Usuanidemonslayer: Hey people! Guess what? This story is coming soon to an end!!! What will happen? Read and find out! Hope you enjoy and remember REVIEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Artemis smiled at himself in the mirror and fixed his tie properly. He let his now long hair fall down wildly making him look wild himself. His suit was the usual except that the jewel hanging from his neck made it seem different. He fingered the ornament a content smile on his face. Holly… this will be yours… he thought and turned to leave.
"Damn…" Holly cursed under her breath as she pulled down the hair brush on her long auburn hair ridding of the tangles. Artemis had asked her out to dinner today and she had accepted, after all this was the opportunity she had been waiting for. Today she would take the jewel and go back to her people. Daisy had left that morning which meant there was no problem anymore. She sighed and shook her head. I'm not sure I want to do this anymore… what am I going to tell him afterwards? … I know I love him and maybe Foaly was right…The jewel should have stayed where it belongs… back in Japan…But I can't back down anymore I have to do it… She sighed again and took a dagger from under her bed placing it inside her coat. She held a handful of black pebbles and placed them in her jacket's left pocket. A dagger caressed her soft skin under her red dress. It was pressed to her flesh in her thigh under the dress. Her red high heels laced up to her knee and within them explosives were held. (They are explosives) She smiled to herself and took a hairpin from her purse gently accommodating it in her head to hold her hair in place. She was ready to go on her date but she wasn't ready to betray him…not yet….
Holly walked down the staircase to find Artemis already waiting for her at the entrance of the manor. Artemis stared at her and gasped. She had dressed simply but she was still beautiful. But there was something odd about her she seemed nervous… He shrugged off the thought and extended his arm offering it to her. She smiled in despite of herself. She took the offered arm and they both walked out of Fowl Manor and into the awaiting limousine. After a couple of minutes of driving they reached an elegant house. "Where are we?" Holly asked looking around the huge driveway. "This is where I use to come whenever I was tired of the manor. I wanted to share it with you. It is special the first real estate my father gave to me as a birthday gift. It is managed by many servants but they were given the day off except for three. They are the ones who will be attending us tonight"
Holly nodded and they both walked up the stairs to the main door. Butler hurried out the limousine and followed them. The door opened in the first knock to reveal a young maid.
"Master Artemis welcome" She said leading them into the living room. "Dinner will be served shortly" She said and bowed to them. "Shall I take your coat?" She asked and Artemis nodded handing her his coat. She moved toward Holly to take her coat as well but she clung to it and shook her head. "Are you sure Holly? It is a bit hot in here" Artemis insisted but she shook her head and answered "I'm fine thank you, It's a bit cold" He nodded and motioned the girl to leave. She did and returned shortly to announce that dinner would now be served guiding them into the dinning room.
Holly looked around, a small table was at the center of the room with plates, glasses, and all the utensils needed for a proper meal" There were many paintings of fruits and vegetables all over which made her smile. Artemis led her to the table pulling the chair back so that she may sit. She sat down and smiled gently at the sight of the jewel around his neck. Before she could ask him to let her see the jewel the doors opened and Butler came in with other three maids following him. They brought the meal for the night with a smile and a twinkle to their eyes. They could not be older than 21.
The maid from before smiled and placed down a plate before Artemis in the process winking at Holly who was sitting next to him.
Holly blushed and looked down as her food was set before her. She had to do the job and fast. After the table was filled with food the three maids left the room and Butler stood a few feet away from them. Take out the big mud man, Butler, first then the boy. Holly remembered Sool's orders. She sighed and stood, there was no time left for eating. Besides they had brought meat for the meal and she hated the fact they had killed a poor animal. She smiled at Artemis and stood up walking toward Butler. Artemis stared at her puzzled by her actions and she looked back with a reassuring smile. "Butler… can I tell you something?" Holly asked as she reached him motioning him to bent down for he was taller than her. He smiled and nodded doing as he was told. She swallowed and hoped it would work. She placed both her fingers on his neck and next thing poor Butler knew he was on the ground unconscious.
Artemis rose to his feet startled. "What did you do?!" He exclaimed but she was already heading his way dagger drawn ready to slash at him any minute now. She jumped and kicked him on the stomach. Artemis saw this and quickly dodged but she kept throwing fists and kicks not waiting for him to react. "What are you doing?!" He yelled and dodged a kick. "The jewel" she said and kicked him in the face sending him hard against the wall. Artemis stared at her in horror blood dripping down his lip. "What are you doing?" He asked again wide eyed. And so she told him everything leaving out the fact that she too loved him. Artemis stared at her and sighed. "Good thing Butler trained me.." He whispered and stood up slowly barely managing to stand in his fighting stance. "How could you Holly?" Artemis said launching at her barely missing her face. She dodged out of the way and brought her knee up slamming it against his stomach. Artemis gasped but did not fall instead he brought his fist up her chin making her stumble back. She rubbed her chin and glared. This was getting out of hand!
Artemis took a deep breath and kicked at her. She caught his leg and punched down as pain traveled up his thigh. Before she could do more damage, he let himself fall back in his hands kicking the air and her face as well. She lost her grip on him and she fell back onto her back. Artemis quickly moved forward landing on her. Her body between his legs and her arms pinned to her sides. "I thought you loved me…" Artemis whispered his eyes turning dull making Holly look away. "I do… but…my people come first….Artemis…I'm…" She did not finish since he was no longer staring at her but at the doorway. Holly wriggled under him until she was able to look at the same direction as him. What she saw shocked her. An angry Daisy stood in the doorway gun in hand ready to fire. "damn…" Both Artemis and Holly whispered at the same time……
