Wizarding World: Harry Potter
On the night of November 1, 1981 most of the Wizarding World of Britain was celebrating. They were celebrating the fall of the most powerful Dark Lord of the last 500 years. They celebrated, cheering the Saviour of the Wizarding World. But not once during their celebrating did they think about the price two young babies had to pay so they could have peace. Not once did they think about the little orphans - one who was being left on the doorstep of a family who didn't want him, and one was left at some muggle orphanage. Not once did they think that the twins had lost all of their family that night, along with each other. It was on that night that Albus Dumbledore left one of the orphans, Harry Potter, on the doorstep of their aunt's home. He then took Daisy Potter to an orphanage in some muggle town far from the Dursleys home. Albus Dumbledore, who was considered by many as the greatest wizard since the Founders of Hogwarts, as confident that he had made the right choice. They were, after all, for the greater good of the Wizarding World if the twins would be separated. It was best that Harry grew up away from all the fame that he was certain to receive, so that when he finally went to Hogwarts it would be easier to guide him in the right direction, because the boy would not have been subjected to the bigotry of the wizarding world. As for Daisy, keeping her away from her twin and out of the wizarding world is beneficial for her in a sense that she would be sheltered from the harsh reality of being the twin of the Boy-Who-Lived. In all his wisdom he saw no problem with his plan, in his opinion there was no way it could go wrong. It would take ten years for Albus Dumbledore to start to understand how wrong his plan would go, and a few more after that for him to really see just how wrong he was when it came to dealing with the young Daisy Potter.

A Harry Potter AU inspired by J.K. Rowling's universe Prologue: The Forgotten Twin The wizarding world knew of Harry Potter-the Boy Who Lived, the Chosen One, the child who had miraculously survived the Killing Curse. They whispered his name in awe, hailed him as a symbol of hope, and watched his every move with anticipation. But no one spoke of the other one. Roxana Potter had been forgotten. The night Voldemort came for them, the Dark Lord had turned his wand upon both Potter twins, yet fate had only spared one in the eyes of the world. Harry had been the one cradled by destiny, while Roxana had been cast into the shadows of obscurity. Dumbledore had placed them both with the Dursleys, but from the very beginning, the difference in their treatment was clear. Harry was mistreated, yes-but Roxana? She was invisible. If Harry was a burden, she was a ghost, drifting through the household without acknowledgment, without affection, without a place. She had quickly learned that love was not meant for her And Harry-her twin, her only family left-despised her. "You should have died instead of our parents," he had once spat, his emerald eyes burning with something Roxana couldn't name At first, she had tried to understand him. The pain of losing their parents had left wounds too deep to heal. But as the years passed, she realized it wasn't grief that drove him to hate her It was something deeper. Something neither of them understood By the time they turned eleven, Roxana had stopped trying to fix whatever had broken between them. Instead, she embraced the silence, the bitterness, the cold distance that stretched between them And then, the Hogwarts letter came The world she had only read about in stolen books would finally be hers. But Roxana had no illusions-Harry Potter would walk into Hogwarts as a legend. And she? She would be no one Being invisible had its advantages. And sometimes, the ones forgotten by the world could become its greatest threat.
