Jessica: I continued the story, you were over ruled by two others. Thank you SO much for your advice, it will help a lot. You will find that Artemis will be himself to other people. I agree, now, that I shouldn't take Flirt. Thanks for the backup. Here comes the pitifull part, could you talk a little about what you do like? I know you like it, cause you keep reading, but I would like to know what you like. Thanks much.

Elfinemerald: Very well, I shall not end my story. You tipped the scale, feel proud! Just so you know, that review SUCKED!

Eliza Star: Alright, I'll take Artemis with me! Jeez! I'm glad I make you happy. (smile) So, she should be near boys, okay! Thank you so much for you review! ************************************************************************ "Um, Foaly, do you mind if I take a shower before I go home?" I asked, I was trying to stall. Besides, I was sweaty and icky and didn't want to go home like that.

"You can if you want to." He replied in a confused voice.

"Thanks." I replied while heading out of the room. I really need to think. I turned he shower on and felt the steam envelop me. 'I'm really going to miss Artemis. I don't want to lose touch with him. But then again I don't belong here, and I don't want to put my family through the pain of never knowing if I was dead or not. At least this way Artemis will know what happened. Maybe there was a way we could keep in touch.No there probably wasn't. Oh well, it wouldn't be good for me to be bouncing between two worlds anyway.' I thought darkly. My decision was finally made when I honestly considered what would happen if I stayed with Artemis. I immediately felt a great loss, and knew I could never do that. Yet, at the same time I knew I would always wonder what would have happened if I had stayed?

After I changed back into my clothes I slowly walked back into the lounge. I looked in and saw Artemis sitting on the couch. He was once again the way I had met him. Cold and unresponsive, but I now knew that he was dealing with a great pain quietly. I was really going to miss him. I knew this was going to be oquard I went over to Artemis, gave him a long look and gave him a big hug. He didn't recole like I had expected, instead he returned it.

"I'm really going to miss you." I whispered to him. HE just gave me a quick squeeze before releasing me.

"I have something for you." He said emotionlessly. Then he pulled out a necklass; it was a simple piece of yarn with a wooden pendant. When I looked at it closely I saw that it was an "A". The wood was carved in such a way that you had to looked closely to see it, I though it was beautiful. Even if it was something you'd probably find in a mall.

I went over to Foaly, and I felt like I was Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz. "I'm ready." I said.

"You need to stand over there." He said briskly while pointing to a spot on the rug. "Now, I'm going to press this button and you will be sent back home. I'm not going to go into details because you wouldn't understand it anyway." He sniffed with an injured dignity.

"You mean Root DIDN'T threaten to kill you if you went all technical?" Holly asked with a grin. Foaly just gave her an acid look.

Then Foaly pressed the button and I felt all tingly for a second before I was suddenly in my bed room. I checked the clock and it was 5:56. I immediately got up and dressed in my normal clothes before running down to our kitchen. "Mama!" I yelled.

"What, what's wrong?" she asked really worriedly.

"What day is it?" I asked.

"It's Thursday, Thia, why?" she replied, looking really worried.

"I just had I really realistic dream, that's all." I said nervously, discreetly fingering the pendant.

"Well, don't scare me like that." Mama replied.

"Sorry." I said as I went into the bathroom to brush my teeth. The next two days I slipped back into my routine. Though I found myself suddenly turning around and expecting to see Artemis. I hadn't realized how much I'd miss him. Then everything changed on Saturday at 7:00 am.

"Thia!" my mom yelled to me.

"What?" replied drowsily.

"The exchange student is here, Artemis!" she yelled up to me.

Needless to say I leaped out of bed and bolted down the stairs. I fell down the stairs and landed in a heap with my purple eyore pajamas all crumpled. And Artemis Fowl was staring at me from the door. He was his usual cold self, though I did see him smile slightly when I had fallen down the stairs.

"Thia," my mom sighed, "Could you show Artemis his room?"

I didn't know what the hell she was talking about. "Could you have Habby and Annah do it?" I asked. "I need to change."

"Fine, go ask them." She replied. I think I heard her muttering about how I kept getting stranger and stranger.

"ABBY, HANNAH!" I yelled up the stairs.

"What!" they yelled down in unison.

"Could you take Artemis to his room?" I yelled back. Meanwhile Artemis was looking at me like I was crazy.

