Loading ...A/N: sorry I haven’t updated in a while. This summer has been making me lazy. Plus I had writer’s block. I was also trying to work on an actual plot for this story. But here it is now! Enjoy.
July 10th, 2033
Okay, now I am satisfied. Yesterday was our first real meal since…well…forever. Maybe these fairies aren’t as bad as they seem.
I tried to escape yesterday morning. I tried slipping out on the food cart again. Joseph came with, of course. Who could leave him behind? But the guards caught us right before we entered the kitchen place. This time both of us were taken straight to the head fairy lady. Amber, I think her name was. Amber Koboi.
This was the first time Joseph had ever seen her. From the look on his face I could tell he was pretty surprised. He was probably expecting some evil-looking, ugly, old fairy that spent her entire life (which was about a hundred and fifty years according to dad’s friend, Holly) tracking down humans.
Instead he saw her. All her poofy long hair that most girls would kill to have, her fashionable clothing that looks good on the models but makes normal people look like they’re trying to be pretty. But I have to say it looks pretty good on her.
I don’t know why they brought us there. I think that Koboi lady just wanted to gloat over our, what, thirtieth failed attempt to escape.
I got pretty mad, and I think I said something like, “You demented freak. What’s the point of keeping us here? Why don’t you go after all they other humans? My bodyguards are going to come and get me, you know. And you know what they’ll do to puny fairies like you? They’ll tear your limbs off, pry your eyes out of your face, one at a time so you have to watch with your only eye as they squash the other under their feet. They’ll skin you alive, literally, and roast your skinless body over an open fire on a spit and glaze you in barbecue sauce until your muscles and fat are shiny and polished and then feed you to the dogs.”
Though most of that speech, Joseph was staring at me as if I had just said the most disgusting thing…which I think I did.
“Me?” Koboi said, laughing at me. “I’m the demented freak? After what you threatened to do to me, I’m starting to think someone else is.”
“My dad knows who you are,” I think I said. “So does my mom. I know other people too. They know all about you and they’re not going to let you get away with this.”
You should have seen the expression on her face. She was smiling, but she had this…wicked air around her, an evil presence. Mwahahaha. I felt very…very…very small.
“Do you?” she said. And whispered something in another pixie’s ear. Then the pixie brought us here. To this room. And I’m not exaggerating when I say this room is better than my room. And I’m freaking rich! So that’s saying something. This time there’s two beds, both king-sized with really fluffy blankets and big pillows you see in staged for-sale houses. The carpet is really thick and feels nice. If the bed wasn’t so comfy I’d have been satisfied with just sleeping on the rug.
Joseph, that worry-wart, is still convinced the fairies are going to murder us in our sleep. Or at least torture us or something. True, it’s weird how they just up and put us in this really cool room, but it was really nice of them!
“This is a trap,” Joseph said yesterday. “They want us to trust them so you can tell her all you know. Don’t trust them, Artemis.”
I ignored him. Proudly too. I know several girls at school who are so completely devoted to their boyfriends that they will do just about anything he says. “Go rob a bank,” the boyfriend can say. And the next thing you know that girlfriend’s in jail. So now here’s Joseph, telling me not to trust the fairies, and here’s me, ignoring him. I pat myself on the back! Good job, Artemis Fowl!

September 23rd, 2007 at 5:00 pm
Oh, I really like this, I think you’ve got a really great idea for a character, I think. Constructive criticism: This would be a great first chapter to a story, but I don’t think it’s that great as a story in itself. I’m not sure how to describe it, but it doesn’t seem… self-contained.
September 23rd, 2007 at 5:14 pm
ok, thanks! so i should write a little more? sure, no problem. Thank you for telling me!:)
September 23rd, 2007 at 6:31 pm

I just read chapter three. It’s still very good.
I can’t wait for her to figure out her father’s right (that will happen, right? Nevermind, don’t tell me).
October 26th, 2007 at 3:07 am

October 27th, 2007 at 12:57 pm
This rocks!! does she find out about the fairies though? plz let her, it would make her feel better!!
;) xoxox
October 28th, 2007 at 6:09 pm
no offense but this story doesn’t really have a point.
More action would make it better!
October 30th, 2007 at 5:59 am
don’t worry! i’m just building up to it!
November 1st, 2007 at 2:30 am

