The boy who lived; the ruins of family

the begining

Voldemort held the crying baby as he walked quickly through the manor.

"Wormtail!" He called out into the deep shadows.

A man appeared next to him skittishly approaching, head down. "Yes, my lord?"

The baby was thrust into wormtails mishapen hands. Wormtail pulled it onto his hip.

"Do something with it."

"Kill it, my lord?"

Voldemort ripped the baby from him. The child's continuous wails like a knife digging into his skull.

"No, you unsufferable idiot! If I wanted it dead, I would have killed it." He yelled in the cowering man's face."Do you think I'm uncappable of killing? Must I use you as my example?"

Wormtail looked down. "No, my lord,"

Voldemort scoffed loudly, continuing to walk down the many black halls. "Cruico"

He chucked as he heard a loud Thud behind him and the pitiful whimpers of wormtail.

Looking down at the crying child, he whispered, "What a sorry sorry man. I should hope you grow up to be better. That is if I don't kill you" he laughed at his joke.

The little boy looked up at him, his eyes puffy and red.

"See? That's it. Now stop crying. It's very annoying."

Apon entering his office, he realized he didn't have a place to put the baby. Certain he didn't want to hold it any longer, this would be an issue.

Quickly a though came to him. Voldemort moved the baby onto his hip and pressed his wand into his mark. "Severus"
He muttered. Serverus would know what to do with the child.

There was a sudden feeling of another presence. "You called, my lord," his tired eyes widened a little at the baby.

"I do not know what to do with this child."

Severus knodded "is that-"

"Indeed,"

Severus inhaled. "My lord. The malfoy's have a new baby. Shall I imploy narrsissa to watch over this one?" he pointed to the baby "for a while, until you find something to do with it."

Voldemort knodded "yes severus. I think so."

The child was passed.

"Will that be all , my lord?"

"Yes."

(To get a better experience, put on creepy background noise. I used thirteen by c418. Yes, it's a minecraft song, but it works very well here)

A few hours earlier...

Voldemort stood at number 4 Grimald place. The soon to be final resting place of the potters.

A light in the upstairs window told him that his spies were indeed correct in saying they were here. Wormtail would be rewarded for his discovery.

As he walked up the steps of the cute little house, he was careful to be silent. A single noise might alert someone, and he couldn't have that. however, that didn't mean he couldn't toy with them before he killed. What fun is just killing if you can't play with your prey?

He would use, as the muggles called it 'ding dong ditch'.

He rang the doorbell and quickly walked into the shadows, his black cloak hiding him.
