My dreams continue to be zombie/apocalypse/driving/shooting-related. I've been up for over twelve hours, so I can't really recall all that well, but I remember this part clearly: (red parts are funny parts where I was aware it was a dream without actually being aware) I was watching a film about this guy stuck at a supermarket. People were going crazy there, sorta zombie, but others were afraid of the zombies and REALLY going crazy. They had guns and they kept shooting everybody. Then, the guy ran a little and ended up on a calm part of the supermarket. Suddenly, everybody was normal and he realised he had been hallucinating the whole time. My dad, who was watching the film with me, I guess (I just heard his voice and knew he was next to me), said "they're just pretending to be normal to trick him" and sure enough, as soon as the guy took a deep breath, everything was pure chaos again. At this moment, I was there. I started running and I thought "well, this is a supermarket, I should take everything I'll need". I blinked and I already had a bag full of stuff. I remember thinking "I don't remember taking anything, but I'm sure I got important stuff" and I also had a car key with me. I ran to the parking lot and I used the alarm thing to find which car I had gotten. It was a cool jeep. I got in and the security guard of the parking lot somehow knew that wasn't my car. I realised I wasn't sure how to drive that, but then I thought "duh, this is a dream, I can totally do this" and... nope, lucidity is a luxury I cannot afford. The guard was in front of the car and I shrugged and started driving fast, asking myself why the hell the dude was worried about me stealing a car when there was zombie apocalypse going on. Seriously, security guard, priorities, okay? I drove away, as fast as possible, but I heard the cops around and I knew the idiot had warned the police. Again, I asked myself why the police would be worried about a stolen car in the middle of a damn apocalypse, but I guess they take their job very seriously in my dream. I realised it'd be too much hard work to drive away from the cops while also being careful with zombies, so I decided it was time to wake up. Why be lucid in a dream when you can just give up on the dream altogether, am I right?
(This is from September 21.) I awoke into the dream staring at sentences in a book as I was laying in a bed. I noticed that the words on the page were kinda shifting around and getting fuzzy, and I thought I must be dreaming. So I did the palm RC and became fully lucid when my finger went right through my hand. I stood up from the bed and surveyed my surroundings, and saw I was in a messy bedroom with hardwood floors and wallpaper with flower prints on it. There was a hallway to the left that was lit brighter than the room I was in, and on the wall to the right was a mirror. I got really excited when I saw the mirror because I remembered how I was able to use a dream mirror in my last lucid dream to successfully summon Afiel. First, I tried just calling out his name and willing him there, because I didn't want to be reliant on mirrors, but it didn't work so I stood in front of the mirror and saw this time that the wings on my back appeared on my reflection, however when I moved them up and down they didn't move in the reflection. I attempted to summon Afiel as I did last time by having him appear behind me in the mirror, but it would not work and I started getting upset. Then I tried a trick I'd read on the forums here where I shouted "Increase lucidity!" to make the dream more real. I yelled it about three times, and every time I would hit the wall with my palms while shouting it, and that caused a wave that looked similar to an aftershock wave to ripple across my surroundings and make the scene clearer and more vivid as it moved. I remember being super excited at adding this new trick to my lucid arsenal. But then I looked down that bright hall out of curiosity, and I saw a grey alien creature standing at the other end of the hall. I couldn't see its face, but I knew what it was, and I had chills up my spine. I backed away in fear and crawled into the bed, cowering with the covers placed between me and it, but then right when my terror peaked, Afiel popped in out of nowhere and did a running tackle at the alien and it disintegrated. I jumped out of the bed, absolutely ecstatic (mostly because the alien was gone but also to see Afiel) and ran over and hugged him. I think the lucidity yell made him feel more real, because I remember thinking how weird it was how solid he felt when we were hugging. With him now there, I felt free to test some other things, like trying to change the scene. I would close my eyes, float up into the air, and should "Teleport (name of place)!", but when I opened my eyes we were still in the bedroom. After a few tries, I opened my eyes a saw clear blue sky, but I also felt my body waking up so I grabbed my shirt and tried the lucidity shout again. It worked, but I was again back in the bedroom. Afiel suggested I couldn't teleport because I was using a single-person teleport and it would be impossible for me to go somewhere without him since we were tethered together in the scene. I gave it one more shot, grabbing Afiel and attempting to teleport us both into deep space. Immediately, there was dark blues with random points of light zipping by me, it looked a lot like that effect that plays when Sam leaps into another body in Quantum Leap... suddenly I saw galaxies appearing and disappearing, but I can't remember if Afiel was there with me. Before everything could stop zipping around and calm down, it all fell apart and I woke up.
