Chapter 2
Luna and Ginny got jobs in a bookstore. One day, at an apartment they were renting, Luna began asking about TMR.
"He told me about how his dad was murdered, at the end, I remember ."
It was a lovely July day. The sun sweltering above the young Tom Riddle was walking through the small town of Little Hangleton. He had heard that his parents were from there and wanted to see them. So he was moving through the world with a look of deep satsification. He was going to the visit the great manor house.
Tom was under the belief that his mother {A women named Merope Gaunt} was the muggle and that his father was not pure but at least a half blood}. He was alone, he did not tell his 'Friends' about his venture to the town of Little Hangleton.
Ginny looked at Luna.
"That was not true was it?" Luna inferred.
"Yes, it was not. Merope was of the pureblooded Gaunt family, a family that was once as powerful and well known as the ones today, was now inbreeded. His uncle was insane and alone. So TMR being the charming son of a bitch he is, charmed him into telling him about his father. His father was muggle."
Luna had never heard of the times that Ginny would see memories or hear from TMR. Both Luna and Ginny did not speak his name or anything close.
"So he killed them."
"Yes, he killed them. Anger at his name matching that of muggle and one that abadanoned the powerful gaunt. Despair that his mother was the pureblood and so weak as to die. He killed his entire family, all who would recognize him and blamed on the uncle left. His name, one of the first victims, was Morfin Gaunt."

NORMALITY of the situation was something that caused no concern. Luna and Ginny had settled. What they did not know was one of the best trackers, trained by Bellatrix Lestrange, herself, Draco had found them.
Luna was the first to realize with a sense of trepidation that they had seriously miscalculated.
Ginny had actually caught Ned Shafiq, a snatcher.
That night, Draco along with Blaise Zambini and Theo Nott had snuck into the flat silently. They had knocked them out.
A COUPLE HOURS later, Ginny awoke to the sound of Luna's confused voice and a voice that was muffled.
"I know that you are awake." said a voice that she had never thought she would hear ago.
"Tom," She sighed out almost moaning.
When she opened her eyes, she saw his eyes. They were human, not the awful snake like things they had been. They were blue rather than red and they were focused.
"You look.... like.... you but older." Ginny said.
He did, infact look older, she would age him at about 23. He was staring at her a bit longingly but amused.
"I am." was all he said.
