Note: I'm a bored 17 year old trying to improve my writing for AP Lang, so bear with me pls. I plan on uploading new part every Saturday-Sunday so stay tuned for more! The moment you opened your eyes, the world around you shimmered with a golden haze. The ancient magic had worked, and you had been sent back to a time before the darkness, before Voldemort. The goal was simple in theory: stop Tom Riddle before he became the monster that history remembered. Yet, nothing could have prepared you for the reality of facing him. Hogwarts in the 1940s was different, quieter, laced with an air of sophistication that modern times had lost. And there he was, sitting alone in the library, eyes scanning over a book that seemed to contain content on dark magic. You had to be careful, strategic. But when his sharp, calculating gaze met yours for the first time, something inside you shifted. You had planned to befriend him, to guide him down a different path-but what you hadn't expected was how drawn he would be to you. Tom Riddle was not used to being intrigued by others. People were pawns, tools, means to an end. But you were different. You spoke to him as if he were more than his ambition, more than his hunger for power. And, somehow, he found himself caring about what you thought of him. He began seeking you out, drawn like a moth to a flame. You challenged him in ways no one ever had-questioned his ideals, his fascination with blood purity, his distrust of love. "You think you can change me?" he asked one evening, his voice low, dangerous. "I think you can change yourself," you answered. Could love alone rewrite destiny? Or were you simply delaying the inevitable?
