Reviewers

Schizophrenic squirrel: Yes Artemis is OOC. I’m trying to but him back in character though. Oh well lets just say he OOC because his hormones are out of whack. Any I’m glad you thought it was good.

Redleef: Yes I must agree. There will a fairy. However, that’s only because the end leads right in to the begging of the sequel. This will be all about saving the day Artemis and Holly style.

Melody: I’m glad that you liked it! Yes I have horrible grammar but I’m glad that you could still read it. Someday I hope to win a prize for it! Lol.

Senseikkhehe: I’m glad you like it. Yes this story is based on a Romeo and Juliet theme but some things are change quite a bit. Anyways, there will be other AF characters and Holly might come in at the end. No promise. But she will defiantly be in the sequel.

Chapter 2: Run

Ida stared at the open door in disbelieve. Total shock washed over her body. She even dropped her beloved phone.

“STOP THE DAMN CAR!”

Miguel stop, and she flew into the back of Mark's seat.

“What’s up Ida, why did-” then they saw the open door. Artemis had jumped out.

“How fast were you just going?” she asked

“About seventy mile per hour.”

Ida put her head in her hand and exhaled

“Fuck, he could be really hurt. We should have known that he might try something.”

Ida got out the car. She had to find him. She looked on the street were his limp, broken body should have been. But it wasn’t there. Some blood was there thought. She looked and saw the forest of trees and black berries bushes. It was dark so it was almost impossible to find him. But she had to try. She took a deep breath was hopped in.

He was hurt. He was bleeding in more then one place and was bleeding a lot. And the bushes keep scratching him. But he was alive. Gym class might finally become useful he thought. There was just enough moonlight for him to see his immediate front. He wandered on. He doubted that they would follow him in there. It was too crowed and you couldn’t really see. Unless you had a flashlight. He was safe for the moment. But without a phone and without his house keys

He had to come up with a plan. But his river of idea was drying up quickly.

Ida rushed through the forest of blackberries and trees. Surprisingly, she had not one scratch on her body, Thanks to the jacket that she put on. But more surprising was that she found him. How had she done that? He was in pretty bad shape. Blood was all over him, cloths torn and bruises on his arms. His head was in his hands. He must be thinking of a plan to escape, she thought.

After a moment,Ida walked over to him.

“What the fuck were you trying to pull over there!” she yelled

He didn’t answer.

“I asked you a question, damn it answer me!” she kicked his rib cage. He cried out in pain and spat out blood. Ida immediately felt sorry for him, but he should have answered her.

He looked really pitiful. It killed her to see it. She got down and sat next to him. She set him upright and helped him lean against a tree trunk. She then took a napkin from out of her pants pocket and wiped his face, pushing the hair out of his eyes. He looked at her with his deep blue eyes. There was only a tent of fear in them.

It was the first time that he really got to see his captor. Her skin was dark and smooth and her brown eyes were sparking. She smelt good too. Like pumpkins and vanilla

“That was a dumbass thing to do you know that right Artemis?”

“If I don’t say anything, will you kick me again?”

“I might be mean, but I’m not cruel.”

“So,” Artemis tried to pull himself up more and it caused him so much pain.

“What is it that you want me for? And who are you”

“I told I don’t know. But I’m Ida McGossicc.”

McGossicc. His shoot her a look that showed all too well about he felt about the McGossicc’s.

“Then I rather kill my then than go back with you.”

Ida slapped him hard in the face

“Oh believe Fowl boy,” She said standing up and lean over him. Her eyes now deadly “You would have been dead long ago if it wasn’t for my father telling me to bring you back to him alive!”

Artemis just stared at her coldly. She spat at him. And then called Miguel

“I found him but he can’t move far. Find me the quickest exit to the road”

“Okay hold on. Okay if you keep going strait there is a road. It about a five minute walk.”

“Any quicker ways?”

“No, not by the looks of it.”

“Okay we’ll be there in about ten minutes” she hung up.

Artemis stood up in pain. He was a good half a foot taller then her.

“Put your arm around my neck and lean on me”

“You’ll get really bloody”

“So? Hurry. were tight on schedule”

Artemis looked down on her and did what she said.

Ten minutes later, they were at the car. Ida opened the door and helped Artemis in.

“Who the fuck do you think you are bitch? Huh?” Mark yelled. Ida intervened.

“Go back to the cave you came from Mark and stop being such a jackass. It was a dumb ass move and he paid for it with his injuries. Miguel, drive faster. I want us to be at the airport in thirty-no twenty minutes. Mark, make yourself useful and call Zenkai. Tell him to go to the airport once he gets Artemis’s things. And hurry will you?” She grabbed a bottle of rubbing alcohol and started to clean his cuts. He winced bit but not too much.

“We’ll be on a private jet, in case you were wondering. You can change into more suitable clothing. You will be checked for broken bones and fractures on the plane. We have a nurse so she can help you.” She ran her hands down his arm. “I think your fine though”

“Thank you” he muttered and looked out the window. Ida locked his door and then intertwined her fingers with his.

“Sorry but you can’t be too careful.”

End Note: Wow. A tab bit shorter then the last one. I almost feel sorry for Art. Almost. Anyway tell me what you think! bye!
