I stirred in my slumber. I could feel myself awakening from my deep sleep. My nostrils flared as my forked tongue flicked between my teeth. The air felt alive. Electricity cracked in the air surrounding me. I slowly uncurled my body, streatching my forelegs. Slowly, on all fours I moved towards the opening of the cave.
Outiside, birds twittered in the trees and squirrels scampered in the undergrowth. This place definitely looked different from the last destination. The woods were thin and made mostly of pine trees. I set a claw out of the cave and onto the soft earth. Slowly inching the rest of the way out of the cave, I rose to my full height. Standing on my back legs I let out a roar. A roar so loud it silenced the entire forest. The beast had awakened.
The day dragged on. I roamed the forest scaring every woodland creature into silence. Suddenly my head snapped up, each and every muscle quivering in anticipation. I felt a strong pull away from the forest. The sky slowly darkened as the pull became stronger. I glanced at the sky, every scale standing on end. The sun was slowly disappearing behind the dark face of the moon. My tongue flicked out, scenting the air. A strong scent of pig wafted in my direction along with the sweet smell of humans. I followed the pull of the eclips towards the human scent. I heard laughing and yelling as I approached a picket fence. It was a party. People looked up at the sky through strange glasses, mouths hanging open in awe. I used to be a human once. Then something like me ruined my perfect life and dreams I had. I took a deep breath and raised myself to my full height. Tonight, I was going to have a feast.
