Not for the first time had an argument broken out over breakfast. Vernon had been awoken by Kendra and Harry's owls again and was not very happy about it. "Third time this week! If you can't control those owls they'll have to go!" Vernon boomed to the wizard and witch angrily.

Harry tried again to explain once again to Vernon, whilst Kendra just sat and ate her breakfast quietly "they're bored. If we could just let them out at night" Harry said.

"Do I look stupid?" Vernon said egg hanging from his moustache

"Yes you do" Kendra put in, he glared at her whilst Harry tried to hide his smirk.

"I know what'll happen if those owls are let out" Vernon said with a knowing glance towards Petunia.

"Yeah they'll fly, and be owls" Kendra said. Vernon glared at her again "I just thought I'd mention it" Kendra shrugged and Harry once again fought to hide his smirk.

"I want more bacon!" Dudley demanded.

"There's more in the frying pan sweetums" Petunia cooed.

Petunia said something about Dudley's school but the twins weren't really paying that much attention. "Pass the frying pan" Dudley ordered Harry.

"You forgot the magic word" Harry said not really thinking as he said it.

"Idiot Harry" Kendra smirked knowing what was coming. Dudley gasped and fell off his chair, Petunia gave a small scream and Vernon jumped to his feet rubbing his temples. Kendra thought it was a little bit over dramatic but then again- they were the Dursley's

"WHAT HAVE WE SAID ABOUT YOU FREAKS SAYING THE M WORD UNDER MY ROOF? HOW DARE YOU THRETON DUDLEY" Vernon boomed.

Kendra stood up to defend Harry, not letting Harry take all of the heat this time "HE MEANT PLEASE, YOU OVER SIZED BABOON!" Kendra shouted in anger as Harry leapt up next to her.

"I WILL NOT TOLARATE YOUR ABNORMATILY UNDER THIS ROOF!" Vernon shouted.

"WE'RE ABNORMAL? HAVE YOU SEEN YOURSELVES, BIGGEST MUGGLES I'VE EVER LAID MY EYES ON AND I CAME FROM A MUGGLE ORPHANAGE!" Kendra shouted feeling better now that she is getting this all out.

"AND WE SHOULD HAVE LEFT YOU THERE! YOU'RE A FREAK, JUST LIKE YOUR PARENTS!" Vernon shouted at her, but he had gone too far now.

"Never insult my parents in front of me!" Kendra said so viciously that it almost came out in parstletongue.

"Or what?" Vernon challenged. The vase behind Kendra and Harry exploded, and the room started to grow dark, like something evil was around.

"Um- uncle Vernon I really wouldn't challenge her" Harry said nervously as he noticed Kendra's eyes turn blood red and things started getting dark.

"I will do as I please!" Vernon spat at Harry, Vernon obviously hadn't noticed Kendra's blood red eyes.

"YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO SPEAK TO US IN THAT WAY, I AM THE DECENDANT OF THE GREAT WIZARD SALZAR SLYTHERIN! IF YOU EVER INSULT OUR PARENTS AGAIN I WILL TORTURE YOU UNTIL YOU BEG FOR MERCY AND THEN USE THE KILLING CURSE ON YOU!" Kendra shouted not noticing it came out in parstletongue.

"Um sis, they didn't understand that. It was in parstletongue" Harry pointed out, Kendra was glad that she told Harry about them being parstlemouth's otherwise she'd be screwed right now.

Kendra calmed down slightly but her eyes were still like pools of boiling lava. "If you ever insult our parents again I will personally murder you" Kendra spat thankful this time it came out in English.

Vernon, Petunia and Dudley looked shocked at Kendra's parstletongue speaking, and Vernon nodded his head in understandment quickly. She walked angrily upstairs in to her and Harry's bedroom and slammed the door causing Hedwig and Chestnut to jump. "You know what? You need a bit of free reign" Kendra said to the birds 'alohomora' she thought inside her head looking at the locks of the cages.

They unlocked and the birds came out, they nuzzled her appreciatively "its ok" she smiled at them and they flew out the open window just as an angry Harry came in.

"What's up?" Kendra asked as she focused on her breathing to get her eyes back to normal.

"I tricked Dudley into thinking I was going to set our hedge on fire and I'm being punished by doing gardening. Where's Hedwig and Chestnut?" Harry asked as he noticed the birds weren't in their cages.

"I unlocked the cages to let them have a bit of free reign, they'll be back later. I'll come out with you" Kendra said getting up.

"You used magic? But you'll be expelled" Harry said shocked.

"No I won't, relax will you. I used speechless, wandless magic. The ministry can't trace that" Kendra stated. Harry nodded and they got up and went into the garden.

They started putting manure down on the flower beds as the sun slowly rose. "Is it true what you said about Slytherin?" Harry asked, he had clearly wanted to ask this since she had said it.

"Um- Harry I wasn't supposed to tell you. But yeah I am a very distant relative; I'm not sure about you. That's why I'm a fluent parstlemouth I inherited it from Slytherin so I've been speaking it since we were born, you got yours when Voldemort tried to kill us" Kendra admitted.

