She heard a noise.
Footsteps. A twig snapped.
She didn't move though.
She knew who it was.
She seen two figures out the corner of her eye.
A very tall one. Taller than most mud men.

"Hello, Captain," the boy said.
"Hello, Fowl," the Captain said.

He had no idea how the girl knew who his employer was. And he had no idea how his employer knew who the girl was.
The girl in question appeared to be grinning.
"A second chance," she commented.
"A fresh start," the boy said.
"But I have a request, Fowl," the captain said.
"What's that, Captain Short?"
"Could we do things a little quieter?"
Artemis chuckled.

Which, of course, he did.
R&R!
I hope you all enjoyed!
Until next time,
