A/N: This is before HBP so it is now officially AU, this is going to get quite graphic later on, and much death as well, it will eventually have romance, but not for a while yet. This is going to take a turn to the dark in a few more chapters and we will finally know the name of the 'King of Evil' for those who don't know who he is. ;) I'm in the mood to do this story, for those of you who have read the HBP you know why, this is going to become much darker, and may eventually go to the M rating, but I still hope you will enjoy.

Reviewer Response:

JamesPotter13: yep, Fierce Deity is one of my favorite characters as well, you'll see more of him later on. With the other legend of Zelda characters it will be a bit yet, but you've seen two at the least already and they were not reincarnated, happy guessing. I think it's around the same length, and most chapters will remain about this length, hope you enjoy this chapter.

Harry Potter and the King of Evil

Chapter 2: Who are you?

Harry and Tom both arrived outside the gargoyle stone statue which served as the headmaster's office. The man that had been sent to get him was nowhere to be found. He vanished, or at least left the two of them o their own. The man had said that Snape would be waiting for them, but as both Harry and Tom looked around they didn't see him.

"Great, just great. Of course the slimy git, just decided to leave us on our own. It's Snape though so that's normal. 'Canary Custards'." Harry said angrily, unfortunately the gargoyle didn't move. "Great that man gave us the wrong password. You know of any sweets?"

"Sweets?" Tom asked looking confused.

"Yeah. A sweet is always the password to get into his office. Let's try and guess." Harry said and began naming off every candy he could think of. He named acid pops blood pops, cockroach custards, lemon drops, everyone of Fred and George's products, then he began muggle candies, none seeming to work. Tom helped as much as he could, but knew of barely any sweets, and the ones he did know were already used by Harry.

'Are you sure it's a candy item?" Tom asked Harry for what had to have been the tenth time. They had tried guessing on the password for over ten minutes, Harry eventually giving up sweets and trying to do anything he could think of. Tom joined in.

"It normally is, but it must not be this time, we've named every blasted candy ever created." Harry said bitterly.

"Should we just wait for Dumbledore then?"

"I suppose so. Unless you can think of anything he would name it as?" Harry asked hopefully.

"Nope. Sorry."

"It's okay, we can wait, it's not like Voldemort is going to walk in at any mo-" Harry and ex-Voldemort watched as the gargoyle statue abruptly stepped aside and after Harry and Tom had a little chuckle stepped inside. They were both disappointed to discover that the office was empty aside from Dumbledore's phoenix Fawkes. To Harry and Tom's astonishment it flew over to them circled twice before flying back to his perch. A phoenix would only go towards someone of the light or pure of heart, it thought that Tom was trustworthy, it made Harry a bit more relieved. The office was pretty much the same as it was when he trashed the office, a few of the trinkets were missing, and a few new items had replaced them. Items including an odd looking device which was blue and looked like a smaller device of the thing whalers used. There was also a boomerang and slingshot in a glass case next to the hook object. Why would Dumbledore have these devices? Where was Dumbledore for that matter, Harry knew that whenever he was expected Dumbledore was there, so where was he? A bunch of thoughts similar to these played in his mind, Tom looked apprehensive and kept glancing around making sure Dumbledore wouldn't try to blast him as soon as he was seen. Harry and Tom noticed a book, not just any book, but one that said Hyrule, of course both were now curious, and they were about to go look at it when a voice from behind them caused Harry to spin around and Tom to stare intently in the opposite direction.

"Harry, how are you? I received your notice, but was delayed, something happened to Severus, he collapsed to the ground in what looked like pain, clutching his left arm, where the dark mark was located. I took him to down to get looked at. Not too long after he while Madame Pomphrey was trying to find out if anything out of the ordinary was wrong, his body seemed to have just disappeared. I contacted Azkaban and sure enough the death eaters that had been locked away under tight security just up and vanished, leaving no trace of how they could have escaped. I believe that now that Voldemort is gone, his evil servants are gone as well, all due to the dark mark. I'm sorry I was late, it seems as if we may be needing a new Potions Professor, at least I've found a new Defense against the dark arts teacher, he was the one who brought you here. I heard some strange news though, you came with someone else?" Dumbledore asked looking at Harry while Harry was trying to occlude his mind. He didn't need to however, for Dumbledore decided not to abuse his trust. "Now come tell me what happened and then I can meet your friend, who has taken an interest in one of my favorite books, now come tell me everything."

