Damn you, reviewers! Lol! I always feel guilty when there are lots of reviews from readers and not enough updates from me…so I've taken some time just to add another chapter. Pretty happy that everyone so far has understood the plot, as the story doesn't get much more complicated than that. Please review, I don't own Artemis, etc.

By the way, the name "Potestas" was based on the Latin word meaning "power".

Y2, The Lower Elements

Potestas sat in a meditation chamber, floating in the air. Red sparks flew through the air around him, encircling his body. He was focusing all the magic energy around him, as he would need it for the mission ahead. It had taken centuries to formulate his perfect plan, and it had not been easy. All he had known was that somehow he had to take control of the entire world beneath the surface at the end of the plan. Although the bodies of all his people had been frozen in stone, their minds had all still been working. At first he had thought of storming the underground with all his troops. But this would be foolish, he had decided. This would only result in buildings and scores of his soldiers being destroyed. He needed something that would only weaken the People of Haven, without destroying all the structures already there. Potestas had been in deep thought for many centuries when his perfect plan had finally hit. He could build the greatest bio-bomb ever known to the People. This would kill hundreds or thousands of fairies, but it would serve its cause and would not destroy all the buildings which the Avionators could later use. His soldiers could go through Haven afterwards, sweeping up survivors and using them as slaves. Potestas would once again rule the entire underground. The meditating Potestas smiled as he thought about this again…for he knew just where to find the energy to create this great weapon of destruction.

Everyone had their hands linked as the three humans and Holly stood in a circle. Holly spoke into her helmet, "Ready," and her hands began to glow. Soon the spark of magic had travelled through the entire circle, and the entire group began to fade. Suddenly, there was a pop, and they all disappeared.

LEP, The Lower Elements

The group materialised in mid-air in the middle of Foaly's office, which had been recently redesigned to actually fit Butler. Butler, Holly and Artemis all landed with loud thumps. Minerva, with her eyes closed, landed on Artemis, who also had his eyes closed. The two teenagers opened their eyes and felt themselves go red, as they saw each other, in their very compromising position. "Lucky Foaly isn't here," Artemis said, "Or I'd never live this down…"

"No, Artemis, you won't," Foaly said from his chair, whilst taking photos or the two embarrassed geniuses with a small digital camera.

"Let's talk about Artemis and Minerva later, can we?" Holly said, standing up, "Let's just get on with the task at hand." Minerva quickly got off Artemis' lap and walked over to Foaly and Holly. As Artemis stood up as well, he noticed a deep cut on his arm from the fall. Holly noticed it too, "Want me to fix it?"

"No, I'm alright," Artemis replied and Holly turned back to face Foaly. Suddenly, blue sparks began to dance around Artemis' cut, healing it magically. Artemis quickly shook the sleeve of his suit back over his arm. It wasn't time to let his secret known to fairies yet. It would surely be a recipe of disaster.

"OK," Foaly said, opening up a holographic screen, "I'll keep the formalities short. Hello, Minerva, I am Foaly, a centaur as you have no doubt noticed. You are currently underground, where all the fairies live, in the LEP headquarters. We are the the police for all of Haven, which is where most of the fairies live, and as much as it pains me to say it, we need your help on a case. Now, since we've got two geniuses here now, so we should be able to solve this case."

Foaly quickly went through all the information about the crime, and the two geniuses absorbed everything at a lightning speed. When the centaur had presented everything, including all the filters, Minerva asked, "Is it possible that the robbers used some sort of really potent magic to conceal their tracks?"

"No," Holly replied, "that magic filter should pick up on any magic used at all, and any magic would leave a mark."

"What if the magic wasn't detected by the filter?" Artemis asked.

"Impossible," Foaly rebutted, "that filter detects all magic. Warlock magic was recently added as well, so that removes that possibility."

"If you only recently added a new type of magic, doesn't that mean that there could be other types of magic that is not known?" Minerva asked.

"And if that is the case," Artemis said worriedly, "Then the People may have a far greater problem on their hands than they anticipated."

That's all for today, folks! I'll try and update ASAP. I've been trying to make an effort to make the updates faster…sorry if they're still not fast enough, but I don't really have too much time at the moment.
