Hello. Welcome to my second AF fic. (I deleted the first, if you're wondering.) So, this will be a collection of oneshots. Every one will have a different plot, genre and pairing. Today's is Artemis and Holly, enjoy! It's quite cliché, I apologise for that.

WARNING: The following contains cliché, overused, pointless, cheesy fluff. Reader discretion is advised. (Sorry, always wanted to say that.)


"Remember that time when we rescued a lemur? Or the one when we battled demons in Limbo?"

"No. Sorry."

"Nothing at all?" Holly sighed, resting her head in her hands. She had been trying to find a way to get Artemis's memory back for three months now, and he still couldn't remember her, or Opal, or Mulch. He could barely remember his own parents, with just a few foggy memories. They had tried everything to jog his memory. Pictures, simulations, No1 had even come back from the moon early to try and help. All to no avail. Artemis still had no recollection of anything. Holly sighed. "Okay. I'm going to see if anybody's found any cures or anything yet.''

"Alright. I shall see you later then, Captain Short?" That was another thing. He had stopped calling her Holly. She was a stranger to him now. She walked out of the room, down the hall to the Argon Clinic's cafeteria. Dr. Argon, Butler, Mulch, Foaly, No1, Juliet and Artemis's family were sitting at one of the tables.

Holly slid into the vacant seat between Foaly and Beckett. "Got anything?"

The centaur shook his head. "Nope. So far, nobody has found any cure for memory loss. Apparently only time will fix it. You could jog his memory, but we've tried that."

Holly nodded. "Dr. Argon?" She didn't really trust the man, but he was an expert, after all.

The gnome shook his head. "He's right."

Holly sighed again and helped herself to a cheese toastie. "No1?"

"He is. His memory will be restored either by time or maybe, if we managed to recreate an important memory, he might get them all back."

Holly looked up. "Important memories... Anyone got any ideas?"

Butler frowned. "The day he discovered the People? That could work."

"It could. When was that?"

"No idea. I guess he only discovered that they definitely existed that day in Ho-Chi-Min City, but he believed in them long before that. So maybe it mightn't work after all. But maybe if we found that sprite..?''

"No. You gave her her power to fly back. She could be in Southern Argentina for all we know."

Butler sighed. "Okay. Well, I'm going to bed. I'll try and think of any other memories, and get back to you in the morning."

Holly nodded. "Night." She looked around. "Anybody have anything else?"

No1 stood up. "I'm going to bed as well, but I will call Qwan and Qweffor and see if they know anything." The others in the room gradually left as well, until only Holly was left, chewing the crust of her sandwich. She decided to check in on Artemis before leaving. She needed sleep as well. Commander Kelp would kill her of she overslept and was late again. She padded down the dark hall, footsteps echoing in the emptiness. Artemis's room was dark as well. Holly poked her head in. The Mud Boy was asleep, lying on his bed snoring quietly. Holly tiptoed over.

"Why can't you remember?" She bent over and gently touched her lips to his. Artemis didn't react. Holly sighed and walked out.


Holly was awoken at 6:14 am by her phone ringing. She picked it up, groggily typing in her passcode. (0109. Points to anyone who knows why) It was Artemis. She quickly pressed the 'answer' button.

"Holly?" Holly's heart skipped a beat. He hadn't called her that in nine months. "Holly. I remember. Everything."

"H-how?"

"I don't know. I just had a dream. We were in the gorilla cage, and you kissed me. When I woke up, I could remember everything."

Holly was grinning from ear to ear. "I'll be right over. It's nice to have you back."

"It's nice to be back."


Okay, I realise it was short and incredibly cliché, but I felt like writing it. I hope you enjoyed it, please review!
