▬▬ ten; the room of requirement.
⋆.。.:* ☆:**:. 


THE ONLY THING IN THE CASTLE THAT HAD CHANGED WAS THE WALL OUTSIDE THE GREAT HALL. The naked stone wall she never had paid attention to was now almost completely covered with frames and a new proclamation had just been added. 'All student organizations are henceforth disbanded. Any student in noncompliance will be expelled' it read. There was no doubt that it had to do with the secret army they had started, the army that Lauren still didn't know anything about while walking past the proclamation sings and making her way upstairs to Dumbledore's office where her luggage had arrived.

"I'll let you get settle, Lauren. No doubt your friends are still up and ready to help you," he said as she grabbed the two suitcases.

She chuckled, "It's midnight, they're sleeping. . . Well, at least Ron is."

But to her surprise, when she entered the Gryffindor common room as quietly as she possibly could, her three best friends were seated around one of the tables. The boys tiredly leaned against the palm of their hand while Hermione Granger was in her natural habit, stuck in a book.

"Aren't Prefects supposed to set a good example?" She said, bringing all the three heads up and around. She giggled as Hermione ran into her, pushing the suitcases onto the floor and holding tightly around Lauren's figure. 

"I had no idea you were coming back!" She exclaimed.

Harry and Ron joined the hug and the redhead said, "of course we're thrilled to have you here but couldn't we've gotten a heads-up?"

"You seem busy enough as it is, why are you still up?"

"We have some catching up to do," Harry said. And hours into the night they explained how it had been at Hogwarts, from the big changes to the smallest of details. Without hesitation, she accepted the invitation to the secret army they had formed, Dumbledore's Army. 

And by lunchtime the next day, Neville Longbottom dragged them along through the halls with a smile on his face. A tall wooden door appeared on the blank stone wall and they walked through it to find themselves in a room perfectly built for magic training.

"You've done it, Neville. Youfound the Room of Requirement," Hermione said, beaming.

"The what?"

"It's also known as the Come and Go Room. The Room of Requirement only appearswhen a person has real need of it," she explained. "And it's always equippedfor the seeker's needs."

"So say you really needed the toilet. . ." Ron said, making Lauren giggle.

"Charming, Ronald. But, yes,that is a general idea."

"Won't teachers be able to find us here?" Lauren asked.

Hermione shook her head, "Not as long as we bring them here."
