Romeo and Juliet
Artemis, Holly and Eve walked down the corridor, heading in the general direction of the cafeteria.
Holly, on the other hand, had no idea where she was going, and she walked next to Artemis, looking around with big, round hazel eyes. She would sneak glances out the windows, admiring the gardens, and she enjoyed the warm sunlight that filtered through the glass, warming their skins as they passed by.
The Elvin captain tried to ignore the fact that her mind was floating around on neutral topics, trying to deal with the trauma she'd been through that day. She completely blocked her mind off to thoughts of her grinning attacker, and was now wondering around in happy ignorance.
Artemis noticed this, and felt wonder well up inside him. He was shocked by how well she was handling it all, and her psychological barriers simply astounded him!
Truly a work off art! Even Dr. Po would have a run for his money!
Ever since their breakthrough all those years ago, Artemis had developed some grudging respect for the man. The fact that he'd survived their sessions impressed Artemis greatly. Dr. Po was truly a man of iron.
Artemis suddenly noticed that Holly and Eve were chatting away, smiling and laughing as they walked. It was obvious that they had begun to grow found of each other, and the two of them were literally glowing with excitement.
Thank you, Holly. Artemis thought, as he saw how happy Eve looked.
Eve, one the one hand, was pleasantly surprised. Holly was one of the first girls she'd managed to have a decent conversation with, and the fact that Holly hadn't run of screaming was quite impressive. Eve smiled, and Holly smiled back, flashing her small white teeth.
Suddenly, an idea flashed through the brunettes head, and her smile doubled in size.
"Hey Pixie, you know Anime?" she asked curiously.
Holly's' smile shrank by a few molars, as confusion spread across her face.
"Noooo…" she said slowly, dragging out the word.
Eves jaw dropped, and she stared at Holly in a mixture of pure horror and astonishment.
"So…you're telling me you've never watched an anime show? You know Japanese moving art, graphics, animax, comicon?"
Holly frowned, and shook her head slowly.
Eve let out a little growl, and began to dig around in her school bag furiously as they walked, muttering under her breath.
Artemis rolled his eyes to the heavens, "Oh gods, not again!"
Eve let out a triumphant shout, and dragged out a large file. The file looked like it would burst, and Holly tried to keep her eyes in her head.
Eve opened up the file, and began to shuffle through the pages, humming one of her favorite theme songs. Finally she reached the selected pages, and she shoved it under Holly's nose, grinning from ear to ear.
"See? This is an anime character! Pixie, I'd like you to meet Seras Victoria!" she sang, pointing at a picture in her file.
Holly took the file from her new found friend, and took a closer look at the picture.
The picture was of a blond, nineteen year old anime girl. Her eyes were blue, and she had short, spiky blond hair that came down to her shoulders. She was wearing a mustard yellow uniform, and her smile revealed two small fangs. Holly recognized the art form. She'd watched some of them in Haven, but she had never known what it was called.
"Seras Victoria? Who is she then?" Holly asked curiously, looking at all the other pictures. There was one with her eyes glowing red, and she was carrying what appeared to be a huge, hand held cannon gun.
"Seras Victoria is a vampire who works for the Hellsing Organization. She nearly died in a mission, but a vampire saved her life by turning her into a vampire. That vampire is called Alucard!" Eve said, her voice rising in excitement.
Artemis hung his head, heaving a heavy sigh. Eve was completely head over heels for that Alucard character, and he knew that Holly would soon be in for a wild ride.
Holly became extremely curious, and against all sense, she turned the page.
A picture of a tall, lankly man in old Victorian fashion stood before her on the page, his sadistic grin huge. He was wearing a long red coat and suit, complete with a red fedora hat, and he was wearing a pair of orange mirrored sunglasses. He was devilishly handsome, and his black hair came down to his shoulders, framing his pale face. Another picture showed him in a fighting pose, a long, dangerous looking semi automatic pistol in each hand. His sadistic smile remained plastered to his face, half ruining his handsome features. His red eyes glowed with an insanity and joy, and Holly felt as if one look from him would send anyone's sanity jumping over the fence, and your mind would run off laughing into the night.
But there was something about the grin that seemed all too hauntingly familiar.
Holly looked at the pictures of him for a long while, considering him. He was definitely not the man who attacked her, but there was something about the anime character that was definitely similar.
