X-Factor (DEILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

After waking up from my previous dream, I gave it another go. This time it was incredibly easy to go straight back in. I remembered a technique I had used in a previous WILD attempt, where I imagined my dream body rhythmically pressing buttons. I did this again, and a dream formed up around me in a few seconds.

I felt a real sense of "entering the matrix", where I was lost for a fraction of a second, then zoom I was in. I had arrived in my friend's house after a night out. We went into the front porch and were greeted by my friend's mum. I said, "Hey, how's it going?" to her, and she replied, "Not bad, John, not bad." With that she turned around and walked into the living room, where my friend's family were watching the X-Factor. God I hate the X-Factor... Like before, I wanted to do something outrageous, but I was scared to, in case this was real life. I don't know my friend's family well at all, and I think it might have been my nervousness that stopped me trying to bust through a wall or something. I thought, "If this is real life, I will look like a proper dick if I try anything!" I leant over the settee to look at the TV, and experienced a false awakening.

EDIT: The previous paragraph was curiously precognitive. That exact situation happened in real life a couple of days later. I had never been at that friend's house after a night out before, so it was quite a coincidence! No doubt my mind was just simulating a possible scenario which, if I thought about it at the time, was quite likely to come true.

This was my first proper false awakening where I was in my own house and I actually got up out of bed to test if I was awake. I'm not sure if I should do this section in dream colour or lucid colour, it was something in-between. I threw my bedclothes off me and got up. Looking down at my hands, I was surprised to find there were actually the correct number of fingers on each! This really confused me, as I was pretty sure I was still asleep (or maybe sleepwalking!). Everything was blurry and the room started spinning slowly. I became very dizzy and stumbled around the room bumping into walls and my TV- but staying on my feet. -This is how I know for sure it was a false awakening; if I was stubling around my room I would most certainly have hit the deck because half my floorspace is covered in piles of clothes and unpacked suitcases! These were absent at the time, but there when I woke up for real. I think I fell back into a normal dream.

This was my first intentional lucid dream:

I have no idea how this started off!lol. I was walking up a flight of stairs, the walls were purple with very thin, vertical, yellow stripes. This seemed very strange to me Out of habit I grabbed my nose and tried to breath. "Success," I thought to myself. I almost got too excited and lost it, but kept my cool. I looked at my hands and said firmly, "Stabalize lucidity now!" I was skeptical, but it worked. Everything was much sharper. I stepped down the stairs,into a very small livingroom/dining room.(it had a big table and a couch)I stepped outside, into my own front yard. I gathered myself mentally, focused and took to the skys! I was on a mission to find a specific person, to do things I won't mention.I searched, with no avail, then doubled back to the house I started in. I sat in the yard(it was about twilight) admiring the detailed sky. A few cars drove by and I flagged down one of the drivers. I told, NOT ASKED, him to give me a ride to Pizza Pipeline. On the way there, in the back seat, I discovered I could make small torches of fire with my hands.There was no one in the passenger seat, I have no idea why I sat in the back.During the car ride I apeared to be in a NewYork-ish city. As I got out of the car I noticed it was now about mid-day. I walked inside, and without ordering, began eating my delicious dream pizza. I closed my eyes in delight as I ate this miraculous concoction of my mind and when I opened them up, I was in my bed. I checked to see if it was false awakening (it wasn't), then went to bed.

My first LD and my first DJ! Hope you guys like it!

"There's no time!" the man insisted, "The Ascendentae will answer all your questions, but you have to come with me! It is no longer safe here!" The man opened a portal and I followed him through…

On the other side of the portal I was in what looked like a temple. I felt the dream was slipping. I was about to wake up, but I wasn't done there… so I didn't want the dream to end yet. I repeated what I had done last night, using Allura's method to dilate time. I focused on the 12 hour clock, then morphed it into a 24 hour clock… then to a 48 hour clock… and I felt the dream stabilize. I looked around again. The man who had come to help me with the goons was standing there looking at me strangely.

"Come," he said to me, "The Ascendantae awaits." He turned and walked away.

I followed the man as he walked through the halls. He knocked on a large door at the end of the hall. Someone on the other side said we should enter. The man I was with opened the door and we both went into the room. There was a man sitting on the other side of a desk looking at us as we entered. The man referred to the man who had brought me as Salus, and said he could go now. Salus turned and left the room, closing the door behind him.

