Author's Notes: My very first Artemis Fowl fanfic. I want to read the series, but I can't find them. :'( So, if there is anything wrong or Artemis is too OOC, don't be afraid to let me know. Thank you! By the way, it goes from 'walked' to 'walks' to separate the time periods. So, she introduces the story when she first met Artemis then goes to present.

Prologue: Artemis and Apollo

Apollo Sow is different from other boys and girls at her school. Her cropped short hair is a strange faded orange and her eyes are a stormy gray, she's shorter and scrawnier than most people with small hands and feet, her skin is a sickly white, and her voice is normally quiet. She's also not normal, meaning she can defy gravity based on her feelings. But to him, she was beautiful with her strange hair and eye color, her body built, her porcelain white skin, and her sweet voice. And he didn't mind if she could defy gravity because he knew she would always be there, waiting and standing in mid-air for him.

She's a bit slow, but when she pushes herself, she's actually very intelligent. She's stubborn, hot-headed, reckless, but she's loyal, kind, and brave. She'd never leave someone behind, she would always push herself to help someone in need, and she would literally give an arm up if it means to save her loved ones. She was a human complexity, and he couldn't figure out what drew himself to her.

Artemis Fowl couldn't solve the puzzle named Apollo Sow.

But as he was walking away, he couldn't seem to turn around to the familiar, sweet voice screaming his name desperately.

She ran as fast as her thin legs could carry her to spite the burning in her lungs and the led-like feeling weighing on her body. Artemis was being taken, taken away from her.

"ARTEMIS!" She screamed, her voice echoing painfully, "ARTEMIS! NO, NO, NO! ARTEMIS! ARTEMIS! ARTEMIS!"

Her eyes started to water, and her mouth felt dry. Her throat was raw, and her dirtied cheeks were being cleansed by her hot tears. Her blurred eyes tried to stay on the figure she loved, but second-by-second, he slowly disappeared. Her knees buckled beneath her, and she felt her heart wither. Holly chased him further until her figure too disappeared, but Butler remained behind, helping her stand.

"He's not gone, Apollo," he murmured. "We can still reach him."

"You guys can, but I can't. H-he doesn't even love me anymore," she sobbed pitifully. "It's all my fault."

Butler stared at her before he too chased after Artemis. She was alone again. She sobbed until something tickled her wrist. She looked, and her heart throbbed at the sight of the dark blue string bracelet Artemis gave her as a sign of his promise to always return to her. Something seemed to burn inside her, and she stood up, stormy gray eyes glowing brightly with determination.

Artemis has always been her Knight, and she's always been his Damsel in Distress.

But with the knowledge him and his friends are in danger, she won't sit around anymore. She'll go save him and become his Knight and he'll become her Damsel in Distress. She'll be the first princess to meet him halfway.