"It's okay Professor."

"Call me Albus, we've known each other long enough to be on a first term bases." Dumbledore said eyes twinkling.

"Er yes. Anyway it started out as a normal dream, about the veil, when it abruptly changed. It was different instead of looking through Voldemort's eyes, I was almost next to him, not physically of spiritually, but I saw everything. Voldemort was just standing in middle of the room glaring at another man, I didn't notice the other man at first because I was too busy looking around. The room that Voldemort was in was almost like that of a temple, I have no idea where it was located, but it was magnificent, or would have been if it weren't for the hundreds of dead littering the floor."

"What?" Dumbledore asked, not liking where this was going one bit.

"Dead. Hundreds, they weren't muggles thought they were witches and wizards. Pureblood witches and wizards, Voldemort's followers and every single one was dead. They had expressions of terror on their faces and it was quite a shock to see, the only ones missing were the death eaters in Azkaban, Snape, and from what I could tell Wormtail. The rest of them were dead, and Voldemort was actually frightened, as he stood before the man. I finally noticed him. There is no other word for it, but the man is evil. His very presence was that of evil, and I wasn't even in my body at the time, so imagine what it must have been for Voldemort, or anyone actually being in the room. The man was big, he wore armor and had a sword, he looked more dangerous than Voldemort had ever been, Voldemort told me it was he who killed his followers and was getting ready to tell him."

"Told you?" Dumbledore asked suspiciously.

"Yes. We actually had a civil conversation and he told me what had happened, apparently all his life he had been listening to a voice in his head who had told him was Salazar Slytherin, that was why everything happened. The man was who had been in his head, was the one getting ready to execute him, and I can tell you now it was not Slytherin. I happened to notice that on a pedestal were three jewels. One was red like a ruby, another was sapphire blue, and a third was emerald green, I believe they had something to do with what ever that guys name resurrection."

"Resurrection? How could you know that?"

"He told me. He even asked for forgiveness for all the things he had done, he didn't act like Voldemort at all he was almost civilized, he was a different person. During the conversation, yes we both talked to each other, he mentioned something of Hyrule and the three Triforce of the Gods, they were what he had been trying to get all his life. He didn't know the man's name, only that he was known as the 'King of Evil'. You know anything about this?" Harry asked seeing Dumbledore pale.

"I'm not sure. I'll have to get Mr. Ru, he knows a lot about the history of the world, he's even older than me, if anyone knows he will. I'll call him up in a few moments, now, what happened next?" Dumbledore asked cautiously, never knew when you'd say the wrong thing and Harry would blow up at you.

"We chatted a bit, and by the end of the conversation I felt sorry for him. Imagine that, I felt sorry for that murderous snake." Harry said ignoring the cough that Tom had just did.

"Well, at least he's gone, not in the way we expected, but still it works."

"Um, not exactly."

"Not exactly what? Dumbledore asked peering at him dangerously.

"Two things, the first is that just by looking at this new person, my scar hurt, worse than with Voldemort."

"So this is the Dark Lord you must vanquish. It was never Voldemort, but this new enemy. I'm sorry my boy, but your task is not yet done."

"When is it ever." Harry said angrily. "I sort of figured that out as well, once Voldemort told me this new man had been in his head. The second thing was Voldemort may have been defeated, but I have reason to believe Tom Riddle is still alive. Professor, allow me to introduce you to my friend." Dumbledore watched in shock as he saw the face of the boy who had been looking at his books.

"Hello, Professor. Good to see you again." Tom said politely.

"Tom?"

"Yes, it is I. You need not fear Voldemort is gone." Tom said enjoying the look on Dumbledore's face.

"How? What have you done?" Dumbledore asked wand now pointing at Riddle.

"I have been given a second chance. Din, Nayru, and Farore have done this to me, I have a chance to redeem myself. Now will you help Harry and I or not?"

"Harry, I thought you said he died?" Dumbledore turned to Harry.

"That's what I thought too, however as you can see, I was off a bit. I awoke in my room and a few minutes later he just appeared in the house. I know he used to be Voldemort, but for some reason, I-I trust him." Harry said finally.

