    Summary

    Tom has never needed anyone. Why would he? He has himself, his magic, his intellect. He can defeat anything. He can defeat death. Or so he believes, right up until the night of his eighteenth birthday when he murders his family and creates his second horcrux and, somehow, finds himself dead. Then, fifty years later, he wakes up.

    Harry's having a crap time of it. Voldemort's back, Dumbledore's ignoring him, the Order won't let him in on their secrets, and according to the papers, Harry's a liar. The nightmares, the pain peppering his scar, the floods of anger - they're not helping. What he really needs is a distraction.

    Good thing Harry and Tom are on a collision course.

    (In which Ringcrux Tom is dropped into 5th year canon - part one!)
