Loading ...Disclaimer: Artemis Fowl does not belong to me.
This story is AU (Alternate Universe)
This is a little bit different. Artemis is now 26 and has not gotten his memories returned, so Opal did not escape yet. Artemis is a weapons manufacture, and has been abducted by a band of Jewish that follow Satan. Once again Artemis and Holly must save the world and Opal is one on the villains but plays a minor part. Holly has a son and Trouble is now Commander, Grub is captain etc.
Her eye opened a crack, and what she saw was terrifying. Below her was the boiling hot terrain, of a lava field. Magma bubbled up from deep below the Earth, melting animals and cities in its wake. Her voice chocked out a soundless scream, as she tried to stabilize herself and struggled to stay away from the fires, but the swirling vortex of flaming sand plucked her out of the air and she joined the whirlwind of death.
The Earth reeled, a dab of blue paint spread across the sky with a few splashes of white; the trees grew into large spiky bushes; the ground shook as the moisture torn from the ground and rose into the sky. Below her feet, Holly could feel her legs heating up and the skin on her back blistering, and her magic snapped and crawled along her arm and onto her shoulders. It sunk into the skin, and made it boil then it looked as if nothing had happened.
“Artemis? Help me…!” She cried. The name felt weird on her tongue. “Please! Come back!” He stared at her with venom, and spat.
“Don’t ask me! Go ask your boyfriend… Trouble!” He shot back. He turned, with his back facing her. “You have betrayed me. Goodbye.”
As he walked the Earth beneath him cracked and thundered, and as he left, the rain falling from the blue sky. The rain, Holly noticed, was darker then usual. A drop hit her and she saw the blood, she slapped her face in search of the mosquito but did not find any. The dark liquid trickled down her face and into her cupped hands, and she found out but was not sure she wanted to know. It was blood.
“What…? Have you done Artemis?” Holly screamed in despair. “What, did you do?” The sand kicked up a small sand storm but she could still see the wink of a gunshot but felt the shake of a powerful explosive. Holly’s eyes widened, it was an RPG, just much more powerful.
A brown/black missile streaked across the sky and left a white jet stream behind. Smaller missiles burst from the shell and spiralled into formation making a black hexagon radiating across the blue sky. They pulverized a desert mountain at Mach 5, and hundreds of habitats were annihilated. The world froze for an eerie moment and then, all hell broke loose. Crows screeched and puma’s growled, birds screamed, the hearts of rats froze from the radiation and eagles shied away from the heat. A wave of green flew into the air and the mountain side was a bleak black and brown surface. Next a shockwave pushed a ton of derbies into the air, Holly shielded herself with her arms and splinters buried themselves into her back. The force of the blow threw her thirty feet into the air and sent her into a rent in the Earth. Above her there was a massive hammer shaped battle ship; she recognized it as a gravity shell.
“Why…?” Lemony asked tentatively. “Mom, are you all right?” The two Shorts were sitting on the couch in an apartment high above Haven. Holly immediately got up and looked around for something.
“Where is he, honey?” She asked, almost un-happily. Sweat was smeared across her brow and her delicate face was red. She was still in a confused state.
“Why… Mother? Who?” Holly’s son asked.
Holly blinked. “Artemis, did he go out again? I told him not to!” Lemony’s eyes shone with fear, Has she gone mad? Artemis? Why is she looking for Artemis? For an instant he knew, an idea flashed in his head. Had she fallen in love with him, and the feelings and memories are affecting her now? She had been mind-wiped of all memories of Artemis, but yesterday the news had brought her memories back.
“Mother, we need to get you to Foaly.” He commanded. Suddenly she looked at him dangerously and screamed hoarsely.
“Where is Artemis?” She demanded while backing him into the corner. “I said where is Artemis!” The small fairy jumped, Holly had never been so demanding before. He casually slipped his hand into his pocket. “I, I’m right here.” He said. Carefully he guided his hand towards Holly’s pocket, where her communicator was poking out. Lightning fast he grabbed and punched in speed-dial, then he dove between Holly’s legs and ran for the door.
