Chapter one: Moon amulet

A/N: I'm back!!!! hahahahahahahahahaha!! And there's nothing any of you can do about it but sit tight and read it! please R&R, it would make me really happy and you'd be a nice person to do so! And F.Y.I this is post EC. Artemis is 16 and Juliet is only two years Artemis's senior making her 18 oke? oke now on whit the fic!

Juliet wore a cat suit and was hiding in the shadows awaiting orders. Perhaps too long for attention span as she began to day dream.

 "Juliet? Come in. Juliet!"

"Uh?? wha?? Oh, ah yah, still here Arty? Can you hurry up? I'm not getting any young you knew."

"Yes, well I just want to tell you that the hall is all clear now for about ninety seconds. I just downloaded a virtual map of hall 23, 24 and, 25 into your night goggles."

"Right…so what do I do when I get to the end of hall 23?" Juliet asked

 "Worry about that, only when you get there. Now go. You have about seventy-five seconds now to get there. Oh, and one more thing; be careful not to alter any security devices"

 Juliet moved with the speed and flexibility of a graceful cat. She had no problems getting down to the 23 corridor un-seen.

"Kay Arty, I'm at the door. Now what?"

"Open it. Inside is an amulet. I want you to take it. Then leave as fast as you can."

Juliet opened the door and entered. It was as cold and damp as a cave. With the aid of her night goggles she was able to find the amulet, take it, and leave.

 The amulet was heavy and cool in her hands. It was also in the shape of a moon. She didn't see why Artemis  would want it thought.

" 90.5 seconds total. You do well, Juliet" She smiled

"Thanks it runs in the family. So why didya want this… amulet for anyway?"

" I suppose it won't hurt to tell you, I received this letter form a client about a week ago." He gave it to her to read once they were in the car. "As you can see, Ms. Spiro is very welling to pay millions for this amulet, though she will not share it value to us. We will meet her at Ein Fin in approximately two day."

Juliet face grew uneasy.

"Something…just doesn't feel right about this Spiro girl…It feels like we had already had meet her before."

 "Juliet, I assure you, we have never met her before. This is perfectly legal."

"I wouldn't say perfectly legal but whatever." She looked out the window and let her mind runaway with her

Flashback

The girl nodded. There wasn't enough air in her wind pipes for speech.

"That's better. Anyone inside?"

A shake of the head this time.

Pex relaxed the grip slightly.

"How many more in  the family?"

The girl answered in whispers, using as little air as possible. "Seven."

Then the girls foot snapped back catching him in the chest.

"Opps, Accident."

"You…you just…No way!"

"Way"

"Juliet. Wake up we're back." Juliet looked at the window and shuttered. The dream seemed so real.

"Are you okay?" Artemis said helping Juliet out of the car

"Yah," she said rubbing her temple "just tried I think I should go to bed. Night ." she whispered as she wobbled off to her room.

"Good night Juliet." Artemis said before turning on the T.V to see what was new on CNN
