"I always knew Salazar Slytherin was a twisted loony," Ron said as he, Harry, Jack and Hermione fought their way to through the corridors to drop off their things before dinner "But I never knew he started all this Pure-Blood stuff. I wouldn't be in his house if you paid me. Honestly if the Shorting Hat tried to place me in Slytherin, I'd've got on the train straight back home."

"Oh come on Ronny," Jack said rolling his eyes "You think that just because Moldy-Wart was in that house and went bad all of the kids in there are?"

"Yes!" Ron said and went into a list of all the other families who came from Slytherin that went bad."

"One bad apple doesn't spoil the whole crop Ron," Jack said rolling his eyes, not listening. "I'm sure there have been people from these other Hogwarts houses that were just as bad as any of those people you just named. You alright Harry?" he asked as he saw the black haired boy had a far-off look as if remembering something.

"Huh? Yeah I'm fine just... Wondering what to have for dinner. That's all." he said.

Not believing him, Jack was about to say this, but was cut off when Colin Creevey turned up and said in his usual excited way:

"Hiya Harry!"

"Hello Colin," Harry said automatically.

"Harry – a boy in my class has been saying you're –"

But Colin, being the small first-year that he was, was washed away by the tide of people going in the opposite direction heading for the Great Hall.

"See you Harry!" they heard him squeak, and then he was gone.

"What's a boy in his class saying about you?" Hermione wondered.

"That he's Slytherin's heir, I expect," came Elisa's voice as she came over to see them and give Baby Tooth back to Jack. "Almost the whole school has been going on about it. That it's either him or Jack."

"But you don't believe them do you?" Jack asked giving her an innocent look.

"Well I doubt Harry is," Elisa said, shoving Jack's face away "But you have the right amount of cunning and skills to be in the suspects list."

"I thank you," Jack said bowing, making everyone roll their eyes "It's a life's work, I must admit. You know - I should really write a book on the subject. What should it be called? 'How To Be Sneaky, by Jack Frost'. Or '101 Tricks and Pranks To Pull On Your Friends, by Jack Frost'?"

"Call it what you want," Elisa said not really caring "Just don't get as big a head as Lockhart if it's a big hit, ok?"

"Do you really believe there's a Chamber of Secrets?" Ron asked Hermione, getting back to the previous conversation as the crowd thinned.

"I don't know," she said in her 'thinking voice' "Professor Dumbledore couldn't cure Mrs Norris right away, and that makes me think that whatever attacked her might not be – well - human."

As she said this they turned a corner and were back at the end of the corridor where the 'crime' had been committed, the large bright red words still spelling out the message on the wall at the end of it.

"That's where Filch has been standing guard," Ron said pointing to an empty chair that was against the wall.

"It can't hurt to poke around," Harry said setting his bag down and got on his hands and knees to look for clues.

Saying they'll keep watch, Jack and Elisa let the others deal with that.

"So, How well behaved was Baby Tooth?" Jack asked giving the fairy a mini cookie.

"Reasonable," Elisa said "She got a little upset when she woke up and you weren't around. And then she got jealous that I was paying the Bowtruckles more attention than her, even though they were what the lesson was on." she said this directing it to Baby Tooth who gave an innocent look and shrugged.

"Hey guys!" Harry called out to them, making Jack and Elisa look over to them and saw them going into a girls bathroom and waving at them to follow.

"Is it alright for us guys to go in there?" Jack asked unsure.

"Yep, no one will be in there. That's Moaning Myrtle's place." Elisa said and went in.

As they went in, Jack was sure, that this was the bathroom he went in last year when he went looking for Hermione.

And it was just as gloomy and dull as it was back then.

Putting her finger to her mouth, Hermione led the group towards the end cubicle. When she reached it she knocked lightly, pushed it open and said "Hello, Myrtle, how are you?"

Myrtle was floating on the cistern of the toilet, picking at a spot on her chin.

"This is a girl's bathroom" she said spotting Ron, Harry and Jack "They're not girls."

"No," Elisa said agreeing "But Hermione and I just wanted to show them how nice it was in here. And to ask you something."

"Oh?" Myrtle said curious.

"Yes," Elisa said calmly "We wanted to ask if you've seen anything strange lately, because a cat was attacked outside your door on Halloween."

"Did you see anyone near here that night?" Harry asked.

