A few things to note about my story,
1st: It WILL jump around from the past to the future in the beginning.
2nd: I personally like the idea of Artemis and holly so please don't kill me for it.
3rd: This takes place after 'Atlantis Complex', before and after 'Artemis Fowl', and stops following the storyline after the "Eternity Code'.
4th: I like GUNDAM allot so later on in the story I may try and mix it in.
5th: I thought of this story while out for one of my many walks so it may not be any good.
6th: This will be the 1st story I publish ANYWHERE, so I don't have ANY experience outside of stories I made up and didn't show to anyone but my parents.
7th: I'm big on dialogue and descriptions.
8th: added in later for : I have posted other story's since this one's creation on http:/artemisfowl. /fanfiction/ . However I'm still working on finishing this one.
Prologue : "The world's 95th time in trouble because of Opal Koboi..."
Artemis fowl: "You know we really should get better locks and stronger walls in those jails."
Holly: "Yeah well even if we did she'd just get out again anyway..."
Artemis: "So what does SHE want this time.. and where are we going"
Holly : "Well she apparently went back in time, and now you are going back to find her. Foaly has a new suit to help you hide your appearance. So you are to follow your past self and make sure that everything goes the way it's supposed to."
Artemis: "Wait back in time again, haven't we already messed with time enough? and I'm sure if you didn't know already things happen when you mess with time, things that are NEVER good happen."
Holly: "We know, but she already went back in time before we could stop her here"
Artemis: "So what you're saying is that, this is an order isn't it holly.."
Holly: "From higher then me, we can't have a random fairy above ground watching you, its better to have you watch yourself from the beginning. Plus I think it's amusing that you will have to watch what you did as a child" *giggling at the thought of this Artemis watching all his actions under her breath*
Artemis: "I heard that Holly! Fine so it's an order and I can't disobey it that doesn't make me like the idea of leaving for so long."
The two of them leave the office and proceed down the corridor to Foalys lab, where Foaly and No. 1 where finishing preparations for what was to be the last time in this version of the world they would see Artemis and his team, though they didn't know it at the time. Farther down the corridor artemis's team was preparing in their normal way, washing their guns, and checking to make sure (without the cameras in the room noticing) that there acorns where safely propped in there containers in case they might need them. One person was especially nervous, this was his first time on a mission, and he was to be under his own fathers command, his name: Julius fowl, a 1/2 elf, 1/2 human turned elf. He was smart, and athletic, but he was no genius and definitely not the most athletic fairy here. But the combination of his abilities, definitely didn't put him on the team, what did that was his ability to, and love of flying. This came from both his parents and made him one of the most capable pilots the LEP had from very early in his life.
Private Orion: "Fowl, any idea where were going with all this equipment? I mean that's ALOT of equipment for just 1 mission. If I didn't know better I'd say that it looks like where leaving for a few years..."
Private Fowl: "Just because I'm the captains son doesn't mean he tells me anything different from the rest of you. Heck he didn't even tell me where to fly us to."
Orion: "So I hear that the commander used to be a mud-man before an accident when he was 18. do you at least know if that's true?"
Private Fowl: "I aint got a D'arviting clue Orion, my father looks elf enough to me. I never really thought to ask him. The only thing I ever really asked him about was why he had 2 different colored eyes, and that he had answered. Saying it came from switching eyes with my mom during a trip through time. I'm still not really convinced about the whole time stream thing though."
Private Orion: "Wouldn't that be nice, going through the time stream. maybe we could get in touch with our past selves and tell them to never sign up for Captain Fowls unit... That guy really doesn't give us any slack, always expecting us to know what he knows. What I wouldn't give to make him be quiet for a few minutes."
Private Fowl: *whispering* "Orion Shut UP"
Private Orion: "Or what you going smack me for making fun of" *Private Fowl points behind him* "Dear" *Private Fowl points behind him again* "Old Dad" *Fowl places his hands over his face in disappointment that his friend didn't get the hint earlier* "He's standing behind me isn't he...?"
Captain Artemis Fowl: *taping on Orions Shoulder* "So Orion I'm and old man am I?" *vampire smile glaring right not the back of Private Orion head*
Private Orion: *Stands up and goes to attention* "No Sir!"
Artemis: "you are a TERRIBLE liar" *moves to the center of the room so everyone can see him, as Holly walks through the door deciding to ignore the comments about her husbands for now* "alright it looks like we got our mission, once again our team will be pursuing a certain criminal of whom i'm sure your all well acquainted with by now"
All members of the team at the same time: "Opal Koboi AGAIN!"
Artemis and Holly at the same time: "So you finally figured it out huh... took you guys long enough to learn to answer that question immediately."
Artemis: We leave in 2 hours, for now were all going to get a new set of suits from foaly. ALL of us, that includes you this time Private fowl"
Private Fowl: "Why? Pilots don't normally get new suits, and I'm perfectly fine with my old one."
Artemis: "You will understand when we are at our destination."
*They all proceed out the door and down to Foaly's lab to get new suits.
*They enter Foaly's lab after a short walk"
Foaly: "So you all decided to finally show up."