I'd had a million questions I'd been wanting to ask, but now I didn't seem to be able to manage any of them. The man behind the desk, the Ascendantae, stood up and came around the desk. He looked at me closely as if evaluating me or something… I didn't like that much. Something about him reminded me of Sean Connery…

I wanted to ask what he was looking at, but he started speaking before I got a chance to. He said Salus had already told him about finding me. He said Salus had also told him about the everto finding me. He said that was not a good sign. He said that if the everto had started looking for their… then he trailed off. He paused and then said he was sure I wanted some answers. He said all the answers I wanted awaited me at the end of the negotium.

"At the end of the what?" I asked, having no idea what this negotium could be. He said it was a simple task. All I would have to do was go to the end of a passage and retrieve a book. A special book that, if I was who they believed me to be, would be able to retrieve. And I was the only one who could retrieve it. That all sounded really strange to me… The man pulled a hidden lever on the desk. A section of the floor slid aside and there was a stairway down into darkness below. The Ascendantae said that the answers awaited at the end of that passage. I looked down the passage into the darkness. I wondered what might await down there… I wasn't sure what I was going to do… but I figured I would not know what was going on if I didn't go down there.

I was about to go down the stairs when the door to the office was flung open. There were a bunch of people in the door… Templars! Wtf? My full lucidity came rushing back to me as I let myself get out of character… There weren't supposed to be Templars attacking here… the Ascendantae was also perplexed. Of course he was a DC I had made for the game… But he was programmed to respond. He went over towards the Templars. He demanded to know the meaning of this intrusion. I told him those were the everto, so he might want to go down the passage himself to escape. He didn't leave, instead he pulled out a rather fancy looking glowing sword and attacked the Templars. One of the Templars hit him with a blast of energy, and since he was a DC that wasn't even intended to fight, the Ascendentae disappeared. I was prepared to fight the Templars now. I was more focused on them, so the dream set I had created fell apart around me. It turned out I was now on the moon.

One of the Templars came towards me and seemed pleased to see me… wtf? He came over and shook my hand with one of his hands and said it was good to have me on their side. What? I asked him if he was on crack… He looked at me strangely and then laughed. He tried to lead me back to the others as a friend would do. I pushed his hand off of me. I asked what he wanted, intruding on my dream… He said it was time that we got down to business. I said I didn't have any business with him… He said if I could just convince MoSh to join us… I repeated that there is no 'us' going on here… He looked at me strangely. He said the joke had gotten old. I said I wasn't joking about anything. These guys really thought I would be working with them!

I asked him what would make him think I had joined their side. He said I had clearly accepted the dark energy… I told him that doesn't mean anything… unless the goals of controlling people by force that and the rest of the Templars were aiming for had drastically changed there was no way I would ever be helping them with it. He looked at me strangely. He didn't seem to be getting the point. I told him to go away and let me finish my dream in peace. The one who had been talking to me looked over at the other Templars. He didn't seem to know what to say now. I told him we had found a good balance… they don't interfere with my dreams, and I don't kick their asses on sight. So unless there was something else that didn't involve me joining them, please go away and let me finish my dream. The Templar closest to me grabbed my arm and said I would be going with him. I said no, I would not, so he would have one more chance to just leave in peace… Instead he tried to pull me with him. I shook him off and opened a vortex portal that dumped all of them someplace around Pluto…

I went to focus on restoring my dream world and continuing my video game development dream. Before I even had a chance to get the dream realm reformed, however, there was another visitor. This one attacked me on sight, throwing spears of light down at me. There were explosions all around me as I jumped out of the way of the attack, getting quite annoyed at my dream being interrupted yet again. I looked to get a closer look at the attacker, and I saw he looked like an angel of some kind… he didn't even pause in his attack, though, throwing another wave of glowing spears in my direction. I used Whiplash and sent the energy spears right back at him. He avoided the attack and landed on the ground not far from me. I asked him what he thought he was doing. He said he does not talk to demons. He continued attacking me. A whirlwind of golden light erupted around me, mixed with fire. This guy was really annoying… This attack was easily countered with a small wave of dark energy that neutralized the attack. The angel was already throwing more light spears at me, I jumped out of the way and hit him with a bolt of lightning by using Battery. Electricity didn't seem to hurt him… I tried a bolt of lightning made of dark energy… that did hurt him. It knocked him backwards. I told him he should get a better definition of what a demon is before attacking random people, then used a vortex portal to send him where I had sent the Templars. Maybe all of them would have some fun together.

