Artemis fowl 6 pdf download
Very well, he thought. To business, Doctor Kronski. You are n o t the only smart one in the souq. W h a t sort of lock-up doesn't have wings? A camouflage suit! Does he honestly believe himself a general in some war against the animal kingdom?
Ten-year-old A r t e m i s felt as though he had b e e n dipped in It is a simple matter. Walk to the centre and set down the cage. But even walking through this souq was n o t simple. A r t e m i s ' s throat dozens of sopping hides. Strings of dye flew through the was sandpaper dry, and he could hear his breath and pulse striping the clothes o f tourists and o t h e r w o r k e r s.
And the stench. T h e stench was a h o t wind gusting in his nose and eyes. A r t e m i s was forced to tread carefully and give way several times b e f o r e he eventually r e a c h e d the small clearing at the centre. Father needs me. Also, I refuse to be cowed that folded out from the top of his hunting cane, puffing by this odious man. T h e souq was a confusing kaleidoscope of pumping limbs, 'Apparently, I ' m missing out on half the e x p e r i e n c e , ' he splashing dye and evening shadows.
And, from A r t e m i s ' s said, as though they w e r e simply continuing a conversation. E l b o w s ' T h e best part of a cigar is the aroma, and I c a n ' t smell a flashed past, urns rang like bells and the air was shattered thing. Artemis was silently infuriated. The man looked completely comfortable, with barely a drop of sweat on his brow.
He I mii n o t his whereabouts. His fingers twitched once m o r e and forced himself to smile. Let's get this business over with. And I ' m sure you appreciate that I will n e e d to s e e a sample of your currency. He carelessly selected o n e and passed II across to A r t e m i s. IIKI It was t r u e ; A r t e m i s felt that the only thing holding him upright was the dried sweat on his spine.
He was hungry, tired and irritable. The end justifies the sacrifices. Just grab it. No need to part with the hundred thousand. His of offhand nature vanished, replaced with a giddiness.
O n e word was enough. Kronski knew Butler's reputation, Perhaps a normal child, thought A r t e m i s sourly. Christmas morning holds no surprises for me, thanks to the X-ray scanner buttons, w h i c h Holly was n o w sprinkling into the un- on my mobile phone.
He leaned over the cage daintily, squinting through the airholes. All appears to be in order. A boy like you c a n ' t have many friends. He hoisted the animal aloft like a trophy, checking him from all angles. A r t e m i s t o o k a step b a c k , casting suspicious glances around the souq. Perhaps nothing is going to happen, he thought. Perhaps those creatures were not as resourceful as I believed.
I may have to be content with the hundred thousand for now. And then the resourceful creatures arrived. Any sudden gestures or collisions could cause h e r body to vent magical fireworks, which would l o o k strange igniting out of thin air.
S o , softly, softly was the way to m o v e. Holly dropped the last of the b u t t o n s , feeling totally vulnerable in spite of h e r invisibility. It's nice to have an allseeing eye. A n o t h e r gift from the lock-up. G e t ready to b l o w the buttons.
He had the l e m u r out now, holding it away from his body. She ran a finger along the small strip in h e r hand, until Holly did n o t have wings to fly but that did n o t m e a n she all the tiny lights t u r n e d g r e e n.
A o n e - w o r d message scrolled couldn't cause havoc. T h e r e had b e e n no weapons in the across the strip. L E P lock-up beyond the single N e u t r i n o , but there had Detonate? Several m o r e vats quickly followed suit, T h e leather w o r k e r s shook their heads in wonder, then thumping like m o r t a r s , hurling their c o n t e n t s into the began to curse their l u c k. A day's profit g o n e.
Kronski squealed for several seconds after the dust had A symphony of colour, thought A r t e m i s from his p e r c h. Butler's view is totally obscured. A r t e m i s grinned nastily. Tt isn't over until the fat lady B e l o w in the souq, p a n d e m o n i u m was instantaneous.
S o m e realized that their precious leathers w e r e deeply as the red spots r e t r e a t e d from his c h e e k s. It was being coated with the w r o n g hues and began to feverishly n o t until he tried to w i p e the gunk from his hand that he gather their wares and t o o l s.
Watch the animal. They want the animal. As he stared in disbelief at his fingers, Kronski felt the stuff coating his fingers harden into a glowing gauntlet. Suddenly you can pronounce my name.
T have done nothing, D a m o n. I delivered the l e m u r ; you Kronski squealed with each explosion, balancing on a single leg like a scared ballet dancer. He t o r e off his glasses to reveal red- Priceless, thought A r t e m i s , and shot a few seconds of r i m m e d eyes. Somehow, you video on his p h o n e. S o m e t h i n g else was about to happen; are a participant in this.
