“Dear, are you sure you don’t want us coming with you?” Gloria Molley asked her eleven years old eager daughter.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcsWe00wS9
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wuLwIHCl4
Ophelia nodded, smiling so widely that she felt her face stretch.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRDzKYOmmP
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXfE3UNX42
Truthfully, Ophelia Molley has never felt so excited about something in her life before. Her memories concerning her real mother have grown vague and insignificant. She could still remember Lillian’s name and face but she could hardly remember how she sounded like when speaking or the things she did for her daughter. Ophelia spent three years in the orphanage before Gloria and Richard Molley adopted her and even though she didn’t want to leave and start a new life, Dumbledore’s words encouraged her to move forward. Life with her new family was greater than she ever imagined and when she became aware of her unique set of skills, her life became significant.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHfYOvAi3P

On the morning she received the letter from Hogwarts, Ophelia was eating her breakfast, not excited but not cranky either; just normal.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkubzENVza
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡneOTHA7NNt
“What’s this?” Gloria asked, finding a letter specifically sent to Ophelia. “Have you made a pen pal, Pheli?”1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPkmk1DYvq
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgR2phKpm5B
The girl looked at her mother, confused before jumping on her feet and taking the letter. She read the first few paragraphs before she remembered the man in the park. She could never forget that pale face that felt so familiar, those cold eyes that made her feel cornered even if she could run away whenever she wanted to and the way he grew flowers in the air with what looked like a weirdly shaped stick.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnPri9SuAL

Gloria snatched the page from Ophelia and read it twice, each time her eyes peeking over the parchment to see how Ophelia was reacting. She wasn’t. That letter meant much more than anyone could imagine and the one thing she noticed right away was the name of the headmaster: Albus Dumbledore. That was the man that reached out to her and helped her when her mother died and he was the one sending her the best present as of yet.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Zz3DNAuQM
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbn2YlJmWxA
“Where do these people live? Such peculiar stuff can’t be found on the streets of Britain. Maybe a hundred years ago but not anymore.” Gloria added, her ramble going on and on if someone wouldn’t interfere.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nJ64ulIwN
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTwp7SRBE7
At the right moment, Richard Molley walked downstairs and smiled at his daughter. He had something hidden behind but his surprise was cut off.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JLNQ6vYq0
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN068bgs42W
“Richard dear, Ophelia got a letter from a place called Hogwarts. It says here that it is a school for young witches and wizards. Have you signed her up for something and didn’t tell me beforehand? Again?”1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkiTOoxC2a
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3BHLqdHLc
Richard looked very offended by his wife’s incrimination but curiosity led him to find out what was happening. He walked passed his daughter and placed her present on the table before reading the letter. Much like Gloria, his eyes widened and he had to read it a few more times to fully comprehend it was real.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0VOkUWP4V
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPegDzoETG
“Well, it is strange.”1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNJSRoJRz3
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIU0ml5buV
“I know the headmaster.” Ophelia interrupted before the two adults would say something bad. “Albus Dumbledore, he visited me in the orphanage before. I’m sure he wouldn’t send a joke to me on my birthday.” She added, lying before worrying the Molleys further.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuf5nI2GFgd
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWdkAhoXjO
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUKxuFWS2q
It took Gloria a whole week to calm down and understand that her daughter truly wanted something in her life and nothing could change her mind. Richard used his connections to the Scotland Yard in order to find more information about Hogwarts but no one knew anything.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WcWSJYvWV
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEopD0bpBE
Unfortunately, that led to a very ugly fight between Gloria and Richard, dispute that forced Ophelia to sneak out and wander the neighborhood on her own, at dawn.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡru0m9rAB43
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyXmmv4GFJ
The sunlight was dimming and the twilight was incredibly beautiful. Ophelia ended up in a newly renovated bus stop. It was a bit chilly but very comfortable outside making her feel content that she found a place where she could be by herself.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIXPVs7WU1
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFB9WlOglP
Now, after looking from side to side, making sure no one was walking by, Ophelia raised her hands in front of her and swayed them graciously. Sparkles of blue light were following her hands, moving cutely into different shapes when moving her fingers. She smiled, drawn into the magic she was doing. Yes, now she knew it was magic.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8B6sbtdECX
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtfGatNhXb
“You got the hang of it very fast, haven’t you?”1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXEXRNAPY1
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33BDFNx2UI
Ophelia’s eyes widened and the shapes vanished. She looked around, scared that someone actually saw her and would probably call her out on it.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzicm2wTPoT
