Hello! It's about time our four narrators meet is it not. And still sorry
Ginny will not break down and tell, and then the story would be over before
Voldie's even arrived. Oh yes! He's coming, just not yet.
Oh and by the way I do not own him or anything else for that matter they
are all from the imagination of Ms Rowling and I'm sadly unable to buy them
off her.

The Room of Requirement
After just over a month at Hogwarts Lucious had grown bored. He was bored of the company he was forced to keep to uphold family honour, he was bored of the lessons he found he could do all too easily and he found he had spare time when others were studying that he, didn't need. He was bored of being worshipped by the other slytherins, who in truth were simply scared as they had heard the rumours that Voldemort himself was living under Malfoy manor. Because of this they agreed with Lucious' every word, never stood up to him and hated those who did even when Lucious said or did things that would be otherwise unheard of for a Slytherin. The young Slytherin needed a challenge.
Lucious walked toward this corridor his father had directed him to, a place where he could get away from everything and do whatever it was that he liked. He was going to the room known to few as the room of requirement. He was about to walk up and down the corridor when he noticed there was already a door there. Finding this curious he opened the door to see two young girls sitting on beanbags chatting. They looked up as he entered.
They were both first years. The first had short dark hair that stuck up all over the place, she had light green eyes and if they had been darker and brighter, he would have swore she was a close relation to Harry Potter, even their bone structure was similar. Lucious knew her as the girl who had shouted at Snape. He could only remember her last name. Dursley.
The second girl he had not noticed before, but assumed from her smallness that she could be no older than he was. She had light brown hair, a lot longer than the other, and her hair lay flat down along her back. He thought both girls were very pretty.
'Hi!'
'Erm.... hello!'
The two girls were talking to him.
'Oh! Hi! I'm sorry I didn't realise there was anyone in here, I'll leave.'
He turned to go but just as he went to open the door it opened and a dark haired gypsy boy walked in. He was exactly the same height as Lucious. This boy, Malfoy knew. As Lucious was about to leave again the boy exclaimed, 'what is this room?'
Lucious noticed as both girls simply shrugged their shoulders. It was up to him to explain.
'This is the room of requirement. It's a magical room that is only available when you are in great need of it. Then it will furnish to meet your needs. How did you get in if you didn't know?'
He directed his question at the girls.
The Dursley girl answered, 'I just wanted a place to get away and then when I was walking past, this door appeared. Alice' Lucious noticed her nod toward the other girl. 'Was waking past at the same time and we were both so surprised to see a door appear that we came in to sit down. Just as we got talking you two walked in.'
'Anyway', Alice continued smiling at the slytherin, 'what was it you needed so much?'
Lucious noticed all three students with keen looks on their faces. Should he tell them the truth?
'I... erm... I just needed to get away from the slytherins. I get sick of them following me around.'
He looked at the boy from griffindor, expecting some witty comment to come from him. After all he was friends with the Weasleys; he was bound to hate him. But the boy just smiled.
'Can we sit down?' he asked the girls.
'Sure' they both replied at once. They turned and grinned, identical grins at each other. Lucious couldn't help thinking it was sort of freaky the way it happened.
The four introduced themselves and were amazed to find, coming from different houses they had so much in common. They already knew that the others were all very bright students, and of course that everyone of them flew well.
However, what Lucious hadn't realised was that they had all been made seeker for their respective teams. He of course, had been bought onto the team; nobody knew how well he could truly fly. His father had insisted, despite his protests that he would buy the entire slytherin team Firebolt 3 broomsticks. It annoyed Lucious, as he felt sure he could have been on the team anyway. Unlike his father, he was actually a good seeker; he supposed it was because of his smaller build. Max of course had been made seeker almost immediately after their first flying lesson, and this had been the talk of the school for days. Even though first years were now allowed their own brooms, it was still quite rare that they would make the team. Lucious however, hadn't known about Alice and Katie. When he learnt Alice was a Wood he wasn't surprised, her father had been a pretty good quidditch player. But he found something strange about Katie on the team. He knew now however, that she was in fact distantly related to Potter, something that had come out in one of the classes he supposed he'd fallen asleep in, so maybe that had something to do with it.
After a few hours Lucious found himself feeling quite close to the other three. Closer than he had ever felt with either Crabbe or Goyle. It was strange but he was able to trust them and consequently, told them of his worries. He thought he'd surprised them by being nice; he was after all from slytherin. He began to tell them how he felt alone, although he kept details of his father and what the sorting hat was said to himself. In turn he found out they felt similar. Max felt the odd one out with just the two Weasleys and Alice and Katie both admitted that the company during the last hour had been the most interesting they'd had so far.
They continued to talk. They talked of their families, of their favourite lessons, the teachers, quidditch, everything they could think of. However, none of them were watching the time and before Lucious noticed it was half eleven and they were supposed to be in their towers over an hour ago.
Lucious had expected the other three to be quite worried, as being clever he had presumed they were goody-goodies, especially the Griffindor. This however was not the case. Almost immediately Alice muttered something under her breath and placed the invisible charm of them all. Lucious was shocked, as suddenly he was unable to see the three other people in the room with him. He could tell by the short gasps coming from Max and Katie that they were equally surprised. Alice opened the door and was about to say goodnight when Katie grabbed the air and stopped her.
'What's the hurry? Why go back already, no one can see us thanks to your handiwork.' Lucious could tell that if they weren't invisible they would all be grinning wildly just like him. At that they all joined hands and began to walk around the school, talking to ghosts and portraits as they went.
The first night alone they learnt so many things about the castle. With the help of a suit of armour they found the kitchens, they learnt that several of the portraits hid secret passageways and a keen house elf even told them the password to the prefects bathroom, where they spent an hour swimming through the bubbles and playing games. However, it was their wet clothes that attracted the attention of Filch as they crept through the castle and they were forced to make a run for it in separate directions back to their own common rooms. Lucious had almost slipped as he ran through into the common room.
As Lucious lay in bed that night he knew he didn't have to worry. He knew the others would have got back easily enough, even if he did hear Max mutter the leg-binding spell as he ran round the corner. Compared to his usual crowd, Alice, Katie and Max were so different. They were not only clever but it wasn't really know-it-all type of clever. They used their intelligence to come out with some quit witty humour and he suspected that, like him, they had not needed to read thousands of books to know what they knew. It just came naturally.
