Authors note: Three chapters in one week, didn't you get lucky. If you don't understand this chapter, read Inkheart, brilliant book 'tis, 'tis a brill book it is! No, bet seriously it is a good book, I read it all in one day. And, Arty is the one with the gift. Also I have decided to do a preview.

Disclaimer: The only thing I own is this lack of plot, LJ, and Tie and Lutefa owns himself/herself.

¿?¿?¿?¿?¿?¿?¿?¿?¿?

Artemis, who realized that he had not yet spoken this chapter, and was jealous that not only had LJ called Tie "Tie," but that she had also been talking to him for almost ten lines, started feeling braver than usual.

Artemis: Hey, Frin!

Oh no, he was in for it now.

Chapter eight:

Tie: Don't!

Author: *through clenched teeth* Now you are going to d-i-e die.

Tie: We'll distract them, you make a run for it.

Lutefa: I want to have a scream off!

Rootsie: *Whiny* Me too- wait WHY THE BLEEP DOES MY NAME SAY ROOTSIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'M GOING TO KILL YOU, KATE- *all the sudden Root pales as he realized what he had done- used the author's first name*

Author: *to Rain, who has a notepad in his hands* Root first.

LJ: Holly, help. no, wait; um. let me see your gun.

Holly: *tosses gun to Laura Jean* Just don't tell who you got it from!

LJ: Who will she think it belongs to? How many of us are just walking around with neutrino 3000s?

Foaly: 3500.

LJ: Huh?

Foaly: I said, Holly's gun is a neutrino 3500.

All the sudden, the authors eyes lit up in flame. She took out her earplugs, and leaned in and whispered something in Rainruler's ear. He looked surprised, so more than likely she told him to do something horrible. He disappeared in a puff of purple smoke, and reappeared exactly five minutes later with a plastic bag, filled with grey dust. The dust, if the author wrote right (that sounds cool, doesn't it?) and whoever she thought had the gift read right, that bag would kill them all; they call it the Shadow.

Preview:

Artemis didn't want to read, but he had the gift and the author was forcing him to, he had no choice in the matter.

"Then one day, the shadow heard his name being called. It wasn't the evil man Capricorn, oh no, he had been killed. The voice was female, but not the sweet blond female with intentions to save her father and rescue the day that had turned him good, it was a short fiery girl with intentions to kill. He did not want to come, but it was his duty. Slowly he arose, red eyes glowing.."
