Greetings and Salutations! This is my first Artemis Fowl fic and I do hope you enjoy it! Yes, this has OC but I do love them so!
Diana ducked into an alley and squeezed her small form into a hole in one of the walls to hide from the five guys chasing her. She heard them come into the alley and ask where she had gone. Her breath hitched when one of them looked into the hole and grinned, telling the others he had found her. She tried to burrow farther into the hole but found that she couldn't. She clawed at them when they reached in to pull her out, earning a curse. They finally managed to grab onto her and pull her out, throwing her onto the ground. She scrambled to her feet and faced who she assumed was the leader of this attack, getting into a position she could fight from. He smirked sadistically.
"Got you now bitch." They all lunged at her at once. She tried her best to fight back, hitting a few and scratching at faces, but at five against one, there was no way she was going to actually win. Especially after she had been running around all day. She finally did see an opportunity to break free from them and ran out of the alley, speeding down the street with them after her. She saw the rest of the gang and was about to take off in the other direction when she realized they were attacking someone else. One was a very large man that seemed to be trying to protect a smaller boy. She jumped into the midst of the fight as a few got around the big guy to attack the other. She kicked one in the head on her way over before the five behind her caught up, grabbing her arm and twisting it behind her back. She struggled free, but not before there was a sickening crack as her arm broke. She ignored the pain long enough to keep them at bay until the big guy pulled out a gun and shot one, making the rest scatter after slamming her into the ground. She stayed on the ground as the big guy made sure the smaller one was okay before turning to her. She kept her eyes closed even though she knew they were looking at her. They shot open when her arm was touched.
"Hey! That hurts!"
"So she can speak." She could hear the distaste in the sentence and glared at the boy.
"Apparently you can too, pity it's no use in a fight." she snapped back. He only raised a brow.
"Your name, if you have one." She sat up, making her head spin, but managed to keep up the glare.
"Of course I have a name. Although, I believe it is only polite to give your name when asking for another's. Well Useless Boy?" The boy turned to the big guy.
"Butler, we're leaving."
"Master Artemis, as she did just help you out, it would only be courteous to at least provide her with medical attention."
"Artemis? That's your name?" she smiled tiredly, "Nice to meet you. I'm Diana. So Artemis, what did you do to provoke the Antari Gang?"
"That is none of your concern. Butler, we have a flight to catch."
"Yes sir." They went to a nearby black car and began to get in, Diana watching them leave.
"Where are you headed?" Butler is the one that answered her.
"Back to Ireland."
"Oh! You're from Ireland? That explains a lot. Would you mind terribly if I hitched a ride with you? After all, I did just save you. You owe me." Artemis looked down his nose at her.
"I have no desire to help a common thief."
"Like you're any better. I've heard of you, the great Artemis Fowl. A genius and criminal mastermind. Has a large European butler that doubles as his bodyguard. Did I miss anything Captain Useless?"
"We're leaving." He got into the car and shut the door, Butler looked back at her once more before climbing in as well.
"You can't even pay for a hospital trip? You Gods damned ASSHOLE!" She glared as they drove off before tearing part of her shirt to tie around her major wounds and getting up, "Damn, I need to find a safer place to lie down before the gang comes to find me again." She grinned, "I've heard planes can be very comfortable." she looked around before climbing onto a rooftop and running after the car. By the time she got to the airport, she was limping and lightheaded. She snuck around and looked at the fence, seeing Artemis boarding a plane with Butler. She smiled and found the hole she made last time she was here and squeezed under before speeding over to the plane and sneaking on with the luggage, snagging a few bags of food first. She laid down, using the most expensive looking bag as a pillow. By the time they landed, her bleeding had stopped and she had finished off the food and was parched. She got out as soon as possible and went around to the front. She noticed Artemis got off last and looked over to the last remaining black car waiting there and went to stand by it, soon just leaning against it. She grinned when they froze to stare at her.
"You know, you never did get me any medical care. And I would prefer we go now, before I completely pass out." Her grin left and she closed her eyes, leaning more on the car. She cracked them open when Butler grabbed her.
"Get in the car. In the front." She attempted a nod before getting in and closing her eyes again. As soon as Butler got into the car she looked over at him.
"Did Artemis agree to this? Or are you acting on your own."
"He agreed. How did you get here?"
"I was on the same plane as you. Do you have water?" He shook his head and she closed her eyes again.
"I might throw up on you."
"I would rather you didn't." she smiled slightly.
