memorable

7-15-12 (non-lucid): I was driving through a forest road and went past a few buildings. I noticed they were all closed, but thought nothing strange of it; after all, it was a road that people scarcely traveled on. I continued on driving and the road ended when I reached a mansion. It was a bit strange looking, but I took no notice and got out of the car. I went inside; it was very old, but even though it hadn’t been used for two hundred years it looked to be in pristine condition, even the furniture, it looked like it had come from the 1800’s. There was some dust but not as much as I had expected and I got this sort of creeped out feeling. But it was my new house, and not to mention a mansion, so it was normal to be creeped out. So I talked to a few people and went up to the top floor and found a room where there was a note on a bed and writing and strange drawings on the wall. The writing on the wall said “Get out” and “Madness.” I was a bit freaked out by this and picked up the note. I don’t remember exactly what was written on it, but I remember it saying that the girl who wrote this, her sister died, I’m not sure from what though, maybe sickness. Anyway, and she rambles on after that the house wasn’t the same, and how she started seeing things and how some things got displaced and how in the end everyone but her was killed by some strange woman, she described the woman, and said something about running or there’s no hope of turning back. I set the note down a little upset and paid attention to the drawings. There were monsters and weird shadows drawn. I took the drawings down and threw them in the trash and looked at the second bed near the window. I sat on it for a moment and looked outside. I saw an unused garden and started out into a forest of willows and I thought for a moment and looked at the bed. It seemed a bit odd and I realized this was where the girl’s sister had died. There was still some sort of impression on it. I stood up and saw a shadow run past the threshold. I went out into the hallway and gripped the railing, and something just clicked. The woman who sold me the house; It was the same woman who had killed her family. My parents had come to visit the house with me and I rushed down the stairs and I heard some sort of sound and looked over and saw a soda can and it just disappeared and the world felt like it was spinning and I ran as fast as I could and saw something out of the corner of my eye and heard laughing. I stumbled, got back up and saw a door. I ran towards it, and when I reached for the doorknob it became just another hallway and I laughed with the realization I was becoming mad, just like the girl in the letter. I kept running and stumbling. I reached the kitchen and saw the realtor woman speaking to my parents and pointing out the ovens to them. I ran up to them and told them it was very nice and everything but I had business to attend to. They told me to have fun and left and the woman glared at me and reached for something and I woke up.

6-6-12 (non-lucid/lucid): I was spending a night at a distant friend’s house. I slept on the couch, and T. slept in the spare bedroom upstairs. No big event happened that night so I slept and in the morning I saw the family rushing around picking up random items. Of course I realized something was wrong so I got up and asked and someone said that there was some sort of disease going around and it was killing people and these people started coming back, etc. And then I got the bad news, my friend was taking their family and leaving me and T. behind and abruptly left and I was left sitting there. I went upstairs thinking maybe T. woke up already so we could get a head start. Nope, he was still asleep, even through all that commotion. I woke him up told him what happened and that my friend left us for dead. I went back downstairs and to the basement where I found an axe, crowbar, knife and a few other things. I took the knife and I brought the axe up to T. We left shortly after; agreeing that staying at the house wasn’t a good idea. We went outside and there were zombies everywhere, luckily they could only walk, and not very fast either. So, wanting to converse energy we walked at a leisurely pace. We definitely took the zombie apocalypse seriously. More zombies were coming our way so we started running and I knifed one or two, and I called my mother and she said she had the Escalade (a big car, not quite a van.) We kept walking and she came by and picked us up and T. had to pick his brothers up from the school. We got there and there was an attack, but the zombies were neutralized, so it was safe. We all went in and T. and I went to go see D.J. who was talking to some other people. I heard some of the teachers talking about what happened and I started to follow, but they stopped talking so I tried becoming invisible and I asked D.J. who was looking right at me, but he said I was invisible, and I realized I was dreaming, but I wanted to go along with the storyline anyway, and occasionally reminded myself I was dreaming. We all went into a room and I took charge of the situation. I was talking about battle plans and thought about doing Task of the Year stuff and said “I may go see the Titanic sink, I don’t know yet.” That got a lot of confused looks until I explained it was Task of the Year stuff, and then I saw a mirror and I went up to it and stuck my head through and I saw a dark tunnel on the other side and it was made out of the same thing as the mirror. So I completed that and I soon lost lucidity. We went to a large carpeted room and we all spent the night there. I got up in the morning and went down to the cafeteria to eat breakfast, which consisted of a cupcake, and cereal (which was mostly marshmallows and only a little bit of cereal.) Then I heard Rajin speaking and the scene switched to a town square, and Rajin was there. It was a little bit after the apocalypse and, hardly any zombies anymore and it started to rain. I ran into a store nearby got a huge umbrella and went back out and opened it. Rajin ran up and went under it with me and we both waited for the rain to stop and then I woke up

