III. Bones of the Father

Alone in the silence, the sifting dust

I kneel and touch my father's hand—

Cooling, cooling even as I watch

His soul damned to the darkenland

Where it belongs, go it must.

So smug, the filthy arrogant Muggle

Until the green bolts rose to slay

Them like lambs at a slaughter

Oh how I have longed, for this day

When he dropped to his knees and begged.

Did you relent in my mother's final hour

When she stooped so low to plead of you?

In her veins runs the blood of mighty Salazar

Yet you turned her away like a beaten dog

You look so scared— you know that's true.

You could have saved her—don't deny it

And what's your reason? She was a witch.

There is now fear in your eyes.

Shouldn't it be happiness, that we can finally meet?

Don't try pleading, father—my heart is as ice.

Now I stand, solitary, the last Riddle

They tried to put themselves above the true bloods,

And this is my final answer—

Avada Kedrava, for death is their due

Let them see who is the truly the master.

His name, my father's name, no more

I will be Lord Voldemort, flight-of-death

The bane of Muggles, of Mudbloods

To be there to mock their final breath

To clear the taint and strengthen the core.

I am Lord Voldemort

Tom Marvolo no longer

I have purified myself in fire

As the world will be in the coming battle

Join me, or face my ire.

Author's Ending Note: Obviously a scene from Tom's POV where he kills the Riddles, then a little angst where he thinks about his ambition (Evil bad guy alert!!!) Praises and flames welcome. Just give a reason for it. And now, BYE BYE!!!
