"So those were his first horcruxes!" exclaimed Harry.
"The ring should be the one that Professor Dumbledore found and got cursed by, which means that if I keep watching these memories, I should be able to find out what the other horcruxes are and where they are hidden!" remarked Harry with unchecked excitement.
The scene faded and another one soon took its place. It showed an adult Riddle, fresh out of Hogwarts. He immediately approached the headmaster, Armando Dippet asking to join Hogwarts to teach Defence against the Dark Arts but was turned down by Dippet, saying he was too young. He did, however, ask Riddle to get some experience and apply in a few years.
Disappointed, Riddle made his way out of Hogwarts but on the way, he say the ghost of Ravenclaw house, Helena Ravenclaw and managed to charm her into revealing where the Diadem of Ravenclaw was hidden.
Finding that information out, Riddle quickly made his way to a forest in Albania, searched and found the Diadem in the hollow of a tree. Afterwards, using the death of an Albanian peasant he had murdered, he converted the Diadem into another Horcrux.
Upon his return to Britain, he quickly took up a job as a buying assistant at Borgin and Burkes, much to the disappointment of many at the Ministry.
The scene once again started to fade.
"That makes three horcruxes so far. Dumbledore already guessed that the snake, Nagini is actually another one of his horcruxes so unless the memories say otherwise, that makes four. That just leaves the locket of Slytherin and something of Hufflepuff" thought Harry.
When Harry returned his attention to the screen, he saw Riddle talking to an elderly woman who went by the name of Hepzibah Smith and claimed to be a descendent of Helga Hufflepuff herself.
After several visits, Riddle managed to charm her into showing him the locket of Slytherin and the Cup of Hufflepuff.
The moment she showed them to him, Harry could feel the greed and envy Riddle felt looking at them. He clearly felt that the locket was his birthright.
After that meeting, Riddle snuck back into Smith's house and added a lethal poison to her cocoa.
Once she was dead, Riddle quickly stole the cup and locket and then changed the memory of the house-elf, Hokey, to make her think that she mistakenly added the poison into the cocoa instead of sugar before making his way out of the house.
The scene then changed, showing Riddle quitting his job at Borgin and Burkes and then running off abroad.
The scenes quickly changed, showing him meeting with vampires and learning their secrets, befriending giants and trolls, torturing wizards and muggles alike and doing various experiments into the dark arts.
Eventually, 10 years passed and Riddle, now exclusively known as Voldemort, made his way back to Britain.
He made his way to Hogwarts to once again ask for the job of Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher but with Dumbledore as the headmaster, he was quickly rejected.
Though Riddle was annoyed, he didn't dare make a move against Dumbledore, as the only wizard he truly feared.
On his way out of Hogwarts, he took a detour and made his way into the Room of Requirement. He found a bust inside and placed the Diadem of Ravenclaw on it. Just as he was about to place curses to safeguard it, he heard a sound outside and decided to rush out of there.

Internally, he seemed to believe that no one would be able to get into the room anyway, him being the only one who knew how.
The scenes started changing rapidly again. It showed Voldemort making the dementors, giants, werevolves and various other creatures shunned by the wizarding community into his followers.
Years went by and Voldemort waged war against the wizarding world and slaughtered many excellent wizards and countless muggles. Soon 9 years passed after the start of the war and that was when he decided to strengthen the defences of his horcruxes.
Realising what he was about to do, Harry felt excited. The moment he had been waiting for was finally here. Sitting through all those gruesome, mind-numbingly cruel scenes and he could finally find out about the rest of the horcruxes.
Harry watched as Voldemort went to a young death eater called Regulus Arcturus Black and asked to borrow his house-elf, Kreacher.
"Wait, Kreacher? Then the man Voldemort was just talking to is Sirius' brother? Regulus Arcturus Black, huh? …wait" Harry thought about it and couldn't help but be astonished.
"R.A.B! That's him! I just need to go talk to Kreacher, then I can find out what happened to the real locket!" yelled Harry, utterly surprised at finding even something like this out.
When he turned his attention back to the screen, he saw Voldemort force Kreacher to drink the emerald potion in the basin and then just walk away from the gasping house-elf who rushed to the lake just to be attacked by inferi.
The scene dissolved and then changed to one of Voldemort talking privately to Lucius Malfoy, as the latter knelt in front of him. Voldemort gave him an explanation of the Chamber of Secrets and told him how it was made by Salazar Slytherin himself to purge Hogwarts of those 'unworthy' to learn the magical arts, namely, mudbloods.
He then proceeded to hand a diary over to Lucius and instead of informing him that a portion of his own soul was in the diary, he just told him that it was cleverly charmed and that if he smuggled it into Hogwarts, it would allow the chamber to open once again.
The scene changed after that to him having a conversation with a woman Harry was intimately familiar with. Seeing her face, Harry couldn't help but to clench his fist, almost ready to lunge at the screen and attack her.
The woman was none other than the murderer of his godfather, Bellatrix Lestrange.
He watched as Voldemort gave her the cup of Hufflepuff and told her to keep it safe to which she quickly replied that she would keep it in Gringotts, in her highly secure vault.
Though Voldemort didn't seem to think much about the security of the bank, which Bellatrix seemed to notice, so she quickly added that she would add curses of her own to secure the cup no matter what.
Seemingly satisfied, at her replies, he nodded and quickly left her, despite her attempts at seduction.
The scene faded and then displayed the figure of Snape in front of Voldemort, kneeling down, narrating how he had overheard part of the prophecy by Trelawney and how it said that the one who could vanquish the dark lord would be born at the end of the seventh month to those who had thrice defied him.
Snape had not heard the rest of the prophecy as he had been caught but that much information was enough for Voldemort to go on.
Harry couldn't believe his eyes, he had always considered Snape to be slimy but since Dumbledore seemed to have so much respect for him, he thought that he had just misunderstood Snape. But to think that the worm was the reason his parents were dead was enough to almost push him over the edge.
At that moment, Harry decided, Snape HAD to die!
The scene changed very slowly this time, seeming to have come to the end of its reel. The scene showed Voldemort talking to Peter Pettigrew, one of his father's best friends and saw the worship and excitement in the rat's face as he told Voldemort how he had been made the secret keeper for the Potters and how he could finally deliver them to the dark lord.
Though Harry already knew this was what happened, he couldn't help but feel a new surge of anger as he watched the rat sell his parents out with that much excitement.
The scene shifted to Voldemort walking into Godric's Hollow and just walked into his childhood home. His parents caught unaware, could only be killed like lambs to the slaughter as Voldemort walked leisurely through the house on his way to Harry's location.
He watched as his father tried to defend his mother and himself, despite not having a wand.
He watched his mother plead with Voldemort to spare Harry and take her instead.
He watched as Voldemort just laughed loudly at their attempts and killed them one by one with a killing curse.
He finally watched as Voldemort approached Harry, looking into his clueless face. He watched as Voldemort raised his wand, pointed it right at Harry's temple.
A flash of green light…then darkness.
