DISACLAIMER: See beginning of story.
Chapter 3: I scream for ice cream.
By: Anne Marie Davis
"Oh my gosh Anne! I can't believe you won that contest!"
Kat sat on her bed already packed and ready to go. Anne Marie was still finishing up her hair. Kat took out her mirror and compact and started applying gray eyeshadow to her eyes. Anne Marie came out of the restroom with her hair in a casual style and she grabbed her bag.
"Yeah, I did put a lot of effort into that essay. Deborah tried for it too ya know, except they found out she had Phoebe Hallowell do it for her. Haha, she was disqualified."
Kat giggled," That makes me feel even better about going on this trip! That she could've gone too! HA!"
Anne Marie had won an essay contest for the orphanage. Anne Marie had always been an ok writer. She had always enjoyed it too. So when the opportunity popped up for her to win a trip to the city accompanied with $1,000.00. She thought she'd have a go at it. And much to her surprise, she'd won! So here she was packing her backpack for a fun-filled day of shopping.
Anne Marie shook her head. Kat had always been a sweet girl, but when she didn't like someone, she didn't like someone. She'd do anything to make their life miserable. But Anne Marie found Kat's evil side very amusing.
Kat jumped up and shouted," All right, all right! Enough lolly-gagging already! Let's get this show on the road!" With that she jumped up and snatched up her bag. She grabbed Anne Marie by the arm and dragged her out of the room.
Artemis Fowl sat at his state-of-the-art computer station, looking up information on three of the most powerful witches in the world.
He pushed his glasses farther up his nose and took a closer look at the screen.
There was a picture, a drawing of three beautiful women, all gathered around a steaming cauldron. He scanned down the page towards the paragraph under the drawing. It read:
The Delgado sisters were one of the most powerful witches known, they were born to a Spaniard family in Spain. They were named Amanda, Bianca, Marissa, each two years apart. But when the parents were falsely accused of being witches, they were forced to flee the country. Eventually they ended up in Dublin, Ireland, where they settled. But even there they were found. Marissa and Bianca were captured a trialed. They both were burned at the stake. But fortunately the eldest was spared and she fled to the countryside. She changed her identity to Ella Jones and eventually married to an Irish farmer named Hector "Jesse" Davis. They had children and lived happy lives and both died at age of 100. Which was very rare back then.
Modern day has changed the ways. Witches are believed to not exist anymore but Amanda's blood has survived. She resides in a country orphanage outside of Dublin; her name is Anne Marie Andralyn Davis. An address cannot be given due to security reasons.
But after that Artemis ignored. A witch just might be his ticket for more gold. With her powers he could break into any high security bank in all of Europe! He smiled evilly as a plan started to formulate. Today was a good day for crime.
(A/n: ::stares amazed at the screen:: Whoa.did I just write that!? That was pretty good!)
Anne Marie grinned goofily at the sight before her. It was a gorgeous sunny day. And the temperature was warm. And there, lay the most extraordinary sight she had ever seen. She had never seen so many people! Everything was so noisy and busy, it was incredible. She was dragged into the nearest store immediately.
The girls spent all afternoon shopping, after 3 hours the glory of shopping was wearing down. So Anne Marie suggested an ice-cream stop. Kat didn't argue.
10 minutes later the girl came out of the shop with double scoop ice creams. They sat on a nearby bench and rested.
Artemis glanced around a squinted even though he had sunglasses. How could he be expected to find anyone with all this!? He scowled as a businessman with a cell phone shoved him. Artemis grumbled as he felt a tap on his shoulder.
He turned to see his manservant, Butler. "Ah, yes. Hello Butler. Found anything yet?"
Butler shook his head and replied," I haven't. Are you sure the girl is here?"
Artemis scowled at being doubted," Of course I'm sure! How could I not be?"
Butler shrugged and continued scanning the crowd for the girl.
After 15 minutes more of scanning, Butler was beginning to think Artemis was loosing his touch. Until he heard the boy shout," There! I see her!" Butler turned and moved his eyes to the place directed, and indeed, there on a bench sat a small girl with strawberry-blonde hair. He smiled; this was where he'd start to have some fun.
Anne Marie finished her treat in minutes. She sat there waiting for her friend to come out of the restroom when she heard a voice," Anne Marie." She glanced around, no one looked like they were calling her. Maybe she was just imagining things with the heat. Then she heard her name again, louder this time, coming from the alley just a few feet away. She stared at the alley warily.
She thought for one minute of joining her friend inside the store, where there were more people but the idea was quickly pushed out of thought by her curiosity. She stood up and grabbed her bag, slinging it over her shoulder, and headed for the alley.
She stepped into the alley cautiously. She kept her senses alert, every part of her body vigilant. Suddenly a pair of enormous hands grabbed her by the shoulders from behind. She struggled but the hands gripped painfully against her arms. She screamed but was quickly muffled by the assailant.
She remembered back to when she was attacked by the class bully like this. She had stepped on the boy's toe and elbowed him in the nose. Of course, that was 3rd Grade. She seemed to not have any better ideas so she went for it.
She slammed her foot onto the attacker's foot and the man, considering the large size, howled with pain. She kicked him in the shin and ran as fast as she could towards the end of the alleyway. But before her emerged a tall boy of her age with pale skin and ice-cold ice. She shivered at his gaze. The boy held up a small metallic object and suddenly she felt secure.
These men were not trying to hurt her. She was just being paranoid. She had nothing at all to worry about. And then a chilling voice filled her mind," Get into the car, girl." She nodded robotically and headed towards the limousine near the sidewalk, where had that come from? But she quickly forgot that thought as she entered the air conditioned car and sat down on the cool leather seats.
All of a sudden she felt tired, "It's probably the heat," she thought vaguely. And the chilling voice spoke once more, " Sleep." And she thought she'd obey the voice and quickly fell into a deep slumber.
Well, to tell ya the truth that wasn't as bad as I thought it'd be. ::shrugs:: I hope ya like!
