   Luna, short for Lunar. That's my name, yes you heard it right LUNA. My mother loves the name, but i, like many others, despise the name. No, i don't get made fun of, and no i don't despise it because i'm an "angry teen". I despise the name because it isn't who i am or who i want to be. Had my mom possibly named me Parker, or Lillian, i wouldn't be where i am today.

  My mom named me Luna for one reason, i was born on a lunar eclipse. Some people say it's cool, some say its beautifully strange, but me? Oh, i say its a whole fucking curse.

  There's strange abilities to a girl like me, nothing anyone would expect. 

  "I can explain." i keep my voice soft, steady, and slow. "Luna, what's going on with you? You've been so strange lately..it's almost like you're possessed." The fear in his voice, the tremble of his body when he asks what's happening, its almost frightening to me.

  "Do you want an honest answer, or a fake one?" Jasper's eyes tremble, and he jumps at the sound of my voice, i have never seen him so frightened of me. "Honest," he speaks. 

  I prepare myself for the honesty of what i have to tell, or what I've needed to tell him for months now. "There really is no easy way to put this without me sounding crazy," I pause for a breath hoping to ease my own anxiety, "I have this thing, and i can't control when it happens, i can't control how it happens, and i don't even know how it happens." He looks at me confused, frantic, but most importantly i can tell he's unsure about me.

  "Yeah?" his stuttering voice responds. "I have these powers, but they're not powers Jas, i need you to know that. It's not something i can play with, it's not something i can exactly control." He shakes his head in disbelief, "What are they Luna Mae, tell me now and tell me everything."

"I can see the un-dead. I see ghosts, and i see demons. I see the evil that lurks this world. I can read minds, like right now you're scared, anxious, and i know you have a knife behind your back thinking that if i possibly do to you what i just did to your father, you'll try and slaughter me first." I take a deep breath, letting out a short sigh of relief. 

  I can only be relieved for so long before i have to finish what i started. "How much do you know then?" Jasper says, panting. "I know a lot, i know that the earth isn't all it's cracked up to be. I see angels everywhere, but for some reason there is none in this room with us, isn't that correct Jasper?" 

  Jasper nods his head. I've confirmed all that i need to know now.

  "You see, Jasper. I find it funny, that you would nod your head to that question. You know, the one about the angels in the room," his eyes begin to look concerned. "The things we see as demons, are desires we keep in our uttermost top shelf of our mind." 

  I bring myself to my feet, and i dust my hands off on my pants.

  "How much do i know Jasper?" A small chuckle escapes my mouth as i look down upon it, "The most i know right now sweetie, is that you play a fucking horrible Jasper."

   A wide grin spreads across the monsters face, Jasper being crumpled into pieces as Satan's helper appears before my eyes. Just another day for me, Luna Mae.

"Charming how you think you could ever-" it's words stopped suddenly by my knife.

 "Have a blessed day, bitch." My voice mutters these words to the creature. While retrieving my knife from the gut of a demon himself, his cold corps falls to the ground and becomes nothing more than ash. 

 I, Luna Mae Winchester, prevent the world from evil.
