lucid

I haven't tried to ld or try any techniques to obe for about a week because I felt so tired and looked like shite in the mornings when I was obsessing about it so this morning when I started to wake at about 6am I wasn't planing to ld but when I did begin to wake I began the rocking over and back technique and felt myself seperate. I got up very easily and sat on the edge of my bed. I looked around my room but could only see fragments so went straight to examining my hands. They came into focus quite easily and I think I tried to touch other things in my room.

I remember flying and thinking to myself 'you need to have a plan, try looking in a mirror' but totally dismissed this idea as I was enjoying flying way too much I thought 'right I need to have a destination Ibiza' (don't know where that came from i've no desire to go to Ibiza)

My next memory is flying over these tracks that could be unused railway tracks, through mountains and arriving at a resort that was more saloons rather than bars, a small town of wooden structures but bustling and lively. I spoke to a guy with long curly hair that wanted me to stay around but I thought to myself no i'm going to lose this and wake up so had to do the hand examination again to regain clarity and continued flying. At one point I told myself to wake up and start writing incase I forgot it all but thought 'no way am I waking up, this is too fantastic, i'll risk forgetting to continue on this journey' and I know i've forgotten a lot of it but meh the experience took priority

Freddy Kruger is coming after me, I realize if he is coming after me I must be dreaming, even as I am pinned between what appears to be giant calipers.

"Fuck you Freddy, I'm dreaming!"

I feel my energy and it surrounds me in what feels like invisible fire.

-Shift-

I've lost what small amount of lucidity I had in the first place, Freddy is sprawled out on a couch relaxing. I am standing in front of him. I don't trust him, even as he is explaining something to me. I turn around and look for some sort of weapon, I see something on a plaque that could be used as a makeshift weapon. I go to pick it up and go back to listening to him for a brief time. I wake up soon after.

Hi I'm new to this but had a really strange dream last night about a circle of swords or daggers stuck in the ground around me and chanting then they all light up red and I end up in this place very different to here like some kind of alternative reality everything was made of this sandstone yellow and emerald anyway I fell in love with a woman there dark brown hair we had a walk and she showed me the place it was also like isle of white with beaches attached but also with palm trees ect it was beutiful then I get captured by these people but manage to escape I made friends in this place as well so the woman I loved in this dream visited me along with my friends said she would wait for me but Iamaged to escape and get out but for some reason I was in there 5 year somehow but was onli in there 15 min this place I was sent to was magical I find my friends and the woman I loved

but then somehow I was sent back to this place in my dream but only with my friends and I try to get back by my friends performing the same thing again with the swords or daggers around me as I lay down it did work an everything went red around me and my concouis going away from the present world but all of a sudden this old lady in the background started mocking me and even my friends lost concentration reali sad reali because I grew fond of this place in my dream I'd just like to know what it's all about I have these dreams that don't make sense nothing to do with what I thought about or saw and they come when I don't expect it And I went back to sleep this morning and I had the same dream but I was in a museum and i saw a strange book with strange artifacts in such as a big gold box with a face on it and I asked a man about it there and I shown him how it's done with the swords in the ground in a circle an he said he knows what that is and then I woke up because my phone was ringing.

oh and i forgot i kinda woke up but i wasnt i saw a grey figure over my bed i shot up half way out of bed but then woke up to find myself still laying down.

Lol, so... bad bad night's sleep. It got so hot and humid and I woke up at 4:30 sweating my tuchis off. I didn't finally get back to sleep until everyone was gone and then some, maybe 8am. The dogs barked a couple times because it was windy, so it kept waking me up. One time, they barked and I thought "Oh shit, someone's trying to break in." I thought that because we really did get 3 bikes stolen recently. I was really really drowsy when they barked that last time, and I started to drift off.

Then they barked again, and I thought it sounded like they wre barking at the front door, like they do when Danny comes home. He left for work at 6am, so I thought maybe they sent him home for some reason. I heard the bedroom door open, and Danny said something. I tried to speak to him, I think I tried to ask him "Oh did they send you home?" But my voice was paralyzed. I managed to wake up, look up, and saw no one. Then I fell right back to sleep, and I could hear Danny say something again. He even lifted the covers on his side of the bed, and I thought he got in. Then I woke up again and he wasn't there. I gotta be HELLA-tired to get FA's like that haha!

