Chapter 8 The meeting
Amelia hadn't slept much her mind was a whirl with endless possibilities of what her meeting with Voldemort, would bring, it seemed strange to Amelia how in her mind he constantly flicked from being Tom to being Voldemort. The next morning Amelia woke at half four and showered and got ready with extra care although why she wasn't sure. Ten to six came and Amelia quietly made her way down to the fireplace having previously decided that it was far too early for breakfast. In her hand, she held an assortment of documents, Dumbledore's journal, and notes on anything and everything she thought could aid the downfall of Dumbledore.
Amelia flooed straight into Knockturn Alley as she knew the place well due to the amount of times she had come down here, especially with Snape to get Potions ingredients. Amelia found the spot where she was supposed to meet Bellatrix and lent against the wall blending into it in her black robe, which she had put the hood up on before leaving the Manor, just to be on the safe side.
Amelia saw the shape of a hooded woman coming towards her and her instincts told her it was Bellatrix. The figure removed their hood upon reaching the spot, Amelia had been right it was Bellatrix. Bellatrix put her hood back up and began to walk away and Amelia instinctively followed her. Bellatrix led her down some of the darkest areas of Knockturn Alley where Amelia had never been before. They soon reached a large bar called "The Serpent's poison", Bellatrix led her inside and looking around Amelia saw some of the most prominent Death Eaters.
"You can remove your hood now, Mistress, all here know the truth." Amelia took her hood down trusting Bellatrix after all she adored Voldermort and Amelia doubted she would go against him. Bellatrix led Amelia through to a door at the back of the room which led to a hallway with a staircase, at the bottom of the staircase Amelia saw Peter Pettigrew and smiled at him letting him know that she knew that his actions towards her parents death weren't entirely his own fault. He nodded to Bellatrix who disappeared back into the tavern.
"Follow me, mistress." It felt strange being called mistress first by Bellatrix now by Wormtail. Wormtail led her up the stairs and knocked on a door before scurrying away. Amelia turned to ask Wormtail what was going on, when the door in front of her opened. Amelia knew that if nothing else Voldermort would want her information before killing her, so she stepped into the room. The door closed behind her and she was surrounded by darkness. Amelia didn't move, not even when she felt the snake curling round her neck. Part of her wanted to run but another part of her said that Voldemort would not kill her at least not yet. It was then she felt the snake's fang pierce the skin on her neck.
She let out a startled yelp when she heard Voldemort's voice saying,
"Stand still, if you have told me the truth you have nothing to fear." Amelia was contemplating what he said when she realised, she hadn't passed out, she wasn't even dizzy. She heard Voldermort's voice again although strangely it seemed to have a hiss to it,
"Is she still standing?"
"She has a name and yes I am, now tell me what's going on." Amelia felt so unsure of herself; she needed answers as to what was going on. Suddenly candle began to flicker to life, the light momentarily blinding her, but when her eyes adjusted she saw she was in a small room with a simple double bed, a desk and chair and a green leather armchair sat on which was a human Lord Voldemort an older Tom, but not as old as his age he looked only to be in Amelia's mind was filled with questions, the snake bite all but forgotten. Tom signalled for her to sit before him on the bed.
"Perhaps I had best speak first my dear." Amelia was all too happy knowing that he was no doubt reading her mind and planning to answer all her questions.
"First the bite, that was to assure your identity as the day after I gave you that necklace I slipped you a potion containing my blood to give you the protection of the snake. The transformation you see before your eyes, has come though some ancient magic and some hard work, as I have been working to reunite myself with my horcruxes, which have made me younger and the knowledge that you are alive has helped the soul reuniting process and return most of my sanity." Amelia just nodded absorbing all the information she had been told.
"I believe it is now your time to talk." Amelia wondered where to start when she remembered the things that she had in her inside pocket.
