Prologue Percy Jackson was just taking a walk when a manticore attacked him. Sure, attacks happened to him all the time as he was "The Son of Poseidon" and thought to be hero of "The Great Prophecy". But sometimes he felt like he was going to lose it from a lot of pressure. One quick jab from Riptide was all it took to kill the manticore. But unknown to Percy, his act has been recorded. xxx page-break xxx Vikram Kabra was just watching a footage of an attack by a 16 year old boy on a madman. Atleast, it looked like a madman to him. "Hmm", he thought. He would be an ideal Lucian. Vikram smiled. He was going to make that boy a Lucian. By giving him the Lucian serum. Vikram traced that boy. Apparently his name was Percy Jackson. He went over to the address of his apartment. Vikram met the boy's mother, Sally Jackson. He asked her to call her son and had spoken to both of them about Cahills and told them they were descended from Napoleon Bonaparte and a lot other dictators and leaders. However, they were not Lucians. They didn't need to know that. Let them believe they are Lucians. They don't need to know that Vikram was going to make that boy Percy one by giving him the serum. Vikram took the serum out of his coat-pocket. He told them that this would be a ceremony where the boy had to drink a juice and he would be accepted into the Lucians. He nodded, and drank the had diluted the serum so it would give him only power that a descendant of Luke Cahill would have had and not complete power. The boy said he was feeling sleepy after drinking the serum and went to sleep. Vikram informed Sally that Percy would have to undergo 6 months of training and attend the Larving school of Cahir. Vikram had adopted a person into the Lucian family for first time.
