quarter numero UNO!
Meditate on the events of quarter one. How did you do in this class? What did you learn? Which of your academic skills improved? Where are you still struggling? How is the class environment? What can you do to further strengthen the learning community in our classroom? What are your goals for Q2? Basically, how did things go for you and what can you do to improve or to make things more successful for yourself and others?I think i did ok this quarter, but i would like to do better. I learned a lot about MLA and most importantly how to write a better thesis statement. Im still having troubles with it, but ive gotten deeper than my purely plot based thesis. I think the class environment is comfortable. I am ..shy. so i still find it hard to be so open to the class and make presentations. but im ok with it because i do feel that it is a safe place. my goals for quarter 2: simply, cut the procrastination. i post blogs late or last second and my papers are also saved till i have little time. this causes me not to do my best work.
Ending Artemis
By now Minerva has decided to give up on the mission due to much persuasion. But Kong is not happy about this. He wants a demon to get revenge on because of his brother's death. He is so angry in fact that he plans on killing Minerva if she doesnt get him a new demon. Artemis hears his gunshots and plans to save Minerva. So he decides to trade with Kong. Minerva for No.1.
When Kong and Artemis meet Kong has a plan. He will put a bomb on No.1 and detatch the silver bullet sending him into his time and blowing up all the demons around him. But his plan will not work, Artemis had thought ahead, being the genius he is, and took the bullet out sending No.1 flying through time again. But he doesnt make it all the way home. When he stops Holly is there to meet him.
There is a big battle between Kong, Minerva, Butler and Holly. when finally Artemis sends them all back to our time. When they arrive at home the police were ready. The murder that Kong had comitted many years ago was exposed to the police and he was charged for it.
While they were gone Abbot crowned himself the king of the demons.
Holly, Artemis, No.1 and Qwan. Abbot finds out and approaches them with an army not far behind. Artemis accuses Abbot of stealing magic. Proving that magic can be stolen by pointing his finger and shooting sparks. He had "stolen" this magic from the time tunnel. more battling.
Abbot stabs Holly with a sword that is cursed so magic cannot heal her, quickly killing her. Soon Qwan and No.1 are killed as well. Artemis fires some sort of energy from Holly's Neutrino. The blast from the energy went into the past and hit Abbot only moments before he was able to stab holly. He was unconscious from the blast, therefore Holly, Qwan and No.1 were left uninjured.
Now they had five magical beings to reverse the time spell. Qwan, Holly, Artemis, No.1 and Abbot. So they go to the Volcano and as they are trying to reverse the time spell. While trying to reverse the time spell Qweffor comes out of Abbot. Only a little while later when Qweffor calls him Runt they know that Abbot was back. So they got Abbot out of Qweffor's body and put him into a Guinea pig.
Because of all the time travel Artemis now has twin siblings, the demons were taken underground and Minerva had grown to be very beautiful.
artemis fowl. its heatin up.
No.1 is developing more and more warlock traits. One of which is a voice in his head. This secret voice is telling him to take off his silver and go to the volcano so that he can travel time. Silver is like an anchoring device that glues the person/creature to the time that they are in.
At this same time Butler and Artemis are traveling to sicily Italy. they have calculated this is where the next demon will appear. while waiting around for the demon Butler notices a girl that he recognised from when they were in Spain. The girl seemed irrelavant and insignificant then, but since she was now here she must know about demons as well. And then comes Holly Short, LEP official. They were all waiting around for the demon. But they didnt have to wait too long. No. 1 appears right on schedule. quickly he is shot with a silver dart so he is now stuck in our time. the girl who was obviously the brians behind the silver dart. Together they run off and hop on a train.
We soon learn that The girls name is Minerva's Paradizo. We learn all about her and the men that accompany her on her travels. She is with a Frenchman who is her father, a Latin man named Juan Sotow who is their security chief, and aTaiwanese man named Billy Kong, also for security. Kong had a brother named Eric. Billy's real name is Jonah. Eric came back one night after a gang fight and told Jonah that he was fighting demons that could peel off their faces and eat "under-tens" at night. Later, a Gang killed Ericover a girl. But Jonah knew it was erally demons. When Eric was killedJonah moved to Taiwan, south of Taipei where he became a petty thief. One knight he killed a man with a kitchen knife so he moved to Paris and changed his name to Billy Kong.
Minerva questions No.1 and finds that he has even more warlock characteristics. He is able to speak in tongues. We find out that the two things that Abbowt returned to the demon times with (the book and crossbow) were not heroicly stolen from the himans but were traded for the time tunnel calculations with Minerva.
While trying to break into the Paradizo complex Holly is captured. She is now with Billy Kong. Billy asks her about his brother and requests she peels her face. Holly escapes her chains tells him she can peel her whole body and then knocks him unconscious.
Holly and Artemis are on a team against Minerva. So they make a plan. Holly escapes with No.1 and some research papers and Foaly crashes her computer system.
