Summary

I am a son, and I have nanomachines inside me. What did you expect? 
 
 
 
Having gained self-awareness while still in my mother's belly, I realized that this was my chance. Being born was the first step. Then at one year old I would have a college degree, and at five I would be a billionaire. I didn't care that I remembered nothing of the past. This being a magical world, and with lots of smart tech, too, I'd catch up in no time, wouldn't I? 
 
 
 
Yeah, right. 
 
 
 
"This baby's dying!"—That is what I heard in the first minutes of my life. 
 
 
 
I was dying? What? In the very first minute? Was this some kind of sick joke? Was the whole world against me? 
 
 
 
Something had to be done . . .