Ok… now finally to get back to my video game dream… But the dream was slipping again. I focused on doing another time dilation. The clock with the 12 hours, changing into the clock with 24 hours, changing into the clock with 48 hours… but it didn't seem to be helping this time. The dream slipped away and I woke.

Apparently, psychopaths are drawn to the martial arts.

I'm in the middle of a karate class. I don't know the instructor, and I think I'm new to this dojo. The students are preparing for an upcoming tournament, concentrating especially on their kata. One man is leading a bunch of other students in a kata, but I notice that he moves with a limp.

The head sensei, an old man, shows up beside me. He explains that it was he himself who crippled the other man. You see, he explains to me, this man was my student at the time. Apparently, the other man was using what he learned in martial arts to abuse women he was in relationships with over the years, and the head sensei put a stop to it. The other man's punishment was that he would no longer be able to reach his full potential as a martial artist.

I'm talking with some of the other students, when I remember I have to check something. I sit down on the grass with my laptop. Firefox is already open, and I start to type something. Or maybe I'm clicking the Stumble button, I don't really remember.



A girl from high school shows up and sits on my lap, taking the computer. I look over her shoulder as she types something in.

I'm playing a video game that's a cross between Saint's Row 2 and Assassin's Creed 2. Why all the sequels?

I tell my brother about a bug in the game. I load my save game and see my character collapse and die. The game reloads, in a different place. I collapse and die. Cue loading screens to a bunch of different characters and places. Collapse and die, collapse and die, collapse and die.

Finally, we see a cutscene. An old woman is the queen of the land; she's bedridden and giving orders to messengers. Apparently, she was my character's mom at one point, only I keep dying and getting reincarnated, so I've been missing for the last thirty years.

"Change in next music and chocolate."

...what?

Lucid moment. I look at my right hand and notice that the three little fingers are bent, but it feels like two of them are, and the other three are extended. Wait a minute. I glance up and look around, but the dream is already over.

Sensei. Scare Factor: 2.

I don't remember the beginning of this dream - its probably the longest one I've had for a while. What I do remember though, are small fragments. It started while I was playing a video game. I thought that this game was rubish because I was driving a car in a city, and the road was made of sqares that moved down when I drove on them, so i kept crashing. After this, I remember watching a war in the city between two robot armies and then they jioned together to fight some other robots that appeared. The next thing I rememeber is being in a building with two or three people in a different city. The city was infested with zombies but i dont remember what we had to do in the building. Anyway I sent a scout helicopter (a mini rc one) to do something (cant remember what) but then a monster/zombie saw it and soon there were loads coming towards the building. I wasn't scared because I knew that we had enough machine guns to stop them. After that I remember going into a zombie infested shopping centre/mall, but the zombies didnt attack if we didnt disturb them. I went into a shop that sold antiques with lots of people inside, and met one of the twins from skins (I dont know which one). She said she lost her sister and naomi so I said i'd help her because it was better than just staying in the shop bored. Then someone shot their gun (i think it was me) and the zombies started to run towards the shop. I pulled down the meshes (things they pull down when they close the shop) but there was a gap where there was no mesh to pull down (the meshes were weird because they wernt flat, they were shaped like tall hill-like things, that are hard to explain). Everyone in the shop started shooting them so they didnt get in. After that we left the mall, then the next thing i remember is seeing lots of zombies escaping the mall, with lots of soldiers shooting them. I tries to help by shooting, but my pen (that was a gun in the dream) didnt workbecause it was a ball-point pen and the soldiers were angry at me because they thought i was have shot the because i was behind them and the zombies were directly in front of them. After that I remember being in an allyway with the twin from skins and then a bunch of bikers were there but I dont remember the rest. I then remember running out of a garden because a REALLY fat zombie (she was shaped like a ball) was chasig after us and was getting even more angry becuase we were using her trampoline to jump over the fence, and she didn't like that (or she didnt like us touching the netting around it). I then remember going back into the fat zombies house, and she had lost weight, and turned to normal. I then said sorry to her for the trampoline thing. I became lucid here and walked around her house, rubbing my hands trying to stay lucid. After that I came out of lucidity and did something else that I can't remember but it might have been something I wrote already because i'm not even sure if its in the right order :S.

