33 C33 Time Skip End - 3rd Year

*Sorry if the last two chapters were confusing. The beginning of C31 showed a glimpse of him entering 3rd year and the rest of the last 2 chapters showed him going through the time skip to that time. This chapter will end the time skip and get to the beginning of 3rd year. Sorry if it was confusing. Also this may help some of you keep track of the time. First year 1938-1939, second year 1939-1940, third year 1940-1941, etc. once again, I apologize for the confusion.*

The summer at Kamar-Taj was spent in grueling pain for Tom. He still wasn't up to Kidos standards. Although, he has moved on from hand to hand fighting and started practicing with a sword. Kido asked Tom what type of weapon he would prefer. Tom immediately decided on the sword as he is a Pendragon, after all. He has to go with what's in his blood. Also, Tom is hoping that Excalibur is in his Pendragon vault. With proper sword training, he'll be able to wield Excalibur to a higher degree later on.

The whole of the summer was spent fighting and training for Tom. He did spend some time here and there studying in the library, but most of his spare time was spent healing from the spars Kido would put him through.

By the time summer ended, Kido told Tom that he's ready to move to the next step of his training. Although, that next step wouldn't be revealed to him until Christmas break when he returns. Kido also warned him of slacking on his training while in his other school. He made it very clear that if Tom doesn't keep up with his training, he would make training during Christmas hell for him.

On September 1st, 1940, Tom opened a portal with his sling ring to an empty alleyway near kings cross. He once again rode the train to Hogwarts with his trusted friend Druella. They sat alone in their compartment as they usually do. Suddenly, the door opens, and outside is a new first-year with round glasses, brown eyes, and black hair. He was already dressed in his robes, so the boy is most likely from a wizarding family.

"Oh, sorry. I was hoping the back was empty. I can go if you want?" The boy asks as he stands outside the door.

"No, It's fine. I'm Tom Riddle and this is my friend Druella Rosier. Come have a seat." Tom says as he and Druella stand to greet the new boy.

"Thanks, I'm Charlus Potter, but you can call me Charlie if you want." He says in return and takes a seat across from Tom and Druella.

'Hmm, this must be Harry's grandfather. Getting close to the Potters wouldn't be a bad idea, as I could get close to Harry Potter and make sure I have nothing to worry about. That is if he's even born after all I've changed. I know that I'm not going to go all dark lord and cause the need for a savior, so there should be no prophesy to slay me, but who knows what could happen in the future. I should play it safe and do my best to not start any prophesy about me. I would rather not have the main character, who could have plot armor, to come after me. Although I may be the main character now. Wow, that was trippy to think about.' Tom thought and just decided to go with the flow.

"It's nice to meet you, Charlus. Do you know which house you want to be in?" Druella asks as she joins the conversation.

"Well, I don't really mind any of the houses, but my family is predominantly sorted into Gryffindor. Although I won't know until I'm sorted, I guess. By the way, how are we sorted? My parents refused to tell me." He asks curiously.

"We can't tell you either. Think of it as a bit of an open secret. Everyone knows, but it's hidden from the children until you see it yourself. Don't worry though. It's nothing crazy and doesn't take more than a minute usually." Tom says, trying to ease the kid's mind.

After a long ride to Hogwarts once again, Charlus got to know both Tom and Druella. As they were exiting the train, Charlus went to the boats while Tom and Druella got in line for a carriage to ride.

"Hey, Mudblood. Get to the back and give me your place in line." Brighton Lestrange, pompous member of the inbred faction and member of the council called from further back in the line.

He was one of the inbreds from a more predominant family. Behind him were both Crabbe and Goyle with sneers on their faces. They are loving every moment of what's happening right now. Ever since their failed attempt to steal Toms and Druellas compartment, Crabbe and Goyle have been waiting for any moment to poke the bear.

"No, thanks." Tom replies easily and didn't even spare them a glance.

Druella followed along with Tom and ignored them. This only served to make the blood purists angry and they left their place in line. As they walked up to Tom and Druella, Tom could hear the student grow quiet. The only time these kids would shut up is if something interesting was about to happen. He turns his head to see Lestrange, Crabbe, and Goyle walking up to him.

'*sigh* This is going to be annoying, but I can definitely use this.' Tom thought as a plan forms in his mind.

"Hey, filthy muggle trash, did you hear me? Get your *ss to the back of the line now." Lestrange says as he walks up with two meatheads jeering behind him.

"And I said no. Now f*ck off." Tom replies, staring at the purebloods as if they were a fly buzzing around him.

Druella wasn't expecting Tom to reply this way and looked at him with a surprised expression. Usually, they were quiet and steered away from confrontation when it came to their house.

'Tom wouldn't act like this. What is he planning?' She thought as she knows Tom fairly well as they spent 2 school years together.

Upon hearing Toms reply, the purebloods wanted nothing more than to pull out their wands and start firing away. Although that can't happen as the entire school is currently surrounding them. They may be idiots but they're still Slytherins and will wait for the right time to strike.

"I see." Lestrange mutters with a furious red face as he walks back to his place in line.

"I see." Druella says mimicking Lestrange.

"I see." Tom mimicked him as well.

Many of the students laughed at Druella and Tom's impression, but as they were laughing Druella gave Tom a worried look. Tom just returned her a reassuring smile. That was when Druella knew that Tom was planning something. That something also had to do with their house. She couldn't help but worry about whatever was going to happen.

'Hopefully, Tom knows what he's doing.' She thought as she and Tom boarded a carriage.
