While the adults were talking, Artemis saw some time to speak with Livia.
“Livia, this is insane. It was bad enough Blunt got you beaten up in the Spiro needle, you were knocked unconscious in the arctic, held hostage by a demon gang, been electrocuted by attempted assassination then held in hospital for nine hours for danger of going into a coma. Livia, we’ve been through a lot, and frankly, I don’t know how I dealt with all these, but I don’t think I will be able to deal with your death! “ He explained, holding her hands and searching her eyes. He was firm yet stern (Hey that rhymed! =D )
“Artemis, what ever happens tonight. I want you to know…I love you”
“Livia don’t talk like that, don’t you dare start talking like you’re about to die”
“You sound like Dean”
“No, Dean is a lot meaner” They laughed. Artemis noticed Livia was getting teary. The funny thing was, his eyes felt prickly and he had a lump in his throat. Dean walked over to Livia.
“Liv, I want you to stay close to me or Sam ok? We’re not gonna let Yellow eyes get a chance to get near you alright” Dean said to her.
“Okay” Livia replied. Livia smiled at Artemis. She gave everyone a huge hug, then they got their guns and crossed over the train tracks. They walked on for at least five hundred meters, then there was a cemetery.
“Oh please” Artemis said gruffly. Livia walked up behind him and gave him a nudge. They continued walking, and found a mausoleum in the middle of the grave yard. They walked up to the door of it.
“Looks like a mixed up symbol. I think it needs a key” Bobby commented.
“Alright, positions everyone. He should be here soon” Butler commanded. Everyone scattered. Artemis grabbed Livia just before he left.
“Livia, I love you”
“I love you too Arty” They smiled at each other. They shared , what could be, their last kiss.
Then they bolted off to their positions.

As the Sergeant crossed the railway lines, he couldn’t help feel some what jumpy. At two in the morning, there were all kinds of noises and tricks of light that would do that to a person. He kept walking until he came to the cemetery. Something was here, he could feel it. Now was not the time to be paranoid, he thought to himself. He walked on cautiously, keeping his grip firm on the gun. His eyes were dodging everywhere. Checking, watching, glancing for signs of another person. He walked on further and further, looking at the graves. He finally got to the front of the mausoleum. He glanced at the gun. He was about to put it in. Reaching forward…
“Put the gun down Sarge” Sergeant turned around. Dean was standing behind him, his gun aimed. The rest of the gang where there to. They were in a semicircle, surrounding him, all their guns aimed. From left to right. Butler, Bobby, Ellen, Dean, Sam, Livia, Artemis. They were standing their ground. Sergeant saw Sam, he looked like he’d seen a ghost.
“Hello Sergeant. Glad to see me again?” He said in a macho way. Artemis resisted the urge to roll his eyes and ‘oh come on’, instead he did this internally and kept his gun aimed.
“What are you doing here? You’re supposed to be dead” Sergeant said, in utter disbelief.
“I was. But I feel better” Sam retorted smugly.
“No way man, I cut clean through your spinal cord” Sergeant explained. Sam already knew Dean made a trade with the cross-road Demon. Dean had three years left.
“Yeah, well next time, finish the job” Sam said getting a snarl on his face. Who could blame him? This guy did try to kill him. Sergeant looked around, scowling, at all the members of the gang. He stopped at Livia. He gave her an evil smile.
“You. You’re meant to die some time tonight ain’t you? Heard it was gonna be real painful too” he chuckled evily. Dean was glaring at him. Artemis couldn’t help it. Curiosity brought out the worst in people.
“How did you know?” He asked, still aiming his gun. It helped that he was also speaking sternly. Dean glanced his direction then glared at Sergeant again. Sergeant was still smiling.
“I hear things” He glanced at Ellen. “ Hey lady, do me a favour” His eyes flashed for a second.
“Put that gun to your head ”She hesitated then she started moving it. Ellen’s hand was shaking terribly, trying to restrain. But it didn’t work, she had the gun to her head. Artemis was shocked. This man obviously had some sort of mesmer power, but without the voice. He would have to tell Foaly about this. Ellen was frustrated.
“Shoot him” She said sternly, still fighting the mind control.
“Oh you do that, and she’ll be dead before you get one shot”
“Let her go sarge” Livia ordered.
