CHAPTER -1
So hey guys, this is my first fanfiction. I've never written before but always had the passion for a long time. This story was inspired from an idea that has been floating in my head for a long time. So without further ado let the story begin.
I don't own either Marvel or Riordan verse and this is a strictly non profitable story, the only benefit being my personal satisfaction.

Joint Dark Energy Mission Facility – Mojave Desert, Nevada
"So, this looks ominous", the dark-haired man said to the scientist standing next to him. They where both looking at a blue cube suspended in mid-air by several metal contraptions. The cube pulsed with mysterious energy sending minor tendrils of electricity arcing all over the place.
"The Tesseract, she is misbehaving" the scientist replied to the agent with a low chuckle. Spending months working on the cube gave him a sense of familiarity with it. The agent shot the scientist a quizzical look as he puzzled over his words.
"The Tesseract as we understand it is a source of unlimited clean energy. The only problem being how it defies all laws of physics whenever it wants. Makes it quite difficult to study as it gives out spontaneous reactions like this, however" the scientist pushed his glasses upwards as he further analysed the readings given on the monitors connected to the cube "this looks like the biggest one so far".
"Do you think we should call the director?" the agent asked the scientist. The scientist opened his mouth to speak but was cut off, as the cube pulsed more violently than before. With instincts honed over a lifetime of dangerous situations the agent was able to figure out what was happening a split second before it did. "Get down" he screamed and pulled the scientist down with him as a powerful shockwave emanated out of the cube destroying everything in a twenty-metre radius. The blue energy pulse however continued on, spanning the entire facility.
The agent shielded the scientist as best as he could with his own body but it didn't stop the both of them from being thrown into a wall nearly breaking it. The cube fell down to the ground having destroyed the contraptions suspending it. The entire lab was wrecked badly with glass shard from the monitors and doors scattered all across the floor. In the middle of it lied the tesseract causing the area of the floor in contact with it to steam.
The agent recovered quickly and checked to see if his companion was injured. "Doc, you all, right?" he asked the scientist worriedly. The scientist was sitting on the floor with a bewildered expression as he contemplated the cube's strange behaviour. He finally turned to the agent and spoke "I think its time we called the director".
A few moments before the energy surge….
Cross-Species Genetics Lab, Headed By- Richard Parker
Unknown to both, the scientist and the agent a few floors above the tesseract storage area unit, a spider was hanging on its own web inside a polymer layered composite glass unit designed specifically to contain it. The spider suddenly started glitching with a high pitch sound and a red flicker and hit the walls of the unit subsequently falling to its bottom. Unperturbed by this as if it was a common occurrence, the spider once again started spinning its web to get to the top of the storage unit. It was then that the energy surge from the tesseract hit it. It suddenly started glitching uncontrollably with a faint blue glow reminiscent to that of the tesseract. After glitching from one end of the storage unit to another for a few moments, the spider disappeared from the unit with a loud crackle of electricity.

Several dimensions away…...
Earth-1277
The pale moonlight shone through the window illuminating the room. A young boy of about thirteen was lying face down on his bed sprawled above his bedsheet sleeping comfortably. Exhausted after a long day of school followed by gruelling self-training, the boy had barely wished his mother good night before falling on the bed. The ticking of the clock by his bedside was the only sound in this tranquil environment.
Suddenly a faint crackle of electricity was heard and an eerie blue light shone across the room. A small red and black spider popped into existence on top of the boy just as the glow faded. Contrary to its previous behaviour, the spider glitched this time with a blue glow as opposed to its previous colour. The spider slowly crawled its way along the boys back until reaching his exposed neck.
As if compelled by a higher being the spider stopped crawling and glitched once more. It then bit the boys neck injecting its toxin into the child's body. Before it could crawl away a hand came out of nowhere slapping it hard. The boy had instinctively hit the spider when he felt the pain from the bite. The spider unable to move away in time dropped dead on the ground glitching once more.
The deadly toxins present in the bite spread through the boy's body causing his veins to glow a faint blue before being replaced by a sea-green flicker. Sweat built up along his body as it tried to acclimate to the foreign matter in it. Not knowing any of the changes happening in his own body, Percy Jackson turned over and continued sleeping peacefully.
In a sub-dimension on the same earth…...
Fatum Cunabula- The realm of the Moirai
Three old ladies watched on with muted shock as threads woven across an intricately designed tapestry began disappearing without any reason. They quickly began weaving archaic spells of immense power to slow down the disappearance of the threads. However, seeing that their power had no effect on the tapestry, they prepared themselves and drew power from a foreign dimension
vis chaos primum et potissima voce vocamus
ut corpora nostra sint aquaeductus tuae potestatis
ligare incognitas temporis...
The three ladies chanted fervently as the realm quaked with indescribable power. Rune bindings began to flow from them to the tapestry circling it and enveloping it in a soft green glow. The threads slowly stopped disappearing one by one. Suddenly the realm almost fractured due to an unexpected fluctuation in the power. The room grew extremely cold as they suddenly felt the consciousness of another being at the very edge of their awareness. With a panicked cry they stopped the chanting cutting the flow of power. However, their effort seemed to have borne fruit as the threads stopped disappearing. But they knew that this would not stay for long.
"Atropos, what is happening?" the tallest of the three ladies asked her sibling with an expression of horror dawning across her face. The lady named Atropos without looking at her sister replied with a grim tone "An anomaly happened Clotho, an anomaly" facing both her siblings Atropos continued "Destiny has been changed".