"Sorry for the trouble I've caused. I'm really not usually that mean…"
"How bad are your injuries?"
"Terrible. I've lost quite a bit of blood, my arm is broken, I have bruises everywhere, and I think I might be bleeding again… Damn… it just stopped too…" She trailed off and Butler spared a glance at her to find her asleep. They arrived at the mansion and Butler opened Artemis' door for him to glare up at him.
"Why didn't you just drop her at the hospital."
"Sorry Artemis, but I know we can help her here too, and she did help you out." Artemis just walked into the mansion and Butler went to get Diana out of the car. He picked her up easily and looked back at the seat with a sigh. He'd have to remember to clean it later. He carried her into a guest bedroom and began to check her over, calling Juliet into the room to help him. The injuries were worse than he thought. By the time he had finished cleaning them all and wrapping them all up, it had been nearly three hours. He washed up quickly and made some tea for Artemis. When he got up there Artemis wouldn't even look at him.
"Well? How is she?" Butler looked up in surprise and Artemis turned to glare at him, "Or even better, how long will she have to stay here?"
"If everything goes smoothly, about two months."
"That long."
"Her arm is broken Artemis."
"I'm sure she can live somewhere else with a broken arm."
"We'll have to wait and see then. Her injuries were terrible. It's astonishing she could move." Butler left then and Artemis continued his current project.
Diana woke up late then next day and panicked, instantly shooting up only to flop back down in pain. Juliet came in a moment later, carrying a small tray. She set it down on the table and looked at her.
"How're you feeling?"
"Like shit. Who're you?"
"Juliet, I'm Butler's sister."
"Ah. Nice to meet you. What the hell happened?"
"Don't you remember?"
"I remember talking to Butler. I'm pretty sure I've been unconscious for the rest of the time. Is that for me?"
"Yeah." Juliet helped her sit up and gave her the tray, "Well, Butler and I patched you up. You're a total mess."
"Are or were?"
"Both. You want some painkillers?" she made a face.
"No. Where's Artemis? I want to talk to him."
"I don't think he wants to talk to you."
"Can you ask? Please Juliet?" She shrugged.
"All right, but I doubt it'll do much good."
"It's worth a shot. Thanks Juliet."
"Yeah, yeah. Finish eating and don't try to stand." Diana grinned.
"Now why would I do that?" Juliet left to go see Artemis, hoping Diana truly wouldn't try.
Juliet sighed when she came back into the room to find Diana on the floor. She picked her up easily and put her back on the bed with a scowl.
"I told you not to try and get up!"
"Which is prolly exactly why I did. Telling me not to do something is like telling someone not to think of the color red. What did you automatically think of?"
"…Red."
"See?" Juliet rolled her eyes.
"Whatever, just get some rest. Artemis won't come talk to you by the way."
"All right, maybe some other time." Juliet shut the door behind her and Diana flopped back down on the bed. A few minutes later and she declared herself officially bored and tried to get up again. She fell down again when Butler opened the door because she had been leaning on the handle.
"Damn it!"
"What are you doing?"
"Laying on the floor obviously."
"You know you weren't supposed to get up." She looked up and pouted.
"But I was bored. Besides, what else am I supposed to do?"
"Lay down, rest, and let your wounds heal?"
"Oh, that sounds like loads of fun. Do you guys have a gym?"
"Not one you're going to use. Come on." He picked her up and put her back on the bed.
"Fine, a pool maybe?"
"You're not going-"
"Why not? Swimming isn't really going to make it worse! Come on Butler!"
"No. Stay in bed. I will make you if necessary." She stuck her tongue out at him and he turned to leave.
"Hey Butler? How old is Artemis?"
"Eighteen, why?"
"Really? He doesn't quite look it. I have to say, I am honestly shocked." Butler shrugged.
"Do you need anything? Hungry?" She nodded.
"Yeah, any chance I could cook?"
"That would require you getting up, so no." She grinned.
"You could always carry me to the kitchen."
"Why do you want to?"
"Because I like to cook, and I never get the chance being a street rat." Butler shook his head.
"No."
"Please?"
"No."
"Pretty please?"
"No."
"Pretty please with cherries?"
"I'm leaving now."
"Pretty please with cherries, whipped, cream, chocolate, or whatever the hell it is you like?" He shut the door behind him. She immediately got back up and left the room, leaning on the wall for support. By the time she had opened twenty doors, she was feeling a little lightheaded again. She opened one last one, saw a bed, and flopped onto it. A few moments later and Butler opened the door. He stared at her for a minute before speaking.
