Sorry it took so long to update, been busy and trying to come up with ideas for other stories.
Enjoy
I took out the test tube of unicorn blood from my pocket and looked at it for a moment when I returned to the Chamber the next day. The blood was blue and shiny, strange for an animal even if it was a magical creature. The Basilisk, work from its slumber and slithered over to me and I felt its large body on my back. Its head leaned over a bit as it looked at the blood with the same curiosity that I had.
"Unicorn blood has a lovely color, no?"
I nodded, "Indeed, I'm grateful that I was able to obtain it so swiftly and didn't have to harm any unicorns, this blood came from a dead one."
The serpent looked at me with a strange expression, "Dead you say, hmm…a new predator of sorts has come to the forest. I wonder who or what is killing the animals?"
I nodded in agreement and picked up the diary and starting writing to Tom.
"Tom, I got the blood of unicorn, what's the next ingredient?"
"The next ingredient needed is the feather of a phoenix. That will be even more challenging since few are around anymore."
I thought for a moment on how to find when one, when it hit me. The headmaster owned a phoenix…but it was in his office. How will he get in there?
"I know the headmaster has one, but the office is password protected. How can I get in?"
"You'll have to get in their when he is not around, perhaps if he is on business or something. From there you'll have to learn his password and get a feather as quickly as possible. Hmm…maybe you can listen in on him and find out his password around the time he leaves, I know he changes it all the time. Also, a phoenix sleeps a lot so you have to be as quiet as possible in order to get a feather, if you wake it will surely tell the headmaster about what happened."
With a sigh, I leaned back on the snake's large body to think for a moment. Sure finding out the password would be a small task, but how to get the headmaster out of the school long enough for me to get in?
"I'll need to do some planning and investigating of I want to get a feather from the headmaster's pet."
After several minutes of pondering, Tom starting writing in the journal, "Do you know what House Elves are Harry?"
"No."
"Some of them work in the kitchen in the school. If you could gain their trust, they can get you the headmaster's password by spying on him."
"Sounds good, but what about not getting caught while getting a feather."
"Well there are invisibility spells, but there are extremely advanced spells and one fowl up could end you up in the hospital ward."
I cringed, "Well that idea is out…I have to dig into some more books at the library. I have to go, it's almost curfew."
I put the book back in its usual spot and bided the large serpent goodnight.

A few weeks passed and all was quiet around Hogwarts, me and his friends attended classes as usual. However, as my friendships grew, so did my suspicions around the Headmaster. I managed to avoid Ron and Hermoine well enough to not be bothered by them.
As for my plans to obtain the next ingredient, I had yet to find a suitable spell or potion to help me get into the headmaster's house unseen.
However, I made some progress in spying on the Headmaster by having one of the house elves send me word back on what passwords he uses in his tower.
He uses a lot of passwords for common sweets in both the magical kinds and muggle kinds. From chocolate bars to lollypops and everything in between. I was able to make a chart on when the passwords are changed and what they were.
According to the chart, the password changes daily, once midnight hits the password is changed. I realized that the headmaster must have some pattern to how he changes them. It could be what type of candy or something with the word of each candy.
So far my chart was like this:
Lighter than Air Cream Puff swirls
Apple nut crunch bars
Chocolate vampire bars
Berry and cream taffy
Upside down funnel cakes
And finally Strawberry and chocolate frogs.
It was then it hit me, every other day the candy was fruit related. So on those days I could narrow down the list considerably. That was my first start but know I need to find any other patterns to see what fruit candies he would use and so on and so forth.
I sighed as I glanced at the chart for the millionth time in the chamber. I needed more information on the headmaster.

One day, two days before charismas, I was sitting in the great hall with Draco. Everyone else had already gone home for Christmas and Draco was leaving a bit late because his parents went on vacation so he was leaving the next day. I was going to leave the next day as well.
We were talking and playing a game of wizard's chess when Ron and Hermione saw us.
"Oh no" I groaned as they came near us.
"Just ignore them" said Draco as we went back to playing.
Ron was red with rage, which was kind of funny with his hair in all, when he saw us playing.
"You shouldn't hang out with Draco, he'll turn on you without a second thought" he snarled.
I frowned, "Look I don't know why you hate my friends so much but I'd rather hang out with them then listen to you run everyone's name through the mud."
For whatever reason that sent Ron off and he attacked me but trying to punch me. I fought back by pushing him away.
Immediately, the headmaster was there to break us up.
"To my office NOW" he bellowed.
Me and Ron were dragged off, but for something felt off.
It was too convenient that the Headmaster would be right there when Ron attacked me and why would he.
Something was up.
Of course the Headmaster quietly uttered the password quietly so we couldn't hear and he made us sit in the chairs in front of his desk.
"No mind telling me what happened."
I calmed explained that I was playing chess with Draco when Ron attacked me.
"Is this true Ron?"
"Well…yes I was mad that he wouldn't hang out with me and Hermione at all."
The headmaster faced me, "Well Harry, maybe you should spend some time with Ron and Hermione. You won't have any more of this disputes I keep hearing about."
I narrowed my eyes, "But they keep telling off my friends."
"I know but if you two hang out a bit more maybe you can all be friends instead of enemies. So I want you and Ron and Hermione to spend some time at Hogsmend after the winter break during the weekend."
"I don't want to be forced to hang out with them" I said.
"Well you need to learn to get along Mr. Potter, so I will be keeping my eye out and if you don't do what you're supposed to you'll l face a detention for fighting with another student."
I knew it, I KNEW it. This was a trap to get me to see his spies more and try keeping more tabs on me. Of all the weak stunts these clowns could pull this was low.
As Ron and the Headmaster kept trying to talk to me I noticed something behind the lemon drops he keeps by his desk. It was a large bag of candy with the name Realistic Fruit twists, a fruit flavored candy I see sold in some of the stores around here.
Wait a minute…could that be how the Headmaster chooses his passwords based on what candy he buys for the day along with lemon drops. It hit me, whenever I was in the office; there was always a different kind of candy on his desk. So his password for today must be the fruit twists. With this in mind, I could enter the headmaster's office easily.
I left the office with Ron trying to talk to me, inwardly grinning ear to ear.
Now all I need is something to make me invisible.

Christmas was wonderful. I invited my friends Roger, Luna and Draco along with some of his friends who I also knew well. We had a great dinner with my relatives who welcomed my friends warmly.
My aunt and I made dinner together of a large turkey and many delectable side dishes. After dinner my friends and I exchanged gifts. IT was such a wonderful night. My friends left a bit early so they could spend time with their families as well.
In the morning on Christmas day, I had gotten presents from my aunt and uncle…and one from an anonymous source.
Inside the box was a cloak that was very light but also was simmering. When he tried it on, his cuson who was looking at his presents gasped in shock.
"Harry, your body is invisible!"
"What?"
I looked down and saw that indeed I was invisible. An invisibly cloak, whoever sent me this has my eternal thanks.
With this I could go into the Headmaster's office unseen and even spy on Ron and Hermione more, what a stroke of luck.
