded with pain as she made an attempt at remembering. She left forher dorm and tried sleep as the pain worsened.
The next morning, she woke up with a cheerful mood--after all, she was adjustinghere, she started to get fond of everything here in Hogwarts, although she nearlyforgother previous days memories. She put on her robes and started walking in the direction of the charms classroom. Suddenly there was an announcement that all students must gather in the great hall immediately.
Madonna wondered why they were invited in the great hall so abruptly in themorning. After all the students had finished gathering,Headmaster Dippet started announcing:"We are extremely sorry to inform the students that the lock of the restricted section of the library had been tampered by one of the students here. And as you all know,it contains books related to dark arts and all such thingsso I request the student who has tampered with it to come and report immediately to me otherwiseserious punishments will be given to the student when caught. Till now we haven't figured out whetherthe student had taken any books or not, but we will find out soon."
Madonna's face paled more than ever after she recalled her previous day's painful memories, she looked to Riddle after Headmaster finished his words. She saw Riddle was standing there calmly without any worries. So maybe he has returned the booksafely but she was still afraid that Riddle might tell Headmaster everything. After all the students left the great hall, Madonna made her way over to Tom.
"Have you kept the book safein the library?" she asked eagerly.
"Shh...did you lose your mind, or do you want both of us to get punished?" Tom asked."The book was my responsibility, you don't have to worry about it anymore." Tom went away.
But Madonna didn't get her answer. She followed afterTom. This time someone else stopped her; it was one of his friends.
"What's your problem with Tom?" the boy asked blocking her way
"I have to speak to himfor a moment. Who are you?"
"I am AbraxasMalfoy--his friend--he said he is busy now and doesn't want anyone to disturb him."
"I'm truly sorry, but I must speak with him."
"He said to me he doesn't want anyone to disturb him and if you don't listen, I'll have to use my wand stop you."
Insulted and deeply enraged, Madonna took out her wand."Try me if you want."
