Chapter 13

Same note as always

As the car ride went on, Kay was really restraining the urge to gouge Jay's eyes out. He was a grown man fighting with a 14 year old kid. And the sad part is, he was losing. Holly wasn't much of a help either. These 2 hours are just really going to fly by. He thought.

"I've seen chairs with a greater intelligence than you."

"Well, at least I'm not some scrawny little pale kid who does nothing but sit in front of the computer!"

"Hey! I resent that!" Artemis yelled.

"No you resemble that." Kay shot back.

"Don't be mean to him," Holly interfered. "It takes a computer a lot of time to bleach one's skin."

"Thanks Holly, that was really helpful." So that was how it went for the next two hours. It was either Artemis and Jay fighting, or Holly and Kay trying to shut them up. They failed pathetically. So everyone was happy when they landed.

The sun was starting to rise through the dense trees. Fresh dew was still clinging onto leaves and grass. There was a smell of woods and fresh air when the four got out of the car.

"So where's the ship?" Holly asked.

"It's over near that clearing," Kay answered pointing near a clearing roughly a hundred yards away.

"So we need to think of our plan of attack," Artemis said sitting in the lotus position on the grass.

"Boy! What are you doing!" Jay yelled pulling Artemis up off the ground. "This is no time to be relaxing on the ground."

"I was getting ready to plan our strategy my short tempered and ignorant friend. That is what I do. I don't go into the major danger; I plan the strategy for other people to go into danger. Wait! That didn't come out rig-"

He didn't get a chance to finish. Holly had him pinned to the car, and she looked pissed! Frankly she didn't like hearing about how Artemis stays behind so other people can go into danger, and her eyes showed it. It was Artemis's lucky day because before Holly could turn him into a part of the car Kay pulled her off him.

"I said that didn't come out right! What I meant was I really have no experience with a gun of any kind. You fairies need to let people finish before you try to turn them into an appendix of a car."

"Whatever."

"Ok let's get down to business," Jay said pulling out a little computer from his jacket. "We have a 3D blue print of the ship. We just need a plan that doesn't involve the robots coming or getting us blown to bits. Any idea pale boy?"

"As a matter of fact yes, I do."

After seeing the blue print, Artemis thought of a plan. They would divide into two groups. One would disengage the robots and save Foaly. The other would find Sool and Withahalf, and take 'em down. It would be Holly and Kay in one group and Jay and Artemis would be in the other. Obviously Jay and Artemis weren't jumping with joy at the groups.

"Why should I have to work with some one who couldn't tell the difference between a toad and a frog?"

"Why should I have to work with some snobby kid who thinks he's better than everyone else?" Jay whined.

"Because you are probably the only one who can disengage Foaly's cell and the robots." Holly explained.

"And so Artemis doesn't get killed." Kay finished.

"Fine," Jay and Artemis mumbled. So after a minor fight the group broke into pairs and stared another save the world kind of thing.
