Fowl Manor, Dublin
It was a clear night, the kind of night where you could see all the stars and constellations. The wind blew the trees on the Irish country side. Artemis looked out contemplating the recent events that occurred. His mother had come down with a sickness that was only curable with the brain fluid of an silky sifaka lemur which he had killed in a fit of childish rage at the age of ten. So he had enlisted Holly's and No 1's help to go back in time and rescue the lemur from his younger self. Holly had gotten kidnapped by his younger self and he had to rescue her from the extinctionist. Holly had managed to get out ok but Artemis had fallen down a animal pit and discovered Opal was behind the extinctionist. He managed to escape and get back to the future where he was followed by the younger Opal who wanted the lemur for world domination. He flew a jet while Opal chased him thinking he had the lemur 'JayJay' eventually Opal managed to crash the plane and Artemis escaped on to the Nuns which was really the last kraken Artemis had blown up the kraken which had buried Opal. But Opal had managed to escape. Later he discovered his mother had been being controlled by Opal and that she could remember the People so he had to tell her the truth about them. Just then he heard his faerie communicator "Hello" he said "Hey Artemis" it was Holly of course "I was wondering if you could help us on a case were working on?" "Sure Holly, but don't you ever call to say hello once in a while?" "Eh sorry I guess." Artemis was about to say eh wasn't a word but he thought better of it and just continued. " Whats your case about Holly?" "Well, as you know security in Atlantis has doubled since the younger Opal escaped so we were wondering if you might have a idea of where she is at or where she might appear." Artemis was already thinking "My theory is she will most likely break herself out of Atlantis like you think but before that she will most likely pick us off one by one. That way it will be easier to break her self out and conquer the world like she plans." Holly hated when Artemis sounded so calm about these things it really annoyed her "Then shouldn't you be worried about your self?" "I'll be fine we have upped are security since last time she broke in I'm sure I'll be fine." Holly also hated when Artemis thought he was invincible just because he was a genius. "Alright Artemis but you take care." "Alright Holly, I will." the line went dead Artemis walked back to the manor. "Butler I know your following me come out theres no need to be so secretive." Butler said nothing Artemis turned around "Well Artemis I'm surprised you actually went outside with out your body guard aren't you getting a little lax? Ah well it just make my job easier." Artemis could see a small figure in the darkness "Opal Koboi I presume?" Artemis really didn't want to have to deal with her right now, she was like a weed you killed it one and two more came back in its place. "I'm afraid Artemis that this is not a social call." "Oh really Opal I'm so disappointed." Artemis said sarcastically "I'm sure you are Artemis" she said taking it to face value "But as you know I have a world to take over and your obviously in the way so I'm afraid I will have to get rid of you. You know how the saying goes what goes around comes around." and with that she shot him with a neutrino.

Artemis woke up with Opal staring at him through a window. He looked at his finger and saw that she had successfully disarmed him of his communicator. "Now mud boy I know you miss your friends but don't worry they will be joining you soon." she smiled evilly and ate a chocolate truffle for now Artemis was stuck in a corner she thought.

Holly gave a sigh she was stuck doing boring jobs for LEP, she would rather be aboveground doing a real mission rather than catching a few goblins. Just then a message appeared on the screen in her helmet it was Foaly. He looked worried as always "Holly, even though you might not know this I keep track on your's and Artemis communicator just in case they got into the wrong hands." "Get to the point Foaly." "Well Artemis's communicator just died at Fowl Manor, so I checked the manor and hacked his computer to see what was going on..." Holly sighed "Foaly what have I told you about hacking the Fowl's computers?" "Not to, but I looked over the security frame it seems that he was outside talking to someone then a neutrino bolt just comes out of no where and then he disappears, but theres a blur in the security tape where the neutrino bolt came out of so..." Holly interrupted him sounding worried"So you think its Opal" "Yes thats correct." Holly zoned out Artemis was right Opal was going to pick them off one by one.
