All right, I've got up to chapter six down, and such, but with school and all, I'm going to be out of commission for a bit, though chapters WILL get done. If not Frond help me when hate mail starts pouring in my inbox.

As a normal precaution, I do not own Artemis fowl. If I did, Julius would still be alive and Opal and Foaly would be married.


Holly has her jacket on by the time she got to the large room Foaly called his 'job home.' It was actually a little unused since Alisa was born, the little centaur already staring to walk, Foaly's last update over communicator called to her during her lunch break, disturbing Holly from yet another bout of life of a certain male on the surface. As she opened the door to the Operations Booth, the centaur shoved pictures into her face. "Isn't she cute! Look at her, my little Alisa." He said, pointing at the pictures. Holly smiled, already having a set at home, at her desk and she even dumped a few on Artemis and Butler.

"So you going to see your cute little Artykins?" Holly blushed deeply, muttering something about withering carrots for brains. "Aw, come now. How long have you known each other Holly? It's been what… eight or so years- give or take the time on the Colony- and you've never done anything with him?" This time Holly pulled a little the hair that stuck out from his new tinfoil hat. She remembered the kiss… and the dream…. Shaking her head vigorously she gave Foaly a line drawing growl. Foaly knew to stop and smile. "I guess you want the present then, right?" He asked, clip-clopping to a small safe. After a few turns and clicks she could hear it open. She couldn't see what was inside, but what ever it was, it was cold inside.

"Alright kiddo. I'll only tell you once before you leave. Take this in the middle of the flight. I promise it's not a drug or something. It'll give you a boost and help you and Artemis fall in love quicker so you'll get married faster." This time he dodged the well-placed smacks until she stole one of his carrots, threatening to eat it if he didn't quit it. "Alright, alright I'm sorry! Just don't hurt my carrots." She smiled and gave it back to him. "Oh yeah, I totally forgot! Here, take this." He gave her a bag. There wasn't anything hard in there, more like clothes by how soft it was. "I packed you some extra clothes since you're going to be on vacation." He said and let her out. "Alright girly. Make me proud and have some kids!"

After the resounding cry heard, everyone knew not to piss Holly off and Foaly wouldn't be able to get his coffee in the morning for a few days.


Fowl Manor

Artemis was pacing, god have mercy on our souls. His new bodyguard Juliet was watching him, sitting on the stairs with her blue jeans and tight top. "Why are you so nervous for Holly to come here? Do you have something planned for her?" Juliet's eyes widened. "Are you finally going to ask her out? Oh that's so exciting!" She either didn't see the glare or choose to ignore it, giggling as Butler came out, utterly confused at the situation. Juliet was holding her sides, giggling like a maniac and Artemis was half glaring and half thinking and well, still pacing.

"What's wrong, Master Artemis?" He asked, placing a hand on his friends shoulder. "I don't know. Something in the pit of my stomach feels off. Maybe it was that sandwich Juliet made me." Juliet giggled even more, wiping the tears from her eyes. "You didn't tell me you didn't want a wasabi and peanut butter sandwich, Artemis. I would have made you something better like strawberry jelly and pickles." Both Artemis and Butler shivered and looked down, trying not to say anything about the girl's weird tastes. Or maybe it was her sense of humor.

Sighing, another rare thing to the boy, he looked at the large grandfather clock near the door next to what looked like a pinch of salt. Well… it was actually a mix of dried salt and basil. "What is this?" Artemis asked, looking to Butler, then figured it might be Juliet. "It's for protection against evil spirits." She said, her entire expression normal. Artemis blinked and shook his head, deciding it would have to wait another few days before putting the blond into a Ward. "Oh Artemis, I forgot to mention. Minerva is going to come by to visit." Butler said and the he froze.

"When is she coming, Butler?" He asked, turning on his old friend. "In two days, why do you want to… oh," it was then that he realized Artemis was planning to have Holly over for a few more extra days that normal. "Yes, 'oh.' Prepare another guest room, Juliet. We'll be having another guest coming tomorrow." The blond nodded and left, waiting at the top of the stairs for the time to turn to six thirty. "Good luck with Holly, guys." She said as she made her way to another spare room, the one used for Minerva. On the other side from Artemis's side of the manor.


When Holly strapped herself to the seat she looked at the ever familiar controls and she couldn't help but stretch and yawn. It would take at least half an hour to get the little shuttle to the surface so she tinkered with the controls, smiling as she got it to a human music station. As she listen to music she got started, the screens telling her everything was good to go and she pressed the ignition button.

A.N.

Don't shoot me because I do not remember how the shuttle works and such.

Smiling, she used one hand for steering, the other hand fingering the zipper open to the backpack open. They were extra clothes all right, but they were human clothes. "Maybe a present for Juliet. Son of a bitch Foaly. What a cheapskate." She said to herself, watching the map. When they got to the 'half way' point, she opened the little vial and smelled it. A song had started to play, not knowing what it was. It sounded a little familiar, and she like the lyrics.

Help me if you can
It's just that this, this is not the way I'm wired
So could you

Help me understand
You've given in to all these
Reckless dark desires

Taking the vial to her lips she drank it, shivering a little as it went down her throat. She slid the now empty vial into one of the bag pockets and sat back in her seat, listening to the song.

Lying to yourself again
Suicidal imbecile
Think about it, put it on the fault line
What'll it take to get it through to you precious
Over this. Why do you want to throw it away like this
such a mess. I don't want to watch you.

Her eyes widened as her vision began to blur a little, and she looked around. It slowly started to get worse and she reached for the communicator, trying not to panic. In her head she was cursing Foaly and making mental notes to break two of his legs and kill Artemis.

Disconnect and self-destruct one bullet at a time
What's your rush now, everyone will have his day to die

Medicated, drama queen, picture perfect, numb belligerence
Narcissistic, drama queen, craving fame and all its decadence

She realized then that the com was broken as everything started to go black.

Damn radio and its stupid symbolism.

Blue and hazel eyes shot open and she sat up, looking around. Sun blared and hurt her eyes a little and she turned the other way. She could see closet doors, a desk and a few computers. Looking down, her breasts were larger than normal. She touched them, to see if they were real, and she could feel the pressure from her finger tips .She looked at her fingers. They were long, nut brown with half-inch nails. Her eyes widened and she got up, feeling her feet touch the floor when she sat at the edge of the bed. Looking down, she had long, smooth legs. And no clothes on. Rushing to the first mirror she could find, she looked into it.

She was human with long wavy auburn hair. Her eyes were the same, one ice blue and the other a warm, calm hazel. She had a soft heart shape face and soft features. She was human… she was human.

"Artemis Fowl I'm going to strangle you."
