"Harry Potter," Voldemort says while looking at the child's scar.

"Luciusss, what is the meaning of thisss. I thought Harry Potter wasss dead." Voldemort said, never taking his eyes off the beautiful boy.

"My Lord, he was dumped at his muggle relative's house. Dumbledore didn't even knock on the door, just left him on their doorstep like a piece of garbage. The boy would have been out there all night. I decided to take the boy in and raise him to be a servant to you." Lucius said smugly as he watched his Lord eye the boy up and down.

"A servant you say? Tell me Luciusss, what have you taught him?" Voldemort practically purred.

"My Lord, I have decided to teach Harry the fundamentals of becoming a sexual being." Lucius started as Voldemort glanced at him sharply. "He is still a virgin, as I had a feeling you would want him to be pure." Lucius sighed in relief as Voldemort nodded and put his eyes back on the boy. "I have taught him to give oral pleasure, which I might add he is fairly good at, and he knows how to use his hands. I have also given him plenty of books to read and look at so he knows what will be expected of him in the bedroom."

"Is that all?" Voldemort asks finally taking his eyes off the entrancing sight before him.

"Actually, no. Besides those books, Harry happens to have a photographic memory and easily remembers whatever he has learned. I have provided him with hundreds of books to read on dark magic, defence, transfiguration, potions, history, herbology, ancient runes, arithmancy, magical creature species, and ancient rituals. Ask what is on any page of any book he read and he can remember it word for word. I did not give the boy a wand so he wouldn't get any ideas, though I do think he might have potential with wandless magic considering how much accidental magic he has had in the past." Lucius said nervously. He looked at his lord to see him blink in astonishment rather than getting angry at the news.

"Anything elssse?" Voldemort asked thinking that there couldn't possibly be any more. He was wrong.

"Well, just one more thing, the boy is.." Lucius began but was interrupted by rapid hissing.

*What is going on? Where am I?* Harry's pet snake Apollo said after waking up.

*We're in some graveyard, meeting Master.* Hissed Harry quietly. Harry looked up at the sound of footsteps. His snake-like master was standing in front of him. When he first saw his master, all he could think was, He looks nothing like Mister Malfoy had described. His master is not beautiful by any means and looks rather scary. It almost seems like he has darkness radiating off of him, a darkness that can make anything want to run the other way, but there is something else too. Within the darkness, there is an overwhelming sense of power. Where the darkness scares people off, the power within it seems to want to draw you in until it consumes you. It is not that hard to imagine why so many people are serving him regardless of his scary visage. His master's power is extremely hard to ignore, and Harry doesn't want to. His master may not be beautiful, but Harry definitely wants him.

*You're a parseltongue?* Voldemort hisses surprised.

*Yes, Master.* Harry says back innocently.

*And who is your friend?* Voldemort asked looking at Apollo.

*That's Apollo, he's an emerald tree boa.* Harry said happily as he strokes Apollo's head. Voldemort looks at the stroking hand, imagining it as a different 'snake' he was stroking.

"You're just full of surprises, aren't you? Tell me Luciusss, are there any more I should be expecting?" He asks sarcastically.

"No, my Lord, that is all," Lucius said, backing up with the rest of the Death Eaters.

"Alright, my servantsss, it is time to be going, but firssst let uss leave a message to that senile old man, Dumbledore. Goyle, untie Diggory's body and bring it over to me." Voldemort snapped. Goyle Senior was quick to do as ordered and brought the handsome Hufflepuff boy's body over to his lord. Voldemort muttered an incantation under his breath as he pointed his wand at Cedric's body. He then took the cup and had the body PortKeyed back to Hogwarts.

"Alright, men, you are dismissed," Voldemort said with a wave of his hand. As everyone apparates away he looks back to Harry and Lucius. "Luciusss, you shall be rewarded. Think of something you want and I may grant you your wish. And before you go, find out why Severus never showed. Tell me why at the next meeting. You're dismissed." Voldemort said. He looked back into Harry's gorgeous green eyes and grabbed the boy's nude form and brought him into a searing kiss. A forked serpentine tongue was slipped into Harry's mouth as Voldemort apparated them away.

(Hogwarts)

The crowd was looking around, wondering what was taking Cedric so long to appear. Viktor Krum had come out of the maze empty-handed nearly two hours before. All of a sudden someone appears before them holding the cup. Everyone starts screaming for joy, laughing, and singing. Hogwarts had won the Triwizard Tournament. At first, no one seemed to notice that Cedric hadn't moved at all, not once, at least not until they heard Cho Chang's high-pitched shriek.

At once all the music stopped playing and Amos Diggory began shouting, "That's my son!" Silence filled the stadium as Cornelius Fudge and Albus Dumbledore walked over to Cedric's lifeless form. Amos, the poor man, was hysterically crying while hugging his son's body to his chest. That was until he noticed the blood leaking from under the boy's shirt. He put his son down and removed the shirt. Those close enough gasped in horror at the sight. Cedric's chest had long gashes all across it. All of the gashes formed words in spidery handwriting.

Dumbledore,

The game we started nearly 2 decades ago is no longer on hold. I now hold an important piece. Let's see who wins this round.

Yours truly,
Lord Voldemort

Albus stares at the words in shock and slowly backs away.

"So it has begun."
