ARTEMIS FOWL: A Love Story

Usuanidemonslayer: Hi guys thanks for the reviews I really appreciate them. They encourage me to continue writing even though lately I don't have time. So I was reading through the reviews and a certain one caught my attention. Well Miss. Megan I know that there is a lot of OOCness but it is important for it to be if this story will continue. Now I know that many of you do not like it when they act out of character but it is a fanfic after all. That means that the author can do it whichever way he/she wants it to be and it doesn't really have to stick to the way it goes in the actual book! So please if you don't like it to have so much OOCness then just don't read it. I usually do not care for the bad comments but if you guys don't like it then simply do not read it. I do not mean to be rude but that is the truth. I do accept flames but there are more "gentle" ways of writing one. The way Megan wrote the review could have made the author feel bad. I know I didn't because I'm proud of what I have accomplished. Now enough about this shall we continue the story and before we continue please Ms. Megan, be more gentle while reviewing to other stories. Now lets go and please review hope that this little disclaimer didn't push you guys away so that you don't review (blush) okies so please REVIEW!!!!!

Holly ran through the open door to her right quickly as a monk passed by. Once inside the room she looked around trying to fit in with the shadows. She calmed her breathing and concentrated in finding a way to the jewel. She set down the map Butler had given her the previous day and looked around her to decide which course to take. As she stood and placed the map inside her suit, She climbed on the wall balancing herself so that she would not fall. She hurried through the wall and was now inside the room she had been

looking for the past half hour.

A smile tugged at the corner of her mouth as she stared at the pink jewel that laid in a red cushion inside the glass barrier that surrounded it. Holly looked around the room and at the monks that stood a few feet away from the jewel in a circle around it and sighed. She jumped from the wall and landed in front of one of the monks. "Monk…" She said as the monk glared at her and stood in fighting stance. "who are you?" he asked as the other three monks prepared themselves for a battle. " Please hand over the jewel.." She said hoping that they would submit to her request to help her finish her mission at least and prevent her from killing.

" No…" the monk said lunching himself at her. Holly sighed and stepped aside kicking the monk at the back with her right leg. The monk stumbled before taking hold of two daggers that until that moment had been concealed within his robes. The other monks took his lead each of them taking out their own weapons. She had to work fast before they raised the alarm. With a swift movement she was at the side of one of the monks, dagger to his neck she cut a clean line across his neck. The monk's eyes went blank and he fell forward dead. The others gasped and lunched forward attacking her in every possible way. Every time she dodged another blow came and she would block it all the same. At last, two of the monks raced toward her weapons unsheathed. As they neared her, she jumped in the air doing a flip, as her head went down she threw both gaggers from her hands each going through the monks' chests. As she landed in one knee she managed to throw her last dagger in the direction of the last monk. It hit with a harsh "thud" in the middle of his forehead and he slid along the wall dead. He fell forward and she sighed shaking her head.

Slowly she made her way toward the crystal orb that kept the jewel safe and lifted it making a cloud of dust appeared. She coughed a bit and took hold of the jewel in her hands. The jewel glowed for a few seconds blinding her for a moment as she fell to her knees. "damn…" she muttered and recovered quickly. Placing the jewel within her suit she scanned the room for any other monks and quickly left the room the way she had come without being noticed.

Artemis stared at the door intensely ignoring the odd look Butler was giving him. "Artemis?... Do you think she succeeded?" Butler asked making give him a sharp look.

"are you implying that Holly did something wrong and is now in trouble?" the young master snapped making Butler swallow hard. "n-not at all…." The manservant stuttered. "good.." Artemis replied although he knew that Butler was only as worried about the captain as he was. All of a sudden his mobile phone rang. With a groan he picked up.

"Hello?" he said. In the other end came a sweet and very lovely voice. "Artemis?" it said. "Daisy? Artemis said with a surprised expression. He kept on talking every time saying yes or of course. After about five minutes of talking he hanged up just as Holly came up from behind him. "Done…" She said and held out the jewel to him. "perfect captain, just perfect" Artemis whispered taking hold of the jewel in his hands.

"At last…Shikon No Tama….its mine.." Artemis said as he looked at Butler a glint lighting his eyes.

"Butler….once we get back I need you to prepare a room, Daisy will arrive tomorrow in the afternoon" and with that said he turned and started walking over the hill.
