Disclaimer: I do NOT own Artemis Fowl, Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle, or any of CLAMP's works I might be using.

Note: There's two sides of the story, this one is the Artemis Fowl version, the other is the Tsubasa version, and if you want to read it, it's titled: Lost My World Also, I've read up to the recent chapters of TRC, and TTP, so there might be some spoilers.

Prologue

Holly stuck on her helmet and suited up for her mission. With Foaly's voice in her ear, she put on her wings, and walked toward the pod. The flares were about to come up, and it was best to get on now. Getting in, she waited until she got to the top.


"Reports had come in about a new kraken birth. We want you to check it out, you up for it?" Foaly challenged the female officer, knowing for certain that she would.

"Of course, just tell me the location and I'll go." Holly replied, double-checking all her equipment, suit, helmet, and weapons were functioning correctly. Satisfied with everything, she turned her attentions to the Canary Islands, where the rumored new kraken was supposed to be.


"I don't see it, Foaly, could it be your sources are wrong?" Holly teased the centaur, expecting him to rise to the bait and defend himself.

Silence

Anxiously, she called out "Foaly?…Foaly? Are you there? Foaly?" into the microphone, but there was still no sound. Finally after what seemed decades but was really 5 minutes, Foaly came back with startling reports.

"This just doesn't make sense! No fairy technology could make my computers go this crazy, and the Mud Men would dream of having something as high-tech as the fairies."

Puzzled, but not wanting to stay in the air too long, Holly landed on a nearby beach with a forest in the background where no one was around, "Explain Foaly, and in plain Gnomish please."

Controlling himself, Foaly began to explain, "It seems that you were right, there is no kraken, my sources were wrong, but…"

Knowing Foaly and the constant bad situations she always seemed to land in, Holly braced herself for horrible news. "Just spit it out, centaur."

"Check your helmet and suit, watch, and etc. Don't you see anything wrong?"

"No, not really...wait! All the readings are going crazy! The location, time, everything! What's happening Foaly?!" Holly demanded.

"That's what's so crazy! I don't know. All I know is that something around you is making this mess."

"Do you know where this "something might be?" Holly asked, while preparing her Neutrino 2000 to Stun.

"Of course, actually I already got the location. Walk into the forest and you'll come upon a clearing. It should be about starting where you are: 30 paces south and 15 paces west. You can't miss it."

"Alright, I'm going." Holly replied while putting her visor and started vibrating. As she walked toward the location Foaly pointed out for her, she kept an eye on her surrondings. Suddenly, a strange feeling came over her, she felt herself being drawn to something. Lowering her gun, she walked, in a trance to where the attraction led here. Surprisingly, she ended up in a clearing, where in the middle was a stump with...with a case! A strange case! With only a feather inside. The feather was white, and had strange pink markings down the middle of it. It didn't seem like normal feather either, it was pretty big, two times her hand size.

"What kind of bird did you come from?" Holly murmured to herself as she drew closer to the feather. She started to pick it up when Foaly interrupted her thoughts.

"Holly! Are you there Holly?" Foaly's face appeared in her visor, a bit blurred but she could still make out the centaur's face.

"Yeah, I'm here, why?" Holly asked curiously.

"Your readings are fuzzy, did you find the object that's been causing so many problems?" Foaly answered while typing furousisily on his computer.

"Yes, it's a feather and it appears to be in some strange case. Here, I'll try to take a picture of it." Holly adjusted the camera on top of her helmet. Click "Got it?"

"Yeah, strange...I've never seen anything like it. Have you?"

"Nope, do you want me to take it back to the LEP?" Holly asked, firing up her wings.

"That'll be best, don't want the Mud Men to get hold of it." Foaly said, cracking a smile.

"See you back at the office." Holly ended the line.

Little did they know just how much trouble this little feather would bring...