“No, you listen to me. Put your guns down now” He glanced at Ellen . “’sept you sweetheart”
He said grinning. Everyone hesitated.
“Put them down Now!” Sarge yelled. Everyone did so. Sam inched closer towards Livia as they put their guns down. The second every gun was on the ground, Sarge grabbed his gun and rushed to the key hole. Bobby and Dean fought the gun from Ellen. They grabbed their guns again. But it was too late. Sarge had put the Colt in the key hole. The symbol was spinning so fast, the lines were slowing down until it was a pentagram again. There was a flash.
“Everyone! Shelter now!!” Bobby yelled. Everyone, except Sarge, ran and jumped over a head stone, hiding behind it. The gates flew open, a blast of wind burst out, along with demon smokes, ghosts, spirits everything every hunter had ever hunted and killed was coming out. Everyone got their guns back and ran out from behind the graves. Sam had got his gun and he shot Sarge three times in the back. There was a smell of sulpher and it got extremely windy. If you had of been above the railway lines that night, you would have seen the lines speed to all the ends of the tracks to the churches then flash once more, showing the Devil’s trap. This lasted only a few seconds. Meanwhile back where yellow eyes was waiting, another demon broke the railway. This allowed him through.
“Time to take the family home” he said to himself. Butler was yelling so he could be heard over the roar of the wind and other supernatural beings.
“What on earth is going on!” He shouted.
“That’s a Devil’s gate! A damn door to hell!” Ellen informed him, also yelling.
“We gotta shut that damn thing!” Bobby yelled. Sam was on the steps, standing over Sarge, who was breathing his last breaths.
“What you going to do now Sammy? You gonna kill me this time? You couldn’t before”
“Shut up”
“ Come on. Do it” He said, panting. Sam was hesitating, but hate got the better of him. He aimed then shot him again. Three times. Again. Blood splattered on his face. Sam’s lips were quivering. Dean came up to him. Sam was slightly wobbling but he had a satisfied yet unbelief smile on. He grabbed the Colt and slipped it in his pocket. As Butler, Bobby, Ellen, Livia and Artemis ran to the gate, they went to either door and started pushing, trying to shut it. Butler, Ellen, Sam and Livia were on the right door and Dean, Bobby and Artemis were on the left one. They were pushing as hard they could. Unknown to everyone, Yellow eyes was at the edge of the cemetery, watching them all, smiling at the thought of sweet torture to these boys.
Butler was at the front of the line, pushing with all his might, sweating. It had nothing to do with the weight. He could lift two elephants and not break a sweat. It was this damn heat from hell. Ellen was trying to push as well, then Sam then Livia. Livia heard whispers. She got scared and tried to ignore them. Then something grabbed her and put its hand over her mouth, muffling her screams. She disappeared. She turned around to see Yellow eyes grinning at her.
“Told you my project would come” then he dragged her out towards a dead tree in the center of the grave yard. As soon as Livia was snatched by Yellow eyes, Sam noticed something was wrong. Livia wasn’t hanging onto him. He turned around to see no-one there. He ran from the door. Leaving more weight for Ellen and Butler to push. He ran towards Dean and Artemis.
“Dean! Liv’s gone!” He shouted.
“Damn it!” Dean shouted. He let go of the door, Artemis right behind him. Time for swearing later. Yellow eyes was going to kill Livia. They glanced around. Sam was the first to find Livia. He tapped Dean on the shoulder, then Artemis. They all stared at Livia. She was crying her eyes out. Actually that’s an under statement. She was weeping her eyes out. She kissed her hand and blew a kiss to them all. She then whispered good-bye. They saw a dark shape with Yellow glinting eyes appear like mist behind her . Then something punched through Livia. Above her hip on the right hand side. She screamed in pain. The scream echoed around. The shape disappeared. Livia clutched the wound, blood pouring over her hands. She then collapsed to the ground. As soon as the figure had disappeared, all three boys ran towards Livia.
“LIVIA!!” Dean shouted.
“LIV!” Sam yelled.
“NO!! LIV!” Artemis yelled the loudest. They all ran. The figure appeared again, crouched above Livia. Yellow eyes was grinning at her.
“I told you it would be painful and memorable” he smiled, misting away again.
Artemis was the first to reach Livia. She was shaking, groaning and gasping in pain. all the boys crouched around her, they were all crying.