DREAMNONDREAMSCENEDESCRIPTIONLUCID

I am not writing my dreams in order today (I had SO MANY), so you can read more about the... guy in my next dream.

I started out in my house. I may have thought about dreaming, and then realized that I was in a dream! I quickly decided that I want to see that guy from my previous dream. He was so mysterious...hehe! So, I quickly got out of the house through my sliding glass door, and FLEW, very easily in fact, arms out in front of me. At first, it looked like it really does near my house, the houses across from my backyard, but then I saw a dirt road and some buidings...it looked old fashioned! Once I got to a certain height, I decided I wanted to start to descend. Usually the opposite happens to me, but I felt like if I wouldn't force myself to stop then go down, I'd keep goin up! So, I start to descend, right above the power line that was under me. When I get down, I automatically see this guy, like a policeman or something. I tell him that I want to find this guy from my previous dream, and that I am the dreamer, this is my dream, so he has to do what I say. He agrees, and I tell him I want everyone to help. Then, I see all of the townspeople running around rambunctsly in all directions .

Scene change, I am now in this largeish building, but still in the same odd town. I am still lucid and all, and I see this girl that I know for real. I start talkin to her, and tell her about the guy that I'm looking for. I tell her that he is this guy that I didn't pay much attention to at first. He is just in this car wearing this motorcyle-y sports outfit...(like you'd see them wear when they are like dirtbiking or something .). Anyway, he passes me once before in the dream, and he bobbed his head and winked at me, through his cool sunglasses. Then, again he did this, but then I noticed him more, because, when he passed me, he looked again, then so did his 3 buddies in the back seat. But this is where I noticed him, he looked again, but this time he took off his sunglasses *swoon*. He did not look how I expected him to.

So, this part of the building is like a restaraunt. I see a poster, and it says Swords 3, in the Sims 3 writing . I ask her about it, and she said that it has more to do with potions then sims 3. We continue to walk, and I wake up .

I was in a horse-drawn buggy. I wondered why I was in a buggy, since I had never even seen one...Before I even did a RC, I knew I was dreaming. I got so excited that I woke up.

Note: Tonight I was successful in my WILD for the second night in a row! I send a big out to Mzzkc from the Dreamviews lucid dreaming site! One more in a row, and I think I can officially call my dry spell over! So my goals today started out with stopping into MoSh's inner world and seeing how Asuka is doing, MoSh has said she was still sick. The level of light energy may be too high and could be negatively affecting Asuka. So the goal there was to restore balance… I meditated with my light / sound machine and slipped into a WILD…

I was inside MoSh's inner world. It was very bright and sunny there. It seemed a bit too bright… I went over to the house and knocked, MoSh let me in. I went inside and looked around. It was almost as bright inside as it had been outside. I wondered where Asuka was. I asked MoSh how she was doing. MoSh said she was not feeling well, so she was in bed… resting. He said she didn't seem to be able to sleep, but she was resting. I followed MoSh to find Asuka in a bedroom on the second floor.

Asuka was lying in bed, looking a bit ill. She was quite pale, and she also looked like she wanted to get up. She said she had to get up and do something. MoSh asked how she was feeling. She seemed to get angry suddenly and said she was fine, it was positive energy and thus you can never have too much of it, so MoSh should stop giving her a hard time about it. She picked up a light energy shard off of the table beside her bed. She said there was no way anyone who used dark energy was going to get anywhere near her now, or anywhere near MoSh's inner world for that matter. She looked over and saw me. She told me to get out of there before that shit I've been trying to use gets out and contaminates MoSh's inner world. She said if I am going to play with shit, I should do it somewhere that is not in MoSh's inner world. I wanted to get her to be rational… but that wasn't looking likely…

Ok… the entire place was over-saturated with light energy. I wondered what to do about that… most of my spells are focused on eliminating excess dark energy, not to eliminate excess light energy… since that's not an issue I have come across as far as I remember… Well, the first thing seemed to be to remove some of the sources of light energy. And there were lots of those. I went around MoSh's house and gathered up a lot of the sources of light energy. I was thinking I had taken a lot of them out previously, and now there were so many more… I wondered if Asuka was still collecting them or if she'd had a stash hidden away somewhere in MoSh's inner world… I wasn't sure. I collected most of the sources of light energy and telepathically contacted Q to take them back to where they were needed. Not only did Asuka gathering so many light energy sources cause there to be too much light energy in MoSh's inner world, it could be setting the locations she took the energy sources from out of balance. Q appeared, and he took the sources of light energy and disappeared.

