Chapter 13:
When they all reached the Headmasters office Snape and Harry sat across from Dumbledor and Tom in Harry's lap. Harry and Tom were looking at Dumbledor curiously, the old Headmaster then put the tips of his fingers together and said "That was quite a performance Mr. Riddle"
Harry's brow furrowed in confusion and Tom glared at the old headmaster.
"Sir?" Harry's voice was uncertain.
Dumbledor sighed "Harry, Tom is Tom Riddle, when he was five"
Harry looked down at Tom, pain filling his eyes. Tom didn't want to, but he looked up into Harry's hurting eyes. "It's true, Harry, I am Tom Riddle, or in many cases Voldemort" Tom sighed waiting for Harry to take out his wand and curse him five ways till Sunday.
"Why?" was what Harry chocked out instead.
Tom sighed and looked up about to explain something when Dumbledor butted in "It is all my fault Harry, we had ..er. okay Tom wanted a potion to regain his old body but we had . um"
"I already know about Severus" Tom said quietly "I'm actually rather proud, he is a true Slytherin" Severus himself had a tinge of pink on his cheeks at the praise.
"Well, yes, Severus switched Tom's potion so that he would lose his memories and be five years old" Albus said a little uneasy, something uncharacteristic for the kind old headmaster.
"It was supposed to erase my memories?" Tom asked a little bewildered.
"Yes" Albus answered furrowing his brow.
"Well then Severus, your losing your touch, I didn't lose my memories" Tom confessed.
Harry's eyes nearly bulged out at this "WHAT? YOU MEAN YOU WERE SANE THE WHOLE TIME?"
"Yes" Tom meekly said, as though he were truly five again.
"Wh-" a thought suddenly struck Harry "Why didn't you kill me? You had the chance, plenty of chances"
Tom looked up, obviously not expecting that "At first I thought about it, but then when you showed so much kindness to me and I saw how you were treated I couldn't go through with it."
Harry was shocked at the honesty Tom's eyes held, the Dark Lord who was turned five had a chance to kill him and he didn't.
"Why did you stay with me then?" Harry wanted to know.
"I wanted a second chance, I wanted a childhood, something I never got to have" Tom looked down, again "Like you never had"
Harry couldn't think anymore, he had to go, somewhere, anywhere, to think. "I have to go" Harry said dropping Tom on the floor and bolting, no body dared stopped him.
Tom looked thoughtful then turned to Severus "Severus, I believe you were making the antidote?"
Severus nodded. "Good" Tom said then turned to Dumbledor "I need you to know that your plan worked, I did change"
"How did you know I had a plan?" Dumbledor asked in slight amusement.
"The same way you knew I would change" Tom replied with a shrug "I will take the antidote, and I plan on coming back, if you will let me"
"Come back?" Dumbledor asked confused.
Tom turned to Severus with a smirk "You have a second chance to get the potion right Severus, the one that turns me five and erases my memories"
Severus nodded "Your going to take your second chance then?"
"If Harry will forgive me" Tom said sadly.

I know it took me forever and it's short. I'm sorry, I've been busy. And I even started a new story called Brother Dear. It was a good idea and I could pass it up. OH AND REVIEW PLEASE.
