Chapter 2
Below the Earth
Minerva struggled as she was secured to a metal chair with leather straps. She was thrashing, when a voice said, "We won't kill you as fast if you stop struggling." She looked all around and all she saw was darkness.
"That is me you are looking for." The voice steps out of the shadows and revealed itself or herself to Minerva. "I am Opal Koboi. I am coming to take revenge on Artemis Fowl, by destroying and torturing everything he loves. Great plan, isn't it?"
Minerva started, "Shut up, you son of a…" A machine stepped in and injected Minerva with a drug. "We can't have you cussing. That wouldn't be very family-friendly, now would it?"
Haven, The Lower Elements
Holly rang the doorbell, for a third time. Just because Foaly has a fancy house, with a lot of stuff to do, doesn't mean he can't answer the door! She gave up and screamed as loud as she could, "FOALY! LEP! OPEN UP!" Now, if that didn't get his attention, nothing will.
"Holly! Old chum! Why didn't you just ring the doorbell?" Foaly asked. "As a matter of fact, I did. Three times to be exact." Holly retorted. "I know. I heard and didn't answer for a reason. What brings you here on this fine afternoon?"

Fowl Manor
"How stupid could I have been, Butler? How could I have let them take her?" Butler paused, looking at the first fiction book Minerva and him had read together, "I really don't know Artemis. It wasn't your fault. We just need to focus on getting her back from, well, them."
"Good point Butler. Let us plan our attack. I have already contacted Holly, and she promised to get Foaly on our side. So it will just be like the old times."
