Wrong-boy-who-lived.
Part 2.
Lilly Potter sat in her eldest son's old bedroom. Harry had went missing when he just turned ten and was never found, though the family didn't notice his absence until two days later when their friend Remus asked where he was. It was then when they realised they had neglected Harry in favour of giving all of their attention to Connor. The only way they knew Harry was still alive was because he was still the Potter heir.
Under Lilly's orders, the house elves kept Harry's room the same way he left it, except for the unopened birthday and Christmas gifts that were put at the foot of Harry's bed every year. Lilly hoped that her son would return home one day from wherever he was.
The Potters had hoped to see Harry at Hogwarts but his acceptance letter had been politely rejected, saying he was already enrolled in a school and had no wish to leave. The self addressing quill for the acceptance letters was no use either, it said his name but then said beneath it, 'forward to the Hermes post office' the post office in question was impossible to teleport to by any means and they had no idea of where it was.
Lilly hoped that the school Harry was at made him happy was safer than Hogwarts, which had already had a Voldemort-possessed teacher and basilisk petrifying students during Conner's time at the school. She suspected Connor's third year wouldn't be a break from near-death since her son had a habit of attracting trouble and she had a feeling deep within her bones.
At Muse academy the students gathered in the huge Greek-style theatre that was used for assemblies and plays, it had been modified to have cushions on the seats so they didn't have to sit on the hard rock.
The main teachers of the school, the Muses and Saxton sisters, were gathered on the stage. Melody Cain used her power so everything that they said could be heard by all of the student. Zoë Vale stepped up to speak as she was the headmistress.
"You attention please, students." she spoke clearly, everyone stopped speaking to each other and listened. "It has been decided among us that Muse academy shall make it's first attempt at making contact with the rest of the wizarding world, it is hoped that this attempt will be the first step at getting the rest of the wizarding world to put aside their prejudices by showing how well those they put down can do."
Already their were a few protests, the children didn't what it to happen for fear that it could cause the down fall of their safe haven and that the wizarding world would never accept them.
"I know your fears but we must try, as much as we want to deny it this school can't always be here so there must be other place where children like you can go and be safe. But, if we get to much prejudice or one of you get attacked we will pull out." Zoë explained. "We shall be taking part in a student exchange program with Hogwarts school, ten of our students will go there for a week then ten of theirs will come here for a week. Those chosen to go are representatives of each type of student of the academy, if you are chosen but do not wish to go please tell us and we will chose another in your place. You may return to your activities."
Harry and his four best friends gathered in his dorm room after the assembly.
"Do you think it'll work?" asked Jemma Brackett, a female Neko.
"If the rest of the wizarding world is as it was before I came here I doubt it." answered Trina Moore, a former abused pure-blood.
"I'd still like to show them how those they rejected are better than them." said Jake.
"I wonder what the reactions are going to be when they find out that not all of us are human wizards." said Harry.
"Hopefully something comedic." answered Tristan Rivers, a former runaway mundane-born.
"So, who's going if they get picked?" asked Harry.
Each of the five friends said they would go.
A week later all five friends had been picked along with Alex Berman; a part shinigami, Jimmy Moore; Trina's squib brother, Tara Jackson; a half-vampire, Pip Davidson; a fawn, and Anna Maruca; a half-blood.
Melody was going to go with the students to Hogwarts to keep an eye on all of them.
At Hogwarts, after Dumbledore said his usual stuff he had two new announcements.
"First, let's welcome our new defence against the dark arts teacher, Sirius Black." Dumbledore said.
There was a small applause, some were already betting if the fully trained auror would break the DADA curse.
"Second, the school is taking part in a student exchange program, ten of the students from the other school will be coming here for a week then vice-versa."
"What's the other school?" shouted someone from the Slytherin table.
"The school is called Muse academy."
"But that's just a myth!" someone from the Ravenclaw table exclaimed.
"I believed so too, until the headmistress approached me with the offer. She told me they never told anyone one who knew about it to keep it a secret but they never bothered publicising it either because it gave the school a level of security, but she's willing to break that level to attempt to join the school to the rest of the wizarding world." Dumbledore explained. "I believe they're here now." he suddenly said.
The doors to the great hall opened and eleven figures wearing silver cloaks walked in.
"We are from Muse academy," said the one at the front. "I am Melody Caine, the teacher accompanying our students."
Melody waved her hand and a table and benches made of solid dream-dust appeared for her students to sit at.
"Children, remove your cloaks and sit at the table." she said.
The students did as asked with Melody following them and the students of Hogwarts gasped at the sight of Jemma's cat features, Pip's lower half of his body and his horns, Melody's physical age, and Harry who still looked like a Potter and therefore was recognised as the lost Potter sibling.
All throughout dinner both student and teacher were staring at the exchange students and their teacher, but they ate their dinner and ignored the stares.
Once the students had finished their dinner Melody stood up to address the hall.
"Look, I know you have questions, so those who want to ask may put their hands up and I'll do my best to answer them." she said.
Immediately most of the hall put their hands up.
"You." Melody said, pointing to a Gryffindor.
"Aren't you a bit young to be a teacher?" he asked.
"I'm actually much older than I look, my sisters and I can change our physical age, we choose to look younger because we want to and it also helps the students to become more comfortable when talking to us."
"You." Melody pointed to a Slytherin.
"Why are some of you not wizards?" he asked rudely.
"Our school invites all magical children to learn, regardless of who or what they are. Next!"
"You." she pointed at Conner Potter.
"Why is my brother with you?" he asked angrily.
"That is for him alone to explain."
After a few more questions were answered Melody decided to retire her students for the night.
"I believe it's time for my students to sleep, can someone please escort us to our provided rooms."
As a prefect stood up to take the exchange students to their rooms, Dumbledore called out, "Mr Potter, would you please come to my office?"
Harry could feel compulsion charms coming towards him but he easily fought them off thanks to the training that was provided by the academy.
"No, sir. I'm tired and I don't currently want to talk about what I know you're going to ask." Harry answered, he then walked off with the rest of his group.
Once they arrived at the small common room and bedrooms, Melody removed all of the charms put there to spy by Dumbledore to spy on them. Everyone slept as they mentally prepared for the chaos that was undoubtedly going to happen the next day. Harry had no doubt that he would see his parents and would have an undesired confrontation with them, for now though, he slept.
