*Butler walks in with tied up Amy and Dan.*

Artemis: Butler I told you to get them not to tie them up and bring 'em here.

Butler: sorry.

Amy and Dan: Mmmmm (Let us out of here!)

Amy and Dan: M! (Jinx!)

Artemis: M.C. continue please

M.C.: No our deal first.

Artemis: *sighs* Miss Classified owns no one or anything.

Ding dong

Artemis walked to the door and opened it to find Holly, dressed as a human wearing a knit cap brought down to her ears to hide its pointiness (A/N: is that a word?). She wore a white blouse and blue jeans and tried to look most casual as usual.

"I want my uniform not this," she growled.

"You don't want the People exposed now do you?" asked Artemis.

"Artemis I'm lost where's the library?" asked Amy coming into their line of sight she then saw Holly and confusion and niceness came over her. "Hi my name's Amy, who are you?"

"Her name is Holly, dear cousin she'll be staying for project I'm working on." said Artemis answering for Holly. "Where is Dan?" If Dan found out one thing different from Artemis' things Artemis is going to get into big trouble.

"Dan went to find the kitchen. Something about raiding," said Amy. "Oh, and if you suddenly miss a snack and it's not there I apologize in advance. Dan loves to eat."

"Don't worry Amy, Fiske told me and there's a double for everything," explained Artemis.

"Excuse me, but who's Dan?" said Holly. If she were to know the two there's a better chance of avoiding them.

"Dan's my little brother and he pops out everywhere. He explores the whole place for two reasons, the kitchen and to feel comfortable," answered Amy.

Okay, thought Holly. Avoid Dan at all cause.

Suddenly Dan came out eating an apple. "All Artemis has for a snack is apples. Do you have anything else?"

"Sadly no, Dan," answered Artemis.

"Aw," said Dan pouting. "Are you sure?"

"Yes, I'm sure" said Artemis.

"Nooo! I need candy! I can't live without it." cried Dan. Amy just smirked at the amusing display, and Holly raised her eyebrows in surprise because he reminds her of Foaly when the grocery store ran out of carrots and beetle juice.

Artemis sighed in defeat. If he doesn't buy junk food Dan will complain, now if he buys junk food he himself will complain. If I just send Butler to buy junk food, Amy and Dan will relax and the occasional screaming will cease. Thought Artemis, might as well do it so my head will stop pounding. Dan's too annoying I have to talk to Amy about this later.

"Butler, go in town and buy Dan some junk food please!" yelled Artemis. A grin lit up on Dan's face and he happily walked back into the kitchen.

"Amy-," started Artemis.

"Yeah, I know what you're gonna say, how do you survive and control Dan?" said Amy. "Well, smack him on the back of his head several times and ignore him - but not too much – as best as you could, a lot of have people asked that before."

"You don't get occasional headaches?" asked Holly.

"Sometimes, but I survive them," answered Amy.

"That must be a terrible thing you're going through."

"It is, anyway directions to the library please?"

"Down the hall to your left," answered Artemis.

"Thank you, Artemis," said Amy

Amy went down the hallway, and entered the library, and Artemis saw her grin.

"Your cousins are very entertaining, Arty," said Holly, remembering Dan's earlier crisis.

"Dan's very annoying if you ask me or Amy," replied Artemis. "Now tell me how are we supposed to take down Opal?"

"No, no, no, no, no," said Holly. "Tell me first, why are your cousins here?"

"It's a clue hunt thing we do, to make a serum that will make you the most powerful person in the world. We have five branches the cunning Lucians, the strong Tomas, the artistic Janus, the intelligent Ekaterina, and the regular, but mysterious Madrigals the branch where Amy, Dan and I were from. We fought and fought each other for years, but the family has been recently reunited. We now have a new enemy, the Vespers" said Artemis with such distaste. "That's who Amy and Dan are hiding from. Now it's your turn."

"That must be one complicated family." Said Holly, she was rubbing her temples.

"Yes, sadly, yes," said Artemis. "How to capture Opal now, if you please."

"Foaly said, 'Opal will come after the ones Artemis loves and torture him by torturing them.' Then an imaginary light bulb went off, 'Why not use one of them?'"

"NO!" Artemis exclaimed, "Never in the world will any of my loved ones are going out there as bait!"

"Aaaand that's what I said" replied Holly.

Artemis thought this thoroughly he wouldn't even let Amy and Dan out just by hearing that! Wait a minute, Butler is out there!

M.C.: Oh How I love fore shadowing!

Artemis: That isn't really nice you know

Amy and Dan: M! (yeah)

M.C.: Why are Amy and Dan still tied up?
