Holly: You don't own Artemis Fowl.

Me: You don't either. Eoin Colfer does.

Artemis and Butler stood waiting for Holly and Foaly to come and give them their visas.

"It is very cold out here Butler." Said the boy impatiently.

"Yes but it will be worth it Young Artemis." The burly man said.

A few moments later Holly and Foaly arrived.

"Finally you have arrived." Said an irritable Artemis.

"Well then I guess you don't want you're visas now. Retorted the feisty fairy.

"No! We have waited here for an hour and are not about to go back empty handed." Said Artemis with a slight shiver in his voice as if the sharp February wind was in his voice.

"Fine, fine, don't get snippy with me now or I toss the visas down the chute." Said the irritated centaur.

"Okay let's not get drastic here." Said Butler with a note of urgency in his voice. Foaly smiled knowing that he had a bit more power than the body guard.

"Let's get this over with I think that my toes are getting numb." Said Holly while her teeth chattered to the verge of shattering.

Here take this." Said the pale boy as he offered a coat to her. She took it gratefully and smiled in his direction. Wow he is rather nice right now. I'd better keep an eye on him until they get onto human soil again.

"Are we going to stand here and become icicles or what?" said the boy in the voice that she recognized as his getting impatient.

"We're going now actually so we can avoid the next magma flare and have to wait for even longer." Said Foaly.

"It is nice to be able to feel my appendages again "Said Artemis after they got back to the underground city and went back to the labs with Foaly to start working on what Butler, Holly, and Foaly thought was a waste of time.

"So where will we start on the potion?" Asked Artemis when they had gotten in the lab and put on their coats.

"I thought we should start with a DNA sample from you Artemis since it is your body that the potion will be specific to."

"Sounds good to me." Replied Artemis.

"You're acting strangely right now Mud Boy." Said Foaly.

"As opposed to what? When I acted like a complete jerk when I captured you?" Said Artemis "I can't see that as being a problem unless you preferred me as a pompous idiot?"

After they had gotten the sample that they needed they started trying different concoctions to try out on Artemis.

"Well I found a way to make you grow faster." Said Foaly as he tried a couple of chemicals on a small sample from the one they had duplicated so they didn't have to take more than they needed from Artemis.

"Do you mind being purple?" Said Holly as she tried 2 small vials of a blue and yellow liquid in the test tube with the DNA.

"Why would I want purple skin Holly? Really I thought that you were smarter than something like that." Said Artemis reproachfully.

"Well sorry but I'm just trying to help. "Said Holly defensively.

"Yes Master Artemis you should listen to her she knows what is important." Said Butler. For a man his size to sound like a small frail old monk was slightly surprising to Artemis. Whenever he does that it makes me nervous. He normally doesn't act like this maybe the People are starting to get to him. I'll have to keep an eye on that. Thought the raven-haired boy.

"I'm getting tired could I possibly go to sleep now I really am dead on my feet." Said Foaly after it felt as though they had been working for hours with no prevail.

"Sure Foaly we should all get some sleep and start again in the morning." Said Artemis in a tone that was most unlike him.

"Artemis and Butler are NOT staying with me!" said the tired centaur.

"Fine they can stay with me." Said Holly trying to hide the glee from them.

Once they were back at Holly's apartment Artemis and Butler decided that Artemis would crash on the couch and Butler would be next to the coffee table.

"Good night."

They said to each other as their eyes slid closed and they drifted off into dreamland.