Now I looked around and there was still an excessive amount of light energy in there. It would take quite a while for all of that to disperse… I thought one of the quickest ways to lower the level of light energy would be to neutralize some of it… and that could be done with a bit of dark energy? Letting the two mix in a controlled manner, the two should neutralize each other… I didn't want to let a bunch of dark energy out into MoSh's inner world, though… I ran a small test. I created a small ball of dark energy in my hand and held it out. It disappeared as quickly as an ice cube melting in the July sun in southern Arizona… it just melted away. So the neutralizing could work… and as long as I was careful about it… so I created some more of the energy balls and let them melt away in the brightness of the excessive light energy… slowly it started to have an effect, making the overly brightness of the area fade back towards normal. I kept doing that until the lighting in the area both outside and inside the house was just slightly brighter than I am used to seeing it. A little extra light energy wouldn't hurt anything.

I went back to where Asuka was. She seemed to be glowing with light energy. I did a scan of her energy. Her energy aura was practically blinding… It looked like an energy level more appropriate for Q, who is a being made entirely of light energy. This was not natural for Asuka. Asuka had calmed down and was sitting on the couch in the living room now. I asked how she was feeling. She said not too great… she said she kind of felt like she was on fire. I said it might help if she was to expend some of her light energy… use it on something. Anything. She said she couldn't. She said she couldn't focus it, none of it wanted to cooperate. There had to be some way to get rid of it… The same way as I had neutralized the excess light energy in the surrounding environment? Maybe… but I didn't want to hurt Asuka by accident… But how else? I told Asuka I was going to try to help her. She said ok. I took hold of her hand and let a small amount of dark energy go into her… She immediately got upset at that, trying to pull away and throwing out a few choice words at me… MoSh was looking at me, seeming unsure of what to do… Asuka was still fighting me, struggling to get away, yelling at MoSh to help her, I had clearly gone mad… I kept a close watch on her energy, constantly scanning… the dark energy wasn't getting very far… it was being neutralized almost instantly as it went in… Asuka slowly began to resist less, she seemed tired. I kept scanning and adding tiny amounts of dark energy until her aura was about the brightness it was supposed to be, perhaps a bit brighter.

In spite of having plenty of energy, Asuka looked really tired. I figured it was basically a crash after having been wired on light energy. I scanned her very closely and saw no sign of dark energy inside her… she was clean. MoSh asked if Asuka was ok… he asked what I had done to her… I said I had just neutralized the excess light energy in her, and she would probably rest for a while since there had been a sudden decrease in her energy level. I told him she would need a bit of time to re-adjust to having her normal energy level, sort of like when a person feels neutral, gets high, then comes back down to neutral, after coming back down to neutral that can feel kind of crappy until they get re-adjusted. I said to say Asuka had been high was an understatement… she had been so high she would have been floating in some other galaxy… but she looked like she would be ok now.

MoSh helped Asuka back upstairs to the bedroom and into bed. He came back down shortly. He seemed a bit annoyed. He said Asuka had told him I had been infecting her with dark energy. He asked if I might have been doing that by accident while trying to stabilize her energy, because he had been under the impression I was in control of that. I hesitated, then just told the truth about how I had neutralized the excess light energy in her… He did not seem too thrilled about that… he asked if there was any chance she would be infected with the stuff… I said no, she had been so high on light energy that any dark energy had been immediately neutralized. I said I had scanned her when I was done, and there had not been any trace of dark energy left in her, only light, and her light energy was just slightly above what it normally was because I didn't want to take a chance on leaving it too low. MoSh stood there looking at me for a couple more minutes. He didn't seem to know what to think of that method of healing… Apparently he finally decided to accept it, because he changed the subject.

