Argus opened the front door and went inside the house. He could hear posh laughter coming from the living room as well of the clinking of expensive glass and the murmurs of light conversation. He decided to go upstairs first to get changed as mum would kill him for wearing jeans to one of her parties. After slowly changing into his evening suit that his mum had bought him for such occasions, he trooped miserably down the stairs and into the living room. He barely listened to the snippets of conversation he heard, he just focused on trying not to lose the will to live.

"So, Mr Gaunt, I see you've brought you're...erm... charming son, but where is your darling daughter, she was such a dear!"he heard his mum say as he passed her.

"That ungrateful squib ran off with some muggle across the way! We have disowned her in the deepest shame!"

"Filthy squib, I never liked her! I always knew she'd turn out to be a badden, that Merope Gaunt!"

The Gaunts had always creeped Argus out more than a little, but he'd been told that under no circumstances must he be rude to them, as they were the last remaining heirs of Salazar Slytherin himself! Although, Merope had been pleasant to Argus. He remembered that she had always talked to him about normal things and even said that she didn't believe in all of the muggle prejudices she had been told by her father and brother. It was a shame that he couldn't talk to her anymore, but at least she'd managed to get away from her awful family! He was glad for her and proud of her for finally defying her father! Argus was glad that he had a dad like his, even if his mum was the way she was.

Suddenly, Argus thought of something. His mother and Mr Gaunt had just called Merope a squib, but she had been able to do magic, he'd seen her do it on more than one occasion! Which meant, they had just used it as an insult! Of course! Perhaps someone had sent the other letter to him trying to prank him! Someone like...

"Hey, Dennis! Come here now!" Argus shouted to his brother in fury.

Dennis, who had previously been watching Morphin's display of parseltongues in fascination, cockily walked over to Argus, a slick smile spread across his face.

"Enjoying that party Fargus?"

"I know what you did Dennis! You tried to make me look like a squib, but it won't work!"

"Why would I need to make you look like a squib, Fargus, you do it naturally!"

"That's it Dennis, I'm fed up of you constantly bullying me under mum's nose and getting away with it! And I'm also fed up of you generally making my life miserable every single minute of every single day! So now, I'm going to make you pay!"

"What's going on here?" Abraxas Malfoy and Orion Black came strutting up towards the two brothers, to see if Dennis, whom, despite the fact that he was a lot younger than them, they were both best friends with, needed any help.

"Fargus wants to have a go!"

"Oh really! You think you can take us on, Argus Filch? Well then, let's go somewhere more private!"

As soon as all of the boys had exited the living room and gone to the empty drawing room, the other three boys started to kick, punch and generally beat Argus up. After 5 minutes of this, Argus cried out "It's not fair! Why did you send me that letter saying I'm a squib? What've I ever done to you?"

The boys immediately ceased causing Argus pain and started to laugh "We never sent you any letter Fargus! You must actually be a squib! I supposed it rubbed off hanging round with filth like Longbottom and that muggle girl across the street!"

"I AM NOT A SQUIB! AND DONT YOU DARE SPEAK LIKE THAT ABOUT GARY OR LUCY! BESIDES, LUCY GOT A LETTER TO GO TO HOGWARTS SO SHE ISNT A MUGGLE!!!!"

"Ah, she's a mudblood, even worse! Besides, it's nothing to gloat about the fact that a dirty mudblood got accepted into Hogwarts and you didn't!"

"They must have made a mistake, I'm not a squib! I'm a wizard!"

"Try telling our parents that, Fargus!"

"NO, YOU CAN'T TELL MUM!!!!!"

"Oh don't worry, Argus Filch, we're not going to go blabbing to your mummy!" Abraxas told him, "We want to see what happens and how long you last at Hogwarts without being thrown out! I don't think a squib's ever gone to Hogwarts before! But just know this; while you are there, me, Orion and all our friends are going to be making your pitiful existence as horrible as possible..."
