Authors note: guys still don't own Artemis Fowl or many of the other characters though I do know a rumor for the title of the next book any way now that's over the bit you want to read.

Chapter 10: A Relative in Love

"I could help them out a bit" he muttered to him self

Foaly started typing away at his computer again muttering small words and code signals flashing up on screen every now and then. "Their" he said with a touch of triumph in his voice "all I've got to do is send the signal and…"

Back in Fowl Manor Artemis was in his study writing up each persons part in the plan on to disks each person will read before getting to where ever Holly is. Suddenly his mobile started beeping, he looked at the screen there was a red light flashing but not in the form of numbers. "Butler" he shouted louder than ever before. Butler entered the room with speed wondering what trouble Master Artemis had. "Check that for me just to be sure and find out what it is if it isn't". "Sure Artemis and how exactly is the plan going" he knew Artemis would never tell him anything about the plan until he was ready and when he was he would not have to inquire about it but he found no harm in trying. "You have your task Butler please do such". Butler went away to do his task already knowing that it wasn't what Artemis had wanted him to check it for. So what had happened to Artemis' phone Butler thought.

Mulch arrived an hour or so later with plenty of equipment. "Hey Stinky, Butler, Artemis" he said walking through the door "any improvements in the case". "Just one" Butler piped up "I was just coming to tell you Artemis, your phone has been turned into a locator". "Well then Butler you need to find out who turned my phone into a locator, please go track the signal". I've umm already done that Artemis, Foaly sent it, I assume it is the locating signal for Holly's wings". "oh right, but any good kidnapper would dispose of them first or at least check them for bugs". "Yes but Artemis" Juliet said catching on to the conversation "The first thing Holly would do is take away all weapons and technology and leave them behind it's in her LEP reflexes which also means…" "Ivy wouldn't" Artemis finished with a sense of surprise in his voice (you see Holly did this to him, Makes him feel his emotions, Breaks down the protective box in which he hides… and yet being around Holly, breaking down the protective case and stepping outside of the box makes him feel safer and more secure than ever before). He stood there for a second thinking about all this, about her, he found Motivation and Joy in these thoughts.

"So what can I help you with" Mulch Finally said. "Just go read your part of the plan so you know what your doing and everyone remember we need to keep our heads to our task and not be distracted so tell no one your part of the plan" Artemis said giving Mulch his disk then handing the rest out to the others. "If everything goes the way it should then this plan should not fail although you are not to get cocky so read you part in plan B as

well just to play it safe, pay close attention to them both" Artemis said in that Everything is under control attitude that annoyed Holly so much, sometimes just enough to make her punch him in the jaw. He now unknowingly put his hand up to his face just touching his Jaw, luckily no one noticed,

He slowly walked away climbing what seemed like the many steps it took to reach the second floor. He walked along the corridor and over to the second door on the right. He dropped his fingers onto the keypad punching in the code then carelessly shoving the door open. He went and lay down on his bed, he reached for his laptop which was on his side table and started to try and figure out what Ivy's plan was if holly had been right in saying their was one which she probably was though he would never tell her he had thought that. He brought up Ivy's profile and went through her information:

Criminal: Ivy Lillith Short

Nickname: Poison Ivy

Family: Jane Short (Mother) and Robert Short (Father)

Home Problems: Her Aunt Julie and Uncle Ryan were murdered when she was 10. They were her parent's twins. Her Father disowned her when she was first arrested and convicted. She is the EXACTLY OPPOSITE TO HER COUSIN THE FORMER CAPTAIN, P.D. HOLLY SHORT.

(I guess they put that in capitals because it is important information Artemis thought)

Age of first prison sentence and recent crimes wanted for: She went to prison at the age of 30 elf years (6 human years), she escaped a few days later leaving the prison guard tied up, striped of all his valuables and locked in her cell with the key outside the door and just out of arms length. She is now wanted for numerous crimes including skipping jail, Murder of desk commander and councilor Rodriguez, attempted theft of extremely high security LEP equipment and weaponry, A metal Factory break in stealing £1 billion worth of high velocity metal and theft of: a high security LEP substance, A prize winning beauty contestant fish, A prize winning Pomeranian (a type of dog) and a Zoo's wildest black panther (yes a human zoo) who had recently put one member of staff in intensive care and another in therapy, so the zoo were glad to see the back of it.

"Hold on" Artemis said on the verge of a break through, he minimized the profile and went onto internet search his fingers finding each letter perfectly. "It's just as I thought" he said "and Holly should be fine for now… unless she really does like Trouble like he likes her in which case I'd better tell the others they'll know the truth". He closed up his laptop and hurried down stairs to the study that Butler, Juliet and Mulch were in. Juliet and Mulch were having various competitions while Butler was just stood there watching them. Artemis ran in and called Foaly on his laptop. Foaly answered immediately "I thought you would be finding Holly by now" he said. "Foaly I know what Ivy's plan is and it isn't good". "What is it?" Mulch asked. "Well Foaly the answer was in the file you sent me about Ivy, all the things she stole add up to only one thing… she is going to perform the ritual to turn a human or faerie into a siren but the only thing I cant figure out is to perform it the vital ingredient is the blood of a family member who is in love now Foaly I don't care if Holly swore you to secrecy right now I need to know is she in love with Trouble?" after Artemis had said this he looked at everyone noticing the look of shock, horror and worry on each of their faces (even Butlers and he rarely shows any emotion). "Artemis Holly is in big trouble, you really need to save her quickly now". "So she is in love with trouble then Foaly?" "She loves getting into trouble:" quietly he whispered so Artemis could not hear "she also loves someone whose middle name is trouble" he then said so Artemis could hear "but she does not love trouble". "So what's with the look of shock and horror on every ones faces" Artemis asked completely oblivious. Through a sob Foaly said "because Ivy is about to demolish their only similarity, the fact they are both alive". Foaly couldn't carry on any further and Artemis still looked confused. "Because Holly is in love Arty" Juliet answered. "Who with? Artemis asked with most curiosity. "There is a time for that later, at the moment our dearest friend and partner, Holly Short is in trouble" Foaly said losing his voice behind another sob. "And I personally will do anything to get her back" Mulch said surprising every one in the room. "Well let's go then" Artemis replied. Half an hour later out side an old abandoned house was where the signal lead them. "Everybody know their part of the plans".