"What are you doing in my room?"
"Laying down. What does it look like?"
"Okay, why are you in my room?"
"Couldn't find the kitchen."
"And?"
"I got tired and this was the last door I opened. Any chance you could just take me to the kitchen? Or to the pool?"
"I don't recall telling you there was a pool."
"It was implied in how you said I couldn't go."
"That's right. I said you couldn't." He picked her up and walked out of his room.
"Hey! You better not be taking me back to my room! I want to go to the kitchen!"
"You can't always get what you want."
"Says the guy working for a spoiled rich kid! I know that damn it! I live on the streets, remember? You think that was my choice? Asshole!"
"That wasn't what I meant. But you are still injured, and still need rest."
"I'll be fine. Kitchen please."
"I believe I said no."
"Put me down then."
"Again, no."
"HELP! RAPE!" Butler nearly dropped her in his shock. Juliet came running down the hall a moment later, stopping when she saw Butler glaring at Diana.
"Please don't tell me you just yelled rape at my brother."
"Then I won't."
"Why are you even out of your room?"
"I was looking for the kitchen."
"Juliet, take her back to her room." Juliet rolled her eyes.
"Fine."
"No! I wanna go to the kitchen!" she whined.
"Stop acting like a little kid, even if you are one."
"Hey! I'm no kid!"
"How old are you then?"
"I'm almost eighteen! Assholes." She muttered the last part. Butler rubbed his temple.
"You need to take her back to her room and lock her in." Butler left and Juliet grabbed her before she could take off.
"Oh no you don't. Come on."
"Noooo!" She was nearly thrown back onto the bed before the door was shut and she heard the lock falling into place. She smirked and got back up, stretching her legs before looking around for possible exits. She opened the window only to find they were on the third floor, and as much as she would like to, she was sure her body would protest to that fall. She looked up and sighed. all the windows above her were shut, and probably locked. She shut the window again and pulled some lock picks from her hair before kneeling at the door and listening carefully. It took her less than a minute to pick the lock and head down the hall. She finally found some stairs and stared at them for a while, doing a quick body check to see if she could make it down. She finally decided against it and jumped onto the railing, sliding down happily. She landed roughly and looked around before going down another banister. She was now on the main floor. She headed off in what she hoped to be the direction of the kitchen. If not, well the pool would work too. She ended up in the gym and frowned, looking around to where the pool would be. After all, the pool and gym are normally near each other. She scowled after she had wandered around a bit more. Apparently there was nothing normal about this place. She kept walking until she ran into Butler again. She tried to run away, but he caught her arm.
"I will break your other arm if you try to run off. Now, how did you get here."
"Hallway, stairs, stairs, hallway, gym, here."
"You were locked in your room." He sounded exasperated.
"I picked the lock obviously."
"No one's ever been able to pick those locks before."
"Well they obviously never tried them out on me before. Can you let go of my arm now? That hurts." He let her go and sighed.
"Let me guess. You were trying to find the kitchen."
"Well, it was either that or the pool."
"Fine." He threw her over his shoulder and walked away.
"Hey! Where are you taking me now! I refuse to stay-"
"The kitchen. I'm getting sick of you wandering off."
"Really? You mean it?" She grinned and attempted to hug his back with her usable arm.
"Maybe we'll be able to keep an eye on you." When they finally got there, he plopped her into a chair and folded his arms across his chest.
"What?"
"Well? What were you going to make?"
"That depends on what I have to use. Hey, does Artemis like chocolate?"
"Not really. Why?"
"Is he just not a fan of sweets?"
"Are you going to tell me why?"
"Maybe."
"No, he's not extremely fond of them."
"Hmm… How about mint or lemon flavors? Would that work?"
"I want to know why."
"And I want to know if he likes mint or lemon." They glared at each other before Butler sighed.
"You don't give up, do you?" She smiled.
"Nope. If I did that, I'd have been dead long ago."
"Yes, he likes mint or lemon." She grinned.
"Great! Now, would you mind leaving? I'm going to cook something, and I want it to be a surprise. Don't worry, I won't destroy your kitchen." She looked up at him hopefully and he cautiously agreed, leaving the kitchen and going to see if Artemis needed anything. He hadn't even fully opened the door when the biting remark came.
"Why did you let her into the kitchen? As I recall, we were just going to help her by providing medical attention, not fulfilling her whims." Butler sighed as Artemis watched her on the screen.