A r t e m i s had a vague impression that the earth e x p l o d e d in front of Kronski's feet. Mission accomplished. He p o c k e t e d the m o b i l e phone and smiled broadly at Kronski. I may be able to help you with that. Don't do it, old friend. I know you were never comfortable with my schemes. In three quick strides, the bodyguard moved to Holly's A r t e m i s the elder sat in the c h a m pod, watching events vat and netted the e l f in his blanket.
She struggled and fought, unfurling below. Everything w e n t exactly to plan, with the but never had a chance against Butler's formidable strength. In five m o r e seconds Butler was out of the Butler's view is completely blocked, he thought. And then he gate and lost in the gathering crowds of the medina.
Of course! I wouldn't have placed Butler in that It all happened so quickly that A r t e m i s ' s j a w did n o t window at all. I would have put a decoy there, as it is one of the have t i m e to drop. In fact, I would have put the smugness that c o m e s with being the smartest p e r s o n a decoy in all fve spots and then have Butler hide himself some- in the m e t a p h o r i c a l r o o m.
T h e n e x t , he was crashing b a c k where on the souq floor, ready to step in if those pesky lemur-nappers to earth, having sacrificed his queen for a r o o k , realizing showed up again, which they very well could, as they seem to know he was up against s o m e b o d y j u s t as s m a r t as he was, only my every move.
I, Artemis Fowl, have been bamboozled by myself. Suddenly, a horrifying thought s t r u c k h i m. I think. They have Holly. The Extinctionists will put her on trial on charges of breathing human air. Every defendant is entitled to T h e n a few seconds of w h i t e noise, sharp snaps and a good lawyer.
It was t o o late. A r t e m i s could only press his face against the screen and watch helplessly as o n e of the leather w o r k e r s shrugged off his shoulder blanket and straightened, revealing h i m s e l f to be far taller than he had previously appeared.
It was, of c o u r s e , Butler, with a hand-held infra-red scanner extended before him. A guard with bulk to m a t c h Butler's waved t h e m through underneath a walkway arch in the four-metre-high wall.
Information is power. T h e residential chalets w e r e built i n the style o f ARTE Kl IS the younger agreed t o a c c o m - Californian beachouses, flat roofs and plenty of glass, clus- pany D o c t o r Kronski to his gated c o m p o u n d t e r e d around a m a n - m a d e b e a c h , c o m p l e t e with wave near the medina. Kronski's Land R o v e r was machine and lifeguard.
A human a r m with the world in its fist. T h e symbol Kronski did n o t answer. He hadn't spoken m u c h since o f the Extinctionists. It didn't s e e m to b o t h e r him that his grandest chalet and the d o c t o r led the way inside word- suit was covered in dye, w h i c h was transferring itself to lessly. He flapped a hand towards a hide-covered sofa, and his expensive upholstery. O n e wall was covered with certificates of e x t i n c t i o n , c o m p l e t e ' S i t down, Ah-temis,' he said, gesturing towards the sofa with a hide-bound fly swatter.
I think I'll stand. It's difficult to be taken seriously w h e n your feet one of the particular species. H e r e was a Japanese sea lion, and a Yangtze river dolphin. All g o n e forever. A n d n o w that I have finally back in time. T h e sofa was upholstered with the pelts of Falkland Island wolves. M o r o c c o is hardly convenient. I had to build this But the faint voice of his c o n s c i e n c e r e m i n d e d him that compound to entice them down here, and promise a big leaving would n o t m e a n that this place no l o n g e r e x i s t e d , opening to the conference.
And now all I have to show is a and selling the strange creature to Kronski would only draw shining hand. Kronski brandished his hand, which was largely slime A r t e m i s conjured a picture of his father in his m i n d.
Whatever I have to do. T w o n ' t pay a single stone until I verify Kronski's frown was sceptical, but he leaned forward, a r m s slightly o u t s t r e t c h e d.
His face says no, thought A r t e m i s. But his body language says yes. B u t you w o n ' t double-cross Butler. You are n o t a stupid man. T g o t to hand it to you, boy. You have all the angles figured. You present ' e m well ' W h a t is this? P h o t o manipulation? This creature is real. Nothing m o r e. So you d o n ' t pay until you're satisfied. Kronski clapped his hands and laughed. It makes T already paid. Possibly a threat to mankind.
