Disclaimer: I do not own any of these characters, Eoin Colfer does.
A/N: Okai** This is a very bad fic but please review! Oh I nearly forgot when it says "**" before the text it means it is thoughts.
Holly tried to open her eyes but they were too weary. She wondered what had caused this drowsiness. She concentrated and tried to remember what had happened. She tried to get use to the bright light by blinking a few times. Her vision was blurry but she could make out a figure some distance away.
"Hello," she said hesitantly.
"You've awaken pretty quickly Captain Short, took you nearly a week to recover from a small dart," Artemis said swiveling his chair to face the fairy.
"It's not a pretty good idea to mess up with the LEP. They'll come for me."
"Yes, of course, they should come for you because that's part of my plan."
"Part of your plan? What plan do you have in mind?"
"Never mind, you will get to know eventually. So how are you feeling? Is the cube comfortable? I prepared it specially for you."
"Oh, how grateful. No I don't find it very comfortable inside this thing you call cube because it is made of glass."
"Of course, I made sure there was no chance of you getting out of there unless I wanted you to."
"I can't believe I am getting outsmarted by a. by a boy. What do you want?"
"You'll get to know later."
"What if I said I want to know now," Holly demanded.
"What if I said I want to tell you later," Artemis said, with a bit of sarcasm in his tone.
Butler came in through the door. "Artemis, Mrs Fowl." Butler hesitated; he didn't think it was a good idea to say anymore in front of the fairy. "I think you should come and have a visit," he continued and made eye contact with Artemis. Artemis understood. He nodded and headed for the door and looked back at Holly then he slammed the door shut.
** I can't believe this, Root's going to kill me. He's going to find out about everything sooner or later. There's no chance of escape here. Holly tapped the glass cube. Yep he's right, absolute no chance of escape. Damn.. This is too perfect. Just too perfect to be true.
Quite a time had passed. Holly was bored, because there was no one to argue with and nothing to do.
Artemis swung the door open, which had given a fright to Holly. Then he slammed the door shut.
"Hi, Artemis. You're back nice to see your back. Things didn't turn out right I guess. Is that why you're all steamed up?" Holly chuckled.
"Captain Short, I am warning you. Do not mess with me when I am in a bad mood."
"Master Artemis, I am warning YOU. Do not mess with fairies because they are aeons too smart for you."
Artemis started running towards Holly and banged on the glass. Holly's eyes widened from shock and the silence that followed seemed to be deafening. Artemis stood still, very still. Holly was going to make a remark about how she could've become deaf but something had stopped her.
Something she hadn't expected. Something that happened rarely.
Holly could see water gathering in the corner of Artemis' eyes. Water that turned out to be tears. Then it hit Holly, the fact that this human too had feelings. The fact that this human was lonely and lost. The fact that this human called Artemis was only a boy as well as a criminal mastermind.