"She wouldn't stay in her room."
"Then make her. Tie her to the bed if necessary."
"There's no harm in letting her cook something."
"If she is cooking something for me, it could very well be poisoned."
"I'm sure it will be fine. After all, you can watch and make sure of it." Artemis glared at him.
"That's not the point."
"It never is. Let her be Artemis." Butler left after that and Artemis turned back to the screen to see her smile at the camera and wave before covering it up. He glared at the now dark screen before cycling through the cameras that would show her, only to find all of them had been either covered up or disabled. He leaned back in the chair.
"It looks like she learned something being a thief. Good, I needed a new challenge." An hour later and Diana let Butler and Juliet back into the kitchen. If it wasn't for the three dozen cupcakes lining the counters, they would've wondered if she had done anything.
"Sorry. I wasted some of your food. I messed up the first two batches. Here, come try them and tell me what you think. And before you ask, no, they're not poisoned. I know you've been talking to Artemis and he has to be upset about the cameras." Juliet grinned.
"Why did you cover them?"
"I don't like being watched. Street rat, remember?" Juliet laughed and grabbed a cupcake, hesitating when Butler didn't.
"You can't really think they're poisoned!" Diana grabbed one at random and bit into it with a smile.
"Perfect. I was worried they wouldn't turn out quite right. It's been ages since I cooked anything, let alone cupcakes."
"Why did you make cupcakes? You kept asking if Artemis liked sweets, and you know he doesn't"
"Because he likes mint and lemon. And I made sure that the cupcakes weren't that sweet. Hence why I messed up the first two batches." Juliet instantly bit into one and grinned.
"It's good. Come on Butler, try one."
"If I didn't know better, I would think the two of you are ganging up on me." He grabbed a cupcake as they both grinned. He just rolled his eyes as he took a bite.
"Hey Juliet, can you show me to Artemis' room?"
"Why?"
"I was going to bring him a few."
"We could do that." Diana smiled.
"I don't doubt you, but I would like to. As I made some for him, I would like to be the one to bring some to him."
"Okay, let's go."
"Juliet, Master Artemis-"
"He'll be fine. Come on, this way." Diana smiled and grabbed a few of the cupcakes, putting them on a plate before following Juliet. Butler sighed and began to uncover the cameras.
"Artemis, she's going up there to see you." Artemis smirked at the screen before turning to face the door when Diana knocked. Juliet left as soon as Diana opened the door and slipped in.
"What do you want now?"
"So cold, and here I had brought you a treat."
"I don't want it." She set the plate down.
"Well it's there for when you do. She looked into the screens, "So you have cameras set up everywhere huh? Stalker-like much?"
"Get out."
"No. And before you get all pissed let me talk. I came up here so I could apologize. I wasn't trying to be that mean to you last time, but I wasn't quite myself. I was in pain and had been running from the Antari all day. I truly am sorry for my anger."
"Is that why you made these?" She grinned slightly.
"Maybe, but I did enjoy cooking regardless. You really should try one. They're not that sweet." Artemis turned away again.
"Perhaps. You should rest, tomorrow might be difficult for you." She smirked.
"And just why is that? Are you testing me while I'm still injured?"
"Of course. Now leave."
"I will as soon as you try a cupcake."
"You're in no position to be telling me what to do."
"Let me copy and paste that sentence back to you. Try one." He sighed and grabbed one.
"Fine." He bit into it, swallowed and looked at her, "Are you going to leave now?" She twitched.
"Did you like it?"
"It is acceptable." She rolled her eyes.
"Whatever. There are two more there for you, and more in the kitchen if you want some." She left and headed down the hall back to her room.
The next morning she sat up and looked around, noticing there were more cameras around her room. She smiled and waved.
"Do I get breakfast sent to me? I would hate to upset Butler and Juliet again by leaving the room." Artemis smirked at the screen as Butler shook his head.
"I'll guard the door now."
"Good." By the time Butler had gotten to her room, the door was all ready ajar and Artemis was calling him. She had all ready made it to the kitchen and had just finished picking the lock by the time Butler got there.
"Hey!" She grinned at him and shut the door. She grabbed a few of her cupcakes and stuffed them in a bag before the door got opened and Butler came in. She ducked under a table and slid under him before locking Butler in. She sped back to her room and locked herself back in, sitting on the bed and uncovering the cameras.
