On with the chapter….

Saint Bartlebys- Artemis

Artemis strode quietly down the hallway; his laptop tucked under one arm. At the end of the corridor he stopped and rapped loudly on the door. After a short scuffle, a wrinkled old lady opened the door, glaring suspiciously over her spectacles at him. He met her eyes squarely.

"There has been a national discovery. The teachers are having a meeting, and they wish for you to join them." He said smoothly. He had opted to go get her, since then he would be the first one to get to Derek, and the other kids would not say something foolish to him. Her eyebrows raised in surprise. She shoved past him, calling back over her shoulder.

"Watch him or I'll have your hide." She said shrilly as Artemis slipped in the Detention Room, and closed the door firmly shut; it would not do to have anyone hear what he was about to say. He looked over at Derek, who was lounging, in a chair, staring at Artemis with a bemused expression.

"Is that true?" he asked, cocking an eyebrow. Artemis just glared at him.

"Yes. It was true. It seems like some miners that were going particularly deep, found something of unusual interest. The top world is in an uproar." Artemis said blandly. All the color drained out of Derek's face.

"No…" he breathed. Artemis bowed his head in acknowledgment of it being the truth. Then a peculiar look came over Derek's face. "How long have you known? How long have you had your memories back?" Artemis smiled ruefully, but it was a real smile, not a vampiric grin.

"Awhile. Your sister brought my memories back. Needless to say, she saved quite a few people from my…eh…plots." Artemis said, raising one eyebrow. "Speaking of your sister, she has gone to help them. She told me to tell you what happened." Derek nodded.

"Thank you.... I cannot imagine what I would have done if one of the other kids had told me. I'm not THAT good of an actor." He said slowly, getting up from his chair. "I highly doubt anyone will remember that little ol' me was in detention, after they find out that we're not alone…." Artemis smiled grimly as Derek swung open the door. Artemis reached out and stopped him, and Derek looked at him. "What?"

"I want you to know…. I'll help them. I anyway I can. I am the People's friend, NOT their enemy. Remember that." Artemis said softly. Derek looked him in the eye, and there was warmth in his gaze.

"I will remember that…my friend." Then Derek swung open the door, and was gone, around the corner.

(A/N ok. I wanna end this here…but it ish to short…. but I don't know what to put next…. ::pulls hair in frustration:: I guess I'll keep going….but only a little bit more…)


Police Plaza: Holly

Foaly's computer beeped.

"It's a message. From Darien. (A/N Darien is Derek, ok?)" Foaly said, activating it. Darien stood in the midst of the woods, his face pale.

"How is everybody?" he asked. Raven stepped forward.

"Dazed and confused. They can't believe that this has happened." She said grimly, and Derek nodded.

"It doesn't seem real to me, either! I still can't believe that this happened! I mean, I expected this to happen someday…. but not this SOON!" he said breathlessly, looking down at his feet. Then he recovered himself. "Just making sure you guys were ok, and if there was anything you needed me to do." Foaly shrugged.

"Just watch the reactions of your peers. What do they think of us?" he said softly. Darien nodded.

"I will. I will always be here if you guys need me." He said earnestly, looking intently at them. Holly nodded.

"We will need all the friends we can get in the MudMen world." She said softly. Darien met Raven's eyes, and gave a slight nod. He is with us.


In a cell, far far away, with high tech security just available for the most powerful criminals, a convict sat in a dank cell. He was thin, painfully thin, emaciated, and he sat with his head in his hands. He looked for all the world as if he had nothing on his mind, but it was not so. His crazed mind teamed with ideas and escape plans.

Guards strolled past his cell, and he lifted his head, just slightly, so he could hear what they were discussing. His eyes opened wide as he heard what they were saying. FAIRIES? and their high technology… Slowly realization dawned on him, and his eyes gleamed with madness and rage.

They must be the ones that had helped his enemy…the ones who had destroyed him… now, at long last, he understood. He threw back his head, and howled at the iron ceiling, a demented howl. He would destroy them! The fairies would remember the name of Jon Spiro…
