Oh, a little HG Wells meets the Twilight Zone. Karmic justice for Old Tom Riddle. Nicely done!

When I was midway through this I wondered why someone had written about Voldemort surviving, it wasn't until I got a few paragraphs further down that I realized the perfect irony of the situation. He finally had immortality and was ruler of the world, but it was a dying world that all human kind had left long before. Earth had become just like Mars and the scorpion whose body he inhabited would soon starve to death. When that happened, would 'He Who I Find Most Tedious & Tiresome' become a piece of cosmic dust to wander in space for eternity? This is a very thought provoking piece.

Most inventive! And a fitting end for "the most powerful wizard in the world." Thanks for writing!

Ah, poetic justice! The price of immortality is nothing less than everything that makes life worth living.An interesting and unique ending.  Thanks.

So cleverly poetic. That is true immortality! Excellent!

A very fitting end for such a cruel and heartless beast.  I loved it.   Thank you.

I am thrilled to be the first to review this original and wonderful tale!  A horcrux made unknowingly protected him 'till there was no one left to conquer, nothing to rule.  Brilliant!  great poetic justice

Well, he's finally Supreme Ruler of the Planet...as a scorpion.