Later on I woke up, still super tired, and I rolled over on my tummy which is more comfortable for falling back to sleep. I felt some vibrations, but instead of the nice, calm vibrations I had recently gotten used to, I felt the demon again. So I knew a lucid dream had started, or physical HH, take your pick. He climbed on my back, clasped my hands in his, and held me down, just like in the good ol' days. It was the grouchy one again, because when I tried to move, he growled like a dog. I tried to free my hands, mroe pressure and more growling. Mind you all, I know this isn't real, so I'm nto scared, just annoyed. At this point I could usually wriggle free and start an LD, maybe after sexing or slapping the guy, or both. But he was really strong. So I stretched my arms out, and did like an airplane move, more growling. I tried to reason with him, like oreo told me that last time (which worked the last time!), but my voice was paralyzed again. I even lifted my right hand to my mouth, and nibbled on his fingers haha. I admit I was having fun, but I wanted to LD! I was finally able to do the roll-out-of-bed technique, and it worked. Kinda. I rolled off the bed, and was falling a while without ever hitting a floor, Dumbass growling the whole way, and I either went nonlucid or just back into hard sleep, can't remember.

We love you when you're maaaaaaaaaad!

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Good morning! Had a lucid a few days ago, or was it yesterday? Anyways I didn't write any of it down. It was pretty short and very unstable, but it was pretty cool still.

22.00: Sleep

08.00: Artillery barrage DILD
It's night out and I'm in my home town, running on a field in the middle of some houses. All of a sudden I realise I'm dreaming. I jump and fly a bit before landing heavily. The dream almost collapses on me but I hang on. My friends G and Felix show up. "Hey guys!" I say. G looks over my shoulder and opens his mouth in astonishment. "Look" he says and point. I look behind me and can see a shooting star coming from the horizon, going across the sky and landing in the opposite horizon. A bright light shines and a few seconds later a huge explosion. None of us are damaged by it.

08.00: Wake up

Amount of sleep: 10 hours

Supplements: None

That's it!

Keep on dreaming, HARE BRA!

I just had one of those lucid dreams where you don't fully realize you are lucid...except you are talking about being in a dream, so you know in retrospect that part of you knew you were dreaming, but not enough to really take advantage of the dream.

Dream:

I was with these girls that were supposed to be my college roommates, and we were stripping down and getting naked and going outside. And I remember pointing out to the others that we were outside where anyone could see us. And a couple of the girls got embarrassed.

But then I pointed out that it didn't matter because this was a dream and nobody else was real (but I was still talking to the roommates as if they were real) and it didn't matter if anyone came by and saw us. That, in fact, I could start shouting for everyone to come look at us (and I did). I pointed out to the girls that the only problem with that would be if my real body really started shouting in my sleep. But I was pretty sure that wouldn't happen. I also told them that sometimes in my dreams I would try to be aware of what my real body was doing. And I stopped and tried to sense my real body...but I wasn't feeling anything but my dream body.

And that's all I remember.

I was confronted by B.K. about some notes I'd written. I was afraid I would be kicked out of the C.S. I was so high. I read the last sentence and it was really weird, though something I might write IWL.

I laughed. B.K. asked why I laughed. I explained it looked like something I would write.

Girls chest, tank-top, cleavage with goose bumps.
Then puffy brown areola were showing.
My feet were pointing backward trying to touch her breasts.
She moved close enough to barely graze a foot.
I tried to get on the computer and bring up the camera to take video, but I couldn't get to the camera.

__

I was driving my bus very high. I couldn't turn the bus, so I stopped.

Then I was in my truck. I parked it and left it, but then was trying to find it again.

I realized I was dreaming, I was in a building trying to get out. I ran down the steps and had a false memory of how to get out.

Outside, I flew to find my truck. My truck appeared up in the air. It was blue, not black, which I found weird, but it was mine. I got in the truck and Bobby Cox was in it. He was the mechanic.

He questioned me about finding my way out of the building, so I said, "I flew up here, didn't I?"

