Chapter 1
(About Twenty-Five Years Later)
"Chris, wake up, you don't want to miss your flight and have to stay here with us do you?"
"No father, I'll be out in a moment."
I jumped down from my hammock and got dressed. I walked out of my room and drank a glass of orange juice.
"Well, Chris, this is it, remember to send us a letter once you get to your uncle Gene's house."
"I promise."
"Well, I guess we'll see you in six months when we return to America." My mother said.
"Okay Mother."
"Bye." They both said together.
I waved and began walking toward the nearest town, which was half a mile away.
I watched the animals around. I suddenly saw a cheetah leap out of the Savannah grass and begin chasing a Thompson Gazelle. I pretend to race the Cheetah. I raced forward as fast as I could.
When I looked back at where the cheetah would be if I was keeping up, it was there. I stopped suddenly, but my body's momentum carried me through the air. I instinctively stuck my hand out and grabbed the branch of a tree. Then I spun around and let go of the tree. I launched myself towards a wall and instead of becoming a bloody smear on the wall, I stuck to it.
"What theā¦!" I yelled.
I jumped down from the wall and noticed I was at the town. I jumped down and pretended as though nothing had happened. I walked around the wall and sat on the bench waiting for the bus.
About a half an hour later the bus arrived and I got on. We rode to the largest town in the country. I got off the bus and walked over to a small airport that would take me to the largest airport on the continent of Africa.
When I arrived at the second airport I got on my plane. I was rather nervous because I was used to living in the middle of the Savannah because my parents monitored patterns in a certain animal species life span.
The plane took off and my ears popped. I adjusted to the conditions, tilted my chair back slightly, and fell asleep.
While I was asleep I had a peculiar dream. It consisted of multiple animals. It had animals from all around the world. It consisted of a Great White Shark, an African Elephant, a Chimpanzee, a Gray Wolf, a Bald Eagle, a Common Gray Spider, and a Cheetah. The animals were all in the same area. They were moving around in a black space. The animals suddenly converged into one spot and combined into a human. The human form turned around to face 'me.' The human was me.
