"Come in or die waiting for me to answer the door!" she yelled.
The person she had least wanted to see in the world walked in, holding a science textbook. She groaned loudly.
"I HATE textbooks!" she complained. "As do I, much as I hate to agree with you." Artemis sat at Kira's desk.
"So, what am I learning today." she said sarcasticaly. "Basics. Just go over the first chapter, I need to use your computer."
"OK, as long as you let me watch you." "Fine. But no sarcastic comments. My own laptop was confenscated when I found it
more interesting then changing and going to PE." Kira choose not to comment.
Actualy(?), she sympathised with the annoying boy, she hated PE as well. But she still did it.
"What site are you going to?" Kira asked. "I'm breaking into the presidential computer, If you need to know. But I can't
seem to break the password, my body gaurd used to do that for me." "Oh, easy!" Kira pushed a few buttons and they were in.
"You- you're a hacker? And almost as skilled as Butler." Artemis mused. "You call your butler Butler? How rude!"
"Its his last name." Artemis stated. "Weird." Kira said distantly. "And yeah, I'm a 'hacker' my mom owns a computer shop.
I grew up watching her do everything possiable with computers."
Artemis grinned. Combined with the glow from the computer, he looked more vampirical then ever. "You don't bite people,
do you?" Kira couldn't help herself, she'd just HAD to ask him if he was a vampire or not.
"Belive it or not, vampires dont exist." Artemis said, "Oh, I get it vampires dont but fairies do." Kira said smartly.
Artemis paused. "Only if you belive hard enough," he said finally. Kira rolled her eyes. "Why did you need to get into
the Presidents web site anyway?" "Policy he needs to change. It's... for a friend." "What policy?" Kira asked suspiciously.
"About... well, I can't really tell you." "You wouldnt tell me if you could, would you?" Kira asked.
Artemis paused his frantic typing, thinking. "I... suppose... I would." "Why? You hate me remember?" Kira said dumbly.
"It's not you I hate."
"What the heck is that supposed to mean?" she asked. "It's the class. Almost every 'fact' in that textbook is wrong!
But we still have to learn it." "It is? Wait, we still have gravity dont we?" Kira asked scared. "I said almost. But, take for
example, electrons and protrons. The book is entierly out-of-date!" Artmeis said disgusted. "Yeah, I have no idea what
an electron or a protron is." said Kira. "That's the point! They aren't in the book!"
"Well, as interesting as this is I should point out that your
talking to me. "So? You could understand this, if you only payed attention." Artemis teased meanly. "I hate science!
My mom said when I was little the Ghost Fish king came and cursed me and my science skills!" "Ghost Fish king?"
Artemis asked cluelessly. "Look it up on Google, its a legend where I come from" Artemis opened a new window,
and typed in 'ghost fish king' to Google. "Theres only two sites about this." "Yeah... and I sort of mantain them both.
But whatever. The second one's better." Kira glanced at the clock. "Its been an hour." "I still need you computer.
Do you mind?" asked Artemis. "I guess not." Kira said.
He turned back to the Ghost Fish Homepage. "They eat toes?" "Only LEFT toes." Kira said impatiently.
"I see. And... what does 'Beware All Flying Gastronomical Entites' mean?" he asked. "I dunno, my brother wrote
that when we were 8." Kira said distantly "Brother?" "Yeah, acctualy were twins. You might know him he goes to your
old school." "St. Bartlbey's? I wish him luck. What's his name?" "Thom." "P'Shog? No, never met him." Artmeis stated.
"He might have gone by Thomas."
"Thomas... yes. I think we might have shared a dorm for about a week. He lasted longest, acctually."
"Only a week?"
"I'm not exactly the most livable-with person on this planet."
"Oh, really. I never would have guessed." Kira said jokingly.
Artemis nodded. "What are these links?" he asked, indicating the web page. "They go to my brothers
web page."
"I see."
As if on cue Kira's cell phone rang.
