The start of something strange
Listen I didn't want to be involved in all of this.
Granted I would have anyway but still not this soon. If your reading this because you think this is going to be the same story you originally read then my advice to you is to just leave. This isn't going to be the same story the other guy wrote, of course when I say that it doesn't mean it hasn't happened in another dimension. Yes I said another dimension. You see there are many worlds with many choices and different outcomes of what happened. You've heard one already but know it's time for you to hear mine.
My name is Percy Jackson (but you already knew that).
This all started when I was five years old, I was with my mother, Sally Jackson the world best mom in the world. I always felt safe around her and I knew she wound do anything to keep me safe no matter how dangerous it is. She never let me go to school because it would be too dangerous for me if I did, but enough about this you want to know what I meant about the different dimension thing right?
Well as I said before it started when I was five-no actually when I was two. I started having visions of things that have yet to happen yet. I would tell my mom the whole thing and she would just tell me it was all just a dream. I really wanted to believe her but some part of me just couldn't. It kept happening even as I grew older but when I turned five that's when my world ended.
It was August 18 on my fifth birthday, my mom wanted to get me a cake for my birthday but I didn't want her to go because of a dream I had the night before. I saw her in a car crash and she was going to be asleep for a long time. However, she insisted on going and promises she'll be back no longer than an hour. So I stayed and waited for her, I started drawing other dreams I had as I waited. An hour later I heard the door bell ring and I rushed to open it and see my mom, except it wasn't her.
It was two police officers standing there and not looking happy. I asked them what they were doing here and they just frowned and asked me if I was Percy Jackson. When I told them I was they asked me to come with them and that's when I knew something bad happened. I went with them to the hospital where I was told that my mom was on her way back from the store when a drunk driver hit her. When we actually made it to the hospital they took me to my mom. When I saw her my heart broke, she looked so lifeless. The doctors told me she had a fifty, fifty chance on making it and I didn't know what to do.
The doctors asked me if she had any family I could stay with but I didn't know anyone because my grandparents were dead and I didn't know my father. So the left me with my mom to go decide what to do with me, as I waited I felt someone watching me so I turned around to see a woman standing there.
"W-who are you?" I asked her and all she did was smiled at me.
"I'm known by many names young hero, but you may call me Fate" she said smiling and I turned completely and looked at her.
"What are you doing in here?" I asked and she came closer to me,
"I have come to take you to your father, of course" she said and I was shocked.
"M-my father, but I thought he was lost at sea" I said and she shook her head.
"No my young hero your mother had to tell you that because the Gods cannot spend time with their children" she said and I was shocked.
"God-my father is a God?" I asked and she nodded,
"Yes, but not just any God young one, your father is Poseidon God of the sea" she said and I was completely shocked.
"But why would you take me to him, if the Gods aren't allowed to spend time with their children" I asked and she smiled.
"Because your destiny lies with the God, they are to prepare you for your destiny" she said and that caught my attention.
"You mean my dreams or visions?" I asked her and she nodded,
"Yes but first we need to stop somewhere" she said and I looked down and then my mom.
"But…what about my mom?" I asked and she smiled sadly.
"I'm afraid there's nothing you can do for her now, she must rest and if she wishes to then she will make it" she told me and I couldn't help but cry and look at her one last time. I kissed her on the forehead,
"I'll visit when I can mom, I promise" I said and I walked towards fate.
"Alright I'm read, but what about those police men?" I asked her and she smiled,
"Do not worry I've already handled it" she said and I nodded and we left.
The next thing I knew we were in some kind of cabin, the next thing I knew we were surrounded my wolves. I hide behind Fate as she was staring straight at the bigger wolf.
"Hello Lupa it nice to see you" Fate said as the wolf nodded.
'Always a pleasure Atropos, but tell me what brings you her?' Lupa the wolf asked and all Fate did was smiled.
"I wish to speck with the boy Hera gave you three years ago" she said and Lupa looked confused but nodded and left. The next thing I knew I saw Lupa come back with a boy around my age, he had blond hair, and blue eyes he also had a small scar on his upper lip.
"Percy, this is Jason Grace the son of Jupiter the roman aspect of Zeus" Fate said and pushed me closer to him as Lupa did the same for Jason.
"Jason this Is Percy Jackson son of Poseidon the Greek aspect of Neptune" Fate introduced me. We shook hands.
"It's a pleasure to meet you Percy" Jason said and I nodded,
"Likewise Jason" I said and smiled.
Fate told me to stay with Jason while she went to go talk with Lupa. As Jason and I started talking I saw that we had a lot in common. Jason told me that his mother gave him up and now he was training with Lupa to prepare him for his journey to camp Jupiter. He also told me he had an older sister named Thalia Grace, he missed her and he wished he could see her again but Lupa told him he couldn't for a long time.
I then told him about my mom and how this all started I even told him about my visions and how I knew about the accident and how much I wished I had stopped her. After our talk Lupa and Fate came back,
"We have reached an agreement" Fate said.
'Yes during winter seasons you two will meet with two others' Lupa said and we smiled and looked at each other before back at them.
"But since its still summer we must leave for now Perseus" Fate said and I nodded.
"I guess I'll see you during the winter Jason" I said and he nodded.
"Yep see you later Percy" he said and we walked off.
