Alrighty! Welcome to my new story! This is a Harry goes to Ilvermorny story! With that standing, there will be a lot of OCs and semi-spoilers for Fantastic Beasts because that movie did take place in America. The OC reason is that while wizards can live for a long time, that just doesn't mean that they're going to be interacting with young Harry while he's at Ilvermorny! Now that aside, you'll notice, if you're a hardcore HP fan, that the OCs have actual canonical last names. I painstakingly searched the wiki for American family names so they wouldn't be completely OC. The spoilers, however, you'll just have to wait to see because that'd give away the next chapter. Alright! Also, as usual this is a slash story and I already have the pairing ready. I picked somebody who would be American and likely a student at Ilvermorny at the time that Harry would be, Samuel G. Quahog the current, in our time, president of MACUSA. Also, before anyone says that "What about Rapaport's Law and the wand licensing!" Well, since this takes place in 1990, Rapaport's Law doesn't exist anymore, it was repealed in 1965. Anyways, onwards we go!

From British to American

Harry James Potter wasn't your average almost, in like a month and a few weeks, eleven year-old boy. One at first may think this was because of how his relatives treated him. His bedroom was the cupboard under the stairs which had stunted many of his growing processes. From how tall he was because of the small space to the fact he needed glasses from the constant darkness. All of that attributed to the small eleven year old boy under the stairs. However, that was not the reason that Harry James Potter wasn't your average eleven year old boy. It was the fact that he was a wizard.

But Harry didn't know this, no rather his relatives, specifically his Aunt, had made sure not to let the boy know of this revelation. Because you see, Petunia Dursley had always been jealous of her sister, ever since she had gotten her letter to Hogwarts. But that jealousy had deepened when Petunia had sent a letter to Hogwarts, asking if she could come and she was denied. But unfortunately for her, her plan of leaving Harry uniformed will be ruined.

It was about a month before Harry's eleventh birthday. Today had started off rather normal with Petunia waking him up to prepare breakfast with Harry only getting the bare necessities. He had already retrieved the mail and had given it to Petunia. He then proceeded to start his long list of chores, getting through some of them before it was lunch time where he prepared lunch for his relatives. After that he continued on his list of chores, onto the task of weeding the garden. That was when the odd things started as a brown owl flew by him and landed to the right of him. In the talons of the owl was an envelope that it held out. Harry, curious, took the envelope and read it.

Harry James Potter

Number Four Privet Drive

Surrey, England

Harry was rather confused by the letter. It was addressed to him which in itself was odd as he had never really had gotten a letter before. He flipped over the envelope and saw a wax seal on the back. The seal was somehow red, gold, and blue and it had words that Harry couldn't exactly read because the words were so small. Besides the words were four creatures that he couldn't really identify. One looked like a snake, another a bird, another a cat, and the last some man-like creature. He shrugged his shoulders before he undid the seal and opened the envelope. He quickly pulled out the letter inside and read it.

Dear Mr. Potter,

You have been accepted into the Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, as per request of your parents, Lily and James Potter. Normally we rarely accept students such as you who are usually educated in different school, Hogwarts in your case. However, because your father is a descendant of Abraham Potter, one of the first twelve aurors of America, we gladly accepted you. Now, your parents have warned us that you will more than likely be muggle raised due to the machinations of Albus Dumbledore, who while not necessarily bad, believes in the Greater Good and will have ignored the possibility that your mother's sister will not raise you nicely. Therefore we have decided to send you a representative in order to educate you in the Wizarding World as well as transport you to the New York Magical Department Store, Magical 7. There they will show you everything there that you need and then transport you to the Woolworth Building where the Magical Congress of the United States, MACUSA, is located. It is there that we will determine your custody as per the fact that your mother actually gave birth to you on MACUSA soil, making you an American Citizen as well as a British Citizen in terms of Magical Legislature. Now I know this may be overwhelming but your parents put this all together so that you can have a better childhood and wizarding education. So, if you agree to attend, please simply sign the bottom of this letter. It will alert us to the fact that you've agreed and the representative will promptly arrive.

