His Guardian

Chapter 1: A Warm Winter

After 13 year old Artemis had had his mind wiped, he went on with life regularly. He continued school and his criminal ways. This included mostly stealing and selling masterpieces of artwork, and blackmailing. He was still protected by his bodyguard Butler and everything was quite normal. Nothing seemed to be wrong or missing in Artemis's life, but Holly knew better of this.

It has been a month after the mind wipes and Holly still haven't recovered from the truth: Artemis has forgotten her. She couldn't seem to let that genius go. All those precious memories they spent together were gone with only one click of a button. Every night, Holly cried at the corner of her room, remembering the cold, blue eyes of the genius that had kidnapped her, the brain of his, and his clever comebacks. They had spent life and death together. She giggled when she remembered the time when she socked Artemis in the face, making him fall in the snowdrift in the Artic, just a few months ago. They were so close to becoming friends, it was a pity that they never got the chance to become more.

Holly felt incomplete without the mud boy. Without him, she felt that she was full of holes and only him could complete her. She couldn't help but care for him. Her desire for his body made her realize that she was falling for that human. Every night Holly would repeat the scenes that she shared with Artemis. Starting from the kidnap, to the B'wa Kell goblin revolution, to the rescue mission of Artemis's father, to the Jon Spiro incident, and to the mind wipes. She wanted to be with him again, to protect him, to hear his sharp remarks like, "I don't like lollypops."

She often wondered if he had somehow fooled her mesmerize, if he had regained his memories yet. Knowing Artemis, he would try but what if Foaly was too smart and discovered all the hidden items that were to recover Artemis's memories? Holly constantly wondered how Artemis was. Is he well? Is he in trouble again? Does he need my help?

Soon Holly couldn't take it anymore and left Haven to find Artemis.

Winter came early that year and it snowed in Ireland that winter. Artemis was outside of Saint Bartleby's Public School for Young Gentlemen waiting for Butler to pick him up. The snow had stopped for now but it was only 25°. He was shivering in the 2 feet of snow that came in just in the early morning and looking more pale than usual. Even under 5 layers coats, Artemis still felt cold. Then, bizarrely, a warm breeze blew towards Artemis, returning the color to his cheeks. Artemis, became unusually hot under the coats.

"That's odd." muttered the genius while wiping a bead of sweat from his forehead.

Then, Artemis's sharp eyes noticed a trail of melted snow leading towards a black limo. Strange, thought Artemis, that trail wasn't there a minute ago. Then the limo gave a honk and the window to the limo pulled down. It was none other than Artemis's body guard.

"Artemis, come on, let's go home." shouted Butler. Artemis then followed the thawed out path to the car and rode back to the Fowl Manor. As the car drove away, he thought he saw a pair of hazel eyes behind the oak tree in front of school. He squinted his eyes to make out the mysterious person but it was gone.

Holly then stepped out from behind a tree and watched as Artemis's car pulled away.

When Artemis was home, he spent most of his afternoon indoors for there was a blizzard outside. He used that time thinking of the big hazel eyes he saw earlier.

"Whoever it was must of been crying," said Artemis, "I think it was a girl." Artemis was in his room discussing the eccentric events that happened to him today with Butler. "I wonder who she is and if she has anything to do with the warm breeze that I felt today."

"Artemis, the breeze could of come from any residence around there with a door ajar." explained Butler. "The girl could of been a student in your class. Don't get too excited and think that there are fairies."

Artemis thought about this. "My school in only for young men Butler. Anyways, you are correct. I am overreacting." Nevertheless, his instincts told him that whoever he saw earlier, was not some ordinary girl.

Holly was pleased to see Artemis again all well and normal, but it hurt her to not be able to confront him face to face. When Holly wasn't at work, she would fly to Artemis and watch him from afar just making sure he was safe. She didn't have the courage to get close to him for fear that he might recognize her, but a part of Holly desired Artemis to remember her. She watched him through the winter and kept him warm by creating a 10 feet radius heat guard around her, one of Foaly's many inventions. With this, she was able to keep Artemis warm even on the coldest day.

Winter arrived and left just as fast as it came. Soon spring came bringing longer days, rain, and more sightings of the mysterious girl.
