Remus was slightly bumped that the shrieking shack was out of the question. However, the Room of Requirements was a brilliant idea. Everything about the room was perfect for what they were about to do. He got out a pen and a piece of parchment. He placed it on the coffee table and stood up.

“Let’s start training tomorrow. We’ll keep this discreet. No one should find out about this, especially the Slytherins. This army has to be united. Its best we know each other well enough and keep count. Before leaving, please sign off your name on this parchment.” Remus was exuberant and the adrenaline rush through his veins made him rattle on and on about how they all had to behave as a team.

As soon as he was done sharing his piece of mind with the army, he sat back down with his eye glued to the parchment. He then exchanged glances with a few of the members and smiled.

Lily let out a small smile in Remus’ direction when he started rambling about teamwork and unity and whatever else it was he was saying. No one seemed to be really paying him much mind. Remus had the tendency to go on about things, though, and Lily was pretty much used to it. Sometimes she thought that doing that made things easier for him because it gave him a chance to let loose- after all, most of the time, he was hardly the kind of person to take a break and relax.

Everyone’s enthusiasm toward the idea of forming a group to help protect themselves was heartening, and Lily was glad that there were even a few purebloods who had okay-ed the idea. She was surprised that they would want to get involved when they could easily avoid having to, but was happy that they had chosen to help. The more people in it the better- after all, Marlene wouldn’t be able to teach everyone to duel on her own.

She still had some questions, though, about this Room of Requirement that she had honestly heard nothing of prior to it being mentioned earlier. “Hold on,” she said, as people began coming forth to sign the sheet of parchment Remus was holding out. “Where exactly is this Room?”

Molly spoke up again this time, still remaining in her seat as those around her stood up to sign the parchment. “It’s on the seventh floor opposite that tapestry of Barnabas the Barmy.  You won’t see the room unless you really need it, which you do so that shouldn’t be a problem.”

“You simply have to walk past it three times while thinking about what you need and voila, it will open.”  Molly herself had found it one night when she had run out of yarn just before Christmas and had to finish her presents to her friends.  

“Fascinating, isn’t it? The Room of Requirements. It really is magical.” Remus let out a sigh of relief and checked the time. It was almost 4 in the morning and they had lessons tomorrow. Not to mention that he had a test! He looked at Lily for a command, since she appeared as the leader of the group.

Mary had been sitting listening the whole time. Nodding favorably with everything that was being suggested here and there. The fact that Death Eaters were starting to practice already scared her, and she thought that learning to fight back was a brilliant idea. She wasn’t exactly sure how much some of them would learn off each other, but Mary knew she would benefit at least. “I like the idea of the this Room of Requirement better then the Shrieking Shack, sorry Remus” Mary shrugged at him with a half smile. She turned her attention back to Marlene, “But I have no idea where it is?” she asked raising her eyebrows.

“It’s on the seventh floor, opposite of the moving tapestry of Barnabas the Barmy. But it’ll just open if we really need it and, well, we do need it, so it’ll surely open. We have to walk past it three times and think about what we need. As long as we’re in it nobody can get into the room. ” Marlene looked at Mary but spoke to everybody. How comes there were only a small amount of people knowing from the room? She always thought everybody knew of it, especially all the Gryffindors since it was nearest their common room.
