A/N: Wow. I have 30 reviews! Thanks SOOO much, guys! This is my first Fanfiction and I have 30 reviews! Thanks! I do not own the Percy Jackson Series or the Artemis Fowl Series. Oh! I do NOT own the FANTASTIC show named Jeopardy! Question made with common knowledge and the power of Wikipedia. Now on with the show!
XI Artemis
Artemis could not believe he had just gone through a spat with that insolent Annabeth. At least he was in competition against her. Competition and rivalry were to things Artemis loved to cooperate in.
Artemis looked over from the stand he was at and looked over to see a fumed (and definitely enraged) Annabeth. Artemis smiled in satisfaction and glared at her. Before long, it became a full-fledged staring contest. They both lost.
"Children," said Athena, shuffling through a mountain load of papers. "Today, I will be iterating questions. Lord Hermes over here will help judge."
The two children nodded their heads.
"However, there will be no categories to choose from, and each question will be random. Each question is 1 point, and wrong answer is -2 points."
They nodded again.
"Buzz in with these buzzers," suddenly, magic buzzers appeared in their hands. "The answering method from Jeopardy will be used. Understood?"
"Yes, Lady Athena," said Artemis, growing an evil, yet confident smile on his face.
"I, too, agree to the terms," said Annabeth clutching the buzzer while her eyes swirled into an angry storm cloud.
"Very well," said Athena mischievously, she, too, was growing a smile. "Let the games begin!"
A/N: Okay, here's where it gets a little tricky. The questions will be in bold. There will be two rounds. This chapter is one round. Next is another. There will be 15 questions per round. These are also questions made be me to prevent copyrights, etc. Both rounds will be different (possibly). Try to answer some! Ready?

Annabeth buzzed in. "What is the Challenger Deep."
Athena nodded. "Correct."
This machine, created by IBM, was created to play against the greatest champions in Jeopardy.
The two buzzed in quickly, but Artemis buzzed in first. "Who is Watson," said Artemis, smirking at Annabeth, while she glared.
"That is correct."
This famous book series, written by James Patterson, was about kids who were 2% bird, having the ability to fly.
"What is the Maximum Ride Series," said Artemis.
"Correct."
Annabeth made a face at Artemis, but Artemis quickly waved it off.
Originally owned by France, this city is capital to the fourth largest island in the world.
"What is Antananarivo," enunciated Annabeth, while catching a scowl from Artemis.
Athena continued, meaning it was correct. (A/N: Putting "correct" each time is rather boring. Je suis de sole. Sorry!)
Formed in 1957, this British band was made famous for songs such as "Love Me Do" and "Hey Jude".
"Who are the Beatles," said Annabeth, grinning with satisfaction.
This is used to describe the state of matter in which almost all movement begins to cease.
Annabeth buzzed in. "Macroscopic Quantum Phenomena!" she said hurriedly, smiling toward Artemis.
Artemis rolled his eyes.
"Annabeth, that is incorrect," said Athena. Annabeth gasped. Campers who were watching whispered.
Artemis buzzed in. "What is a Bose. Einstein. Condensate." Artemis's grin grew bigger each word, causing Annabeth to slump slightly.
Now known as JILA, this laboratory is one of the leading physical science research institutes in the United States.
"Joint. Institute. for Laboratory. Astrophysics," said Annabeth, mockingly saying each word.
Athena nodded.
This is the term used to describe the Russian Revolution which started autocracies as well as the rise of The Soviet Union.
Artemis and Annabeth clicked their buzzers furiously. However, Artemis buzzed in quicker. "What is the Russian Revolution of 1917."
Athena nodded while giving a look at Annabeth as if to say, "how the hubris going?"
Annabeth dismissed her mother's look.
Made from flammable materials and makeshift items, these grenades helped Finnish soldiers in the Winter War.
Artemis relaxed his grip on the buzzers. He knew he would win. He was Artemis Fowl.
Annabeth buzzed in. "What is a Molotov cocktail."
"Indeed," said Athena, grinning at Artemis, who glared at Annabeth.
The name of this element literally means "lazy one" in Greek. This noble gas's atomic number is 18.
Both running through their Greek vocabulary, Annabeth buzzed in first. Artemis just shrugged, he was going to win no matter what.
"What is Argon," said Annabeth.
Athena nodded, carefully surveying the children.
This is the change in rate of a chemical reaction due to the participation of a substance.
Artemis answered swiftly. "What is Catalysis."
Athena nodded gently and continued.

Artemis replied again. "Who is William Stern."
Athena nodded slightly, eyes still trained on Annabeth.

"Who is Ken Jennings!" exclaimed Annabeth, showing a bright smile. (1)
Athena continued.
This is an education program headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, open for children from the ages of 3-19.
Artemis buzzed in, cleared his throat, and answered. "What is the International Baccalaureate. "
Athena finally spoke. "According to Hermes," she pointed toward him. "The next question is the last, and afterwards, we shall meet 15 minutes after lunch."
The two nodded, vigorously sweating from the concentration.
This man was a blind bard; writing poems and stories of Greek beliefs.
Annabeth and Artemis buzzed in at the exact same time. "Who is Homer."
"Correct," said Athena. "All spectators and contestants may be released to lunch now."
"WOOHOO!" shouted Leo, scrambling toward the lunch pavilion while spilling oil from his tool belt. Leo was not one for trivia.
Athena dismissed the others, but stayed for a minute to talk to the two rivals. "You two are true genii, but never let hubris win." She glared at the two at the word "hubris".
The two nodded hurriedly and went to lunch. Annabeth kept mumbling "only six points, he got eight". Artemis, however, was thinking of revenge…
A/N: HMMM… Tad bit boring? Ha-ha, I was listening to "1 hour of the Jeopardy thinking music!" XD. Anyways, for the (1), I'd like to say something about Ken Jennings! He is my HERO!