5-22-12 (non-lucid) I was in the lobby of a hospital, and I was with T. and two other people and the other couple pushed a button for the elevator and I went to get on but T. stopped me and said it wasn’t a good idea, and the hospital was abandoned and haunted, very, very haunted. So, there I was with T. and ironically telling him that I better not get any nightmares. Anyway, so he started walking towards a hallway and I insisted on taking the elevator, I didn’t really feel like getting killed, so I grabbed his wrist and dragged him to a different elevator, pressed the button and waited until the elevator door opened and I ran inside and without actually thinking about it I pressed the top button. The elevator sped up and T. was pressing multiple buttons trying to get it to stop…it wasn’t. I held onto T. and the elevator opened and we slowly stepped out and I could feel my heart beating faster and I looked to my left and saw a shadow dart across and I decided to go forward, instead of left. As we walked down the hall I could hear screams and things stare at us and reach out and I was thinking to myself “I can’t do this! I’ve only walked a few steps and I’m already having a panic attack and there’s things out there that wants to kill us.” But I kept walking and held T.’s hand and I managed to get to the end of the hallway, maybe a bit further, and woke up.

1-21-12 (non-lucid/lucid) I was in a giant cave, and waking in a deep ravine. The stone was a dark grey and looked like there was water running down it. Then further ahead I noticed a sudden drop into the darkness below. I couldn't see the bottom since there was mist, which made me more than a bit nervous. Without knowing exactly what I was doing I reached out my hand and a platform appeared, I glided over to it, but it wasn't enough to get me onto the platform, just the side of it, I tried scrambling up the side, but it seemed to be made of some sort of soft rock, like graphite, after I used claws and kicked at the rock with my legs I managed to heave myself onto the platform. I got over to the other side and got to my home. It was in a guild I had apparently left and hadn't been seen there for a while. The only thing I remember from being gone from the guild was a home far away from the guild at another part of the cave system. I tread in and found my old home. I saw that pretty much the whole town coming to visit so I ran into my house and ran through a series of doors until I suddenly realized I was dreaming and before I went through the next door I thought of a ballroom. Then I opened the door and immediately looked to my right. Rajin stood next to a railing to the right, and it was my DG this time, not a random, DC. I looked at the rest of the ballroom, which was beautiful. The walls and ceiling were a shining white color and so were the railings and stairs. On the other side was another platform and door. The floor on the main area was a checkerboard pattern, black and white and the dancing area was burgundy color velvet. I looked at Rajin. He was wearing a Victorian looking suit and a bright red shirt underneath it. I barely caught a faint smile. I walked up to him and put my hand on his chest and kissed him. I tasted blood and vanilla and my dream started fading, so I looked at my hands and clapped, to bring the dream back. He wanted to dance, but I told him I didn’t want to until I found my dress. I ran over to the other side of the door and walked into a very small cylinder, like room, and Rajin told me to improvise so I created a staircase. I walked up to the top and there was a sudden drop. He told me to jump. I trusted him and jumped and as I jumped the dream changed and I hit the ground and felt a snap in my neck. I stood up and righted my neck, I heard a few cracks, but felt nothing. Rajin jumped down and landed on his feet, that smug bastard. Then I walked out into the sun. It’s the first time I can ever remember seeing the sun in my dreams. It was beautiful. The sky wasn’t overly bright, but not too dark, like right when the sun is starting to go down and I was in a wheat field. Maybe he meant for me to see this the whole time. So, being joyful of seeing the sun the first time in dreams I spun around and started running and spinning some more and skipping and I got farther and farther away from Rajin and I woke up.
