Scotland the Next day
Around 5.00 PM
“Looks like your computers were way out on this one Foaly,” said Holly as they stared down from their vantage point
“The scanners Artemis was using were made to scan for Magic not villages in the middle of No where,” Foaly retorted defensidly. They were looking down on a small village with a sign facing their direction which said it was called Hogsmeade.
“It dosn’t matter now,” said Artemis. “The source of the magic is coming from that castle there” He gestured to a castle which overlooked the whole valley.
“I agree,” said Foaly odviously glad that the subject was off his inventions not functioning properly.
“Foaly, did you bring a spare shield for Artemis,” Holly enquired.
“What do you take me for, A fool,” retorted Foaly. “OF cource I brought an extra shield for him. I even brought three backups. That’s why I am the cleverest thing in the universe and don’t try and tell me otherwise.” He finished this speach with a smug grin that clearly said that there was no point in arguing.
He handed Artemis what looked like a divers watch. “Ok, These special shields will allow us to see each other but no one else will. That way we won’t get seperated. He handed one to Holly and then strapped one onto his wrist. “To activate them just push this red Button here” He indecated a circular button just below the screen which odviously doubled as a comunicator.
The three of them strapped on some wings, Artemis and Foaly weren’t so sure about that. Holly got them to put on the wings eventually and with that they activated the shields and they were off. Holly was having a great time soaring above the world while Artemis and Foaly looked as though they might be sick.
In a matter of Minutes, (it would have taked Holly mearly seconds but she had to slow down for Artemis and Foaly) they were at the outer wall of the castle. They all decended and landed safely on the ground.
“Ok,” siad Holly. “I’ll fly up and have a look.” she flared up her wings and took off. SHe looked over the wall and said. “Hay Foaly, Artemis, you too might want to get a look at this!”
Artemis and Foaly joined Holly in the air and peered over the stone enclosure.
“D’arvit,” breathed Holly. The outer wall of the grounds stretched so far, farther then the eye could see. The ground area was so vast it fit a lake and a forest in it easity and still had plenty of room left. The light from the sun reflected off the lake making it look like it was a sea of sparkles.
“Let’s go and have a closer look,” said Artemis quietly as if he thought that the very air might be listening. Holly and Faoly nodded in umison and the three of them carefully came over the wall.
“Artemis, have you ever heard of this place,” asked Foaly staring around him agast. It was in the middle of nowhere and there were signs of life everywhere. There was a cabbin on the edge of the forest with clouds of smoke rising from the chimney. There were lights everywhere in the castle only vissible through the large windows. There was something very unusual happening. There were owls circling around the castle.
“That’s very strange,” murmured Artemis. “In all the books I’ve read I’ve never heard of owls flying in daylight. Have you Foaly?” He looked questionately at the centaur who was still in his human disguise, as wall of course Holly.
“No, I haven’t ever heard of something like this,” he replied slowly.
“Let’s go up to the windows and have a little look inside,” said Holly flying slightly ahead of the two males.
“I don’t think that that is such a good idea Holly, there could be something very dangerous inside” siad Foaly.
“Even if there is they can’t see us. You said so yourself,” she retorted, “Or are you douting your inventions.” She’d struck a cord.
“My inventions are 100% garinteed to work and don’t you ferget that Holly,” he retorted glaring at Hotly.
“Then we should have no problem should we,” said Holly a grin on her face and with that she zoomed off. The front door was slightly a jar when Holly reached it and then she waited for her comrades to catch up.
“You two can wait here for all I care but I’m going in,” she said and then silently slipped into the castle. Artemis and Foaly exchanged incredulous looks and followed her.
They stepped through into a large entrance hall. On either side of the door there were huge hourglasses Each had a different colour of jewel in it. One had red, another had blue, the third had gold and the last had green. The three of them stared around at their seroundings. The took in the flagstone floor, the great marble staircase, the tapastries and the different doors and passageways leading off the main room. There was the sound of many people talking at once coming from a huge double door to the right of the great oaken one that they had just used to enter the castle. Slowly the three of them moved slowly to the edge of the door and peered in.
They saw four long tables going up and down the room each seating at least one hundred humans. They were all wearing black robes and tucking into a huge assortment of meats, vegetables, breads, pastas and sweets which were set out elegantly on the tables. All the people at the four tables appeared to range from the age of ten or eleven to about seventeen or eighteen. IT was hard to tell. At the top of the hall there was another long table facing the four tables full of kids. all the people at this table were adults. Some looked very old. There was one man in the centre of the table that had a long flowing beard which reached past his waiste. Everyone was talking animatedly to people next to them and everyone looked like they were having a good time. Then Holly noticed what was lighting the hall and pointed to the ceeling. Foaly let out an ordable gasp. The ceeling seemed to open up to the sky and just below it there were thousands of candles suspended in mid air, not hung there but just floating.
