Authors Note: First let me begin by saying thank you for reading. Now I am only saying this because I do it to. When a chapter doesn't involve my favourite characters I skim through it. Please don't skim this chapter it's really important I even broke it into three parts so it wouldn't seem so long. So anyway read and review!

Blood Curse Trilogy Part Two

Some things once they were lost could never be found again. Some choices once made could not be unmade. Some decisions were final. The goddess of time would never send me back to this moment to change what I had done no matter what amount of blood I offered her. I had begged but it was done, Lily's path had ended and there was no brining her back.

The scene was finished Lily looked about and I lingered watching her until she went inside. A few months after that she was dead. I watched Harry watching the house, how warped his mind had become, his face used to be so expressive but now it was blank. He felt nothing for his mother but cold curiosity.

I sighed and cast another spell. I brought him to the moment it had happened. I watched him watch Riddle kill his father. He didn't bat and eyelash. When Riddle went upstairs to the nursery Harry followed. I saw a flash of anger in his eyes but other than that his face remained neutral and so did his emotional state.

I stopped the scene and dissolved the house into what was now. I could not bare to watch Lily die again. Harry seemed unsurprised he looked around the ruins. Once he got sight of me he smiled coldly and came closer. He had become inhuman, this boy. He was regarding me as a target and assuming I was most likely the cause of his current predicament.

I listened to his mind carefully. He was assessing me wondering what I was, wondering who I was. I made may face remorseful. I heard the thought that I was his grandfather. Not very likely! We could not begin this way. His mortal mind would keep trying to make connections like that.

"Not quite, father was a nick name your mother had for me. I couldn't save her and I thought that I couldn't save you either."

I kept up the remorseful charade, listening to Harry's thoughts stubborn, stubborn Harry always defiant but definitely intelligent. He had listened to my voice and he had put the clues together, although he had missed the most vital point.

"Vampire?"

Yes he had put it together. I smiled widely allowing him a moment of visual confirmation. He did not react not even to nod he simply regarded me coldly not yet realizing that he was trapped.

"Very astute Mr. Potter."

He moved slightly comparing me to some person he knew for mortal comfort. It was and endless and stupid process you could not compare people it clouded judgment, similarities between people were mere coincidence and nothing else, you would miss vital points while looking for something familiar. He looked about the rubble, and the questions he needed to ask slowly formed in his mind.

"Is this the present? I mean where am I?"

I nodded in satisfaction he was playing along nicely now. I could lead him in the direction I wanted. I had to tread carefully now. I could not be too vague and I could not be too strait forward. I reached into his mind suppressing his urge to ask for his son more forcefully.

I didn't need him to be preoccupied with his child at the moment. He was stubborn though and I knew I wouldn't be able to suppress the urge much longer. He would ask soon enough but I needed to be finished with him first.

"This is your present the one you just left. Your spouse saw you disappear. I warn you that he didn't expect to kill you, or for you to go missing he is looking for you right now."

I listened to his thoughts holding in my laughter as he tried to process all the ramifications. He almost got it all right. Then he decided he would go and find Riddle. I panicked for a brief second; if Harry tried to leave then he would realize that he wasn't anywhere. I missed the exact wording he used but I knew he meant to leave. I threw my hand out a little desperate and Harry smirked at me.

"Did you see nothing Harry? This life was never meant for you, one way or the other you would have come to this point. I only pleaded with your mother to spare you the pain this life has caused you."

I watched and listened carefully to his mind. It was too soon despite his improvements he was still young and finally mortal. Too much had happened in too short a time and he was shocked and confused. He went back quickly to what he could understand and tried once more to go home.

"Come let me at least show you. You can go home but you will be brought back here again and the pain you feel between then and now will be unendurable."

I waited knowing he would come to the right conclusion. I could only exert so much of my will on to him before he would pick up on it. I lied to him of course he would not be brought back here again it was now or it was never. I assumed he would come with me though and then there would be no need to tell him that.

I kept my face neutral when he finally decided to come with me. He had a cockiness about himself now and for once I was happy for Riddles influence. I took his hand knowing he would follow my lead. I led him quickly, to my home. In reality we were going nowhere all of his was taking place only in his mind.

I brought him to a replica of the aetasdefluo room and he looked about curiously. There was a moment where he looked about ready to scream it was very brief perhaps only a few seconds but he seemed ready to be consumed with rage. The moment passed and the anger in his eyes melted away to be replaced with his usual blank stare. I was used to masks I wore them well.

