On the Wings of a Phoenix

By: Sunset

Artemis is 25, married and is always melancholy, perhaps because Both Butler and Juliet are dead, or maybe because people are trying to constantly kill him. Then one day he has a dream that will change everything…

Disclaimer: I do not own Artemis, Butler, Juliet or Holly. If I did I'd be rich by now

On the Wings of a Phoenix- Dreams come True part one

The best way to keep love is to give it wings.

Don't dismiss your dreams. To be without dreams is to be without hope…

A Creed to Live By- by: Nancye Sims

 Falling, falling, falling. Faster, faster, faster. Artemis was falling as fast as a rock. He felt helpless .Closer and closer to the bottom of a endless pit. Closer to death, closer, close, there, SLAT!! Artemis hit the ground with a hard thump, breaking all bones in his body, blanketing him with his own blood. In a way he was glad, not one more melancholy day would pass by him, his life was over. Death was only and inch away from him now, but he welcomed it. All of a sudden, Artemis body was healed; the blood was gone, open wounds closed. Then he felt himself being lifted off the ground, carried to safety .Up, up and up his body was carried till he was on stable ground. He looked up haven ward and saw a new dawn: dusk had past away. He turned arould to meet his savor in the eye and saw a golden Phoenix transform into……..

"Artemis wake up" said his wife Ashley, a shot lady with blue hair and pink, small, eyes.

"What" grumble Artemis. He was having the strangest dream.

"We're going to the mall, that's what" said Ashley

"What do you mean? You're going to the mall and not I." Artemis pulled the cover over his head but Ashley pushed it off of him.

    "You're going to the mall weather you like it or not Artemis!" yelled Ashley, her curly hair jigged wildly and she looked liked she had a head full of waves." Look at you your as pale as a sheet, paler even I bet! You're so much like a vampire I swear!"

            "You're not going to stop yelling are you Ashley?"

            "No"

            "Well then knock yourself out because I'm not leaving"

            "Butler and Juliet would have want you to do so" Artemis just looked at her, hurt. The only time he ever went out side was when it was for Butler or Juliet .Once a week, he'd go to there graves. And he hated Ashley for using Juliet and but as an excuse to get him out the house and he hated her because they got married the same day Juliet and Butler was fatally wounded. But like always, he gave in and did what she wanted. "Good," said Ashley whit a smirk on her face "I'd knew you'd see it from my eyes sooner or later. Now get dress, I want to get there early."

At the mall, Ashley looked sharper than a knife. She wore a tight, baby blue strapless, that said "Kawaii girl" on it with an almost plastic like light blue mini skirt and 5 inch blue sandals. She had a thick coat of blue outliner around her eye and a tattoo of a teardrop under her left eye. Not only did she look good but her mood had very much improved as well.  Artemis was glad to get away from her, because as soon as was walked in there, she told him" I'll see you end three hours"

 Artemis was going to go to the food to get a bit to eat .On his away there some Japanese guy called him over.

            "Hello there young man, would you be interested in buying some birds?" Artemis was about to sat "No" When some thing caught his eyes. From behind the man legs pop out a golden Phoenix with the biggest blue eyes, just like the one in his dream. But this one was a chick, just a baby.

            "How much for the Phoenix" asked Artemis

             "Priceless, beside, you wouldn't be able to control it…."but the man stopped. The Phoenix hopped on Artemis shoulder and stood there as if that's were she been all her life

            "How much for the Phoenix?" asked Artemis again

            "Priceless, she has chosen you as her owner now you must take care of her. Her name is  Teiluj, but we call her Tei"

            "What do I feed her?"

            "You'll see"

            "And do you have a cage for her"

            "Boy listen" said the man "the Phoenix is a free bird. She doesn't belong in a cage "

            "Sure ok" Artemis looked at the small Phoenix on his shoulder. But when he looks back at the man, he was gone.

              "Where did he go?" Artemis asked him. Tei jumped off his shoulder and stood in front of him. That's when a miracle happens. Tei turned into a little girl, about 5 years old. She had long blonde hair and big blue eyes.

            "Master Artemis," her voice as lovely as a song I'm hunger! I want to eat"

            "Sure what do you want to eat" he asked. He felt out of character lately

            "I donno, you're my mater, you tell me" Tei smiled a smile as big and bright as the sun

            "Why am I even listing to you, I should be freaked out right now. I must be dreaming" he said.

            " No I'm very real and-" but Tei was cut off. Tei didn't like to be cut off. Ashley was there and she looked very pissied.