"I wasn't paying attention," Myrtle said sniffing a little "Peeves upset me so much I came in here to try and kill myself. But then I remembered that I'm - I'm -"

"Already dead?" Ron asked trying to be helpful and getting a punch and a glare from Jack.

Giving a tragic sob, Myrtle rose up, turned over and dived into the toilet, splashing water everywhere, coming to stop – by the sound of it – somewhere in the u-bend.

"Well done Ron" Jack said "We could have gotten a bit more info out of her, and then you went and ruined it."

"Actually she lasted longer than I thought she would," Elisa said shrugging "Let's go."

Jack thought it would be best to let the girls leave first, just in case there were any teachers or prefects about.

And judging by how long it took for them to receive an all-clear there must have been at least one.

Soon though it was alright to leave, and they all went to dinner.

o0o

That night in the common room Harry, Ron, Jack and Hermione were all working together on their Charms homework - Annie was with Ginny in their dormitory.

Mad that he couldn't understand the task given to them by Professor Flitwick, Ron slammed his book shut.

To Jack and Harry's surprise so did Hermione, only less violently.

"Who could it be though?" she asked in a thinking voice as though they had just been having a conversation. "Who would want all the Muggle-borns and Squibs out of Hogwarts?"

"Let's think," Ron said sarcastically "Who do we know who thinks all Muggle-borns are scum?"

"Well according to you, everyone who's a Pure-Blood that's not a Weasley" Jack spoke up from his spot.

"I think he was actually talking about Malfoy, Jack" Harry said quietly.

"Malfoy, the heir of Slytherin?" Hermione asked not believing it.

"Why not?" Harry asked closing his book now too "You've heard how proud he is that his whole family has been in Slytherin. They could easily be Slytherin's descendants, and passed the key down, father to son."

"I doubt it," Jack said now closing his book too "Malfoy might be a brat, but he doesn't seem the type to wanting to attack his fellow students. Plus I doubt he has the skills to do it and not gloat about it."

"How do we prove it?" Harry asked darkly.

"There might be a way," Hermione said slowly dropping her voice so no one could hear her. "Of course, it would be difficult, not to mention dangerous, and we'll be breaking about 50 school rules..."

"If you ever feel like telling us your big idea you would tell us wont you?" Jack and Ron said together.

"Alright," Hermione said coldly "What we need, is to get inside the Slytherin common room and ask Malfoy a few questions without him realizing it's us."

"And how exactly are we going to do that?" Jack asked.

"We'll just need some Polyjuice Potion" Hermione said.

"No." Jack said firmly his normally carefree spirit gone. "No. No. No. We are not doing that. That's way too dangerous for you lot of this age, especially if you get it wrong."

"Well then how else are we meant to get in there?" Hermione asked.

"We could ask Peeves," Jack said giving his suggestion "At least with him all you need is a good enough bribe to make him want to help you."

"When you say 'Dangerous' Jack..." Harry was about to ask but Ron cut him off.

"What exactly is this 'Polly' stuff." he asked.

"It transforms you into someone else." Hermione said "Think about it! We could change into Slytherins. No one would know it's us. Malfoy would probably tell us anything."

"I agree with Jack, this stuff sounds doggy to me," Ron said "What if we get stuck looking like Slytherins forever?"

"Oh Ronny, Ronny, Ronny," Jack said a little teasing in his voice "That's not even the worst thing that could happen with this potion."

"It wears off after a while" Hermione cut Jack off to try and calm Ron down. "But getting the recipe will be very hard. I remember Snape saying it was in a book called Moste Potente Potions and that's bound to be in the restricted section of the library."

"Which is why we should try my way instead," Jack said raising his "All in favor?"

No one else lifted their hand.

"Fine," he said "We'll make a bet on it. See who can get the information sooner. Looser gives to the winner... 10 Sickles."

Rolling their eyes the others agreed.

"Hard to see why anyone would want that book if you weren't trying out one of the potions in it," Ron said turning to Hermione for an explanation.

"I think," she said "That if we just made it sound like we were interested in the theory, we might stand a chance..."

"Oh come on," Ron said not believing this "No teacher will fall for that. They'd have to be really thick..."

AU: Here you go for all of those who have been wanting more of this story.

Just so you know the reason why It took so long is because I've been busy and been sick in bed with a cold.

I have no 'Update Plan' to speak of but I will try and not make the gaps between the new chapters more than 2 - 3 weeks.
