Goodbye Alice in Wonderland
Chapter XVI
The only pub in Little Hangleton was full tonight. All the villagers had gathered to gossip about the latest development in their village which was the new owner of Riddle house. The house was once owned by the Riddle's, the richest family in Little Hangleton. It was located on the top of the hill and was the biggest house there. However, since the Riddle family died mysteriously fifty years ago, the ownership of the house fell into different hands and now the house was sold again. The new owner had come to inspect the house that morning and villagers had caught glimpse of the man. He was handsome and tall with long silvery blond hair. Dressed in expensive black suit, the aristocrat man screamed power and money.
"Did you see his car?" one of the villagers asked.
"Yeah, I never saw car that looked that expensive before." Another man replied enviously, thinking that the closest he saw a black Rolls Royce Phantom before was on the television.
"What about Frank?" one woman inquired.
"Still works there, Connie." Her friend replied. "I heard that the Riddle house will be destroyed and the new owner will build a new building to replace it."
"Who is the new owner?" That was the question everyone wanted to know the answer.
""Must be some lord from London."
"Yeah, he bought the house for charity you know."
"Really?" Connie asked curiously. She wasn't the only one. Half of the pub occupants leaned forward to hear the answer.
"Yes, he is going to build orphanage there I heard."
"Wish I had that kind of money," one young man grumbled.
"We all do, dear." One of the pub patron replied.
They spent all night gossiping about the lord and wondering about what changes the man was going to bring to Little Hangleton.

As for Harry Potter, he went to spend one day at his relatives house, the Dursleys. As usual, Sirius accompanied him. This would be the last time Harry stayed there since Voldemort would be finished by the end of his fourth year. He left as soon as he could.
Remus was reading book when Harry and Sirius returned to Grimmauld Place. He raised his eyebrow at both of them. "What is it?" he asked.
Harry rolled his eyes. "Dudley is on diet so Sirius saw that as perfect opportunity to rub it in his face."
"What?' Sirius said. "That pig deserved it. With the way they treated you it's lucky I don't do worse to them!"
"And what did he do?" Remus asked.
"He ordered Dobby to bring as much food as possible to Privet Drive. He then put that food on the dining table. Then he proceeded to eat the steak, roasted chicken, chocolate tart and everything while Dudley watched enviously." Harry explained.
Remus shook his head. "Sirius," he began exasperatedly. "That is very childish of you to do that. You're the adult here." He chastised.
"I could do worse," Sirius cut his best friend rant off. "With the way they treated Harry before." If only Harry let him, the Dursleys would find out what the Blacks could do to their enemy.
"Well, I'm with you guys now, right," Harry interrupted.
"Hmph!" Sirius snorted. He was obviously displeased about the Dursleys situation.
"So, what are you going to do this summer Harry?" Remus asked suddenly.
"Well, I'm going to visit the Weasleys of course. Then I'm going abroad with Lucius for a few weeks." He turned to Sirius. "You have bought the tickets for Quidditch World Cup, haven't you?" he asked.
"Of course!" Sirius replied enthusiastically. "I can't wait for it!"
Harry had plan about what he was going to do for the summer holiday. First, he was going to visit the Burrows every day to play Quidditch with Ron, the twins and Ginny. It was easy to do so now since their fireplace was connected. While he did that, Lucius would take his son to Asia. After that, he and Lucius would go to Germany and Greece. They were going to establish another headquarters of their muggle company in Frankfurt while sightseeing around then continued to Greece since Lucius had villa in Santorini.
His birthday would be celebrated at the Burrows. Harry had invited the Tonks, the Lovegoods, the Longbottoms and the Grangers as well as members of Gryffindor Quidditch team and his class of Gryffindor students. Currently, Hermione and her parents were in Switzerland but they would come since Harry had acquired international Portkey for them.

As Harry was busy planning his holiday, Draco Malfoy, on the other hand, was busy contemplating his parents' upcoming divorce. Lucius had called him to his study that evening. When Draco arrived there, he found his mother was already seated t next to her husband.