"Oh okay, but surely I'm Slytherin's relative as well, since we are twins?" Harry asked in confusion.

"It's complicated" Kendra replied. Silence fell again as they worked. After a few minutes Kendra decided to break the silence.

"Harry?" Kendra began.

"Yeah?" he asked looking up from pulling out a weed.

"Happy birthday" Kendra smiled.

"Happy birthday sis" Harry smiled back.

It got to half past seven when they finally got called in. They sat down and ate their two slices of bread and a lump of cheese each for dinner (the most they had eaten in a week), and then they got herded up stairs by Petunia. "Remember not a word! Or you'll pay" she snapped. Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon had guests coming round for dinner, it could lead to a big business deal for Vernon if it went well, so that meant hiding the 'freaks' upstairs until they left.

They got upstairs and Kendra noticed Hedwig and Chestnut were back and pruning themselves on Harry's desk "hey girls, did you have a good flight?" Kendra asked them as she went over to stroke Chestnut.

They squawked quietly. "Err Ken?" Harry began.

"Yeah?" Kendra asked as she looked at him. She looked at where Harry was pointing and there standing in-between their beds was a house elf in a rag. Kendra had seen one of these before and so she knew what it was and that it wouldn't hurt them.

"Hi" Kendra squealed excitedly.

"Shh" Harry said hitting his sister round the head lightly.

"Harry and Kendra Potter" the elf said in a squeaky voice.

"So long has Dobby wanted to meet you... such an honour it is" Dobby said bowing.

Kendra tuned out of the conversation that Harry and Dobby was talking about, she decided it wasn't very important- just another crazy fan. That was until she heard Dobby say "Harry and Kendra Potter must not return to school this year" her head snapped up at Dobby.

"Hold on, we need to go. We can't stay here" Kendra said quickly, there was no way she was going to stay here for the year.

"No there is a plot, to make terrible things happen this year" Dobby said. Harry asked if it was Voldemort but Dobby denied. Kendra knew Voldemort had another name, she had called him by it last year but she suddenly couldn't remember it. She was going to ask Dobby if it was his other name but without remembering it she doubted Dobby would confirm it.

By the time she tuned back in to the conversation Harry was chasing after Dobby, she quickly followed them into the kitchen. "Please Dobby no" Harry begged as Dobby was standing by a cake. Kendra knew this wouldn't end well.

"Harry and Kendra Potter must promise Dobby they will not go to school this year" Dobby said stubbornly.

"We can't Dobby" Kendra spoke up.

Dobby levitated the cake and it dropped on the floor going all up the walls and windows, then Dobby vanished. "This isn't good" Kendra said looking at the mess. The masons, Vernon, Dudley and Petunia came in and Petunia screeched at the mess. Harry and Kendra had the same thought- They were in big trouble.

An owl suddenly swooped in carrying a letter which made Mrs Mason run out screaming and Mr. Mason followed her out of the house. Vernon was red with anger "go on- read it" he ordered Harry. Harry gulped and read the letter out loud.

Dear Mr. and Miss Potter,

We have received intelligence that a hover charm was used at your place of residence this evening at twelve minutes past nine. As you know, underage wizards are not to perform spells outside of school, and further spell work on your part may lead to expulsion from said school (decree for the reasonable restriction of underage sorcery, 1875, paragraph c). We would also ask you to remember that any magical activity that risks notice by muggle's is a serious offence, under section 13 of the international confederation of warlocks' statue of secrecy.

Enjoy your holidays!

Yours sincerely,

Mafalda hopkirk, ministry of magic

"You didn't tell us you weren't allowed to use magic outside school" Vernon said, a gleam in his eye. "forgot to mention it... slipped your mind, I dare say" he was baring on us like a bull dog "well I've got news for you two... I'm locking you up... you're never going back to that school... never... and if you try and use magic they'll expel you" he laughed.

"You can't do that!" Kendra shouted.

"Watch me" Vernon growled.

"The ministry can't detect speechless, wandless magic and I can perform it" Kendra stated.

"you're lying" he growled not sounding so sure and pulled Kendra and Harry by their scruffs and threw us into their room before they could even blink.

He paid someone to put bars on the twins' window and put a cat flap in their door before finally putting a number of locks along the outside of their door. Their door was locked all day and the only time they were allowed to come out was once in the morning and once in the evening to use the toilet.

The cat flap opened and Petunia pushed two bowls of stone cold soup in, one had barley any in and Kendra knew that one was for her. She knew this because ever since she had arrived Vernon had hated her and had always treated her much worse than Harry, but she had no idea what she had done to make Vernon hate her so much. Harry gave half of his to Hedwig like usual whilst Kendra gave her even smaller amount all to chestnut. "Why do you do that? You'll starve" Harry asked her after swallowing a mouthful of soup. Kendra hadn't eaten since they were locked in their room just over a week ago and Harry couldn't figure out why she refuses to eat.

"Chestnut needs food too and there's not enough for both of us" Kendra shrugged as she sat down on her bed. Kendra felt that Chestnut was much more important and she honestly could not care about if she died or not, so there was no point on wasting food on her.
