40 Invisibility Cloak.

Draco stretched putting the book back inside his suitcase. The formation portkey was much more efficient than, the spell one since it didn't teleport him to another place instead bring the place to him. The idea of the formation was simple, first of all, get a door, then enchant it with the formation and do the same at the destination as well. The two-door will then connect to each other through space and make it possible for a person to move from one place to another without suffering from the side effects of the portkeys. (Similar to Doraemon's door but it only connects to a single place.)

Draco realized that the whole formation was similar to creating a Vanishing cabinet that joined two places like the one in Hogwarts. Draco was now certain that the Vanishing Cabinet in Hogwarts was enchanted with a similar formation, since Vanishing Cabinet's doesn't transfer people from one point to another instead it just makes them disappear into a space not connected to the outside but the one in Hogwarts was connected with the other Vanishing Cabinet in Borgin and Burkes.

Fortunately, most of the ingredients needed for the formation was same as the one needed for the mansion, but he still needed new materials like Ashwinder egg and Horned serpent's horn dust. (The horn turned into powder). Other than the Horned serpent's horn dust, the other material were easier to find. It turns out making a formation portkey costs more than making a luxurious mansion, but since the portkey allowed him to get in and out of Hogwarts without anyone noticing, he was willing to bear the expense. This time he didn't send his father a letter instead he sent a letter to the shop owner who sold him his ingredients directly, since he would rather pay the cost himself than bother his father and besides with his new wealth paying it wasn't that expensive.

Other than the Black family wealth itself, Draco had his own personal money he made by selling potions, which he always carried with him, in case of emergencies. Even though it wasn't much but it was still more than enough for a normal person to live by for at least 5 to 7 years normally. Draco was sure his wealth would have been much more if he didn't spend money buying things randomly, just because it looked interesting.

Draco stretched and went outside his room to find the common room empty, he was wondering what was going on when he suddenly remembered that today was the Gryffindor vs Hufflepuff match. Draco was certain that Gryffindor was going to win the match but he still went out to see it, since he was bored. As he walking towards the stadium, he saw people coming back from there and from what it looked like, the match was already over and seeing the faces of the Gryffindor student and them cheering, Draco could clearly tell that they won.

Draco sighed, as he waited for Pansy, Theodore or Daphne to come by but they never came. Draco was planning to return to the hall since it was already evening as he saw a hooded figure came swiftly down the front steps of the castle. Clearly not wanting to be seen, it walked as fast as possible toward the forbidden forest. Draco recognized that it was Snape, so he ignored it but then he saw Harry slowly gliding over his broom towards the forest following Snape. Draco who was bored was interested in what was going on, so he slowly followed them as well.

Draco finally found Snape, but he wasn't alone. Quirrell was there, too.

Draco strained to catch what they were saying.

"... d-don't know why you wanted t-t-to meet here of all p-places, Severus..." Quirrell said.

"Oh, I thought we'd keep this private," said Snape, his voice icy. "Students aren't supposed to know about the Philosopher's Stone, after all."

"Have you found out how to get past that beast of Hagrid's yet?"

"B-b-but Severus, I --" Quirrell stuttered worse than ever as if he was really afraid of Snape

"You don't want me as your enemy, Quirrell," said Snape, taking a step toward him.

"I-I don't know what you-"

"You know perfectly well what I mean." Snape said "Your little bit of hocus-pocus. I'm waiting."

"B-but I d-d-don't --"

"Very well," Snape cut in. "We'll have another little chat soon when you've had time to think things over and decided where your loyalties lie."

Draco quickly hid behind the tree as he saw Snape ending the conversation, Snape walked out of the place followed by Quirrell who looked pissed and was muttering something.

Draco sighed, 'Why is Snape still loyal to Dumbledore when he didn't even fulfill his end of the bargain, self-punishment maybe? Well at least the philosopher stone is still there and looking at their conversation, looks like Quirrell finally found a way to get over that weird Dog.'

Draco was lost in his own thoughts when suddenly a small piece of a branch fell over from the tree on his head. Draco looked up but he couldn't find anything when suddenly a wind blew over in the direction back to Hogwarts shaking the branches along the way.

"Potter." Draco murdered looking at the direction he went by. 'Looks like he got his invisibility cloak.'

Invisibility Cloak is a magical garment which renders whomever or whatever it covers unseeable. These are common items that are massed produced in the wizarding world and unlike the other Deathly Hallows, a lot of people owned them but the only thing that made this one unique was its longevity and durability. The invisibility cloak can be considered the weakest out of the Deathly Hallows or maybe even the strongest depending upon the situation and it's used. Draco had even bought an invisibility cloak made out of Demiguise hair with a lot of money before but the cloak started turning opaque within a year. The original invisibility cloak was also said to have a charm in it that prevents one from summoning them but that is not proven yet.

Draco was interested in the deathly hallows but he wasn't overly fascinated by it. He knew the elder wand was powerful but he didn't know to what extent, Resurrection stone was good at looking at dead people but other than that, he couldn't find any uses and last but not least the invisibility cloak could be pretty useful but it wasn't rare. The only part he was interested in about was the title, "Master of Death." Even though Draco was certain that it didn't mean anything special since wizards used overly exaggerated titles all the time but he still had some doubts about whether he could gain some external powers from it or not.

Since it was already getting late, Draco went back to his dorm.

"Where have you been?" Theodore asked.

"Out there looking for you guys but you were nowhere to be seen." Draco said sitting on the sofa. "Where were you guys?"

"I was out in the library with Cho." Theodore replied.

"I and Daphne were in the hall completing our assignment." Pansy said. "I heard Gryffindor won the Quidditch cup."

"Yeah! But it isn't going to affect us anyway." Draco said chilling back. "Even if they win, they are still far off from winning the house cup this year."

"Sigh! Next year, I am surely going to win," Pansy said with determination.

"Stop talking about Quidditch all the time it's annoying." said Daphne rolling her eyes, "By the way have you thought of a way to teach those Hufflepuff's some lesson."

"Soon." Draco said he wasn't in a hurry to teach them a lesson.

"How long are we going to wait?" Millicent asked gritting her teeth, "I heard them spreading weird rumors about us in the hall yesterday."

"Oh, what kind of rumor?" Theodore asked interestedly.

"That Draco is the next dark lord and we are his death eaters," Blaise replied.

"Hmph! They keep running their mouth just because we don't say anything." Pansy snorted.

"Well teaching them a lesson would come later on, but we can't keep letting rumors affect our mindset." Draco said,

"Yeah! Besides, do you really think the Hufflepuff students are the only are talking bad about us." Theodore said, "Those Hufflepuff students have something against us, so that's why they are openly spreading rumors but a lot of other people think the same way as them, they just don't speak it out loud like others."

Everyone was silent listening to Theodore because they knew he was speaking the truth.

"Sigh! It doesn't matter." Draco said lazily waving his hands. "But if I really wanted to be a dark lord would you guys still follow me?"

All of them looked shocked when they heard that even Theodore was looking at him weirdly.

"Forget what I said." Draco said standing up and walking back to his room.
