Uncertainty excites me, baby.

Who knows what is going to happen...

Lottery or Car crash
or you will join a cult...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was a usual late October morning. It was Halloween and the whole place was decorated with pumpkins and scary decoration.

As the kids were drinking their morning pumpkin juice in the great hall, headmaster Dipped got up and made an announcement. "I'm happy to welcome a new student today. A young girl in 6th year from Beauxbatons. Please welcome, Brea McQuid!"

Freyja widened her eyes at the thought that one of her ex-friends and classmates was here today.

A short girl with ginger hair and green eyes walked in the room and all the eyes turned her way. She moved to the front, where she sat on the sit in the middle.

When the shorting hat was placed on her head, the whole room went silent. After a while, the hat made its final decision "Gryffindor!"

The witch moved to the red table. Freyja dig her nails into the wooden table and stared at the new girl. "someone dislikes the new student" Tom whispered in her ear.

"If you knew her like I do, you would hate her too"

"Well, she's a Gryffindor, I already dislike her."

"And she's a half-blood too."

Tom made a disgusted face that made Freyja laugh.

"it's the first time I saw you laugh"

"You don't even smile!"

"Have you guys seen my sister?'' A woman's voice interrupted their conversation. Eva stood in front of the kids. None of the five teens spoke.

"Adryan's not here either..." Darius glanced around the room, looking for his friend.

"Bella told me she wanted to dress up for Halloween, so she was going to be late. As for Adryan, I have no idea..." Freyja said while sipping her juice.

"I hate Halloween!" Tom admitted.

"What?" Freyja looked at him shocked "It is my favourite night of the year!"

"Why? You like dressing up as people you are not?"

"No, but I like scaring people. And sweets. Especially caramel sweets!"

"You sound like a kid"

"well, better than a miserable adult like you!"

"Hey lads!" Bella stood where her sister previously stood. She was wearing a grey dress, ending just below her knees. Her hair was tied in a low bun and her lips were painted black.

"What are you supposed to be?" Abrahas asked the young girl while smirking.

"A muggle!" Tom chocked with his drink and everyone started laughing.

"That is truly terrifying!"

Freyja was having fun with her friends, until she noticed the new girl staring at her. She had a long backstory with Brea. A story she wasn't ready to tell.

"Slughorn is hosting a Halloween party toning. And I have to go with a partner." Tom said and looked at the three girls "So, who wants to be my date?"

The girls looked at each other. Eva smiled, hoping the girls wouldn't mind if she was the one accompanying Tom tonight.

"I can come. I mean, I don't have any plans."

"My dearest Eva, I would love you to come with me, but I know you hate balls. I don't want you to feel uncomfortable because of me."

"Oh, of course. Thanks..." Eva's smile suddenly disappeared.

"Freyja..." Tom turned his head to the right to meet with the girl

"What?" She asked while biting her toast.

"You are coming with me"

"No"

"Yes..."

"I don't want to"

"Yes, you do!"

Freyja rolled her eyes and let out a sigh. "Well, I need to ask Slughorn a favor, so okay..."

"Perfect! Seven o'clock, common room. Don't be late!"

"I'm never late"

"you are always late" Tom raised his eyebrow and got up. "I am going to the library. See you later"

7 o'clock, slytherin common room.

Freyja walked down the stairs. She was wearing a black, silk dress, matching her high heels. Her eyes were painted with dark eyeshadow and mascara, while she was wearing red lipstick. The eye area was covered with a black, elegant mask with a feather on the side while fake blood was covering her chin.

"You are late"

"ten minutes..."

"you are still late. What are you dressed?"

"A vampire. What are you?"

Tom was simple dressed. Black shirt and black trousers. " I am not dressed up"

"I can see it... Where is your mask?"

"What mask?"

"the one I am wearing."

"I was supposed to wear a mask?"

"Of course you were! It is a masquerade party!" Freyja let out a sigh and opened her golden shoulder bag. She took out a simple, black mask and passed it to Tom. He took it and covered his eyes with it. "Shall we go now?" Freyja nodded and walked in front of Tom.

As they were walking to the party, Freyja got lost in her thoughts.

"What are you thinking about?"

"Its been almost a month and nothing bad has happened. And now Brea came to Hogwarts"

"I don't understand why you don't like her. I mean, besides being a Gryffindor and a half-blood."