“D’arvit,” whispered Foaly under his breathe, for once he had nothing to say, not even any sarcastic coments. The man with the long beard got to his feet and addressed everyone in the hall
“Now that we all are finished our meal I think it is time to exit the hall and return to your studies, that is if you have got O.W.L.s or N.E.W.T.s this year. For everyone else I supose you will have to find something else to ocupy your time when your not studying your absolute hardest. Now I bid you all farewell untill tomorrow.”
Everyone in the hall seemed to take this as their queue to get up and exit the hall. Holly, Artemis and Foaly backed away from the door just in time. A flood of teenagers poored out of the hall and into the entrance area. They divulged Half ent up the great marble staircase, others went to a flight of stairs that led deep underground apparently and the remaining quarter made their way through one of the passages that exited the hall. Once all of the people were gone it was safe to speak again.
“Oh gods… that was too close for comfert,” stated Foaly as he picked himself off the floor where he had landed while trying to get out of the way of the mass of people exiting the hall.
“Why didn’t you just activate your wings, it would have saved you from having to land on the floor,” comented Holly from above him. Artemis was floating beside her loking down at the centaur.
“Well I didn’t have time to think,” retorted Foaly. “They were all coming so fast and my instincts said Jump out of the way before you end up being sweapt up the stairs or something.”
“So.. you didn’t think of your inventions first. You acted on instinct. I should have had a video camera,” said Holly a smile tugged at the corners of her mouth.
“Just be quiet Holly,” replied the centaur irritably.
“Let’s have a closer look at that hall,” said Holly paying no attention to Foaly’s coment.
“I agree,” said Artemis. It was clear that he wanted to study what made the candles float in mid air without anything suspending them.
Holly and Artemis landed on the ground next to Foaly and the three of them crept closer aware that any noise they made would be amplified thanks to the almost bare stone walls and uncarpeted floor. They edged slowly around the door still not making a sound. They went slowly around the edge of the hall and about half way around they froze. They had just realised that they weren’t the only ones in the room. The tall bearded man who had sent the teenagers to bed was talking quietly to a women in a tall pointed hat. She had a hooked nose and glasses.
Suddenly the tall man looked in the direction of where Artemis, Holly and Foaly were and stopped talking.
“Is something wrong Albus?” the women asked.
Without speaking the man took out a long straight stick of wood and pointed it at the three invisible intuders. He made a complicated gesture and for some reason the shields protecting the three of them shut down.
The women let out a small gasp of astonishment. Artemis looked over at Holly and Foaly and saw that they looked as startled as he was, especially Foaly who couldn’t figure ut what had just happened. How had his shields been disabled so easily?”
“B-But h-how,” she stuttered.
“I believe that this is a question that I would like answered as well,” said the man. “Would it be possible for you three to come up to my office with me and Minerva.” he gestured at the women by his side.
“O-OK,” stammered Holly into the silence that followed. There was something about this man that made him seem very powerful some how.
“Exelent,” said the man smiling warmly. “Now if you three would be so kind as to follow me.”
HE began walking out of the great hall with the women named Minerva in his wake. The three followed in silence. They went out into the entrance hall and up the marble staircase. They walked along some coridors and then reached a great staircase that stretched up higher then the eye could see. The staircases weren’t inobile but mobile. The staircases moved to different parts of the landings.
The three of them gasped in unision when they saw it. The adults pretended not to notice. They approached one of the staircases and begun to assend it.
“Be careful by the way,” said the man abrubtly. “The staircases like to change.”
The three of them were just pondering that statement when the staircase suddenly moved. It was moving upward. It suddenly stopped on what appeared to be the seventh floor. The man and woman got off the stairs and Holly, Artemis and Foaly followed.
The five of them walked along some other coridors and reached a stone gargyle. The man whispered something to it and it slid out of the way to reveal a moving spiral staircase moving upwards.
They all stepped onto the staircase and were carried up to an oaken door. The man opened the door and they all stepped into a large curcular room. There were portraits on the wall that appeared to be moving. and there were many silver instriments on little spindle-leg tables.
The man approached a desk and sat down on the chair behind it. HE took out the stick again and conjured four chairs from nowhere.
“Please,” said the man. ” sit, I won’t tollerate bed manners in my office.” They all sat.
“D’arvit,” breathed Holly.
“Now, before I ask you any questions I believe we should know each other’s manes at least. My name is Albus Dumbledoor. This,” he gestured to the women sitting beside Holly. “Is Minerva Magonigal. MAy I be so bold to wnquire what your names are.
“My name is Holly Short,” replied Holly slowly. “This is Artemis Fowl the second and Foaly.” She pointed to each of them in turn.
“Isn’t Artemis a female name,” said Magonigal Artemis sighed, he had expected someone to say that if they got cought.
“Actually, Artemis can refer to boys or girls. It means the hunter” said Dumbledoor smiling at Artemis warmly.

