“Don't hate me forever, Arty," whispered Holly. "I couldn't bear that.”

“Holly, do you trust me?”Holly groaned. “Artemis, don’t ask me that. I just know one of your outrageous plans is coming.”“Do you trust me?”“Yes,” Holly sighed. “I do. More than anyone.”

“Artemis: Holly, how did you find me?Holly: Oh, I saw a huge explosion and wondered: now, who could that be?”

“Of course I saved you," she said. "I couldn't do without you." And because she was happy and flushed with magic, Holly leaned down and kissed Artemis, magic sparking around the contact like tiny fireworks.”

“She can't afford to commit more troops,' Holly whispered. 'The gate is her priority, and she needs to have as many Berserkers watching her back as possible. We are secondary at this point.''That will be her undoing,' Artemis gasped, already suffering under the weight of the flak jacket. 'Artemis Fowl will never be secondary.''I thought you were Artemis Fowl the Second?' said Holly.”

“Quickly, Holly," said Artemis urgently. "Follow those bubbles."Holly opened the throttle. "Now there's an order I never thought I'd hear from you.”

“Holly: Seven and a half hours to save the world. Isn’t there some law that says we get twenty-four?Artemis: I don't think Opal pays much attention to laws.”
