Preventing A Prophecy

What if there was a prophecy predicting Tom Marvolo Riddle to be the most powerful dark wizard to ever exist, a prophecy that predicted every wrong choice the boy made and every death he caused.

What if it was a girl, Katherina Dracula to be exact, that is named as the catalyst of this prophecy?

If there's nothing to be learnt from Greek mythology, is it not that trying to prevent a prophecy is actually what causes it?

Apparently, the Ministry of Magic didn't get that memo.

For the problem with Tom Riddle was not that he couldn't love, just that he hadn't ever been shown how.
