Marionette

Myrtle died to fund Tom Riddle's first Horcrux, but what were the two thinking when this event took place so long ago, in the girls lavatories on the first floor? She had fallen like a marionette, and Riddle had stood in the shadows, laughing and waiting, with his childhood diary. Her death was for a good cause.
