After reading until his teacher woke up, Tom went to the Ancient One's quarters. As he entered without knocking, Tom found her sitting in her quart yard drinking coffee.

"Good morning!" Tom calls out as he sits beside her.

"Morning..." She answers back grumpily as she sips from her mug.

The Ancient One isn't much a morning person. She needs to finish her coffee before anyone could bother her. Of course, Tom is one of the only exceptions.

"So, I had another meeting with the snake god Manasa." Tom reveals.

"Hmm, dreams again?" She asks half-heartedly.

"Yup, and we came to an agreement." The Ancient One raises an eyebrow at Tom's words.

"Huh, so you're going to become her avatar?" She asks.

"Yeah. I tried to go for champion instead, as It's petty much free power, but she wouldn't accept." Tom admits.

"Well, from my experience I know that avatars are much stronger than champions. You might even end up becoming stronger than me." She says as she gulps down more caffeine.

"Maybe, but I need your help." Tom says as a wicked smile graces the Ancient Ones tired face.

"I'd be happy to help..." Tom cuts her off.

"...for a price. Yeah, I know." He says, annoyance clear on his voice.

"Hehe, you catch on quickly." She chuckles at him. "What do you need help with?"

"I need to do a ritual to become her Avatar. I don't have all of the ingredients yet, but I have elves working on it. What I need from you is help setting up and executing the ritual. It's far more advanced than anything I've seen here or in Hogwarts." Tom explains.

"Sure, that shouldn't be too hard." She nods as she finishes her coffee. "Now, spill your secrets."

"*sigh* I'm heir to the royal house of Pendragon." Tom reveals and she doesn't look all that surprised.

"I had my suspicions about that. Le Fay was Arthur's half-sister after all." She says with a thoughtful expression.

"Well, now that the cats out of the bag, I expect to be addressed as your majesty from now on." Tom says with false haughtiness.

"Yeah right." The Ancient One scoffs at his behavior.

"I guess some commoners will never know their place~" Tom says as he turns his nose up at her in a perfect pureblood manner.

"Alright, enough. It's too early to play around." She grumbles as she waves her hand and her mug fills with coffee once again. "I'm going to need two more cups to deal with you."

"You're no fun." Tom stops messing around. "Do you want to look at the ritual now?"

"Preferably, yes." She nods.

"Hmm, alright. One second." Tom says as he enters his inner world.

Grabbing his computer with all of his memories, Tom navigates to the file with the ritual information.

Willing a printer into the world, Tom connects it to the computer and prints up everything.

After a few minutes of waiting, Tom opens his eyes and looks at the Ancient One, who has already finished her second cup.

"Look at my eyes. I'm going to hand off the info through legilimency." Tom says and she does as he says.

As their eyes meet, Tom makes a connection through their minds and hands off the papers.

After getting the ritual papers, the Ancient One closed her eyes and studied the ritual closely.

Time passed and half an hour has gone by. Tom has been waiting patiently for her to finish.

"If she's taking this much time with it, then the ritual must be more complicated than I thought." Tom mutter as he started to get hungry.

Leaving her there, Tom left to see Druella. They went out to get some food. Tom brought her to get some muggle food in America. They had pizza in New York City.

—————————————————————————————

Like that the summer came to an end.

The Ancient One figured out the ritual without too much of a problem. The only thing they need to wait for now is the ingredients to be gathered.

The Elves have been hard at work gathering all that they could, but some things on the list are hard to find. Although they haven't finished, more than half the list had been gathered already.

Tom has continued his studies and training as usual. Muggle science in his secret lair has been going smoothly. He's still taking apart and fixing the stuff from Stark though.

On the magic side of things, Tom has been focusing on wandless magic. He's become fairly good at it, as he can do all 1st and 2nd year Hogwarts spells without a wand.

Steve and Peggy have been moved into a nice home in London under Peggy's name. Peggy is still helping the war effort as she can't just quit. At least not yet.

Speaking of the war, it's coming to a close. America has already dropped nukes on Japan. Although, that didn't spark them into surrender.

'If I remember my history classes correctly, then Japan will surrender once the USSR declares war on them.' Tom thought at the time.

As Steve didn't have an identity or citizenship, Tom took care of it with some good old fashioned mind control and obliviation.

Steven G. Rogers is now Steven A. Rockwell. They decided to keep his first name the same, as to not cause confusion. With the spell blocking anyone from seeing who he is, having the same first name doesn't really matter.

Steven Rockwell is a dual citizen of Britain and The United States of America. He has all the needed legal paperwork as well.

Steve and Peggy have been enjoying the honeymoon stage of their relationship. Tom has been leaving them alone for the time being.

Speaking of relationships, Tom and Druella are good. They have barely been apart from one another all summer. She's learned many of his secrets. Everything that the Ancient One knows, Druella has learned over the summer.

As for the deathly hallows, Tom decided to bring them together after he becomes Manasa's avatar. If he does end up meeting Death, then he wants to be as strong as possible.

He was going to wait for the analysis on all the hallows to finish, but who knows how long that would take. Tom doesn't have the patience to wait a couple more years.

A few days before returning to school, Tom called a meeting for his followers. Everyone was to arrive at Rosier manor.

'It's time to start putting the followers to work.'
