Blue Moon

The New House Chapter 1

I stared up at the huge house-no correction mansion-in front of me. My skateboard was held tight in one hand and my suitcase in the other. God I hate moving. This is our third move in one month. Meaning me my father and my step mom who I didn't accept at all. I hated her and wanted her out.

The day my parents had a divorce is a day Ill never forget.

~FLASHBACK~

"John! Things don't last forever! The divorce is happening. Thats it." My mom, Jane said in the kitchen. I couldn't believe my ears. My mom and dad were having a divorce.

"What about Zoe?" My dad asked. I could hear he was trying not to cry.

"I don't know. Your a good father. But I need this."

Shaking my head I got up and ran out the back door into the woods surrounding our small house. Tears blurred my vision and I stumbled over a branch tripping and scrapping my knees. I sat there crying for a few minutes then heard a growl.

Snapping my head up I saw a huge black wolf stalking over to me saliva dripping from its mouth.

Screaming I got up to run but the wolfs teeth clamped around my leg stopping me making me hit the ground. Pain shot through my arm and I screamed again.

Kicking I caught the wolf in the snout hearing it growl its grip loosening. I got up again and began running but the wolf jump on my back making me fall to the ground again. I felt its teeth dig into my shoulder blood soaking my shirt. I screamed thrashing but its teeth only dug in deeper.

I heard a familiar click then a loud boom and the weight was gone.

My vision began to blur and I blacked out.

~FLASHBACK ENDED~

I looked at the house feeling the pain of that day not just physically but emotionally to.

"Z,you okay?" I heard Angela say to me placing her hand on my shoulder. I jumped and walked into the house not giving her an answer. There was a huge living room that was like the size of two rooms and a kitchen with marble counter tops and a small dining room. Probably the only small thing in this house. Then there was a door that lead to a basement. Upstairs there was the attic and about four rooms and two bathrooms. Walking up the marble stairs I made a left turn and walked all the way down the hall to the last room and walked in. There was a balcony and a walk in closet along with my own bathroom. We didn't need a house this big. We could've took a two bedroom house with a basement and attic and a small living room with a kitchen with wooden counter tops!

Placing my suitcase and my skateboard down I walked back downstairs to see my dad and Angela kissing. Ewww!

"Get a room! Theres four upstairs!" I shouted rolling my eyes and stomping outside. I grabbed one of the boxes with my name and walked back inside and stomped upstairs to my new room.

Placing the box on the floor I walked back downstairs and saw the moving truck coming in. All the big stuff were in place and the boxes of the little 'important things' as my dad said were coming in. Grabbing a few other of my boxes we stuffed in our Ram I walked and placed them upstairs.

I stared out the balcony window taking in the woods surrounding it.

"Zoe! Come down here and help with the boxes!" My dad yelled from downstairs snapping me out of my thoughts.

"Coming!" I yelled running down the marble stairs and out the door seeing a million boxes on the front yard. I almost tripped over one. I looked for boxes with my names on them,carrying them upstairs.

Unpacking took hours making me tired and fall to my bed. I still had unpacking to do.

I fell asleep automatically.