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PuMHifIia
But no. It was the man with eyes that could stir something in her, something that has been sleeping for a very long time.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhxbISNEhu
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqIfxxMprK
“I know you. We met last year in the park. You were right, I can do things that my parents can’t. It’s amazing!” She said, a wide smile appearing on her face.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqdKLz10WN
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgu2peTNGWk
For a second, the pale man felt the desire to see Ophelia dead. The reason was her smile, which looked the same as Lillian’s but then he saw the glint in her eyes and knew it was up to him to lead Ophelia towards the right path.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLJ5rG9lXR
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErFPJPbxbY
“I got a letter from a school called Hogwarts. My parents are fighting right now; my mum wants me to go because she thinks it would make me happy.” She started, the pale man sitting next to her.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TvymXUXol
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8UkvCV8Mh
“You should go. Hogwarts is a good start for you. They will teach you everything you need to know and I can even help you, if you want it of course.” Those gentle words didn’t sound as gentle, especially when his eyes met hers.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGOrTqGEPh
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAx6LT5o61t
“But what about the necessities and reply? I don’t have an owl and-“ She stopped when the handsome stranger opened his hand towards her.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpP5Wu7XuY
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TSB9ZR76R
“I can help you with that too. You only have to accept it.”1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKDHoIvkuK
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbiqlt8iA2
“I don’t even know who you are or at least your name.” She said naïve enough to believe he would be explicit.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthdvHfXvyD
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThV7kSvfEE
Those icy eyes of his twinkled bemusedly before he responded.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmHkY3NAmX
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBmZSvo0jw
“You and I, we’re the same, Ophelia. We belong to a world far above what usual people can see. We have magic; old, strong magic and we can do wonders with it. You just have to trust me.”1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1G8OY6n0w
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ694oatxb6N
Those words were only the beginning of what Tom Riddle was about to create. Oh, he was going to craft Ophelia into his heir and he was sure he would not meet any defense because Ophelia’s desire and curiosity for unknown were going to lead her right into his nest.
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88kYWQv5uk
Ophelia Molley has always been a girl who thought that nothing in the world could make her squeal in delight, not after her childhood has been engulfed in uncertainties. Once she grabbed Tom’s hand, she felt like her world slimmed and felt her stomach turn upside down. Her surroundings passed by incredibly fast and when they finally stopped, Tom pushed her forward and let her see the world she was part of.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6otF94UGG
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBJDnHRD6c
There were shops selling robes, shops selling telescopes and strange silver instruments Ophelia had never seen before, windows stacked with barrels of bat spleens and eels' eyes, tottering piles of spell books, quills, and rolls of parchment, potion bottles, globes of the moon and other stuff that she could not even name.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOLFHsp9Of
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgomq2sVGTc
“Diagon Alley. Every student buys his necessities from here.” Tom explained, pulling his cloak over his head.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxAKkdEorb
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡritVRHk0Sr
“But what about money? I don’t have any right now and-“She stopped when she saw Tom putting his finger on his lips as a gesture to shut up.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLlyNO2cct
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMjQ1co8ni
Tom smirked under his cloak, assured that Lillian definitely left her daughter enough for a comfortable life. Therefore, he led her towards a magnificent building down the northern part of Diagon Alley. Ophelia’s eyes widened when they got in front of it and gasped when she saw someone very small, about a few inches smaller than her, standing at the door.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjl5CFNyJAf
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ww3DqVNLJ
“What now?” She asked, looking at Tom for answers.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYb1cEon1v
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAdFcc05EG
But the man vanished. Ophelia licked her lips and fidgeted nervously, afraid that something will happen and she won’t be able to get out, like back in Aviemore.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39PPCBGUYM
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs34NwnkRHV
“Is there something wrong?”1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyge9A0YAGF
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKn5o9JM7KV
Ophelia’s eyes widened even more and she spun around in order to face whoever was behind her.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYfkF1eFIF
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vUTuWAky3
Unlike what she imagined, it was a boy older than her with grey eyes and long blond hair. He was looking down at her with some kind of authority which was strange because he didn’t look that important. No one around them seemed to pay attention to him.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhZU2VhVkO
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvCNItnyemA
“You’re blocking the entrance.” He spoke again, his tone low and empathic.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQCuFy5DQP
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawvRcPnrxh
“What is that?” She asked, seeing how he was the only person she could ask.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNNb2Zbd9f
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtRGm7ZbT6
The blond raised an eyebrow, a bit appalled by this little girl in front of him. His eyes narrowed at her, scanning her face thoroughly. Those elongated pale green eyes made her look like a fox but at the moment, she looked scared.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ktnArDwG3
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyITsh9lIL
“Are you a mud blood?” He asked, leaning in. “You know, muggle born. You woke up one day and you could make things that others around you couldn’t.”1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01r8q4g2Ow
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTa6kj0whbQ
Ophelia blinked, her eyes’ glint shifting from fear to confusion and curiosity. She nodded slowly, unsure if she should take that as a good sign or not.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSfPZztSJD
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGyjYBxbuI
“What are muggles?” She asked, making the blond react with even more stupor.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCDMYAfeVx
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCRb7HnDhZ
“Where have you been living?!” He exclaimed, “Muggles are people with no magic. Mud bloods are witches and wizards born from muggle parents. There’s also half bloods which are wizards born from a muggle and a witch/wizard. And then, there are people like me, pure bloods, born from both magical parents. Now, which one are you?”1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQQJNbVcXJ
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7ZFFGRob6
“I don’t know. I came here with-“ Ophelia stopped, realizing the stranger never told her his name. She groaned, frustrated that she let such an important detail bypass her. “He said he’s like me. That our magic is old and strong.”1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JLyju2tsR
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsare8VUtil
The blond leaned back and seized the little girl up. She was probably eleven years old and she came to buy her stuff for Hogwarts. Her hands were empty and she was dressed in light clothing, didn’t have a wand and looked thoroughly like a lost puppy.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWaJTwrYluX
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4Ehhk3B3Z
“That’s Gringotts Wizarding Bank. You can exchange currencies from muggle money to wizarding money.” He explained, his tone still empathic and still looking down at her from the corner of his eye, like she was a pest.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2wBlmT1lz
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlC5u4in17
“But I don’t have any right now.” She continued, having no idea what to do.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoFVfosH4i
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAglimq6XA
The blond sighed and nudged her aside, “Then don’t block the entrance, stupid mud blood.” He grumbled, walking up the stairs and entering the bank.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0twwZqUrTL
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqN6pDU91oh
Left all alone, Ophelia moved aside and looked at everyone passing by, with no idea where to go or what to do.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJuyQ5D0Ca
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoe8YPFTi9
It was a few hours later when she found herself in front of a shop called Eeylops Owl Emporium. She peeked inside and smiled when a brown sharp looking owl turned and stared right into her eyes. Those black eyes of his seemed to be speaking to her so she entered and went straight to him.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3kBFVbNof
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4Ndp9HkMk
“Interesting owl, isn’t he?”1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWWp31MKFu
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgMuA6WwhD
Ophelia felt her heart beat out of her chest when she felt a cold hand touching her shoulder. She looked up at him and frowned.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqk2oCT8MZN
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTAce2YTNN
“You left me alone in front of the bank.”1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHH3oUHbPZ
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPCgyFQU7c
Tom couldn’t help but chuckle lightly. She was frustrated and was finding him strange and a bit suspicious but she still followed him out of the store. 1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKn9jJOCZZE
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMiGNYKgE9
“That owl looked lonely. “ Opelia started, “He looked at me with so much intensity and sadness. It made me feel bad for him.”1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3Kn2ZQI14
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZbk8wBJwQ
“You do need an owl. Sometimes, they choose you to be their master. Owls can be very loyal if they get attached to their master.” Tom explained, his mind going back to Lillian’s white owl that vanished from the face of the earth. “Some choose to die when their master dies.” He continued.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mgDR6AFHb
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoZfI4bZqN
“Well, that one looked like he would just fly away if his master dies. He looked independent but lonely.” She said, her eyes following a pair of children her age that were running with sticks in their hands. “What are those sticks for?” She asked, stopping when Tom did.1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRZKdl8Sk1
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCd7tfMyO3L
“Here.” He gave her a few gold coins before pointing at the store across the street. “These are enough for a wand. Afterwards, I will take you home. It’s getting late.”1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarasJbsUOv
1327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwskE5VSDEc
“But what about the other stuff and-“ She stopped when she realized he already vanished from her side.