"May I ask, who is Alucard?" she asked, not looking up from the picture.
Eve clapped her hands in delight, glad for the chance to talk to her about him.
"Alucard is basically Dracula! Instead of Van Hellsing killing him, he captured him and forced him into servitude, and now he belongs to the Hellsing Organization. He is the Organizations trump card, and he is the Elite in the slaying of vampires."
Holly did a comic double take, her eyebrows raised.
"I thought he was a vampire! How can he kill his own kind?"
"He has to! The vampires are fake vampires, but don't ask why, because it's a long story and I'm not going to ruin the plot for you. He and Seras are sent out on missions to destroy vampires and ghouls, effectively keeping Britain safe from danger. By the way, ghouls are zombies, but vampires can control them. If you are no longer a virgin and a vampire bites you, you become a ghoul."
Holly took one last look at the handsome vampire, and then gave the file back.
Eve took at it back and closed it, glad to have introduced her new friend into the wonderful world of vampires. She was feeling quite proud of herself, and turned to grin at Artemis.
Said teenager rolled his eyes, and was repaid with a view of her pink tongue, as she stuck it out at him in a very childish and irritable manner.
"And there was I thinking you're mature."
Eve shrugged, turning back to the corridor.
"I am mature, but I'm just in a particularly hyper mood right now. Sew me if you wish for trying to have fun!" she said, waving a hand at him.
Holly couldn't help but laugh, and she held her sides, laughing a rich, tingling laugh that bubbled out her mouth in happy waves.
Things really did seem to be lightening up!
Suddenly, a pair of strong arms wrapped around her, and she felt herself being pulled into a strong embrace.
Holly bristled, and curled her hand into a fist. Desperate to defend herself, she brought her fist round and up, aiming for her attackers head.
But her fist missed, as her so-called attacker leaned back, skillfully dodging the hit.
Suddenly an all too familiar voice rang out.
"Hey shorty, don't be so harsh! I rather like my face, and I'd really like to keep my head on my shoulders!"
Holly whirled round in the arms, and looked up, searching for a familiar face.
She let out a sigh of relief, as a happy, friendly face grinned down at her.
"Luke!" she laughed, looking up into the blonds face.
"Shorty!" he mimicked, his grin growing to astronomical proportions.
Artemis, who was watching from the side, tried to keep his face from revealing his inner turmoil. He was shocked at the sight of this complete stranger hugging his best friend, and he felt an irritating spurt of jealousy and possessiveness well up inside him, breaking through the calm, clear façade.
Artemis pushed up next to them, and gave Luke his most serious and cold smile ever.
"Holly, I never knew you had other friends here! How long have you two known each other?" he asked, giving Luke a once over.
Luke immediately felt the irritation and possessiveness flowing from the pale youth, the emotions rolling off of him like waves. He stepped away from Holly, his hands falling to his sides.
"Not long. We met this morning. He showed me to my room. I would have been completely lost without him," replied the elf, though she was feeling seriously confused.
Then in hit her. The great Artemis Fowl was jealous! Did he seriously feel threatened by her new, friendly acquaintance?
Oh Arty…She thought sadly, wishing she could say how she felt.
Luke was looking at Artemis with a curious eye, his head slightly tilted to one side.
Suddenly he snapped his fingers, a wide grin crossing his features.
"Aaaah! Now I see why I don't have a chance with you! I guess I was more right than I thought!" he laughed, turning to the now blushing elf.
"N-no! It's not like that!" she argued, hoping that Artemis wasn't listening.\
But Luke simply wagged his finger at her, his eyes sparkling.
"Don't give me that rubbish! I can see what's going on here!"
Holly tried to argue, but Luke suddenly let out a startled yelp, and he dashed forwards, coming over to stand next to Eve.
Eve in turn gave him an odd look, frowning at him.
"And you are…?" she questioned, cocking a slim eyebrow at him.
Luke gave her his dashing grin, "I'd ask you the same question! I've never seen you around here. I know him, but not you," he said, jabbing a thumb at Artemis.
Eve gave the grinning teenager another once over before answering.
"I'm Eve Watson. I'm surprised I haven't notice you, since I've been here for three years now."
Luke turned a bright shade of pink, as he realized how short sighted he'd been. He felt like kicking himself!
