Despite of the festive spirits of those around him Severus Snape walked in a shell shocked state. He should be ecstatic, after all Lily Evans (She will NEVER be a POTTER in his mind) was saved. Yet the event that leads up to this joyous account did nothing, but left the traitor of the Dark Lord in a state of confusion.
Hopefully the man he was about to see can clear away some of the confusion. The thought made him straighten himself up as he followed the house elf to its master. His hope dropped as he looked at the disheveled state of a man sitting in front of him, but still he had to ask. í?Lucius what happened?í?
í?Severus?í? The elder Malfoy blinked as he realized he was not alone, than he registered what the man asked and his head felled into his hands. í?Ií¡ I doní»t know.í? Probably because he finally have someone he can disclosed his secrets to Lucius Malfoy started to recount his tale.

I]The Dark Lord Voldemort was just finishing telling part of his inner cycle of how after that night nothing will be able to stop him. When Lucius and Narcissa thought that it will be a great way to celebrate this, and strengthen their loyalties to the Dark Lord by offering their one year old son Draco to be marked as a Death Eater. Voldemort in a great mode after finally learning the Potterí»s whereabouts agreed to this, and the Malfoy being the first to offer such a thing was honored by not having to wear their masks as they watch this event. Just as Voldemortí»s wand touch young Dracoí»s arm an explosion erupted stunning all in the building and destroying all wards to the place. Twenty minutes later Auror arrived to find the body of the Dark Lord dead, and most of his Death Eater unconscious. The Malfoy latter awake in St. Mungo to the happy face of the Minister of Magic, telling them how their son was the savior of the magical world. And many of witches and wizards celebrate that night by toasting í?To Draco Malfoy, the boy who lived.í?[/I]
The changed prophecy:
"He comesí¡ He comesí¡ The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches ... born to those who have thrice defied him... and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not ... and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives ... the one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will arrive..."
Defied how? Defied when?
How about before he even come into power. The Malfoy unsure of the wizard claiming to be a new Dark Lord struggled with him as he begins to seize power. They later redeemed themselves with Voldemort, but still they had defied him.
Now obviously the Malfoy will lose lot of influences with the Dark families because of this. But at the same time they gain a lot more influence with the Light families and even some of the Neutral ones. In fact so much so that by the end of Dracoí»s first year at Hogwarts that Lucius was having troubled wanting his old life back. Sure he has to be civil to the blood traitors, keep his opinions of mudbloods and muggles to himself. But he is gaining more influence and monies throughout the world, in fact there were talks about electing HIM as the next Minister of Magic.