"Welcome to my home. Make yourself comfortable."

I studied him carefully. He moved about softly like a ghost. His eyes searched the walls for doors or windows there were none and the walls themselves were forgettable. I felt his magic reach around the room searching for something. I struggled to hear what it was, but his thoughts were rapid whispers. Automated thoughts, things someone did routinely and without much effort. When I finally realized his magic was searching for wards it was too late and the fact that the wards were not there planted itself into his mind.

The fact gave him sharp focus and without his confusion, all the control I had over his mind was nearly gone all at once. I reinforced the illusions at once and pushed his body back under until he was completely unconscious once more. He looked at me sharply giving me his full focus.

He now regarded me as an enemy which went completely against my goal for our little conversation. It would make it difficult to guide him later if he saw me as en enemy so soon. The time to gain his trust was gone, and now he had more information than I had intended to give him. Worse yet he was more focused then I wanted him to be.

Trying to lie or even bend the truth now would only cause more trouble. He gazed at me unblinkingly slowly building his power to strike me. I changed tactics quickly, if anything jerked him awake right now then the world would come to an end much quicker.

"You are troubled."

I locked eyes with his and he looked away. The magic that had been slowly filling the room was recalled into his body. He had a suppressing aura, I would give Nathaniel one point, the boy did possess more power than I gave him credit for.

"I suppose I am, you're very confident to have brought me here. In face you practically begged me to come."

I nodded once so as not to appear condescending.

"Indeed."

I took a seat, so we would be on the same level. Now that he was angry such rudeness as remaining standing while he sat would not go unnoticed. I willed a tray of refreshments to appear with a new plan slowly forming in the back of my mind. Harry's reaction to the tray was the most expression I had seen from him so far.

I would slowly leave him clues and when he became defiant I would reveal the existence of magical vampires to him and back him into a corner. All hopes of guiding him like some benign fairy godmother were gone. The game had just become harder but I would win in the end.

"Have you realized your limitations?"

I reached toward the tray feeling my control on Harry slip to the last thread. I acted quickly. Harry was still on the bed his eyes were fluttering open I quickly wove my magic around him to put him in suspended animation rather than under. Nathaniel was back again, he was looking at me coldly. I hoisted Harry up and made my way out of my bedroom. I used another door so I would not have to walk past my worshipers and Nathaniel followed. His gaze felt hot on my back.

"What is it Nathaniel?"

I put Harry in the same position he had been in before and made sure the details of the room hadn't changed. I took my seat making sure I was in the same position as before. I ignored Harry for the moment who was staring blankly forward the perfect imitation of a doll. I turned to Nathaniel letting the full weight of my gaze settle on him.

"What is your purpose Valeel? What will all this meddling gain you?"

I regarded Nathaniel carefully. He wasn't angry he was genuinely curious and I could understand why. I cared for nothing, my focus was like that of a child, and whatever sparkled would capture my interest completely until it became boring. The only thing I did consistently was gather knowledge. I was methodical; I was obsessed with knowing all there was to know.

I left it at that though. I had enough knowledge to stop both world wars in recent human history, and countless wars before that but I did not. I never interfered and I realized finally that Nathaniel was more confused then he was angry. He watched me as much as I watched him and he knew my patterns. But since the birth of Tom Riddle my patterns and become unconformed. I began to interfere first with Lily and then with her son and now finally with Lord Voldermort himself. If I was Nathaniel I would be just as confused.

"I have nothing to gain. If I do not act now all of mankind will be destroyed."

For a moment Nathaniel looked stricken and then he laughed. He got control of himself quickly and straightened up he looked me dead in the eyes, becoming full of anger once more.

"You care nothing for mankind Valeel. As long as there are a few humans left for you to feed from, they could all starve to death for all you care."

I nodded not bothering to deny that beyond being a food source, I cared nothing for the humans.

"What is it then Valeel?"

I looked away from Nathaniel for a moment. I had seen it, the green and red snake consuming the world and then consuming each other. I had seen one of two possibilities. The one were the world was destroyed and the other, the other one being much more important to me than the first. In the second vision the one that I wanted to bring into reality. There was Nathaniel and I in a room full of light. We were together in the way I had always yearned for. I would have let the world end if not for that other possibility.

