Missy liked to read books about Greek mythology. She liked to read about the Gods and Goddesses. She liked to read about how all of man worshipped them. She liked to read about all their messed up stories, because it was different from what she grew up with. 

In the orphanage, God was superior. He was above all, He was never wrong. He loved man and gave man free will yet he gave all these restrictions and rules. The Gods and Goddesses had many stories, some with affairs and mistakes. They were real. They were Gods, but in a way, more human than 'God' could ever be. 

The Hogwarts library smelled of pine and the fresh pages of books. Ghosts floated throughout the bookshelves, some students studying at their desks. Missy was reading a Mythalogical book with a broken spine, twirling a strand of white hair with her finger. 

Tom liked to read books about power. He liked to read books about the history of Magic, dark and ancient. He liked to read about how other wizards and witches became famous, all-knowing and powerful. He would soon be more powerful than all of them, Tom knew. He was so close, to getting what he wanted. Unfortunately, Gods and Powers are on the same aisle in the library. As Gods always abused power, but always used it to control man. Tom walked through the aisle only to find Missy with her head dipped down, reading a book at a table. 

All of Tom's plans and thoughts were forgotten as he walked over to Missy. He wasn't able to get her off his mind since yesterday, he didn't like that. He needed to get her out. 

He walked over to her, slamming down in the chair across from her. Her head snapped out, and for a second she looked worried, with her wide, innocent eyes. As she realized it was Tom, her frown morphed into a smile, her face beaming under the morning sun. She reminded him of the goddess Aphrodite, beautiful and evil. She would always get jealous easily, she would always want revenge, she would never let anyone speak as though she was below them. 

The second her eyes clashed with his, Tom dove into her mind.