This is 'Immediately,' replied A r t e m i s. We can m e e t him in the grand lodge in o n e Kronski nodded. E v e r since the koala in Cleveland. B u t l e r removed his hand and A r t e m i s unzipped the duffel, exposing the figure inside. It's so embarassing. Koala in Cleveland. Kronski stared into the m i s m a t c h e d eyes. Ran a hand ' Anyway,' continued the doctor, ' h o w did he get in h e r e? T c a m e in the same way you did, then staggered to the office bar, pouring h i m s e l f a glass of water with shaky hands.
No upping the p r i c e now. M o r e lax on your part than clever on ours. Do you have the merchandise 'Five million,' he said. T h e LEP s c o o t e r designed to resemble a 1 9 5 0 s human Lambretta. I o n c e m e t a T h e Ifrane road outside the imperial city was part of the guy in Laos w h o could put the w h a m m y on you, b u t fertile Fez river basin and was lined with olive groves and nothing like this.
She t r i e d it on outside the souq and I g o l f courses. A l s o , as we Ancient and modern. I lost Holly. A half-decent plan. B e c a u s e , without Holly, all was little furry fellow and you g e t me a trolley of L E P t e c h lost.
J o b done, b o t h parties happy. Holly had nosed the shuttle ' L e m u r s cannot use advanced plumbing. He collapsed the s c o o t e r into a Frisbee-sized disc and c l i m b e d down through the r o o f hatch. M u l c h Diggums was idly swivelling h i m s e l f in the pilot's chair. Have you lost h e r? H e sacrificed it for Holly. See you. See you? H e accepts responsibility. A hairpin is useless, E x c a l i b u r is wonderful, and so on. Now, if you had said a rubber hairpin.
Do you see what I ' m getting at? A r t e m i s ignored h i m , tapping furiously at the v-board that had appeared in front of h i m. He n e e d e d to k n o w everything he could about the Extinctionists and Foaly had an extensive file on t h e m. M u l c h ticked Jayjay under the chin. I suppose I could dig in and rescue her.
Kronski has seen the tunnel rescue before and he w o n ' t fall for it again. At any rate, you wouldn't survive the animals he had hunted to e x t i n c t i o n. He always awoke smiling. Everything has to he perfect. This is the biggest night of my life. Thank you, little Ah-temis. Even underground you T h e r e was a lot riding on this c o n f e r e n c e , and the banquet wouldn't be safe.
T h e earth is so dry that cracks can pene- generally set the t o n e for the entire w e e k e n d. Pull off s o m e - trate up to fifteen metres in open ground. O n e pinprick of 11 ling big at the banquet trial and the m e m b e r s would be midday sun and you would crisp like an old b o o k in a furnace.
So what are you going to d o? And it doesn't get any bigger than a brand-new sentient species. The Extinctionists are about to go global. Truth be told, the Extinctionists w e r e old news. Subscriptions w e r e dropping off and, for the first ' I ' m going to the Extinctionists' banquet tonight,' he said, lime since its inception, the c o n f e r e n c e was n o t a total sell- flicking the card with his forefinger. In the beginning it had b e e n wonderful — so many invited. All I n e e d is a disguise and s o m e medical supplies.
You're almost tries w e r e protecting their rare animals, especially the big as devious as I am. It would take t i m e to firm up his cover. T h e r e was no flying into India for a tiger shoot any m o r e. And the sub-Saharan nations t o o k it e x t r e m e l y badly if a group of w e l l - a r m e d Extinctionists showed up at o n e of their reserves and began taking p o t shots at elephants.
Refusing bribes. Kronski's nerves w e r e frazzled. T h e g r o u p way through the tunes from Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor had b e c o m e a t o u c h s t o n e for the lunatic fringe. His h e a r t - Dreamcoat. Kronski often d r e a m e d that he was wearing the felt hatred for the animal kingdom was attracting b l o o d - T e c h n i c o l o r coat and it was fashioned from the pelts of all thirsty crazies w h o c o u l d n o t see past putting a bullet in AAAA AAAA a dumb beast.
An animal w i t h o u t uses is wasting precious air and should be w i p e d out. Her friends will free her. They almost outsmarted me; they can certainly outsmart Kronski. That fairy creature is probably on her B u t this n e w creature changed everything. A r t e m i s distracted h i m s e l f from this shaky reasoning by concentrating on K r o n s k i.
One year of donations, thought K r o n s k i. Then I retire to enjoy my wealth. Something really should be done about that man. This fairy, or whatever it is, is worth ten times that. A hundred times. Purple, he thought. Tonight I shall be emperor.
