Unknown POV - In The Chamber
After being separated, Harry and Riddle make their way to the entrance of the chamber and Harry opens it.

Upon seeing Ginny, Harry runs over to her and T. M. Riddle approaches. Riddle however seemed to enter the room with more caution and gave the other Riddle a slight glare as she as well, checks on Ginny.

Somehow T. M. Riddle gets his hands on Harry's wand.

"We have to get her out here and save her." Harry says, not really realising the situation he was now in.

"That won't do much, instead I say we get rid of the source of her problem." Riddle says and glares at Tom.

This is when Tom reveals that he is Tom, he is Voldemort and the one who opened the chamber 50 years ago.

"Great speech, mind moving on to act 2." Riddle states getting impatient.

Tom abides and calls out the basilisk to attack Harry. Though Fawks comes flying in, Fawks did not get to scratch out the eyes of the basilisk as it seemed to just scream in pain and become blind without an obvious cause, to most in the room.

Then the chase scene begins. "You can't control it, it will only listen to an heir." Tom says as the basilisk chases Harry.

Riddle says something and the basilisk stops for a moment. Before Tom gives another command and it continues, leading Harry to leave the two in the area with Ginny alone.

"Look at that, you are so much like your mother." Tom comments.

"Good to know you remember her, considering what you did." Riddle states coldly.

"So, you're on Dumbledore's side like her?" He questions.

"Like? She was never on his side, he simply just had control on the side she believed in." She says before continuing, "Me on the other hand, Uncle Tom. I am grey, I am going to bring the downfall of you both. Or perhaps, just sit back and watch it happen. It all depends on my willingness to get my hands dirty."

Riddle was with Ginny, sitting unmoved and unaffected by Tom's presences. "Maybe, I should have.." Tom started before trailing off as Harry had returned to the room.

Soon causing Harry to slay the basilisk, before destroying the diary of T. M. Riddle. Which brought a small ghost smile to form on Riddle's face before quickly disappearing.

Ginny quickly wakes up, Harry gets saved by Fawks and Riddle soon leaving returning to her place as some background/side character in the eyes of the Gryffindors, once again. At least that is her hope, as she disappeared from the scene and went back to her common room.
