"Have you ever really been hated, Nefertari? Have you ever been disowned by your own bloody father before he even met you? Have you ever been cursed by the woman who called herself your mother before you could even crawl? Have you ever... asked a question, a simple question, in the middle of a crowded hallway, and had no one, not one person, answer back?" -------------------- With the war looking bleak, Hermione, Harry, Ron, Ginny, Lavender, and Draco are sent to the past. Their mission? Do anything possible to get rid of Tom Riddle---without getting thrown into Azkaban. They must change their last names, story, and houses. But what else will change for everyone, especially Hermione. What will happen when love, curses, and drama get thrown into the mix? What will happen when the Heir of Slytherin learns to love? -------------------- Cover: @melidrxmatic (thank you!) {THIS PLOT DOES NOT BELONG TO ME, ONLY THE WORDS.

Voldemort is gaining more power as each day passes, and no one can stop him, except for maybe two people. Hermione and Draco go back in time, back when Tom Riddle was still a teenage boy, and are told to befriend him in order to find out what his plans were for the future. But what happens when a feeling called love destroys the plan...

The brightest witch of her age must face the most dangerous wizard in the world...completely alone. *** Hermione Granger is sent by Dumbledore to go undercover as a Death Eater for Voldemort. Living every day afraid her true identity will be revealed, Hermione discovers Voldemort has big plans for her.

#180 in Fanfiction || #1 in Hermione || In the language of literature, there exists a seemingly-concrete, antonymous relationship between good and evil, light and dark, hero and monster. And yet, we often disregard the transition from one to another, in which the 'bad guy' becomes 'good.' Perhaps it was the cruel mistreatment of Tom Marvolo Riddle as a child, or maybe it was the bloodline of Slytherin's heir himself that made the boy into the 'monster' who cannot be named. Or, perhaps it was simply because he did not know that his heart would beat in such a frenzy, that his cheeks would redden like a crimson rose, and that his normally-calm facade would melt under the simple gaze of the time-travelling heroine. If I were to bet, I'd say it's the latter. But it matters not why Voldemort could not love, for this is not a story about Voldemort. This is the story of Tom Marvolo Riddle, and how he came into direct conflict and company with the 'brightest witch of her age' ... fifty-years ahead. This is the story of love's recognition, in which the force does not suddenly develop between two people, but a poignant emotion, different for each individual, is uniquely described to be 'love.' Maybe Tom Riddle never loved, much like that of Voldemort. However, as one chooses to stubbornly believe, love existed for Tom Marvolo Riddle as long as he chose to believe that he loved Hermione Jean Granger. ////// NO TRANSLATIONS ARE BEING ALLOWED AT THIS TIME DISCLAIMER: I do not own any of the characters detailed in this book, nor any of the quotations and plot taken from "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows."

Desperation is a state of despair, one that results in rash and extreme behaviour. It is what we resort to in the most precarious times in our lives. It is the year 1998 Hogwarts had fallen. Under Dumbledore's order, Hermione Granger returns back to 1944 to try and prevent Tom Riddle from becoming Voldemort. However she hadn't expected that the young dark lord would have such an impact on her.
