Disclaimers: I don't own Harry Potter. I do own Mark Linden.

Chapter One:

Fourteen year old Mark Linden sat in the train compartment that he had chosen. He was from America. He missed his friends and his old school Lincoln School for Wizards and Witches. It was based in Chicago, IL.

Then after this train started to move a trio came into the compartment. Mark looked over at them. They were about his age. "May we sit with you?" the rather cute British girl with dark brown bushy hair and honey colored eyes asked. Mark smiled and said, "Yes, please join me."

Then they sat in the compartment. The girl sat with a tall and gangly redheaded boy who had freckles. The other boy sat next to Mark. Mark looked at him. He had black hair that looked like a mop top. He had green eyes and a lighting bolt scar on his forehead.

"And you are?" Mark asked them.

"I'm Hermione Granger. He's my boyfriend Ron Weasley and he's Harry Potter."

"Oh. It's nice to meet all of you. I'm Mark Linden. I'm an American."

"I said that he's Harry Potter." Hermione said, with a confused look on her face.

"I know I heard you the first time." Mark said.

"Don't you know who Harry Potter is?"

"Yes. He's the guy next to me."

Ron and Harry grinned at Hermione.

"He doesn't know about Harry and You Know Who." Ron said.

"I'm an American. Is there something different about Harry here?"

"Finally I found someone who doesn't know who I am." Harry said, with a smile.

So they explained about Harry being The Boy Who Lived.

"Wait a minute. This Moldy Shorts guy was like Darth Vader and the only one who ever beat him is a year old baby and there was no other survivors of the attack by these Daisy Eaters and everyone believes that a baby beat the tar out of this dude? That's nuts!"

"Who is this Darth Vader?" Ron asked.

"A fictional character that is famous in the Muggle world." Mark said.

"He's like Lord Voldemort," Harry said.

"Oh."