Then the mechanic was Pat C. I went to kiss him (?), then I bit his mouth. I tried to bite clean through his lips. Then I went to bite his whole face/head, and I did.

I started driving down the road trying to find my bus. I was lost, and trying to get somewhere where I at least recognized how to get home.

I saw some people walking down the street. I saw a pretty girl, but I had to pass them. This part was not so lucid.

I was more lucid when I came to a room with white, metal bunk beds. It was about 10 bunk beds high. I saw a deformed child. I flew up the beds, half climbing them. All the beds had deformed, crying children in them.

I couldn't find anyone my age, so I left them.

Then I was with R, my FGF. She gave me ten dollars but I didn't want it. I just wanted to be with her. She turned out to be J. I told her I loved her.

DreamLucidAwake

So a few days or so ago I started to create a tulpa of my dream guide, Krystal. Part of my reason for doing this was to see if she could help me with lucid dreaming even more in some way. I remember she talked a lot when I was half asleep during the night. I can't remember what she was saying, but I think they were mantras. I can't really confirm that, but it makes sense to me.

As far as I know, this dream started off with me being lucid. It's possible stuff happened beforehand, but I don't remember. I was walking with Krystal in the middle of nowhere. Not really sure how to describe it. There was a lot of dirt and a lot of rocks. That's about it. The time was also near sunset, so the sky was pretty at least.

As we walked we came across an area where there were many large stones. They seemed kind of organized and looked as if they used to be structures. My first impression was that we were among the ruins of some old village that had been abandoned or destroyed. As we walked among the ruins we came across what looked like an old wheat field. Oddly, there was still wheat growing. It also had a creepy scarecrow on a post in front of the wooden fence.

Unfortunately Krystal didn't seem to talk much, and for the things she did say, I have trouble remembering. Perhaps I'm just a horrible listener. However, I do remember her saying something related to the wheat field being a massive unmarked grave. She also mention something about construction. Krystal then jumped over the wooden fence and dashed into the field. I was confused at first, but I jumped over the fence too and followed her. When I caught up to her, she was pulling a leg out of the ground. She then dragged the leg back towards the scarecrow. I found an arm sticking out of the ground next to me, so I pulled it out and dragged it back to the scarecrow.

Krystal removed the straw from one of the scarecrow's legs and then shoved the human leg back in to replace it. When she did that, the leg somehow locked into place. I then did the same with the scarecrow's arm and the human arm I found. We then went back into the field to look for more body parts, but time must have skipped here or completely forgot it.

Next thing I know, the scarecrow's straw has all been replaced with human body parts except for the head. Krystal transformed her hand to give herself claws. She took a swiped at the scarecrow and cut off its head. After that, Krystal went back into the field and brought back a pumpkin. She placed the pumpkin where the scarecrow's head would be and asked me to carve it for her. I didn't feel like asking questions, so I transformed my hand to give myself claws and started carving. I decided to try to make it as scary as I could for the fun of it. I gave it glaring eyes, a smile that showed many sharp teeth, and a triangle nose.

As I was doing that, Krystal had pulled out what I would assume is a spell book. She started flipping through it and reading it as a green glow formed around the scarecrow. When she finished reading, she closed the book and the glow disappeared. She then she asked me to ignite a flame inside the pumpkin. So I pointed a finger at the pumpkin's mouth and shot a tiny fireball into it. The pumpkin's face lit up brightly and I felt compelled to just stare at it for a moment. The scarecrow's body twitched slightly, and I immediately jumped back and into a fighting stance. Right when I jumped back, the scarecrow tried to grab me, but it missed. We had apparently brought the scarecrow to life.

The scarecrow detached itself from the pole and walked over to a tree stump. There was a hatchet that had been left wedged into it. It pulled the hatchet out and turned back towards me. For some reason I wasn't thinking too clearly and wasn't sure how to react. The scarecrow then charged towards me at a super fast speed. I finally decided that it would be a good idea to transform into a dragon. Before I had the chance to transform though, he was already right in front of me. He knocked me back across the ground and into a wall. As I got back on my feet, I was kind of dazed and I wondered why Krystal wasn't helping me at all.

