A/N: I'm uploading a lot, because I want to get as many up as I can before I start school again. School. Blah. Well, enjoy my new chapter. Please read and review! Enjoy!

Foaly had managed to capture Sool's conversation with Opal on CD. Just for good measure, he was also recording Opal's every move. He watched as Opal pulled up a program called "LEP's Destruction". A log in window popped up. She typed in "FoalyWillDie" for her username. Foaly played the next part in slow motion. The password was "Sool'sAFool". Foaly grinned. He knew Opal couldn't resist destroying the LEP. He had proof of both Sool's and Opal's bad intentions.

Artemis' eyes narrowed.

"Still don't recognize me, Irlandskii?" Vassikin asked.

"No, I don't know you at all. I believe I've never crossed paths with you at all," Artemis stated.

"No? I kidnapped your father! Turns out you didn't kill him at all! Then I left for that $5 million. THERE WAS NOTHING THERE! We told the Menidzher, Britva, but he didn't care. All he cares about is money! So he shot my partner, Kamar, and he shot me. But, the bullet landed just on top of my heart. I didn't die. But, I blame you, Fowl, for all of my inconveniences I've had since then. The Mafiya is hunting me," Vassikin shouted.

"So we have crossed paths," Artemis said dryly.

It was true. All that was taped to the flare was a piece of paper. A piece of paper that read: Don't Mess with the Fowls. It was Holly's idea. Artemis sighed. Funny how much trouble that was causing him.

"Sit tight, Fowl. We're going to Moscow," Vassikin said.

Butler, Trouble, Holly, and Mulch were in the car driving to the warehouse where Artemis was supposedly being held. Butler didn't bother driving on the roads. He was going much faster. He took a left and Mulch slammed into the door.

"Take it easy, Mud Man!" Mulch said his face green.

Butler kept driving at his current speed. They were almost there. Butler had an earpiece in his ear connecting him with Foaly. Foaly was giving directions.

"-and there should be a green warehouse in front of you." Foaly finished.

Butler looked and saw the warehouse. And about 300 others.

"Foaly, there's more than one! What number is the warehouse?" Butler asked.

"It's warehouse number 1," Foaly told him.

Butler groaned. They were standing in front of warehouse number 310. The passageway through the warehouses was too narrow for a car. There was one thing left to do. Butler started to run.

"Three people in front of you, Butler," Holly shouted.

Butler grabbed his Sig Sauer and shot them. They were at warehouse 200. They took a left and ran down.

-- -- -- --

Vassikin was indeed in warehouse 1. Artemis was there as well. What Butler, Trouble, Holly, and Mulch didn't know was that someone had already spotted them and Vassikin was preparing to leave. And he was packing a little surprise for them.

"Hurry up! Someone grab this kid and let's move. Finish packing up the bombs and let's go!" Vassikin bellowed. "Move, Fowl."

The warehouses were right next to a river. A perfect way to get away. The river was 20 feet down, so Vassikin took the stairs down to his boat. Vassikin smiled. This was a perfect way to put his chasers off once and for all.

Holly was exhausted. She decided to use her wings. She would go faster that way. She and Trouble flew into the sky toward warehouse 1. They saw the men loading up boats. They looked up and saw Holly and Trouble. They took out their guns and began to fire.

"D'Arvit! We forgot to shield!" Trouble swore. A bullet smashed through Trouble's left wing. It sputtered and he began the long descent toward the ground. Holly dove toward the ground and caught him. She began to fly toward Butler and Mulch. When she reached them she set Trouble down and told Butler what had happened.

"They saw us, and they're preparing to leave!" Holly exclaimed.

Butler increased his speed. When they finally reached the warehouse it was abandoned. Butler looked around.

"I'll check the back. Butler, you take the left side of this building. Toward the front though. And keep your gun at the ready. Holly, you take the right side. Also toward the front though. Take you gun out. Mulch, you keep an eye out for anyone," Trouble told them. He ran toward the back. When he reached the back of the warehouse, he realized how large the building really was. There was only on box left in the building. Trouble jumped to the top of the box. It was enormous. He pried open the top of the box and jumped inside. It was some kind of device. A screen on top of the device read 15 seconds. Trouble stepped back to get out of the box, when the screen started ticking down. There was about 10 seconds left.

"D'Arvit," Trouble whispered.

-- -- -- --

Butler was looking through the warehouse. There was nothing left. He looked toward the center of the building and saw a small black cell phone. He picked it up. A post it note on the phone's screen read, you're dead. Butler opened his mouth. No words came out.

Trouble's voice echoed through the warehouse, "BUTLER! GRAB HOLLY AND MULCH AND GET OUT OF HERE! HURRY!" Time slowed for Butler. He ran toward Holly and grabbed her, and ran out to the doorway and grabbed Mulch and looked around. He noticed the gap next to the warehouse. He ran toward it and looked down. It was a river. Without hesitating, Butler jumped in carrying a squirming elf and a horrendous smelling dwarf. As they splashed into the water, the warehouse exploded.

As soon as they reached the water Holly asked fearfully, "Wait! Where's Trouble?"

-- -- -- --

As soon as Trouble saw the numbers ticking down, he jumped out of the box and ran toward the front of the building screaming, "BUTLER! GRAB HOLLY AND MULCH AND GET OUT OF HERE! HURRY!" Trouble saw Butler grab Holly and Mulch, and then turn. Trouble stopped. He knew there was no way he would reach the front of the building before the bomb exploded. So he sat down and waited to die. Thankfully, he didn't have to wait long.

Artemis looked back and saw the warehouse explode.

"Your friends were in there. I had a man stay behind and tell me when they entered. When he was sure they were in there he called me. Then I gave them 15 seconds to get out. There is no way they could've escaped," Vassikin laughed. Artemis' fingers curled into a fist. This man had killed Butler. He had killed Holly and Mulch. He couldn't take anymore. He turned around and punched Vassikin. Artemis was shocked by the strength in his body. Unfortunately, this gave time to Vassikin to regain the upper hand. Vassikin slammed his fist straight between Artemis' eyes. The boy crumpled without a sound. Vasskin looked back at the smoke rising to the sky to cover the blood red sun. This will be over soon, Vasskin promised himself. I will make sure of it.
