A/N: Back! Sorry it took so long. I have news…I have officially dyed my hair! It has gone from brown to auburn. Woot! So, here is chapter five. Um…I know I left off at a weird angle, so…yeah. Enjoy!

"Oh no! I'm not teaching him again. And you know what? I think he needs to be taught a lesson." She stomped over to her duffle bag, pulled her gun out of it, aimed, and fired it straight at Artemis.

It was at that moment that Butler walked in. He analyzed the situation in an instant and jumped right in front of Artemis. He closed his eyes, waiting for impact.

There was a load bang, then silence.

He opened his eyes to see three teenage girls staring at him with their mouths slightly open. The one who had fired was now holding the gun loosely in her hand. He walked over to her and grabbed the gun. "Where did you get this?"

"Umm…eBay." She replied, trying her best to look and sound innocent.

He held it in front of her face. "This is not a toy. It is a dangerous weapon and…"

"Dude!" She interrupted, hands on hips. "Who are you? My friggin mother? You cant tell me what to do!"

He glared at her. "You could have seriously injured someone."

She snorted. "How the hell am I going to hurt anyone?"

He held up the gun as an answer.

She looked at it and held out her hand. "Give."

"No. You shouldn't even have this…"

"Its mine!"

"You could have killed someone…"

"Just hand it over!"

"Your lucky it was a dud."

"Your such a moron."

"I am going to inform your school and…"

"THEIR BLANKS!"

Butler froze. "Blanks?"

"Yeah. Ya know, the ones were they don't really do anything, just make a really loud noise?"

"I know what blanks are." He paused.

"Does your principal know you have this?"

She tapped her chin. "Uh…NO!"

He glared at her. "Alright then. I'll be keeping this." He slipped it into his pocket. "And if I hear of anything like this happening again, I'll call both schools and have this project called off. Understand?"

She ground her teeth for several moments, then nodded grudgingly.

He smiled. "Good. You may resume your project tomorrow. Good day, ladies." He led Artemis out of the room. "Artemis. Are you alright?"

Artemis straightened his suit. "Yes, old friend. I am perfectly fine. I am merely a bit shaken."

He nodded. After leading Artemis to his room, he turned and walked away. Artemis laid on his bed, thinking hard.

Lower Elements, Holly's Apartment, Same Day (I know, I know)

Holly lay on her bed, thinking hard. It wasn't that she liked Artemis. No, of course she didn't! He was a human. She was just completely and utterly in love with him. She rolled over and began banging her head on the bed post, muttering "Stupid, stupid, stupid!"

After about ten minutes of this, sporting a pounding headache, Holly stumbled out of her room and into the kitchen. She got an icepack out of the freezer, along with a pint of ice-cream, and sat down on the couch.

She flicked on the TV and began watching a romance movie that Foaly had lent her, called Brown Sugar. Half way through it, her Vid-phone rang.

She set her empty ice-cream container on the table, put her icepack back in the freezer, and pressed the accept button. "Oh, hello Foaly."

"Hi Holly. Just wanted to call and tell you that Root said you could have Fowl watch."

"Okay, thanks."

"Have you watched that movie I let you borrow?"

"I'm watching it right now. Bye!"

"What do you think of-" The centaur was cut off by Holly ending the call. She turned and walked back to the couch, pressing the play button, smiling happily to herself.
