Hey guys!!! Sorry I'm so evil, but hey.*grins mischievously * that's me. I
made brownies *looks heavenward* I thank the lord for making something as
great as brownies. Chocolate.mmmmmmm..
And after that it's on to Wal-Mart! And I got a problem: I don't know what
to be for Halloween. We don't really celebrate it, being Christians and
all, but who doesn't want free candy? lol. Anyway, thanks to: slime frog,
rad bubblegum, becca8, and mage kitty. And guys- don't apologize for not
reviewing a chapter. The point is whether or not you're happy. To an
extent, at least. Here it is:
Late Saturday morning: Fowl Manor
Artemis the second sat up on the couch. The onslaught of memories must have knocked him out. He glanced down the hallway to the table where all the "evidence" was. He almost smiled. Everything there had a sentimental value. The medallion for his spark of decency, the contacts for how he fooled Holly-though he did feel a bit bad for that-, the strange blue cube he had found in his laboratory and assumed empty for defeating Spiro, etc..this time, he didn't hold back. He smiled a genuine smile. He had beaten the fairies. Again. He got off the couch and barely missed stepping on Juliet. She and Butler were lying on the floor. Apparently Mulch wasn't strong enough to get them on the other couches after they saw him. Speak of the devil.. Mulch walked in, brushing crumbs off his shirt. He grinned at seeing Artemis awake.
"Hello again, Fowl. Miss me?" Artemis smiled anew.
"What took you so long? I was almost ready to give in to my father's wishes and go completely legal. Thank you for coming when you did." Mulch winked.
"I'm a life saver, I know. But you really would have gone legal?" he asked incredulously. Artemis nodded. "Anyway", Mulch continued, "Root had me tried and retried a few rimes, but in the end, they had to let me go." He lied smoothly. It had really only been one trial, but Artemis didn't need to know that he had helped Koboi with something. Actually, Mulch himself didn't know what. Except that it had to do with the guards in Howler's Peak. Or so he thought.
He brightened up again. "So.what are we doing first?" he started as Juliet sat up, holding her head. She slowly opened her eyes. She saw Mulch, "Stinker.I'm going to kill you." Then she groaned and went to the kitchen to get some aspirin. Mulch looked not at all guilty. Ignoring death threats was a hobby for him. Artemis carried on the conversation.
"I heard the government call Fort Knox impenetrable." They smiled mischievously in unison.