“Lis. Liv, hang on, it’s gonna be okay I promise, you’ll be fine I swear” Dean said to her through tears. Livia half smiled, half spluttered. Sam was leaning her on his knees.
“Dean, Sam I’m sorry…I..I..ahhhhhh!….I…I love you guys..so much…you’re the best brothers in the world, and I wouldn’t have anybody else….urghhh!” She said, and screamed. Sam, Artemis and Dean were in tears. Dean grabbed the gun from Sam’s back pocket.
“This ends. Tonight. I’m gonna save you Liv, if it’s the last thing I do” He walked over to the tree. Sam glanced at him, still crying. He looked at Artemis.
“Here, hold her, I gotta save my brother before he kills himself too” he said. Artemis took Sam’s spot.
“Liv, I’m so sorry. I should have come up with a better plan”
“Artemis don’t” She leaned her head to see the boys. She was still moaning and the pain was unbearable, but she had to fight on.
“Come out and show yourself you cowardly son of a b*tch!” Dean was yelling. Yellow eyes appeared. He used his powers to throw Dean against a grave. He cut his head and dropped the Colt. He couldn’t lift his arms from the grave. Yellow eyes then turned around to see Sam charging at him. He pinned Sam against the tree. He then said something in Latin which kept both boys pinned to their, well, objects. He grabbed the Colt.
“Let them go” Livia stuttered. Yellow eyes smiled at her.
“I’ll be there soon sweetheart” he grinned. He walked up to Dean and Crouched down so they were at eye level.
“Well Dean, looks like you can’t save your own family, let alone your sweet little sister” he said. He punched Dean across the face.
“Dean!” Sam shouted. Yellow eyes walked over towards him.
“Looks like I under estimated you Sammy. You are a killer” He said almost fondly. Livia screamed in pain again. Yellow eyes walked over so he was in the middle of all of them.
“You hear that boys? That’s the sound your mummy made when she died. So did sweet ol’ Jess and daddy dearest. Now it’s happening again to poor, little, Livy.” He said smugly. Watching all of them. Artemis was getting mad. He was giving Yellow eyes his fiercest expression.
“You will pay for this Demon. Mark my words, you will pay” he said sternly. Livia was still gulping and groaning in pain. She was also shaking a bit. Yellow eyes faced him, still grinning.
“Little Artemis Fowl. It’s becoming a habit for you isn’t it? Saving people’s lives. Kudos to you for getting your daddy back by the way.”
“What are you talking about?
“I was the one who let him live.”
“But it was the Mafia”
“They were possessed! They were working for me. Just like your mother”
“Liar!”
“Why do you think she went mad?”
“Because my father was missing!”
“Because she made a deal with me! Her husbands life for the lives of other hunters who were on our trail. Haven’t you noticed, how she never quite looked Sam, Dean and Livia in the eyes?”
“Don’t….Don’t listen….ahhh….to him….he’s a liar” Livia stuttered to Artemis, who was breathing deeply.
“Oh am I now? Just like I lied about you dying?” He asked her smugly. Livia just groaned in pain.
“I’m gonna kill you… you son of a b*tch…For what you’ve done to me, Sam and Dean, and Artemis” She Said with all her effort. She said it quite fiercely too. Yellow eyes then glanced at Dean.
“It’s a shame you know. Sam was going to be a lawyer, he was even going to marry Jess, been shopping for rings and everything. Then within the years, Artemis and Livia were going to marry aswell. But you Dean, you are all alone. got nothing install for you. Everyone here has a lover but you.” Yellow eyes lost his smug grin. Livia nudged Artemis, he brought his head down so Livia could whisper.
“Look… behind Yellow eyes” she whispered, groaning slightly. Artemis did so. There was a man, with a white luminous glow radiating off him. He was sneaking up on Yellow eyes while he was still ranting.
“It’s John” She explained, a smile growing on her face. And indeed it was John, for Sam and Dean looked at him in disbelief. He grabbed Yellow eyes, or more precisely, when he grabbed him the Demon mist with Yellow eyes got stuck in his grip while the human possession fell down. While Yellow eyes was wrestling with John, He dropped the Colt.