"Oh dear…I'm terribly sorry! My name is Luke Papadopoulos!"
Eve gave him a small smile, and then returned to her file, her fingers gliding over the page.
Suddenly Luke touched the page she was on, and he took in a sharp intake of breath.
He looked at Eve as if Christmas had come early, and his mouth hung open in shock.
"You watch Hellsing?" he asked, his voice hanging in awe.
Eve did a comic double take, her own eyes growing wide.
"Yes…do you?"
Luke didn't even answer. Instead he flung his arms into the air in mock praise, looking as if his legs were about to give way.
"My prayers have been answered!" he cheered, his voice rising.
Eve gave him a quire look, but decided that she was going to have a little chat with him. Who knew, maybe she'd get lucky.
Holly frowned at the two chatting teenagers, and she turned to Artemis, who was walking next to her, also watching this whole fiasco.
"Do you get any of that?"
Artemis frowned to, shaking his head.
"No. Eve has tried to get me to watch some of it with her, but I always declined. Believe it or not, I'm not the vampire type."
"Could have fooled me…" Holly joked, rolling her eyes.
Artemis laughed good heartily, "Very funny. I watched the first DVD, but I decided not to continue. It was OK, but I'll rather leave that kind of stuff to the experts."
"Which by some miracle…is not you?"
"No, sorry."
She nodded in understanding, but suddenly stopped as they entered a huge hall.
The room was filled with tables, and students were all sitting around, eating and chatting to their friends. At the far corner was large kitchen area, and students stood in line with plates or bowls, waiting impatiently to be served. There was even one who was arguing that someone had stolen his place, and he looked just about ready to lunge at the boy who stubbornly kept his ground.
But Holly wasn't interested in the two humans. She was more interested by the salad table, which had a long line of girls filing up to dish up their favorite bunny food.
Holly smiled, and silently blessed Foaly. She took a step into the room, not noticing Artemis' mirth-filled smile.
Eve also stepped into the hall, and she handed Luke her beloved file. She ignored his loud protests, and she jogged to reach Holly, who was already half way to the salad table.
She grabbed Holly's arm and spun her around.
"Pixie, are you really going to eat that green rabbit food?" she asked, her voice holding the slightest tinge of a whine.
Holly nodded enthusiastically, and she turned around, trying to get to her chosen destination.
Eve heaved a sigh, and let go of the elf in defeat. After a second of remorse, she pulled herself up and charged toward the hot food stands, her mouth watering.
Artemis followed Holly, also being fond of salads. He would have loved some caviar, but whenever he asked for it the chiefs would glare at him. He'd lodged a complaint, but the school had apologized for the lack of funds. In the end he'd just have to settle for fancy salads.
The two friends stood in line, waiting to reach the table. Holly laughed as she watched Luke curse in the background, still holding Eves' file. He also wanted to dish up, but he couldn't just leave her file.
Finally, Luke found a large enough table for the group, and he put the file down on Eves' seat. He took off his blazer and placed it over the file, hiding it from thieving eyes. With a self-satisfied grin, he ran to the line, taking his place behind Eve.
Holly smiled at the two of them. It was nice to see Luke interacting with someone else. She liked Luke a lot, and he was the first person to take her in at the school, but she liked to have her own personal space.
Later the two of them came back to their chosen table, their plates filled with clean, fresh salad. Holly took her place on the bench, and Artemis sat down next to her, flashing a happy smile at her.
Holly smiled back, but her eyes almost popped out of their sockets when she saw Eve and her plate
Eve waltzed up to the table, her plate held in both hands. The plate was filled high with lasagna. She was smiling from ear to ear, her eyes sparkling with happiness and pride.
The brunette dropped into the seat opposite Holly, and she laughed at the look of shock and horror on Holly's face.
"Pixie, you look like you've never seen lasagna before! What's with the shocked expression?"
Holly took a minute to reply, "Don't get me wrong, I've seen lasagna before…but never so…much."
Eve laughed good heartily, her eyes closed as she laughed.
"That's what they all say! But don't worry; they only serve lasagna on Mondays."
"I'm surprised you look the way you do!" marveled the elf, staring at the pile of Italian food.
"I guess so! They say that I'm born under the moon, so no matter how much I eat, I barely gain a pound! But that's just a tall tale. Must be fast metabolism or something like that."