"Have a seat, Draco." Lucius ordered.
He did as he was told.
In the following one hour, Lucius explained to him that he was going to divorce with his mother since he had found someone else and it wouldn't be fair to Narcissa so he decided to release her from the marriage so she could find someone else who loved her too.
"We love you very much," Narcissa Malfoy told her only child. "Nothing is going to change that."
Lucius had settled which property to bequeath his wife and also the amount of monthly allowance. The papers were also taken care of. That left it to Narcissa to talk with Sirius since she was going to be Black again. After that, he could announce the divorce publicly. Draco would stay with him since his son was the Malfoy heir and Lucius got his custody but Narcissa was free to visit her son whenever she wanted to. He told his son about this.
Draco knew that his parents were betrothed since they were children but he was under impression that they loved each other. However, his mother didn't look upset at all about her husband leaving her. When he later inquired as to why, Narcissa smiled and said that since Lucius had someone else then she would look for someone special too. Having assured that both his parents loved him and he could see them anytime he wanted too, Draco finally accepted it.
Now, that he was thinking about it. Lucius seemed to change since two years ago. His father was still strict with him but he was less demanding and didn't act as harshly as before. His biggest surprise came when Lucius saw his mark but instead of berating him like he did during Draco's first year because Granger beat his mark, Lucius merely said that Draco could get better mark if he studied harder. That was it.
Lucius also spent more time with him. He still remembered the trip to South Africa with his father. Lucius never ever once took him to his business trip before. Even at their yearly summer holiday, Lucius would mostly leave him with Narcissa. However, this improvement also had negative effect, for Draco at least. His father didn't spoil him as much as he did before and he also set some new rules for him to obey. For example, no whining, no picking fight with the other students and all or he would get punishment. But Draco preferred this version of his father rather than the old one.
There was a knock on his door and Draco was jolted out from his reverie. The door opened to reveal Lucius Malfoy. His father strode him.
"Father," he greeted him.
Lucius inclined his head at him. "I'm leaving for business to go to Asia," he began. "It will do you to see the wizarding world there. We shall leave tomorrow. Be prepared."
"Yes, Father," Draco replied eagerly. He was really excited. Another trip again with his father to abroad!

"Happy birthday! Happy birthday! Happy birthday to you!"
It was Harry's birthday and he was celebrating it at the Burrows with Sirius, Remus, the Weasleys and the other friends. Mrs. Weasley had done her best for the meal. And the gigantic birthday cake. The smell made his mouth water and he wasn't the only one. Ron had eyed the cake hungrily ever since it was brought out.
"Happy birthday to you!"
The song finally ended with Fred and George singing the last part loudly.
"Well, come on Harry!" Sirius thud his back.
He took deep breath and blew the candles. Everyone applauded.
"Cut the cake!" Ron yelled.
"Ronald Weasley!" Mrs. Weasley hissed.
"What?" Ron said.
Laughing, Harry made the fist cut at the cake. After that everyone was welcomed.
"Hmmm," Ron said after devouring his first bite.
The party was held at the backyard so it could accommodate all the guests. Mrs. Weasley had cooked a feast for them. Of course, Harry had made sure that he paid for every expense.
"You guys will come to Quidditch World Cup right?" Oliver demanded to know. The way he spoke indicated that it was a great crime to not to attend the event.
"Of course," Ron replied between mouthfuls of food.
"That is good." He nodded in satisfaction. "How about the rest of you?"
"Certainly," Fred said.
"Quidditch is the best in the world," George added. "Aside of pranking of course."
Oliver beamed at the answer.
Hermione rolled her eyes. But she refrained from saying anything, knowing that Oliver Wood was a rabid Quidditch fanatic. As fanatic as one could get.
Oliver the proceeded to tell them his about his job as reserve player at Puddlemore United. Ron, Ginny, Seamus, Dean, Alicia, Katie and Angelina listened in rapt attention. Fred and George had slinked away. Probably to test their joke products. Parvati and Lavender were giggling in the background. Since the party was held at night, the garden was illuminated by hundreds of floating candle. Not far from them, Fay Dunbar and Livia Montgomery were busy talking with Neville. Luna, meanwhile, was dancing with her father. Mr. Weasley and Percy were busy discussing ministry laws.
