Chapter 2
Juliet wasn't getting any better. She only ventured beyond her bedroom doors once that day, and it was only to make try to make food for the remaining residences of the house.
Artemis sent her immediately back up stairs and called the family doctor.
He said give him two to three days.
That was too long of a wait; the Fowl boys needed her now.
Artemis shamefully tried to make some sort of pasta meal. He followed the recipe to a T but after three tries, it still was barely edible. In the end, they all had to settle for instant soup; which besides the MSG was probably better for them anyways.
Then Artemis proceeded on with giving Beckett and Myles there daily lessons-though this time Artemis gave it to them as he worked hard on Juliet's task for the day.
She could normall kick them all out while playing with the twins and watching T.V by mid-day.
He only got half way through the list by nightfall.
"So where were we in the story, Beckett?" Artemis asked as he sat down between their two bed this time. Of course Artemis remembered where they left off in the story; he typed up notes and made an outline of the plot. But he figured it was good to get the twins involved in the process.
"Price Arty had just went to the Oreo of Shooting Stars and now the Oreo is giving them a witch to fight of the Goblin king so that they can save Christmas!"
"It's Oracle, not Oreo, Simpleton."
"I like Oreos!"
"That's very nice to know Beckett." Artemis said. It really wasn't thought. Oreo's were at best, disgusting. But he didn't want to start an argument over Oreo's with a five year old however.
"So, we left off with Prince Arty awaiting the arrival of a super powerful witch who will come and help save them, correct?"
"Witches are so over rated nowadays. Can we make it a genie?" Myles asked.
"Genie it is then."
Prince Arty awaited the arrival of the magical genie out side the Play-Doh castle for three days and three nights. But as the sun began to rise over the third night, Prince Arty began to lose hope, for surly the magical genie would have been there by now. The prince gazed into the horizon one last time. This time however, he saw a smoggy purple cloud approaching him in the distance-
"Was it a cloud of coffee beans and chocolate?" Beckett question. Both Artemis and Myles raised an eyebrow at him in question. Their brother really did have a bizarre taste for food.
"No, Beckett."
It was the genie! At last he had-
"No, no Artemis. Not he. She. Genie JB." Myles stated then urged Artemis to continue the story. The name of the genie was not lost on him.
At last she had come! Rocked with joy, the prince ran up to greet her.
"Oh wondrous genie sent by the great Oracle-
"Oreo!" Beckett shouted. At this point, Artemis was just rolling with it.
-Oreo of Shooting Starts. I am Prince Arty of Europa." He said, bowing slightly.
"My name is JB, the great genie in all the land and I am at your service my prince."
"The Goblin king has come and his tried to ruin Christmas for us!" Prince Arty exclaimed to her. "You must help me stop him!"
"As you wish your highness." JB said. "Together, we'll destroy the Goblin king and his minions, but first I need to gather up an army of 100 men. The king thought JB to be only joking at first, but then she saw the seriousness in her eyes.
"You must be joking!" The Prince protested. "The Goblin king has easily over 1000 men! How are we supposed to beat them with only a merge 100?"
"Believe in my skills as I believe in your leadership dear king and victory will be ours..."
Both Myles and Beckett were asleep now and Artemis sighed. He was horrible at this! He got up from his chair, turned off their light and closed the door behind him.
"ahhht?" Juliet asked incoherently as Artemis pulled her blanket way from her head.
"You need to eat Juliet." He said calmly and set a bowl of chicken noodle soup on her bed stand table. She smiled a sickly grin.
"ill it kill e?" Her voice was scratchy and horse, the pale clammy flesh on her cheeks clung to the bone. But her personality was unscathed.
"No it won't kill you. Though, it tastes a little bland."
Her blue eyes darted up to meet his. She knew 'a little bland' was a huge understatement.
"'ank ou 'rty"
"You're welcome Juliet. Now you rest up. I'll make sure that someone comes and takes a look at you by tomorrow evening at the latest." He promised and got up to leave. "Text me if you need anything."
Juliet attempted a laugh.
"O ow wee 'rty!" She said in her disjointedly voice.
Artemis just smiled back at her and closed her door then picked his phone out of his pocket. He pressed 4 on speed dial and waited a few moments as it rang.
"Hi, yes. I'm so glad you picked up. Do you think you can be up here in the next 24 hours? Juliet seems to have a really bad case of pharyngitis." He listen intensely on the phone for a few minutes than smiled. "The sooner the better for us. May I ask one more favor of you?"