Artemis butted in, joining in the conversation, "You do happen to be quite fit, Eve. And yes, you do have a fast metabolism."
"Lucky you," murmured Holly, poking at her tiny bowl of salad. Being a police officer, she had to remain fit and healthy, and her diet consisted mostly of nutrition bars, fruit shakes and salads. She often wished that she could have the luxury of a fast metabolism, and she dreamt of being able to eat what she liked knowing that she'd exercise it off later. But being an elf meant that eating salads was the norm, and what was the point of eating a lot then? You'd just have an even bigger plate of salad.
Eve laughed, and without further a due, dived fork first into her lasagna.
Luke walked up to the table; carry an equally large plate of food. His plate was piled high with chips and a beef burger, and he seemed very pleased with his catch.
He took his seat next to Eve, and he glanced at her plate. Holly just managed to catch him looking up to the heavens in wonder before also diving into his meal.
Artemis and Holly both turned to look at one another, their eyebrows raised. Holly leaned into to whisper to him quietly, her lips close to his ear.
"Is it always like this?" she breathed, her warm breath tickling his cheek.
Artemis tried to keep his heart beat under control and his breathing steady as she leaned so close to him. The close proximity between the two of them was making him strangely nervous and…excited (?).
He gulped slightly, trying to swallow despite his dry throat.
"Generally, yes," he croaked, and mentally kicked himself for it. How much more obvious could he get.
I seriously need to get help…
Holly laughed softly, still not pulling away, "Oh may the saints have mercy upon use!"
Artemis couldn't help but laugh at this. His chuckles alerted Luke and Eve, and the two of them stared at the companions, their mouths filled with food.
Holly froze, caught in the act. She hurriedly pulled away, averting her eyes. The elf suddenly became very interested in the table, and she began scratching the surface with her nails.
Artemis tried not to blush as he looked back at his plate. He plucked a large blade of lettuce from his plate, placing it into his mouth. He chewed at it, trying to avoid looking at anyone in particular.
Eve and Luke threw each other knowing glanced, and they both nodded in agreement before diving back into their food.
They both knew that the relationship between Artemis and Holly went far deeper than they tried to let on.
After lunch the day passed on uneventfully, much to Holly's pleasure. Her spirits began to rise, and she smiled often, laughing and smiling with her friends. But not everyone was all smiles and sunshine.
Artemis was still very worried. Throughout the day he'd glance behind their shoulders, his eyes searching for dangers which he knew he couldn't see, but was adamant that they were there.
In a way he was right to be worried. Sets of red eyes would follow them wherever they went, watching their progress with malicious curiosity. Every time Artemis turned around, the red eyes at the back of the corridor would meet with his blue ones, and Artemis would always turn around feeling more uneasy.
He worried dearly for his friends' safety, and he wished with all his heart he could make it stop. He could only imagine how Holly must have felt, and still must be feeling. He didn't want her to get attacked again because of him, and he'd do whatever he could to protect her.
Oh how things have changed. Looks like the tables are beginning to turn.
The three friends walked out of the hall after supper, smiling and laughing. They were immediately greeted by a grinning Luke (he had been playing soccer), who positioned himself between Artemis and Eve. The two smiled at each other, then launched into another Hellsing debate. The two seemed to be catching up, and eventually started talking about music and other interesting subjects.
But, they did not agree on everything.
The two of them debated endlessly, neither one backing down. When one did happen to lose the argument, the loser would bow their heads in defeat, and would mutter curses under their breaths. Neither one enjoyed losing nor being pulled out of their fantasies and dreams.
As these debates occurred, Holly would always fall face first into a pool of confusion. She had no idea what they were talking about, and their words just seemed like babble and gibberish to the Elvin Captain.
Thankfully for her, she wasn't the only one drowning in the babble. Artemis was just as confused as she was, and the two friends would always launch into their own conversations in an attempt not to look out of place.
Suddenly, Eve gave a loud cough, trying to gain every ones attention.
"Well I think it's about time we all go get our arses cleaned. As you men can see, you will not be able to join us. Thankfully, we have separate shower rooms."
"Damn!" Luke muttered, cursing his luck as he looked the brunette up and down.
Eve rolled her eyes at the comment, but ignored him. She waved the two boys goodbye, then turned around to walk away. But she would not escape that easily, and Luke hugged her from behind, whispering something into her ear before pulling away.