She didn’t seem to notice, the image of Artemis stayed. “Who are you? Arty doesn’t stutter.” The ghost image straightened, “Always a first, my dear.” Lemony was at the door when it burst open on its hinges, and he was faced with a plasma rifle. The tall LEP policeman lifted his weapon as if to hit him, but he hesitated.
He concentrated on Lemony’s face for a moment. “Back off guys, this kid’s safe.” He let out his breath, which he wasn’t aware he was holding. He caught the name tag, when it glinted in the fake sunlight; it said Commander Trouble Kelp.
The boy caught his powerful gaze. “Your back, Trouble.”
“Yea, I guess so. It’s nice to see you again.” He grunted while he tied Holly up. “Don’t do what I do; it’s not fun to tie beautiful women up like your mother. Well anyways it’s nice to be back.”
Trouble stopped. “And remind her I’m back, will ya?” He slapped Lemony on the back playfully. “Good boy!” He sat on one knee and then stood up, holding Holly in his arms. Lemony caught a sad glint in Trouble’s eyes, so he touched his shoulder. The commander stopped and looked at him worriedly. “What’s wrong Lemony?”
A small dark hand reached out and popped a blue-green bubble, a wave of emotions rolled towards the girl. Holly dodged yet the roiling wave struck her in-directly, she felt white pain pierce her head and she thrashed her limbs around. Emotions rolled around in her head, she felt pain, anger and also a sense of happiness.
Artemis.
Then an image flew forward and slapped against her face, she concentrated on it and felt a sense of loss and even a feeling of death. Suicide.
Artemis.
Un-holy images filled her mind, of destruction and murder. Of a holocaust, then did she realize it was the future? Then an image of her kissing Artemis.
Artemis.
She awoke a bright light filled the space above her and beside her in the small space of light her eye let in there was a furry belly. On her other side a handsome tanned man with black hair stood against the wall.
Foaly’s voice was strained. “I think she needs Artemis Fowl! These images, if I read this properly, mean that her memories from after the memory wipe are coming back. And the dreams involving Artemis are a way for the mind to replace the created memories. For a mind like Holly’s it should create quite a shock, but for a strong mind like Artemis it should be nothing. I think that we should bring Artemis down here for a while.”
“WE? Are you ordering me civilian? We cannot do that, it would be insane. Fowl is our enemy, I’m sure Holly will recover without him.” Trouble spat the word Fowl as if it was venom. Foaly could pick out the tone of jealousy.
“Jealous are we? This was never happened, only once at Koboi Industries. I never got details; she’s a slippery one she is.” Foaly answered.
The world around Holly dripped like paint on a canvas, until everything was blurred out and it all turned black. Holly heard a faint beep and she was out.

October 18th, 2008 at 4:59 pm
HUH? This is your first comment. You know this is AU.
October 19th, 2008 at 5:26 am
AU? what does the maddness mean!?
October 19th, 2008 at 9:21 pm
Alternate Universe. It means that this story exists in a different universe then the normal AF, because it doesn’t follow the series.
October 20th, 2008 at 4:12 am
of course!
October 22nd, 2008 at 3:37 am
still hard to read. its not the amount of deatails as it is how fast you relay them into our brains. for example, the alein was just random. it controlls ice and speeks through psy. power. but then it killed itself as well as Artemis in a suicide attempt? (i know they have to live but it went way to fast and im still contemplating the details) if you slow things down a tad, it will be a lot easier to read. GOOD LUCK!!!
October 22nd, 2008 at 3:42 am
NONONO! This part is supposed to be like that. It’s after this where the missing part of the information starts to come in.
October 23rd, 2008 at 1:16 am
I hate to say it, but this mostly just seems like a rip-off of the movie Iron Man, with some religious ignorance thrown in. There’s no such thing as a Jew who worships Satan (then they wouldn’t be Jewish, would they?). Likewise, Christians are monotheistic, and wouldn’t have any idols. Be careful- if this gets offensive, we’ll have to take it down.
Constructive Criticism: Chapter four really is too confusing. It’s not entirely because of the missing information, it’s mostly because it seems to be jumping from scene to scene without even a line or something to denote the change. The whole story is pretty confusing, actually. Things are happening suddenly, with barely any setup.