The next thing I knew we were in front of the Empire state building and Fate took a key from the door men and we went to the six hundred floor (I know I didn't know it had one either). Once up she took me to a palace even though I was kind of busy looking at the scenery we were passing by. When we finally made it to the palace I was at double awed it was really a pretty place. When we finally made it into the throne room I was amazed that the gods were actually that tall, when we walked in they all turned to us and I hid behind fate.
"Atropos? What brings you to Olympus?" the man in the center asked.
"Lord Zeus I have come here to deliver a boy to his father" she said and they were confused until she pushed me forward and they were all looking at me and I didn't like it. I looked up at all of them and only one looked surprised to see me.
"Yes Poseidon this is Percy Jackson, your son" she said and all the other glared at him especial Zeus.
"You broke the oath!" Zeus yelled and Poseidon rolled his eyes.
"Oh please brother you broke it first so don't you dare go there" Poseidon said.
"He has a point dear, and don't try to ague if it's about despising your children then I'm all for it" A woman next to Zeus said and I guess it was Hera. Zeus just signed and sat back down,
"Anyway why would you bring him here if you knew we would argue about it" A woman with gray eyes asked.
"Because my sisters and I reached in agreement" she said and that confused everyone even me.
"As you very well know when we sense someone with true potential we give them the gift of sight" she said and everyone including me was surprise.
"Wait my visions they always told me things that haven't happened yet" I said and she nodded.
"Yes Perseus, from the moment you were born we gave you the gift of signed but you could not use it until your second birthday" she said and that made since now everything I saw came true even…even my mom. I looked down and Fate put a hand on my shoulder.
"There was nothing you could do Perseus whatever you see in will come true no matter how hard it is" she said and I looked down but I nodded.
"Wait you gave Poseidon's son the gift of sight something that makes him twice as powerful then he already was?" the gray eye woman asked and Fate nodded.
"Yes he had true potential and I believe he will change the course of your future" she said and I felt more nervous than I already was.
"That's madnessAtropos why would you even consider that!" Zeus demanded but Fate wasn't fazed.
"Because Zeus he truly has potential and also his fate lies with this power and some of you" she said and now that caught their attention.
"The three of us have picked four gods that will be helping Percy as he grows" she said and they waited.
"Poseidon was one of course, you will help him with his powers, they may be different but I'm sure you can handle it" she said and Poseidon smiled and nodded. Zeus looked like he was about to argue but Fate continued.
"Athena you were our second choice" she said and ever one was actually extremely surprised to hear that.
"Me? But Atropos I hate everything about Poseidon, including his children" Athena stated and Fate nodded.
"We are aware of that, but you were the only one qualified enough to teach him about our world" Fate said and Athena wanted to argue but I guess she knew she was right.
"Artemis you as well" Fate said and now even I was surprise because what I remember from the legend of Artemis she hated all men.
"No! Appsolutely not!" she said.
"You say that as if you had much of a chose" Fate said and Artemis turned red.
"I will not take a man into my camp just to teach him something" she said and Fate looked like she was losing her potions.
"You are to teach him tracking and how to use a bow" she said,
"Then let Apollo do it" she said and Fate shook her head.
"No Perseus fate does not lie with him but with you, now if you wish to complain anymore you shall see your camp having monsters upon monsters coming after you with no breaks" Fate said and Artemis looked like she really wanted to kill something but she just sat back down. I looked at her brother who was trying so hard not to laugh.
"Now that that's settled, the last god we have chosen to take care of him is Hades" she said and they looked out of this world shock.
"Hades? Hades hates all heroes why would he help in this?" Zeus asked and all she did was smile.
"We already took care of it so don't worry about it" she said before turning to me.
"Now I will leave you with them, I will see you when you visit Hades" she said and started leaving me with thirteen all powerful beings. I gulped before turning to them only to see them arguing with each other.
"There's no way I'm taking care of some seas pone!"
"Well I'm not taking care of him he's a boy!"
"That is my son not you both are talking about!"
"I say we just kill him!"
"And face the rath of the fates; please I rather face dad's rath"
"He has a point"
"Oh can we all just be grown up about this please"
"Your one to talk miss, I rather be shopping!"
"Well I rather be somewhere else then this"
"I rather be building then this"
"That is enough!" a new voice came in and we turned to see a beautiful woman with golden eyes.
"Hestia?" Zeus and Poseidon said and she looked at me.
"The Fates have given you an assignment and you rather fight, for all we know he could be the answer to the problem" she said and some looked down not liking that idea.
"She may have a point, I do not like the fact that there's another child of you three but this could help us" A woman with green eyes said.
"Exactly, yes he may be powerful but wouldn't it be better if he was on our side and not angry with you for leaving him to die, not saying you would do that Poseidon" Hestia said and they all consider it.
"As much as I hate to admit it that is a logical strategy" Athena said and the others nodded.
"Fine then we won't be killing the kid" Zeus said and I signed and looked at Hestia.
"Thank you Lady Hestia, Lady Demeter" I said and they smiled.
"Oh such a polite young man, I already like him" Demeter said. Poseidon got up and turned to a normal human size and smiled at me.
"I guess you can come with me for now, but I must ask what has happened to your mother?" he asked and I looked down.
"C-can I tell you later?" I asked and he nodded,
"Of course" he said and I thanked him. After a couple of minutes it was decided that I was going to be with Athena and Artemis during the spring seasons, Poseidon the summer and Hades the Fall, since Fate told me no make sure not to do anything during the winter season. After that I left with my father for the next couple of years my life was going to be challenging.
