The Power Of N

Chapter 10: The Family.

Chapter 10: The Family.

Holly, Butler, Juliet and Artemis are talking in a guest room with N.N. about the invitation they get from the D.P.A.

"Should we attend?" Juliet asked.

"All of us can't attend since it is a secret gathering but maybe if I bring one companion with me..." Artemis said.

"Then bring Holly." N.N. followed.

"No." Holly stared again at Artemis and is a bit hurt by that. He doesn't want Holly to be with her.

"Why?"

"If what you said is right then, I need someone who can fully understand what will happen inside the venue and the place is not mentioned but coordinates is given. Possibly this is underground..." Artemis explained. Be sure to talk to Holly about this later.

"Then... Holly will be in standby?"

"So is Butler..." Then Artemis turns to Juliet. "You take care of here."

"I will." Juliet soon goes out of the room as she notices she needs to prepare a dinner for them all.

"So, when are we going?"

"We still have four days to prepare. First we need to bring you to Haven."

"Okay."

After that N.N. leaves her room and went to Juliet with Butler to help her with preparing the foods. In the meantime, Artemis and Holly talks as they're alone.

"Can't I truly go?"

"No. We need you to standby."

"But aren't you risking N.N. if we let her go inside the gathering. There will be full of D.P.A officers."

"It was ten years ago. They won't recognize N.N. for that."

"But what if they check her identity?"

"There's nothing wrong if they check. Actually, I prefer if they check..."

"Why?"

"Remember when Mother asked N.N. about her name if it is registered or not?"

"Yes... What about it?"

"If what I think is true then they are planning to register N.N. in a different name..."

"You mean...?" Artemis looks directly into Holly's eyes as she held her waist.

"Adoption."

"WHAT?!"

"She's going to be my sister, Holly."

"Oh my God... I'm sure she will be happy. She's going to have a family."

"I'm sure she is but do you remember her old family... What they did to her?" Oh...Thought Holly. The staff of St. Laureth... They treat her just like one of the patients. Give her to D.P.A to let them do some experiments on her.

"But you won't do it... You're family is far from them." Holly said as she caressed Artemis face.

"I know." Artemis said as she kissed Holly in her cheek. "That is why there's no need to be jealous." Then he kisses her in the lips...

It's dinnertime in Fowl Manor. Everyone is settled and busy chatting and eating their foods, Angeline and Artemis Fowl Senior had been planning to announce the adoption of N.N. in this moment but Beckett interrupt them.

"I want more pasta." Beckett insists then suddenly a bowl lifts up from the table and come near at Beckett's. Everyone was shocked except for Butler, Artemis and Holly.