Sincerely,

Agilbert Fontaine

Headmaster of Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

Congressman of the Congress of Magic

Honorary Auror and Descendant of Theodard Fontaine

Harry was rather stunned. Was this a practical joke because it does seem like something Dudley would attempt to pull. But then again he was giving Dudley's tiny pig like brain too much credit, as the rotund boy couldn't of have thought of this. Neither could have Vernon because of the same reasons as Dudley. Now, Harry knew his Aunt was rather intelligent but it couldn't have been her because of her vehement dislike of the word Magic so it eliminated her from the possible joke pullers. So, by process of elimination, this had to be true. He was a wizard?! That was so cooooool! Harry instantly dug into his worn slacks and pulled out a pen that he had pilfered from Dudley the other day while the pig in a wig wasn't looking. With a quick click of the button at the end of the pen and a flourish, his full name was signed at the bottom of the letter. Suddenly his name glowed gold before it stopped, changing the ink from black to dark green. Harry assumed that the magic used a system of green for yes and red for no. Magic… That's really something though! Seconds later though there was a muffled crack that he was sure his relatives didn't hear due to listening to the TV so loud. He turned towards the source and spotted a dark skinned woman wearing a simple t-shirt and jeans. Her hair was a dirty blonde and was tied into a ponytail. The woman approached him with a smile before she crouched down to his level, as Harry was still sitting on the ground.

"You must be Harry Potter, I'm Vivianne Picquery, I'll be your Defense teacher." She said with a smile, holding out her hand.

"…Hi." Harry said nervously, shaking the hand.

That seemed to make the woman chuckle at him, causing him to blush and hide his face.

"Aren't you adorable. So, Harry, are you ready to see the Wizarding World?" She asked, turning the last bit into a conspiratorial whisper.

Harry nodded eagerly, the woman standing straight up and holding her hand out once more. Harry grabbed it and Vivianne helped him up.

"Alright Harry, what I'm about to do is known as Side-Along Apparition. Apparition is the ability for Wizards and Witches to transport themselves from one place to another in a near blink of an eye." She said.

Harry perked up at that, a memory from when he was young appearing in his head.

"Like disappearing from behind a trash can and reappearing on a rooftop?" Harry asked.

She smiled at him, nodding eagerly before speaking.

"Exactly that! So it seems you've accidentally apparated before! That's very good Harry, it is extremely rare that kids like you apparate via accidental magic. It's a sign that means you're an extremely powerful wizard." She said.

Harry was in awe at that, him, powerful? Just this morning he was just a boy in a cupboard, but now he was a powerful wizard.

"Of course, you'll have to learn how to use that magic though. Anyhow, I will warn you, apparition, especially side-along, is very disconcerting to first timers. So you may feel nauseated after we get to New York." She said.

Harry nodded at that and braced himself, keeping a hold of the nice lady's hand. The woman smiled once more before she took one step forward and turned. Then it happened, Vivianne's arm seemed to twist away, causing him to grip even harder and then everything went black. For what seemed to be two seconds he felt pressure all over his body as if he was being squeezed into a rubber tube. While it wasn't exactly painful it was still extremely disconcerting and Harry could tell why it would make anyone nauseous. As soon as those two seconds ended, they were suddenly in an alley and Harry was on his knees, dry heaving. He then felt something on his lips and Vivianne told him to drink, to which he did. It had a weird cherry taste, like the taste of cough syrup but it made the nausea go away.

"What was that?" Harry asked as she helped him up.

"That Harry, was an Anti-Nausea potion. It does just as the name says." She said with a smile.

Harry processed that as he looked around. At the entrance of the alley, Harry could see the tall buildings of New York City as well as the infamous traffic of the place. Though, Harry was confused as none of the passersby had looked their way. He voice that question to his guide.

"Ah, well that has to do with two things. One is that there is a No-Maj Notice-Me-Not ward placed on this alley. It causes No-Majs, people who don't have magic, to ignore this alley as if it doesn't exist. The other reason is because it's rush hour Harry, nobody pays attention during rush hour." She said, ending it with a joking smile.

