[HP] If Dudley had a sister

The Goblet of Fire in Hogwarts was in full swing. As one of the contestants, Cedric secretly grabbed Hermione, who was in some ways a hostile party.He looked at this barely familiar girl, and asked nervously, "Do you know... where Deborah has gone?"

Hermione looked at him, as if thinking about whether this person is reliable, and finally said slowly: "Why should I tell you?"

"But—but she hasn't been at school for several days."

Hermione blinked, remembering that her friend was being pursued by the person in front of her, so she turned her mouth and said, "She just disappeared for a few days."

"Aren't you worried about her!" Cedric suddenly became excited, "What if she's in danger?! If—"

Hermione looked at him silently, and said, "If she's in danger, you can't help her, you even have to focus on the game."

"Whoever you like wins the game." Cedric paused, thinking of a possibility that frightened him, "Deborah... has something happened?"

"No." Hermione laughed suddenly, "She just left school for some things, and she will be back soon."

Cedric was obviously not convinced by such a reason, and he showed a more worried expression. Hermione kept trying to reassure him, until Dumbledore's name was mentioned, and Cedric smiled reassuringly.

After her private meeting with Cedric, Hermione gave a high score to Deborah's suitor. She ran into Ron just after saying goodbye to Cedric.

"That man just now—" Ron glanced at the back of Cedric who was going away, "wasn't it Digory?"

Hermione nodded, seemingly unfazed by Ron's surprise.

"That's Harry's opponent! What does he want from you!" Ron exclaimed.

"Don't make a fuss," said Hermione calmly. "He's looking for Deborah."

Ron just breathed a sigh of relief, and then immediately lifted his spirits and said, "What does he want to do again?!"

"Don't you know that Diggory likes Deborah? I thought the whole of Hogwarts knew about it," said Hermione.

"I know--"

"He came to ask me because he was worried about Deborah who wasn't here these days, so I reassured him... By the way, please support him in the future."

"You want to support him?!" Ron tensed up. "Wait, so you support Diggory and Deborah together! How can that be!"

"Why not?" Hermione looked at him suspiciously, "Why are you so nervous... Don't you dislike Deborah? Diggory is very good-looking and handsome, and the most important thing is that he really For Deborah's sake, it's not like Deborah doesn't have a good impression of him at all, as a friend, you should support him no matter what—"

"But Harry likes Deborah!"

"what?!?!"

……

The waves washed the pale yellow fine sand, and Deborah stepped on the beach one after another shallow footprints.Her delicate and white skin was slowly tanned under the sun, but I didn't care so much about it. At least in the UK, being tanned by the sun was a rare thing in some respects.

She noticed that Amy and Dennis were standing by the cave by the sea. The two of them whispered together for a long time, and then one of them approached Tom.

Deborah was silent for a while, fumbled for the wand hidden in her clothes, and approached them slowly and unobtrusively.

Tom Riddle didn't seem to care about Dennis' provocation, he raised his eyebrows, and followed him towards the cave.

Even though Dennis and Tom started chatting and laughing while standing on the stone, Deborah was still worried, and Tom looked coldly at the person who kept talking to him, and asked with a half-smile: "You What are you going to do?"

"I have nothing to do." The half-grown boy seemed to panic suddenly because of his lack of experience.

Tom snorted and was about to turn around and leave when Dennis grabbed his hand suddenly.This action enraged the young Dark Lord. He was about to punish the person who tried to offend him, but he felt a heavy push on the back, and Dennis happened to let go of his hand.

"Go to hell—" Amy, who had been hiding all the time and only rushed out now, said fiercely, his face was flushed, and he was so excited because of his actions.

Tom stood on the rock because he was pushed and his feet slipped. There was a sharp stone that could cut the flesh where he fell. This is a place specially chosen by Amy and Dennis. They hope to give Tom a Lesson - the devil in the orphanage will touch this rock as he falls, and may hurt his arm, or his eye, or his neck.

Deborah, who was hiding next to her, waved her wand after seeing this scene, and used a levitation spell: "Wingardium Leviosa——"

Amy and Dennis saw Tom levitating, showing a terrified expression, they couldn't help screaming, and then ran away quickly.

Tom's face turned pale with fear at a certain moment when he fell down. After he found himself suspended, he subconsciously looked to the side, and saw Deborah standing in that direction, the beautiful girl standing quietly There, she held the wand that made her uneasy before, and seemed to tell everyone that she was a witch, and then she saved him.

