Artemis sat alone in his study typing away on his laptop; he was writing a paper on child geniuses and was just finishing. An orange pop-up flashed at him from his task bar and he paused his tying and clicked to open it. Foaly was staring at him waving and mouthing something but he had his laptop on mute; so he could work to his fully potential without distractions.
"Hello Foaly" Artemis said giving him a short wave
"Hiyya Artemis! Have you heard?" he said staring at a different screen on his left
"No what is it?" Artemis said curiously
"Sprio" he said still distracted
"What about him?" Artemis said with a grimace
"He out and back to his old tricks, I have been following for a couple of weeks now but he is still crazy" Foaly sighed returning his gaze to Artemis
"Well is he after me?" Artemis asked lazily he knew the answer to
"We aren't sure" Foaly said quietly
"Oh don't tell me the great Foaly doesn't know what going on?" Artemis joked and Foaly dint not smile
"Alright I am on but unlike you I am very busy" He said as he went to disconnect the chat and he was gone and all Artemis saw was a black screen. He gazed at it till he got a minor headache and decided to leave his computer for a while and he downstairs to see what he could eat or possibly go out into the town to that nice suit store, for that evening his father was hosting.
Downstairs he found Butler in the gym practising some kick-boxing on a worn out punching bag.
"Hello old friend" Artemis said standing at the door
"Do you need something Artemis?" Butler said punching the bag very hard
"Yes, I want to get a new suit for this dinner party tomorrow, is that okay?" he asked flinching a bit at the force Butler hit the bag
"Now? Or can it wait?" He asked stopping and drink from the bottle by the wall
"Now preferable" Artemis said grinning "So I would go get ready and see you in ten"
Later…
"Welcome Master Fowl, what can we do for you today?" a lady said at the door of the fashionable designers
"An evening suit would be good" he said nicely and he entered the tailor's room. A very pretty girl stood by the door and seemed to be assisting the tailors. Her long black hair was shinning and straight; she wore discrete make-up and smiled at him. He tried to not stare at her but she was intoxicating him and he was thinking of things to say to her. The tailor said he was done and he would be back with a few suits that were in Artemis's size. The pretty girl stood by wall looking at him and he smiled and she stepped towards him.
"Want anything?" she asked in and an English accent. A sexy accent…
"No it's fine" Artemis said looking at her and she walked behind him and touched his neck gently and he felt a jolt run down his spine
"You had a hair, sorry" she said and she went back to her position on the wall. He felt oddly happy all of a sudden ad his knees began to ache and his head became engulfed in a weird sensation and his eyes gave in and then it went black.
Keira open the back door to the tailor room which led into empty storage room which was filled with 3 butch men.
"Write you put him in the van" She ordered and they nodded and dragged Artemis in a black van which was park on a backstreet behind the shop. Keira grabbed her bag and took out funny looking device which made the security cameras relay a pre-recorded film which she record the day before. She exited the shop and jumped into the back of the van; where the unconscious Artemis laid and the three men were in the front and they drove off to the private plane that was heading straight for Chicago