Harry giggled a bit before nodding at that. She then proceeded to lead him out of the alley and onto the streets of New York City. Harry was utterly astounded because it was rather amazing! He had never been anywhere but Surrey so it was cool to see skyscrapers and cars and all this rush! Although Harry didn't see it, Vivianne was frowning at his enthusiasm at simply seeing a city. It had confirmed more of her thoughts that she had generated when she first saw the boy. Shaking those thoughts out of her head now, she instructed him to take out the second sheet of paper which had a list of all the supplies he needed. Harry did so and started to read it.

IT IS MANDATORY FOR ALL FIRST YEARS TO TAKE AN INHERITANCE TEST AT LUNA MUTANTE BANKING TO DETERMINE ANY ANCESTORS AND IF A PERSON HOLDS A HEREDITARY SEAT ON THE CONGRESS OF MAGIC

"Inheritance Test?" Harry asked.

Vivianne nodded at him as they made their way through New York City.

"Mhm. Magical America holds the belief that No-Maj borns, the ones born with two No-Majs as parents, are descendants of squibs. It's to find someone who can fill long empty seats on the Hereditary half of the Congress." She said.

Harry nodded, even though he was still a bit confused on the Congress part. Vivianne, seeing this and guessing what he was confused on, spoke.

"Unlike No-Maj America which is a bicameral legislature, Magical America is unicameral, the Congress of Magic. It consists of fifty hereditary seats and fifty elected seats. A person can hold multiple hereditary seats but only one elected seat and must not have a hereditary seat." She explained.

To Harry that seemed an awful lot like the Parliament which he assumed it was based on, except as far as he was aware, someone could only hold one hereditary seat in Parliament.

"That seems a bit unfair, doesn't it? What if someone abuses their hereditary seats?" Harry asked.

She chuckled at that, somewhat understanding his concern.

"They can't actually abuse them really. Both Hereditary and Elected seat holders have constituents like the No-Maj Senators do. There is one Hereditary Seat and one Elected Seat per state, and as you probably are thinking, yes we didn't always have one hundred, it increased as America gained States." Vivianne said.

That made Harry think, he was mentioned to be a descendant of one of the original Aurors, whatever that was, of this country. Did this mean his family held a hereditary seat? Does that mean he has constituents? But even then, she still hadn't fully answered his question, so he figured he'd ask after she finished.

"Anyways, they can't abuse their seats because they are made to swear a vow that they'll listen to their constituents to the best of their abilities. This doesn't mean that they can be forced to do whatever their constituents want but rather they do what they think is best for their constituents. If they fail that vow, they're stripped of their seats and they are transferred to the next closest in line. If there is none, then the seats are absolved back and granted to a new family that Magical America believe are worthy or a new person is elected." Vivianne explained.

Well, that was a really nice system and a lot less corrupt than the No-Maj government, at least from what Harry heard on the news.

"Do I have a seat?" Harry asked.

Vivianne looked back at him when he said that and smiled before nodding.

"Mhm, Abraham Potter's family was granted a seat after he became one of the first Aurors, those are basically Wizarding Police. You'll gain access to it when you turn sixteen or are emancipated, whichever comes first." She said.

Vivianne then turned and walked across a crosswalk leading up to a gigantic building that had a red sign that read 'Century 21'. Waiting until nobody was heading into the building, Vivianne pulled out a small thin stick and waved it in front of a painted M21 by the right set of doors. There was an imperceptible flash and Vivianne pulled Harry through the door. The sights that he had seen previously in the store through the doors instantly changed into a magical sight. Instead of mundane shopping stores, there were magical stores that had floating objects outside as well as brooms, cages, and other things. The people inside wouldn't have seemed magical if it wasn't for the fact that they were talking about things like dragons blood and eye of newt. The reason behind this was that everyone here was wearing No-Maj type clothing like dresses, jeans, t-shirts, and all that stuff. The names of the shops ranged from Adrian's Apothecary to Paige and Cauver to Lady Selk's Clothing for Everyday Use. It was rather amazing in Harry's opinion. The first place that Vivianne seemed to lead Harry to was a store at the end of the way. When Harry took a closer look at it, he noticed that it wasn't a store but rather a bank. Looking up he saw a sign that was written in cursive and in between a Full Moon symbol and a Wolf that read Luna Mutante Banking. Guarding the entrance of the store were a man and a woman who had roguish looks that spoke of a wilder attitude. Vivianne must have seen the confusion on Harry's face because she explained to him soon after he looked at the two.

