A.N. This drabble was inspired by the fanfic "The Horrors of Our Love" by CieloCrimisi.

Artemis was walking around the property, far enough from the house not to be seen. Holly Short walked next to him, step by step.

A flicker of movement by the bushes distracted his attention from Holly for a moment.

He saw two ruby red eyes in the shadows, and stopped.

"Arty, what's wrong?" asked Holly.

"Is it just me, or is somebody watching us?"

She looked right at the thing. "There's nobody there."

But Fowl wasn't sure.

A.N. the actual story, while leaving on a semi-cliffhanger and not having been updated for a while, is actually quite good. It's a Twilight/Artemis Fowl crossover, but you need not like Twilight or have (mostly) read the book or watched the movie to understand it.