The vision had come to me over five centuries ago and since that time I had watched the world carefully monitoring each birth and death with more care than I had done in the past. The red snake was born first and the green second. I waited watching carefully for the opportune moment to strike. In the beginning each attempt had failed and with each failure I had caused something drastic to happen to either the red or the green snake.

I consulted the goddess of time again and again and each time she would lead me to the next moment. This moment right now was my last chance. There was only one way to get to that room full of light with Nathaniel. The green snake needed to be eaten by the golden phoenix and then transformed by fire. I consulted the spirits of the watcher's realm to determine the identity of the phoenix.

After that my scheming had begun in earnest. I needed to get Harry Potter and Edward Cullen on the obscure path that would have them meet. It was not in the hopes that the world would be saved but in the hopes that I would be in that room full of light with Nathaniel in my arms.

"It is not just mankind that will be destroyed Nathaniel. If things continue as they have been there will be nothing left at all."

He did not react at all except to look at Harry. I looked as well and caught site of his left index finger twitching slightly.

"Out Nathaniel, out now before he see's you."

Harry twitched again and I made sure everything was as it should be before releasing the spell keeping his body subdued.

"I will not be mocked by you; you and yours will be dealt with."

Harry had taken up the conversation were we had left off only I couldn't remember what I had said. I reached for a biscuit and casted around in my head for the last thing that had happened. I looked at the biscuit and then remembered that it had been the tray I conjured. He didn't know I had done it but he did know that spells were being casted here without his notice and he knew that there were no wards in place either.

"Spoken like a true Dark Lord. Only that isn't true is it? You aren't a Dark Lord; it has always been your purpose to be better than Voldermort. Your Tom is inconsequential. That is why I didn't want this to happen. You can leave again if you please and I won't be able to stop you rest assured. Although the time will come when you will be brought back here again only you will be more damaged then you are now."

Harry was still for a moment. He was busy once again with doing the human thing of comparing me with someone he knew for comfort. I was not at all pleased to be compared with Dumbledore. I was manipulative but compared to me Dumbledore was nothing, I could convince I cat that it was a mouse if I was so inclined.

"You keep your food here?"

Petty. Harry was being petty; he was trying to goad me with crude observations. It wasn't very well respected for a vampire to house humans like cattle but that was not what was being done here and Harry knew that. He was craftier than that, all my spell work was leaving him confused. I put the biscuit down and sat back in the couch, surveying Harry coldly. It was time to lay the ground work and have this finished with.

"There are humans here, but they aren't being kept as food they come here seeking sanctuary."

Harry made a disbelieving noise and thought rather loudly that I was lying. I reacted again to his thoughts and not his words, he assumed his 'people' were happy and that they would not come to a vampire for safety.

"Yes the elite of your people are quite content but like any ruler you and your spouse have forgotten about the common man, the peasants which make up the larger part of your kingdom, are not quite as content, they will rise up soon enough."

He became angry again but it no longer mattered. His mind was just about beyond my control. That moment had passed and any further attempts to enter his mind would not go unnoticed.

"You've made a stupid mistake."

We couldn't begin this way, now that he was lucid we were on equal footing, or at least as equal as we would ever be. The boy had a strong mind and a strong will, but my unwillingness to invade his mind had nothing to do with my own ability I could do it, but right now it would upset my plans.

"Valeel."

He looked around the room possibly for another vampire. His brow creased and he tried to take in his surroundings the forgettable nature of the room had most likely become more noticeable to him.

"What?"

I waved and arm for him to take a seat and he did, good boy, good manners had been drilled into him. Riddle was many things but he was never rude. He would kill you and then thank you politely for giving him your life.

"My name is Valeel and I haven't made a mistake it is no great effort for me to read your mind. In fact I haven't even been trying to read your mind, it's a natural thing for me to be able to do it."

Harry didn't know very much about vampires. A lack of knowledge was a dangerous thing. That was what a vampire preferred though, secrecy was nearly as vital as blood. I could not blame Harry just as I could not blame Dumbledore for the lack of knowledge about vampires it had been my doing after all. With a little more conversational corrosion I was able to explain my angle to Harry in a manner gentle enough to not make it seem like it would benefit me. It wasn't exactly my original plan but it was closer to it than I had thought I would be able to manage given Harry's agitation.