Artemis: "So what's with the new suit Faoly?"
rest of the team: "Wait you don't even know why we're getting new suits and you're telling us all to use them too?"
Artemis: "Not my choice, orders from above. In case you're wondering I usually like to use the old suit that I learned with, instead of the new ones. Just with a few upgrades so I don't fall behind. It's just easier that way. In any case, what is different from our old suits Foaly?"
Foaly: "1st I hate you using that old koboi suit, even if it is highly modified Fowl. 2nd these suits allow you to change your appearance without magic. meaning that you could appear as your younger self or to become invisible. This will hopefully allow you to remain invisible for longer amounts of time as it won't be as much of a strain on your body. But becoming invisible drains heavily on the battery so id prefer if you used the disguise rather than the invisibility if you can."
Artemis: "Alright so you got a new toy for us, how about weapons? I REALY don't want to fight Opal with outdates weapons."
Foaly: *Smirks at the comment* "Ohh I got something new for you Fowl" *hands him a neutrino* "hows that?"
Artemis: *Stairs blankly at foaly* "Alright where the new weapon this is quite clearly a neutrino 3000, outdated even for when I joined up."
Foaly: *Smirks again* "Who said it was a neutrino 3000? Thats my newest version of the neutrino 9000, its disguised for you already so no one can determine where your from and it can match into your suit, allowing you to hide it in plain sight."
Artemis: "Ohh so you knew about our mission before I did" *risks a quick glance at Holy who is laughing historically, but silently in the background at the mission*
Foaly: *shrugs* "Maybe, Maybe not. Your wife can be quite persuasive about secrets you know."
Artemis: *Glances back to Holly again* "You told him about this mission but you forgot to tell your husband?"
Holly: *Laughing* "Sorry but reactions like this are exactly why I did it. I mean common you have to admit that this is funny, maybe not to you but definitely funny to me."
Artemis: *still blood red from this embarrassment* "Alright we got our gear, we have our mission, and we got our team. So let's get on that shuttle. I will meet you guys in 1 hour for launch, Private make sure you're ready for us by then"
Private Fowl: "Alright" *leaves the room with his gear*
Artemis: "Dismissed, I will see you all in that shuttle in no more than 1 hour got it!"
Rest of the Team: "Yes Sir!" *All get up leave the room to Artemis, Holly, Foaly, and a hidden No.1*
Artemis: "So how have you been No.1?"
No.1: "fine, we know when you're going back to but we don't know when or where Opal shows up. nor do we know how this will affect the timeline."
Artemis: "Alright, well I have to go Holly, Foaly, I trust you have a plan on how to get a whole shuttle to the past so I'll leave you to it and get ready." *leaves the room*
Foaly: "We do have a plan right?"
No.1: *now it was his time to smirk as he holds up a blueprint clearly stolen from Artemis's storage*
*1 hour later*
*The entire team seated in the shuttle as it is started, and all connections to heaven are cut. a elevator takes them up from the hanger bay of the LEP shuttles (as there shuttle is modified from commercial shuttles it is not placed in the shuttle ports where the possibility of it being stolen is fairly high. it is placed on a elevator with a direct connecting tunnel to the LEP HQ). in front of them the shuttle stops, unsure what to make of the stop Private Fowl decided to ask Artemis.*
Private Fowl: "Hey Captain any idea why we stopped, this is only 1/2 of the way to the shuttle port"
Artemis: "Because we're not going to the shuttle port"
*Private fowl was about to ask where they were going when the wall in front of the shuttle opens and a new tunnel appeared. This time he saw a glowing door on the other side of the room, glowing with magic that is.*
*The shuttle, which was at this point powered up, was transferred to a pair of electromagnetic rails in front of the door. Foaly appeared in a glass window of what looked like a control room to their left. 6 lights appeared from the ceiling, all red. Slowly Private realized Foaly was looking at a keyboard and talking into it. Suddenly 3 of the eight lights flashed greed, now the private decided would be a good time to tell the others to brace.*
Private Fowl: "Everyone hold on it appears as though it's going to be a fast takeoff, as we are on what appears to be a catapult"
*Just as he said this 1 more of the lights turned green, and a countdown from 10 appeared, then the last 2 turned green and the count started*
Private Fowl: "10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, HOLD ON"
*Just then the catapult launched its unsuspecting riders to Mach 2 as they approached the door, which opened and forced them into the timeline. At a set time along the timeline the door appeared and forced them out again (this was not a pleasant feeling for anyone other than Artemis who was used to being in the timeline by now) now in a unsuspecting childhood of one Artemis fowl, this now unregistered shuttle was sent into the world. just as they were about to crash, Private Fowl used his past experiences and prevented them from crashing into the ground, pulling them into a high G turn that resulted in one of the team members passing out, and then shielded the shuttle to prevent being spotted, as they proceeded to the LZ (Landing Zone) now specified by Captain Artemis Fowl.*
*As they finally landed, they all relaxed form this disturbing experience. But there's one problem with relaxing after a stressed time like this, when you do you fall asleep from the tiring experience. In the eyes of the occupants of this shuttle the world slowly left there field of vision as they faded into sleep.
