In his own worst nightmare, Tom Riddle X reader

chapter four

"Remind me again why James and I had to come?" lily asked, wiping the sweat from her forehead.

y/n looked at her, "I needed the help from my friends."

"Yet you won't tell your friends why exactly this mission is so 'important'" James replied, "plus, I don't know if you know this y/n, but no one's comfortable with Mr. take over the world." he gestured to Tom.

y/n sighed and turned to Tom, "you guys will find out once we get this fixed" She grabbed ahold of the pendent around her neck, "this thing is more important than anything right now."

Jessie looked over, "hey! this looks like a nice little cabin!" she walked towards the door and was instantly knocked back.

"Jessie!" y/n yelled, running over to help her friend up. Lily dusted Jessie off and helped her stand. She looked at the cabin, "it's protected by some knock back jinx. Either they're very anti social or they're trying to keep people out."

Tom looked at her, "well if they're a wizard they're definitely not anti social, so I'd go with the second choice." he replied, taking his wand out getting ready to cast a spell to disarm the jinx.

"wait." y/n stopped him, "we don't know what'll happen if you attempt to disarm it. for all we know it could be rigged to expload."

"Well sure, I like keeping my home safe, but I surely wouldn't blow up my own home." a voice from behind them replied.

y/n turned around, coming face to face with an insanely hot wizard. (and I mean HOT)

The Asian smirked, "I'm Tartarus, I see you've found my home. young wizards."

Jessie crossed her arms, "young? you look 13."

Tartarus shrugged, "I'm thousands of years old, my dear. it's only natural I keep my good looks." he replied, waving his hand and disarming his own spell. he walked towards his front door and opened it, "tea?" he asked, letting them all enter.

~inside the cabin.~

The inside of the cabin was alot bigger than it looked like it was. The inside was covered in Japanese style decor. He went into his kitchen and brought back a tea kettle and many tea cups on a tray. He motioned to his couch, "please, have a seat."

All of them sat on the couch, "I can only assume you young wizards are here for something. As not many people come to see me just to visit."

y/n sighed, "yes we are here for something." she took the time turner from around her neck and handed it to him, "do you remember this?"

Tartarus looked at it and gave a small smirk, "of course I remember this. I made it. From the cute decorations all the way down to the small subliminal details. Where did you get this?"

y/n sighed, knowing what happened the last time she messed with the past. But she had to do this, for her sake. She worked up enough courage to lean forward and begin talking.

"I used that same necklace to travel to the past once before. I'm from the year 1991. What happened before doesn't really matter, until leading up to this moment." she sighed, "I was cleaning something out and touched it, forgetting it was even in there. I hoped it was just a one time use deal. But when I touched it, it sent me back here, for the second time."

Tartarus nodded, "you have quite of a backstory, y/n."

She nodded before remembering she hadn't even told him her name.

"How do you know my name?" she tilted her head.

"my dear, time travel is a constant loop. whatever you do, has been done by future you, and is going to be done by past you, Ive been alive for hundreds and thousands of years. I have lived through this moment many times." he replied, "though each time, your back story is different."

y/n rose an eyebrow, "that seems like alot of work."

Tartarus nodded, "trust me, dealing with you once a day is. but it's worth it." he sat back, "now let me fix this. it's going to take a while though, feel free to make yourselves at home, and comfortable." he stood up and walked out.

"something about that guy gives me weird vibes." Tom said.

y/n looked at him with no emotion in her face.

"he's our only choice."
