Pluck the acorn, that's all, then it's done...

Captain Artemis soared over the ocean, the full moon shining brightly in the sky. A couple dolphins surfaced from the water and playfully chittered at Artemis and kept pace with him.

Up ahead, Ireland came into view. Artemis flicked the throttle wide and blasted off, he went so fast, a wispy ghost image of Artemis was left behind. He approached a large flat area with a river, twisting around a large grand oak tree, this was the ritual site.

There was a better ritual spot in Tara, but, every fairy with an aboveground pass would be dancing around the magic site. Artemis cut the wing's engine and glided down towards the grand tree.

Upon reaching the tall oak, Artemis climbed up it's long and many branches and plucked an acorn from the upper tree. He leapt down from the tree, checked his radar for any hostile forces and bent down to plant the acorn.

The proximity alarm flashed a deep crimson red.

"Go Butler." Whispered Holly. Butler plucked his modified dart rifle from his broad back and took aim at the small creature.

In spite of the million-to-one odds, it was at that precise moment that the humanoid creature bent low to the earth.

[Censored] Thought Butler

XxXxXxXxXx

Something whizzed over Artemis' head.

Snatching the Neutrino 2000 from his belt, he aimed his pistol where he thought the shot came from.

I am under fire, how can this be possible?

"Nice peashooter" Grinned a figure which just appeared behind Artemis and smothered the hand clutching the pistol with a turnip sized fist.

Artemis dove back and scowled at these newcomers, humans by the looks of it.

"Stay back human, you don't know what your dealing with"

The human girl laughed, "I believe, fairy, that you are the one unfamiliar with the facts"

Fairy? The human girl knew he was a fairy

Artemis ran at the girl, he was about to deliver the best punch an awesome LEP captain could do, when the giant human reached for a dart gun on a holster on his belt and shot Artemis point blank in the chest.

"Nope" said the giant human.

D'arvit though ARtemis and collapsed on the ground.

But, just before Artemis could succumb to the darkness, he snatched an adrenaline patch from his belt and slapped it on his arm, immediately, the darkness cleared up from Artemis' eyesight and he felt a lot better than he had felt a few moments before. He decided that he would pretend to be unconscious, than make his move.

The human girl, who was actually Holly, (You probably knew) bent over and checked Artemis' pulse.

"The fairy is alive." she stated.

Quick as a flash, Artemis kicked Holly's leg and sent her sprawling to the ground. Artemis engaged his wings and took to the sky, however, Holly's once LEP instincts kicked in for a second, she snatched the dart gun form Butler and shot Artemis right in the arm, just below the shoulder.

Artemis crashed to the ground in a most amusing manner.

XxXxXxXxXx

Holly was excited, she had finally been able to kidnap a fairy! But, she had an odd feeling about this fairy, he seemed so...familiar.

As Holly studied his facial features again and again, the fairy blearily cracked open an eye.

"whuure amm I?" asked the fairy.

Holly concentrated until a couple of the memory blocking clouds lifted, allowing her to remember Artemis, for a short amount of time.

"Artemis." whispered Holly so that Butler would not hear, "Are you okay?"

Thankfully, Artemis still had a solitary spark of magic to power his Gift of tongues.

"How do you know my name?!" he demanded.

Holly sighed, "Just try to remember Artemis."

The LEP captain did try, so hard in fact that sweat greased his brow. "H-Holly?"

"Artemis, what the hell is going on here?" Demanded Holly.

"I honestly have no clue." replied Artemis.

Holly punched his smaller shoulder, "Ow! You know that hurts quite a bit more when your bigger than me!"

Holly stuck out her tongue, "Too bad mud b-, umm, fairy-boy."

Artemis felt sleepy again, and was soon taken under by the sleep drug.