"Next time Artemis. You should leave me some food to start with. Now, did you want me to keep escaping the room? Is that my so-called test? I don't want to disappoint you after all…" She smirked and covered the cameras back up before peeking under the door. Butler was stationed there, so she went to the window only to find it was barred. She grinned and smashed the glass, squeezing herself out through the bars and climbing up. She broke another window to get in and sped down the hall. She stopped in front of Artemis' door and smiled before going in.
"I think these little tests are useless."
"Your window was barred."
"I could fit through."
"You can't be that small, and you have a broken arm."
"I'm a small person naturally and I hardly eat. I am also extremely flexible." Artemis nodded.
"Well, as it seems we have a thief in the Manor that is intent on harming me, Juliet and Butler are on full alert. I hope you can do everything you want to. They're on their way." She glared at him before smirking.
"And if I refuse to participate in these games of yours? After all, there seems to be nothing in them for me."
"Then you might not survive. I would be surprised if you were able to steal anything from here though. And I'm sure you're the type that likes to say you can, and I don't think you can." The door flew open and Butler came in just in time to see her crash through the window. As she fell she smiled and mouthed her sentence to them.
"You're on. Prepare to lose." She grabbed onto a ledge halfway down and pulled herself onto it before looking into the room to see Juliet.
"Damn." She dropped down again, flipping so she would land on her feet and looked around, paling.
"There are lasers in the yard?" She jumped to miss the first wave and smashed a camera in the process, "I hope that was expensive." She broke a few of the lasers and managed to get in through another window. She looked up to see Butler coming down the stairs with one of his guns pulled and jumped behind a statue to avoid the first shot. Butler had good aim and she had to duck her head to miss the shattered statue pieces. She rolled out of the way and went into the kitchen, grabbing a few knives and taking out the cameras. She pulled the knives out of the walls and tied them to herself, wrapping a few up and hiding them in her hair.
"He cheats. I don't even have my shoes right now. And I liked those boots damn it." She cursed as the doors opened and fled, tossing a knife in the general direction of the doors. She went through a side door and ended up in a smaller hallway. She looked around cautiously before making sure the door was barred the best it could be and hugging the wall as she made her way down the hall. She took out all the cameras, leaping on the walls to retrieve the knives once thrown. She was very careful to not step in the middle of the hall. Unfortunately, there were traps set at the edges as well. She ducked and rolled, but a hole opened in the floor and she couldn't get over it without being hit by the laser grid. She scratched at the walls to at least slow her fall until she finally fell into about a foot of water, her hand and broken arm pulsing in pain. She looked up in time to see the hole close up and cursed. She looked around in the near total darkness and froze when she heard a noise. Listening more closely, she figured it wasn't alive, but that didn't stop it from moving towards her. Suddenly poles flew up from the ground around her and her eyes widened as she tried to climb the slippery walls. She managed to grab onto a crack in the wall and hoist herself out of the water a second before it lit up from the electrical currents. She looked up at the wall in a panic when she felt her hand start to slip. Her feet scrambled to find a foothold, but to no luck. She fell back into the water in time to feel an aftershock as the poles began to recharge for a second current. She ran, dragging her hand against the wall to guide her.
"There are no bodies down here, not even of rats. Which means they must clean the place out. Which also means there has to be an exit." She jumped back onto the wall as another current lit the water. She glared at the ceiling as the current died and began to run again, soon reaching a dead-end. She looked around and sighed before climbing onto the wall again for the next current. They seemed to be coming sooner, but she didn't mind. She needed the light to look for an exit now. She carefully scrutinized the walls before the current died out and she dropped down again, shaking her head. She ran her fingers gently over the wall she had studied before climbing it. On the other wall, not too far down, she saw something that looked slightly out of place. As soon as the current died, she went over to it and grinned. There, barely noticeable even running her fingers slowly over it, was a door. She sighed in relief before climbing onto the wall again. As soon as that current passed, she swiftly picked the lock and opened the door, immediately punching Juliet in the face and dodging past her, running away as fast as she possibly could. She took out another camera and ran back to Artemis' room. Butler was waiting for her and she glared at him before ramming her small frame into him, twisting around to get on his back. She kicked him away, using his weight and twisting to her advantage to put him on the floor, if only for a few seconds. He had his gun out and was shooting by the time she could get in the door. As soon as the door closed she punched Artemis and tied him up, keeping a knife to his throat as Butler came back in. He froze at the sight before him. Artemis didn't move, not having planned for her to try and attack him directly, and she seemed almost desperate enough to kill him at the moment. Butler kept the gun pointed at her as he watched her every move. She did the same, tightening her hold on Artemis when he shifted.
