Bad Moon

CHAPTER 2

Chapter 2

“What the hell Jazz! You scared the shiznit out of me.” I yell as Jazz stands there laughing. I walk over and drop my bags as I sit at the closest table holding my chest with shaking hands. “I’m glad my heart attack is of great humor to you.” I say, my words dripping in sarcasm. 

“I’m...sss-sorry.” She stutters out as she tries, and fails, to contain her laughter. “I really didn’t mean to scare you!” She takes a deep breath and wipes the tears of laughter from her face. “I called out to you but it was like you were in another world. I just couldn’t resist but I really didn’t think I would scare you that bad!” she explains her laughter calmed down to a wide smile. “Man if only you could have seen your face!” 

“I can imagine, ugh! Just you wait, miss Jazz, I will return the favor when you least expect it!” 

“Can’t wait to see what you come up with. Now, I figured you were getting hungry and I’m starving so I ordered us the biggest burgers this place has to offer, that ok with you?”

“That sounds amazing, You’re the best!” I jump excitedly in my chair at the thought of a huge burger. “But it doesn’t let you off the hook, just so you know.” 

“Order number four-thirty-seven, your order is ready! Order four-thirty-seven!”

“Oh, that’s us!” Jazz jumps up and goes to the boy calling out the number. I can tell she is flirting with him and he is falling for it because a moment later she is leading him to our table. He sets the tray down with a big smile towards Jazz not even noticing me at the table. 

“Thank you.” He nods and walks back to the counter looking back at our table as the next customer wait’s.

“You big flirt!” I whisper yell towards Jazz. She smiles at me, flipping her hair over her shoulder sticking her nose up. 

“Well, if you got it you got it and if you got it you use it or lose it!” She replies with a wink. We both bust out laughing and then dig into our burger’s. 

We ate and talked and finally headed home. It was a strange yet fun day. We said our see ya later’s when Jazz dropped me off at my house. I head up to my room and put my stuff away. My mind went back through today's events so I decided to get my laptop out and do a search for bad moon. 

Ten minutes later, after finding mostly werewolf movies by the name ‘Bad Moon’ and CCR’s ‘Bad Moon Rising’ lyrics, I found something interesting but still don’t understand what it means and how it’s supposed to affect me… Basically it says

:

Bad Moon is a rare occurrence that happens once every hundred years or more.It is said to mark the moment of birth of a wolf like no other. This wolf can be good or evil. Very little is known about the wolf but the ancients describe it as a very powerful beast that has the power to turn to human form and wolf form at will. It’s also noted that besides transformation this wolf possesses many other magical powers but it’s unknown of what or how many there are. Every thousand years there is a bad blood moon where both a male and a female are born. The ancients claim that if these two wolves mate the offspring will bring on the end of the world. There is no other information at this time. We are still studying, finding, and translating the ancient finds and will continue to update as the information comes in.

Um what? This has left me more confused than I was before. I sigh, closing my laptop and getting into bed. I lay there for a long time trying to figure out what any of this has to do with me. I’m just going to put this aside and chalk it up to the old woman being out of her mind. I turn on my side, shut my eyes and let the sleep devour me into it’s embrace.
