Artemis Fowl
Enter the Warrior

Part One: The watcher As Artemis returned from St. Barterlys Boarding School a few things crossed his mind, a huge object, the freezing cold, lava and a mysterious figure lurking just outside his conscience. These images had been troubling Artemis for months. Oh, well those images could be dealt with on a rainy day. As soon as Artemis got out of the car a feint rhythm appeared. As Artemis walked to the front door the rhythm appeared again. The sound came from the bushes. When Artemis got toward them he noticed a tiny hole in them! When Artemis stepped through the bushes he noticed a creature. It's a fairy! , Thought Artemis. But, of course fairies couldn't exist, could they? When Artemis went to stand up his head collided with an object! Suddenly the creature noticed him!

" Oh man, you just busted my tunes!" the creature cried indignantly

" Oh I'm sorry.you can talk!" Artemis cried

" Yes now if we could get back to my tunes!"

" Who and what are you?" Artemis asked

" As to what I am I'm a sprite, as to who I am, well people call me Xainiel, my friends call me Xain, and people who I let call me X. You can call me officer!"

Something tingled in a corner of Artemis's mind. " Aren't you a little small for a."

" I'm a LEP you idiot Mudboy!"

All of a sudden Artemis yelled in agony! He felt as though an invisible hand was pulling at his brain. Memories flooded into rightful their places in his mind. A huge freight train, a ton of gold, His mother insane, His father and Butler dying, coming back to life, lava, a centaur, a tiny blue box, and Holly. " Mister Mudboy, are you alright?"

" Yes I'm fine?"

" Good because I'm not going to be able to pay for some new tunes by myself!"

" What about that little noisebox? Besides The Book states that you can't be here!"

" You half right. First The Book says that I can't go in the house. Second I would have to have magic, of which I have none except my wings but they don't count. And that 'little noisebox' whose correct name is a boom box was my only communication to the LEP. It also doubles as a radio!"

All of a sudden the broken boom box made a noise, and then a crackly voice came out! " Xainiel, come in Xainiel, can you hear me?"

" Loud and clear Root, what's the situation?"

" Get down here ASAP. The B'wa Kell are back! And their packing heat!"

" Softnoses?"

" No. I heard one of them say Uzi's and AK's"