"Luna Mutante Banking, or simply Luna Mutante, is the American Wizarding Bank and it's ran by weres, both Native American and not." She said.

"Weres? Like werewolves?" He asked, curious.

She smiled and nodded.

"Yep. When MACUSA was first formed, Selene Romulus, a Native American werewolf, offered to create a bank and she was granted permission to form the sole bank for America." She said.

Harry figured that was kinda cool that an entire race of people ran a bank. Vivianne led him up to one of the tellers which was a woman in a simple pants suit.

"Hello, welcome to Luna Mutante Banking today, how may I help you?" The woman asked with a smile.

Vivianne smiled back at the woman before sliding forward a piece of paper.

"I have an appointment at eight thirty with Rex Vulpes concerning the inheritance of Harry James Potter as well as making a Gringotts-Luna Mutante joint account for him." She said.

The woman looked over the piece of paper before nodding and tapping it with a wand that slid into her hand. The paper floated up and zoomed into the practical maze of hallways behind her that no doubt led deeper into the bank. A few minutes later a rough looking man with black hair that was peppered with gray came walking in. The man had a scar that ran from the upper right part of his face to his chin and seemed to be wearing a three piece suit. The man seemed to smile at Vivianne.

"Ah Professor Picquery! How goes your teaching?" The man asked, holding out his hand.

Vivianne smiled as well before grasping the hand and shaking it.

"Not bad Mr. Vulpes. It's definitely a lot better without your pranks during my classes." She said with a raised brow.

That seemed to cause the man to sheepishly chuckle.

"How did you know it was me? I made sure to target myself as well." He said.

"Mr. Vulpes, you're a werefox. Your kind of were is known to be tricksters and it doesn't help that you signed each prank with your magical signature." She said with a chuckle.

That seemed to cause a light dusting of pink to appear on Rex's face. He quickly shook his head and gestured for them to follow. He led them through the winding hallways until they reached a door that held a name plaque with Rex's name on it. He led them into the room and had Harry and Vivianne sit at the two seats in front of the desk. The desk was very sparse and didn't have much paper on it. Most of the paper seemed to be in a small tray that said IN. The one that said OUT seemed to be empty. Rex dug through one of the cabinets before pulling out a large sheet of paper and a red feathered quill. He set the paper and quill in front of Harry.

"This quill is known as a Blood Quill, only Banking Institutions are allowed to use them for inheritance tests and blood binding contracts. Otherwise it is completely illegal to use them on a person with punishment of up to twenty years in Alcatraz." He said.

"Alcatraz? I thought that place was abandoned?" Harry asked.

The man chuckled, causing Harry to blush once more.

"I forgot you're not from here. No-Maj Alcatraz is closed, yes. Like how this building is hidden and how the MACUSA building is hidden, Magical Alcatraz is hidden. It is there were we keep our criminals. Although, the worst offenders get sentenced to death." He said.

Harry ah'ed at that before picking up the quill. He looked at it funnily before looking up at Rex and Vivianne.

"Oh. You're supposed to sign your name at the bottom of the paper. It'll do the rest from there. Be warned though you'll feel a slight scratch at the back of your hand as you write." Rex said.

Harry nodded and began to sign his name. As Rex said, Harry felt the scratching at the back of his hand as he wrote without ink. He soon found out how he was managing to sign his name and why it was a Blood Quill, as he saw his name being written in his blood. Once he finished the paper seemed to pulse before red lines started to grow with names attached to them. From his father's side it seemed to go Fleaumont Potter and Euphemia Potter to Henry Potter and Marie Potter and so on before touching at Abraham Potter and further back. Rex seemed to gasp when his father's end seemed to touch upon the name Ignotus Peverell. After it finished his father's line it started at his mother's line. It did her parents' names followed by theirs and so forth but this time Rex and Vivianne both gasped when it said Martha Steward II followed by Isolt Sayre and James Steward. Off to the side of the family tree it started listing things that Harry read.

