You look around and see your in a dark room, not even big enough to be called a closet. You see a small bed propped up against the wall across from you and next to you was a desk, you rub your head and wonder around the room for a moment noticing the window and a nice post card of some rocks but as you drew closer to the window you noticed a small boy sat on the bed, looking at you as if you would hurt him.
“what’s wrong little one?” You ask as you walk towards the boy, he seemed malnourished and looked as if he had been beaten recently, causing you to slowly approach him and when you were close enough you engulfed him in a hug, eager to make his sadness melt away, but the boy merely sat there stiff as a board, as if he’d not noticed.
You let go of him and finally looked at the boy, he seemed a little bit less scared, his green eyes finally showed calm.
“So little one, do you have a name?” you were fairly convinced this was toms younger self as you had gone into his journal after all but you needed confirmation.
The boy turned away from you and looked out of the window “other kids are scared of me, I am more powerful than them, more special, there nothing...” he turned back to look at you in the eye “your nothing".
You noticed you had begun to cry, you had no idea why you were crying it wasn’t something new, Tom had always brought you down that was just the type of person he was, bring others down to rise up.
You blinked away your tears and faced the boy “you know what, I think your just a scared little boy who doesn’t know what he’s doing, he’s been given all these gifts and for what? Your nothing but a scared child who doesn’t want to be weak because deep down, you know your weak and you hate that about your self, Tom ” you say almost shouting at the boy and for the first time his eyes began to water.
“you know at first I wanted to be friends and be like the others but once I could do things the others couldn’t, like talk to snakes they started bullying me, but I wasn’t going to let them bully me if I could help it" a snake appeared next to you and seemed to have a conversation with the boy “as I said, I can talk to snakes and its time for you to go" the boy spoke so viciously you were almost convinced it was someone else talking, someone so cute and innocent couldn’t possibly have thoughts like that but who were you kidding this was Tom riddle after all.
The snake bit you and you lost consciousness.
