I am so sorry for taking this long to update! It's just that some dimwit
said I was plagiarizing and I got banned for a week. Grr...
I altered the first chapter to take into account the blue eyes. BLUE eyes. Stop nagging me now, people!
By the way, Mulch has not brought back the coin yet. Emphasis on the yet. I allowed one year for a review of Mulch's case and then another four for him lying low for a few years. That makes Artemis eighteen when Mulch comes back. Teehee. Read the next few chapters with care.
Fowl's Wolf
Chapter Two: Welcome to Dublin
"Here we are!"
Cassie turned the silver knob of the door leading to her condo and pushed it open. Diana was immediately ambushed.
"You look great!" Eternity squealed.
"How's your book coming?" Brad asked.
"Have you had any luck finding an acting job?"
"How are you feeling?"
Diana held up a hand for silence.
"I do not look great, my book is coming along wonderfully, no, and terribly."
"What's wrong?" Eternity asked concernedly.
"Well, the fact that she was nearly run over by a large truck might be it," Cassie said.
Eternity gasped, while Brad just looked concerned.
"What happened?" Brad asked.
"I tried to jump into Cassie's car that's so much better than mine, fell off thanks to the clumsiness that's all my dad's fault, ripped my best skirt, fell into the street, wedged my heel into a sewer grate, was nearly run over by a truck, was rescued by an incredibly cute rich genius guy, and sprained my ankle when the shoe tore off and was ruined," Diana answered. "I liked those shoes."
"You are so female," Brad groaned. "This will be a nightmare."
"What, scared of being stuck with three women?" Eternity asked, smirking. "And I thought you were tough."
"Ooh," Cassie said. "An arrow through your heart."
"Where am I sleeping?" Diana asked.
"You're sharing a room with Eternity," Cassie answered. "Brad and I have the other bedroom."
Diana's lips turned downward slightly. Her friends knew her stubborn opinion on premarital sex, but did they listen? Nooo. Well, Eternity did at least. She took a deep breath, but Cassie held up a hand to stop her.
"I know," she groaned. "You've told me this speech how many times now?"
"Sixty-eight," Brad answered.
"Well, make it sixty-nine!" Diana said indignantly. "It's true! Would you like to end up like me?"
Cassie went beet red to the roots of her flaming red hair and muttered something.
"Sorry, didn't catch that."
"No," Cassie said quietly.
"What was that?"
"NO!"
"I think I'm going to unpack now," Diana said with deceiving calm that relaxed her friends. Big mistake.
"Whew, for a second there I thought you were mad at me," Cassie said with relief.
"I AM!"
She stormed off to her room and slammed the door. Cassie shook her head and threw her hands up into the air.
"What is up with her?"
*~*~*
Eternity tentatively pushed open the door to the room she now shared, where her friend was now immersed in job listings.
"Di?" she asked.
"What?" her friend responded moodily.
"Cassie says she's sorry."
"Well then why doesn't she tell me herself?"
"Because she's afraid you'll bite her head off."
"Oh. Well tell her I forgive her."
"Okay." Eternity sat down onto the bed next to Diana. "Found anything."
"N...yes! Yes, yes, yes! Perfect! Take that, Cassandra Tempest, the Wolf has landed!"
"What?!" Eternity asked confusedly.
Diana pointed at an ad she had circled in red.

It was followed by a phone number and address. Diana smirked and switched on her cell phone to make a call.
