Odysseus Fowl

Summary: I will try to explain. Basically the Artemis Fowl Version of the Greek Odyssey featuring new characters.

I have rewrote teh first chapter into two so you'll have to reread this and the next one to make any sense.

Domovoi Butler sat on the roof of Fowl manor as he had done many times since his official retirement. The most dangerous body guard in the world was suffering from a dilemma. In his many years of service he had made many enemies. He never minded it because of his skills. However now he had grown weaker, the perfect time for someone to get revenge. He didn't screw up, it wasn't a mistake. Butler refused to think of the past year as a mistake but felt a sliver of regret, not for him but for his beloved Nike.

Nike was the one woman who Butler had fallen in love with. Butler first met her in his dream situation. A damsel in distress it seemed but a one woman fighting machine was more like it.

It was in a back alley which Butler was walking by. Nike was backed up to a wall by 10 men. Butler had seen men like that before. They were the men who Butler hated most. Butler knew their intentions but then he noticed her face. It was of sheer confidence and fierceness. The men charged, Butler charged, she charged. It was over in a matter of seconds. She punched the first one in the throat, side kicked the second in the chest and brought her leg up and around for a spinning kick, it went right over the falling second attacker and smashed into the third thugs head, knocking him against a brick wall. She landed on all fours and lunged forward. She flipped over one of her foes and grabbed his shoulders. In a clean motion she continued to flip and flung the guy though the air, crashing into two of his buddies and a brick wall. 6 down before Butler was within 20 yards.

The last few were morons and swarmed at her. She laughed. "4 of you verses one little me?" she mocked. "Please don't hurt me. I'm just a defenseless woman." She commented as they ran at her from all four sides. She snapped her arms out at her sides and grabbed the two perverts running at her sides. She placed one foot forward and to the side. She quickly spun around swung the two guys like clubs into their buddies before releasing them. There was a few sickening cracks as ribs, arms and legs broke. "Oh wait, I lied." This happened all so fast that butler had forgot to stop running. She saw him out of the corner of her eye and turned. She ran at him and ducked down a little bit. She was only 6 foot and not as big as butler but she knew how to fight. She was inches away from Butler, who tried to stop but she thrust upwards with her shoulder and into Butler's stomach. The next was so quick. Butler flipped over onto the ground somehow and the girl was standing over him, looking down concerned.

"I'm so sorry mister, I thought you were one of them." she stated as she helped Butler up. "But your eyes told me otherwise. You were trying to help me." She explained as Butler brushed himself off.

Butler had to look down at her and even through he had just been bested by a girl he was smiling. "No problem ma'am." Butler said. He quickly looked her over. She looked like a normal civilian. She had short black hair with long bangs. She wore a Black shirt with skinny jeans and sneakers, Nikes to be exact. Also her figure was impressive. She could have been a super model and was skinny but not too skinny and had toned muscles.

"Hey, want to get a bit to eat? It's my treat big guy." She smiled and playfully punched him on the shoulder. It hurt. Her playful punches were hard but butler was used to it.

Butler thought about it. He had a few hours off to get a new suit but he wanted to be with her more then getting a suit. "Sure. I can spare a few minutes but I pay for it." Butler stated. He was now a gentlemen and he never let girls buy him lunch, not that any ever wanted to.

She nodded. "Hey I don't mind a free meal." She commented.

Butler soon found out that she was a former member of many black ops groups and was retired. A few minutes turned into a few hours. Those few hours turned into meeting each other on random days of the week at random times and Butler going into the meeting places through the back doors and disabling security footage. It went on for a year before she wanted him to live with her. She knew of his job but didn't mind. When Butler said that it would just endanger her she claimed that it would be worth it. So they came to an agreement she would live at the Fowl manor with Butler since he could protect her more easily there.

But now Butler was rethinking his choice. He was worried for her and the result of their relationship. Artemis suddenly appeared behind Butler. "You seem troubled. It's Nike isn't it?" The 18 year old asked. Butler merely sighed.

"She's pregnant isn't she?" Artemis asked. Most people would be surprised. She wasn't even showing yet but Butler knew Artemis.

"Yes." Butler responded. The bodyguard was over whelmed with joy and grim so no emotion came out.

Artemis was one of the few people who knew why Butler was like this without having to ask. "Nike wants to keep the baby and raise it together but it's too dangerous and she knows that. Especially with Thor still alive. If he was dead I would feel no worry for the protection of Nike or our kid but...alas it is not that way." Butler explained.

Artemis nodded. He always regretted using Butler as a human shield and he knew that he it was his entire fault. "Butler, it is my fault that Thor is after you." Artemis admitted as he hung his head.

"Don't blame yourself Artemis. It was my choice to help the People." Butler replied, no blame in his voice.

Artemis sighed. "I baited you. I reverted back to my old self and tricked you. I have the right to blame myself. As you have the right to blame me." Artemis admitted, still looking down at his feet.

A large shadow covered Artemis as Butler stood up in front of him. He put one hand on Artemis's shoulder. Artemis looked up. "Artemis, you may be able to trick others but not me. I knew it was a trick but I decided to follow your plan before you tried to 'Trick" me." Butler stated. "The People have saved my life, your father's life and your mother's life. The least I could do was to prevent genocide or at least derail it." Butler said.

Artemis recalled Butler's last mission. It happened at a bad time and returned at an even worse time. "Sometimes the best thing to do for someone you care about is not to push them away but put them on their best path." Artemis explained. "I'm sorry Butler; until Thor is dead you can never be called Dad." Artemis frowned but Butler noticed a look he had seen before, a deceiving plan.

A few minutes later Butler knocked on Nike's door. They shared a room but he felt like knocking today. "Come in Dom. I know it's you." Nike shouted through the door and Butler slowly opened the door and walked in, closing it behind him.

He looked around their room. Before Nike his room was blank, empty without any sign that he lived there. Now it was obvious. Nike had moved in new furniture and put up pictures. The room was larger and had a California king sized bed with a canopy around it. Nike was on the bed, lying on her belly, looking though a large book. Butler just stood there, quickly rethinking every thing. Could he really give this all up? Nike noticed he wasn't moving without looking up from the book. "Come over here; is there something you want to talk about?" Nike asked as she put the book down and looked up her boyfriend.

Butler slowly walked over to the bed but stopped in front of it. Nike looked up, slightly confused. Butler didn't hesitate as he got down on one knee but was shaking badly. Nike was an expertly trained soldier but not in this situation. She stared, a mixture of shock, surprise and joy. Butler fumbled around in his hands and produced a small black box. "Nike, will you marry me?" Butler asked as he opened it. Next thing he knew Nike lunged on him. He fell backwards as she hugged him. "So is that a yes?" Butler asked with a Grin.
