1AN: Once again, this is a fanfic to keep the pitchforks away from me because of Bite Me, Just Not Now. Anyways, I have nothing against Minerva but her and Artemis have an extremely big fight in this chapter and they never love each other again. So it works out kinda for the Minerva haters & lovers. Lovers, you shall soon find out why this may appeal to you. DISCLAIMER: I WISH I OWNED ARTEMIS FOWL BUT I DON'T. EVERYTHING NOT IN THE BOOKS IS MINE!

Prologue

"NO!" Minerva yelled to Artemis in her fury. Their very first fight... it's been 6 years and this is their first fight? "Minerva, how could you? I'm smart enough to figure it out. Take her and go if you wish!" Artemis yelled in fury.

Minerva sourly stormed out of Fowl Manor but not before giving Artemis one last glare before rushing into the rain, clutching a baby girl to her side.

Artemis hid his anger and looked toward another woman, old rags clutching her skin as if making their last attempt to keep her warm. "He is yours now, take care of him," the woman muttered before thrusting a baby into his arms and rushing out the door but taking the opposite direction as Minerva. Artemis looked down at his child. "Apollo," he whispered, "trust your gut and stay away from that girl. She is NOT your sister." Artemis muttered the last part, trying to confirm what he'd know all along to himself and his child.

Meanwhile, in the middle of the woods near Fowl Manor, Minerva was huddled at the base of a large oak tree. "Melidae," she whispered to the baby girl before her, gently touching the delicate tip of the baby girl's nose. "Never speak to that boy, he shall be nothing but trouble."

And so it came to be that the two children never knew that their parents had ever found love and they never thought there was hope for themselves. That is, until 17 years later...

AN: So how do you like it? Sing-song voice I've gotta quiz for you! What do the two children's names mean and how are they relevant to Artemis and Minerva's names besides the fact that they begin with the same letters. (I just noticed that now!) Review please and pressure me to write another chapter or you may not find out how they meet! Sorry it's short! I needed a break from twilight for a bit and I've had this idea for awile.
