There are 12 School of Magic in the world. Some more well known then other Hogwarts, Beaubaxtons, Durmstrangs and Ilvermorny are the biggest and most well known.

But those aren't the only magic schools. However this school is not like the rest.

Unseen University for extra magic. Founded by a wizarding family, However the family wasn't of pure blood meaning the wizard had married a muggle or a no mag as there known in America. However this caused the wizarding family and the Ministry of Magic to come together and found the school, one solely for teaching witches and wizards specialised magic of the wizarding world.

Founded in the 1920's in Whitechapel, London, sits Unseen University for Extra Magic. Hidden in plain sight as just everyday University campus. It's been the safe haven for the wizarding world for years, it has its own Quidditch team and actively competes, Fantasia as founded by Yen Sid and his family, Merlin a former Hogwarts student was one of the first teachers at the school. Along with the Dr Facilier who was the first Defense against the dark arts teacher.

The school mostly focuses on extra magic with curriculum for specialised areas of the ministry's employment, like Aurors, but it does teach a more traditional basic magic as they call it. There are statues of its founder and its most famous teachers in the entrance of the University.

However the school has been met with push back from the International Confederation of Wizards over the school's origins and it's political standings. However it is recognised as a official International Magic school, allowing it to compete against the other great wizarding schools.

Headmistress Alex Russo sat at the end of the long table in the Unseen University staff faculty room. On either side of her sat Professor, Aesop Sharp, Professor Abraham Ronen, Professor Mirabel Garlick, and professor Daphne Greengrass. While Headmistress Russo was already familiar with most of the unexplainable events that had recently occurred, however her fellow professors had only just been informed.

Daphne was the first to voice her disapproval.

"Headmistress we can not, we could have a crisis on our hands."

"That will not be a problem." Alex replied.

"And how can you be certain of that? After what that Potter pulled?" Professor Sharp interjected.

"I quite agree," said the Garlick. "This sort of thing is unprecedented, and it certainly will not make us look favorable to any other magical schools."

"We will be fine. None of this reflects poorly on us" Sharp replied.

"It reflects poorly on you as a headmistress. That, in turn, makes all of us suffer," said Greengrass.

"You have only been Headmistress for slightly over a year, and in my opinion, you have done an insufficient job of looking after our interests," Daphne said accusingly.

Ronen interrupted her. "I object to that statement, and I believe you are making unfair judgements that have little to do with the situation at hand. Personally, I believe ms Russo can bring prosperity to Unseen University. Bring us into a Modern age and help compete with the other schools."

Daphne turned to Ronen.

"Oh really? I am being unfair, am I? According to you?"

Daphne's and Ronen's eyes briefly met. The charms Professor was the one to look away, a feeling of guilt forming in his mind.

Sharp turned to Daphne.

"With the growing tension in the magical community ."

"That is irrelevant to-"

"Irrelevant? You're being unreasonable'."

"That is enough," Alex declared. She stood up from her seat.

"Now unless you want to bicker some more this meeting is adjourned, professor's. You are all dismissed."

The professor's got up from their seats, all slowly filing out of the room. Garlik looked briefly at Alex , trying to wordlessly apologize to her before she stepped out the door.

Daphne was the last member in the room. Before she left, she walked over to Alex. She stared at her with those callous eyes of her, and narrowed them.

"The Ministry will hear about this, you'll be gone soon,", she said in a harsh tone.

As she turned to leave,

"Excuse me?"

The professor's stopped and turned to see who it was, It was Mirabel's voice.

"What" Daphne huffed

" How fucking dare you?" Mirabel snapped " if you don't like how ms Russo runs this school then you can fuck off"

"Not likely I'm the Duty Headmistress" Daphne replied

"And" Sharp said.

"What?"

"Well, I don't know a lot about this I just teach potions but for me Headmistress Russo has done a pretty good job so far according to me" Sharp said

" Same " Mirabel said

""What? You can't I'm the" Daphne began but she was cut off

" I say yes " Garlick added.

" Yes" Ronen said.

" Yes " Sharp said.

" Of course who are we to deny a student their education" Alex Russo said

" Now see here's" Daphne said.

Alex smiled. " Well seems like the majority says yes"

" Fine, but don't come crying to me when she fucks it all up" Daphne said and she stormed out of the room. Sharp turned to Alex.

" She does know that we have to rebuild right?" he asked.

" Yes, but I doubt she cares" Alex replied, " Now I must send letters to the students, Could you and the other staff begin preparations for arrivals" she turned on her heel and headed towards her office.

" That we can do" sharp replied.