Deborah knew Tom wasn't going to die from this, no wizard would die from these simple acts of Muggle persecution, she was just reacting subconsciously that someone else would get hurt.Just like now, when she found out that Tom's snakes saw their master being hurt and prepared to attack Amy and Dennis collectively, she also waved her wand and petrified the snake that was crawling towards the two escaped boys. snakes.

"Let go of my snake," Tom said after being suspended from levitation by Deborah.

"If they've got snake venom, they'll die if they're not careful—" said Deborah. "You don't want to get in trouble."

"They wanted me dead just now!" cried Tom angrily.

Deborah looked at him in embarrassment, she suddenly wished she was Dumbledore, because this wise old man would definitely make the right choice in this situation, but she suddenly remembered that even Dumbledore , but also hesitate and hesitate when faced with difficult choices.

The girl's silence angered Tom even more. He thought that Deborah was actually supporting Amy and Dennis's ideas in his heart, so he said harshly: "You will regret it!" and pushed Deborah away and ran away. .

Deborah didn't pay attention to Tom's words. It wasn't until the children in the orphanage gathered to go back that everyone realized that Tom was missing.

Mrs. Cole and another woman leading the team became anxious and irritable. One of them led Deborah and the others back to the orphanage, and the other started shouting Tom's name nearby, looking for the left-behind boy.

Deborah didn't expect Tom to make such an irrational decision. When she stayed in the orphanage and waited, she only waited for Mrs. Cole who came back alone.

"The devil is gone at last," one of the little boys whispered to Deborah.

Soon after Mrs. Cole and another woman found that the purse they had brought with them when they led the team was missing, and some food and clothes in the orphanage were also missing, they realized that Tom had secretly returned to the orphanage once They all stole before leaving.

Many people can't understand how Tom escaped the eyes of the orphanage staff and stole things. Only Deborah knows it well, because Tom's snake and his magic, as long as he thinks, something will fly into his hands.

But Tom's behavior also made Mrs. Cole completely give up her worries about him, and her anger even surpassed other complicated emotions, because if the disappearance of a child was spread, it would cause huge damage to the reputation of the orphanage.

It rained heavily at night, and Deborah stayed quietly in the room listening to the patter of rain outside the window.

Sighing, she took out her wizard robe from the closet, cast a waterproof spell on it, and slipped out of the orphanage.

She cast a more complicated finding spell, and the magic guided her to find Tom's location. She knew that Tom was not too far away from the orphanage, because if it was too far away, she would not be able to stay in the orphanage at all, but would go to the orphanage. bound to his vicinity.Unsurprisingly, she soon saw him in an alley—with two men.

One of the brown-haired men tugged at Riddle with a knife, while the other grabbed his package and took an inventory of its contents.

When the man with the knife brought the knife close to Tom's chest, his knife fell suddenly, and then both of them began to inflate like balloons. Tom turned back coldly, and saw Deborah holding the wand again, Stand at the exit.

Deborah said softly, "Tom—"

She remembered.

Once Tom sneaked out of the orphanage. He was insulted by his parents at that time. As a child, he wanted to prove his existence eagerly, so he stole money and food and ran out to find all the places where his parents might exist. But he came back very quickly then, only he seemed even more distant and untouchable.

The next day there were news reports that two habitual robbers had died in an alley.

Of course, the Muggles couldn't detect the magical riots of the little wizards, and the people of the Ministry of Magic, because the way of death of the repeat offenders was very similar to that of the Muggles, so they didn't think about the wizards. In fact, they never thought that there would be underage children The wizard killed people because of the magic riot.

"I don't need your help." Tom looked at Deborah, and said quietly: "What I want will come to me easily, and anyone who offends me will not end well—" He was very He almost stopped talking, because he found that for the first time in a long time, this eye-catching girl looked at him with an expression that could be called "gentle" or "apologetic". He was suddenly at a loss, even a little uneasy.

"I shouldn't... think there's something wrong with your reaction to Amy and the others," Deborah said, "but I still feel that you can't kill them—though they can't kill you either."

Tom looked at her silently, and he could barely see the girl's expression clearly in the dark alley, but Tom felt that he didn't understand, just like he didn't understand why she hated him so much when they first met.

"So what are you doing here, watching me joke? Or blaming me? Stopping me?" he asked.

"I don't know why I'm here—but...let's go back together," Deborah said.
