chapter 30 - farewell

Mattheo looked at Tom defeated he hadn’t expected him to use his baby brother against him, hell he didn’t think he even knew about the boy as he was never spoken about.
mattheo wondered how Roy had been, he had of cause blown up a school causing quite a few deaths and injuries when he was only eleven and gotten him self sent to Azkaban, mattheo wondered how Roy had managed to get hold of the bombardment spell and the killing curse at such a young age but then didn’t have to look too far as there mother was a psychopath and well Roy may have been saved to not have tom as his father and infact a muggle man of the name Roy Johnson, this only made Roy want to impress his mother more so he wasn’t as unworthy as mattheo.

“you wouldn’t dare" mattheo stared at Tom through rage filled eyes only to see the same fury in Tom’s as well, each of them in a standoff not wanting to blink.

“I have my ways as you said before, ‘know your enemies', but I am merciful I will offer you one last chance to join me... son" Tom said while offering his hand to mattheo, mattheo stared at it like it had just insulted his mother but saw no other option but to shake it, toms hand was extremely bony and he looked malnourished, this caused a flash of concern in mattheo’s eyes as he did hate Tom in that moment he was his father and didn’t wish him to die.
“Very well for your brothers life you are to kill y/n" mattheo stared at Tom, he thought turning him back to normal would help but it only made things worse, he seemed more powerful and eager for blood, his eyes were still brown but mattheo could see a hint of red within them, mattheo wondered how much good was in his father.

 “father I love her, you can’t expect me to kill her" Tom scowled and walked around mattheo “you think this is a choice, I gave you an order now do it" Tom spoke so viciously it made mattheo wonder if there was any point trying to get him good again “you know y/n actually found Tom nice and she was  fond of you as fond as you can be to your parents murderer anyway, at one point I was jealous she’d fall for you but I had nothing to worry about clearly I am the better version “ mattheo laughed at his own cockiness as tom scowled at him “I do not care what she thinks or anyone for that matter, she will die by your hands tonight, I have other matters to attend to" with that Tom was off, walking towards the astronomy tower with  a sinister grin.

Mattheo took a moment to collect himself and out way his options, he loved both his brother and y/n but he couldn’t bring himself to choose between the two causing mattheo to sink to the floor and cry, he had to end y/n, he had no will power to fight and he couldn’t stand up to his father after all he had his memories back and was capable of much more than mattheo knew.

Tom walked swiftly towards the astronomy tower to meet some one he so despised, “hello tom" Dumbledore spoke as he looked across the horizon not even bothering to turn round, “its a lovely evening is it not?” Dumbledore spoke as he turned to face tom, who had his wand raised and a emotionless face “its time to die old man" Tom spoke as he disarmed Dumbledore, Dumbledore seemed unfazed and continued to look at Tom with a look of sympathy, “I knew a boy, extraordinary and bright. but was led astray, I wish I could've helped him more, showed him he did belong, and death wasn’t something to fear, but feel I’ve failed in saving you tom.”

Tom stared at Dumbledore completely forgetting to mask his surprised, he was sure the professor hated him and wanted to be rid of him as soon as possible but that couldn’t be further from the truth, something in Tom’s eyes showed Dumbledore there was a slither of hope left for tom but the moment was short lived once he saw the unmistakable green light headed towards him, Dumbledore was falling from the astronomy tower as y/n from below screamed and trying to get him to wake up once he had landed “Professor you can’t leave who’s going to stop tom now?” Dumbledore was unresponsive and no longer had his golden glow instead only had a hollow darkness surrounding him, everyone came out to mourn the headmaster but y/n was too concerned about where Voldermort was.

“how could you!" Harry said to tom as he arrived next to him clearly witnessing the last part of there conversation, “it was quite easy actually” Tom said while twirling his wand unfazed about Harry pointing his wand at him, “stupefy” Harry shouted with so much force he almost lost his voice, tom didn’t even need to look at Harry, to know he was about to use that spell, it seamed he only knew two types of spells from his encounter with the boy, so he swiftly blocked it with wandless magic causing Harry to grip his wand  tighter from fear, “now boy I was going to leave you until last and make you watch as everyone you loved died but I think I’ll just kill you now” Tom wrapped Harry up in vines  that were handing around the astronomy tower and began chocking him, Harry seemed to have become frozen in shock he couldn’t even escape the vines”.

“how pathetic, your a waste of my time” Tom said while Harry became unable to move “you shouldn’t really play with your food" y/n spoke from the stair case causing tom to stare at you and Harry to slightly open his eyes “brother why must you always get into messes I have to solve" you huff and explode the vines that were trapping Harry.

“now if you weren’t so annoying you would have killed him already, maybe your going soft" you said as tom sent daggers towards you, “well I like to make my victims suffer” without so much as a word a green light headed straight towards Harry causing you to jump in the way, “truly stupid, sacrificing yourself for him, a worthless worm not even skilled enough to learn more than two spells" Tom said huffing “you were supposed to be mattheo’s kill I guess I’ll give him the weakling”.
 
You heard footsteps coming closely towards you as your eyes flutter closed.
 
“father what have you done?” mattheo screamed once he saw your lifeless body, he dropped down and cradled you in his arms trying desperately to bring you back to him “you can’t leave me, please you said you’d always be by my side” mattheo was crying now unable to look at your lifeless body he stared at the murderer - his father.

“she dove in the way of my killing curse, I wanted her to die at your hands but no matter, I’ll give you this one instead” Tom handed mattheo Harry who was once again frozen in place from the loss of his sister “she sacrificed herself for you, the least you could do was run or maybe make it worth it" Harry looked up at mattheo who was looking murderous he knew that there was no hope, y/n had gone, serious was gone and so was Dumbledore, Harry had no-one any more and he didn’t feel like fighting,  everyone he loved was dead and he wanted to be with the people he loved, so he closed his eyes and waited for the Inevitable.

Toms laugh was heard through out the castle, he had won, he had killed everyone who had tried to kill him and planned to turn him into someone he was not, he stared down at mattheo and smiled at the broken boy “there are plenty of other girls she wasn’t so special" mattheo stared at Tom and all he could see was red, he didn’t know why but living without you  wasn’t an option, so without a second thought he grabbed Tom by the waist and jumped off the astronomy tower, Tom didn’t understand why he felt so scared but he soon realised he had no more horcruxes, if he died, he was dead for good.  but it was too late, mattheo had stabbed the book, in that moment of realization they both hit the ground landing  inches away from Dumbledore, no one seemed to mourn them as they figured it was there doing and deserved the death sentence.
