(5 Years of Age)
A year after I and my mortal mother moved and settled into the apartment, all has been going well, my mother spent most of the year looking for one of those mortal tasks that generate money, I believe they're called jobs, before finding one she enjoyed two months ago. As I had to go to this dreaded "school" with little screaming and shouting mortals, trying to learn to colour and count, my mother's job allowed her to work from nine in the morning till 4 in the afternoon, which unfortunately means I get stuck at school for an extra hour. When my mother is not working or going shopping, we spend most of our time together, going for walks and just sitting and reading books, we would also watch those mortal shows called movies, some were enjoyable and others not as much.
As the year passed, I continued to practice to try to regain more of my power, succeeding somewhat, I regained my Life Sense allowing me to sense all life-force of living creatures with a six-meter radius, and Animal Communication enabling me to communicate to animals again, as well as Plant Growth, returning me the ability to grow and spread rapidly, I also regained some control over my earthen body again. My vibration sense has grown to allow me to feel all vibrations within a ten-meter radius.
I also learned that most of the religions were classed as myths written by more primative mortals, quickly finding out that the gods haven't walked the earth openly in a millennium nor have they openly influenced or smited mortals.
One last thing that happened during the past year was my resolve in gaining my mother as a lover and possible wife in the future, as no mortal man, woman, god or goddess was good enough for her other than myself.
(8 Years of Age)
The past three years have continued in the same manner, going to school, spending time with my mother, practising and trying to regain my powers. On the last one, I managed to increase my strength and control over my earthen body, expanded the range of both life and vibration sense to a sixty-meter radius and unlocked some more of my powers namely Life-Force Absorption as the name states, allows for me to absorb Life-Force, Creation gives me the ability to create anything, however currently, I am limited to creating small things, Life-Creation similar to my Creation ability but instead enables me to create living beings, Healing provides me with the ability to heal myself and other living beings, Pleasant Scent makes it so I was smell pleasant regardless of hygiene.
Unfortunately, I noticed a problem when regaining my powers, my mortal body cannot withstand the vast amount of powers it's receiving, my body would have sessions of violent trembles and flesh cracking painfully, I always healed the cracks before my mother would notice, as to not worry her.
(10 Years of Age)
The past two years, I discontinued my practising, despite this I continued to have sessions and began to formalize a method using one of my powers and memories, when I was at full power I could gather all the life-force from all living beings on my earthen body to enhance my strength to far greater levels almost but never reaching the same realm of strength as chaos this along with a thing called Cultivation or more specifically Body Cultivation or Tempering I read in my mortal life from eastern fantasy novels, I concluded if I could replicate Body Tempering using my Life-Force rather than a temporary boost to my physical power, I gain a permanent boost that should help me with stabilising my powers.
Putting my theory to the test, I assume a lotus pose before taking deep measured breathes as I begin to absorb the Life-Force in the atmosphere slowly, taking the little strands of the life-force gathered inside me, I slowly manipulate them to saturate my entire body rather than just reinforcing certain parts. I continue this until my body feels full, unable to be saturated further, I release the excess gathered life-force back into the atmosphere before slowly standing up my body cracking and snapping pleasantly, instantly I feel slightly better as if a great pressure has been released.
I have also started to practice mortal fighting styles. I practised fighting styles such as Krav Maga, Muay-Thai and Jiu-Jitsu with ease and Integrated my body tempering, tempering my body to greater levels in one session than sitting down and meditating can do in five sessions.
(12 Years of Age) (Start of Plot)
Over the past two years, I continued to temper my body, mastered my fighting styles and begin trying to regain and expand my powers, achieving considerable success, unlocking Life Manipulation, Fertility Manipulation and Nature Manipulation and further increasing my power over my earthen body as well as the range of my life and vibration sense to a two-hundred-meter radius.
Aside from that, I am entering a new school today as my mother had a promotion for her job and we moved so she could be closer to her work. The school in question was named Yancy Academy and currently, my mother, who is still looking as youthful as a twenty-year-old thanks to my manipulation of her life-force, is driving me there for the first time.
