The Moon was dim in the sky and darkness threatened to swallow it whole. It is a quiet night on the island of Delos, only two ancient immortals were all that conversed during the twilight hours.
"My time grows near Aunt, we must find someone to hold my power so I may bind myself to the mortal realm," hurriedly exclaimed the pulsating immortal of the pair.
"Oh, dear niece, why can't you just accept your fate in the realm of the faded with your brother," trudged out the older titan.
"So you finally show your true colors and turn your back on me when I need you most, Rhea? Fine, I'll find a successor whether they want it or not," she said then teleported away.
"Fates have mercy on her."

"ARGH," Percy seemed to be frozen in time as his father was pounced upon by the largest wolf he had ever saw. It was pitch black and had red eyes that thirsted for blood. "Perseus, RUN!" was the last words he ever heard from his father before the wolf chomped down on his neck. Just like that Percy, at the tender age of 7, was an orphan.
"Grrr," came the deep growl from the hound which made Percy snap back into reality. He turned and ran as fast as his little legs would carry him. As he ran he could hear the growls behind him growing nearer and nearer to him. Next thing he knows Percy trips over a fallen tree branch and closes his eyes. Accepting this cruel fate he thought was given to him. Oh how wrong could he be.
"DIE!" screamed the almost angelic voice of a women glowing silver. The way the light would dim then sharply brighten reminded young Perseus of a dying supernova. The glowing lady then sent out a wave of silver energy that turned the hound into a pile of golden dust.
"Who are-," Percy tried but was interrupted by the lady.
"Shh, I sense godly blood in you. Not my first choice, but your mortal body will hopefully not burn up from this." The women then began to chant in an ancient language and Percy could only register one thing. Pain. It started as a light burning in his right arm that quickly overwhelmed him and he slipped into the peaceful abyss of sleep.