Wasn’t Ronan the name of a centaur in Harry Potter?
Well, it was cute. Pre-TLC fanfictions are the best.
June 24th, 2007 at 11:39 am

I love this!!! It’s awesome!!! And I’m not just saying that!! The only thing is that there are a LOT of typos. (I don’t know if it’s just wordpress that’s doing that though) You could use a spell check thingee or send it to a very spell perfect friend before you put it on the website. that’s what me and my friend do. AND IT HELPS!!!!! keep writing!!!!!! I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!
July 4th, 2007 at 1:07 pm
Great story! Love the idea of the People (and Artemis) discovering Hogwarts. Keep writing. There are a few minor spelling errors, but other than that great!
July 6th, 2007 at 1:06 pm
This is one of my fav fics. I can’t wait to find out what happens next.
July 19th, 2007 at 7:48 am
Hay sorry guys but I’m not going to be able to do more unless I get my Harry Potter book back from my cousin. So you’ll have to wait for a few weeks. Thanks for the complements ‘Holly S’ and hope your own fan fics turn out good. Love from who wlse but

Centaurs don’t have any magic at all. They rely on their brains and hooves. If centaurs don’t have magic, how can Foaly shield? I hate Commander Sool too.
August 31st, 2007 at 6:15 pm
Foaly can shield because I made him invent something that would help him shield. The same thing that Artemis used to shield you know Does that answer your question?
September 2nd, 2007 at 5:49 pm
Yea.
September 3rd, 2007 at 7:20 pm
What do you think of my prank of Umbridge. Tell me if you want me to tourture the old bat more and I would be glad of Ideas. It would be better to get others involved with this story. I hope you like the rest of it and keep up reading and REVIEWING.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

September 5th, 2007 at 5:40 pm

September 10th, 2007 at 4:33 am
I like it, a little bit of spelling, but at least it’s readble and has a realy cool storyline. I love what you did to Umbridge she reminds of my old math teacher only doesn’t have a syrupy voice.
September 10th, 2007 at 4:17 pm
Thank you very much. As I have said above I would love some sugestions about what I could do to Umbridge. There is only so much a LEP officer like myself can do (Giggles) Thank you so much.