MoSh now said that we could go view a section of a Carlos Castaneda book where Carlos was talking to don Juan… we had agreed to that as a goal on the night before… but I felt the dream was going to end soon. I told MoSh that. MoSh said it was a good chance to use time dilation. I wondered what type to use… I wondered what would happen if both of us used it… what if we dilated time in different ways… like he set it to 4 dream hours for each hour IWL and I did it for 2 dream hours.. that seemed like it could cause a problem… but what if one of use used it and the other didn't… would it work for both of us? Or would he be going at 4 dream hours for each hour IWL while I was still on a one to one relation… I was confusing myself… MoSh was already using time dilation… He had his hand on the ground and was focusing on that at the same time as he was counting, he was apparently using Walms' method. I would just have to see what happened…

Note: I am sure the dream continued after here, but it continued with a high degree of disorientation on my part, maybe partly due to the difference in time dilation… so I'm sure the dream continued, but all of my memories from that point on were too vague to post.

I was walking on some rooftops under the moonlight. It was very wet outside, like the rain was previously falling. I done reality check and it succeeded : I became lucid. I stopped for a moment and looked around me. I noticed that the moon was red and the clouds were around it. I tried to make strong wind currents and make a thunderstorm but I failed. I though I should do something else so I decided to break some reflectors with telekinetic but I failed too. I don't remember what happened next.

I am in front of supermarket. I suddenly took off the ground. While in mid-air I noticed that something is odd and I done a reality check. It succeeded. I looked at my right hand and I had 7 fingers. At the moment I realized that I was dreaming I fell down from the air. I noticed that weather was very sunny. I wanted to breath fire, but instead some green liquid came out of me. I thought I would try to blast fire from my hands but I didn't succeed, only thin smoke came from hands. Few moments later I started feeling very uneasy and dream faded away. I woke up.

I was sitting on a chair in my house at night.

"Huh," I said to myself, "I'm dreaming. Cool."

I got up and walked out the door to my front lawn. It was a nice night, clear and warm. My dad followed me, but kind of sticking to the background.

I decided that I would like to try to fly. I spread my arms and jumped up, ready to take flight. Nothing happened. I tried again. Nothing. I was kind of annoyed, but not really, because these beautiful glowing lights were flying around.

They were small colored lights, orange and pink and blue and green. They were shaped like flowers (a dot of light in the middle with five dots of light surrounding it) but they were flying around around me. For a minute, it was hard to see because there were so many of them. When they cleared away, I looked across the street.

There were these huge Easter eggs on the ground. Not as large as a house, maybe half or three quarters that size. They were beautifully decorated, painted with gold and pink and blue... they were amazing. I walked across to them, and saw some people I knew there. By this time, I had basically lost lucidity. I started talking to them, and I can't remember anything more.

Lucid
DILD

I started off lucid in some sort of department store. I was playing some kind of "game" with a bunch of other people. Basically, the goal was to eliminate the opposite team by using bombs, mines, and other such tools. I remember crouching with all my teammates and sending off this little jumping robot that would jump over and unbalance them (because that's soooo dangerous -.-). I saw the robot go through them, hit the wall, and turn around.

I eventually ended up in some giant library. I think someone else was with me, but I can't remember who. I was on some chair looking at cookies. I started stuffing my face with cookies. It tasted so good! Plates and plates of cookies just kept appearing one after another, and i shoved them in my mouth. There were mainly chocolate chip cookies, though I distinctly remember some sort of fruity (maybe raisin?) cookie.

Once I was done stuffing my face, the next thing I knew I was on a large ladder, standing at the top and leaning against the top of the corner of two bookshelves. They were darkly stained; the library felt very old and important, for lack of better words. I was watching below as my mother was sleeping on a sofa. I was slightly scared that this might actually not be a dream. I then tried to make something disappear, but it didn't work. To compensate, I threw this little white and blue china bowl away like a frisbee. It sort of disappeared. I figured it must be a dream, since I didn't see it anymore. Then all of the sudden it smacked me in the back. "What the fuck?" I thought. I turned around to see it perched ever so pristinely on the shelf behind me.

I then did a quick RC just to confirm; if this was real, I wouldn't want to wake my mother! I then decided to throw a little green notebook on to the ground and see what would happen. As I blinked, several "layers" of the notebook disappeared; first its cover was gone, then some sort of sleeve, then the rings that bound it, then some of the pages, and so on.

