A/N: I am finally finished with Drama! That means I have a life again!
And I'm going to do it again next year anyway! I am so stupid! (Cough)
Anyway, thanks for all the reviews.
Disclaimer: You're probably just reading this for amusement, I WILL OWN ARTEMIS! MWAHAHAHA! Artemis is beginning to panic behind me. Oh, I didn't tell you did I, this is based on a true story, isn't that right Artemis. HE just told me to stop it; he's going to get caught. (I hope none of you actually believe this, if so, get some help).
SpicyHollyElf: I'm going to have her get a dog, but when she goes back to her own world. That way he has to deal with her dog in HER turf. I want a weimeraner, I know I spelt that wrong, I just don't know how to spell it right. It's a silver gray dog that's slender, not skinny as in those racing dogs, with a slightly larger head than body. It's a little cartoony but it means that they're smart, and they have big perky ears that makes them seem to always question something. They bond to ONE person and are hunters; they tend to need a lot of exercise. Yes I updated, I didn't have time during Drama, but now I should be able to give you one every day. Hehe.
AngelGirl10: I don't have drama any more, so I can update more frequently. Joy of joys! SO start reviewing!
Orchid Jupiter Adept: Okay, I don't think I want to go into fairy world. I won't have them be real, but only Artemis will come with me, I have something planned. But I'm not going to tell you! I'm not sure if I want a dog that eats butter. I've already had two border collies and you can't get more energetic than that. One died, the other one we had to give away, it still hurts a little. I really bond with them. The one that died, whenever I felt sad or had a quick change in emotion would suddenly look at me and react to my emotion. They are JUST as smart as we are. That's why I don't want a perfectly trained dog. Boy are the scientist going to feel awful when they realize animals are sentient. I'm serious. One of my little quirks.
Eliza Star: Yeah, it is kinda weird that we have so much in common. Kind of creepy too. I think I'll just have to keep in touch with you. I don't sound like a stalker do I? Don't worry about jumping around, my sisters do it all the time, I'm kinda used to it. They use pronouns to much also, then he did this to her. It's really hard to figure out what they are saying. I always wanted to live in a really small town, so guess what, Cerinthia is going to live in one! I live in a medium small town, not a village. Yeah, love never makes sense; I just don't really want to see holly or Artemis in a lot of pain. I kinda like them. Cowboys do eat a lot, oh shit. (Sigh) there goes my allowance, wait a second, What allowance!? I'm beginning to lose it. And yes, you make sense; the reader just has to look at the spirit not the letter.

Artemis' parents immediately showed up at the door of the lounge, feathers still drifting down to the floor, and Artemis and I still in the throws of laughter.
"What, just, Artemis, are you.laughing!?" Mrs. Fowl asked incredulously.
"He made me do it!" I yelled while pointing my finger at Artemis. He smirked at me before discreetly squirting with a water bottle. If his parents weren't there he would have died.
His Dad was just smiling, as if god had just answered his prayers. "I wouldn't put it past him, but for some reason I doubt that THIS time he made you do it." He said trying hard not to laugh.
I gave him a grin, "Well, maybe I helped a little." I mumbled.
Artemis looked at me and quickly grabbed his sweatshirt and other various presents and tried to hide them. He would have succeeded; he is THE genius after all, if I hadn't decided to have some fun. "Oh, you haven't seen the presents I gave Artemis yet!" I said loudly, making sure to catch their attention.
"Oh, arty kins, show your mummy your presents." Mrs. Fowl said while reaching for them in a no nonsense manner. He LET her take them and had a pre-occupied look on his face. I KNEW he was plotting how to get me back, oh shit.
Mr. Fowl immediately started laughing uncontrollably. I grinned, "It was to good to pass up."
"I'll say." Mrs. Fowl answered. She gave me a secretive grin before turning to Artemis. "Oh Arty kins, you just HAVE to put this on, it would look so sweet on you."
His face looked like a sour melon. HE wordlessly took off his jacket and slipped on the sweatshirt, he did look pretty good in it. "OH, you have to wear that more often!" I exclaimed, not joking at all now. "It's so cool." HE gave me an amused yet aloof look. "You're using that look again." I warned. In response he gave me that look times an elephant (A/N: Hey Eliza Star.) 'I have to make dinner, vanilla extract in his drink should do it, that stuff is nasty before cooked.' I thought. "Would you like your presents?" I asked Mr. and Mrs. Fowl.
They just gave me a smile. I went over to the tree and started to squirm around under it until I found them. I had gotten Mrs. Fowl a wonder full array of chocolate, and Mr. Fowl a tracking device. Simple probably didn't work, but it LOOKED cool.
'What's this for?" asked Mr. Fowl.
"Why, Artemis of course, who know WHAT he's up to." I said. "It probably doesn't work, but it looks cool." I said with a shrug.
Artemis just shook his head at the last bit, I was pretty sure it DIDN'T work after that. He wasn't very impressed with the, who knows WHAT he's up to, bit. Thought Mr. Fowl started coughing REALY hard, as if he was trying not to, say, laugh. "Artemis, could you grab my present to Cerinthia." He asked, somehow managing to calm down. Artemis grumbled a bit, but reached under the tree and pulled out a present in red paper. I was kind of curious, though it would probably be more chocolate or something. These guys don't even know me. I opened it to find a gorgeous dress. It was green velvet princess cut. It would go down past my ankles; it was like a Lord of the Ring elven dress. I was speechless, but Mrs. Fowl handed me an other present, smiling slightly. AS I opened it, I noticed how closely Artemis was watching me. It contained gold jewelry. I doubt it was real gold, but they were all lovely. It had a gold belt that would settle around the hips, a necklace that had a green glass stone dangling from the center, and some slippers to go with the dress. The slippers were such a dark green they were almost black, with "gold" embroidery. When all put on it would look like a mid evil outfit. "It's beautiful." I said, stunned again. That seemed to be happening a lot.
