Is it love? [Regulus x Reader]

Chapter 85

Y/N woke up in the hospital wing. Regulus, and the golden trio, we're by her side. And Madam Pomfrey was at the end of the bed.

"What happened?" Y/N sat up, rubbing her head

"Tom Riddle found you passed out in the restricted section with a book on your chest. It was a book on horcruxes. Tell me, miss Grey, what were you planning to do with that book?" Pomfrey asked

"I wasn't going to do anything! Tom Riddle set me up!" Y/N yelled

Pomfrey shook her head and walked away. Y/N felt her head get warmer and she began to feel dizzy.

"I'm sorry, miss Grey, but Tom said you've been practicing dark magics and must be detained." Pomfrey said as she walked out the hospital wing

"You would never do such thing, would you?" Hermione asked

She didn't respond.

"We'll give you time to think." Regulus said

The four of them walked out the hospital wing, leaving Y/N alone.

"So foolish." Y/N recognised the voice

It was the voice she had to put up with for years: Tom Riddle.

"But, I've seen what you can do. So I'll help."

"But this is about stopping you."

"I know. Now, follow my lead."

"Why should I trust you?"

"If you don't, you'll die."

Y/N sighed as she stood up and walked out of the hospital wing, holding her wand firmly at her side.

"Get to the girls' bathrooms."

She did so. Multiple students backed away from her as if she was the devil. And teachers tried to pull her aside but she wouldn't listen. Until Y/N reached the girls' bathroom.

"If I remember correctly, this was where I was. About to make my first Horcurux. But beware of the basilisk."

Y/N closed her eyes and stepped into the bathroom. She muttered a spell and she could now see every with her eyes closed. The basilisk could do no harm if it didn't know she was looking. Inside the room, was Tom and a female student. The student ran out of the bathroom and the basilisk slithered away.

"Once you can no longer hear me, you've completed what you wanted to do."

Tom pulled out his wand and pointed it at Y/N.

"Why are you doing this, Tom?" Y/N stepped closer

"Because I can be the most powerful wizard of them all!" Tom yelled

"Can I tell you something?"

He slowly nodded.

"Dumbledore dies when he's a hundred an something. But, you, you die in your seventies. And it's all because of the Horcuruxes. If you don't make them, you could probably be a powerful wizard and live longer than Dumbledore. You might even become headmaster."

Regulus ran into the bathroom and pointed his wand at Tom.

"All you have to do," Y/N began, "is stop making the-."

"Avada Kerdavera!" Regulus yelled

"Avada Kerdavera!" Tom quickly shot at Y/N

Tom fell backwards into the floor. Y/N was thrown back and quickly felt the sweet relief of death.
