I don't own Harry Potter (this includes books, movies, etc.)

After gaining a second ingredient for my potion, I found that the rest of the ingredients were rather common to find in the Wizard World. It took me several weeks or so to find them but I managed to have all the things I need to make the Looking Glass potion as Professor Snape said it was named.

It was interesting to think that this potion has most likely have never been used since the 1500s. I snuck into the Chamber during the night, which I was getting pretty good at, and brought with me a cauldron and several bottles and tools to make the potion.

The diary and the serpent watched as I crafted the potion carefully and making sure to follow every step with expert precision. The last couple of months working as Snape's assistant had taught me how to prepare ingredients properly.

It took about an hour and half until a small bottle of clear fluid was in my hand. It shimmered in the light.

"Well done Harry. The potion is finally complete. Now all we have to do is put a few drops in the Headmaster's and his spies' drinks."

I nodded after reading Tom's words. It should be easy, all I had to do was give a few drops in an eye dropper to the house elves that are helping me and have them put the potion in their pumpkin juice.

I said good night to Tom and the serpent and left the chamber to sleep until morning. Then I could put my plan into action.

The next morning was interesting indeed, the potion was deposited in the drinks as I asked and I watched with fascination yet I was also fearful that they would now something was up. Especially the headmaster.

Hermione and Ron drank their pumpkin juice and they seemed pretty oblivious.

So far so good.

The headmaster took a huge gulp of his drink and also seemed ignorant of anything strange.

Good, the potion is set. According to the instructions, I have to wait about an hour for the potion to take affect and then I have to drink the rest of the potion in the bottle for me to see into their minds and see what they see through their eyes, so to speak.

I spent the time talking to my friends during breakfast and then walking to class feeling a little giddy.

An hour passed by slowly and I drank the potion in an empty bathroom after asking to be excused to go to the bathroom.

Slowly I felt clouds form in my mind as I saw through the headmaster's eyes.

Inside his mind I saw he was in his office, writing down various notes and papers. He was sending a letter to a Mr. Franklin. He was a keeper of an orphanage in London. He was writing that he was interesting in speaking to him personally to have me after "taking care of my relatives".

Taking care of…could he be trying to hurt my family.

I panicked; he could have killed them by tonight!

I had to contact them immediately, but Dumbledore could be tracking my letters for all I know. As I gazed into the headmaster's mind some more. I was relieved to find that he doesn't plan to hurt them so quickly, he needed to do careful planning first.

I stepped out of his mind's eyes and quickly went into the chamber to talk to Tom.

"I can teach you a spell to inform your family of the danger. It's a discreet message sending spell. Tell them to go into hiding and say hidden until Dumbledore decides to change his plan."

I quickly learned the spell in under a half hour and sent my relatives a message. I hope they can stay out of danger.

Inside the minds of Hermione and Ron I saw them talking about how to get closer to me and Dumbledore's plans to get me under their wing.

I refuse to be someone's pawn. I'm a human being, not a tool.

I'm worried that it may become too dangerous to stay at this school. Who knows who else Dumbledore has working for them…what of my friends.

Could anyone be truly trusted?

It was then I decided to put the looking glass potion in their pumpkin juice as well.

What I saw shocked me.
