More Muggle Murders

Late last night, the Dark Mark was found above a muggle house, on Magnolia Street.

Details of the event are still hazy, but we do know that a muggle man and his wife were killed there.

"They are not your parents, Ms. Granger they are your next door neighbors, the Pitts. However, they were not the Death Eater's targets. "Your parents were their targets," "Now, they will need protection," said Dumbledore. "You, Ms. Granger will need to be there secret keeper,"
