July 12th 1996 
Weasley-wizenward store
"Oh hello Voldy whatever can we do for you!"
"Yeah yeah spit it out voldy! We weasleys are at your service."
Harry choked on his drink at how the twins were speaking to the dark lord. It was almost appalling considering he was a feared wizard. The dark lord in question however didn't seem to mind. 
"Good morning, where is dear Hadrian?"
Harry decided to be mean and picked up a small jelly bean, throwing it at Voldemort which hit him directly in the head.
"Don't call me dear, tommy only dracos allowed to."
Voldemort looked up in confusion before nodding.
"I see."
The twins burst into wows when he suddenly apparated to the second floor where Harry was sitting. It wasn't opening time and the two Marins and marions weren't awake yet so the store was deserted and Harry could hang around the lower floors, as well as steal candy though that was Crabbe and goyle's job.
"Can we talk in private hadrian, it's business."
"Aww come on we can't hear?"
Harry eeped and Voldemort startled when they turned to see the twins sitting on the railing, the outer part, above the first floor. 
"Wha, how-"
"Oh we built a jump platform down there."
"Jump wrong and you crash into the wood and get a concussion. Fun isn't it?"
"Uh no."
"BOOO ITTY BITTY HARRY."
"WET BLANKET!"
Harry groaned as they started to call him names and he walked off, opening one of the other doors and pushing Voldemort in.
"Don't you dare eavesdrop Fred, George."
"Fineeeeee"
"PARTY POOPER!"
Harry sighed, shutting the door and putting up a spell on it so the twins won't be able to eavesdrop anyway. He didn't trust them at all.
Voldemort had poured himself a cup of tea and sat down.
"So shall we begin our plans of murder hadrian?"
Harry rolled his eyes as he sat opposite the dark lord and conjured up a contract and a quill.
"Before that, I'll like you to read this."
Voldemort took the contract from Harry and scanned it.
"You wish to make an alliance with us? That is rather surprising, considering you adamantly refused to join me on the conquest to murder Dumbledore in cold blood."
Harry sighed, Voldemort always had a flair for exaggeration, he was still bitter that Harry outright rejected him when he proposed Voices serve the cause as his followers. 
"That wasn't joining tom, that was you asking us to be your servants."
"They are the same?"
Voldemort really was a genius with zero communication skills. Guess Harry was the best of both worlds, considering he actually had friends unlike the one in front of him.
"We object to being your followers, but we are open to an alliance."
Voldemort leaned forward, his elbows on his knees, smirking as he leant on his hand.
"So why do you want an alliance, hadrian?"
Harry smiled, tapping the quill against his thigh.
"Well it's not like we can easily beat Dumbledore by ourselves, I'm not stupid enough to think that our small group however powerful can take on Dumbledore, add in the fact that he has more information on us than we do on him, our blackmail material is concerningly short of being useful, we won't be able to take him on. As for you even if you were powerful we still know more secrets about him than you do, which would benefit you in losing less people when you clash with him. In other words it's a win win situation."
Voldemort stayed silent before nodding, humming as he read the contract again.
"These conditions can be easily met, but how would I know that you would be useful?"
Suddenly uma slithered up onto his shoulder, and thunder boomed outside, rain pattering against the window. Harry's leer made Voldemort snort, shaking his head as Uma bared her fangs at him.
"It could easily be the other way around tom, after all who was the one who defeated you when he was a baby?"
His sweet reminder was responded with a chuckle as Voldemort, sufficiently convinced, signed the alliance contract.
"Very well then hadrian, however how many members do you have now?"
"17? Give or take."
Voldemort nodded thoughtfully before standing. Harry blinked while Uma took her old place around his neck. 
"I hope you'll share your information soon hadrian."
Harry scoffed, grabbing another jellybean and throwing it at him, though this time Voldemort caught it.
"Yesyes, don't be so impatient Thomas the train."
Voldemort chuckled, popping the bean into his mouth before cringing.
"You-"
Harry smiled innocently, Uma also doing a snake smile.
"Nice isn't it, barf mucus licorice flavour."
Voldemort pointed at Harry and nodded.
"I'm going to get you for this."
"My pleasure tommy."
Harry burst out in fits of laughter once Voldemort apparated away, Uma cackling, both searing that hilarious expression in their minds.
"AHAHAHA THE DARK LORD HAD A SOUR FACE! HE LOOK LIKE A LEMON MASTER A LEMON, ORANGE!"
"TOM THE LEMON, TOMON!"
"But tomon is a nursery rhyme kid play- OHHHHH GOOD JOKE MASTER!"
They howled like hyenas, only stopping when Draco walked in and stared at them like they went mad. 
"H...pfft hi dray."
Draco blinked while Harry wiped away tears of laughter, wondering what joke was so funny. Harry, sensing his confusion, whispered the joke to him and they all started laughing again. 
Eventually the whole squad joined in on the joke and Weasley wizenward store only opened in the afternoon that day.
