Draco's P.O.V

We walked back to the dungeons and sure enough there my two grotesque body guards sat stuffing their faces. Blaise and I blew past them and sat on the sofa away from ear shot and began to discuss our plan. Blaise began by saying, "How are we going to get those two on board they hate us?" A smirk adorned my face as I said, "Have you ever head the saying the enemy of my enemy is my friend?" He nodded and waited for me to continue, "It's simple Potter and Weasel will be eager to help us because that thing hurt one of their friends" Blaise nodded and said, "You know an invisibility charm in case we need it right?" I scoffed and said, "What kind of armature do you think I am of course I know one now lets go!"

We went to walk out the door but sure enough heavy footfalls resounded behind us and here we go. We turned on our heel and sure enough the bumbling duo was moving to follow us. My tone was calm as I said, "Crabbe, Goyle why don't you take the night off Blaise and I will be fine on our own." Goyle shook his head and said, "Sorry your father gave us orders." It was clear there was no reasoning with them well time for plan B which honestly should have been plan A. My tone was relaxed as I said, "Alright I'm sure we can have a stunning night here in the common room"

I lifted an eyebrow at Blaise and he quickly picked up what I was putting down.The idiots turned their backs and Blaise and I waved our wand and said Stupefy at the exact same moment and the double dumb fell over stunned. Blaise took a breath and said, "I'm so glad we were on the same page it would have made me feel really dumb if you hadn't stunned Goyle" My tone was sarcastic as I said, "I don't think you could look any dumber than you already do now help me chuck them in the closet"

I saw Blaise roll his eyes as he began to help me lift the massive amount of dead weight. We finally managed to stuff them in the broom closet and I pulled my wand and obliviated their memory of the event, for them to tell on us was the last thing we needed. Blaise put the finishing touch on by summoning a sign that said,"Im with stupid" He the levitated it so that it hung around Crabbe's neck. I closed the door and Blaise began to speak in a serious tone and said, "We should probably feel bad because we just stunned two of our housemates" My tone was cold as I said, "I regret nothing" He then shrugged and said, "Oddly I don't regret it either, I guess we should get going".

We walked too the library where the golden duo was spotted and swaggered in, my eyes caught sight of the weasel's horrible hair almost immediately. The two of them looked up when we approached and Potter stood and looked poised for a fight while the weasel just looked out of it. Potter spoke in a fierce tone and said, "What do you want Malfoy?" My tone was solid as I said,"We need your help" He smirked and said, "Well that's good now if you came here just to insul-- Wait did you just say you need help?" A sigh escaped my lips as I said, "Trust me Potter it's not my first option but it is the best. We have both lost something important and that bloody baskalisk needs to die before anyone else gets hurt or killed."

Potter just looked on gob smacked as did his red haired partner. Blaise sighed and said, "Cut it with the dramatics this is a serious situation and every minute wasted means another student could wind up in the medical wing or worse" The Weasel finally spoke up and said, "Why do you care, all the victims are muggle born. You should be happier than a bloody lark." I tensed up and said, "Things change Weasel, Astoria is a muggle born, but neither of you can tell anyone."

They both nodded and Potter said, "So your serious about helping us?" Blaise crossed his arms and said, "Just tell us what you need and we can probably get it" Potter sat up straight and began to explain, "Alright here is what we know its a basilisk most likely under the control of someone powerful at first we suspected you Malfoy but since your girlfriend got attacked we know its not you or Zabini. I replied back, She's not my girlfriend she's just a friend." Potter cleared his throat and said,"Moaning Myrtle died in the girls bathroom, she said she was crying and heard a noise and when she opened the door she died. We believe the Chamber of Secrets is in the girls bathroom. We need a special potion to get in and the only way to make it is to swipe ingredients from Snape and actually brew the potion without blowing the school sky high"

I smirked and said, "Just leave this part to us, I need a list of ingredients and a cauldron to brew it in after all potions is my best subject. We will meet you in the girls bathroom lets go Blaise and with that we were off.

We arrived at the potions lab and Blaise said, "So what's the plan?" My tone was sure as I said, "Distract him, I'm going to use an invisibility charm and sneak around him he should still be disoriented after that concussion. Then after I sneak around him grab the ingredients and cauldron I'm then going to whack him over the head with it from behind." Blaise looked at me curiously and said, "So your big plan is to give him another concussion?" I nodded and said, "That's about the sum of it"

A grin grew across his face and he said, "That's bloody brilliant. Looks like I'm up." Blaise walked away and I cast the necessary invisibility charm and silencing charm. It was easy to maneuver past my potions professor. I grabbed a cauldron and slipped over to the ingredient cabinet and pulled the necessary ones off the shelf and stuck them in the vessel. I grabbed a fifth year positions book considering that's what level this potion was and slipped behind Professor Snape, I muttered a sorry and you'll thank me later under my breath and then cast a joint weakening charm that made him fall to his knees and before he could figure out what happened I brought the cauldron down on his head and he fell over then I obliviated his memory of talking to Blaise.

Blaise smiled at me and said, "That was bloody brilliant mate he never even knew what hit him" My tone was smug as I said, "When am I not brilliant, mate" Blaise scratched his head and said, "When you blush over Astoria you lose some of your brilliance." My eye twitched and I said, "I will bonk you with the cauldron if you don't shut up" He simply shrugged and we walked to the bathroom unawares that someone was following us.
