As Artemis awoke that dark and cloudy morning, he couldn't help but feel excited- He Artemis Fowl was going to get married to whom he though must be the most beautiful woman in the world: Jacqueline Paula Benet, second only to… he couldn't help but help a pang of sadness as he thought of Holly. Holly the mother of his beautiful twin daughters Christine and Kara who were now 7 and hadn't seen their mother since they were days old; didn't know she was- it still hurt to even think the word after 7 years it still stung to think of Holly, of how she just packed up and left one day, without a note or a goodbye just completely cutting all contact with Haven.
As he attempted to pull himself together his brother Beckett and Myles burst into the room looking handsome at 18 in their dapper tuxedos and bowties… he had been 18 when holly gave birth and 18 when she left as well.
Trying to shove the sadness out of his mind he quickly thought of his bride-to-be Jacqueline. Ah Jacqueline with her beautiful long straight blonde hair, her deep dark mystifying eyes, her- tuxedo? Suddenly he realized the both Myles and Beckett were shaking him trying to get him out of his trancelike state
"Artemis? Artemis are you there? Hello?" said Beckett
"Huh? What? Oh no did I miss the wedding?" said a still dazed Artemis
"No, but you are if you're just going to sit there! Hurry up or Jackie's gonna kill you!" said a now annoyed Myles "So hurry up! Chop, Chop!"
As they piled into the several limousines the Fowl family had rented for the wedding, Artemis just couldn't get the feeling something bad was going to happen.
