Hadrian and Snape appeared in front of the newly resurrected Voldemort. Snape gasped, before kneeling and saying, "My Lord."
Voldemort sneered before looking at Hadrian, who was smiling. "Perfect timing. Where's Lucius?" Hadrian asked, just as another person appeared in a cloud of black smoke.
The new arrival immediately kneeled before Voldemort, but before he could say anything, Hadrian spoke up. "Hello, Lucius Malfoy. Please retrieve the diary you were given by Voldemort. We'll have need of it."
Lucius looked to Voldemort in confusion. Voldemort sighed. "Just go get it."
Lucius nodded and vanished in a cloud of black smoke. He reappeared five minutes later holding the diary. He held it out to Voldemort, but Hadrian snatched it before Voldemort could grab it. "Great. This will make the ritual easier. Now where is the ritual room?"
Both Lucius and Snape looked at Hadrian as if he was crazy even as Voldemort turned and started heading down a hallway. Hadrian followed while beckoning for Lucius and Snape to follow as well. Snape and Lucius looked at each other before catching up with Hadrian. "Potter! Just what are you thinking?!" Snape hissed when he was beside Hadrian.
Hadrian scowled. "Please stop calling me Potter. After all, I'm not a Potter but a Prince."
Snape stared at him in confusion. He opened his mouth to speak, but they arrived at the ritual room before he could say anything. Hadrian turned to Lucius and Snape and indicated for them to enter the room. They looked to their lord to see him scowling at Hadrian, which made Snape's heart skip a beat in fear. Then Voldemort sighed before motioning for Lucius and Snape to enter the room.
After getting their lord's permission, Lucius and Snape entered the ritual room. Hadrian shook his head and followed the other two inside with Voldemort bringing up the rear. Once everyone was inside, Hadrian turned to Lucius and Snape. "Do not interrupt me at any point from here on until the ritual is complete."
Although greatly confused, the two nodded. Hadrian then took some ritual chalk from a indent in the wall by the door and begun drawing the ritual circle and runes that were required, making sure to leave spaces for the Horcruxes. After he was done he motioned for Voldemort to get in the center and to lay down. Once Voldemort was in position, Hadrian placed the diary in one of the spaces in the ritual circle and stepped back until he was no longer in the ritual circle.
Hadrian then took a ritual dagger and sliced his right palm, letting his blood fall onto the ritual circle and causing the runes to glow. Out of the corner of his eye, Hadrian saw Snape take a step towards him. Shaking his head at Snape, Hadrian waited a moment before turning to the ritual circle and begun chanting. Halfway through the chant, there was a flash of light and four dark orbs appeared over the other spaces in the ritual circle.
The dark orbs then faded, revealing a golden cup with badgers on the side, a locket with a serpent on the front, a ring with a dark grey stone embedded in it, and a silver diadem. Hadrian then increased his chanting. A few moments later, a dark cloud came out of each object in the ritual circle and flew inside Voldemort. Voldemort immediately begun screaming and writhing.
Gradually, Voldemort changed. His scales vanished and became pale skin, dark hair grew on his head, and he gained a nose. Once the change was complete, Hadrian slowed his chanting before stopping a minute later. The runes stopped glowing, and Hadrian quickly healed his palm before turning to Snape. "I'm going to need a blood replenisher before I collapse."
Snape blinked before reaching into one of his many pockets and withdrew a potion. He handed it to Hadrian, who grabbed it and downed it immediately. He then turned and walked to Voldemort's unconscious form. He smiled before leaning down and brushing some of his dark hair out of his face. "It'll be good to have you back, Marvolo." Hadrian then turned to Lucius and Snape and said, "Please place both of us in the same room. When we awaken, we'll need to go to Gringotts. Lucius, you can leave after we're placed in a bed, if you want. Snape, you will need to stay to look after us. You will also be needing to go to Gringotts with us. I'll explain everything then. In the meantime, good night," before collapsing, unconscious.
