Chapter Two: The Home of Him

When Artemis returned home to his star, his parents awaited his arrival.

"Boy, where have you been, you've worried your mother sick!" His father spat in his face.

"I was just outside, I never left the star, I swear!" Artemis squealed.

"I smell a lie! Why can you not be more like your brothers? Why?" His father waved his arm to the four boys at salute behind him.

One of his brothers, the oldest, snickered. "Father, it is no use, this boy is despicable!"

Artemis looked put out.

"Go, go to your room, and don't come out until I call for you!" The father yelled at Artemis. "Maid, I need a brandy!" And he walked away.

The second to the oldest brother stepped forward. "Oh, little brother. It is no use. You will always be a pebble in their shoe, and a thorn in their thigh." He laughed along with the other brothers.

Artemis ran as fast as he could to his sleeping quarters. He slammed the door as hard as his arm would let him slam it. He screamed in fury and fell to his bed, crying.

Then he looked out the window above his bed. He couldn't see much, but he could see the outline of that small girl's star. Someday, he would go back. Someday.
