Artemis handed Lena several stacks of paper. Lena was puzzled.
"Why are you giving me stacks of paper to help explain magic?" she
asked quizzingly. "They are not 'stacks of paper' they are
manuscripts on which my adventures with the fairy people are
written." said Artemis. "OK. What am I supposed to do with them?"
Lena asked. She could guess but she had never been much of a
reader and the idea of reading several long fairytales didnt appeal to
her. Artemis sighed, did he really need to tell her? "You read them,
Miss Parker." he said exasperatingly. Lena groaned. "Come back
when you've completed all four books." Artmeis said in a now-be-
gone tone. Lena took the hint and left.
3 weeks later
Lena had finaly finished the books last night. They were surprisingly
interesting. She had an addictive personality. She was surprised
when she not only became addicted to the books but to the
charecters as well. Her math book mysteriously caught fire after she
read about the tragic death of Commander Root. After dinner that
day she went to see Dr. Fowl. "Yes?" he asked impatiently when she
entered the room. "I've finished them." She said. Lena slammed all
four books on his desk causing almost everything to fall off. Seeing
as his work was on the floor Artemis was forced to pay attention.
"Congradulations?" he asked. Lena looked at him funny. "Arn't you
going to tell me why I read that?" "I thought it was quite obvious."
Artemis sighed. "Holly Short gave you magic. It mixed with your
DNA. You have powers, Lena. Unfortunatly you cannot control them
since you found out so late." "So I'm here to get training for the
magic that I never knew I had. That happened because a girl I never
met gave me magic. On an occasion of which I have no memory
of?" Lena asked. "Yes." said Artemis. "OK." said Lena, "Lets
pretend that your not nuts and that this is real. Then who would teach
me?" "Why, I would of course." he replied.
