Ava | Tom Riddle ✔

O N E

☀☀☀

The moment I steped on the grounds again, the familiar warmth of home surrounded me.

I felt my heart race, to finally be in a place where I felt safe, it was refreshing, yet at the same time saddened me, because this would be my last year returning.

I made my way, along with all of the other 7th years, and we went into the the castle.

The great hall was an extraordinary sight, with the floating candles above our heads, and the four tables the students sit at and at the very front, the professors table.

As usual, I sat alone, at the very end of the Slytherin table.

The sorting soon began and not long after, I was heading to bed, and preparing for the first day of classes.

Beep Beep Beep

I heard my alarm sound. 6 am. To early for any normal human being, but I am not a normal human being, so here I am, up and about.

I waved my wand, casting a silent spell , allowing me to get dressed.

I prepared for the day, then headed down to breakfast.

As usual I was one of the first ones at breakfast, so it didnt surprise me that almost no one else was there.

I ate my food and then started walking to my class.

"Ava." I heard an old voice from behind me. I turned around and saw Professor McGonagall

"Yes Headmistress, anything wrong?" I replied.

" I was wondering, if you would like to join me in my office? I have some matters I would like to discuss." She asked

"Of course."

We made our way to her office, and the curiosity was nearly eating me alive.

"Chocolate Frogs"

We entered his office and she invited me to sit.

"Now I'm sure you are wondering why I asked you here." She said

"Actually yes." I replied

"I'm sure you know Harry Potter, correct?" She asked

"Of course" I said.

"Him, and his friends,Ronald Weasley, and Hermione Granger, are on a task at the moment. A very important one, but we needn't worry about that for the moment. I have another task for you."

"What?"

"Tom Riddle. Conceived under a love potion, unable to love. Speaks to snakes, known today as Lord Voldemort." She told me

"Sorry ma'm, but I am confused, why do I need to know this?" I asked

"The task." He replied

"What is the task, if I may ask?"

"To change, change Tom Riddle for the better. Stop all the deaths, save your parents."

"Why me?" I asked

"Why not you."

"Okay."

"You accept?" She asked

I took a moment to reply.

"Yes."
---
"I will be sending you back a week before Tom opens the Chamber of Secrets. I know you can speak to snakes as well, so you will be able to open it. Be careful. Kill the baliskik, and spare Harry from doing so. I belive in you Ava."

She placed one of the only time turners that can go back as far as we needed, around my neck.

"Remember be careful."

And next thing I know, all I can see it a blinding light.
