CHAPTER 21
Dumbledore, with the Order of the Phoenix, was at the Borrow, thinking about his plan.
We know that his plan is a disaster, tragedy even a catastrophe, but for him, the plan is great, magnificent, wonderful, splendid and probably even glorious in his eyes too.
And this is because we know what he does not.
We know where is Harry Potter.
We know that Harry Potter found out the truth.
We know Harry Potter is Hadrian Riddle.
We know that Hadrian Riddle is planning his revenge against Albus Dumbledore.
We know that his plan against Albus Dumbledore is in action at this moment.
We know that Albus Dumbledore does not know a thing about this said plan.
And we know that his plan is going to crumble in front of his eyes by the end thanks to Hadrian Riddle.
Albus Dumbledore sat in front of the Order of the Pheonix, looking at everyone from the head table.
They were a small group, on this he can't argue, but in his opinion they were strong one too.
He thought they were good at manipulating.
He thought that they were so good that it was a surprise to him that none of them were at Slytherin or in Slytherin in those days. Yes, in those days, since they have three people at the Borrow right now who are students at Hogwarts, two of them in the fourth year and one in the third year, each one of them is very important in their manipulating part.
But we know how bad at manipulating they are, and the same to all the other members. Without their potions, their plan would probably have crumbled already.
And we know that they have not a big amount of magic in their veins, proof to that can be seen in their performance, and that why they are using "Harry Potter" to destroy the "Dark Lord".
And on this was their meeting, Harry Potter.
The school year had come, however, Harry Potter didn't but someone else in exchange, in the name Hadrian Riddle.
They know about said Hadrian Riddle that he has a sad past: an orphan, who grew up at an orphanage for the past thirteen years in Greece, with the only knowledge about his past is that he is from England.
They know that Hadrian went to a magical school in Greece for a very powerful and prodigy children for magic.
They know that somehow Hadrian Riddle and Draco Malfoy had an early creature inheritance and found each other, and all of this under one summer, thanks to the creature inheritance test in Gringotts.
They know that Hadrian Riddle decided to stay in Britain for his mate, although he could stay in one of the greatest schools for magic in the world (which the Ministry of Magic in Britain would never admit), he decided to learn in the same school as his mate, for the no need to be separated for long periods.
They know that Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy are thinking about transferring the children to the school in Greece, with the knowledge that their son can handle the pressure there, something that can hurt their plan.
But alas, they need to focus right now on the most important part of their plan, Harry Potter.
Immediately after the feast, Dumbledore went with the two youngest Weasleys and Hermione Granger to Privet Drive, to seek Harry Potter and to see if there is a reason as to why he didn't come to Hogwarts.
To their utter surprise, Harry Potter wasn't there, and apparently, he was gone for the past two months. The Dursleys saw this as a good thing: they didn't have any connection to the magical world anymore, and for them, it was a blessing. So immediately after they answered all Dumbledore's questions they closed the door in his face without any other word.
Dumbledore though to be angry and disappointed at the same time because of the very reason that one of the most important tools in his plan is gone.
"What do you think Albus, do you have any knowledge as to where we can find the boy?" Moly asked, getting him back to reality. Unfortunately, he didn't have any idea as to where they can find Harry Potter, the brat child who lived.
He thought that maybe he could use Hadrian Riddle in exchange for Harry Potter, but as sad as it could be for him, the youngers from them destroyed the small chance they already had, but alas, maybe he can fix this.
"Unfortunately I don't have a clue, my dear. All the tracking spells had somehow detected to the brat's bed before he left and we don't have any clues to where he could run. So if I could sum it up, no I don't see any way to find him except to wait for a clue to pop up and to find a new savior for now," He said, a grim look on his face.
He couldn't believe how his plan went downhill in one moment.
And while Dumbledore thought on how to get out of his own mess, while hearing half hearty the whining from the younger Weasleys, Hadrian decided to add to this mess, with a simple note and a Death Eater.
-&-&-&-
The first day of school.
He woke up, went to the shower, brushed his teeth, combed his hair, got dressed, woke up his mate, put him on the counter in the bathroom, brought clothes for him, put a toothbrush in his hand and went out of the bathroom to read on the bed while his mate gets ready.
Hadrian got out of the bathroom with a sleepy face and uncombed hair, and his mate, Draco Malfoy, took his hand and together they got out from their private shared room.
They went to the Slytherin common room and Draco sat his mate on the sofa and then sat himself, waiting for their friends to come to go to breakfast together, while Hadrian decided to lay on the sofa and using Draco as a pillow when waiting.
They came and together they went to the Great Hall for breakfast.
They sat in the Slytherin table and began to serve themselves food. Hadrian decided to lay his head on Draco's shoulder while eating an apple. His friends looked at him worriedly, but since Draco didn't, they put their worry aside and began to eat.
Lessons started, and then lunch, some more lessons and the end of the day came. They did some of their homework and went to dinner, and Hadrian piled more food than them this time with a big smile that was forming while the day went.
He chatted with everyone and even told them some embarrassing stories about Gryffindor, which were hilarious, the whole Slytherin table was on the floor and they didn't even get to the dessert.
Some of the teachers were worried about them, thinking someone cursed the table, while others thought it was scary: the table who avoided showing emotions in public, laugh freely in front of them. The only one who wasn't on the floor at this moment was Hadrian, which was the one to make everyone in his table a laughing mess.
Every day for the past month was like this: Draco would wake him up and take him to the Great Hall, eating with his friends, going to classes, eating lunch, some more lessons, doing homework on Draco's lap and going to dinner telling the Slytherin table the most embarrassing stories this school has to offer, which wasn't too hard to find, and Peeves sometimes even joined and told them what had he done to the staff in the past, which made the whole table laughing his ass off on the ground begging to Peeves to stop so they can take some breath.
When their friend asked Draco about his gummy behavior in the morning, had told them it is because the blocks, his body needs to adjust being awake and active in his new form, and this is the reason why he is less active in the mornings.
And every time they finished dinner, Hadrian and Draco would go to their room and cuddled each other, reading or doing some last homework, and the best part of the day in Hadrian opinion was to sleep with Draco every night in their shared bed, hugging Draco while he did the same to him.
And that how the month went till Halloween came, the two other schools came, and the next part of their plan.
And all the while Hadrian was happy, after all, it always calms before the storm.
