A/N: Thank you to everyone who reviewed and told me that it was 'paid' and
not 'payed'. My brain wasn't working properly at the time. Here's some
more.

Chapter four - Interesting
He had only been back from Diagon Alley a short amount of time when Ben was summoned to his Father's chambers. Lucius had been summoned there as soon as they had arrived back so Lord Voldemort could hear what the Death Eater had to say. Now he was summoned there to either confirm what Lucius had said, or deny it.
The Death Eater that was taking him to his Father's chambers was one that Ben did not recognise, even though he was sure he knew all of them but the newest recruits. Yes, he was probably one of the new recruits.
The unknown Death Eater opened the door, let him in, bowed to the Dark Lord respectfully, and then left.
Ben approached his father cautiously. He could never be too careful, even though he knew the Dark Lord would never raise a hand, or wand, against him.
"Ben, my son," hissed Voldemort in Parcelmouth. They had first discovered he could speak this language when he was very young, and whenever he was spoken in it to by his father he knew they were to have a very private conversation that none would be able to listen in on.
"Yes Father?" replied Ben in the same strange language.
"How did you trip to Diagon Alley go today?"
"As normal Father. We got everything myself and Draco needed to go to Hogwarts, though only one unusual thing happened."
"Go on Ben."
"Well, when I went to get my wand the wand I got is your wand's brother," said Ben observing the look on his Father's face.
"Come here," said Voldemort, his expression unchanged. Ben walked up to him and Voldemort placed a hand under his chin. "That is interesting. You have the only other wand in existence that shares a core from the same phoenix. This could get interesting."
"I know, Father."
"Now, is there anything else?"
"No. Lucius did everything he should have," said Ben.
"Good, good. You may go now."
"Thank you Father," said Ben, leaving.
"But before you go," said Voldemort. "What colour were the sparks that came out of your wand?"
"They were green and gold Father. Is it important?"
"No," said Voldemort, and Ben left. It wasn't important. Not too much at least. If they had been red and gold, then he would have started to worry, but green and gold wasn't too bad. It wasn't too bad at all.
A/N: Sorry! I know it's short, but it's late, and I wanted to get this out as soon as possible. Even though it's short it does have some, if not much significance inside.
Anjela: I got someone who only ever reviews to point out character flaws to review for something else other than character flaws? Yay! *does silly dance around the room* You think this story is interesting? Yay! *does another silly dance* Sorry about the dancing. I'm just being my usual strange self.
Lady Cinnibar: I made you're sensible half run away? Sorry! I was just trying to get people who hadn't reviewed to review. I hope you find your sensible half soon.
Rain Warrior: Thanks for the review. Here's your update. I know the last chapter was rather short, but I couldn't be bothered to look in SS for everything else Ben and Draco would need.
Kendra1117: Thanks. Good plan for his house, but that will almost definitely be in the next chapter, though if not it will be in the one after.
Forgottenone1385: Thanks! I know. There are loads where Snape is Harry's Daddy, but very few where Moldywart (Lol!) is.
Natasha: Hehe! Thanks. About your question, I'm going to say he's not really bothered. Ben doubts it'll affect his life in the long run and he cares about his father so he wouldn't be that unhappy about it. Lots of good reasons why Ben should be in Slytherin, but the Jury's still out. The verdict has not been reached, though I can assure you that he will either be Gryffindor or Slytherin, mainly because he has around the same amount of intelligence and loyalty as the Harry that JK Rowling writes about, just a different amount of courage and ambition.
SycoCallie: Thank you! Lots of people say it's original, though I never get tired of people telling me. Here's the latest update.
Misao4: Don't worry, I plan to keep on writing, just as I plan to be a part- time author when I'm older.
Thank you to all reviewers! You have helped to make this my most popular fic so far, and it's not even the longest! I think I've sorted out what happens in this in my mind now. There is a reason to it, I swear. It's gonna show the power of ... something, and how it can change a person. I'm not gonna say anything else other than please review, no matter whether you like, love, dislike or hate it!
