Chapter1: Holly's Return

Captain Holly Short sat in the back of a tear drop shaped shuttle with Foaly, N1, and Qwan. She sighed as she watched Artemis leave. Foaly put a hand on her shoulder. "Don't worry; you'll see him in a few days. He'll have to come see us though," he said. "Do you remember the Retimager Holly?"

"Yes. Why?"

Foaly grinned at her. "I've upgraded it. Now it can show what you saw, not just in pictures, but put the pictures together to recreate what you saw. So it's like watching a movie," the centaur said smiling at his own genius. Holly smiled back at him.

"Cool," she said. "But why does Artemis need to come to us?" She asked Foaly.

"Can you see me, two demons, two elves, a pixie, a dwarf, and a LEP shuttle carrying all the equipment I need to work the Retimager2 on the surface? With all that, someone would be bound to see us." Holly smiled at Foaly. She thought about what he said. "Wait. Two elves? Who is the other elf?"

"The commander will have to come watch me use the Retimager2." He said.

"Who is the commander?" Holly asked. Foaly smiled at her.

"Trouble Kelp," he said. Holly's stomach did a back flip. Trouble is commander, she thought. She smiled at the thought.

"How is Trouble doing as commander?"

"Great. Commander Vinyaya was the one who suggested him to the council. Trouble has been putting things back together since Sool got fired. And he's been helping me with all of this," Foaly said nodding his head to one of the portholes. "He would've come with me to get ya'll but some goblins almost crashed a LEP traffic manga-bike into the hospital." Holly laughed. Foaly smiled at her and started laughing too.

"What's so funny?" Asked N1, who had been looking out the window. Qwan smiled at his apprentice.

"Goblins crashing stuff," he said.

Foaly looked at Holly. "Something is different about you," he said. Holly winked at him. "Your eyes! That's what's different! You have a blue eye. I'm guessing Artemis has a hazel eye." Holly nodded.

"We switched eyes in the time tunnel." Foaly nodded. He looked out the window.

"Ah, here we are. Back in one piece. Well, sort of," Foaly said grinning at Holly. She looked outside the window. Tara looked the same as it had the last time she saw it. The pilot eased the shuttle down and pulled into the shuttle port. Foaly got up and walked outside. Holly undid her safety belt and helped N1 and Qwan with their belts.

"Well, did they show up?" A concerned voice asked. Holly recognized the voice and smiled. She stepped off the shuttle and saw an elf walking up to Foaly. The elf saw Holly and smiled. "Holly?!" He said and ran up to her.

"Trouble?!" Trouble grabbed Holly and hugged her. He sat her down and looked at her ash-stricken face. Trouble took her face in his hands and wiped some of the ash off her face. "Its you. It's really you," he said.

"Of course it's me! Who did you think it was? The Easter bunny?" Trouble laughed and hugged Holly again.

"It's so good to see you," he said after they pulled apart. Holly looked up at him and smiled.

"It's good to see you too," she said. Trouble smiled and noticed Holly's eyes.

"Holly, why do you have a blue eye?"

"My left eye switched with Artemis's left eye in the time tunnel on the trip back." Trouble nodded and noticed N1 and Qwan standing behind Holly. "And who do we have here?" Holly looked behind her and smiled at the demons.

"This is N1 and Qwan." She said.

"Watch out for N1," Foaly said, "Apparently he could fry your brain." Trouble, who had been shaking N1's hand, looked at Foaly and back at N1. "Huh?"

"N1 and Qwan are warlocks," Holly explained to Trouble. "The last two demon warlocks. There is another one, Qweffor, but he couldn't fit in the shuttle with us." Trouble's eyes widened. He looked at the two demon warlocks and back at Holly and back again. Foaly laughed. "I'd love to stay and make sure everything is okay, but I need to get back to the island and watch it sink," he said. "I'll be back in an hour." Foaly got back on the shuttle. The group moved away from the shuttle so it could take off. They watched the shuttle leave. Trouble placed a hand on Holly's shoulder. "Come on. We need to get you to the hospital." He said to her.

"What about N1 and Qwan?"

"They need to stay here and fill out some forms. Don't worry, Commander Vinyaya will stay with them." As soon as he said that, Commander Vinyaya walked over to them. Holly smiled at her. "Hello Commander," she said hugging Vinyaya.

"Hello Holly. I'd love to catch up with you but as Commander Kelp said, I have to help your demon friends with some forms." With that she whisked N1 and Qwan away. Trouble and Holly were left alone in the shuttle port.

"Come on," he said to her, "Lets get you to the hospital." Trouble put his arm around her and led her to a cruiser.

Holly sat on the hospital bed waiting for the medicfairy to come back with her blood work. She had been poked and prodded with needles for the past thirty minutes. Trouble was sitting in a chair in the corner. He yawned.

"I'm sure you're hungry," he said to her. "Do you want to get something to eat after this?" Holly smiled at him.

"Yes. I'm starving." Trouble grinned.

"I guess not eating for three years will do that to you." Holly laughed. Trouble smiled at her. It was good to hear Holly's laugh again. The medicfairy walked into the room.

"Well, everything looks good. You can check-out anytime you want. But I'd like to have someone with you at all times. I don't want something to happen to you because you are by yourself. And I'd also like to see you again in a few weeks, just to make sure you're okay." Holly nodded and jumped off the bed. "Thank you," she said to the fairy. He nodded his head and left the room. Trouble stood up and walked over to Holly. "Let's check-out and get something to eat at Spud's Spud Emporium. Not the best place to eat, I know, but I've got to get back to LEP Plaza. You can sleep in my office if you want, you look exhausted." Holly grinned at him.

"Being awake for three years will do that to you." Trouble laughed and opened the door. They walked to the reception area and checked-out.
