DISCLAMIER:I DO NOT OWN ARTEMIS FOWL EION COLFER DOES. AND NO I DO NOT OWN SHIKON NO TAMA, RUMIKO TAKAHASHI DOES!

Holly took another step back and turned to leave but was stopped by a hand in her shoulder. "Holly…." Artemis whispered with a soft expression. She held her breath for a couple of seconds as tears started to form in her eyes. Biting her bottom lips she took his news in. She shook her head as if to rid of the thought of Artemis marrying and pushed him away. She ran out of the room and down the long hallway until she was in her room. She slammed her door closed and locked it. Breathing was so complicated at that moment, her eyes were too blurry with tears, her breath heavy and her legs felt like rubber ready to be bent. She fell down to the floor with a 'thud' and embraced herself as tears ran down her face. A sob escaped her lips and she was shocked to actually hear it herself. This had been an act she knew it. And yet it hurt so much. Since she heard his news she had planned to make him believe she was in a way in love with him maybe that way he'd give up the jewel faster and not resist.

But..this feeling…what was it?...it did hurt…it was no act….she did feel pain…She groaned lifting herself from the floor and dropped herself in the bed with a sigh. "what's the matter with me?.."she whispered to herself. She didn't expect an answer and yet she received one. "have you ever thought of you loving the mud boy?" a familiar voice asked. Startled she shot up out of bed and stood in a fighting stance. Slowly she scanned the room for any other living creature but found none. "hahaha" it laughed. "show yourself…" she said. "take the communicator will you not?" it said. She looked around puzzled before deciding to do as told. As she took hold of the device her only reaction was a shocked one.

"F-foaly?" she whispered. He glared at her and sighed. "Why didn't you tell me?" he asked not looking at her. "Foaly you would never understand…" she started but stopped when he looked up at her with narrowed eyes. "You perfectly know that the jewel must remain in its rightful place…if it were brought here it would only cause trouble and nothing more….the..youkai… they would follow…they could destroy everything….Holly…we would be in danger as well as the people and humans…."

"But…Sool said he would use the jewel to the people's advantage…lately…humans have come close to discovering our existence… we can't let that happen…the jewel would protect us…and you know it…" Foaly sighed and shook his head gently. "He has brain washed you…." He whispered with disappointment. Holly frowned her hazel eyes full with regret.

"I'm sorry…." She whispered. He stared at her and sighed. "Tell me Holly, have you thought of what you will tell Artemis after you steal the jewel from him?" he asked. Holly shook her head and stood silent. "The jewel isn't his anyway…" she said looking down. Foaly grinned his know-it-all smile and shook his head. "That, Holly my dear, is where you are wrong. You see the jewel does belong to Fowl. A couple of years ago the jewel belonged to a priestess. She was the guardian of this jewel. She fought to protect it every day. Demons came from every where seeking the power of this ornament. The priestess had one sole friend, Angeline Fowl, They were about 21 when the priestess gave the jewel to Angeline to care for. Angeline did not know of its secrets and sent it home to Japan when the priestess died the day after. The family of her now lost friend was shocked to receive the jewel since they thought of it a curse and nothing more. They feared the creatures, demons, would come after them and decided to turn the ornament In to a shrine near by. Ever since then the jewel has remained there. it is said that it can grant protection and power, also it was said to be able to grant a wish, any wish for that matter, the point is that Angeline never found out about its power until today….Artemis found interest in the jewel and did his own research. When he found out what it did..he immediately decided to retrieve it…I do not know for what purpose but I do know that he wants it badly…" Foaly explained. Holly stared at him taking in the story. Now she understood why Sool needed the jewel so much. She sighed and said "thank you for telling me this but…what is the name of the jewel?" Foaly cocked his head to the side with curiosity and said " I thought you would have guessed by now the name is Shikon No Tama. Jewel of the four souls…"

Usuanitheslayer: Okay! Done so yeah I could not think of a name for the jewel so I simply used the name and in a way purpose of it from the anime Inuyasha. Im sure you guys have heard of it. Well hope you enjoyed I know it might be a bit boring but I just needed to explain why they wanted the jewel. Please review!
