In a Room Somewhere Above Ground- Spiro and the Mysterious Fairy

Spiro faced the elf in front of him, a thoughtful expression on his face.

"So you have a grudge against our dear Artemis, as I do. If I join with you, we will destroy him, using your powers and my technology and money. Then we shall turn our efforts to the LEP, and destroy them. Am I correct?" Spiro said slowly. A cat-like malicious sneer spread across the fairy's face.

"Exactly. I have a friend who is a…technology expert, but she doesn't have the funds, or the connections. I used up many of my last funds, getting you out of that jail. So, my friend, will you join with us?" The fairy met Spiro's eyes, and a chill went down Spiro's spine. There was no pity in those eyes, just cold ice. This man…ah…fairy would dispose of him as soon as he became disposable. But Spiro would watch him…this fairy would not be the match of him…he hoped… but he had to take this chance. He would do anything to get back at Artemis Fowl…anything…. Slowly he nodded.

"I am with you." He said quietly, but determinedly. He paused, and a smile spread across the fairy's face. "If I am with you…then what shall call you?" The fairy sat back, with a devious smile on his face.

"For the present…call me…. call me…Vindex…yes…for now call me Vindex…" Vindex gave a low chuckle, as though this amused him.

"Do you have any plans?" Spiro asked. Vindex's eyes glittered with anticipation.

"First…before we start with out dear little Arty…I have one little thing I need to accomplish…"


Police Plaza- Holly

After Raven left, Holly wandered around doing random paperwork, and other useless things. When she bothered to look around at her fellow officers, she could see they felt as stunned as she did. She propped her head up on her elbows and stared blankly at the wall of her cubicle. She knew this was not like her, to be this…inactive, but she had always been a bit paranoid about the Mud Men discovering them. A thoughtful look came across her face. There was something she should remember, something that would happen when the Mud Men were discovered…

Fowl…

But that name was washed away after what happened next.


Police Plaza- Root

Root screamed loudly at the unfortunate pixie. The pixie whimpered and gulped in fright. She really should have gone into the entertainment business like she had always wanted to. Root grabbed her by the shirt and threatened her in a low menacing voice. But then again, she couldn't blame him. This time.

Root opened his mouth to yell again, but stopped short at what happened next.


Police Plaza- Foaly

Foaly stood in his Ops booth, his fingers flying over the console, doing nothing in particular, doing random checks. They all needed to wake up; everyone was in shock. They needed to plan peace talks, find allies, and make plans. But everyone was acting like they were asleep. Including himself. His eyes flicked over the screen until they rested on a red blinking light that had suddenly appeared on his screen, just at the moment that another siren began ringing out through Police Plaza.

An elf that was sitting in her cubicle, an elf that yelling at a pixie, and a centaur that was doing checks in his booth, all had the exact same thought, at the same time.

D'arvit, what had happened now?!?


Ehem…hello every body! I am soo sorry that this chapter was short, but I'm having MAJOR writers block, but I promised you guys a chapter…I do realize that Holly and Foaly are OOC in this chapter, but they are both in shock. Holly was a bit paranoid, about the Mud Men finding the People, and she's in shock. And well…Foaly is blaming himself for the People's discovery since his technology didn't discover them. So yeah. Please forgive me. And about Vindx's name…well…im not sure if my latin translator is right.

And PLEASE review the chapter. Maybe if you guys review enough it will make me overcome my writers block. So PLEASE PLEASE review. Please?
