Not All Muggles Are Muggles (and Salazar admits it)

Chapter IV

Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter. You know that and I know that but I still have to write the disclaimer, even though the site is called FAN fiction. I have read many fanfictions and consequently may have "borrowed" other people's ideas so if you recognise something it probably isn't mine. Finally if I am aware that I have taken somebody's idea I will put their pen name in brackets after it or acknowledge them at the end of the appropriate chapter, this is only if I know the name. If you recognize something of yours that has not been acknowledged, tell me and I will acknowledge it. I am not making any money out of this so don't sue. I don't know why I bothered to write this as no one reads these anyway…

Yeah! Five reviews, many thanks to all and virtual hugs all round, especially to athenakitty who reviewed every chapter and Gandalf Lyonn for sticking with the fic. Responses to reviews are at the end

Last time,

Harry's b'day presents, letter for Remus helps the healing process. Mark's accepted into Hogwarts.

Harry had told him that aunt Petunia would not have bought him a present, nor would she acknowledge his birthday, and asked him not to mention it to the rest of the family. However, Mark still had an excuse to go down to breakfast happily.

Sitting at the breakfast table, looking for all the world as though he had ants in his pants, waiting.

This naturally frustrated his sisters, but he could not keep his mouth shut when his mother came in and shouted, "I got accepted into Hogwarts!!!!"

Four sets of murderous eyes, and a hand roughly clamped over his mouth was not the response he had expected.

As he struggled to free himself, Claudia hissed, "Pétunia et ta famille ne savoir pas que tes sœurs sont sorciers, et je ne pense pas ils seraient contents s'ils savaient. Pour une fois, quand ton père maudit disparaître, partir à Dieu connaîtrait où, Je suis ne seul pas pour cependant long il est absent, avec seulement tu pour compagnie."

"Je voudrais aller quand même, oui?"

"J'aurais préféré tu voudrais aller à Beauxbatons où tes sœurs sont regardent tu…"

"Mais maman, comment pouvait vous faire cette à nous?"

TRANSLATION"Petunia and her family don't know about your sisters being witches, and I don't think they would be best pleased if they knew. For once, when your wretched father disappears off to God knows where, I will not be alone for however long he is away with only you for company."

"I can go though, can't I?"

"I would have preferred you to be at Beauxbatons where your sisters can keep an eye on you…"

"But mum, how could you do that to us? Please make him go to Hogwarts, Pu-lease!" END TRANSLATION

Heavy footsteps on the stairs silenced the 'conversation' and Dudley appeared, oblivious to the tension in the room, and waited for his mum to come ad cook him breakfast.

Harry arrived last and was the only one to notice that Mark's collar was not lying flat, as though… and Mark seemed upset and quieter than even his usually shy self.

 Okay, painfully short, but i wanted to get something out to prove that the last chapter was not just a on off.

good story so far! When does the family find out that Harry is well... the Harry Potter? That's going to be a fun chapter. More soon.

Hopefully soon, I'm looking forward to it as well… Harry might not even be present…

athenakitty

Petunia's happy about meeting her brother? Does Mark know that Harry's a wizard?
Harry likes exploring the house? Will Harry have a go through the vault? Will Harry get some books to read? Will Harry find out what type of job Rowan does? Will Harry get more cell phones and enchant them to work magically?

Will there be more tickling of Mark? Will Harry talk a bit more?

Answers in order: Yes, at the moment. Yes. Yes. Huh? You'll see. Possibly, I don't think it will be too important… But that's a good idea. Not telling. Hopefully. I tried. Hope these responses are all right.

Hey Fire Tempest great chapter. Keep it going.
 

Thank you! (Thanks for the email too.)

Thanks again to all of my reviewers. All new reviews are greatly appreciated, so please review.

Also, I still need a beta, anyone interested? E-mail amyhome2.plus.com with your name (or penname), e-mail, and ideally some of your own writing.

In this chapter I tried to write part in French. To make it look more how it would sound. But I'm not sure if it was worth the effort… How successful I was? If anyone can help me get it right I would be very grateful, thanks.