October 23rd, 2008 at 1:53 am
Errr I’m a Christian and I idolize Steven Spielberg. (Sorry for the off topicness)
October 23rd, 2008 at 1:59 am
Doesn’t matter, its an AU story. Alternate Universe. It’s not even this one. I’m not saying any Jewish people follow Satan! It’s just a story, the few people will be evil and serve Satan. They are dead, not alive.
I will try to fix the event thing up. Can some body help me?
The idol, I meant not like something they worship. You know like that crying Mary thing that some churches have.
October 23rd, 2008 at 2:14 am
Ah, an idol like a statue?
October 23rd, 2008 at 3:26 am
Yes, like that. And I will be updating again soon. I added dividing sections to show the parts, and more finished endings to scenes.
And, I did sort of take a few things from Iron Man. But that will be changed the only things alike are the bombs. They won’t be the same, but the first one mentioned is almost the same. I added Minerva in to express Artemis’ new softer side. Not to copy Iron Man.
Also I have changed the suit, to a rough sketch of the tunnels throughout the Earth, and maybe even an image of Holly that Artemis drew.
October 24th, 2008 at 4:04 am
ok ok… i dont want to be hard on you, but minerva almost follows the exact screen play as iron man… The whole i forgot it was your birthday and go buy your self somthing nice was almost a quoted take out of the movie. Also, the whole storyline seems to be an exact doublecet of iron man… a suggestion is that you add a plot twist that is almost the opposite of iron man to brake away from that pattern. also, as i said it was too fast so it was confusing. i think MMK said it prety perfectly: “…it’s mostly because it seems to be jumping from scene to scene without even a line or something to denote the change.” I do this to addmitadly, but i shhow that it is changing. for mine, i used a brake semi title like thing, but for yours, i suggest that you double parragraph. i am starting to do this to and it is working beutifully. not sure what to say about the idol… i didn’t get that part… in fact i dont recall reading it. lol good job so far and keep up the good work. like i said, i dont want to sound mean, only show you whats wrong so it leaves only the good. in fact, i wish more people did that to all stories. GL!

“…Artemis is a weapons manufacture, and has been abducted by a band of Jewish that follow Satan.”
Since you said they don’t follow Satan, I’d revise that part so other readers don’t get confused. (I believe the term is “satanic”). Just be careful not to let this break the rules.
October 24th, 2008 at 5:34 am
What ever double paragraph means…. I changed it, like I meantioned in my update. I added dotted lines to seperate the scenes and I added things as cliff hangers. I made the description of everything important different. I changed the end of the last chapter. And he is a weapons manufacture, so what? It’s his character + a criminal empire.
October 24th, 2008 at 1:01 pm
kool, cant wait to read it again, ill let you know what i think. And as for the double paragraphing, i means you hit enter twice, not once. dotted lines work, however, i would go with double paragraphing. real authors use it. anyhoo, gl!
October 24th, 2008 at 7:07 pm
And Colfer uses those asterisks too.
October 24th, 2008 at 7:44 pm
I wasn’t saying that he shouldn’t be a weapons manufacturer– you said earlier in your comments that you said that Jewish people don’t follow Satan, but you hadn’t changed it yet in your summary. Just letting you know. (the correct term is “satanic” I believe)
October 25th, 2008 at 1:03 am
it is satanic, but there is no jew involved… read over it again and it doesnt even mention her religion lol. she walks in and threatened a preist for an idol! how do yall get jew and satanic out of that? and it isnt a christian idol most likly… more likly a fairy artefact the preist has. good update… i could read this chapter smoothly! GOOD JOB!!! update soon… im out for now.GL!
October 25th, 2008 at 2:04 am
YAHYAH! After 10-15 bad comments I have a good one! I might take that out. The Jewish part. From the start.
October 26th, 2008 at 5:42 am
Its not negative comments man, simply us pointing out errors. this is a good thing for now you can fix them and leave us only encouragement for comments! good job and im glad i can read it fluently! GL!
October 26th, 2008 at 6:49 am
What does GL mean? And thanks for the comments!
October 26th, 2008 at 6:58 am
I think it means ‘good luck’ not sure but it makes sense.
October 28th, 2008 at 4:35 am