"Wait you mentioned something about the three goddesses?" Dumbledore asked suddenly.

"Wait, I never said they were goddesses. How do you know?" Tom asked.

"Din, Nayru, and Farore, goddesses of power, love/wisdom, and courage. They created this earth and all the beauty of it, the created feelings, and emotions as well. They had help though by two other gods, one who created the races, and gifted powers to the worthy, and another who created chaos, greed, corruption, and evil, the God of Betrayal. The goddesses are known, the Gods are a little harder to pinpoint, but I have reason to believe one of them is the God known as the Fierce Deity. The fifth is unknown even to me. Now you're probably wondering how I know all this?"

"Yes, we are. I only had one chapter of a book, that explained the goddesses and the three pieces of the Triforce, do you know anything else?" Tom asked Dumbledore with a glare.

"Ah, yes. The lost book 'History of Hyrule', I remember reading bits and pieces of it, a time long ago. If I am correct it should be in vault 712 at Gringotts. Or that was where it was last seen a little over a hundred years ago. It disappeared from the vault about 96 years ago, and hasn't been seen since. I however have reason to believe that it was stolen and then sold off to someone else." He chuckled as Harry and Tom both looked at him.

"Do you know who has it?" Harry asked.

"Do I know who has it? I should know, for that person is none other than myself." Dumbledore chuckled again at the faces of disbelief of the two teens in front of him.

"Y-you?" Tom sputtered angrily.

"Indeed. It was lost, lost for a very long time, a very long time. A friend of Merlin was given the book for safe keeping, one of the most hidden secrets of all time. On his way to the safe house the friend was intercepted by a rogue thief. The two fought wand to wand, but once the thief's wand was snapped, the thief resorted to sword work, he got a lucky shot and from what records say, killed Merlin's friend. He then buried the body, and took of with the goods. The book was lost somewhere in the struggle, for the thief had not gotten the book. The thief's name was unknown, however by deducing and contemplating we are almost positive the thief's last name was Pettis, which as of now there are no known peoples with that last name. However, I do believe that the last name Pettis changed into what is a popular family name of Pettigrew."

"Pettigrew?" Both Harry and Tom yelled out.

"Yes. The book had been lost, but when we found the body of young Doric Eider, who was Merlin's friend, we discovered the location to the safe house. Upon finding the safe house, the Goblins were surprised to find a book, I was with them when they found it and told them to keep it in a secure vault and I would send someone for it later. And I did, I disguised him as a thief and he collected the book for me, and then came back and handed it for me for safekeeping."

"Who was it you hired?" Harry asked with a feeling in the back of his mind.

"Why it was none other than your very own ancestor. Jade Potter, the daughter of your great-grandfather, sister to your dads dad. I've only read a very small bit about the book, because I mainly needed it to keep it safe. At that time, someone was looking for the book, an ancestor to the thief Pettis."

"Pettigrew again? Why did he never tell me about this?" Tom snarled.

"I would not know, perhaps he had a hidden agenda of his own. I don't know why, but when he was at school he was fearful, always clinging off the most powerful and popular. However whenever someone would really get him mad, Peter seemed to be able to fend for himself, he was strong, much stronger than anyone actually gave him credit for." Dumbledore said sadly.

"Well, we don't have to worry about him anymore." Tom said.

"What, why? What do you mean?" Dumbledore questioned them."

"Wormtail, my most faithful follower abandoned myself and the rest of the death eaters as soon as seeing the 'king of evil'. He however must not have realized we were extremely far underneath the ocean. He either drowned or was killed by the guardian."

"Guardian?"

"Yeah, a huge ninety foot or so shark, it had claws too and was totally resistant to spells." The book might say something about it, I almost got maimed by that creature."

"Oh, right the book. Dumbledore you going to show us where it is?" Harry asked.

"Yes, it's this way." Dumbledore walked over to the bookshelf Tom had been looking at, he quickly uttered a spell, and the tip of his wand lit up, he then touched a raggedy and well worn book, very small in volume, and suddenly it grew, instead of being the smallest book it was now easily the longest, with 23 chapters, not including the missing chapter. It was a huge book, and Harry didn't think that even Hermione would be able to read all of it in a week, even if she did nothing else.

"Wow! That's huge!" Harry said.

