Chapter 2:Lost Memories
Haven,Underground
"Foaly where do you think Opal is hiding?"Holly asked"Well Ive been searching with satellites and scans but Ive picked up nothing so far." "Then do you think I could get permission to look around on surface for more clues on Opals where abouts?" Foaly snorted "With commander Sool in charge? you would be lucky if you ever got to drive a shuttle again." "I suppose so." but then again illegal was always faster Holly mused. She finished up her patrol and called a old friend "Hello?" a gruff voice answered "Yes Mulch I need your help." "Hey Holly, what for?" "Well Artemis went and got himself kidnapped by Opal, and I need a way up to the surface." "Holly Ive noticed whenever you call me its for a save the world type thing, and my skin burns up there." "I never said you had to come with me you just need to show me a way up if you know what I mean." "Of course Holly but when you get Artemis back he is going to have to talk to me about a little fee..." Holly interrupted sounding annoyed"Whatever Mulch I just need a way up." "Sure thing Holly I'll be right over." Holly waited and in a few minutes the earth started shifting and Mulch popped out in front of her his wiry beard roaming all over the place "I know just the place to go to, if you want to get aboveground just follow me." later Holly found herself wandering a empty dwarf tunnel with Mulch "Where does this lead Mulch?" Holly asked "It leads to a abandoned shuttle port, smugglers use to use it to go aboveground." "So this is how you always managed to get above and get in so much trouble." said Holly her sense of justice getting the best of her. "Holly if you want to go rescue Artemis,this is the only way I know how to do it fast. If you want to go shine Sool's shoes and appeal to his greater nature you go on ahead." of course thats if Sool has a greater nature Mulch thought. "Fine we'll do it your way Mulch" Holly sighed they finally got out of the tunnel and to the shuttle port. "Now all you have to do is steer this shuttle and you should come out in Dublin." "Thanks Mulch." "Anytime Holly." Mulch smiled and walked back down the tunnel. Holly looked over the shuttle. Mulch calls this a shuttle? I would call it scrap metal she thought but I suppose criminals cant afford to be picky. She got in and started the journey to Dublin.
Opal's laboratory, Japan
Artemis was thinking of a way out of this cell, but the cell was made of concrete just like th one he had trapped Holly in a couple of years ago. He cringed at the thought. The only ways out was the window and the door, just then Opal came in to gloat no doubt "Artemis I just thought I would cue you in on my plan since soon you won't remember it anyways." She said in that uppity voice of hers "First I captured you to use as bait to get Holly to come here, next I will send you both back in time with your memories wiped so there will be know one left to stop me from breaking me out of jail then in a few years I will take over the world and you and Holly wont be able to do anything about it!" She laughed, Why is it Artemis thought that all evil genii tell you there plan then yell when something goes wrong and they cant figure out why there plan failed. Of course the ego issue with Opal didn't help... "Opal you truly are a genius now." He said "Now go run along and tell all your friends that you finally succeeded in life. Oh but wait you don't have any friends bummer, perhaps you could go talk with some lemurs I'm sure they would understand your problems perfectly well as any friend." "Fowl you will pay for that comment" and with that she bashed him against the wall. He heard a crack and pain shot up his from his shoulders, she probably broke my collar bone and with that he faded out of conciseness. When he woke up he heard Opal say something about Holly in Dublin then he fell asleep again.
Fowl Manor,Dublin
Holly had arrived at Dublin and then proceeded to go to the Fowl Manor to look for clues about the whereabouts of Opal. She went into the house and disabled the security system then she went through the house, it was empty strange she thought but in the last parlor in the house the T.V. was on playing a message of Opal speaking "To Holly of the LEP." she said in gnomish "I have Artemis Fowl now in my laboratory in Japan, if you wish to rescue the pathetic mud boy then come to this address" she said the address in a overconfident tone. "You must be there before the end of this week, if you are not I will dispose of this annoying pest." the message ended it was a trap no doubt Holly thought but she had to rescue Artemis before he got himself in more trouble.
Meeting Point, Japan
Opal waited impatiently. "Merv what time is it again?" the Brill brother looked at his digital clock again "I believe its 7:45 pm your greatness." "Will that elf ever arrive? I mean the nerve of her if I have to wait any longer I'll just kill the boy now!" currently Artemis was stuck in the laboratory still trying to figure a way out of his cell, of course his injuries didn't help his progress. Suddenly a glimmer appeared in front of Opal, the Brill brothers trained there guns on it. Holly appeared with her Neutrino facing Opal "Give the boy back Koboi." "Know what captain you looked to stressed out why don't you take a little nap." A neutrino blasted Holly in the back she hadn't noticed the two brothers hiding in the shadows. "Artemis." she said before she was knocked out. "Well that was a ridiculously easy plan I'm surprised my future self didn't try it in the first place." said Opal.
Opal Koboi's laboratory, Japan
Artemis was startled out of his train of thought when one of the Brill brothers tossed Holly into the cell. She was bleeding there were two neutrino blast in her back. Artemis got up and walked to her "Holly? Are you okay?" he asked "Artemis? Her eyes flicked open looking him over "Holly what happened?" he asked she sat up and he pushed her back down "you need to heal first before you try to get up" Artemis explained, already blue sparks were covering her body and repairing the burnt skin and blood loss. "Well basically as I see it you went and got overconfident and got your self kidnapped, so then I had to come illegally rescue you and look where that got me..." Artemis chuckled then winced Holly looked him over again he seemed to have a neutrino blast in his chest but something else was different she couldn't quite place her finger on it, but then she figured it out Artemis's shoulders were askew and he looked pretty beat up all I all. "Let me heal that." She sat up blue sparks arched at her finger tips and flew over to Artemis's body and healed his injuries. Artemis groaned a the sparks replaced his broken collar bone and straightened it out then finally healed his chest. Just then Opal walked in while her two henchmen tied Holly and him to a chair " I'm glad you two could have your heart felt reunion, but I'm afraid you wont remember each other soon." she put a gas mask over Artemis's face and he passed out. "What are you doing?" asked Holly as she struggled against her bonds "Why I'm just wiping your memories so you can't stop my plans." Merv put a gas mask over her head and she fell asleep...
