Artemis Fowl: The Time Paradox (pt. 4)

In Loving Memory of Sudhir Sawant. God wanted the best for himself.

When Artemis rescues Holly and himself from Opal she says that Opal has mesmerized the Extinctionists to bring her the lemur which will give her the ability to control time. Holly and Artemis fly to Fowl Manor, but are followed by Koboi. When Artmis Jr. confronts Artemis he is forced to reveal his identity. Holly and Artemis return to the present with the lemur, after getting some help from the People, and Holly has a emotional breakdown when she sees her old captain (now deceased). Artmemis is about to inject the potion into his mother when he finds out that Opal Koboi has possessed his mother and caused her disease (not Artemis).
When Opal explains how this has happened Artemis reveals that he is actually Artemis Jr.. The older Artemis, meanwhile, fights with the real Opal (with Butler's help) and tranquilizes her. Since she has gained so much power, however, she recovers quickly and chases Artemis as he runs away with a decoy lemur. emis takes Jayjay and flies away from the Manor grounds in a plane, luring Opal away. She destroys the plain that Artemis was in, and Artemis is forced to cross a rope bridge and two large boulders. When Opal finally catches him, she realizes that the lemur is fake. Holly arrives at the scene and Artemis shoots the boulder which Opal is standing on and which is revealed to be the shell of a mysterious kraken, that the People were having trouble finding. The Kraken is about to shed its skin (an island) but explodes prematurely when Artemis shoots it. Opal ends up getting buried in the rubble. When the Lower Elements Police (LEP)go to find her, they find she has disappeared. After the lemur is securely in the hands of the People, Artemis visits his recovered mother, and finds that she remembers everything even though they tried to wipe her. Artemis Jr. has his mind wiped and is sent back 8 years in time.