He listened but being as he was he required proof. That was something I was prepared for. I knew Harry would not believe me with out proof. He would need something visual but before I could get to that he demanded to go home again, he went as far as to threaten me. This was not the state I wanted him to leave in. It could not be helped any longer. My earlier progress would be dashed and Harry would now see me as an enemy.

I stood up and made my face look very sad. I held my arms open for Harry, a cheap trick to throw him off but it worked. It would help lessen Harry's feeling's of anger towards me if I showed some remorse now.

"Your mother did not want this for you. I tried to warn her but she would not listen to me."

That gave him pause. I did feel an actual amount of remorse when I heard his thoughts. Perhaps he was not as cold as I thought, he did regret that his mother was dead and he did question his love for Tom. He was right in the end though; there were some things in this world that could never be restored. There were parts of him that would never be restored.

"You said my mother chose this don't contradict yourself now Valeel. I'm going back to my spouse."

I smiled and lowered my arms. I risked one last impulse; it was subtle enough and appropriate enough that I was sure it would go unnoticed. I planted doubt in Harry's conciseness. It worked and I seized on the moment to lay out the final piece of the puzzle for Harry.

"Indeed it has changed Harry; while we have been sitting here in this room over fifty years have gone by. Your spouse unable to find you, but able to feel you through your unnatural link has come to the conclusion that you have deserted him. He has also begun to notice the alarming number of humans that have gone missing into the place that he cannot find which is here. Of course he has come to the correct conclusion that you are in the same place. He assumes also that you are now rallying against him which is my aim of course. So if you go back now the ten minutes it will take you to find the door will cause another eight years to go by and he will be further convinced of your treachery and even less happy to see you return."

He considered all I had told him and I listened as his thoughts become introspective. He slowly came to understand that he could not just go back to his spouse. He began to appreciate the cunning of my plan as I knew he would. In those few moments the parameters of our relationship became clearly defined. I knew how to proceed from here.

I would be open and honest with Harry, he was smart enough to understand when he had been outwitted. He was on the right path now, I could see that I would get what I was after, and they would meet. One thing had been left unsettled though and Harry's mind was slowly bringing the point into focus. It was strange that his mind was still so human even though he had obtained and immortal body. I supposed unconventional means meant unconventional results.

"As I stated it is this room that causes time to bend. I miss a lot of things when I come to this room but it made waiting for you much easier."

I knew harry would demand proof. I had prepared it for him. I hadn't expected to have to show him everything the original proof had been much different from what I was going to show him now. I had been planning on showing him his own past and all the people he had murdered and a future in which they were alive and well. Then graciously offer him the chance to start over and correct his mistakes.

I realized now that had been a foolish plan. While Harry did feel guilty it would never have been enough to cause him to abandon Riddle. I had misjudged how much love could warp a person mind; it was ironic considering my own motivation.

"Very well then Harry follow me."

Harry followed me through a trick wall. I listened to his mind his thoughts were still reaching somewhere across the line of cocky but I would break him and turn him back into the sniveling boy that was much easier to mold. I nearly laughed but held it in. He still believed that I had wizards casting my spells for me.

"You are correct Harry and now here is your proof come look here if you will."

My answer had been deliberately vague he had been thinking two things about proof and about wizards. Harry sneered believing that I was now mocking him once more. He was taxing and I would admit that I had underestimated him greatly. He was the one wanting to laugh when I held out what he believed to be a crystal ball. If the ball had actually been the fake one that I had originally planned to show him then everything would have failed right here.

"I've already told you I do not like to be mocked Valeel."

I held out the ball thanking heavens that it was the real one. It would show Harry what he needed to see.

"And I would never dream of mocking you my lord, this is a dragon's tear look into it and it will show you the proof that you desire."

He became greedy but I was not worried that he would steal the dragon's tear. He looked into it and as he looked I watched his mind to see what he was seeing. Dragon tears were difficult to find and even more difficult to use. Not many understood how they actually worked and it worked to my advantage that Harry was one of many people.

A dragon's tear rarely if ever showed you the actual future. It showed you possibilities. It showed the possible outcomes of your choices. Harry wanted to see what the end of the world looked like and that was what the Dragon tear showed him. It almost seemed like a joke but the Dragon's tear had shown Harry what he had decided to see.

I had no idea if that was the true ending. In my vision with the spirits things had been more abstract then that. The end could be what Harry was seeing or it could be something else. No one could really know such things with certainty. I needed Harry to believe that I knew it though. I needed him to believe that I was certain.

