Kay everyone, here it is!

Deep under the Surface, in a dark room, a fairy sat hunched over a screen, his brow furrowed in concentration. Suddenly his face lit up, and he punched in a rapid set of buttons, and was rewarded with a soft beep. He threw up one arm and whooped in delight. He was in. Finally, after all these years, he would have the chance to ruin the person who had killed his father! Artemis Fowl…

This fairy was sure that his father's murderer would have made many enemies, and now his task was to find the most powerful one that could aid him in his revenge. He scrolled down the screen, searching for any name that he might know as a power in the Mud Men world. One name caught his eye, and a slow smile spread across his face. He clicked on the name, and as he read the profile, he knew this was the perfect man for his job. There was only one problem; this man was in a highly guarded jail.

Saint Bartleby's- Artemis, Derek, and Mai

While Jon Spiro howled at the iron ceiling, and a fairy plotted in darkness, the object of their hate lay lounging on his bed in the dormitory, oblivious to the rage that was being directed toward him. He lay there, fiddling with the coin around his neck, thinking about his words to Derek.

"I am the People's friend, NOT their enemy. Remember that." Was it true? Yes, it was true, he supposed. He would support the People, and he knew they would need all the help they could get. He owed it to them. And, of course, having Mai as one of the fairies upped them in his favor. Mai was one of his only friends, and he was grateful to her.

He was sure that his parents would support the People, too, after he told them what the fairies had done for them. Artemis winced. He was not looking forward to the telling of that tale; especially the whole kidnapping part. The door to his room slammed open, and Derek strode in. He looked extremely harried, his hair was mussed, and dirt stained his clothes. He held a small device in his hand that he threw carelessly on the opposite bed, before stripping off his clothes. Artemis grabbed the device, before turning away.

"Interesting…" he murmured, as he fiddled with it. Derek groaned.

"Don't touch that Fowl!" Derek said exasperated. He got up and snatched it back. Artemis rolled back over onto his back.

"Calm down. You are beginning to sound like Captain Short." Artemis said dryly. Derek rolled his eyes and snorted.

"I was TRYING to sound like her." Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Can I come in? Are you both dressed?" came Mai's voice. Derek laughed and didn't answer.

"We are fully clothed." Artemis said after a minuet. For some reason Derek and Mai though that was really funny. He shook his head. Would he ever understand other people? He doubted it. Mai entered the room, slamming the door behind her, and hopped onto Artemis' bed. She swung her feet over the edge. Artemis smiled in pleasure to himself.

" How did it go?" he asked after a minuet of awkward silence. They both shrugged.

"As well as can be expected. We are going to be up to our ears in trouble trying to help them, AND keep up with our schoolwork AND keep up with our other…. operations. " She twisted around to look at Artemis. " Do you think your parents will help them?" He nodded.

"After I tell them what the fairies did for them. I am sure they will. Butler and Juliet will help them too, you realize." Mai nodded.

"Good. Lets just hope the negations and such will turn out OK." Derek and Artemis nodded. "Lets hope it does not end up in…" she paused, closing her eyes. "In war."

The fairy swung the cord up onto the roof, where it latched on with a soft clang. He winced, and looked around, hoping that no one had heard. Gripping the rope tightly he began to climb up the side of the wall. He heaved himself over the edge, and stood there grinning. It was starting. The rest of his team heaved themselves over the wall. He turned to them, a sneer on his face. The Mud Men stared back at him blankly. He had mesmerized them. He needed Mud Men to complete this job, unless he wanted to lose his magic. Looking each one in the eyes, he slowly and carefully outlined what each would do, his tone layered with Mesmer. Obediently they followed him, leaping across the multiple roofs. He stopped and motioned to the Mud Men.

"Here." He intoned. He touched his headset. "Done?" he asked.

"Of course. You doubt me?" a female voice sounded in here ear, lightly teasing.

"Never." He replied flirtatiously. Then speaking to the Men. "Go" They obeyed, drilling through the roofs soundlessly, courtesy of his friend. Also courtesy of his friend, all the alarms had been turned off. This was too easy. He laughed. He laughed more as the Mud Men, his slaves, dragged the Mud Man that he wanted out of the cell. He laughed as The Mud Man faced him, the same desire to kill, and overpower in the Mud Man's eyes, that he felt in his heart. The Mud Man bowed.

"I was hoping one of you might come. There is always opposition, in any race." The Mud Man hissed. The fairy laughed.

"Together, my friend, we shall be the ruin of all. But first, Artemis Fowl."

It had begun…

Ehem…hello everybody! That was a bit longer…. I tried to make it longer because I'm going out of town…I wont be able to post another chapter for a week or more… ::sobs::

I'll try to write more chapters to download when I get back…. OK?

In this chapter, I left a few hints about the romance, and something that looks like a plot hole, but really isn't, it's a hint of something that will happen in later chapters. Anyone who figures it out, or the romance, will get E-cookies, k? lol

Does anyone like my new bad guy? Anyone's guesses on his 'friend'? Pretty easy, really. Lol

I think that's all…except that it's going to be H/T. That seems to be the more popular answer. Even though most of you didn't answer…. ::glares:: lol
