Chapter 1 – Stuck with you

Note: Words that are written like this are thoughts.

Artemis POV

'Artemis, are you coming?' Holly yelled.

'She should be here any minute!'

Artemis sighed. He and Butler where sitting in the living room. Holly had been looking forward to this throughout the week. Here niece was coming to visit her, and after that she would stay in the Fowl-mansion. Her parents had recently died and now she needed a place to stay. Holly had come up with the idea that she could stay her. And he didn't like it. But he promised Holly, so he just had to bear with it. He didn't know much about the girl. Her name was Shayla and she was 14, only half a year younger then he was. Holly also told him her birthday, but he already forgot it. Butler got up from the couch and walked to the door. Artemis followed.

'Why did I agree with Holly again?' he asked Butler.

'Because she bugged until you said "yes".'

He sighed again. It couldn't get much worse than this. He really didn't have time to play for babysitter. Holly was walking up and down the hall. Saying things as: 'I'm sure you're going to like her. She's really smart'. He doubted it. Suddenly a question popped in his head.

'Holly, to which school does she go?'

'She doesn't go to school.'

He raised an eyebrow.

'How do you mean she doesn't go to school?'

'Well,' Holly said, 'she already finished high school and she has a diploma for Harvard law school'.

This could be more interesting then I thought.

After a while, a car stopped at the front door. Holly ran to the window.

'There she is! Come on Artemis, I want to introduce you to her.'

I've never seen Holly so exited. Well, the quicker I follow, the sooner this is over.

He walked with her to the door and waited until a girl came out of the car. Holly started waving and shouting at her.

Holly, please stop it. This is embarrassing.

The girl was about his height. She had long hair. Really long hair, it came down to her waist. Her hair was curly and it was a foxy brown colour. She was wearing a black top and jeans. Nothing special. She was standing with her back towards him. When she turned around, he could tell by the look on her face that she didn't wanted to be here.

She's actually kind of cute. No… I didn't just think that. There is no time for thoughts like that.

Next to him, Holly was still waving and shouting. The girl walked towards them and Holly embraced her.

'Aunt Holly, you're squeezing me. I can't breath,' she said.

Her voice sounded a bit like the ringing of bells. Holly let go of her and shook her hand.

'I'm sorry Shayla, but I haven't seen you in such a long time. I'm sorry about you're parents. I never was very close with my brother, but it must have been terrible for you.'

At the mention of her parents there seemed to fall a shadow over her face. That was just for a second and then she seemed fine. She still looked upset, but she was already looking like that from the moment she got here.

'Shayla, this is Artemis. You're going to be staying in one house from now one,' Holly said with a smile on her face.

Artemis could swear he heard her mutter 'great', but that probably just was his imagination.

He shook her hand.

'Artemis Fowl, pleased to meet you', he said as politely as he could.

'Shayla Allen, pleased to meet you to'

Then he looked at her eyes. He was just slightly surprised to see that they where purple with gold en black sparks.

She looks nice. I wonder if we could get along. Not that I have time for getting along.

He let go of her hand and she immediately backed of. Holly introduced her to Butler and then they al went inside. Holly was talking about…; well he actually didn't know what she was talking about, because he wasn't really paying attention. He was thinking about a project he was working on. When they where all seated in the living room, Butler went to get some thee. Holly was still talking, and Shayla looked really annoyed.

Holly does talk a lot today. She never does that usually. Thank god she's going to leave by the end of the evening.

Butler came in with the thee. From there it went really quick. Artemis was stretching out on the couch. Butler tripped over his feet and the tray with thee flew trough the air. Holly tried to catch the tray, in which she failed (duh). The cups flew off the tray but stopped before they could hit the floor. They where just hanging in the air. Then they flew back on the tray and the tray landed on the table. Artemis looked here way quick enough to see Shayla putting her hand down.

Then she isn't a human. She doesn't look like a fairy either. Then she must be an elf.

(A/N There is a huge difference between fairy's and elves. For example elves look more like humans and they can use more and stronger magic. Maybe that isn't true, but this my fic and if say that it is like that, then I'm going to use it like this in my story) Figures, she's Holly's niece. I would have been more surprised if she didn't have any magical powers. That might be useful.

He didn't let the others see he was slightly surprised.

'I'm sorry Butler. I will be more careful next time,' was all he said.

'It's nothing to worry about. Nothing happened,' Butler assured him.

The rest of the afternoon went by without anything else happened. Holly was talking most of the time, Artemis sometimes nodded politely, Butler was… whatever it was that he did in his spare time and Shayla was looking she didn't want to be here, which probably was the case. When it was finally time for Holly to leave, Artemis almost let out a sigh of relieve. They walked Holly to the door and waved her goodbye.

'She does talk a lot,' Artemis said.

'Yes,' was al she said before she turned around and walked away into the garden.

Artemis looked at the spot at the horizon where Holly disappeared, sighed and turned around to follow Shayla.

'Are you angry at me?' Artemis asked.

'No' was the only reply he got.

'At least you don't talk as much as Holly.'

She stopped walking and sighed.

'Look Mud-boy, I know you don't want me to be here, so stop being nice to me. I don't want to be here either, but I promised Holly I would stay here and not try to run away. I'm doing this for Aunt Holly. Until I find some place to live, I'm stuck here with you. So, please, if you don't want me to be here then don't try to be nice to me. Everyone was being nice to me after my parents died. Everyone was telling how sorry they, but they didn't care for me or my parents. They only cared for the inheritance. I'm sick of people being nice to me.'

With those words she turned around and walked back towards the house, leaving Artemis by himself. After a while a smile spread across his face.

'That is an interesting point of view.'

He made his way back to the house, still smiling about what she had said.

A/N: That was chapter one. I think you have to wait a while for chapter 2 because I don't have much time to write. Please leave a review, even if you thought it sucked. If you see any spell- or grammar mistakes, please tell me and I will change them. Anyway, tell me what you think.
