Chapter Fourteen: News clippings
"Have you seen the article about that new dark wizard?" That would be my mum talking to Tom. I am playing with Lily; she is still my best friend after all this time. But sometimes I feel like she and I just don't like the same things anymore. When I want to play qudditch she wants to talk. Though she does care for me very much she sometimes gets annoying.
The dark wizard they are talking about is named Voldemort. When I first heard it I knew who he was, Tom. That name, Voldemort, had started my torture how could I forget it?
Speaking of torture I have been lasting longer lately. It is like Curcio doesn't affect me that much any more it just gives me the same feeling I get from a knife. The cuts are still there. The one surrounding my mark is so warn that it is no longer seems to be as green as it was, the marks on my stomach still glow at me. And the initials... well I am feeling farther and farther away from her but I have not and never will stop making her initials right next to mine right where she belongs.
No matter what she is mine, my red angel she is my property she has been ever since we met. I might seem possessive but it is true. Lily will never help anyone except me.
Lily and I are playing chess. It is about the only game we agree on. I still rule at the game because battle tactics are close to qudditch tactics.
"Checkmate," I said. I always win I am not arrogant it is just the truth.
"James what do you think about this Voldemort guy?" Lily asked me.
Voldemort had been discovered about ten months ago. No one has seen him yet.
"I think Voldemort won't ever really take hold of the wizarding world He isn't a real threat," I said while looking Tom straight in the eye.
"We can only hope," My dad said sighing.
"Yes but some one will probably need to fight him. Have you been sent out to fight him yet?" Tom asked my parents.
I rolled my eyes, Tom would know if they had.
"No, but someday soon I think we will. I hope he will not come after us, it is a good thing that James and Lily will go to Hogwarts, they will be safe with Dumbledore." Mum said.
Tom seemed to cringe when he heard Dumbledore's name. Might he actually think that Dumbledore is a threat to him? I don't know but I hope so.
My parents talked for a little longer with Tom but soon he left with Lily.
It is the next morning and my dad is just starting to read the paper. He gasped and both mum and me are startled now.
"What is it Jacob?" Mum said.
He says nothing but throws down the paper. The main headline is: 'Voldemort Sighted.' Underneath the words there was a picture of Voldemort, a picture of Tom.
AN: I hate this chapter! Sorry I am in one of my hate the world moments and it isn't pretty. At least I get to vent on this story. To think of it I have been in these sorts of moods ever since I started to write this story. R/R!
