HEY HEY HEY!
Artemis Glared at her and raised an eyebrow. "You just got done with giving me a big speech on me not being careful when you, yourself entered a car with no idea on where we are going." He kept him voice even when his emotions were raging. His mind was racing. Who the hell is this girl and why the hell did she give me such a hard time… his thoughts stopped suddenly. "You already knew where I was staying…"
She smiled almost apologetically "Yes, I did. As soon as you entered 50-miles within my 'eadquarters one of my partners began keeping an eye on you." She smiled innocently "No affiance Mr. Fowl but we consider you as a mahor (A/N- remember she has a Spanish accent, h's are silent and j's are pronounced like h) crime boss."
Artemis laughed, uneasy, he had been followed without Butler ever realizing it "I prefer the term successful businessman."
Mulch snorted "Right, you're just a successful businessman, I'm just an honest, hard working entrepreneur and Butler is you're mild mannered manservant." He gave Keline a hard questioning look. "So what was so valuable in that retched asylum that you lowered your standards to get it?"
Keline gave him an impish smile. She opened up her horrible pink purse again and pulled out a small blood red skull the size of the palm of her hand. It was so simple yet it gleamed in unearthly beauty. Artemis felt his breath catch in his chest, there was something familiar about it, and it intrigued him. Mulch whistled in amazement.
Keline's eyes lit up in a passionate fire. "About fifty years ago, stone skulls like this started to show up supposedly made a thousand years ago. No one could understand 'ow they were made because there was no tool marks. This little one is the prototype made before the others, do you know 'ow much they would pay for this?"
Artemis leaned in enchanted "They?"
"The Faeries, They are the ones after all who made these skulls"