"First of all, you are half blood, too, so you don't have a right on hating them"

"Shut your mouth! I don't want anyone to know that!"

"Whatever... We just have really bad past"

"like what?"

"She was the reason I was expelled from Beauxbatons."

"You were expelled?! Why?"

"There are some things that need to stay secret, Riddle."

"couldn't agree more... I forgot to ask you, what do you want to ask Slughorn?"

"Horcruxes"

"Excuse me?" Tom stopped walking and turned to face her but she didn't stop. "Freyja!"

"I want to ask professor Slughorn about horcruxes. You promised to tell me what they are, but you didn't. So, I am going to learn the answer myself."

"Please, don't ask him that"

"Why?"

"It would be very suspicious since I asked him last year"

"If you know what they are, why are you not telling me?" Now, they were both facing each other. Freyja had crossed her arms and was looking at Tom angrily, but he was not answering her question "I am waiting!"

"meet me at the astronomy tower. 12 o'clock"

Astronomy tower, 12 o'clock

"I am glad you are not late"

Freyja sat next Tom, in the edge of the tower. His hair were messed up because of the wind and the first three buttons of his shirt were open. "I saw you dancing with Montgomery all night. I thought you would miss our date"

"There is nothing serious going on with Vance."

"I was hoping for that answer. He is not good for you."

"Why don't we stop talking about Montgomery and start talking about Horcruxes?"

"A Horcrux is an object in which a wizard or witch has hidden a fragment of his or her soul in order to become immortal."

"And how does one split his soul?"

"I think you already know the answer, Freyja"

"Murder" she muttered underneath her breath

"Exactly"

"Your father... He was your first Horcruxes, wasn't he?"

"Yes. And it is my diary"

"How many have you made?"

"two"

"TWO!? That is too much, Tom"

"I am planning on making seven" Tom said in a casual tone, which made Freyja extremely furius.

"WHAT?''

"Why are you shocked? The only way to reach the top is to play dirty. You know that"

"It is all coming together, now. The death eaters, the snake defeating death, the horcruxes... Oh, honey... You are not just a kid with dreams... You are evil..."

"Welcome to reality. Don't act like you hate it."

"What are your horcruxes?"

"Well, my father..."

"Not the people, the objects."

"Oh, my diary and Slytherins locket."

"Oh, Tom..."

Neither talked for a while. "I forgot to metion... Bella became a death eater"

"How do you forget to metion such things?!"

"Well, I was busy..."

"At least now you can be your true self"

"darling, no one has seen my true self. Ecxept you, of course"

"Of course..."

Few days later...

The time is three in the morning and Freyja is wondering around the castle alone.

"Freyja!"

She turned around and saw the only person she didn't want to see. "Brea... What are you doing here?"

"I was going to ask the same question"

"It is none of your business."

"Exactly" The girls stayed silent, a few inched apart. Both having a fake, psychotic smile.

"Are you still having nightmares? Poor Freyja... Daddy's gone but you can't get over it" Freyja pinned Brea to the wall, holding her arms above her head "Get my dad's name out of your mouth"

"Or what? What are you going to do? Kill me? Like you did with Evelyn?"

Freyja applied more pressure in her arms.

"Michael would be ashamed of you"

"Michael's dead"

"He is what?" Brea's playful expression was replaced by a shocked one.

"I remember me, you, Michael and Lora all playing together. Innocent smiles on our faces. We were only little kids. Who would know what the future would hold... Now half of our friend group is dead and the other half are murderers."

"I never killed anyone"

"I never said you did. But covering and helping a murder is a crime. Don't sweat it, love. We both deserve a cell in Azkaban."

Brea tried to avoid direct eye contact with Freyja, but every time she was looking away, Freyja was making her turn her head.

"Dear Brea. I am going to say it once, so listen carefully. No one will learn what me, you and Michael did last summer. No one will learn about Lora and Lola, and no one will learn about our little conversation. Or else, there would be consequences. Did I made it clear?"

Brea tried turning her head away, but Freyja's strong grip held her chin in place. "Crystal clear"

"Perfect. Don't forget who I am, darling. I know your darkest secrets. I know things about yourself that you don't even know. Don't try to play dirty on me, it wont benefit you"

Freyja let Brea free and she quickly run away from Freyja.
