Evil in Riddles {Tom Riddle} (Wattys 2018)

3|| "Simple...I'll kill you. Not now, but I will"*

Serena was walking down the halls, peacefully. Then, someone walked her way. It was Cassiopeia Malfoy, the most 'popular' girl in school.

"Gaunt" Cassiopeia sneered.

"Malfoy"

"Stay away from Tom"

"And why is that?"

"Why is that? Ha! He is mine, so Stay. Away."

"Oh, he's yours. But I'm not going to stay away from him"

"You dare disobey me?"

"Actually yes, I do"

"Just because you're a Gaunt doesn't mean you own the school. This is my school, and you're nothing but a attention-seeker, a bitch"

"Speak for yourself! You're a slut, a whore, and more. Also, you are weak. We've already seen it since Second Year"

"You think you're better than me?"

"That's right, bitch" Out of anger, Cassiopeia pulled out her wand, and pointed it at her.

"You think you're better than me? Let's see about that" Serena also pulled out her wand.

"Try me"

"Incendio!"

"Aguamenti!"

"Levicorpus!"

"Protego!"

"Ha! All you do is shield yourself. This shows you really are weak!" Cassiopeia laughed. Serena gritted her teeth and pointed her wand at her.

'Crucio!' Cassiopeia fell down in pain. Serena stared at her blankly, as she casted it again and again, until Cassiopeia fainted. She stared at her, until she smirked then left.

Oh, she would gladly see the day she will curse Tom Riddle to death.

"Malfoy"

"Y-Yes, my Lord?"

"You shall spy on Serena Gaunt. If you don't, you'll know what'll happen to your family, you understand?"

"Y-Yes, my Lord"

---

"Weasley"

"Yes, my Lady?"

"You shall spy on Tom Riddle. You will give me information of all you know about him. You mustn't get caught, you understand?"

"Of course, my Lady"

As Glamora is walking down the hallway, she bumped into Tom Riddle.

His books fell from his hand, and he glared at her before getting them. She tried to help but he silenced her with a glare.

Even though he didn't need her help, she secretly kneeled down and took one of the books. She stood up abruptly.

"Watch where you're going, Blood Traitor"

"Oh really? I'm so scared" Glamora said with sarcasm dripping on her voice. He only glared at her then left.

She ran back to the Room of Requirement her Mistress found. As she came in, her Mistress is already there, seated in a black throne.

"Yes, Weasley?" She asked sternly. She went to her and bowed down before speaking.

"My Lady, I found this on one of Tom Riddle's books" she said handing it down. Her Mistress stared at it for a while before smirking.

"Very good, Weasley. You may leave" she said. Glamora bowed down before leaving. Serena smirked at the diary before opening it.

Oh, she will have fun with this one.

As Tom came back to the Slytherin Common Room and sat. It was already midnight so nobody was there. He went for his diary but it was nowhere to be found.

He searched and searched (Almost destroying the Common Room) yet it was still missing.

Serena came back to the Common Room, and let out a fake gasp. The Common Room is a mess.

She saw Tom there, still searching. He turned to face her. And in split seconds, she was pushed against the wall, his wand pointed at her throat.

"A bit of a mess, aren't we, Riddle?" She said then smirked. He pulled out his wand and pointed it at her bag.

"Accio diary" Nothing happened, while Serena smirked.

He suddenly glared at her. She is already twirling his wand between her fingers, and he is really mad.

It was already decided.

He will try to kill her.

And yet, he knew he can't do that.

For she is too powerful to be simply killed.

Maybe even more powerful than himself.

"Debating whether to kill me, eh?" Serena suddenly asked.

"What did you do?" She smirked.

"Simple...

I'll kill you. Not now, but I will"

She suddenly disappeared. The Common Room became dark, leaving him standing there, staring where she was before disappearing.

He will solve the mystery. He thought that he was the only riddle in this school.

It just turns out that there was another. His enemy.
