• An original ship - Tom Riddle x Number Five
• An umbrella academy and Harry Potter crossover.

'Don't you have a real name?'
'I do. It's five.'
Tom's eyebrows furrowed.
'It's just another riddle, Tom. Figure it out like you always do.'
In which...
"Sure thing, also - what's a young man like you doing here? Sneak in, if you did then that's impressive." The barman asked curiously, grabbing a clean glass.
"I simply pulled a few strings here and there." It wasn't a lie, whenever he spacial jumped he was pulling the strings of space manipulation.
"Ah, I see - well, here you go. Enjoy, what's your name young man?" The steel eyed boy looked up at the barman and for the first time, actually looked at him.
He was peach haired and look rather young, possibly in his early twenties - and looked korean, like a person from BTS or whatever it was called. All he really remembered was Klaus raving about them for a while and the photos he was shown.
"Five."
"Hargreeves, I assume? Yes, I do know a bit about you. I'm...Lucas. How's your family going young man?"
"What is this, twenty questions?" He stood up and grasped the collar of Lucas annoyedly. "And if you call me young man onemore time, I'll put your head through that damned wall."
"Feisty. Okay, okay - I get the message."
Five let go, chugged the rest of his margarita - and blinked out of the bar, unbeknownst of the condescending smirk that Lucas held.

Five was relieved when he woke up the next morning to find that the green tinge was gone, and that the constant prickles that was running along his skin the other night had fully ceased.
He sighed and brushed his teeth, promptly pulling on his uniform and opting to leave the dorms earlier than usual - Marcus and Cicero still fast asleep like they had been knocked out by the whomping willow.
The common room was empty and near silent, as it usually was during this time of the morning - the dying embers within the hearth crackling softly, a soft amber that calmed him. Although a sense of terror washed over him like a wave, that calmness, this silence, it was all so foreboding for some odd reason.
Like the calm before the storm, Five just couldn't help but to worry about what this year may bring upon him and the school.
He couldn't help but to wonder when this peace will break.

In case you haven't checked already, I have turned part 12 : 56 into an actual chapter :)
I'm so sorry for not updating!! Ack this chapters all over the place as well, but I'm trying 😭
Also, I was asked by someone what my though process was when it comes to writing ; and the photo below is like a paper version of it, most of it just goes through my mind.
But it's a lot of writing, rewriting, rephrasing, and adding ideas.
I hope you all stay safe and healthy!! (I also apologise for my messy writing XD I am not a neat writer whatsoever - so feel free to criticise how bad it is :)
Also, 69th in crossover ; oop-
