A storm was brewing tonight. Clouds and the accompanying thunder rolled across the African savannah, flattening the long grass.

Xander closed his eye contentedly and sighed as the cooling wind caressed his face. Thunder rumbled loudly, almost as if a voice was speaking.

You have forgotten who you are…

Xander snapped his eye open and stared in amazement at the clouds above his head. They were shaped in the form of a majestic lion with a great, flowing mane, which seemed to be looking down somewhere nearby.

Remember who you are…

Sensing movement in the corner of his eye, Xander shifted his attention from the clouds above to another lion in the distance, this one made of flesh and blood, running towards the now receding clouds. He watched as the lion first slowed, then stopped dejectedly. A moment later a baboon joined him. It looked like they were having a conversation.

Xander blinked and turned on his heel, heading back to where he had made camp. He absently put a hand to his stomach. He really needed to remember to lay off the goat cheese before bed. Vampires and demons he could deal with, but talking lions were something else!