Heir to the Ancient and Noble House of Peverell – No Hereditary Seats but has a Wizengamot Seat

Heir to the Ancient and Noble House of Potter – One Hereditary Seat as well as One Wizengamot Seat

Heir to the Ancient and Noble House of Sayre, formerly Gaunt, formerly Slytherin – One Hereditary Seat as well as Four Wizengamot Seats

Heir to the Honorary House of Steward – One Hereditary Seat and no Wizengamot Seat

Hereditary Magical Traits are as follow: Parseltongue and Parselmagic

"Well, it's safe to say that we weren't expecting that. Well, Mr. Potter, it looks like you have three Congress Seats." Rex said with a soft chuckle.

Vivianne nodded at that before Rex turned and faced a large mirror that Harry just now noticed. The man tapped the mirror with his wand before speaking.

"Rex Vulpes contacting Ragnorak of the Goblins." He intoned.

The mirror briefly flashed for a second before it shimmered and revealed a short man sitting in a chair, looking at the mirror. The man, who Harry assumed to be a Goblin, smiled at the sight of Rex.

"Ah if it isn't the Were Council's prodigy. What have you need of me Rex?" Ragnorak asked.

That seemed to cause Rex to slightly blush before he got to the point.

"Ah, well we are in need of creating a Gringotts-Luna Mutante joint account for one Harry James Potter." Rex said.

Ragnorak rose a brow and then looked behind Rex, spotting Harry. That prompted the man to 'ah' and pull out some papers.

"That shouldn't be too hard, especially since you're using those in and out trays I sent you so I can write it up and instantly send it to you. Though I am surprised Mr. Potter is attending Ilvermorny." Ragnorak said, musing at the end.

While Ragnorak started writing on the papers, Professor Picquery chose to explain the situation.

"His parents deemed it safer to have Mr. Potter to attend a school not run by Albus Dumbledore, not that they don't trust the man but…" Vivianne trailed off.

Ragnorak nodded and capped his pen as he finished the papers. He then stamped the upper right corner with a tiny stamp before putting them in the OUT bin, causing them to vanish and reappear in Rex's IN bin.

"I understand. The man believes in the group rather than the individual. He's a great man but his views would hamper young Harry, especially with his status as Savior." Ragnorak said.

Rex picked up the papers and began to fill in the section that he needed to. Harry chose that time to inquire about what Ragnorak said.

"Savior?" He asked.

Vivianne facepalmed before she spoke, realizing she forgot to mention something.

"Oh, yes. Well, when you were a baby there was a dangerous Wizard terrorizing Britain. Of course, he hadn't come to America or any other country yet, but everyone was fearful. For some reason this man targeted your family one night and killed your parents. But when he attempted to kill you, the Killing Curse reflected back and killed him, or so people say." Vivianne said.

"So people say?" Harry asked, confused.

She nodded as she readjusted herself in the seat, her body starting to get a little stiff.

"Yes, well. Lord Voldemort was known to have dabbled deeply in Black Magic so it is possible he has managed to tether himself to this world." She said.

"Black Magic?" Harry asked.

Rather quickly Vivianne perked up at that, eager to talk about the subject she taught at Ilvermorny.

"Right, well in the Wizarding World we have five types of magic. Black Magic, Dark Magic, Gray Magic, Light Magic, and White Magic. It's sort of like a spectrum." She said.

"So… does that mean Black Magic is bad and White Magic is good?" He asked.

That caused her to shake her head violently.

"No not at all… well… You see Black and White Magic are really dangerous to use without someone with you. You see, Black Magic relies heavily on emotions to acquire the intended effect. If you use it too much it can lead to hypersensitized emotions causing you quick to anger and quick to be cruel but at the same time quick to love someone and quick to be happy." She said, somehow catching the attention of Ragnorak.

Ragnorak was rather interested because Britain didn't teach magic like that, believing Dark Magic was bad and Light was good. Everywhere else in the world, like America, taught it otherwise.

"White Magic on the other hand relies on a lack of emotions. You cannot let emotions interfere without it backfiring on you. However, if you use it too much you become desensitized to emotions until you can't feel anything at all. Each side has horrible magic though so don't think either is pure good." She said.

