Do you ever get that feeling where you're trying your best at something yet you feel as if you aren't trying hard enough or that feeling of longing for something or someone to make you feel complete

I'm Percy Jackson a water mage, at least that's what I think I am, I haven't told anyone about my ability to control water or breathe underwater I figured I could do that when I was six, I felt I could do a lot more than that but I just can't like a limiter of some sorts, and with the ability to control water came with frightening monsters I had to kill the first time it happened I almost died thankfully I regenerate extremely faster in contact with water so fighting monster at some point became extremely easier since I was six now I can control mostly liquid not only water like liquid metals(Mercury) oil and even blood and all that and more I find it hard to socialize spending most of my time reading about Greek mythology I connected the dots and figured out I was somehow affiliated with the Greek God Poseidon but I didn't know how maybe son perhaps.

Cutting me out of my inner monologue was Mrs Dodds, an Alecto I could tell by her scent they were one of the first monsters I encountered, she was disguised as my pre-algebra teacher for reasons I don't know, but I knew playing dumb would help, the school was a waste of time to me I knew everything my perfect memory made sure of that, I remember every book I've early read, teaching I've watched online and so on.

"Mr Jackson, would you mind answering the question on the board?" Mrs Dodds asked I could feel her intent to tear into my skin from the last row, standing up from my desk I was about to walk forward till I caught a glimpse of the board "25"

The whole class were probably used to it by now, I was that smart, strong, unapproachable character in their eyes, if only they knew how hard I had to work to get here.

Mrs Dodds grumbled "correct" and I went back to my seat, I found her better than the centaur and goat guy that always plagued the shadows watching over me like I'm some sort of confused kid at least I could tell she wanted to kill me, but the Goat boy I couldn't read him at all, we were best friends keeping enemies' closer than I wanted to but heck.

'I hate Yancy academy' immediately after class ended I saw the main reason I hated the school 'Nancy Bobofit' she's tried to bully me countless times both verbal and physically I tone her out cause first girls are naturally troublesome but at any reaction to her efforts of disgracing me Mrs Dodds gives me detention I don't want that.

"Hello, surprise it's the lonely Einstein reject," Nancy announced drawing all the attention to herself but as usual I toned her out, till she left, this time she destroyed my textbooks 'Go and kill Mrs Dodds' The thought popped into my mind before I slammed my head to the table 'i hate this school'

Latin class

While Mr Brunner spoke about Greek mythology and its pantheons I felt that feeling of insatiable hungry and the desire to be satisfied resurfacing, we were currently at a metropolitan museum, and the more my eyes went through all the tablets that told about the history of Kronos eating his children the more I felt the hunger raise while my eyes trailed everywhere I saw the name written in Greek above the walls that made my heartbeat rise extremely quickly "Chaos"

"Mr Jackson!" Mr Brunner yelled my name as I snapped out of the trance.

"Is everything okay? You suddenly started shaking" He asked me, I could see Grover look down for reasons I don't know of.

Narrators POV

While Percy and the other students enjoyed recess in the Museum he was immediately called by Mrs Dodds Grover looked down and Mr Brunner showed a concerned expression which Percy noticed but dismissed from his head.
