JORDAN SUMMERS: TEEN WEREWOLF
Chapter 2
Jordan woke up inside the little hole under what used to be a house. He was still holding his hand. Noah was wearing big boots when he stepped on his fingers.
Ron was awake too and has been since early morning. Jordan suspected he didnt even fall asleep last night. He was surprised that he even slept.
Ron sat on a peice of the roof. He looked out at the flat landscape of nothing but long broken peices of wood, some windows, and devasted people looking down at lost loved ones. Jordan wanted to do the same, but when he got up out of the hole his mother wasnt in the same spot.
He looked around trying to find her body but he couldnt find her. She was carried away by the tornado to another location that wasnt even worth searching for. He remembered the angry glance she shot at Noah before the Chandeleer fell. Now Noah was just sitting on the window they had looked out of the night before to see the tornado that devasted thousands.
Jordan didnt want to mention his mother, for it would ruin everyone in the family. No one was speaking. Each of them lost in their own thoughts. Each sitting on a different peice of their house. But Jordan was most concerned about Noah.
"You just had to mess with me at such a time didnt you?" Jordan said. Breaking the silence.
Noah just inhaled deeply and said nothing.
"If you didnt do that, Mother would still be here, and my hand wouldn't be in such the pain that it is"
"I dont give a crap about your hand"
Jordan sat there a long time. Deciding carefully what to say without disturbing everyone. Not just Noah.
"You...killed mother"
Noah looked at him for the first time in the conversation.
"YOU are the one who had to act like a two year old and fall to the ground! Oh im Jordan! A little boy whos cwying and wont do anything" As he said this he made a bunch of faces.
Jordan was now aggrevated. Noah was trying to make it seem like he did it right in front of dad.
"Alright both of you stop right now. None of us did anything to your mother. Im not gonna blame the Chandeleer, Im got gonna blame the tornado, Im not gonna blame Noah, and im NOT gonna blame Jordan! Did i make myself clear?"
"Yes father" Jordan mumbled.
Noah said nothing and kicked a rock.
Noah's expression suddenly changed and the look on his face became quite sad. He remembered back to when it was just him and his mom. Then she found Ron, then came Jordan. Noah always says his life went wrong the minute Jordan entered the world. Ron always used to tell the story of when Wanda first brought home infant Jordan, Noah slapped him.
There was a long silence.
"Well boys i know we had quite the night, but-"
"Quite the night?...Quite the Night?! That night ruined my life!" Noah exclaimed.
"I thought that was the night i was born get cher facts right" Jordan spat back.
"Boys!"
They went silent.
"I was listening to the radio . I found it this moring and since it was that case all these years it survived the Tornado. And i went to that one channel we never went on before. It said theres this nice location North of here that doesnt have any natural disasters besides severe Thunderstorms. Thats the farthest it goes. They made an auction for this large mannor on a hill. I decided to try the auction with the money i brought with me underground. And i won it"
"So were living there?!" Noah said getting up with a worried look on his face.
"Were else can we go, Noah? The store was destroyed, the house was destroyed, Neighbors have already moved elsewere. Theres no food and no shelter here. And this wont ever have any chances of happening again where we are going."
Jordan sat for a second. He thought of his mom and suddenly felt nautious and dropped to the ground holding his head.
"Whats wrong Jordan?" Ron asked walking over to him.
Jordan didnt answer and felt a sharp pain on the side of head. He felt his ear which felt a bit bigger.
Ron stared at him worried.
Jordan stood up and took his mother off his mind and soon his ear felt normal again. But after that he heard a ghostly voice saying "Dont fight it, Dont fight it"
Jordan was confused and didnt know what to do. The sun shined in his eyes and he looked away. He had no understanding of what was going on.
"How are we going to get there dad" Asked Noah who had no care of what was happening to Jordan.
"We have to walk i suppose. I can't find the car!"
Ron picked up Jordan and began to walk north. As he walked he looked no direction but forward. Out into the flat desert-like landscape. Noah got up and carried his broken MP3 player in his pocket and walked along as well. And so began the harsh journey of getting to Duskburgh