That seemed to elicit a groan from Rex who had just cloned a copy of the paperwork and sent it back over to Ragnorak.

"Please don't remind me of my Seventh Year paper you assigned me. I had to research the vilest White Magic and Black Magic there is. I covered Aztec Sacrificial Magic for White Magic and Horcruxes for Black Magic. It was really hard to find any information on either since they're rather ancient pieces of magic." He groaned.

Vivianne simply chuckled and rose an eyebrow at Rex.

"Well, you were the one who chose ancient forms of magic. You could have simply chosen Obscurial Magic for Black Magic and Slavery Binds for White Magic." She pointed out.

That caused Rex to scowl and shake his head.

"And be like everyone else? I swear, even though the last known Obscurial was here in the nineteen twenties everyone chose that topic. They also chose Slavery Binds because of freaking House Elves. I wanted to be unique." He said with a huff.

Professor Picquery rolled her eyes before she turned her attention back to Harry who seemed to be laughing which caused her to smile. Ragnorak cleared his throat to catch everyone's attention.

"Alright then, the paperwork's done so you now have a joint vault between our two banks. This means that the Luna Mutante vault will have your entire fortune in Sprinks and Dragots while the Gringotts vault will have everything in Galleons, Sickles, and Knuts. If you take money out of one vault, the other will deduct the currency difference from itself. Rex will explain the rest from here, I have a meeting in a few minutes. It was nice seeing you Rex." Ragnorak said before the mirror went blank and back to its normal state.

Rex turned towards them and nodded before pulling out two items. One was a simple old fashioned key and the other was a credit card, something he had seen his Aunt with.

"This key will grant you access to your vault. You won't be able to access your main vault which holds all your artifacts and everything else until you are emancipated or hit sixteen. This credit card will allow you to purchase anything you need in both the No-Maj world and the Magical World. Also.." He said before leaning down.

He started shuffling through his desk before he found what he was looking for. It was a simple slip of paper, that is until he waved his wand over it. When he did, writing appeared across it. He then handed it to Harry who read it and gapped at the numbers.

"That is your account statement with how much money you have available to you. It is safe to say that unless you go spending hundreds of thousands of galleons ever few months you won't be broke." Rex said.

That much was true, the number on the piece of paper was insane. It even gave him a translation of the currency to No-Maj currency. Thankfully, it also explained how American Currency worked. There were two unites, a Dragots and a Sprinks which functioned just like the American No-Maj currency. There were a hundred Sprinks to a Dragot and the Dragot had fractional units in the form of fourths and halves. Once he finished reading it he thanked the man and he and Professor Picquery left to go get his stuff.

When they got outside of the bank, the first place she took him to was a trunk store. It was there that Harry got a four compartment trunk that had a library section, a section for his potions ingredients, a section for his clothes, and a section for everything else. They then made their way to the clothing store because that would take the longest according to Vivianne. And boy was she right because it took about two hours for them to get all the clothes he needed. Though, Harry was thankful that his clothing had expansion charms just in case he grew so he wouldn't have to go through it again. The next stop was the apothecary where he got all his potions equipment and his potions kit followed by the book store, Paige and Cauver. That lasted the second longest because Harry wanted a lot of different books and when he came to the counter with a lot of books the cash register lady smiled at him and said something about him being a Horned Serpent. Vivianne said that it would be explained later to him. Lastly they stopped at the pet store, A Magical's Familiar. It was there that Harry found a pet snake, specifically a Frostwinder. Frostwinders were cousins to the Ashwinder, a snake that lived only for an hour before bursting into flames after laying eggs. However, unlike their cousins, Frostwinders can live for years upon years and were very venomous. Their venom causes acute hypothermia that is very painful and deadly, causing the victim to practically freeze to death. At first Vivianne was going to deny Harry the snake until he showed that he could actually speak with the snake. She then made him promise to ask the snake to not bite anyone unless threatened if he wanted to keep it as a familiar. Harry agreed, as did the snake, and in turn Harry named the snake, which was a male, Shimo which was Japanese for frost. From there, they departed for the MACUSA building where Harry would find out about his living arrangements.