Even the owls didn't miss the occasion. Harry had asked Sirius to conjure owl perch in the backyard so the owls could get out. Hedwig, Hermes, Errol and Sheep were perched there while Pig was flying happily. Sheep was the owl Harry bought as Christmas present for Mr. and Mrs. Weasley. He figured that giving them owl would be useful since Errol was too old for long journeys. The owl actual name was Sheeplodeon, shorted into Sheep. The name, of course, came from Ginny.
"Alright, Harry?" Sirius' voice interrupted him.
"Yeah," he replied. "Just enjoying the party."
The night was perfect. The only one was missing was his husband but then he would meet Lucius later.

On the other side of the world, Lucius Malfoy and his son were staying in Hong Kong. As promised he bought Draco with him. They would leave for Indonesia in a few days. There were several mines for acquisition there. They mostly produced coal and gold. As for Draco, the boy would spend his time at the biggest magical safari park located in the heart of Borneo Island. The diversity of the oldest rainforest in the world was more than enough to provide entertainment for his son while he was busy with his business. After that Draco would join Narcissa in Milan while he and Harry would go to Germany and Greece for their summer holiday before returning to England for the Quidditch World Cup which reminded him that he still had to take care of the matter.
The riots were necessary because it would serve as announcement that Voldemort had returned. Harry was against it at first but after he explained, his spouse finally agreed. As of now, Voldemort was in Wormtail's care and without Nagini's milk, Voldemort was weak enough in his temporary form to do anything sinister. Lucius would only go to their hiding when it was truly necessary, he didn't want to spend any time longer with the snake face and the traitorous rat. Thankfully, everything would end by the end of Harry's fourth year.

Harry spent his holiday playing Quidditch with twins, Ginny and Ron. He also helped George and Fred with their joke creation something Ron didn't understand. Ron preferred to go as far as possible from the twins when they were in their mood since the teen was victim of too many pranks. Hermione and her parents had gone back to Switzerland to continue their holiday but they would be back at the middle of August.
Their joke items production were halted when Mrs. Weasley found out about it. She was angry since Fred and George's OWL weren't as high as she expected. So, Harry finally called for back up, Remus and Sirius. He had told them that in the future the twins had opened a very successful joke shop. Sirius was very interested in the idea and Harry feared for the future, who knew what kind of prank Fred and George would create with Sirius' aid?
"Ow, come on Molly," Sirius said. "Don't be too harsh on them."
Mrs. Weasley glared at him and Remus, too much to Harry's amusement.
"Just look at Remus. He's prankster but he turned out fine. He's even a professor for Merlin's sake!"
"Yeah, Mum!" Fred said.
"Hmmph! I'm pretty sure that Remus here had higher OWLs than both of you combined and he was a Prefect too," Mrs. Weasley said.
"Muuuuum!" Fred and George whined.
But in the end, she finally gave up, between Sirius, Remus, the twins and even Mr. Weasley to persuade her. The only one who disagreed was Percy who thought that they shouldn't waste time for joke.
"It's their talent, Molly!" Sirius said again. "You can't deny it!"
"Fine," she relented at last.
"Yes!" Fred and George danced around the kitchen.
"But I better not see your fake wands again!" Mrs. Weasley threatened.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
The day for him and Lucius were to leave for their business trip plus holiday finally came.
"Are you ready, dear?" his husband questioned.
"Yeah," he replied.
Their first destination was Frankfurt, where the Europe headquarters of their muggle corporation would be located. The global headquarter was located in London with each region having its own headquarters. The American region's headquarter was located in New York, Africa region was located in Johannesburg, South Africa, Japan was located in Tokyo, China was located in Shanghai and Asia Pacific headquarter minus Japan and China was located in Hong Kong.