"I think this is everything you will need. Dumbledore's journal you have to think a certain name, date or event but it's easy enough to navigate and notes on the order loyalties, although most the loyalties stuff is my own speculations as I'm not there anymore. Amelia would have continued going on with what she had brought but she thought it silly seeing as she could feel Tom in her mind. He was exploring every part of her mind and Amelia let him, he looked at all the major events dating back to the moment she was born pulling out when he saw Dumbledore use Abyssus Poena on her. He seemed to be in shock and Amelia gather from the reactions of Lucius, Severus and now Tom himself that this was a spell to dark even for the so-called "Dark Lord" to use.
Tom paced the room for a moment before turning to Amelia, but still he didn't say anything instead he took her cheeks in his hands and kissed her as though his life depended on it and in seconds Amelia was kissing back her worries evaporating, the world evaporating so that kiss and she and Tom were all that existed. When he pulled away, it took Amelia a moment to recompose herself, she opened her eyes and looked at Tom, and she didn't need to be a mind reader to know that he was thinking the same thing as her. What now?
"Perhaps if we focus on the task at hand things might make themselves clearer to use about where our futures lie." Amelia had used this method many times before, throwing herself into work and things did always seem to work out in the end. Tom nodded and looked at her questioning as to her ideas.
"The first thing we have to take care of is Dumbledore, we need to lure him away from the others somehow so he can't hide behind them, but he won't be easy to trick." Amelia looked at the notes she had brought with her amongst them there had to be something she could use against Dumbledore.
"To I've got an idea, it's a little risk but it could work." They spent the rest of the morning working on the plans with elves bring them up food and drink by noon they were certain that they had figured it out. Amelia went back to Malfoy manor to work on her part of the preparations for what would take place in three weeks time.

It was a warm summer day as a woman stood, looking at the house across the road. A car pulled into the drive of the house the woman had been watching and Amelia approached the man getting out of the drivers side.
"I need a word with Harry, let me in peacefully and I wont have to make a scene." The man looked absolutely terrified noticing the wand in the woman's hand and let ushered her into the house their was just something in her sneer that was not only familiar but showed she meant business. A woman got out of the passenger side door and asked
"Vernon who is she." Vernon quickly ushered everybody inside hoping that the neighbours wouldn't see, mumbling something about freaks and nuisances. Harry was eyeing his sister suspiciously; he still wasn't sure what to make of everything that had happened.
"Harry…"
"I knew you'd come here." Amelia spun around looking like a dear in headlights as she came face to face with Albus Dumbledore. The features of Amelia slowly began to change and so did her voice.
"Oh dear would you look at that my Polyjuice potion is wearing off. If you live maybe you should ask Snape why he brews so much of it. "Amelia slowly transformed until it was none other than Bellatrix stood staring at Dumbledore.
"No one hurts the Dark Mistress." Bellatrix's words were laced in Venom; Dumbledore however had expected this and opened the door from where he stood but the only person he saw was Draco Malfoy. Dumbledore looked for a place where more people could be hidden when the curtains began to close behind him; the only place he didn't look was the floor, where a small snake had made its way towards him.
"Professor Dumbledore, Snake." If it hadn't of been for Harry's warning then the snake would have been able to bite the flesh of Dumbledore's leg but instead it retreated a little and transformed in Tom Marvolo Riddle and from behind Draco and coming to stand beside Tom, Amelia Jane Malfoy.
"You will pay for your mistakes old man." Tom's voice was as sinister as ever and Harry looked unsure of himself not only was the monster who had tried to kill him stood before him in human form, but his sister was supporting him.
"Potter, what's on your back?" There was an element of fear in mad Eye's voice as he apparated in with most other order members and Severus.
"Dumbledore's handiwork, something even Tom, the so called "Dark Lord" wouldn't use." Mad Eye grumbled clearly unsure of what to make of the situation. Amelia's body suddenly went limp Tom caught her instinctively before looking accusingly at Dumbledore, but everyone in the room wore a baffled expression, as Amelia's breathing slowed until eventually it stopped.
