Hogwart 1980
The moon shone down upon Hogwarts illuminating two dark robed figures.
One was clothed in pitch black hooded robes. The robes shrouded any form of the persons visage from view, creating an eerie atmosphere. Although almost entirely un revealing it was possible to see that this person was tall, muscular and had harrowing blood red eyes.
The other was a tall women robed in dark green silk, unlike her companion her clothing was not eerie nor mysterious. She appeared to be a very a curvy well proportioned women. In the gentle light of the moon a pale delicate face could be seen framed by bright red crimson hair capable of making any man stare in lust. She had bright ocean blue eyes akin to precious gemstones in their beauty. If someone was to look closely upon the women they would see a mischievous almost sadistic look upon her face.
The two figures quickly strode up the old trodden path towards the ancient castle of hogwarts not once pausing to take in its magnificence.
As the pair arrived at the towering doors to hogwarts a stern and obviously stressed women greeted them with a scowl of pure malice.Strangely the duo showed no surprise at the women's hatred almost appearing to have anticipated it.
The women was dressed in long bright green robes that revealed nothing of what lay beneath. Her face although seemingly once a great beauty was now aged and haggard by years of stress.
"Your despicable! " the women spat creating no illusions of friendliness. In a clearly demanding tone she then stated " follow me immediately "
Completely unfazed by the women's disrespectful and angry tone the , the duo followed the rapidly fleeting women with haste.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I watched my wife walk in front of me , smirking almost imperceptibly at the gentle swaying of her hips.
As we neared that god forsaken office i began to grow more and more paranoid.
My wife Ellie glanced back at my giving me a reassuring smile at my state. It still surprises me how she can read me like an open book.
Although i would never admit it to anyone but i was only doing this because of her. She made me realise that there is more to life than power and vengeance.
As we rounded the final corner the gargoyle that guarded Dumbledore office came into sight.
I began to mentally prepare myself for the oncoming confrontation. I knew that no matter what it was not going to be full of smiles, but that was to be expected at an arranged meeting between dumbledore and voldemort.
Minerva quickly spoke the password, which humorously was jamie dodgers , and we walked up the spiraling staircase to what would be one of the most important things i have ever done. If i failed today... i couldn't think like that i had to be successful , if not for myself then for Harry and Ashlyn.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As i stood in front of the door to the dumbledores office i felt Tom grip my hand to calm himself and reassure me.
Unlike everyone else i knew Tom was terrified off what was to come, we both knew that if this didn't work then the war would be forced to continue to an inevitable bloody demise. Tom may fool everyone into thinking he was always confident at his actions but i knew the truth. I knew that he was here for me and our children and i knew he was afraid because unlike when he started this war determined to bring the wizarding world to greatness he now had something to lose.
As a glanced at his face and he smirked at me, god how i loved that smirk. In that moment i knew that no matter what happened today we would ensure that our children were happy and safe.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Calm and collected with my wife at my side we went to knock on the door. As to be expected before our hand even connected with the door Dumbledore exclaimed "come in" surprising no one.
As i stood before dumbledore i instantly regretted my choice to come here today. Seeing him sat there so calm and cheerfully filled me with rage. How can a man filled with so much evil so much cruelty look so goddamn cheerful.
I clenched ellies hand tightly trying desperately to control the anger within me. This man had caused me so much sadness so much suffering. If it wasn't for ellies calming presence a furious duel would already have broken out.
Peacefully almost as if nothing was wrong with the current situation , dumbledore calmly requested that we take our seats.
Hesitantly i took my seat already feeling as if something was wrong even through my blinding fury.
Suddenly in the span of seconds everything went wrong. I saw the all so familiar sickly green spell accelerate towards Ellie and i knew i could do nothing.
I drew my wand and tried desperately to cast a spell before it collided with its target but i was to slow.immediately the mischievous look fled her eyes and the look of happiness escaped her face almost like it did not want to leave such a beautiful face.
Angrier and sadder then i had ever been i let my magic swirl around me in a chaotic storm as i thought to stop the tears from falling.
Blinded by my rage and rapidly oncoming depression and did not see the spell fly from the concealed man in to my back. All i felt was a spell collide with my back then the world when black.
As the world faded to black all that crossed my mind was one thought, please let me be dead because i new i could not handle life without her.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Smiling darkly Dumbledore began to laugh cynically appearing to have slipped into madness.
Once he conclude his laughter he looked upon his now visible ally. "Well done" he exclaimed way to cheerful considering what had just taken place.
Now it is only a matter of time before the every man women and child magical and muggle alike bows low on their knees and praises us as the gods we Dumbledore declared in a tone that hinted at severe unadulterated arrogance.
The man laughed at his allies small speech before levitating the two unmoving bodies and beginning the methodical transfer to Nurmengard.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile in riddle manor
Two small children sat together in a lone large bedroom. Ignored by the harsh world they lived in.
The young boy was tall for his age and had neat jet black luxurious hair and ruby red eyes that accented his sharp features giving him an ominous appearance. He sat quietly ignorant of his surroundings while he read a book that he was obviously finding incredibly interesting.
A few feet away his sister sat smiling serenely as she played with the toys around her. She had very gentle delicate features and bright red hair similar in appearance to a flickering flame. Her eyes were the antithesis of her brothers though she would say harrys where more beautiful she preferred her deep blue eyes that she gained from her mother.
The children appeared to be the opposites of one another, while one was cheerful,childlike and all around bright the other child was unnaturally serious for his age and showed no other emotion other then content.
No matter how different the two may be there where an inseparable pair that refused to be split up for any reason whatsoever no matter how logical. Unfortunately at this very moment they shared one more thing in common, they both were completely unaware of how they life was about to change for the worse.
Harry and Ashlyn Riddle had no idea of their pessimistic future.

Nurmengard
The cell Tom Riddle formerly lord voldemort now resided in a small dingy, depressing ,hallow ,boring ,rotting cell ranting in a fit of absolute rage at his situation.
Currently he refused to even think about his wife because he knew if he did he could not deal with the grief so he pushed the memories and thoughts away to focus on more important ideas.
He had stopped ranting and now sat staring at a wall with a glare capable of murder.
Presently he was trying to conceive a way to get out or find care for the children but due to his misanthropic nature he had very few allies that could be trusted.
Suddenly a idea struck him and although he did not want to do it , in his current state he desperately needed a solution and this seemed to be the only option.
Still indecisive but aware that he had no choice he called his elf Morby and quickly relayed the task through his cells window to the elf.
Luckily just outside his window was not warded from elves but it would not allow him to escape.
Almost silently the elf popped away and for a second the man just started completely unresponsive.
A broken man complete lacking any form of hope he broke down to sobs and cried himself to sleep in a cell far from his hope completely isolated.