"Doesn't matter, now can I see the book?" Tom asked impatiently.

"Normally I would say no, but seeing as Fawkes isn't going crazy at you it must mean he trusts you, therefore, you can see the book. Here be careful with it, it is a powerful relic of the past."

"I will. Now let's see." Tom began flipping through pages, ending up at the fourteenth chapter. "Ah here it is."

Chapter 14: The Hero of Time

Intro:

The hero of time had long been thought of as a legend to the people of Hyrule, a time soon came however when they discovered that he was indeed real. The hero of time, Link a young boy who had grown up as a child of the Great Deku tree(pg. 1777) and was a forest child. Unlike most of the forest children, who stopped growing and stayed in the body of a twelve year old for life, Link was different, he was actually a hylian. He began his quest at the age of eleven and it all started because of a dream and one man. Link collected the three jewels, Din's Ruby, Farore's Emerald, and Nayru's Sapphire. He had to fight many deadly and dangerous creatures to get these jewels. Once collected he met with Princess Zelda. It was Zelda who had sent Link on his quest. However upon coming to the Gate's of Hyrule. The gate was broken down and Impa, caretaker and later sage of shadow took Princess Zelda into hiding, Zelda threw the Ocarina of Time into the water for Link to use later. The Ocarina of Time was used by the hero quite often and it helped him traverse from his eleven years and eighteen years, this came in handy for many of the tasks he had set out to do, dealt with something that happened in the past that needed to be changed. Chasing after them came the one who Link was destined to defeat or die trying. Ganondorf Dragmire of the Gerudo came and questioned him, before continuing his chase. Link collected the Ocarina of Time, and the three jewels and went to the temple of time. By placing the jewels on the pedestal it opened the door to the fabled master sword. Link then took the sword out and darkness enveloped him as Ganondorf's laughter rang out within the temple. Link awoke and found himself in the temple of time seven years older and that far into the future. It turns out that the land had fallen into decay and the peoples were clinging to survival. Ganondorf Dragmire had with the help of the Triforce of Power became the 'King of Evil'. Link with the help of Sheik then began freeing the sages and collecting the seven medallions. Ganondorf had become very powerful and his creatures were more powerful than they had ever been. But he did not have the whole Triforce, so his dream did not become a reality, he did create a shadow of it however, in Hyrule. After collecting the seven medallions and discovering that Sheik was really Zelda, Ganondorf arrived and kidnapped the princess. Link went to Ganondorf's castle to rescue the princess and defeat Ganondorf. A long hard and deadly battle was then fought, in the end Link did slay Ganondorf and he and Zelda raced out of the castle while it was crumbling beneath them. Out of the ashes of the ruins of the castle came Ganondorf's final and real form. Ganon a hideous creature of power, malice, and evil. Once again the hero fought and fortunately, they just won, it was extremely close, but Link managed to imprison Ganondorf into a dark part of the Sacred Realm, where he would hopefully remain forever. Link was then sent back to the beginning of his journey to recover what childhood he could, without the fate of the world on his shoulders. To find out a more detailed look at the Hero of Time and all he did turn to the next page. To read about other journeys of the Hero turn to chapter sixteen: Termina. To find out more about Link, Zelda, Ganon, and the Sages turn to chapter fifteen: Heroes and Enemies of Hyrule.

"This isn't good." Tom said.

"No, no it isn't. But, at least we can call him something besides 'King of Evil'." Harry said.

"I believe that we are safe. For the time being, the Ocarina is still lost and I doubt the book will say anything about it, now excuse me if I'm blunt, but would you happen to know where your death eaters have disappeared to?" Dumbledore asked Tom, who just stared blankly back.

'I heard what you said. I honestly, have no idea, whatsoever about the missing death eaters, you said Severus was clutching his dark mark arm when he collapsed and eventually disappeared?"

"Yes. It was the strangest thing, the other death eaters in Azkaban had the same thing happen to them." Dumbledore said pondering about what happened. "Do either of you have any idea what it could be about?"

"Don't look at me. No idea. But, it is curious at how they escaped Azkaban. Were any of them animagus?" Harry asked Tom.

"Only two. Macnair and Lucius. Neither of them would probably think of using that t escape. It does bring up valuable points however." Tom said thoughtfully.