The pale American blushed scarlet, and she glared at the laughing Greek before storming off, her hair swishing too and fro as she went.
Holly quickly bade Artemis goodbye, giving the pale youth a warm hug. He hugged her back, as he too murmured into her ear.
"If anything happens, or you don't fell comfortable, feel free to call me. I'll come over and help you, no matter what the time."
The elf nodded, biting her lip as she pulled away. She smiled at Luke, then whirled around and ran after Eve, who was impatiently tapping her foot by the entrance to the girls' dormitory building. The two girls went to their separate rooms, which where both on opposite sides of the building. They each got their things, and they soon met up outside the shower rooms.
Holly stepped inside, and she took a look around, taking in her surroundings.
The shower room was clean and white, with shiny cream tiles and white walls. The one wall was composed of shower stalls, each one with a cream curtain and walls. The shower room was completely empty, since they had arrived late after an hour or two of strolling around chatting and exploring.
Eve placed her stuff on the long bench at the end of the room, humming happily to herself. Holly followed, placing her stuff just a bit away from the other girls.
The two hung their towels up on hook outside their private stalls, and the two got undressed swiftly, eager to get cleaned. Holly felt slightly uneasy about getting undressed in front of the other girl, but she eventually slapped herself. She pulled off her uniform and turned on the shower tap, putting the hot water on full. Eve did the same, and they both stepped into the showers, each one letting out a sigh of contentment as the warm water washed over them.
The two of them chatted while they showered, talking about blissfully neutral subjects. It went on like this for a few minutes, and then Eve shattered it completely.
"I see you like Artemis. I congratulate you on your choice in men, Pixie," she laughed happily as she splashed water over her head, washing away the shampoo.
Holly gasped, and some hot water seeped into her open mouth. She spat it out, and winced, knowing that her reaction gave her away.
"Why do you say that?" she asked nervously, reaching for the soap.
Eve laughed, the laughter bouncing off the walls.
"It's a little obvious, Pixie. Don't try to hide it! I can see right through your little innocent act."
Holly bit her lip, mentally cursing herself.
Eve waited, listening to the silence.
"You know, I think he likes you too…" she finally added, hoping to bring Holly back into the conversation.
Holly froze, the soap resting on her chest. She bit her lip even harder, almost biting through the skin.
"I know," she breathed, hoping it was loud enough for her to hear.
Eve just managed to pick it up over the roar of the showers, and she did a comic double take, her jaw dropped.
"You do!?"
Holly nodded, then after a full minute of silence, she realized that Eve wouldn't have been able to see the nod.
Gods, I am such an idiot!
"Yes. I've always know he liked me. It hasn't been for long, but ever since then, I've known."
Eve gasped in understanding, "Because you both fell in love at the same time."
"…yes."
Eve fell into thoughtful silence, the water pounding against her head.
"But despite that, you two are not a couple…why?" she asked finally, her voice meek.
"I…it's hard to explain. I just can't be with him. It would be two difficult."
"Abbreviate."
"…We belong to different families. The O'Connor's and the Fowl's are both Irish families. The Fowls live in Southern Ireland, while we live in the North. This makes are families very competitive, and we are not fond of one another. If we tried to be together, things would collapse on our heads," Holly replied, using her knowledge to get herself out of the grave she was digging for herself.
It wasn't all that far from the truth, and Holly knew it.
"Like Romeo and Juliet!" Eve cried, her heart melting for the two of them.
"Yes. But at least we can still be friends."
But Holly knew that her argument would never hold up in reality. Technology down underground had evolved dramatically, and things could still be changed.
They both had hope. They just had to realize it.
The two girls stopped the water, and they climbed out their stalls, reaching for the towels.
Holly wrapped her emerald green towel around herself, as Eve did the same, wrapping herself up in her crimson one.
But just above their heads, a large red eye watched them, eyeing them as the two girls got dressed into their night clothes. Eve pulled on a black silk nightdress with red lace, while Holly went for a less extravagant outfit. She wore a simple black top with emerald night shorts. The elf compared their outfits, and she silently wished she'd decided to rather wear her emerald and black silk nightdress. She'd brought it for special occasions, even though she had no idea when she'd get the occasion to wear it. How could going to bed be special?
