A/N- I own nothing of Harry Potter
Separation of Goals
Chapter Two:
Well that went well, he mused. It now has been three days since that lovely article appeared to the public eye. The now new and improved Harry Potter, Lord of Potter or now mysteriously known as Anton Lukyen, well, he smirked. That name is currently unknown. But it will be known soon.
He was currently staying with his newfound friend Neville Longbottom, or as he mentioned to him, Dain Rowthen. The Longbottom estate had a taste of elegance and beauty with the beautiful plants and trees. Of course also thanks to Neville's talent for herbology, it remained that way.
The Order of the Phoenix, he knew was looking for him even though he wrote a letter that basically said that he was safe and was taking a vacation for the rest of the summer before he went back to Hogwarts. Clearly, they didn't believe that, since he saw several members looking though London and Diagon Alley. Among them were "Mad Eye" Moody and Kingsley Shacklebolt. They were very conspicuous as he watched them stroll down the alleys, probably taking lessons from Dumbledore.
They couldn't trust him to remain safe could they? Apparently not. He though remained hidden and would not expose him. That was not part of the plan, after all.
"Harry, the OWLS have arrived," Neville told him, cutting him off from his musings.
He opened his up. He would have to go to Diagon Alley later for his school supplies, he mused as he took the papers out of the envelope.
Dear Mr. Potter,
We congratulate you on your above average scores on the standardized OWL exams. You have proven yourself to be an acceptable student according to these grades and will be accepted into Advanced NEWT level classes.
Congratulations.
Sincerely,
Martha Hopkins.
Head Examiner of the OWLS.

Surprised? He certainly was. He should tell Neville and the other guys. Even perhaps Neville's grandmother. She was kind to him, certainly encouraged him to eat more and helped him with Politics that Sirius started him on before his death.
One thing, though, that he was sure of. Someone got Snape drunk in order to give him and O on his Potions OWL score. That man would never let any Potter get into Advanced NEWT Potions without anything influencing him.
"Hey Harry, how did you do?"Neville asked?
"Got 12 OWLS. Though someone probably screwed Snape up in order to give me an O." Harry mentioned.
"An O, great man. I got an E and only 11 OWLS." Neville passed back the paper.
"Well this is going to be an interesting year; I mean the Four Mysterious Families and our Game plan." Harry told him, with a sly smirk.
"Yes. The Game. So far it's one to zero for our opponents. That must really tick them off; I mean really, it would tick me off." Neville added, with smile.
"We should really up this Game." Harry told him, starting from his position from the chair in the dining room.
"I already sent the letters." Neville rose too.
"Let's go then."
The Daily Prophet
Mysterious Lords Out. A Name Revealed.
The same four young men were seen strolling around Wizarding Paris. This time they were dressed in the current clothing that has been seen on the current market and currently the rage with all of the Paris aristocrats. We followed them around the alley and followed their purchases. They stopped by an expensive café for a quick meal and after they left, we asked the manager the name that they gave for the reservation. It was revealed to be Anton Lukyen, one of the Mysterious Four. Who is this Anton Lukyen and who are his mysterious three companions?
Well, we at the Prophet hope to continue keeping you updated on the current news about the Four.
-Bartholomew Kraaus
-Continue on Page 3 for the current styles on the market.
-Continue on Page 4 for the Mysterious Fours' clothing that day in Paris.
While at the Order's Current Hide Out, they were discussing two main topics: Harry Potter and the new article on the Prophet. There were two reactions, amusement and rage. Amusement for mainly Severus Snape, current spy Death Eater and Master Potions Master. He was from a middle aristocrat family and had connections to those who were privy to the upper elite gossip. He knew that the Game was going on and knew that whoever were the Mysterious Four, then they would not reveal anymore then they were ready to reveal. This outing to Paris was just a teaser and that they were playing with the other two opponents. The rage was for Harry's Two Friends: Ronald Weasley and Hermione Granger. Nothing more was to be said on that topic.
Harry Potter was the other topic discussed. Or well yelled or complained about. No one could find that boy. It was like he disappeared from the planet or perhaps died. Well until a letter from an owl came through the window.
Dear Headmaster Dumbledore and friends,
I am well and having fun on my vacation. I got 12 OWLS if you are wondering and I have not disappeared from the planet. Well, that's it and I will see you at Hogwarts or on the Platform of 9 ¾, either one.
Toodles,
Harry
Well that went well, if the reactions were to be judged by. Bravo Harry, his mysterious informant internally said.