"It's a good thing you like it, course you're going to have to wear it at the ball tonight." Artemis told me calmly.
"What!?" I yelped, I was not good with large groups of people. I've never been in a larger group then maybe thirty and that made me really tense.
"Yes, there's a ball tonight, we hold one every Christmas, I thought I'd told you." He said, looking concerned yet his eyes glittered with his malicious enjoyment.
"I," I began before just deflating. "When does it start?" I said, completely hiding my fear. I didn't know how I'd react, plus, I can't dance. Well, I can dance in the pop sense, but I don't know anything else.
"At 1:00 PM till late." He responded.
"Well, I'm going to take care of these absolutely gorgeous presents, and then go make a snowman before everyone arrives." I replied, giving everyone a huge smile as I gathered my present and leaving.
"Here, let me help you carry something." Artemis said, making it plain to me that he just wanted to talk with me. As we started up the stairs Artemis asked, "What made you react like that?"
"I can't dance." I replied, completely serious, I wasn't going to tell him about my crowed problem. I've always been able to handle it in the past. It was nothing major; I'd just get a slight case of the butterflies.
"Are you sure that's all?" he asked. I knew that I'd have to come up with something fast.
"Yes, I'm worrying about my family. How are they reacting to my disappearance? I was able to deal with it until now cause I knew I couldn't do anything about it." I said, I was only partly lying. I'm not all that good at fibbing, I need to have some truth or I stumble.
"Well, you don't need to worry about that. I am calling in a favor." Artemis said.
"What do you mean?"
"I saved Holly, Foaly, Root, all of the fairies. By the laws of Fairies and their magic, they must return any favor I ask." He replied, watching me closely.
"Wow, why did you call it in for me?" I asked.
"I only called it in recently. I figured out that I consider you the way I would a little sister. So I acted." He responded, trying and failing to sound non-caring.
"Thanks, I think of you as a big brother too. I only have sisters, so it's definitely a little weird for me." I responded with a laugh. Though I was completely serious, as I had begun.
We walked wordlessly to my room; "I can take it from here." I said, hoping I sounded non-concerned.
"No, I always finish a job I've started." Artemis responded, pushing past me and walking into my room. HE stopped dead. "It's DISGUSTING!"
"It's not that bad." I responded while slowly picking my way across my floor. It was covered with clothing and other various artifacts.
"You are not going any where until you clean this." He said, his shock and disgust plain in his voice.
"Yeah, sure, whatever you say." I answered while heading out of the door.
HE grabbed me and forced me back into my room, "I was serious."
"You honestly think I'm going to listen to you." I replied with a little surprise in my voice. I was discreetly looking for an opening.
"No, but that will change. You can't live in a room that's this filthy." He replied while taking a menacing step into my room. I took my chance and bolted out of my room.
He ran after me in pursuit. I guess his annoyance is justified, he is a clean freak, but even if he does feel like my brother, he doesn't have to act like my mom. He grabbed me and flipped me over his shoulder and carried me back to my room. "You have no right to do this!" I yelled at him while hitting his back as hard as I was willing.
"So get a lawyer." He responds coolly.
"Put me down!" I shrieked while giving him a bone cracking hit.
He dropped me immediately. I ran towards the stairs, but he cut me off. "You are not going to live in filth like that. The fact that it doesn't affect you is bad enough already!"
I had yelled at him before, but never been fully angry. When I'm angry, quite frankly I get pretty damn scary. I'm normally really quite because I'm mature enough to try to calm someone down instead of having a shouting match. When I get angry I react in two ways, I either become extremely disgusted or my vision blurs and I start yelling and it's all I can do to keep from killing them. If I was a warrior I'm fairly sure I'd be a bersurker. Luckily enough for him I was disgusted, he had no right to do this, and was way over the line. My vision began to blur around the edges but I didn't notice, "What do you think you are doing?" I asked stiffly, my voice getting cold and dangerous. "You have no right, you don't even have the privilege to choose how I live. You are treading on dangerous ground, and I'd suggest you choose your footing wisely." I told him. My vision was almost completely gone and I still hadn't notice, I was stiff and adrenaline was coursing through my veins. I was ready to kill him. I may not be a practiced fighter, but what I don't know I make up for with instinct and fury. I never fight when calm, and I have a habit of pinning people in such a way that they have no hope of getting out. I'm not normally put in a position where I start fighting, it had only happened twice before, and luckily I was stopped. I'm not all that strong, I'm not weak either though, I can lift and carry and I can punch. Though I never remember punching anyone so the knowledge doesn't stay with me when I'm calm.
He looked at me and quietly stepped away from the stairs, my vision was return and I realized how close I had come to freaking out. I wouldn't let him see how shaken I was, so I stiffly walked to the front door where I put on my winter clothing and headed outside. As soon as I closed the door I sat down and started shaking. The adrenaline was leaving my system, and I was scared that I had nearly had another beserker moment. I can e very dangerous when that happens, and only when I'm under a lot of stress. As in a family member with a sickness that s slowly killing them, and a suicidal sister, and I'm stage director in drama, and my dog just died. None of that had actually happened, except for the dog dyeing, but I have to be under that amount of stress.

A/N: So, what do you think? Do you like how I'm shaping Artemis? Do you like this knew bit of Cerinthia? Hahahah?!?! (Said while jumping up and down hyperly.)
I eagerly await your next review.
