"Devil, " you call me

But seems to be enjoying

The fruits of my labour that came to me too young

When he stole my virtue

I'm glad it seems to serve you

That I was born a daughter and not a son

For if I'm going down

I guess I'll take you with me

Screaming birds sound an awful lot like singing

And I will tell you now

That I'm not even singing

There's no escape for some

Least of all for me

1952, England. It has been almost seven years since Tom had graduated from Hogwarts, and he has been nothing but ambitious since. Every day passing was another stepstone until he would reach his final goal, another day before he became the most powerful, the eternal, the darkness brooming over this world before he could build his own one. And you, who had been a good company to him during his school years, who had so willingly followed him and his ideas for the future after graduation until you learned the truth behind his sweet whispered lies. You, once his right hand, now his sworn grim reaper.

You are Tom's enemy, not the greatest, but the most beloved — the one he had created with his own hands. You want his demise, and he wants you back on his side. This story didn't start with you. Not with Dumbledore and Grindelwald, not even with Jesus and Judas — it goes way back. A beginning so forgotten, yet the same story still. And this story won't end with you two.

But it will end in blood.
