My family is so strange. I know everyone says that, but with me, it really hits home. Let me explain. Hi, my name is Percy Jackson, son of Poseidon. Not ringing a bell? Greek god of the oceans, like 6 feet tall, commonly known as "The Fork Guy?" Yep. That's dear ol' dad. Anyways, that makes me related to pretty much all the gods and goddesses of Olympus, which can make things... crazy. This is one of those things.

When you're thrown into a black sack, dragged into the back of a truck, and then dumped on the hard stone floor, you tend to get the wrong idea. That's why when I was free, I immediately uncapped Riptide, shouting Ancient Greek battle cries, and wreaked havoc everywhere I could. I heard someone clear teir throat. Turning, I was met with some very, very amused Olympians.

"PERSEUS." Zeus boomed, shaking the floor. "PLEASE REFRAIN FROM DESTROYING OLYMPUS." I capped my sword reluctantly.

"Sorry, sir." I didn't bother to keep the annoyance out of my voice. "I assumed I had been kidnapped." I glanced at Hera briefly. "Again." There was an uncomfortable silence. Poseidon finally stood, gaining the room's attention.

"Come, Perseus, we have much to talk about." he said, leading me out the doorway. I followed, a confused look plastered on my face.

What could this possibly be about? I thought to myself, walking down the hall with my dad.The architecture was stunning. Twelve rooms branched out from the hallwa, I assumed, for each god or goddess. We entered the room with walls built of coral and sea stone. Posiedon moved to a hammock hanging on one wall, and motioned for me to sit as well. I couldn't hold it in anymore.

"What the heck is going on??!?" I exclaimed, and he took a breath, leaning back into his hammock.

"Son, you know by now that our world is much more complicated than it seems."

Tell me about it. Just last year, we discovered the existence of Norse and Egyptian gods. It's enough to make your brain implode. I nodded, not sure where he was going with this.

Poseidon sighed. "The multiverse is even more complicated." I did a double take.

"The MULTIVERSE? As in separate dimensions and all that?!!" He nodded. "So that's... real?"

"As real as you and I." he replied. I placed my head in my hands, trying to process this.

The god continued, not noticing. "Several centuries ago, the children of Zeus, Hephestaus, Gaea, and myself mysteriously disappeared. We soon located them in a empty universe." I listened intently, captivated by the story.

"Turns out, that universe isn't empty after all. There were humans living there, and soon learned from our children. In other words, the people of this world can control the elements." I frowned slightly.

"And what does this have to do with me?" I asked uncertainly. Poseidon looked into my eyes.

"You, my son, are being sent there to meet them." And with a snap of his fingers, the world went black.
