Life wasn't always fair for Perseus Jackson, even when he was unaware of his unique heritage. The Fates had planned out his life multiple times, from love interests, to major decisions, from if he was raised with the Gods, to raising himself on the streets. Yet the most unique and rewarding path for his life, and the life of others could take was if intervention was done directly, and so, it was done.

It all began with Sally Jackson. She was a smart, independent woman. She was a fierce, wild, and unpredictable women, somewhat similar to the sea. Perhaps this was the reason her heart went out to the sea god when she saw him for the first time. Maybe it was the doings of the fates, or of Eros, yet either way, her decision to start a relationship with the sea god was something that would send ripples throughout the worlds. It resulted in the birth of one Perseus Jackson, and the change that would come with him.

Even as he was born, Percy was a strange boy to start out with, even more so then others with similar heritage. He was decidedly weird, in a good sort of way, at least that's what Sally thought of her little boy. Even though Poseidon had told her many things about the life of a demi-god, Percy was different. He wasn't diagnosed with dyslexia, nor with ADHD, and most importantly, it seems like he was a genius. At the young age of 12 months, he was speaking, though barely, and learning at a rapid rate, and he would keep doing so. To Sally this would seem as his godly heritage shining through, after all gods develop quickly, but what Sally didn't know was the hand the Fates had in this. They had finally decided on a path that Perseus's life was going to take, and their plan was slowly being put in place, his early development being just the start. It would be five more years before it would be time to put Perseus on the path with extraordinary potential, and only time would tell what he'd do with it.

And so, with their decision made; life with Percy, was normal for the time being. Well as normal as it could be, until exactly five years past where we see Percy today…

He was very excited as he got ready for the night. Tomorrow was when he turned 6 years old, and he couldn't wait. Even though he had a strange feeling, a premonition of sorts, that something very important was going to happen, he just brushed the feeling off as he got ready to sleep, calling out, "Good night Mom!"

Sally, who was similarly getting ready for bed in turn replied, "Good night Percy, I'll see you tomorrow, now go to sleep."

And as Perseus slept, the Fates were in their domain where they were… plotting. Yes if it weren't for their looks, location and the strange but powerful aura coming from them, one might mistake them for gossiping teenagers... But here they planned the endless possibilities that a single choice could make, the paths of trillions were made from this very spot, and at this moment they were looking at the string of Perseus Jackson, the one who they called a nexus, someone who could bring great change. Tonight was the night the Fates enacted the next step in the plan of guiding Perseus, by giving him the power of the Gamer. Here sat Clotho, Lachesis, and Atropos.

Atropos said, "It is time sisters, it is Perseus's sixth birthday as we agreed, it is time to gift him the power of the Gamer, we cannot wait any longer, less we ourselves face consequences…"

Clotho said passionately, "Come now Atropos, have some compassion, the boy is but six, surely we can wait before we give him such responsibility."

Atropos rolled her eyes at the "compassion" her sister was showing, she knew he was young but that didn't stop anyone before, not to mention she didn't want to piss of The-One-Above-All, who had 'subtlety' decided to endorse the plan, making it impossible to back out, and interfering for the first time since... well, a long time.

"Clotho, you know as well as I that this is the best choice to make at this time…"

Lachesis who was quiet till this point had decided to intercede before they could go into one of their debates, at which point the boy would be turning 7, seriously she felt like a babysitter for divine beings!

Else where, while tending the Hearth, Hestia sneezed...

"Sisters, we have decided on this course of action long ago, we must begin as he sleeps, come now."

As Lachesis said this she took out Perseus's string, representing his life, and what will become of it.

The sisters' fate stood from their little chairs while gathering their powers as they glowed eerily while Perseus's life string floated in-between them. They sent beams of their power into Perseus's string, while chanting in an ancient, and powerful language far older then this world. They sent waves power into the string for what seemed to be hours, before they slowly transformed into their immortal form where Perseus's string finally glowed golden, then a strange aura that was as black as the void itself, before returning to normal.

Lachesis along with her sisters whose eyes were widen slightly in shock simply said. "It is done, he has the power of the Gamer, and something else... It is time to see what he makes of it."
