I got the idea of this story from a different Class of the Titans crossover. That story hasn't been updated for almost 2 years so I though I might as well write my own.
For all those who aren't familiar with the Artemis Fowl Series see the website (just google 'artemis fowl'). For those who are familiar with the story, read on and enjoy!
Disclaimers: I don't own Class of the Titans or Artemis Fowl
Chapter One- The Troubles of Being a Teen
Fowl Manor, Dublin
The old halls of Fowl Manor were totally quiet. The paintings of the past Fowls glared spookily. The light of the full moon provided the only light on the spiralling stairs, giving the room an eerie bluish glow. It was almost midnight, and everyone was asleep.
"ARTEMIS! UP STAIRS, NOW!"
Ok, most normal people were asleep. But the Fowls weren't ordinary people. Even though they had long retired from their criminal life they were still legends in the underworld. Especially a certain Artemis Fowl the Second.
Artemis Fowl was a genius. He had designed countless inventions, had an IQ of over 250 and robbed hundreds of banks of their jewels. He had found the Fairy People, a collection of sub- terrain species unknown to humans. But he had long since lost contact with their underground world.
The reason for this was simply that his parents wanted their 'Arty' to be a normal teenager. So it was good-bye his normal attire of a suit, fairies, inventions, criminal activities and hello school, friends and jeans. Yes Artemis Fowl criminal mastermind wore jeans, much to his utter horror. But his father insisted, and Artemis had no choice but to wear them.
Possibly the worst part of being a normal teen was that a normal teen did not need a bodyguard. Separation from Butler was perhaps the worst thing of all. Artemis had never not been in the immediate sight of Butler ever since he was born. The two had become more than guard and client. Butler was the closest thing Artemis had to a friend, and Artemis was like a son to Butler. They had been through everything together, from finding lost civilisations to escaping time stops. But they didn't do that anymore. Artemis was being a normal teen, and Butler was training for high altitudes at Mt Everest.
Back to Fowl Manor. It was Artemis Fowl the First that was yelling for his son to come up. You're probably wondering why someone would be shouting for his or her son at the middle of the night when he was probably asleep. Well, let's rewind ten minutes…

Artemis Fowl the First was sleeping peacefully, oblivious to the fact that he was the target of a high tech practical joke. The joke- a remote controlled toy car whizzing down the hall and crashing into the door, sounding like someone knocking at the door. Artemis was instantly awake and rushed to the door. He opened it to find no one. He shrugged it off and blamed it on imagination. Yawning, he went back to bed.
Five minutes later the same knocking sound awoke him for the second time.
Now most people would have gotten up, opened the door and gone back to bed after finding nothing. But Artemis was smart. He crept over to the door and stood there for a minute. Sue enough, the knocking was heard. He threw open the door and grabbed the toy. Down stairs, he heard a door quickly close. There was only one person whose bedroom was on the ground floor…
Back to before. Knowing that he had been caught, Artemis the second trudged up the stairs. Father could never take a joke. It was just a bit of fun, mainly because he was bored. His intelligent mind wasn't meant to be cooped up like this. He needed to have an invention or a plan to be working on.
He reached his father who was waiting for him at the top of the stairs, and boy he didn't look happy. Artemis Fowl the First was known world wide for his frown and 'right-that's-it-I'm-really-not-very-happy-today' face.
"Uh, hi Dad," Artemis the Second said, trying to sound as normal teenage as he could. "What's up?"
0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0
The next day was a quiet as the night before. Artemis the first went out for the day to get away from his troublemaking son. Artemis the second however, was grounded.
Artemis paced up and down his bedroom trying to think of something to entertain himself. If he had his phone he could call his old friend and see how the training was going, but his phone had been confiscated. He would write an essay on Quantum Physics, but his laptop had also been locked up. Normally he would have picked the lock to the storeroom in seconds but his lock picking tools had also been locked up.
Of course a locked door and no tools wouldn't keep Artemis Fowl out a room. He was smart enough to figure out almost any problem he was faced with. After all, he cracked the fairy code in seven hours straight. But for once in his life Artemis was content with staying in his room. He actually wanted to be a normal teen, or as normal as a person with an IQ of 250+ could be.
Later that day, his father returned from Dublin, the city that Fowl Manor was set on the outskirts of. Artemis was allowed to have his technology back, as long as he didn't use it against any member of the family or staff. Like he would anyway.
Artemis decided it was time to get out of being a normal teen. It was boring being normal. A genius like himself could never be normal anyway. It was time to see how an old friend was, one that he hadn't seen for almost five years. The person he wished to see was one of the very few people he could trust to keep his secrets safe from his father. So trustworthy that he knew about the fairy people. No, it wasn't Butler. His friend was someone much younger, his age in fact.