"Yes Harry that is to be the future unless you follow me now."

I was surprised with Harry's reaction. He hardly cared that the world would end. Either that or he still did not believe it. The last of my very limited control on Harry's mind slipped away and he thought of his son. My influence was snapped like a taught wire and a sharp pain shot through my head as the remnants of the spell fell away.

"Did you say fifty years have gone by! What about my son! He was just born."

That was hardly true the boy was two years old. Whatever, I chalked it up to a parent's tendency to always be dramatic and irrational when it came to their children. This was my last ploy. I would give Harry his child safe and whole and still two. It was my most important ploy actually if all else failed threatening the child would keep him line.

"Damien is well and he as been 'raised' to love and never forget you."

Harry panicked momentarily, I had been very deliberate with my words. The momentary fear that his child had grown up without him would force him to feel a deep gratitude towards me. Emotions were powerful weapons and the easiest thing to manipulate. Nathaniel led the boy into the room, Harry did not even notice him, clear proof of how blinding strong emotions could be. His eyes went at once to the small child, who looked like he had just woken up from a nap. I was not immune to the charms of young children and this child looked so wholly innocent that I felt a small amount of guilt.

"I don't understand how this is possible?"

I opened my arms again and Harry embraced me briefly too overcome with emotion not to. I pulled away and his eyes feel on the child again who appeared sleepy but in reality was very disorientated.

"My son, as the room we were in goes quickly the room your son was in goes extra slow so for you both nothing has changed but the world around you."

Harry nodded finally understanding and processing the situation for what it was. I resisted smiling triumphantly. Celebrating too soon often lead to failure.

"Papa!"

The small child was waking up, it was good that he was so young, he was easy to control and confuse. Harry picked up the child and struggled with himself. He felt bad for Tom who had somehow pulled out some human emotions and had actually developed love for his family. It was vital that Harry see Tom in a different light, his restored memories would help with the process but I wanted him to really fully understand the depths of Riddle's manipulations.

"Tom chose his fate when he decided to take over the world. How many families has he destroyed?"

Harry considered my point from a more rational view point but love was still clouding his judgment and he made excuses for Riddle's behavior. Emotions were definitely powerful, love being the strongest of all. Tom Riddle knew that like no other. He had used the emotion of love to great effect. Harry was blinded by love. He was so blinded that he was over looking that Riddle first and foremost operated like a mad man.

"He was happy, he made the world better!"

I allowed a truer expression to show on my face. If Harry was so in love with Riddle then he would appreciate my cunning.

"The world is better for those who obey."

Harry continued to argue with me, but I was finished. I had been forced to reveal more than was necessary and now I was finished. I had what I wanted and securing Harry's emotional state towards me was now out of my hands. I performed one last spell putting Harry and the child in suspended animation once more. When he awoke he would finally be where I needed him to be. The two would meet and once they met it would be out of my hands, what happened from that point was cloudy.

"You are very right Harry. You have lost things and some things once lost cannot be found again…"

Nathaniel glared at me and I smiled. Harry once you see Edward Cullen, you will lose something and so will he. You may not notice right away but things will start to unfold. Good-bye Tom Riddle and good-bye Bella Swan.

"Nathaniel bring me Nanette I have a task for her."

He hissed, he hated to be ordered around. I collapsed on to my bed exhausted. That had been an ordeal indeed. I stared at the ceiling waiting for Nanette, she would be my eyes and my ears, she was an astonishing witch, she didn't have much power magically but her mind was brilliant. Nanette made me happy, she came to me with love in her eyes.

It was actually more fascination that it was love but I took it. I soaked up her adoration as if it were blood. She bowed low as was expected and I helped her rise an honor and she knew it. She embraced me loosely offering her neck freely. I took a small drink and guided her to a chair so she would not faint.

She was a young child, and it seemed she was made for pleasure. Her small breasts were high and soft looking, her pink flesh was sweet. She induced lust in others, lust of all kinds. It was only through my protection that she had survived surrounded as she was by blood thirsty creatures. Nathaniel left the room quietly. I paid him no mind. Nanette was expectable, she was a loyal servant and when she was turned she would be honored.

"My sweet…"

She shivered and I captured her chin with my fingers forcing her to focus. She looked at me and a slow smile parted her full lips revealing white teeth.

"Are you listening?"

I waited and she nodded her eyes unclouding. She straightened herself and I released her chin caressing her face softly before taking a seat. She studied me seriously, she was all business now. She was a remarkable mortal with very strange thoughts.