"Let him go."
"Throw the gun away."
"I will kill you." She grinned sadistically.
"Go for it, but be prepared to lose your charge as well." Butler didn't doubt it, he knew those eyes. They kept watching each other for a few minutes before Artemis tried to speak, only to have the knife pressed harder to his throat, creating a small trickle of blood. He felt her hands shaking slightly and began to speak, quietly and slowly.
"Put the knife down Diana. Butler, put the gun away." Neither of them moved and Artemis narrowed his eyes, "Butler. Put the gun away."
"That would be unwise Artemis."
"Now Butler. Diana, you win, now let me go." Her hold tightened in response.
"Not until the gun is gone and he relaxes."
"He will kill you Diana."
"Do you honestly think that will stop me from slicing your throat?"
"You're no killer."
"You wouldn't know that. I'll do anything I have to."
"This isn't a way to save yourself."
"Neither is putting down the knife. At least this way, I won't be the only one losing." Her gaze never faltered as she spoke and she slightly twitched at every move Butler would make. Finally, Butler slowly put the gun away and raised his hands slightly. She didn't move for a moment before slowly pulling the knife away from Artemis' throat and cutting the ties. She jumped up and warily watched the both of them.
"I told you that you won. No one's going to attack you now. Although, you did fail to steal anything." She grinned and put the knife away, pulling something from her shirt.
"The knives don't count apparently, but I'm sure this does." She held up Artemis' watch with a smirk.
"When did you get that?"
"When Butler came in." She gave it back to him and sighed.
"So you're done with your sick games? I can sleep now?" She didn't give them a chance to answer as she passed out, falling onto the floor. They heard a soft 'crack' as she landed and slightly winced.
"She broke another bone." Butler nodded and carefully picked her up.
"You shouldn't have done all of this Artemis." He turned and left. Artemis looked at the door before turning back to the screens to record which cameras needed replaced.
"I know…" When Butler came back Artemis had him go pick up the cameras he had ordered. He sighed as Butler left and got up, heading to Diana's room. He opened the door silently and quickly slipped inside. He looked over to her still form, noting the fresh bandages wrapped around her. He pulled up a chair and sat next to her, watching her sleep. She looked far different from earlier when she had been talking to him, and when she had been fighting for her life. She stirred and opened her eyes slowly to stare at him.
"Artemis? What do you want?"
"Nothing. I had to be sure those little tests hadn't completely outdone you."
"Tch. Somehow, I'm not surprised." Artemis raised a brow before handing her a bag. She just glared at him.
"I made those for you, and now you're giving them back? Were they that terrible? Or was it the fact that I made them?" She spat out and he glared back at her.
"No. I thought you would be hungry, and Butler isn't here." She turned her head away.
"I don't want them."
"You need to eat."
"I'll be fine, I assure you. Now why don't you be a good boy and go play chess or whatever it is people like you do for fun other than tormenting people." Artemis paused.
"Would it make you feel better if I told you I came here to apologize?"
"No. Lying doesn't make me feel better at all."
"I wasn't lying. I apologize, it was foolish of me to do that to you."
"Only because I almost killed you."
"And because it would be ironic to kill someone whose life we had saved."
"I believe the same would go for me. I wasn't actually going to kill you by the way. That's not my style."
"It didn't seem that way." She shrugged.
"Good to know I can still lie so smoothly." Artemis smirked.
"Although, that would never work again now."
"If you're implying that you have more of those games planned, I'm going to smack you."
"You're lying."
"I've all ready hit you once today." She turned to glare at him.
"And if I was implying-?" She knocked him off the chair and painfully sat up.
"For a genius, you're quite an idiot." She grinned and helped him up, "Next game to play better be safer, more along the lines of chess than electric tunnels." He smirked again.
"Now that, you will lose." She smiled at him before laying back down.
"Ouch, smiling hurts."
"Out of practice?"
"No, an encounter with a twisted 18 year old." He smiled slightly.
"Get some rest. We have to fix the damage you caused now." She grinned before wincing.
"I hope I made it difficult for you."
"You did, but there's been worse damage." He left and she sighed before closing her eyes.
And to all my lovely readers that have been anxiously waiting for me to update... I WILL SOON! I PROMISE! T.T I've just been too lazy to actually post and most of them and others I haven't been typing on... ANYWAY! Please review, they make me so very happy. Oh, and I have finished writing this story, I just don't want to post it all at once. Until next time then!
