Chapter 1

LXHB HQ, Somewhere in America...

The sliding glass doors opened, and all attention was directed to them. These men had been there for hours, and needless to say, they were not happy.

Two figures entered the room, and they were recognized as the recruitment girls. The first girl was a red-blonde, and she wore a red leather jacket and jeans, the second girl was a dirty blonde, and she wore a cute t-shirt and jeans. The t-shirt had a picture of Ryo Bakura, one of the men in the room, and he looked thoroughly puzzled as to why someone would be wearing a t-shirt with his picture on it.

"Hello," the first girl said, "I am Captain Rita and my associate is Captain Lynn. I suppose you wonder why you are all here?"

There was a murmured yes, and the girls smiled, "Please sit down then, and we will explain everything."

As they sat down at the table, Artemis could not help but realize that something was wrong with the girls' eyes. He was not quite sure what it was, but their eyes were almost lifeless, there were no emotions in those eyes.

"First of all, we would like to welcome each of you, and introduce you to the others, if you have not done so yourself," Lynn said, and motioned to the first three boys.

"Ryo Bakura and Atemu Motoh from Domino City. Malik Ishtar from Egypt. Each one posses a millennium item."

Each of the boys stood up and acknowledged themselves. Jou grinned and stood up, "I suppose you didn't want to introduce them with me, because you were afraid 'dat I'd outshine them all!"

"Ah..um..Not exactly, Mr. Katsuya. Actually, we weren't exactly sure what you did..." Rita whispered in Lynn's ear, and Lynn nodded, "I suppose, you are our streetwise expert."

Jou grinned, "Streetwise...I like that!"

Malik whispered to Bakura, "That's because he doesn't know what it means."

"Hey! I do so know what it means! ....I think."

"Anyways," Lynn continued, "This is Jounouchi Katsuya, from Domino City, our streetwise expert."

After Jou had delivered a speech, and was forced to shut up, Rita motioned to the next three boys, "Misters Fred and George Weasly, and Draco Malfoy. They all are wizards. Fred and George are the best in their field when it comes to setting traps for the enemies. Draco Malfoy, is quite knowledgeable in the dark arts, and that will give us an advantage against our enemies."

Each one stood up (actually, Fred and George high-fived each other, and were about to brake out the butterbeer, when Lynn pointedly mentioned that drinks would be served after the meeting).

Lynn introduced the next two men, er man and a woman, Beast Boy and Raven, "Two members of the famed Teen Titans, each one specializes in their own areas. Beast Boy is a master of shapeshifting, and Raven posses great telepathic and telekinetic powers."

"And last but most certainly not least, Artemis Fowl and Butler," Rita nodded to the end of the table where Artemis and Butler sat, away from everyone, "Mr. Fowl is a veritable genius in every subject, and Butler is our weapons expert."

"Which only leaves us. We are the team leaders, and we have our own specialties, to be revealed over time. Any questions?"

"Um, yeah." Beast Boy tentively raised his arm, "What exactly are we doing here?"

The two girls smiled, and pulled down a large white screen, "Slides!"

"You see, it all starts a few years ago..."

Las Vegas, Nevada. Two Years Previously.

A cloaked figure hurries down the wet, dark street, and looking around, slips into a side alley.

The figure comes to a wooden door and raps three times upon the door. A bar slides over and two eyes look out.

"Password?"

"Damn it Marcia! Its wet out here, let me in!"

"Oh, of course..."

The door swung open and the figure entered inside. Throwing off the wet coat, the beautiful girl grins, "Is everyone here?"

Inside the small, run-down room, seated in various places around the room, were a group of girls. This group of girls was known as the BHU, and are notorious in the underworld. BHU stands for Bishonen Hunters United. Over the past years, they have been secretly gathering man traps and tranquilizer guns, and lots and lots of wine.

Their main goal in life was to hunt down every bishonen in the world, and take them under their control.

They had grown in numbers, recruiting girls by seducing them with the idea of finding a perfect man for each. Slowly, they had become very large, and they were a threat to bishonen everywhere.

They had at first captured neighborhood boys, then all the bishonen in their city, and then, well you get the idea. Most recently, they had captured Orlando Bloom and Josh Hartnett. These two men had been the last resistance against the BHU, and now they were captured.

Now the BHU were about to embark on their largest scheme yet. They had hired many great inventors and had them create a machine that would bring bishonen from books and television shows to life.

If this happened, there would be no resisting them and they would conquer every man on the planet!

LXHB HQ, In the same place it was five minutes ago.

"Now you see why we must stop this evil plot? We cannot allow these villains to get away with their scheme!" Rita shook her head in disgust, "That is why we have brought you here. You are the LXHB, the last hope of the LHR!"

"LXHB?" Jou tilted his head, "LHR? Is that like, the CIA or something?"

"Ah...sort of. The LHR, is the Last Hope Resistance. It is the highly elite organization that is called in to work on subjects, when all other organizations fail," Lynn explained, "Rita and I are top members who take our orders from none other than the top commander. As for the LXHB, I think you'd rather not know what it means."

But, Jou said he'd annoy her until she told him, so she did. "LXHB, stands for the League of Extraordinarily Hot Bishonen."

There was a cry of either outrage or delight, the two captains could not tell which. After the noise had settled down, Draco stood up, "If we pray tell, are as hot as you describe us to be, why have we not been captured by the BHU?"

Rita grinned, "The BHU have not captured you because they simply do not believe you exist. Its as simple as that."

"And why do we not exist?" Artemis asked, interested in the answer.

"Because outside of your own homes and families, you are no more then a bunch of characters from books and TV shows. Which of course, we obviously know is not true."

A hushed silence fell over the room, and Lynn whispered to Rita, "They were not supposed to know that."

Rita blinked twice, "Oh. I forgot," she shrugged sheepishly, "Accidents happen right?"

"And the shock of learning that they aren't supposed to exist is an accident?"

"Yeah, I guess so..."just then, her cellphone rang, and she answered it. Two hundred decibels of screaming force came at her, and she fell to the ground. After the sound died down, a disheveled Rita turned off the phone, then quickly got to her feet. "I guess the top man doesn't think so."

Lynn's beeper went off, and she glanced at it, then turned on the lights, "Let's move, folks! There's an emergency and we are needed NOW!"