"I have a simple task for you my dear. I need you to help Harry Potter. He must attend school. You need to watch his son and keep the child safe. Stay low key I will help you conceal your aura from him. Keep his child safe above all else no harm can come to the child. If you notice anything unusual then you must inform me at once. Watch the Cullens carefully especially Edward. Do you understand?"

She smiled sweetly and nodded. She stood up ready to be sent on her way. I sent her fully confident in her abilities. Nathaniel came out of the shadows, he took her seat silently. His face was blank. He stared into the fireplace instead of looking at me.

"I grow tired of your lectures Nathaniel, leave me."

His eyes slowly slid to mine and he smirked.

"I have no lectures for you my Lord. You say you want to save the world. I want to help."

I blinked nor sure I was understanding Nathaniel correctly. He smiled fully and warmly at me and I squashed down all feelings of hope furiously he was teasing me.

"I am serious Valeel, I want to help you. Even if it's only to keep you from making a horrible mistake."

I took a moment to reign in the host of emotion I was feeling. I made my face as blank as possible and nodded once. Nathaniel's posture relaxed and he melted into his chair becoming completely unguarded. I studied him thinking over my own choices in this life. There was only one outcome that I was after.

I hadn't considered failure, I longed to be in that room full of light with Nathaniel in my arms. Love was indeed a dangerous emotion, it was meant to pure but it was often love that fueled our darkest deeds.

"Shall we watch Valeel?"

I stood up and pulled out my wand, something I had only just acquired, I had no need of it, it hindered more than it helped, but I had foreseen that I would use this wand. It was white and unusual color for a wand but it was fashioned from an unusual substance as well.

I flourished it about feeling foolish. I poured my magic and my intent into the wand and it was forced into a fine point before it burst out the other end shaping what I wanted, something like a mirror formed and then floated in mid-air, it had no frame but the surface was reflective. I put the wand away and beckoned Nathaniel forth. He came to stand beside me cocking his head to one side and looking into the surface at his own face. I activated it and Nathaniel gasped taking a step back.

"What is it Nathaniel?"

I looked at he scene, Harry was looking through the wallet I had provided, all the necessary I.D was there, the small child was near by seeming a bit frightened. I turned to Nathaniel who now had his hand out stretched like he meant to pluck Harry right out of the scene.

"Nathaniel what is it?"

He dropped his hand slowly and turned away from the scene completely. I remained still, watching the scene and waiting for Nathaniel to speak.

"Can't you feel that Valeel?"

I resisted shouting, I could not feel anything. I took a seat closing the device it went blank and became reflective once more.

"He is there and he is searching for him. He loves him Valeel. Tom loves Harry he's desperate to find him, but he hasn't hurt anybody. He feels more rational he feels more human. You haven't just forced his reaming horcruxes into a human body; you have left the Tom in our time with an eighth of a soul. There is nothing grounding him now, there is nothing to keep him sane. He was working with a goal in mind and now he's mad. You have created a mad man who just so happens to be holding the world in his palm. Voldermort was not leading the world to destruction Valeel…you caused this, because of you the rest of his soul is trapped in another time. It is because of you Valeel that Tom Riddle will sink in to madness once more, and now he is at his most powerful."

My dearest Nathaniel. How brilliant of you to piece it all together so quickly. It had not been my intention to force Riddle's soul back together. The goddess had warned me something like this would happen. She had warned me that fate did not like to be controlled. Fate could not remove Harry from where I had placed him, but perhaps Tom Riddle coming along for the ride had been the intervention of fate. It was very likely things would not go exactly as planned but I was willing to take the risk. Nathaniel was most likely correct my interference had created the Voldermort that would destroy the world. He would rip through it trying to find Harry, but there was no Harry to be found in this time.

"Riddle's soul was not something I interfered with. I did not mean for him to come along. I do not like what you are implying Nathaniel. I did not attempt to deliberately cause the end of the world. Harry needs to be where he is in order to prevent it and perhaps so does Tom. Let us watch Nathaniel. Let us watch and wait… and one more thing before you run out of my chambers."

Nathaniel stopped with his hand on the door knob. He released it and turned to face me fully.

"You would be wise to not accuse me of such things again."

He nodded and fled the room. For you Nathaniel I risk the entire world. I activated the device once more and watched Harry.
