The rest of the night was mostly a blur. Holly had to hold him under the arms while flying. Something Artemis didn't think highly of. Also, they weren't flying very high so his bare feet some times came close to hitting the ground. Holly didn't let him change out of his PJ's either. After flying for what seemed all night they landed in a forest next to a stream. It also happened to be a shuttle port area.
Holly pulled out her communicator.
"I'm calling Foaly. Maybe he can help us." While Holly was trying to get a hold of Foaly on her communicator, Artemis was trying not to completely slice his feet open. He was mostly failing.
"Holly, any chance we could stop at a bank or something then maybe a store so I could get some thing other than pajamas?" Holly, of course, wasn't listening. She had finally gotten a hold of Foaly.
"Foaly we have a bit of a problem."
"I'll say." The sarcastic centaur answered. "Sool is running around the place yelling about, 'how the hell did a civilian get wings and a weapon?' Trouble is trying to defend you and it's really quiet a sight." Holly blushed when she heard Trouble was defending her, and then zapped back to reality.
"A fairy somehow got into Artemis's house and mesmerized his mother and Butler to kill him. Any thoughts?"
"That Artemis has some serious family issues that he needs to work out."
"Foaly! This is serious! Look, we need to get down there. Any way we could without being noticed?"
"Sure let's go to the genius centaur to solve all our problems. He said sarcastically Well let me see." There was lots of typing at speed that would shame a secretary. " You'll have to take a commercial flight and I think you'll have to go as luggage."
" Don't they check the luggage?"
"Yes but I, the great Foaly can make it so two very large boxes with little holes have already been checked. Just get 2 boxes and, before getting in, tell me, and I can make a stamp show up on the communicator screen. Then just press it onto the boxes, crawl in, and be prepared for a very uncomfortable 2 hour long ride."
"Joyful. When's the next flight?"
"5 hours."
"Ok, that gives us a little bit of time I'll call you when it's almost time." Holly hung up and turned to Artemis. "Let's get to a bank. Then you can buy your little mud man clothes. THEN we get the boxes and go to Haven."
"Sounds fair."
After more unpleasant flying, they finally reached a town. Holly stayed in a dark alley while Artemis got the money and some clothes. They were in some weird town where banks are open 24 hours 5 days a week. If looks could kill, Artemis would be dead, on the floor twitching. But he couldn't really blame them. He was a 14 year old boy in PJ's walking in a bank in the middle of the night.
"May I help you young man?" The creepy looking lady with big purple glasses asked.
"Yes I would like to make a withdraw."
"Do you have any ID?"
"Yes I do, Madam." Artemis said as he pulled out the communicator, which he programmed to have his ID on it. He showed it to the lady though she did not seem happy.
"How much would you like to withdraw Mr. Fowl?" Giving him a little withdraw form.
" I think 700 pounds should be enough," ( I have no idea how much 700 pounds is really worth, but just go with it) Artemis answered handing her back the form.
"You do know that if this is some sort of identity theft we will know who you really are in a matter of hours right?"
"Madam I know perfectly well of this, and if you don't believe I am the real Artemis Fowl, well, that's too bad." Artemis said rather smugly when the woman gave him the money. Once he had the money Artemis walked out of the bank, and went to the clothes store a couple of yards away. It is going to be a very long night. Not that it already hasn't.
AN: By the way this story will have a bit of Trouble/Holly. But it won't be solely based on romance.