“Get the gun” Livia instructed him urgently. Artemis didn’t argue. Livia knew more on these Demons and the gun than he did. He knew she had a plan and her plans were almost as good as his. He placed Livia down on the ground gently, then crouching, ran and grabbed the Colt. He ran back.
“Ok, help me up”
“Livia, it’s better if you stay down”
“Arty, this is important. This ends. tonight.” Livia was determined, and when she was determined, something was about to be put into peace. He grudgingly helped her up. She aimed the Colt. Yellow eyes wrestled off John, whose spirit fell to the floor. Yellow eyes went back into the human body. He got up and stood over John.
“What a pain in the a*s you’ve been.” he said. He was about to slash down on him when he heard a voice.
“Hey ugly, you’ve been a pain in the a*s too”. Everyone turned and looked at Livia. She was slightly leaning on Artemis but her aim was true. They both had fierce but determined expressions on their face. Before Yellow eyes had time to react, Livia shot. The bullet went straight through forehead, straight through his brain. You could see the electrocution in the body as the bullet targeted the Demon. It was like a fire work x-ray. You could see the ribs and organs light up. He collapsed to the ground still lighting up. There was nothing left but a smoking corpse. Yellow eyes was finally dead. Livia screamed in pain again.
“Artemis, go help Sam get Dean up” she her a kiss on the asked him politely. Artemis nodded then gave forehead. John was standing infront of her.
“Thanks son” John said to him. Artemis smiled in appreciation. He then walked to Sam who fell from being pinned to the tree. John smiled at Livia. Livia was getting teary.
“Thanks Livia. The boys owe you one, so do I. You’ve been a wonderful sister to them”
“John, they miss you so much. We miss you. But, I’m still dying, the pain is almost unbearable” She said to him. Gasping for air. John frowned slightly.
“Show me the wound” he told her. Livia grudgingly, and painfully, lifted her hands off the wound. Blood was still gushing. John looked up at Livia.
“You still have time” he said softly. He placed his hand over her wound. Blue lights, like Holly’s healing, were dancing around and going into the wound itself. It didn’t heal, it still felt the same, but she knew John knew what he was doing. He smiled at her then hugged her.
“Thank-you Liv.”
“Your welcome John” She said sniffling slightly. John then went over to Sam and Dean. Artemis came back over to Livia and helped her down to the ground again. She was still yelping and groaning in pain. She saw Sam and Dean give their father a last hug and then he was, engulfed in a beautiful white light. Sam and Dean then ran over to Livia. They crouched around her, tears still in their eyes.
“Liv, I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to screw up, but I did. I’m so sorry” Dean was pleading.
“Dean it’s ok. Sam. I’m sorry that he killed Jess. It would have been great for us all to be a big happy family, with Jess as your wife”
“Come on, were all closer now. Come on, hold on Liv, your gonna make it” He was also crying, his lips quivering.
“Guys, my time is running out. Dean, Sam, you guys are the best brothers ever ok. I love you guys like heaven and earth. Promise me, you’ll give me a nice funeral? And no roses” She joked.
“Liv, don’t talk like that, you won’t need a funeral, you’ll be fine” Dean said to her. He bent down and gave her a kiss on the cheek, then he hugged her. Sam did the same.
“Your gonna live Livia, I promise” Sam said.
“Sam, don’t make promises you can’t keep” She said softly. She looked up at Artemis. Who, for the first time she knew, was actually crying too.
“Arty, I love you. So much…..I love you more than there are stars in the sky, more than there are grains of sand on the beach….ahhhhh” she said and groaned.
“Livia, this is my fault. It was my plan that failed, but you killed Yellow eyes anyway…but still it was my..” He was interupted by Livia placing a finger on his lips.
“I love you. I forgive you. All of you. But you’re going to have to let me go. My time is coming” She said. “Good-bye boys. Say good bye to the fairies for me.”
“We will. Good-bye Liv.” Sam whispered.
“Bye Liv,” Dean whispered too.
“Good bye Arty, I’ll be watching over all of you, especially you Dean” Livia joked, looking at Dean. They all chuckled slightly. She smiled at Artemis, then she stroked his cheek with her hand.
“I love you”
“I love you too” Artemis whispered. He bent down and kissed her warm lips. Then when they broke apart, she smiled at them. She was smiling at Artemis, then she started closing her eyes. When she finally closed them, her body stopped moving with breath. She was gone.
