Chapter 1-  Exploring

"NEVER GO IN SEARCH OF LOVE, GO IN SEARCH OF LIFE, AND LIFE WILL FIND YOU THE LOVE YOU SEEK." -Atticus

GROWING UP, ONYX was known around Hogwarts by nearly all the students though whether the said bad or good things about her depended on whether they witnessed... The Incident.

One day, Onyx was walking through the first-floor corridor, but she was in a hurry and in her haste the white-haired bullet walked into a lean fifth year with a shining silver and green badge pinned on his immaculate Slytherin robes. Quickly the purple-eyed girl took in his features. Angular bone structure, grey eyes, and gelled back platinum blonde hair. The second an ugly scowl came to his face her lip curled in hate. She did not like this guy at all.

"Watch your step Frostbite!" He sneered at the tiny girl. She bowed her head in fake apology rage coursing through her at the nickname she had heard all too many times and said quietly, "I don't want any trouble...." Quickly she took a peek at the name carved on what was apparently his prefect badge.

She immediately decided she would have to have a conversation with Uncle Albus about that decision. It read Malfoy.

"Malfoy." She drawled.

Onyx then made her way past him making sure to stomp hard on his toes as she went by. After a couple seconds, she then heard the satisfactory sound of Malfoy grunting in pain and she smirked in satisfaction as she continued on her way.

Needless to say, she made herself an enemy that day.

Every morning consisted of exploration of the grounds, the passageways, the library, the Forbidden Forest, and the avoiding of Malfoy and his cronies, though the tiny girl had different Muggle Activities every afternoon because Uncle Albus thought it would be good for her and she found some of them a load fun.

Quickly Onyx made a decision. She had never explored the seventh floor, so she would do so today. Since the white-haired girl was standing at the Great Hall entrance she quickly made her way to the winding spiral staircase caked with dust doing cartwheels up them and when they began to switch she continued knowing they would take her where she needed to go. When she reached the last few steps Onyx put her hands down on one of them and kicked her legs up and over her head. As soon as her feet touched the ground she contracted her lower back muscles and stood up at the top of the stairs smiling.

Quickly Onyx began looking in each of the rooms checking every nook and cranny and when she reached the end of the line of rooms she doubled back. She repeated this twice and just as she passed one of the statues a rumble that seemed like it came from a sleeping dragon started,

Onyx whirled around half expecting a dragon to become visible, but instead, she lost her balance and crashed into the black iron door that appeared as if by magic. Tentatively she put her hand on the shiny steel door knob trying not to recoil at the coldness of it. Then the white-haired girl turned it to right and the door slid open with not one creak and she stepped through closing the door behind her. When Onyx turned back around she was in a completely white room. She looked around, but apparently, all it was was a box-shaped room that was completely white.

What the heck was this place Onyx thought as she whirled around. Suddenly, a piece of paper conjured itself about three feet above her head, so she jumped up and snatched it out of the air. Quickly, she began to read the note that said...

This is the Room of Requirement. Anything you ask for, it can give as long as you think the right thing. The only things that cannot be directly provided is food, other people, and animals. To get in all you have to do is walk past this stretch of wall three times thinking of what you need and the door will appear.

Onyx smirked slightly as an unnoticed drop of blood from her cracked nose fell onto what was once pristine parchment. This information would come to be very useful. Very useful indeed.
