The light to his dark world: Hogwarts is our home

Tom Riddle's diary

Inside the bathroom with M.M. the bathroom was flooded and she was very upset. Myrtle is everything ok? What's the matter? She told them that someone threw a book at her head but didn't see who. But how can it hurt if it goes through you? Ron asked her. So what, just because I'm a ghost means people should throw things at me? No, no. That's not ok.

So whose journal is it? It says Tom Riddle on it. Sometime after Hermione and I are out of the hospital wing, or at least myself that Harry and I return to our room and open the diary. Hello, this is Farrah and Harry Potter. Hello Potter siblings my name is Tom Riddle.

Hello Tom Riddle do you know what happened in the chamber of secrets? I do. Can you tell us? No. But I can show you, but I'll have to take you back 50 years ago June 13th.... In the old Hogwarts in turns out that Tom had a lot in common with Harry and I. If the school closes because of the chamber of secrets we could get sent home but we don't have a home to go back to.

But then we received a very worrying scene from the journal about Hagrid and we couldn't believe our eyes or our ears. This scared us. That something had or is going to happen to Hagrid. And we stopped reading it after that or rather the book stopped showing us. But in the morning when everyone was back to "normal" and out of the hospital we were telling our friends about what the book had showed us what it had "told" us.

You know how far fetched that sounds right Harry? I mean Hagrid's our friend. What you're implying about Hagrid is just.... The fact that the book would say or imply about that to us about Hagrid just doesn't seem right. Hagrid would never do something like that and he shouldn't had ever opened the chamber of secrets.

And what a convo that would be if we were to turn into him. What would we even say? Something that we don't have proof of or shouldn't have proof of. You know how much trouble we could get in for having that thing or even reading through it?! Then we did run into Hagrid he asked us if we were talking about him, we all told him no.

But when we returned back to the house Neville said he had no idea who had done it but still wanted Harry or I to come clean and say that we did it. This had all happened 50 years ago and now it would seem that it is happening again and everyone expects its one of us. But we were all at least convinced it had to be someone in our house since only our group of students would know the password to get in and that included us even if we had an add on extra part of it for Harry and I and Ron.

But now we're also assuming it could be a student but it could've been staff also. But then again we knew nothing about this Tom Riddle guy. Who is this Tom Riddle? And will they have to close Hogwarts until the matter is solved? We couldn't let that happen. We can't go back. THIS is our home, we have nowhere else to go. G-D forbid we return back to our aunt and uncle. Who didn't want us there in the first place or at Hogwarts.

This couldn't be the end, we couldn't go back now, our adventures have nearly just begun. It would be a shame and pity if they all ended during our second year. Besides fighting V - and trolls and Whomping Willows and whatever third thing was still better than going back to that horrible place that neither of us dared to call "home" when this is where we all belong right here in the wizard world.

And it wouldn't matter what was in the diary or not anymore anyways because when we retuned to where we'd left it, it was gone! This was not good!