As an afterthought he p l u c k e d a m a t c h i n g tasselled Caspian tiger-skin hat from an upper shelf.
When in Fez, he thought brightly. Thanks to a powerful and illegal antenna in the j e t ' s cargo bay he was able to pick up radio, television and Internet signals almost anywhere in the w o r l d.
Organizations like the Extinctionists live and die on their reputations, he thought. It would be an amusing exercise to destroy Kronski's reputation using the power of the web.
Or some herbal tea. Artemis frowned. It was the right thing to do, but it was not on his agenda. Returning to Fez would n o t save his lather. B u t l e r folded his paper plate in half, trapping the debris from his m e a l inside. All you need to do is say the word. Do you really think such an advanced race will leave their technology unprotected? I wouldn't be surprised if that gun is melting in Kronski's hands.
I had to leave it as a sweetener. I made a deal and that's the end of it. So you are governed by some sort of code now. H o n o u r among criminals. S o , what's that you're cooking up on your c o m p u t e r? All of this is for my father. You k n o w it must be done. Five minutes later, B u t l e r t o o k pity on the ten-year-old. T thought we might turn the plane around and give those strange creatures a little help. Fez Saiss airport has r e - o p e n e d so we could be b a c k there in a couple of hours.
Kronski spotted a lady sporting thigh-length i b e x boots. Pyrenean, if he wasn't mistaken. And there was old Jeffrey C o o n t z - M e y e r s with his quagga-backed tweed j a c k e t. And Contessa Irina Kostovich, her pale n e c k p r o t e c t e d from the evening chill by a Honshu-wolf stole. Every year there w e r e fewer n e w c o m e r s to the ranks, but that would all change after the trial tonight.
He skipped along towards the banquet hall. T h e hall itself had b e e n designed by Schiller-Haus in M u n i c h , and was essentially a huge prefabricated kit which had arrived in containers and b e e n e r e c t e d by G e r m a n hack and no obvious flash of light, but the ham was n o w specialists in less than four w e e k s.
Incredible really. It was steaming and ready to serve. Fair trials, thought K r o n s k i , and giggled. T h e main doors w e r e guarded by two burly M o r o c c a n ' M y goodness,' he said in wonderment. Kronski had considered crested ' N o tunnelling out this t i m e , ' he announced.
Do you speak English, creature? I am Doctor No-Animals. K r o n s k i b r e e z e d past t h e guards, down a corridor c a r p e t e d with sumptuous local rugs and into a doubleheight banquet hall with a triple-glazed glass roof. T h e stars s e e m e d close enough to reach out and capture. And the invisibility.
Kronski squeezed through are you? A fairy, is that it? If eye-rolling were a sport, this creature would be a gold-medal T h e creature sat flanked by t h r e e m o r e guards. She was winner, thought the doctor. Well, perhaps silver medal. Gold cuffed to a plastic baby chair b o r r o w e d from the compound's would surely go to my ex-wife, who's no slacker in the eye-rolling c r e c h e. H e r features w e r e alert and sullen. H e r weapon lay department herself.
He pointed the weapon at a frozen ham h o c k hanging on a chain and pulled the tiny trigger. T h e r e was no k i c k - Kronski addressed the guards. T h e m e n shook their heads. It was a stupid question.
I low could she move? All proceeds according to my plan. All proceeds were picky eaters. S o m e hated animals so m u c h that they according to my plan. I should go and were vegetarians, which limited the m e n u somewhat. But get myself some metal hands. W h a t do you think, gentlemen? T h e y started with a subtle tomato-and-pepper soup in Kronski ignored the n e w guy.
He placed a finger on baby t u r t l e shells. All very tasty, and by n o w the wine was relaxing breath through his n o s e. Everyone listening? This evening couldn't Kronski's s t o m a c h was so c h u r n e d with nerves that he be m o r e important. T h e future of the entire organization could n o t eat a single b i t e , which was m o s t unusual for depends on it. Everything must be totally perfect. He hadn't felt this giddy since his very first banquet take your eyes off the prisoner and do n o t r e m o v e h e r in Austin all those years ago.
No one is to see her until the trial begins. Soon my name will be mentioned I paid five million in diamonds for the privilege of a grand in the same sentence as the Bobby Jo Haggard or Jo Bobby Saggart.
Damon Kronski, the man who This was n o t a rhetorical question, though it t o o k the n e w guy a m o m e n t to realize it.
Two things would m a k e this banquet the greatest ever held. The entree and the trial. Reading can be a great benefit to you in many different ways—such as sharpening your mind, imagination, and writing skills.
