Chapter two: Meeting and Family History
Tom Riddle and his niece arrived at the Potter Manor. Harriet and Jacob Potter welcomed them in graciously. James Potter on the other hand scowled with all his little five year old might as he watched from the far corner of the entryway. He noticed the little girl and wondered who she was and why she was in his house.
His mother answered his unspoken question, "James come here and meet Tom's niece Lily. You and her are the same age. Come on now don't be shy." Victoria tried to coax James out of his dark corner but to no avail. Any one related to him must be as bad as he is, James thought. Lily on the other hand thought James was cute, as cute as a five year old was to another five year old.
Voldemort was taking the whole situation as a learning experience for Lily who was the only one other than himself in his family that was magical. His father had left his mother before he was born. And when he left out in the street she found one of her old friends, Michael Evans. She was pregnant at the time and was afraid that he would become just like his father.
Voldemort was in a way like his father, not that he would ever admit it. Instead of him hating all magical folk he despised any one less than a pureblood. His mother left him at the orphanage for that reason which in all irony made him like his father. In this time period Michael and Elizabeth, Voldemort's mother, had fallen in love. Soon after she had Voldemort they got married and had a child named Mark. Mark was a squib but Michael didn't know that for Elizabeth was a witch because she did not want this marriage to fall apart like the first.
Elizabeth as you can tell was not like the average Slytherin. While her house was against all muggleborns and muggles she had been their friends. Only because of her ambition and blood did she become a Slytherin.
The couple was overjoyed at the birth of their child. And faster than they had expected Mark was full grown and married. He married a woman named Michelle. Mark and Michelle had two children, Petunia and Lily. Michelle loved flowers and fought for her daughters to be named after what she adored.
Sadly Elizabeth Evans was killed shortly after Lily was born. The cause of the death was never found, and the only sign that ii wasn't a natural death was the look sheer terror on her face. At her funeral a man came up to the Evans and introduced himself as Tom Marvolo Riddle, Elizabeth first son. After some background checks the Evans welcomed him into the family.
The only reason that Voldemort let his recently discovered family live was because he had found out that Lily was magical. How did he do that you might ask?
He hired one of the teachers break into Dumbledore's office and find the list of coming Hogwarts students. That way he could kill all students of impure blood before they even set foot on school grounds. To his surprise he found his niece's name on the list.
Thus the beginning of a plan started to form in Voldemort's mind. He would teach the child to be like him and when she was old enough she could help him rule the pureblood world that they would create. First is had only been working with her morals but at five she was old enough to begin to recognize the enemy; mudbloods, halfbloods (other than themselves), and mudblood lovers such as that old fool Dumbledore and the Potters.
James finally walked over and loosely grasped Lily's hand and muttered, "hi."
"Hello" Lily said as she bubbled with excitement, "will you be my friend?"
The girl seemed nice to James but it could be an act just like her uncle, but before James could answer his mother burst in, "of course he will"
And that is where they became acquainted with each other, The Red Angel and the Gryffindor heir.
