《HP The Birth Of Darkness》Chapter 29

I am again in the void
I wait quietly for the white light to appear and the light did not disappoint, less than 1 minute had passed since I had arrived
Where will fate take me this time ...
I close my eyes as the light illuminates everything
When I open them again the black void is gone, now I'm in what appears to be a hallway
In a hospital, I see what appear to be nurses, they are running with some utensils in the direction of one of the doors in the hall
I decided to follow them to see what this vision is about, although I can already imagine it
Inside a woman is lying down and another nurse, they are in labor
It placed me in a better position to be able to observe who the woman is on the stretcher
How I imagine, is my mother
I don't think this is my birth, I didn't see any other Gaunt nearby, it also looks like a muggle hospital, I highly doubt that Morfin would have allowed his heir to be born in this place
It seems that the baby is about to be born, the nurses constantly repeat to Merope "PUSH! PUSH! It's coming! "
she was not lying, because the child was born.
a little pale white baby with brown eyes, cried as he saw his mother, our mother
the midwife grabbed the child and passed it to Merope, she looked at him for a while in silence, then said in a weakened voice:
"I hope he looks like his dad"
"His name will be Tom, like his father, and Marvolo, like his grandfather and his last name, will be Riddle"
she just remained silent while she saw the little tom, I could notice that little by little the light in her eyes was fading
It seems that my mother is close to death, who would think that the Gaunt family would have another heir and probably the son of a Muggle
hahaha, luckily, old Marvolo is dead, just to imagine what would have happened if he had found out in life that his only daughter gave birth to a muggle's son, I can't help but imagine that scene, very funny
He probably would have killed them both, yes, he did not die before the rage
How interesting, I will probably meet him in the future at Hogwarts, that is if he can use magic
It seems that the idea of having all the wands of the Gaunt family can no longer be completed, who knows where Merope's wand will be found.
I could also use Tom's wand as a replacement in my collection.
after a few minutes, I have the feeling that Merope is about to die ...
indeed, that is how it happened, about five minutes later she died in silence
the child did not cry, in silence, he looked at his mother, at the corpse of Merope
I feel the light come back again before it blinds me I close my eyes
When I open them again I'm in the familiar black void again
a somewhat disturbing scene I thought
I imagine that Tom must be the son of the muggle my mother ran away with, the one who according to my uncle Morfin also disappeared for a while after we were all captured in Azkaban

As I reflected on this, the white light returned again, I close my eyes while I wait for a new vision to await me.
When I open my eyes the scene changed, now I am in a kind of office, quite large, there is a desk at the end of the room, many large shelves, about 10 feet long with a lot of books and a fireplace on the diagonal right side of the desk
what I can see is that the room is empty, I don't recognize where I am
But that would soon change, the office door opens and I can see four people enter, Professors Albus Dumbledore and Horace Slughorn accompanied by Assistant Principal Tori Edevane and Principal Armando Dippet, the latter hurriedly entered and positioned himself at the desk, while Dippet stroked his head
"This is unacceptable Armando Dippet!" yelled Tori
"How can you make the main suspect a young man that you all know very well, has been the object of political machinations"
"For Merlin's beard, the boy spent 10 years in Azkaban because of the testimony of a muggle who probably can't recognize if I am a woman or a man even in front of me"
"Now you want to make him the main suspect because the owner of the dead owl, who is also the person who harassed him almost daily, says that he is the only person who has a reason to hurt him"
"You are crazy, it seems that I need to recommend a visit to San Mungo" said Tori very angry.
"Calm down Tori" Albus and Dippet replied
Dippet continued speaking "You better than anyone knows the possible implications that it may have if it is discovered that we have a potential murderer at school, the ministry is looking for the opportunity to interfere in our work, our position is not easy"
Albus also tried to calm her down "you know Tori, the ministry has me in their sights for Gellert, we can't let this topic get too wide or it would be the perfect excuse for them to intervene"
Horace didn't say anything, he seemed thoughtful.
"So what is your solution, blame the young Alexander for the stupid testimony of the boy from the Rosier family? You better than anyone knows how cunning that person is, I would not be surprised if he had ordered the young rosier to kill his own owl, as a macabre initiation ritual and to get the last descendant of the Gaunt family out of the way "
"I am not willing to play their game, as long as I am here that will not be the Hogwarts that I will represent, one that falls under the orders or designs of the wizard families, you heard Dippet" Tori reminded her vehemently.
"Yes Tori, calm down, we haven't said we're going to blame Mr. Alexander, only he can be considered a suspect, also you are wrong about something Tori, he can be cunning but consider first the interests of the group of twenty-eight and much more his own, giving him the order to kill his own owl would do damage to Mr. Rosier, that could damage your plans for the future, without a doubt it would leave a scar in the relationship, for that reason I doubt very much that he would have given that kind of order "was what Dippet replied.

