Disclaimer: I am not Eoin Colfer. Therefore I do not own the Artemis Fowl series. He does. No matter how much I love authors, sometimes they just plain suck! Because they managed to create a story I am now obsessed. Ugh!

Artemis Fowl was a boy genius. A mud boy. A boy. He was not a father. But somehow he managed to become one to two little boys. No, not that way. He became a father to his twin brothers Myles and Beckett when Angeline and Artemis Fowl Senior had died in a car crash. Legally, Artemis was an adult, which is why he was given his twin brothers to raise. Physically, he looked no more than fifteen. And at the moment, that was just how he felt.

Artemis sat in his study, wondering how he was going to work through this problem. That's right Artemis. Just think of this as a problem. There is always and answer to every problem. He told himself but as he sat in his study and tried to figure out how he was going to run the Fowl empire, pay all his employees, take care of Myles and Beckett, deal with the fairy people, and his complex. He had finally admitted to Holly that he did have feelings for her, and she had not answered him. She just walked out and said that she would have an answer for him the next day. Well it was a week later and Artemis had received no contact from Holly and he now believed that this was the end of their friendship.

It had been good while it lasted, and as Artemis sat there, he thought about what he would do if this had been him a year ago. He would have stood up and called Holly, been brave or just ignored her until she talked to him. However that was before he lost his parents, and before he went insane, before he had to worry.

Artemis stood up from his desk to go check on the twins who had been crying constantly. As he walked downstairs to the playroom he saw Butler, Juliet, Foaly, Mulch, and Holly. They were talking and Artemis got a odd feeling that he wasn't supposed to hear this conversation. So he crept closer to the kitchen doorway.

"I don't think he is stable to take care of the twins, Dom." Juliet said and Artemis gasped. He had always trusted Juliet like a sister.

"I know Juliet." came Butler's gruff reply. " He is weak and if something or someone attempted to hurt him or the twins, he couldn't protect them. I hate to say it, but I know it must be said. He would never socialize with them either, he was never one to pay much attention to children." Artemis always thought of Butler as a sort of father like figure to him and found it insulting that no one thought he was capable of protecting himself or anyone else.

Mumbled reply's of agreement came from the members who sat at the kitchen island.

"At the moment, I don't even know if Art is strong enough to take care of himself, much less two children. He was never a very strong person. He was a load to carry around during our adventures." Foaly said as he readjusted his tin-foil alien protecting cap.

Artemis moved backwards, eyes wide with horror and realization. Nobody cared about him. They could go on without him. They just thought he was some extra weight to carry around and that he was never capable of taking care of himself. As he was moving backwards, Artemis knocked over a priceless vase and the pottery shattered to the floor with a sickening crack, letting everyone in the kitchen know that he was there.

Artemis began running down the hall and hid in a secret passage he had used many years ago. He hid there while Butler, Juliet,Mulch and Holly ran down the hallway, looking for signs of an attack. Foaly was attempting to look up, but was to entranced by a apple sitting on the table. Artemis sprinted to his room, and even though he was not fast, he was in his study and sat down on the chair breathlessly. His friends thought he was weak. Everyone he truly cared about thought he was weak and couldn't take care of himself.

I'll show them. Artemis thought and began to pack his bags and ran to get the twins.

When Juliet Butler got home from the grocery store, she was greeted by a silent house. The twins weren't crying, nor was Artemis throwing things in an attempt to figure out a problem that she knew he never would.

So she was only slightly worried, and as she brought in the grocery's to the Fowl mansion kitchen, she found a note. Juliet set down the bags with ease, accidentally knocking out a bowl of caviar she was going to make so Artemis would feel better.

She picked up the sealed caviar can and placed it on the counter so she could read the note. All of her instincts told her to go look for Artemis, but she found that the note had pulled her in and she was already reading it. She had to re-read it nineteen times in exactly the next five minutes and three seconds. She counted.

She ran around the house nine separate times, looking at every single square inch or the Fowl Manor. Not a soul was there. The playroom was deserted, and a good amount of the Fowl boy's belongings were vacant from their usually drawers. Later, Juliet would find that 10,000 dollars had been extracted from Artemis's private bank account and that a plane had been taken to Tokyo with a boy who looked exactly like Artemis and the twins on it.

But at that moment, Juliet took out her phone with trembling fingers ( which had a beautiful coat of pink nail polish I may add) and dialed a number.

"Hello Juliet. Why would you be calling at this Un -Godly hour? I am in the dojo and it is late. Shouldn't you be helping Artemis with the..." However Butler was not allowed to finish because Juliet breathed the words as follows.

"Artemis ran away."

"What?!" Butler screeched and then dropped the phone and ran to the car.

He got several speeding tickets later.

Artemis Fowl was reported a missing person, and so were Beckett and Myles. He could not be charged with kidnapping since he was guardian of the twins. Butler moved away and gave up hope after five years of searching for a criminal master mind who could hide almost anywhere if he wanted to.

Juliet attempted to fight a little longer, but soon gave up along with her brother.

