Flashback

"Are you okay" my dad asks concerned for my wellbeing "i don't know dad i feel sad and i don't know why" i admitted hoping he would have an answer "how long has this gone on for?" My dad asks again, now sitting next to me on the couch. "I don't know maybe a few months" i stated my dad gives me a look of hurt "why didn't you tell me?" He asks again, he loves to chat. "Cause i didn't think it was important" i said. A while later my dad drove me to a specialist who studies mental health.

We arrived and i got out of my dads silver Lexus, i loved that car and we walked in. My dad walked up to the front counter and said "I'm here to see specialist Steal", which i guess was his last name. "Yes and name of the client?" The counter lady asks, "Zero, 8 years old" my father said. "Okay please take a seat Dr. Steal will be with you shortly" with that my father and me sat down and waited.

A while later a man with brown hair, tan skin and unusual silver eyes came out from a room down a long, narrow hallway. "Zero" he shouted into the waiting room, my father and me got up and followed him into the first
room on the right.

"Hello my name is Dr. Steal, what's the problem" he said kindly, my dad answers "my son has been sad recently without any reason to be" my dad says worry in his voice.

"Hmm, Zero describe to me what you think when i hold up these photos one at a time" he said and i nodded. The first photo was of a rainy day, i didn't even think before i answered but it wasn't the answer i was directed to say.

"I don't know what this feeling is, it feels like my heart and soul is empty, but something is pushing all my feelings away. I often think of rainy days and cloudy skys, i let darkness fill my brain and soul. I love the rare but beautiful Red Moon, but others fear it. I have no idea why but for some reason i feel like nothing can get into my heart" i finish and both Dr. Steal and my dad are looking at me wide-eyed, shocked that something like that could come out of a 8 year olds mouth.

"It looks like he has a server case of depression, how long has this gone on for Zero? The Dr asks i bow mu head "a few months maybe more" i say the Dr sighs and start writing on a piece of paper and handed it to my dad. At that moment i said without thinking "the Red Moon is coming, it will appear in the sky in exactly 4 nights time".

Later that day:
I was sitting on the couch drawing, my mother walks past and looks down at my drawing, "that looks amazing sweetie, what is it" she says "its the Red Moon mum, i can feel it approaching" i say and my mum nods and walks away.

My dad came home with anti-depressant pills for me to take, i took one but didn't feel any better. I walked up to my room, opened my door and went in. I approached the lizard tank under my window, i looked into the giant glass cage, there sat my bearded dragon Deathracer and he is called that because he has made it through the brink of death a few times. I picked him up and out of his tank and sat on my bed with him.

"Deathracer, i feel something awful is about to happen but i don't know what, i looked out my window and realized that the moon was...red.

I got up and walked over to my window stared out of it and looked at the moon. Suddenly i felt something weird, suddenly i could see and feel the signs of when the Red Moon would appear again, i stood there in awe as i was completely memorized by the moon. Something triggered inside me somehow i understood the Red Moon and everything it meant, why people feared it, why it was here. I had a connection with it, i knew this much was true.