I then reminded myself of a new goal that I have: to find my dream guide. I climbed through the ceiling as if there was some invisible ladder. I ended up on the top floor of some library. There was a lady there with a strange looking cat; it had some unusual colors if I recall correctly. It was very reddish-orange, had some oddly placed tufts of fur, and had some green in its fur. I petted it and asked if it was my dream guide. There was no response. Then I asked the lady if she was my dream guide, and she said no, but she gave me a piece of paper. Apparently this person was my dream guide. I can't remember the name, but it was long and unusual, and started with a C.

I climbed upward on my imaginary ladder again and ended up in some sort of plaza. I went down an escalator and through the hallways. I was running at a moderate pace, and I realized that for once I could run properly in a dream. I wanted to go faster though, but not fly, since that always seems to end my dreams. I started running on all fours, as if I was some sort of cat. It was slightly awkward at first, but it was faster than before.

I ended up going to some movie theatre. It was dark inside. There were two arab women (or so they seemed). I asked them if they were my dream guide. They said they weren't. I showed them the piece of paper and one of them told my that the person was beside the "Penntons" (I knew she meant "Penningtons, but she had a thick accent). I thanked her and rushed off again, but the dream ended there.

6/25/10

Yay! I got a stripe on my belt! Anyway, for my dreams:

1- In Which Hazel Does Not Act Her Age
My brother comes into my room with this old (fake) sword that he used to have. He begins knocking things off my shelf and just being a pest in general. When he doesn't stop like I tell him to, I throw a temper tantrum like a five year old. O.o After it is over, I wonder why I am acting like this... Oh, it must be a dream. I reverse time and handle the situation more maturely.

2- A Family Outing
I go out to a really strange restaurant with my family. I don't trust these people, something isn't right... As predicted, the owners are up to no good. They are locking people in cages out back. Well, they certainly aren't going to get ME. The only problem is, they have some kind of strange machine that makes them not feel pain. "We'll take care of it," my parents assure me as they allow themselves to be locked up in the cage. "You act as the decoy."

No problem. I take off, and the crazies are quick to give chase. Hm, if I could just run a bit faster... But no, they're still catching up to me. Time to fight. I fight like an expert, but it doesn't matter. They can't feel pain and I can. Just as I am beginning to think I will lose, the one standing in front of me suddenly crumples to the ground, crying out. "Ah, shit, they broke the machine!"

I grin in triumph as my parents and my brother arrive on the scene. "Took you long enough!"

I was with my friend and some girl. We decided to go to swimming pool. The guard stopped me and asked me why I am naked. I was naked and I took some clothes and put it on. We were going trough sewer system to pool. When we got there I saw I have new black shoes. I saw my friend there. It was his birthday. I said to him : happy b-day. I saw a Shift there, I sad hello to her, then my mother came and asked me what am I doing in new shoes. I decided to go home and change them. On my way back I saw a car and checked a registration tables, next time I looked it they have changed. I knew that I am dreaming. I was in my street next to one house. There was a path leading to my mothers friends. It was night and very dark I saw a girl there. I approached her and started touching her and then I saw a police car approaching, I started running and then thought : ''hey wait this is my dream police can't do anything to me''. Since it was night I didn't saw much thing so I decided to make it a day. I closed my eyes and opened them and it was day. I found myself near school where my friend lives. I started going to my friends house. While passing under underway I remembered that I never in my dreams saw my body. I looked down at myself and I saw it. I saw a car there and decided to play with registration tables. I was entertained when they were changing. I decided to continue my way up to friends house. I done nose-pinch test for fun. Also I never saw that my hand has more fingers so I decided to that as well. I had 6 fingers. I though that is a little I need 9-10. And when I looked I had 9 fingers. When I got near my friends house there was his dad sorting the wood. I decided to pass trough him and I did ! He was like ghost I just went trough him. There was a lot of wood in front of me. I wanted to pass trough them like I did at trough friends father but I didn't succeeded, instead I hit myself in leg and it hurt like hell. While passing by I wanted to go faster but I didn't succeeded. Finally I got to doors of my friends house but I didn't entered it. I entered the house next doors. I remembered that 'expect someone that will be there', so I tried to meet anyone there. When I entered there was some blond girl sitting there, I didn't liked it so I decided to try someone else. I entered again but she was still there. I done it one more time and there were 2 girls sitting. They both had red hair. And then I saw something roaring from other room I got scared and dream ended. This whole LD lasted for 15-20 minutes.