"Indeed it does, now would you mi-" Dumbledore was caught off as one by one nine fellows appeared in his office, looking both confused and worried after finding out who was in it. Harry, Dumbledore, and Tom watched as one-by-one Lucius Malfoy, Crabbe and Goyle Sr., Macnair, Dolohov, Avery, Jugson, Knott, and last, but not least Severus Snape.

"Uh-oh." Knott said for all of the former death eaters.

"I shall do the talking. Everyone else stay quiet." Severus said to his fellow light mark bearers.

"Severus what is the meaning for this?" Dumbledore asked Severus harshly.

"That would not be my doing. You know of the others here in this room, I have something to tell you, and I doubt you'll believe it, but it's the truth. Get rid of Potter and the other boy. This is private and we don't need children to be listening in."

"Severus. I think it would be in your best interest for myself and Potter to stay." Tom said to his loyal servants.

"What? How dare you? You insolent brat, don't you know who we are?" Dolohov said angrily.

"I know perfectly well who you are, and if you actually thought to think you would be curious of why both Harry Potter and Albus Dumbledore don't have their wands pointed at your throats. I would suggest allowing ourselves to say unless anyone wants something leaked to a certain person in the Daily Prophet?" Tom said in a matter-of-factly type of way. The death eaters glanced at one another and then the two aforementioned individuals before glancing at Tom again.

"Who do you think you are? You can't just order or blackmail us. We will not take from a little boy such as yourself. Why we-" Avery ranted, before being cut off by Harry.

"I'm curious of how the nine of you got here, what you're doing here, and you may want to listen to this boy he knows the location of your master." Harry said earning a slight chuckle from Dumbledore.

"Yes, my boys, you do indeed, now let's get down to business. First off Severus what happened?"

"You may not believe me or us, for that matter, but you should listen all the same. It's hard to believe what happened myself, but it did happen. Let me start out at the beginning." Severus then began launching into a whole big elaborate story of what happened. The Fierce Deity, the Reaper, the Gifts, and the new mark. At the end he asked if their were any questions.

"I have one." Harry said suddenly.

"Very well, Potter. Let's here it." Severus said with a sneer.

Okay. So even if this whole story is real, my question is how did you end up at Hogwarts in Dumbledore's office?" Harry said smirking at Snape.

"Actually I was wondering that myself." Lucius said wonderingly.

"The Deity said that he would be sending us to the place where Voldemort was located, but how we ended up here I don't know. You don't think he could possibly on Hogwarts grounds do you?" Snape asked Dumbledore.

I'm not sure my boy, there is as far as I can tell no Voldemort here. Tell me why I should believe the rest of you? I may believe Severus, but show me I can trust you." Dumbledore said sternly to the other death eaters.

"Show you? How do we do that?" Avery snapped.

"You want to see our dark mark don't you?" Lucius said knowingly. "Very well, I'll show you, it is still there, but as you will be able to see it is quite different from what it once." Then he rolled up his left arm sleeve and the others followed suit, then Harry, Dumbledore, and Tom stared at the new mark, in wonderment, it was no longer a skull and serpent, now it was the embodiment of light, a phoenix. It must have sparked a chain reaction because Fawkes suddenly started singing and Dumbledore knew then that they had been given a second chance, but what would he do with them? At the moment they were criminals, but they servants of the light, which meant that all his doubts about this being a trick of Voldemort's was thrown right out the window.

"Now we have answered your questions, tell us who this boy is and where is our master?" Lucius said commandingly.

"I am not a boy and you would do well to remember that." Tom said angrily.

"Tell us who you are?" Lucius demanded again.

"Very well I shall answer your first question, for once that is answered the second question will become null and void."

"What are you talking about?" Jugson asked.

"Just shut up so he can tell you." Harry growled.

"My name may seem familiar to some, I was surprised as anyone, how I became this young again. The goddesses did the same to me as the Fierce Deity did with you. My name is Tom Marvolo Riddle." Tom, Dumbledore, and Harry watched in amusement as the former death eaters eyes grew wide and a few had their mouths open. He had, kept his face hidden from them by a hood, and now took it off, most of them recognized him. "Now I believe you wanted to talk some more to me, and I'm sure you all have a lot of questions?" The former death eaters nodded their heads and then Tom began his story for the second time today, with the help of Harry Potter.

