Hermione was indeed shocked, all that time the mysterious boy was Tom Riddle – she had thought he was handsome. She could not believe that this was the future Voldemort. She gulped and replied shakily, "yes urmm I am Hermione Maree Athena." He smiled at her and his eyes darkened. She straightened up and he let go of her hand. He almost whispered, "It was a pleasure I'll see you around Miss Athena."

He took the book and sauntered off. Hermione was frozen until a nearby student's cough bought her back to the present time. She decided to spend a few hours in the library before she realised it was lunch time. Heading towards the great hall she bumped into Abraxas. He linked his arm with her arm and took her to the hall. The smell of food wafted up to Hermione's nose which increased her hunger. They both sat next to each other a few whispers pointing in her direction she felt uneasy. Tom Riddle was not at lunch- weird Hermione thought. She ate a bit and headed to the dorms before everyone else.

She stepped inside the common room, it was eerily dark and she shivered although the fireplace was blazing. Something did not feel right. As she moved gradually towards the girl's dormitory she heard a noise, a loud bang outside the common room. She went back outside into the corridor to see a hideous sight before her, there was blood and Tom riddle pointing his wand at an unconscious student she did not recognise. She yelped! He looked to her direction and aimed his wand at her. Before he managed to do anything she ran for it. She realised soon she was in the room of requirements which had turned into her bedroom. Her heartbeat was hammering crazily. Thankfully she was alone and so just slept.

The next morning Hermione awoke remembering the terror of last night.d ate breakfast and headed to the library like usual. Before turning to the library corridor she heard hushed whispers which sounded very familiar. It was Tom he was threatening Malfoy. She gasped – an all too loud gasp which gained his attention. He let go of Malfoy whom immediately scuttled. She was scared, very scared! Walking towards her in a majestic way Hermione was stuck her feet weren't moving. Harshly he grabbed her hands and took her to an empty classroom. He locked the door. Before she could say anything he took his wand out and murmured, "Visiniao." Hermione yelled she could not see anything he had put a vision obscuring spell on her everything was black. She tried to scream but he managed to utter a few more words which disallowed her to talk. She was helpless now. She heard his footsteps closer towards her. She moved back only to find herself against a wall for the second time.

His fingers trailed up and across her collarbone. .his gentle, hot breath against the pulse in her neck. His soft lips grazed against her ear. She wanted to scream. He said, "Stay away from me. You hear everything don't you? Any little noise and you come running it's almost like your looking for trouble. You silly beautiful girl I don't want to hurt you; to be honest I don't want to hurt a lot of people its just they almost seem to will me to hurt them. Now will you stay away from me?"

She nodded desperately in hope. He leant in and pushed himself closer to her. Then he let go she heard something break. He came close to her again and forcefully tilted her head to the side leaving her neck bare. She felt something sharp and cold against her neck. Her mouth opened, "Ahh." She moaned, her voice had come back. She felt the blood drip. He was vile. He leant in and closed his warm mouth on the wound he sucked in the blood the flesh of his tongue made her moan louder which urged him on. He finally let go and she screamed. She yelled at him she pushed him away. She ran again from the class room and away from him.
