This is my second fic, it's an Artemis Fowl/Skulduggery Pleasant crossover, some ArtyHolly might develop in later chapters but not for a while.

Disclaimer: I do not own Artemis Fowl or Skulduggery Pleasant (or their Bentleys) *sobs*

"Aha" Muttered the raven haired seventeen year-old as he typed away furiously on his keyboard.

"Any thing I should know Master Artemis?" His six foot tall Eurasian bodyguard enquired, knowing that Artemis never revealed his whole plan to those involved.

"We are going to Haggard, Butler. Please contact Holly, her services may be needed." Butler left the room and called Holly using his fairy communicator. Holly agreed to come, always glad of a reason to get some fresh air.

The teenager stood waiting by the Bentley, his black hair tousled by the wind and his Armani suit was clean and free of creases. After a few moments Butler arrived and stepped into the car, closely followed by a silent Artemis.

For about half an hour they drove without a word until Artemis said, "The thing that puzzles me, is how they kept it so secret all this time."

"Kept what a secret?" Butler said, his eyes still fixed on the road.

"Well, old friend, it seems that there are humans practicing magic. Not at all like fairy magic though,this magic has no rules and, although many have tried to reveal it to non-magical people, it has stayed secret. If my theories are correct," He chuckled, as if to say: of course they are, "Haggard has the most magical energy. Fascinating, really."

"Yes, very." Muttered the giant of a man. "We are here, Holly should be with us shortly."

As soon as the pair stepped out of the Bentley a slight shimmer appeared in the air.

"Hello, Holly." They watched the shimmer turn into a woman of about one metre in height and with mismatched eyes which matched Artemis', one electric blue and one hazel.

"Hi!" She practically yelled as she ran into Butler, trying to hug him and then moving on to Artemis, saying how much he had grown (AN: Not in that weird grandma way though).

The odd party walked to their hotel, Holly shielded as they entered the lobby and Butler talked to the tall woman at the front desk about prices.

They were finally shown to the penthouse suite and Holly jumped onto the sofa, now completely visible in her green LEP jumpsuit. On the wall a plasma TV was mounted and the colour scheme of everything seemed to be red and silver. Behind the red curtains was a view of Haggard, making the futuristic hotel penthouse look very out of place.

"So, magic mudmen, eh?"

"Yes, lots of them. We will be observing a certain detective and his entourage." Artemis said. "He goes by the name of Skulduggery Pleasant. They keep very secretive though, his assistant is a mere girl of sixteen. But there are many who help those two: a tailor, a woman who runs a library of magical books, a teleporter and many more."

"So you want us to find out about all of these humans and why they do what they do?"

"Yes,exactly." Artemis gave his signature vampire smile.

There was a loud knock on the door, Butler opened it and asked if anyone wanted room service.

"One espresso for me Butler."

"Of course, Artemis."

For a few minutes the room was silent as Artemis sipped his coffee.

"Oh yes, Holly in order to find out as much as possible you will not be staying here."

"What do you mean?"

"You will need to stay with Stephanie Edgley, the girl we are investigating."

Holly ran towards Artemis and punched him on the arm. "I hate you."

"I know"

Ok please review good or bad, just no flames! That was really short sorry and probably very OOC I'll try to make the later chapters better. Remember to press that blue button!
