Hi, this is my first longish FanFiction so I am completely open to criticism or comments in general as they will help me get better and better at writing. I have the idea almost completely figured out so hopefully it will be updated fast but if I get a decent amount of reviews I will be more inclined to update quickly. And now, without further ado, I present the first chapter of my story.

Part 1: New Feelings, Old Plot Twists

"And so," Holly finished," because you sacrificed yourself Opal was finally defeated, leaving Foaly to create your clone. After you were brought up here Foaly left to explain things to your parents with Butler, I don't envy them." The elf smiled at the teen's head; Artemis was just starting to nod off to sleep.

After looking at the alarm clock next to the luxurious bed she saw that recounting their adventures had led to just past three in the morning. "You should have realized that we wouldn't give up on you that easily, it just might take a little while to get you back," Holly quietly said.

At that, Artemis, memories in their proper places (due to Holly recounting their adventures and his enormous intelligence), fell asleep with a true smile on his face.

"Finally I can get a good night sleep too," Holly thought to herself.

Before she left the room of the boy that had constantly chased her good night sleep away for the past months, she crept over and kissed his forehead.

Smiling, Holly alighted from the comforter and walked across the genius's room that had remained empty for far too long. After closing the door Holly padded down the hall in Fowl Manor.

"Hmm," Holly wondered as she paused at the top of the grand stairway, her head tilted to the side slightly as she peered back at her friend's room, " I could have sworn that I just saw the light on in his room, oh well." She summed it up on getting far too little sleep.

As the sun was just wrapping its fingers around Ireland later that morning, Holly found herself sitting at the large dining room table with Butler. He looked much more at ease than he had since Artemis had… taken a leave of absence. The two sat comfortably in silence as they waited for the rest of the household to wake up.

The sound of footsteps interrupted their thoughts. "I'm guessing Juliet," Butler stated.

"Yeah, pony-boy enjoys his "beauty" sleep too much," Holly replied with a smirk.

The mansion was occupied with Foaly, Holly, the Butler siblings, as well as the rest of the Fowl family. However, the newcomer proved both of them wrong.

"Artemis!?" they exclaimed as one!

Butler's eyes quickly moved from his charge's expression (slight embarrassment at his two friends' studying faces), to the evermore surprising change located below his midnight black hair.

"Artemis your eyes are switched again," Butler gasped!

"So it seems," Artemis replied with a mildly interested look on his face.

"Wha...how?"

Artemis, instead of answering his bodyguard's exclamation, turned to look at Holly.

"I knew I had seen sparks," Holly muttered under her breath.

So yeah, I hope you liked the beginning of my story! Review about anything, everything, SOMETHING! Please tell me what you think.

Bye until next time!
