1 Prologue

It had been an interesting few months, first off, I finally got out of the Army, my contract over. Secondly the big ol' C virus hit. I thought it was simply blown out of proportion and in most ways it probably was, unless you had an underlying condition such as let's say.. a bad heart? Yeah that would do it.

It kind of ruined my dream of simply going out to sea and traveling the world as i so very much desired to do. Sometimes life screws you though so what can you do about it but roll with the punches?

I had already taken the last few days to say goodbye to my family and friends such as they were. My parents are already long since passed away and my brother is still in the service. I am still close with my sister but she has her own family and I didn't want her to see me pass as I deteriorated. A hospice nurse would keep in contact with me until the end, calling and texting me at least once or twice a day to check on me to see if I kicked the bucket yet.

————————-

It felt weird, like being in a dream but being mostly coherent but I couldn't move in the slightest. The light is kind of bright but not overwhelmingly so. I wonder if this is heaven? If so I'm not impressed nor happy with where I ended up.

"This is not quite heaven child." Said a wizened voice from afar.

"W-where am I? Who are you? What is this place?!" I said somewhat fearfully. This was my ever after, after all, I had every right to be afraid I think.

"You are in the in between, neither heaven nor hell, simply a limbo of sorts for passing souls. It seems yours isn't quite ready to pass on but I also can't send you back to whence you came…"

'Could he be suggesting what I think he is suggesting?? Will this be the legendary isekai??! Please let it be that!' I thought vigorously to any god or being who could be listening, especially the one in front of me or at the very least the one in my presence as I can't actually see him.

"It is as you are thinking child. You will be given another chance at life in a world of my choosing but that you will also have decent knowledge of. A lot of stupid things happen in that world and while I won't force you to play mr. fix it, it would be amusing to see how you mess with the plot as I know you will." If I could see this dude I'm positive he would be smirking. I can almost hear it in his voice.

"What world would you be sending me to and do I get any powers or wishes??" I asked the deity with hope tinging my voice.

"Hmmm as for the world no I won't tell you but it will be obvious once you check where you live at. A small surprise I suppose, wouldn't want to break the suspense. As for wishes and powers.. it depends on what you ask for I suppose, I am open to the idea."

"I love the sea, can you give me Percy Jackson's powers or something along that line?" I ask hoping he would agree to my request so I wouldn't have to beg.

"Well it's not a bad wish really. As I know that you want to experience the sea and being the son of Poseidon would certainly help in that regard, it's not really an over powered wish considering the world I am sending you to." I paled when he finished or would have if I had a body to do so with. Where the hell is he sending me??

"Therefore I will give you the enhanced abilities you will need to survive and actually make a difference in that world should you choose to." He told me disregarding my rising terror. 'Well that's not so bad I guess at least I will be on par with whatever is out there I guess.'

"Very well, uuuuh am I going to have to go through puberty again or babyhood?" 'Please say no please say no please say no!!!' I babbled internally to myself.

He just sighed loudly. "Very well, I will make you 17 years old, emancipated and home schooled or graduated early. You will have a home on the same street as the main character, you will have just moved to the area. Now… peace out brat!"

He says the last part quickly before I can even reply and my world goes dark.
