The darkness surrounded her as she walked home from his house.  A streetlight a few yards away was the only sorce of light.  There wasn’t a moon, the sky was too cloudy. Somewhere in the distance, a clock struck 12.  She hadnt meant to stay out late, and she knew her Father and Mother wouldnt be happy.  “Too many people have disappeared recently,” they said, “Dont go outside after dark until the killer is caught,”  She wished she had listened to them.  At least she was nearly home.  She heard a noise behind her.  She walked a little faster.  The noise came louder.  Kayla started to run.  She wasnt fast enough.  Some one came from behind her, and put a cloth in front of her nose and mouth.  She was imediatly asleep.

 Meanwhile, back by Artemis.

             Artemis woke from a strange dream.   He sat, trying to remember what had happened. He rememebered a girl, getting attacted.  This was part of a series of dreams that he had been having.  It was quite wierd, he couldnt rememeber ever dreaming before, and 12 days ago bam!  it happened.  He groaned and looked at the clock, it read 1:00, way too early to do anything but sleep wasnt comming easily.  So he got up and went to go check his email. 

“junk, junk,”he muttered, “Hey? whats this?”

He opened the email from Foaly, It read:

    Hey mud boy, what are you up you?  We need you, and well, we checked and saw that you were online so we sent Holly.  She should be behind you right now.  TTFN,

                                       Foaly

Artemis felt a hand on his shoulder, and as he turned around, he saw the fase that he thought he would.

“Hello, Holly.  How did you get here so fast, I just got the message 2 minutes ago?” He asked.

Holly looked away, ashamed face.

“You have been following me, havent you?” artemis guessed.

“Yea, sorry about that, it wasnt my idea, it was the Concil’s.”  she said

“Ahh, they still dont trust me huh?'’

“Nope, anyways, i am supposed to take you to North America, New York, to be exact.” 

“I see, any reason for this?”

“Yes, there have been a series of disapearences, Human-Fairy mix.”

“Human-fairy mix?”

“Yes Artemis, Fairies fall for Humans too,”

“Okay then, well I’ll go and wake Butler,”  Artimis said with a smile.
