Harry's parents' reaction to Harry. (Tomarry!)🇷🇺RUS/ENG🇦🇺AU IN DESCRIPTION!

AU: “A Victim by Design” Main Premise: The Price of Freedom Albus Dumbledore is not a kind old man but a brilliant and ruthless architect of fate who, from the moment Harry Potter was born, saw not a child—but a pawn in his war against Tom Riddle. His goal is not to defeat the Dark Lord in fair combat, but to lead “the Chosen One” to a voluntary sacrifice, using any means necessary. --- Beginning: The Web of Lies From his first day at Hogwarts, Harry’s life is an illusion—carefully staged by Dumbledore. Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger are not loyal friends, but handlers planted by the Headmaster himself. Their task is to become Harry’s only support, to manipulate his emotions, guide his actions, and isolate him from any influence beyond Dumbledore’s control. They play their roles flawlessly, pretending for years to be devoted companions, though deep down they despise him for his “chosen” status and the burden they’re forced to share. --- Development: A Glimpse from the Dark Everything changes when Harry meets Tom Riddle—not a monstrous villain, but a charismatic, stunningly handsome, and brilliant Slytherin prefect. Tom, in turn, sees in Harry not a threat, but a kindred spirit—a boy whose life is as manipulated as his own once was in the orphanage. He begins a subtle game, seducing Harry not with power, but with something he’s been starved of all his life: honesty and recognition of his true self. The first to uncover the truth about Ron and Hermione is Ginny Weasley. Shocked and enraged, she secretly joins Harry, becoming his inside ally within her own family. Soon, Draco Malfoy—driven by boredom, cynicism, and a strange fascination with Harry—decides to switch sides, choosing the game that promises more intrigue. --- Climax: The Fall of Masks When Dumbledore realizes he is losing control over Harry, he orders Ron and Hermione to take a desperate step—to brutally kill Hagrid’s beloved pet and frame Tom by planting one of his personal belongings. They hope the shock will forever turn Harry against Riddle. But the plan backfires. Harry, Tom, Ginny, and Draco expose the deception. For Harry, this becomes the point of no return. He publicly severs all ties with Ron and Hermione, and his cold, emotionless “I don’t need you anymore” wounds them deeper than any rage could. --- Resolution: The New Era Using the information gathered by Harry and the support of his Death Eaters, Tom Riddle executes a swift coup and seizes control of the Ministry of Magic. In the decisive moment, Harry rejects the prophecy and his role as the “hero,” standing shoulder to shoulder with Tom. Dumbledore—defeated not by power, but by his own miscalculation—loses everything. --- Epilogue: A Fragile Peace Magical Britain falls under Tom Riddle’s rule—his reign marked by cold, rigid order. Having avenged his betrayal and claimed his freedom, Harry withdraws from politics, finally living for himself. His bond with Tom is not a union of good and evil, but a complex, passionate connection between two people who found their reflection in each other. Ron and Hermione, truly remorseful, remain in exile—forever branded by their betrayal. Draco Malfoy rises to power, remaining a loyal ally in the shadows. This is not a story of good triumphing over evil. It is a story of how a pawn shattered the board, chose his own destiny—and the price one must pay for true freedom.