I do not mean to sound rude but it is really long and i had to stop in the middle of it but otherwise it is good!
September 29th, 2007 at 9:21 pm
You should calm down and let the reviews come in without being a bit rude to everyone. Infact if i didn’t want to metion this to you then your rudness would actually stop me reviewing.
Try writing instead of ranting.
September 29th, 2007 at 9:22 pm
And this is your story. you really should come up with the ideas yourself.
September 30th, 2007 at 9:15 am
Thanks Vinyaya. I think I really needed that.
I gues I was just getting a little over excited and I’m sorry I was ranting on like an idiot. I really didn’t mean to be so rude.
Well sorry again.

December 6th, 2007 at 2:41 pm
The story is not finished and will not be finished for a long time. I just have a lot of things to do so I can’t update as often as I want. I will do my best to update ASAP but hold on my readers until then plaese. I can safely say that you’ll like what I have planned.
December 13th, 2007 at 1:56 am
I love it! Aside from a few spelling errors, the plot is quite creative, too.
December 17th, 2007 at 2:17 pm
Thanks for the comments. I know about the seplling mistakes but I really cant’ be bothered going through the whole thing again. I will be more careful in later chapters but for now please stop telling me about my misktaes. There will be a lot more of this story but I have exams on soon so I have to revise a lot. Keep a look out for the update but it might be a while comming just to warn you. Hope you all are well.
Love
Arya
January 20th, 2008 at 2:34 pm
COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
February 4th, 2008 at 2:36 pm
I have some ideas for the other animagus forms put I wanted to ask my readers what they thought. If you have any ideas just tell me. You never know, you might end up sugesting a really good one.
February 28th, 2008 at 6:23 pm
How long has it been since you updated?
March 3rd, 2008 at 12:09 pm
I don’t know. I’ve been busy with tests. I hate some of my teachers. They kept me busy revising for ages. I only had time to pop in and review a few things. Not to mention my lil sis has been hogging the computer so I didn’t bet much time.
I promise to update a little more often ok.
Love Arya.
June 21st, 2008 at 3:31 pm
Have you read the Warriors series? Because there’s a character in it named Lionheart. You probably haven’t, I’m just wondering. Your story is really, really good.
June 21st, 2008 at 5:37 pm
Okay, I know I just wrote a review, but now I finished the story. It is so unbelievably good!!!!! When can you update again? I can’y wait!
June 28th, 2008 at 9:20 am
I’m sorry I haven’t been on the site for ages. I’ve been having writers block. I’ve been reading some fics on fanfiction.net to try and get some ideas.
I have no idea how much longer it’ll be till I update again but I’m planning to do it soon. I got an idea from a HarryPotter/StarWar crossover I read so I’ll try and get the next chapter up ASAP.
May the force be with you
Arya.
July 30th, 2008 at 4:40 pm
Oh my gosh I can’t wait for you to update!! This is one of my favorite stories EVER!!! Later on in the story, are Artemis, Foaly, and Holly going to be in Dumbledore’s Army.
August 16th, 2008 at 9:34 pm
I just finished reading the story and all the other reviews and I loved it!(the story that is) As for the Animagus form ideas, how about a dragon or a griffin? loved the story, bye
September 4th, 2008 at 4:33 pm
Yeah, the AF characters are going to be part of the DA but I might rename it. In that case I’m open to sugestions. They can’t have a dragon form, sorry but it’s important to the sequel.(If I ever manage to finish this one anyway) I’m really sorry for not updating but I have sirius(get it) writers block so can’t really come up with anything for the enxt chapter. Feel free to tell me what you think should happen and I’ll do my best olay.
See you next time.
Arya
