Today was the day they would be going back to their homes for the summer vacations. And Grace was finally ready to confront 'Professor Riddle' that she knew he was 'Lord Voldemort'. And that he hadn't actually tried to kill her. Those were only lies created by Albus Dumbledore so that people would 'hero worship' him and so that he could gain power among these people.

She wasn't going to tell him that she was raised by the founders and lady Hecate herself. Yet. Because, technically, even though she didn't have a reason to not trust him, she also didn't have one to trust him.She'd wait for a while before revealing the truth to him and her friends. Who knows how they might react when they find out about that. What if they thought she was too powerful and needed to be stopped.

Right now, she was walking through the halls of Hogwarts, which were oddly silent because of the fact that students were in their lounge and dorms. Anxious to pack all their belongings and return home.

She took a deep breath and stopped in front of Professor Riddle's private chambers, which were right next to the Slytherin dorms. She looked up at Salazar and smiled. He smiled back at her, and quietly told her, "Καλή τύχη αστέρι." Before leaving the portrait to inform Professor Riddle that he had a visitor. (a job that he very much hated).

(Translation: "Good luck, little star.")

A few minutes later, a rather tired-looking Professor Riddle opened the door. He looked at Grace and raised a perfectly shaped eyebrow,

"...is there something you need, Miss Potter."

Grace cleared her throat and said, "I have a few questions about our summer homework, sir."

She really hoped the lie was believed.

"Sure, Miss Potter." He didn't look like he bought her excuse but invited her in nonetheless. "Come inside and ask me whatever questions you have."

She walked inside, her head high. When he finally sat down on his chair, she Wandlessly put protection charms on herself. One could never be too careful. At the same time, she locked the door, and Salazar appeared in his portrait.

Tom feeling the sudden change in the air, furrowed his eyebrows. He watched as Grace walked towards his desk. She put both hands on his desk and blurted out the words that would haunt him for the rest of summer.

"I know you're the dark lord. And I know that the prophecy isn't true. And I know that my parents were your followers."And with that, she winked at Salazar and Apparated, wait! APPARATED!? Tom's eyes widened as he slowly tried to process her words and the fact that she had Apparated in Hogwarts, IN HOGWARTS! Merlin, even he couldn't do that.

He leaned into his chairs and rubbed his temples.

Well, this certainly changes things.

GUESS WHO'S BAAACKKK. I'M SORRY FOR DISSAPPEARING BUT I'M BACK NOW <333