As we arrive and mother stops the car she turns towards me and smiles tenderly, "Be good, enjoy your day and I love you." Smiling at her I answer with, "Yeah, okay mom, love you too," and as I'm about to climb out of the car, my mother speaks again, "At least try to make friends and stop acting so arrogant to others" I just respond with a nod and climb out of the car, and begin moving to the entrance of the school, turning back to wave as my mother drives away.
As I enter the academy building, I sigh in exasperation at being surrounded by these annoying mortals once again. I move through the building following the map in my mind to the sixth-grade classroom, having seen it on the Yancy Academy website. As I near the classroom I feel a half-mortal half-divine sea and earth flavoured life-force probably a child of Poseidon, as well as a life-force flavoured like nature and goats in line with that of a satyr.
Knocking on the classroom door a plain mortal teacher walks out of the room and greets me, "Hello, how can I help you?"
"Yeah, I'm Gaia Drivas, I'm a transfer student"
"Ah yes, I remember you on the register, come in and introduce yourself, there should be an empty seat at the back of the class you can take." With that, he walks back into the class and I follow behind and stand at the front of the class as he asks me to introduce myself.
"Hello, I am Gaia Drivas" is all I say before moving to the only empty seat in the classroom while looking at the child of Poseidon, a boy with dishevelled jet black hair and sea-green eyes, and the satyr, that had curly brown hair, brown eyes and a wispy beard, sitting next to the child of Poseidon.
Removing my gaze from the duo as I take a seat and mediating not bothered with mortal education.
(3rd Person P.O.V / Grover Underwood)
"Psst, Percy" Grover whisper shouts to the child of Poseidon in the seat next to him.
"What is it, Grover?" The now named Percy asks, looking at his friend curiously.
"Stay away from that Gaia, something is weird about her," Grover informed his friend in worry, feeling something off about her and not being able to sense her emotions, there was also something attracting him to her aura as if it was the sense of home, he also sensed that she has a scent of a demigod but not at the same time.
"Okay, whatever," Is all Percy responds with, not really caring about his friends worry about some new girl.
(1st Person P.O.V / Gaia)
Interesting, so that satyr can sense something off about me, something to work on. I tune out of the rest of their conversation as it moved onto typical mortal topics about sports and whatnot. I delve back into a meditative state and set my body to automatically keep the teacher from interrupting me by acting as if I was paying attention.
(7 Hours Later)
I sigh in relief and stretch my body after being sat down all day while I walk out of the academy, glad it's finally over. Leaving the academy grounds, I start my 10-minute trek to my new home, however, halfway through my walk I sensed a bull and man flavoured life-force quickly closing in on my position. I turn in the direction of the life-force and notice a large monster with a body of a man and the head of a bull, shaking the ground as he runs at me.
Manipulating the ground, I create a sharpened and hardened pillar of earth in the path of the charging man-bull, watching in disinterest as the monster speared himself through the chest as he ran into the pillar, unable to slow down or dodge in time. Though what does get my attention is that the monster explodes into a cloud of gold dust and its life-force rapidly travels somewhere that I, regrettably, can't follow as it leaves the range of my Life-Sense.
"Odd" Is all I say at the occurrence before continuing my walk home.
(6 Months Later)
Not much happened the past six months aside from the occasional monster attack, not that I'm am complaining as it allows me to flex my powers, killing and torturing the monsters in many ways was entertaining. I continued to temper my body, achieving enough strength to lift a car, and regaining my powers, unlocking some more of my life, animal, harvest and creation domains. School continued to bore me as the only class I found interesting was the greek mythology class. The greek class was taught by my grandchild Chiron, who is presumably in the school to monitor Percy or Perseus Jackson, the son of Poseidon.
Learning a lot of greek history after my sealing was informative, even if it disgusted me at some of the atrocities my grandchildren had committed, especially the amount of rape which is an insult to my domain of procreation, if I had remained unsealed and they committed these acts when I was around, I would have stripped them of their godhood and made them mortals.
Anyway, today we are going on a field trip to a museum for our greek class to learn more about greek history and "mythology", as we climb aboard the bus that will take us to the museum, I sense that something is coming, especially when it suddenly started to rain and thunder heavily, a sign of Zeus being angry.
I get comfortable on one of the bus seat row and smirk, 'Interesting'
