Mr Harris's POV

Me the smartest, bravest and killer cyclops was at a school teaching imbeciles their ABC's. I was supposed to be feasting on demigod flesh yet here I was.

I sat on the front desk directing new students to their classrooms. More people walked through the door, the first thing I noticed was their aura as it was the most powerful I'd felt in decades. Yes yes my belly isn't going to go starving today. They were young a girl and a boy. As they got closer it took all I got not to attack them.
"Excuse me sir we're looking for the first grade classroom" the girl says confidently.
"Name" I say staring down at the small girl.
"A-Annabeth Jackson" she stutters.
"You" I say pointing my finger at the boy.
"P-Percy Jackson" He says. I laugh not believing a word he says.
"You two are not related" I say.
"I'm a-adopted" the girl replies.
Ah that explains it. They would have to be Gods for that to work.
I check my list 'Percy and Annabeth Jackson room 14 Mr Jones'.
"Down the hall" I say pointing "first to the right"
"Which way Is right?" The boy asks.
"Aghhh fine I'll take you!" I yell.

I didn't have time for this. I'd rather be sent right back to Tartarus than deal with another stupid child. I grabbed both of their arms and pushed them over to the classroom "goodbye!" I say seeing them flinch.

And I stomp back over to my desk. Stupid children.

Percy's Pov

That guy was super scary. We hadn't done anything wrong and he already hated us.

"I don't like that guy" My sister says.
"He's a meany" I agree.

We pull open the door. The first thing I realise is that we're late, the register had already started and the teacher was introducing themselves. He had brown eyes and hair and sat in a wheelchair.

"Sorry we're late" me and my sister say at the same time.
"That's alright" the teacher says his eyes filled with kindness "I was just introducing myself, I am Mr Jones your new teacher".
"Would you like to sit down?" He asks kindly.
"Okay" we both say.
We walk over to the only remaining desks. At the back.

"Alright children" Mr Jones says "take a pencil from the jar on my desk and a paper circle. I'll explain the rest after".
"Front row first" he says.

I was tapped my fingers waiting for our turn to go up. When it finally was I jumped up a ran over.

"Now you've all got your pencils I'd like you to decorate your name in the middle"

I scribbled my name down in my neatest handwriting. Not very neat.
I saw annabeth do the same.

"Everyone show your paper" He says.
I pick mine up and I hold it as high as I can.
"Well done everyone all your writing is very neat" he says.
Somehow I knew he wasn't talking about mine.
"Now I'm going to hand you each one coloured pencil each and you can decorate it however you like"
I was handed blue!
I looked over and Annabeth had got green.
I drew fish all over mine.
Mr Jones walked over to me.
"Well done Percy! Are those fish?" He asks smiling.
"Yep they're my favourite".
"I like horses" Mr Jones says.
"I can talk to horses" I say. It was true, once we went to a farm and the horse was talking about annoying chickens.
Mr Jones furrows his eyebrows "that's interesting" he says then walks to the next person.

The whole day went like that until an hour before the end of the day.
A knock was heard on the door. Mr Jones went to answer it.
"Oh hello Mr Harris do you need anything?" Mr Jones asks.
"Oh mr and Miss Jackson's mother just called saying that they have a doctors appointment".
"Today?" Mr Jones questions.
"Oh yes she says that she forgot to tell earlier and that it's really important".
"Ok you can go you two"

We left the classroom.

"Follow me" Mr Harris says.

He took us to an empty classroom and shut the door. Wait we never had a doctors appointment...

"Finally I may feast on demigod flesh" he says growing in size.
