So keep on checking for updates! Thanks everyone!

"You're an animal." Marcy said rubbing her jaw. "I can't believe you would ever cogently lay a hand on me. not after you hit me in the dorms. I thought you actually cared. But I was deceived. You're nothing but an animal, and I despise you for that Tom. I have figured you out, and I know exactly what you did" She said as she grabbed Violet and walked away from him.

2 days later

Tom sat on an armchair, reading a book about hexes, as Avery strutted into the room. Tom glanced up at him.

"My lord. May I have a word?"

"Go on Avery."

"My lord, I am aware it is none of my business, but I feel you have been rather distracted lately, by Marcy Nott. Does she know about your plans?"

"Of course not! Not yet anyway… why do you want to know Avery?" Tom spat at him.

"Well, my lord, she is very keen on muggles and-"

"Avery I suggest you forget about the matter. Is there anything else?"

"No my lord." Avery then sat opposite of Tom. "Where is she?"

Tom sighed and folded back a page in his book. "She is in her dorm, with her friends. we are not speaking at the moment. I'm sure she'll be talking to me in a day or two, I am giving her a break."

"Why won't she speak to you, My Lord?"

"She knows that it was me… well that is her theory anyway. She is correct of course, but she is still investigating. I have to eliminate the parasite that is feeding her this information."

"Who My Lord? I can get rid of her."

"Violet. She overheard us talking one night, and she has been stalking me for weeks. She even went to the library to find out more information. I should have killed her first, my mistake."

"Will you kill her next?" Avery questioned.

"No Avery, the monster is back in the Chamber and they already have a killer." He said impatiently. Avery nodded and walked to his dorm. Hours later Tom was again interrupted.

"You incredulous, bastard!"

"Marcy, talking to me again, are we?" he said as smiled up at her.

"Stop it Tom. What did you do to her?" Tom stood up and began to walk towards Marcy backing her into a wall.

"I suggest you don't use that tone with me." he warned.

"I will talk to you however I feel! What did you do to Violet? Did you poison her?" she screamed as she pushed on his chest, forcing him to back away.

"Why do you even care about her!" Tom bellowed, pinning her shoulders against the wall "It's me Marcy. You want me, not her."

"I thought it was you that I wanted. I thought you were perfect but I was wrong. I actually couldn't have been more mistaken. You don't have a heart, you don't know what love is. I give up on you. I cannot help you, when I thought I could. Please just cure Violet, and leave me be." A smirk spread across Toms face as he grabbed both of her wrists and pulled her up toward his face.

"I will cure her, on one condition." He hesitated "You kiss me, right here and right at this moment."

Marcy frantically pulled away from him "No. I can't kiss you. not after I know all the things you have done, there must be something else…"

"Oh there is. Two actually. You could sleep with me tonight, or you have to kiss Brutus, and I have to see you do it." The right corner of his mouth curled up into an evil smile. Marcy gaped at him

"You're joking. Please Tom, don't make me do that! You know what he did to me!" she said as tears welled up in her eyes.

"Then kiss me. we both know you want to, and it's just a matter of time before you do." He said convincingly

"One kiss… and you swear you'll help her?"

"You have my word, My sweet." Marcy then stood on her toes and her lips met his. She hated to admit it, but she was missing this for the days she hadn't spoken to him. Tom wrapped his arms around her waist and brought her even closer to him. Marcy then pulled away and looked at him.

"Happy? Will you help her now?"

"No."

"What? You said you would Tom!" she said covering her mouth with her hand. He laughed.

"Over time the poison will wear off. As far as her sanity will go… she could be crazy for a while but I can't change that."

"I hate you." she choked out. His eyes darted to hers. "I really do. I hate everything about you. and you hate everything about me."

"Silence yourself Marcy."

"I hate you! I hate what you've done to me! Whenever I am around someone I am so mean to them! I have changed drastically because of you! It's your fault! You drove me mental!" she screamed at him.

"I didn't do that, you did. Stop acting so childish!"

"Let me go Tom! I don't love you anymore! I hate you! I hate you! I hate you!" she screamed at him. he raised his hand and smacked her right cheek, which caused her to fall against the stone wall. She gasped, and he was even taken back by the force he hit her with. Her eyes pooled with tears as she cradled her cheek. She squeezed her eyes shut and sniffled, choking back the sobs. She slid down and slowly curled up into a ball.

"Marcy… I didn't mean to." Tom said unsure of what to do. She stood up and looked at him without blinking once.

"Don't talk to me. don't look at me. forget me, I am not who you think I am, and I am not going to allow someone to push me around again. I will not go through this pain again." She began to walk away when he called after her.

"Marcy, no matter what you do, or who you meet, you will always be haunted by me. you won't be able to erase me. don't ever forget that."

Violet was soon back on her feet and out of bed, but still scarred by what she learned and witnessed. Marcy didn't talk to Tom for the rest of the school year. She avoided him at all costs, and studied for her O.W.L's in her dorm. But the nightmares got worse. They became so realistic and she soon began to hallucinate. She would see him everywhere she went, there was no escaping the grip he had on her. she tried countless times to take the enchanted necklace off but failed. It simply wouldn't break no matter what she tried. His voice would ring through her head at every hour of the day. She soon no longer spoke to anyone, she kept to herself and lost interest in everything. Marcy caught herself talking amongst herself and would quickly tell herself aloud to be quiet. Her heart was gone. Lost to Tom Riddle. But Tom was not done with Marcy. He had just begun his plans with her.