Eve looked at Holly's' expression, and chuckled, smiling at her.
"Don't look so sour, Pixie! It's not that bad, now that you come to think about it! At least you don't look like you just walked out of a lingerie advert!"
"I feel like I've just walked out of a frat house," the elf muttered, twisting the hem of her black top, making it tighter than it already was.
Eve laughed, packing her bag. The two girls brushed their teeth, and as they did so, the grinning man dropped nimbly and silently down from the ceiling. He had simply moved right through the wall, and he was now crouching in Eves' shower stall, his eyes fixed on them.
When they had done, Holly packed her bags and left the room, telling Eve she'd wait outside. The brunette didn't argue, saying that it would probably be best if she moved on without her. But the elf refused, saying that she'd wait.
Eve did her nails, filing them. She'd nearly gotten her head bitten off today by the deputy principal for her nails being too long, and she wasn't going to risk getting in trouble for it again.
The man stepped out of the stall, advancing upon the unsuspecting girl. He licked his lips, moving like a cat stalking a grounded bird.
He reached Eve, and he bent over, bringing his pale face close to hers. The brunette looked up, and grey-blue eyes met blood red ones.
Eve stared at him, her face blank. The monster/man continued to grin, just inches away from her. He liked his lips again, and he seemed to lean in closer.
Eve's eyes widened and they turned an equal shade of crimson. Her lip trembled, and she seemed to struggle, fighting something.
But before the man could get closer, her eyes flashed back to their original color, and she stood abruptly to her feet, trembling violently. She grabbed her bag and ran out, small little gasps escaping her throat.
The man's smile seemed to shrink as he watched her go. He was shocked by her reaction, and he scowled angrily. He stood to his feet and disappeared, transporting himself to the boys shower room.
Artemis and Luke were in the showers, talking as they washed themselves. Artemis had gotten over his first cold behavior towards Luke, and the two of them were getting along relatively well.
"What do you think of Eve?" Artemis asked, curious to hear his answer.
Luke sighed on in his stall, the water pounding against his chest, just like his heart was doing at that moment.
"Rambo, I have never met anyone like her! I've finally found my soul mate!" he laughed in a joking tone.
Artemis growled slightly at the nickname, reminding Luke of his distaste for the name.
Luke picked up the growl, "Oh, sorry. Forgot about that…"
"It's alright. But seriously now. You two seem to be getting along quite well."
Luke sighed, resting his forehead against the wall.
"I…like her…a lot. It's hard to find nice girls out there, and I can't believe I never noticed her sooner."
Artemis bit his lip. He'd found the nicest girl in the world, and he wasn't allowed to have her. It was like being given the best birthday present a boy could ever dream of getting, and then having your father take it away and put it on a tall cupboard were you'll never be able to reach it. All you can do is look at it and wish with all your heart that you could just hold it. You sit at the bottom, begging for it, but you know that no matter how hard you cry, it will not be yours.
Artemis was never one to cry, and it seldom happened, but just thinking about it was enough to make his throat constrict painfully and his eyes to sting.
Luke waited in the silence, considering it. He wanted to ask about Holly, but something told him not to. He could tell that now was not the right time.
The two of them got out the shower and dressed, neither one talking. Both of them were deep in thought, and were both oblivious to the fact that a insane and wicked looking man was leaning against the wall just a meter away from them, it's arms crossed and it's head tilted to the side.
But the man was particularly interested in Artemis. He could sense the raw emotion rolling off of the boy. He felt Artemis' longing and sadness, and he knew who it was directed at. The man grinned, loving it completely.
Luke bade Artemis goodnight and trudged back to his room. Artemis took a bit longer to get moving. He got up and began to advance towards the door. The man pushed off the wall and followed Artemis closely, just a step away from him.
Suddenly Artemis stopped, and he whirled around, his eyes glaring at the man.
The man/monster stared into Artemis' eyes, his smile wide.
Artemis stared back, and he finally turned around, walking out the door.
As he walked, he pressed speed dial on his mobile phone, scowling all the way.
Butler picked up on the second ring.
"Yes Artemis? Something you need from me?"
Artemis looked back at the now empty bathroom, his eyes hard and determined.
"Yes old friend. Do you mind bringing me something…dangerous? A gun, preferably."
"…"
