Chapter 8: Love and Gold

Artemis and Holly rushed downstairs to tell Butler the situation there in. The Opal Koboi situation, not the does he love me situation. Butler, Artemis and Holly rushed to the car. With Butler in the front driving and Artemis and Holly in the back they left to go to the 'Koboi Palace' or whatever she calls it.

"Koboi Palace?" asked Artemis

"That's what she calls her house. Don't ask me why." Answered Holly.

"But, it's not like she's royal or anything."

Holly just shrugged her shoulders. "She likes to be known as the princess of darkness and beauty. Or so I've heard."

"Great, were dealing with a mentally challenged pixie. This should be fun."

"Where exactly is this palace?" interrupted Butler while still driving.

"Take a left on the street up a head, then keep driving down that road for about 20 minutes, I'll tell you more once we get closer." Said Holly.

Butler nodded as he turned into the street.

Meanwhile…

Opal was watching everything from her surveillance camera. Don't ask me how she gets a camera everywhere Artemis is present. Lets just say that one night he was asleep and one night a small computer chip got planted in his eye. Don't ask how.

"Opal there coming

for us. They want to take our gold, I can feel it." Said one of her pixie servants.

"I know I know, don't worry. It's all according to plan…" Laughed Opal evilly.

Artemis, Holly and Butler broke into a window in the 'Koboi Palace.'

"Do you know where were going Holly?" asked Artemis.

"Of course. Every evil villain has a secret safe where they keep their stolen treasures. We just need to find out where it is. The problem is, I don't know."

"I do." Said Artemis.

"How?"

"I'm a villain myself Holly and it would be pretty dump if I didn't have a secret safe. It's either behind a painting, under the bed, in the closet or in the middle of a high security room."

"Where shall we go first?"

"I'm guessing since it's Opal…the high security room."

Opal watched as the three made there way towards the gold coins. Artemis was smart. But not that smart. It was true that it was in a high security room. But not all of it. Some was in there. Some was under her bed. Some was in a closet. And some was behind a painting. She knew that once they figure that out that they would have to split up if they wanted to get the job done. Including Artemis and Butler.

She thought that once she gets the pesky man servant away then she could have Artemis pinned down like a bowling pin. It didn't matter if Holly was there or not. She knew she could take her. (At least she thinks she could take her.)

Several of Opal's body Guards came rushing towards them. One by one they captured Holly, Artemis and even Butler. Although it did take five for him. It took two for Holly. She may be short but there's a lot of energy in that elf. Although for Artemis one single punch and he was out like a light.

Holly and Butler were put in jail cells as for Artemis; he was carried into Opal's bedroom.

"Put him on the bed." Demanded Opal.

They placed Artemis on the bed and left them alone. Opal snaked on top of Artemis as his eyed bolted open.

"Wh-where am I?" asked a week Artemis.

"You're in my room Arty."

"Opal?"

"Yes."

"Don't ever call me that again."

He pushed her off of him and tried to make and escape for the door but Opal dodged in front of him and crashed her lips onto his. She pushed him up against a wall and deepened the kiss. She tried to slipe her tongue in but Artemis wouldn't let her instead he pushed her off of him searching for air.

"What was that for?" he asked.

"I like you Artemis. And I want you." Opal stepped closer and closer to him after each and every word she spoke.

"Who says that you can get what you want."

"Me."

She placed her lips on his again but this time so she managed to push her tongue through. Artemis tried to stop, he really did, but this was a sensation that he never felt before. Much better then the time that Holly kissed me. Thought Artemis. Wait a minute…Holly! He had completely forgetting about Holly!

I can't do this.

Yes you can.

Says Who?

Says Holly. She said that the kiss meant nothing remember?

Yea, but she didn't mean it.

Says who?

Says Holly. It was written in her eyes. I know when someone is lying trust me.

Suit yourself.

Artemis let go of Opal and made an escape for the door.

Okay, so Holly didn't end up dealing with the police in this chapter. But she will next chapter. In this one who found out that Artemis does have feelings towards Holly, and that Holly and Butler are in a jail cell together. Will they escape? Will Butler rescue Artemis? Who will win Opal or Holly? Will they get the gold and keep the species a secret? Find out next chapter, and don't forget to review!!!!