November 23rd, 2007 at 7:45 pm
wow. i just read ch.8! i really like your ideas! write more soon!
November 25th, 2007 at 1:55 am
Wow, it’s pretty original! I’m not quite sure if I like who Artemis III is, but we’ll see. Generally, when people are like her, they don’t care that much about social status anymore. I think that whole rant gets kind of old. It is quite addictive, though. keep it up!!
November 25th, 2007 at 2:11 am
i loved that u continued! keep it up!!!
November 25th, 2007 at 2:26 am
you you lied !!! she didn’t come and I still need a quarter!!! great story glad to see it contuned but that God comment was offenceve everyone belives in something!!! please keep going only don’t lie!!! stupid toothfairy!!
November 25th, 2007 at 3:22 am
yes most definatly! I agree with Carino Artemis 3 is um a little bit no, A LOT rude and well kind of now this is just my point of view a little bit on the gangster side. she scares me! *goes to hide under kitchen table* If u could soften her up a wee bit that would be wounderful!
p.s. I can’t hold it in any longer! I WAS ON TV!!!!!
YAAAAAAAAAA!
November 25th, 2007 at 3:35 am

November 25th, 2007 at 4:41 am

November 25th, 2007 at 7:54 am
you were on tv? cool. please continue soon!
November 25th, 2007 at 4:14 pm
yeah.. in austrialia! idt we have that.. ah welll……… plz continue this story soon@
December 6th, 2007 at 6:49 am
I just read chapters 7 - 14. Very good still.
Though I’m starting to wish for more fairy-related plot. Not just the romance, though that’s nice too (just be careful not to overdo it)
December 6th, 2007 at 11:55 pm
nice , I totally like it! plz continue ,
December 7th, 2007 at 12:10 am
kool update!
December 8th, 2007 at 5:24 pm
MMK, you don’t have to be worried about me overdoing the romance. i’m not a romantic type of person. there’ll only be a little and there WILL be more fairy related stuff soon. thanks for reviewing!
December 8th, 2007 at 6:26 pm
Yes! More fairies! I really like it! continue!
December 20th, 2007 at 2:27 pm
I would like to see a continuation of the topic
December 31st, 2007 at 8:52 am
please continue! this is fabulose…(if thats how u spell the word)
January 27th, 2008 at 9:08 pm
r u going to upd8 this any more?
February 6th, 2008 at 4:36 am
Nice update, but I must say, I’m getting impatient to actually see fairies… assuming we get to. Artemis III’s school life is nice and everything, but it doesn’t interest me as much.
February 6th, 2008 at 5:15 am
u’ll see it! it’s coming up in the…next chapter or so? she learns a lot more about fairies. it doesn’t seem to have a point yet. i think i kind of got carried away with her normal life. oops.
February 6th, 2008 at 6:31 am
i like the school life parts. most good stories dont rush into it quickly so yea. luv the update!
February 10th, 2008 at 10:46 pm
Yeah, I’m not too impatient without the fairies. But please continue! I love the story!
February 15th, 2008 at 7:52 am
luv the update,….HAHAHAHA she got locked in a boot.
February 21st, 2008 at 5:21 am
omg.. wow.. well keep updating , I was kind of like “What the—–” when she got drunk and evrythig.. but w/e , upd8 soon lol!
February 21st, 2008 at 8:51 am
ohhh a coma,..great idea
March 6th, 2008 at 4:07 am
I like her getting drunk! Serve her right for thinking Opal is just a poor innocent fairy. ~shake fist~
March 9th, 2008 at 10:29 pm
LOL I like it!
March 9th, 2008 at 10:51 pm
Yay! Love it still! Get her out of there! Yay! Update soon!
March 11th, 2008 at 12:50 am

Dun dun dunnnnnnnn. Love it! Write more!
March 31st, 2008 at 8:12 am
lol if i was jo i would be like…o..m…g…..TURTLES!! just to make the moment random. luv the update plz continue.
March 31st, 2008 at 6:47 pm
hm…that’s an idea…
March 31st, 2008 at 10:57 pm
Good to see you’re updating again! I’m glad the plot moved (not to rush you, of course- it’s your story, do what YOU like). It’s very interesting, I like your plot.
Though I’m guessing Artemis was mesmerized in the cell? If not then he was very OOC, completely giving up right away like that. Holly was OOC, too. Your original characters are great, but you have to be careful to keep the old ones in character. That’s my major piece of constuctive criticism.
Great job, though!
April 1st, 2008 at 12:19 am
thanks! i’ll try to make them a bit more in character. as i keep saying, i LOVE constructive criticism.
April 1st, 2008 at 2:32 am
I like it! Yeah! cool character, but some constuctive critisism would be: you need to start a new paragraph everytime someone else starts speaking, like:
“Hi Joe,” Bob said.
“Hi Bob, we’re all going to get killed by aliens!” replied Joe.
You get the picture, but other then that it’s good.
May 16th, 2008 at 10:22 pm
That was AWSOME!!!!! UPDATE PLEASE!!!!!