After the business matter was taken care of, they then spent a few days gallivanting in Frankfurt, both in wizarding and muggle world. In the muggle part, they visited Saint Bartholomew's Cathedral, Old Opera House and of course Zeil for shopping.
Their next destination was Greece since Lucius had villa in Santorini. The island was located in the southern Aegean Sea, about two hundred kilometers southeast from Greece's mainland. The villa was located in the top of a hill with one of the most beautiful scenic views ever. Aside of Santorini, they also ventured to Athens and Thessaloniki. They spent one week there at Greece.
One day before Quidditch World Cup was held, he and Lucius returned to England. After setting at Grimmauld Place, he went to the Burrows. Hermione had come to stay there too.
"Harry! You surprised me!" Mrs. Weasley said when he emerged out from the fireplace.
"Hi, Mrs. Weasley." He greeted her. "How are you?"
"I'm fine, dear." She replied. "How was your holiday?"
"It was amazing!" he replied. Harry knew that she didn't agree with his plan when she heard that he was going to spend two weeks abroad with his boyfriend only. She berated Sirius too for allowing him to go. He understood her thinking so he tried to calm her and said that they went with tour guide and all. That calmed her a bit.
"Ron, Hermione and the others are at the backyard," she told him. "They are playing Quidditch now."
"Thanks, Mrs. Weasley." He walked to the backyards and saw the twins, Ginny, Ron, Bill and Charlie. So, the two eldest Weasleys had come home. Hermione meanwhile was reading book under the tree.
Ginny was the first to see him. "Harry!" she yelled.
Her voice brought attention to him from the others. In a few moments, he was surrounded by the redheads plus one bushy haired girl. Bill and Charlie stood in the background.
"Meet my brothers," Ron said. "Bill and Charlie."
"Hey Harry," Bill said. "I've heard a lot about you."
Charlie was the next to shake his hand. "Hey, Harry. Ron here and the others have told us about your adventure at Hogwarts." He said, smiling.
"I hope that it's a good story," he replied.
Hermione wasted no time to interrogate him the next. "How was Greece?" she asked. "I read about ancient wizarding world in Greece. It's so fascinating!"
"Calm down, Hermione," he said, laughing.
"And how about your boyfriend?" Fred asked.
"Got any action?" George teased.
"Stop that!" Ron said, looking quite green.
Harry ignored him and winked at the twins. "Now, that is a secret, obviously."
Mrs. Weasley, seeing that they already finished playing Quidditch, carrying out tray of iced lemonade with sponge cake. She put in on the table at the backyard which would be used for dinner later. She was about to return to the house but Harry stopped her.
"I have bought souvenirs for all of you," he explained.
"Oh, Harry, you don't have to," Mrs. Weasley said.
"I insist," he replied. He had bought leather belt from Braun Buffel as souvenir from Germany for Mr. Weasley and the boys. As for Mrs. Weasley and the girls, he bought gold earrings from Folli Follie main store in Greece.
"Thank you, Harry," Mrs. Weasley said. "It's very lovely."
"I hope you like it, Mrs. Weasley," he replied.
Bill and Charlie protested at the gift because they only met Harry that day but he insisted and went as far to threaten them so they finally accepted it.
They spent the time talking leisurely. When night came, they had dinner at the backyard. Remus and Sirius also came over for dinner. It was an enjoyable night. Then, Harry, Sirius and Remus bid them goodbye. They needed to sleep early for the match the next day.
As for Harry, he was plotting with Lucius. After all, Quidditch World Cup was an international event. It would be full of Aurors with the highest standard of safety. They couldn't afford to mess up there.
Author's Note:
Hi. Thanks for reading the fic. As usual, please give me reviews, okay? And now, for the explanation…I think Draco need shock therapy first so he would know that not everyone will bow to him because of his father. Harry is civil to his step son of course later. As for Lucius, just because he refused to buy Firebolt for his son that doesn't mean he doesn't care about Draco. Anyway, I think people aren't used to the story where Harry stood in his feet and even could threaten others because mostly of the story portrayed doormat Harry with submissive and weak characterization while the others walked all over him.