Then Horace intervened, while he was sitting in an armchair looking at the fireplace, he spoke and said "I think we should not rush ... if he is Alexander or not, we do not know for sure, what I have been able to observe from him is a great dedication and love for the study, by magic, not only me, I think all the teachers can attest to that, in more than 1 month I think he has only visited 4 places in the whole castle, the Slytherin house, the great hall, the classrooms of class and the library, if you are not sleeping you are studying and if you are not studying you are probably sleeping, his dedication to studying is admirable at best, "
"I can attest to that" Tori replied
After a silence in the office, Dippet asked: "What do you think of the boy, Albus?"
Professor Albus was silent for a few moments as if analyzing a difficult question on an exam and answered
"About the boy ... I'm not entirely sure, I see a lot of confusing things about him, it reminds me of ..."
As I listened to Professor Dumbledore speak about me, I felt that the light was about to appear, so I closed my eyes and effectively stopped listening to the conversation.
when I opened them, I was back in that familiar empty
interesting
It seems that the power struggle of the wizard families is not unknown to the magical world, there is important and very interesting information for me, I can confirm the existence of "he"
He seems to be a kind of representative of the sacred twenty-eight, known his existence now we must delve more into his personal information
"Only with prudence, wisdom and skill can great ends be achieved"
from what I could hear what I hoped would happen happened I am the prime suspect but they don't have any solid leads against me just a guess from the victim very dubious too
I did well to get the personalities of the people at school right, they do not have such a marked influence from the wizard families, some even seem to have problems with them, the most notable example is Assistant Principal Tori, from what she heard in her conversations she did not seems to be on good terms with some of them.
it is a pity not to have been able to hear the opinion of Professor Dumbledore
thinking about the conversation I just overheard, I feel the light come again, I close my eyes waiting for the new vision
when I open my eyes the scene they observe is that of a beautiful night in the middle of the forest
looking around I don't see anyone around
I decide to wait a few minutes in the same place in case something happens before starting to walk through the forest
while looking up at the dark sky I focused my ear in search of some strange noise in the surroundings.
a couple of minutes then I feel footsteps
I focus my gaze on the place where I think I heard the noises
I can see two robed and hooded people approaching from different sides, they seem to converge on where I am standing.
seconds later they are close to where I am,
"Why did you call me, what do you want now, you keep trying your luck, I still haven't forgotten what you did to me, I wear the mark on my body as a reminder" said one of the men
I recognize that voice, I know who that man is
Then the person who had spoken earlier took off the hood of her robe
While he pointed to a scar that went from his right ear to his chest, I could see who that man was (you can search for steve Buscemi scar to imagine it, but more serious)
As I imagined, that man with the scar is me, although I must admit that that scar looks great
I always wanted to have one
A shame that in my previous life I was a genius and never lost a battle while in command
While my future self showed the scar to the other person I kept saying
"Although I have to admit that using that girl was a great strategy on your part, the possibility that you had her under your control never crossed my mind"
"Tell me, what do you want from me, you shouldn't abuse your luck due to the pact I made"
"Alexander, you and I together, we can create something great, a huge movement that shakes the whole world, where we are the ones who manage all, your power and wisdom will be necessary to obtain power," said the other person with a man's voice
Something happened that left me astonished, while they were talking, the me of the future looked in the direction where I was standing, where there was nothing or no one, but I felt that he was looking at me while doing this, the alexander of the future smiled and said
"Hahaha come on little brother, do you think I don't know what you're trying to do? You can fool your stupid followers but not me, why don't you show me your face, or are you afraid? "
While screaming he said
"It is more cruel to fear death than to die"
"Your weaknesses are notorious little brother, this is the last time I warn you, stop bothering me, remember that only you are included in the pact, or do you want your stupid organization to be just you and that silly snake?"
"Do not tempt death Tom"
As the Alexander of the future left, he shot me a look again
The truth is something strange, although it makes sense, if I am looking at him right now, he also had to look at me in the past, to know that the me of the past is looking at the me of the future.
I feel a little strange ...
Leaving that topic aside, it seems that we have problems with our little brother, it seems that Tom's wings grew, so many unanswered questions
While I was thinking about all this the light returns, I close my eyes and I am again in that empty familiar void.
It seems the future will be interesting, although I just thought of something
Could it be that I myself allowed the girl they talk about to hurt me to get that scar?
