Jack,
What in the world do you think you are doing?! Your nextdoor-neighbors, or your friends, have reported to me that you have been with a mudblood, whose name I cannot quite recall ath the moment. Do you have any idea what will happen if this goes any farther?! I don't want to hear anything more about you or your mudblood friend. I didn't know that I am ashamed that I have a son that would go so low. I'm disprespected now in our well respected neighborhood, and you had better shape up boy! If you do not, you know what will happen. Mostly to that little friend of yours. Do not do anything to our respected family name, Jack, or you will regret it.

Your father

Father,
I think you have been greatly mistaken. Sure, I have met a mudblood that is quite...ok. I have also met a girl that you might have heard of. Mackenzie Holden. She is far better than you have told me about her. You said she was a wicked little girl who doesn't care about her family name. I have learned, father, that you are wrong about almost everything you have taught me. You made out the Holden family to be perfect except for their daughter, who was ruining everything. But I have been to the other side, and you must understand something; people do everything for a reason. Mack did what she did for a reason. I was with her for a reason. And I'm writing you for a reason.

Father, you have treated me like some filth that is stuck to your shoe. And, to be quite frank, I'm not enjoying it. You must be aware of other peoples feelings, or that will be your downfall. I'm not going to take any crap from you anymore. I have had enough of this! I would rather be in a orphanage than with you. So, if you want the Rendel name to be cherished yet again, make sure you are aware of what I am feeling.

Jack

P.S. If I were you, I would shape up, if you really care that much about what I do.

[Jack Rendel S5]

Jack,
Do you really think so? Do you really think you have the power in this matter?! I can do what I wish with you, and if you don't like it, do you think I will really care? You may be my son, and only son, but that doesn't mean I can't control you. You have no idea what I can do to you, and I hoped when you were born that you would never find out. Perhaps, you should have never been born, it would have been a lot easier on me. Seeing as you are no use, I will have to make use out of you during the summer. I shall teach you the real meaning of pain. You may be save at Hogwarts from me, but you still live in my house, under me.

I cannot believe that you have been with that Mackenzie Holden! I am simply outraged at your behavior Jack. Have you no pride? I thought I had raised you well, but you are almost as bad as you God foresaken mother! First a mudblood and then the Holden girl! You should have met the other girl, Dixie, perhaps she would set you straight. And as for the other side, there is no other side. There is the side I am on, with all the other good people, or the other side with Mackenzie Holden, which is total darkness. I absolutly will not let you see her anymore. If I hear that you have been with her, than you will be in trouble.

Your father

Father,
Perhaps we should stop owling eachother. I come to dread breakfast when all the owls come and I see a letter from you. You make the worst part of my day, and I thought I would mention that to you seeing as it would make you smile with glee. I do not wish to write to you any longer. Seeing as I will not be the one to break up this connection, since you would punish me for it, I will wait for the day when you will not write back.

Mack is my friend, and I am afraid that I will continue to be her friend. You cannot stop me father, seeing as you are not here with me. I am in control of my actions, I will not be a pawn on your board. I have heard things about this Dixie Holdon that are not pleasent to behold. I was thinking you might have been mistaken about which sister is better, but you are perfect father, and I will not doubt your thoughts. I wish to get off a different subject, since the Holdens are not my favorite family. The only Holden I happen to know is Mackenzie and she happens to be my friend like I have already mentioned.

<sub>Jack,
I have been informed of your little trip to New York. What did you possibly think you were doing? I think you are crazy! Being with that Mack and the Holdens! Don't think you will get out of this, Jack. You will regret what you have done. I will write to you since it seems to cause you so much suffering.

Your father,
Roger</sub>

[Jack Rendel S5]

<sup>Father,
Like I said in my future owl, you cannot control my actions. You may be able to beat me when I am back at my house, but that doesn't mean you have the power over me to control me. I have that power, and that power alone. No matter how you try, you will not be able to control me with your wretchedness. Would you mind telling me why you have a thing against the Holdens? Maybe then, if I have reason, I will listen to your complaints.

Jack,
You were always a fiesty one. I knew that when you were born that I would have trouble with you. You were just like you idiot mother. Head-strong, blinded by your own stupidity. You are even a walking clone of your mother. Did you ever know that? You look excactly like her, and nothing like me. You even have her attitude and the same liking for the same stupid things. When she was at Hogwarts, she couldn't help mingling with the wrong type. Mudbloods, Gryffindors, Hufflepuffs. She even made friends with some of them. That is some of the reasons why I got rid of your mother when you were little so you didn't get influenced by any of her ideas.

About the Holdens, it is absolutly none of your damn business. That is between myself and Derreck Holden, which I'm sure you never met. You aren't worthy enough to meet a man like that, I'm afraid. You have to remember: I'm stronger, I'm better and I am sneakier than you. You never know when I will strike. Even the fool Dumbledor can't protect you like he does Harry Potter. There is now where to hide from my wrath. You must know that by now.

Your father,
Roger

[Jack Rendel S5]

Father,
Are you threatning me? I don't take threats easily. It's not like I am going to let you send your wrath upon me. I'm not that stupid. Surely, you must know that by now. You would be surprsied what Dumbledor can do, even though age is catching up with him. He is still the strongest wizard ever! Even you know that! Voldemort still doesn't stand a chance against him.

I think you are wrong about my mom. I think she had the right ideas and you have the wrong ideas. I'm glad I am more like my mother; I would have been disgraced to appear like you.

Jack

P.S. I do hope you like the color ink I have.

[Jack Rendel S5]

Jack,
I can't believe what you are doing! This is not right! You will be in a spot of trouble when you get home, you do realize this, do you not? I thought I would just refresh your memory. So, you don't like threats? I'm afraid you're going to have to get use to them then, since you are living with me. I can't believe that you are my son. You don't deserve the Rendel name. You are just like your mother, and that is your downfall in life. Giving people second chances?! What kind of Slytherin is that? You are no son of mine!