The people, especially Holly, tried for years, but some how the beloved mud boy had gotten away. Foaly couldn't find him, and neither could any other of the LEP techies. Holly Short was the only one who never gave up hope on the mud boy- mud man now. Artemis would be twenty- five now, legally, but he would look only twenty-two. Holly tried for years to get back the mud boy, but found that when Artemis Fowl junior didn't want to be found, he didn't want to be found and stayed hidden. It must have been had for him, and none of the searchers knew exactly why the Fowl boy had run away, so it aggravated them more.

Holly finally set down her hopes of finding Artemis and was going to shut off the last computer monitor, when a blinking red light flashed across the screen.

It read one name, and one location.

Remis Loan Fuior, Jamestown Pennsylvania.

Artemis Fowl Junior.

Some letters were missing but that was just fine. Instantly Holly turned on all the computers and placed phone calls to everyone who had been at Fowl Manor when Artemis Fowl had gone missing.

I finally found you Arty!

Her enthusiasm would be short lived.

The first time Artemis Fowl met Penelope Freewater was when he was going to college. He had run away from home because of reasons he did not like to talk about. So he had to get a job and the one way to get that job without drawing attention to himself was to go to college. He and the twins lived in a apartment, not the luxury Artemis wanted, but would have to do if he wanted to stay hidden. So he had moved to the sleepy little town of Jamestown in Pennsylvania.

He worked part time as a mechanic after taking a sudden interest in cars after talking to one of his few friends who was a mechanic in the town and offered him a job. He needed to pay for the twins so he took it, learning how to fix a car, and worked at a library part time. This was how he managed to keep the twins in school and pay for his own college. This was not what Artemis had usually done, nor did he like it, but it kept him away from everyone that was searching for him, and payed the bills. Sometimes if he had to, he would use the bank account money he had taken from his safe and sell some jewelry. He had renamed himself with an alias and proved new names for Beckett and Myles, but hoped they would not remember their real names.

He had become rock cold, always determined to prove himself, at least until he met Penelope.

She was beautiful. Artemis was lucky to have her, and was glad he did. He still remembered the first day they had met, with her walking into the classroom that Artemis had been in that very day.

Flashback..

Artemis sat at one of the desks that sat in a half circle facing the teacher. It was an arena like room, with the teacher being lower on the ground, and the students high up in rising steps like stands. A door was placed by the teacher and a door was placed at the top were Artemis sat in the "back" of the room. This was a history class, for advanced pupils, and Artemis had easily qualified for the part. He had said that he was eighteen when three years had passed from when he ran away at fifteen (A/N: He lied and said he was eighteen three years after he ran away). So when the girl walked in late to class, Artemis was happy for a distraction.

The girl appeared at the bottom of the odd half circle classroom and handed the teacher, Mr. Griffin, a blue slip stating why she was late and that she was excused. A few wolf whistles were let out and Artemis ignored his classmates whistles of how pretty the girl was.

"Ah, Penelope You can take a seat next to Mr. Fuior, up in the back." A few boys let out groans of disappointment, but Artemis continued to look down at his notes. The girl walked up the steps to the fifth row were Artemis sat alone.

"Hi, whats your name?" Questioned Penelope, and it was then that Artemis looked up to see the angel before him.

She had long brown-blonde hair that was tied up in a ponytail that guided the hanging hair down to mid back. The girl was tall, and had eyes that refused to make a decision on whether or not to be blue, green, or brown. So Artemis decided to call them a hazel color. She was wearing skinny jeans, a t-shirt and a tan knitted sweater that reached mid thigh. She was a modest girl, Artemis realized, but like most people, he couldn't see what she was really. Quickly jumping back into reality, Artemis composed himself and held out a hand.

"Remis. Remis Fuior. It is a pleasure to meet you..." He trailed off not knowing what to call the girl. She laughed and took a seat in the chair next to Artemis and Artemis nearly fainted from hearing her laugh. It was what he imagined heaven to feel like.

"Penelope Freewater. Just call me Penny." And so he did. They became close friends, and she had bought an apartment just one floor under his as it turned out. They both tried to deny feelings that they had for each other. They had almost all their classes together and were stuck in the same boat with no parents and younger siblings to take care of. Penny had two, Lina and Cameron who were sisters who closely resembled their elder, and were only one year apart, Lina was Beckett and Myles's age, Cameron only a year younger. Eventually, when the two friends admitted they liked each other, they went out for a year before finally Artemis asked for Penelope's hand in marriage.

When they both said "I do." at a church with only their closest friends, they seemed like the happiest people in the world. Penny showed Artemis that he didn't need to care about what other people thought and how to make friends. Artemis taught her how to crunch numbers and helped her in math. She was an artist, he a mechanic and would eventually get a fully time job as a teacher when he was twenty one, after graduating a year earlier than the rest of his classmates.
Both of the couple taught each other new things and lived in a small condo in the town, and raised their siblings like they were their own children.

I can live like this. Artemis thought as he watched his wife put their siblings to bed.

However, Artemis didn't care that he had left behind so many people, he just lead on life. Little did he know that those same people were still as persistent as they had always been and would be entering his life very, very soon.
