Artemis Fowl: Return of Memories Forgotten

Chapter Two: What Really Happened that Day

Disclaimer: I don't own Artemis Fowl, or any spy movie.

Note: This is mostly a flashback but will start in the present.

12:45 am LEPrecon shooting range: Captain Holly Short was in a good mood. Just yesterday the new models of the Neutrino blaster guns had arrived at the LEP headquarters. And just minutes ago, she had received her own for her police work.

That was why she was at the shooting range, to take it for a test run. She had only just gotten the setting adjusted to her liking, and had already shot five bull's eyes. The elf was just about to take another shot when she realized she had an incoming video message coming in via her helmet.

"View message." She annunciated clearly. The file opened and on the screen was none other that Foaly the Centaur.

"Hello captain!" said Foaly so loud that Holly inserted her earplugs. "So," said the Centaur. "Do ya' like the new guns?"

"Yep." Said Holly. "I've got to hand it to you Foaly, you've really outdone yourself this time. The Neutrino 5000 is much better than the 2000 model."

"Believe it or not," said Foaly thoughtfully. "These probably wouldn't have come out for another two years had we not wiped the Fowl kid."

These words caused Holly's stomach to give a nervous lurch as she remembered the rather interesting events of that day....

****** Flashback: the day of the mind wipes at Fowl Manor.

"This is goodbye Artemis. For good. When you wake you won't even remember we were ever here." Said Holly.

"Good-bye captain short." Said the pale teenager. "I'm going to miss these memories."

"Well technically," interrupted Foaly. "You won't."

Before anyone could see Holly wiped her eyes just as they began to water.

"I'm going out for some fresh air." Said the elf. "You take care of the mind wipes Foaly, then get everyone out of here."

"You got it." Said Foaly.

Holly activated her LEP wings and flew out a window into the night sky. She was going to live the normal life of an elf now. But wasn't that why she had become an officer? To not have a normal life? It was at this moment that something clicked in Holly's head.

She lowered herself and flew through the open window. Everyone had their eyes on Artemis, except her. Without a second to spare she took out a pen, labeled some pictures, and along with several other memorabilia, put them into the large drawer in Fowl's computer desk.

'He's sure to look here eventually..but just in case.' Holly shot a tiny whisp of almost invisible magic that secretly placed two mirrored contact lenses in Fowls eyes. The power of these mirrors would probably only give Artemis some bizarre dreams that would lead him to the drawer.she could only hope it worked.

**** End flashback.

"Um." said Holly. "Right."

"Uh oh." Said Foaly. "Bwa'kel remnants in sector 285. We're gonna need you. I can get you a partner. It's that new fairy who works in America.he goes by captain Gemini. Come down town.we'll fill you in on the rest."

"You got it Foaly." Said Holly, activating her wings and flying towards downtown Haven.

'Finally," she thought. 'My first real adventure since the Fowl incidents.'

**** Back at Fowl manor:

Things were back to normal now for Artemis. Only minutes ago he had shown Juliet and Butler the photos.they remembered everything.

Even young master Fowl's lessons with Gemini had improved. The eccentric Texan was pleased with Artemis's swift progress from skinny nobody to a boy with some muscle. (Don't worry he's still very very slender.but less pale.)

Both the trainer and the student were realizing something: Despite the modern era Artemis seemed more comfortable with Swords and throwing knives. He was very good, good enough that he could hit most moving targets. Soon it would be time for a field test.a test of infiltration.but in a bad guy's fortress of course. Soon.very soon.

It would most likely be the fortress of Giovanni Antonelli.a rich millionaire who was holding a very valuable diamond in his greedy hands.

'Get ready Artemis.' Thought Gemini with a pleasant smile. 'Get ready for some fun.'

Author's note: Okay.so that wasn't really all flashback.but..oh well! The first few chapters will be on the short side.be warned. They will get longer though. Please review!