(General)

Ganondorf sat on his thrown contemplating events of the previous day. His thrown was quite large, it was gold with different jewels embedded within and two Hylian skulls on the tips of the armrest, it was truly a magnificent chair. Ganondorf had been gone long, much to long, most of his past servants were dead or in hiding, and the monsters he created were quite weak at the moment, it would take time, but eventually he would be able to create an army once more, with both old and new creations. A problem would be with the wizards, although they were quite weak against him, they could defeat some of his creatures with ease. It didn't help that the one who knew of him had escaped, how he didn't know, but knew he would need to have him eliminated as soon as possible. The book was another problem, he had no idea where it was, nor the Ocarina, nor even the accursed Master Sword. He made special note to get rid of the sword before too long. Another problem was it had taken him much too long to break the seals, and even longer for someone to visit the temple of time with the three needed jewels. He had gone through a total of twelve, only twelve people who were able to work on his freedom, most occurred every thousand or so years. He was fortunate however, the wizard family Pettis had remained loyal to him, even though their name had been changed to Pettigrew. It was a shame really, that most of his followers had been defeated, even Beorn his third most loyal servant had fallen, most due to the Hero of Time, or some other hero. He was quite surprised to discover hiding in the temple, an ancestor of the Pettigrew line, he was fat, short, and bald. He was the wizard who had turned into a rat when he saw him. He was smart to do that, he had known what was to come. He came to Ganondorf after Voldemort had disappeared, and vowed his servitude for him. He was evil, just like him, he also was powerful, more powerful than Voldemort had been, not that he realized that however. It was Pettigrew who came and interrupted his planning.

"My lord." Pettigrew said without the accustomed stuttering, that most knew him for. "It seems as if the book is at the wizarding school Hogwarts."

"What book would that be Worm?" Ganondorf sneered.

"The 'History of Hyrule' you said you believe it could tell us the location of the Ocarina of Time." Pettigrew said with a confidence no one had ever seen of him before.

"Yes, I did, didn't I? It's at Hogwarts is it?" Ganondorf asked Pettigrew.

"Yes, my lord. I believe the wizard Dumbledore possesses it. I was searching for it all last year, and finally found the location, however I couldn't get to it."

"You were searching for it? Why?" Ganondorf said with curiosity.

"To find away to release you of course." Pettigrew said sounding as truthfully as he could manage

"Very well then. You can retrieve this book for me."

"B-but my lord. Albus Dumbledore is the most powerful wizard on the planet excluding yourself. He also has other teachers there, and school will be starting, it will be almost impossible to get to it." Pettigrew said with slight fear in his speech.

"Then we will get it, before school starts. I will send with you three creatures, you should not need more. Don't fail me. General." Ganondorf said dismissing him with a wave of his hand. Where Pettigrew just walked out in a daze, he had just been made General to one of the most powerful if not the most powerful man to ever walk the earth.

Ganondorf watched him go, with an amused look on his face, or at least as amused as he could get, if he succeeded in this task he would be rewarded, if not he would be punished, that was the way things went. He began concentrating and out of the ground came three identical figures. They were big and scaly. They had green skin, yellow eyes, a sword and shield, an armor headset, and had very sharp claws. They looked like humanoid lizards, in their eyes however was a malice unmet by any human, there eyes held a hidden desire, a pleasure look at the thought of human blood, their tails flicked once or twice before coming to rest on Ganondorf.

"Welcome back Gole, Cole, and Nole, I have a job for you. One that I believe will be acceptable to your tastes." The lizards looked at him their forked tongues darting out and then they grinned, toothy grin that would put fear into the hearts of the race of man. The first two were Lizalfos, the third Cole was a Dinfolo slightly larger and more powerful than his two Lizalfos companions, and they were hungry for blood, after all they had been denied the pleasure for far too long.

A/N: First battle is going to be coming up soon, and a character death, unfortunately. Next chapter will be out soon, and the Core of Evil chapter is done, I'm just waiting until Friday to put it up, Battle for middle earth and to annoy Voldemort will also be up on Friday. I hope you enjoyed this chapter and be patient more legend of Zelda characters will show their faces, you've already met at least two. Please read and review and have a good day.
