“Yeah, I think I lost them. Or rather, they were too cowardly to shoot” Artemis muttered on the phone.
“Good. We can’t afford to lose someone like you, Hunter. Now about those files…”
“Yes, I obtained them. Or at least the first part. I assume the rest of them are located in other various points in the school. It will take a while to uncover their locations, but I do know a few ‘fellow’ students who are open to bribery” Artemis replied.
“Good work, Hunter”, said voice on the other side of the phone. “Keep this up and the boss will offer you a promotion”
“Excellent. I look forward to it” Artemis hung up and sighed. It wasn’t going to be as easy as he told his superiors. He wasn’t the social butterfly (god forbid) and people often avoided him. Attaining connections would prove almost impossible. No one would trust him…and in a position like his, failure meant death…who could he possibly choose to trust?
==========================================
“You know, you can be so arrogant at times” Holly grumbled. Artemis had just managed to ridicule five parents, infuriate three teachers, and send eleven girls crying to the bathroom all in one sentence.
Artemis smirked, and for a moment Holly wondered just how she was able to stand his company. All of her friends had commented how she had a gift for it. That she could tolerate-no-enjoy his company. Holly had soon learned that there was more to this smart-mouthed, snobby millionare boy than met the eye. He could be charming when he wanted to, yet he retained his chilling aura.
But even with all these etheral gifts, people tended to avoid him. They sensed that something was not normal with the boy, but not Holly. Never Holly. She was never quick to judge, but had a fiery temper when she was agitated.

What happened to the Elfin captian?

AU stands for Alternate Universe. Simply put, this is in another world where faries don’t exist. I did it because I hated how fairy technology always saves the day so easily. So Arty and Holly are both in high school.

I liked this. Holly being the karate team captain and such… I also wonder what will happen next. Please go on! You write very good.

I like it a lot.
It’s cute, and well written.
Holly is kind of OOC.
I don’t think that she would be that mean.
Unless there’s a reason for it.
The writing is great and Artemis is a suave as ever.
Great job.

I like your story but it is kind of confusing. Who is Artemis working for? By the way could you please comment on my storys Twilight,and Maximum Ride.

BlackOpal- Yes, I realize that, but I couldn’t help trying to make an impression.
AF rules-Well, you’re not supposed to know and the second chapter is unfinished so you shouldn’t have read it. And I’ve already read your Twilight story and found the characters incredibly OOC.

I agree that your characters are somewhat OOc but not in a huge way. It’s really ggod and I’m very interested in how the plot will thicken and see how the story will end.

WOAH! If this was really AU then it would be perfectly on character! Not to Colfer’s characters but perfectly in character to this story.