"Why don't you do it?" asked Abby as she popped her head around the corned of the stairs.

"I need to change." I replied.

"Fine, but you owe me." Was her reply.

"You know that you don't need me to owe you for me to assist you in any way." Was my response as I led Artemis up the stairs.

Abby just grumbled as she led Artemis to the Attick. 'Why is she leading him to the attick, it isn't finished?' I wondered. I quickly changed into my weekend clothes, enough said, and went up to see Artemis. I was greeted by the sight of our disgusting-so-full-of-stuff-you-can't-walk attick finished into a gorgeous room.

Luckily Abby had already left cause I had to sit down on Artemis' bed. The first thing I did was stare at Artemis, "How's Butler?" I asked.

"Fine, do you happen to have any idea what is going on?" he asked coldly.

"Artemis, lets not go back to that I-hate-you-attitude, please?" I pleaded.

He sighed laborusly and relaxed, "Why did your mom think I was an exchange student?" he asked, more friendly, but he was still kinda stiff.

"I have no idea," I confessed with a sigh. "We didn't expect any exchange student, this room wasn't even finished." I told him wearily. I immediately streched out on the bed. "Hey! How come you get the good bed." I said grumply.

"That is beside the point, I need to fined a way back home." He said, clearly unnunciating each word.

"Well, first of all, what stupid thing did you do that got you stuck here?" I asked.

"After you were sent, Foaly bumped the mackine which focused on me. I was immediately sent here." Was his short and flat reply. "I didn't do anything."

"Wow, you can even make the most interesting thing boring." I said with a grin.

"Can we PLEASE focus on the problem right now." He said stiffly, I was soon going to make him explode.

"Sorry." I replied demurly. "Any ideas?" I asked expactantly.

"No." he said after a deep breath.

After I had absorbed the fact that Artemis had no back up plan, I began to fully consider the problem. "Well, we need to get you out of the house before we start chatting. My moms used to me having weird conversations, but not this weird. Also, I doubt she'd be impressed with me being in a boys room, or vise versa." I told him.

He gave me a superior and amused look.

"I did nothing to earn my mom's reaction!" I exclamed defensivly. "Wait a second, why do you have all of your suitcases and clothing?" I asked suspiciously.

"No idea, I've also got all the leagal papers that would be required." He said, sounding slightly mistified.

"Someone really likes you." I stated with awe.

"Can we focuss on getting out?" he asked testily.

"Oh, yeah, um, how about I show you around town, that should pass." I told him, while walking down the attick stairs. "Well come on." I said chearfully, "And don't forget your coat."

He grabbed his desiner coat, figures, and followed me down to the kitchen.

I should probably explain my house and family. We have a two tory house. The upper story consists of Abby, Hannah, my parents and my bedrooms, not to mention the upstairs bathroom. The downstairs has the kitchen, library/toy room/computer room, the kitchen, and the bathroom. If you go down some stairs into our cobweb infested basement, you'll see a wood stove and a wall covered in wood piles.

Abby and Hannah are twins, and I often mix them up. As a result I'll start to say Abby and finish with Hannah, thus the Habby and Annah. Abby is 12, and tends to be the peace maker. She has short, thick blond hair, a very triangular face, blue eyes, and is really skinny. Hannah, is thin, has long blond hair that goes to her shoulders, and when she hits puberty will be the bell of the ball. She is a tom boy, and thinks the only use for boyfriends is to get stuff. My mom has long mouse brown hair, plain features, and glasses. My dad insists that she is the most beautiful woman he ever met. She tends to have a short temper, the rule "When mamma ain't happy, ain't nobody happy" applies. My Dad is really sweat. When he was young, though I louthe to admit it, he was cute. Now I'd say he's comfortable. He is someone who you never see without a smile, has undieing patients, and is the safe lap when you are little. I'm not going to bother describing his apperiance because his attitude is how people remmember him. But I will mention how he has beautiful dark brown hair, that has waves, and I play with ALL the time.

************************************************************************ A/N: I hope you like this chapter, it was done all in one hour. My writers block is finally gone! Also, that isn't my family or town or house. It's a mix of my/my friends/my moms/my grandparents/storybooks/and my ideal family and town. I spend so much time day dreaming about it that it's like a real place.