New Olympia High, New Olympia
"Ok Jay, in your own time!"
Jay stood facing Theresa with a sword in his hand and a look of horror on his face. Ares had partnered him with Theresa and he was supposed to attack her while she had no weapon.
"And how is this going to help us beat Cronus?" Jay asked Ares, who was standing at the wall of the gym along with the rest of the team. They were all trying their best not to laugh. Not at Theresa who looked helpless against their leader. They were laughing at Jay, who had no chance against Theresa's ability, even with no weapon.
"It will be helping you to learn how to fight someone who has a large advantage against you," said Ares. "Like now. Jay has a clear advantage over Theresa, who won't be using magic, ok Theresa?" She nodded. "Ok then. Attack!"
Jay turned to face Theresa. He really didn't want to attack her with him having an advantage. She would look so bad in front of the team for losing and it would be his fault. Which would not be a good move against one of the team. Argh, being a leader was frustrating!
He half-heartedly swung his sword at Theresa. Laughing, she side stepped around him and punched his shoulder. "Come on Jay," she said. "Attack me!"
Jay lunged at Theresa again. She grabbed his out-stretched arm and kicked his sword out of his hand. Jay realised that Theresa wasn't going to be the one humiliated during training- he was.
He raised his clenched fists into a defence position and punched Theresa, who blocked it. She delivered bone-breaking turning kick at him. Jay stepped out of the way and tried to punch his team-mate. All thoughts of mercy were out of his head. He was going to beat her. He had to.
Five minutes later there was still no victor. Jay was certainly more bruised than Theresa, who only had taken a few blows. She wasn't just a black belt for kicks, excuse the pun. She could of easily beaten Jay after the first punches, but she enjoyed making him look bad.
Theresa decided Jay had suffered enough. Grabbing his leg after a kick, she flipped him over and pinned him down. "Victory is mine!" She exclaimed. The rest of the team and Ares came over. Herry helped an embarrassed Jay to him feet.
"Nice one," he mumbled. The rest of the team, including Theresa and Ares, broke into laughter.
The rest of the team moved away to their next classes, except for Theresa and Jay who were assigned clean-up duty by Ares. "What's wrong Jay?" Asked Theresa as she helped him pack up the weapons. "Don't like losing? Well get used to it when I'm your partner. I don't lose."
"It's just that-"
But what Jay was about to say was cut short by Hermes, who burst into the gym. "Jay," he said. "There's a boy outside who needs to talk to you. He said it was urgent, and to give you this." He handed Jay a small sheet of paper with writing on it. Theresa glanced over Jay's shoulder at the writing. "Aurum potestas est? What does that mean?" She asked.
Jay looked at the paper and back at Theresa. "It's Latin," he explained. "It means 'gold is power'. It's the Irish Fowl family motto, and there's only one Fowl that knows and would want to contact me.

What do you guys think? It took me about an hour to write and I loved every minute of it! The Artemis Fowl Series and Class of the Titans is a really good cross over, because they both have that 'it could actually be real' feel to them. I'm not sure what I'm going to do in the next chapter, but I can tell you these bits of info that will happen during the series:
- There will be rivalry between Odie and Artemis for top nerd
- Artemis will crush on Theresa, and Jay won't be a happy-chappie about that
- Some of Jay's past will be revieled
- Artemis will join the team for a short time and will be taught by Artemis (only because he is named after the goddess)
- Butler, Holly Short, Mulch Diggums or any other fairy will not appear in the series
That's all the info for now. If you have any ideas for the series, please tell me! I will take on board any ideas or comments you guys give me. Thanks everyone, and don't forget to review!!