The scarecrow appeared in front of me, and before I could even react, he grabbed me with one hand and swung his hatchet with the other. The blade went into the right side of my neck and I felt a sharp pain. The pain at least wasn't as bad as you would expect it to be though. He then wriggled the hatchet back out and then started hacking away at my neck more furiously until it fell off. My head hit the ground and rolled a bit before the scarecrow stopped it. He picked up my head and then smiled. It seemed as though he desired a human head to go with his human body.

My vision was starting to fade when I saw Krystal appear behind him in wolf form. She attacked him and I blacked out. After a moment I heard Krystal's voice telling me to use my illumina spell. It was kind of difficult since I didn't really have a point of focus or a target for it, but I eventually formed a purple light around me. Suddenly I could see again, but it was weird because it looked as if I was wearing a jack-o-lantern over my head. That was kind of close to the truth. I tried turning my head to look around, but I couldn't. Krystal angled me to be able to look up at her. It became apparent to me that I was still just a head and Krystal was carrying me.

Krystal carried me to my body (which was oddly still standing up), and attached me to my neck. I could feel my body again and I had control. I looked around and saw the scarecrow guy lying on the ground headless. Not far from him I also found my head. After putting two and two together, I realized that I had the scarecrow's pumpkin head as my own head now. I felt kind of sick at this point and fell over. I passed out and woke up for real.

Dreaming that I was playing rugby, training with a local club in Australia, then I was in a match playing for Ireland, which is strange given I don't play rugby and am not Irish.
I started off okay but was tiring quickly and I couldn't kick the ball properly very often. In all fairness, I had no idea what I was doing but seemed to play okay.

Remember going back into the changing rooms afterwards and organising to go for a drink with some people.

At some point I was playing basketball on the court near home.

**There was a lot more in my dreams last night, I woke a few times, but recall was bad.

Driving back from changing rooms, there was roadworks and it looked like I had to drive to the left, a policeman was there, he stopped me and had a go at me for being in the wrong lane.
After apologising he became a lot less serious and let me thorough and offered to wash my hands?? He poured this liquid that had the same viscosity as washing up liquid on my hands and I drove off.


Short Lucid dream - broke the 2 week duck!I was standing in my bedroom when my childhood pet cat that has since passed on, walked across the room.
I became lucid straight away, but instead of wanting to explore the dreamscape I spent a couple of mins petting him then followed him to the living room and lucidity was lost.

This was actually a fragment related to Saturday night's lucid dream. I only remembered this portion of the dream today at school.

I was lucid, and in the desert town, with sandstone/mud buildings. I was looking down a street that was a T-intersection. A tank comes in from the right, and fires at me, only once.
I was lucid, and held my hand up. The bullet hit right in my hand and I did not feel anything in my hand. There was a little bit of wind from the blast, but all of the fire and smoke was directed away from me.

Today I had my revenge from my brain that is lately tricking me into illogical fears when in SP, and has led me to waste some good WILDs. So my brain tried to trick me again in an unconscious FA, but I turned the tables.

So I'm having a false awakening, ultra realistic, thought I had woken up. I was laid in my bed thinking. I start hearing my parents' voices from other rooms, but I think "my parents are on a business trip, how the hell can I hear them?" I kept doubting for a little, then I reality checked, and I realised I was dreaming!

I got up ran to the door and before opening it, I thought "how about a lightsaber?" so I reach my pocket and try to visualise it. Shit. Due to excitement of the moment, my dream starts to fade. So I lay on the floor with eyes closed trying to DEILD.

I made it! And it wasn't a reset, I found my dream from where I had left it and kept on with it! I opened the door, walked through the corridor and jumped out of the window. I couldn't fly, I just fell down but wasn't hurt or anything. Suddenly the dream starts to fade, but weirdly! I am suddenly projected on a bike, now 3rd person and I control myself by thought, like a dream-video game! So I realised there was little to do about it and started driving on the streets. Suddenly, the dream collapses.

This dream was really short because I was too excited and had poor dream control. But I fooled my brain back for being a dickhead, so I'm happy!

I think I'm just going to continue revovling involuntarily between every goddamned induction technique they ever came up with. This morning was probably my first DEILD in it's truest sense. I mean, I've woken up and had 2 or 3 WILDs back to back before, but there was always minutes in between, and I didn' enter the dream where it left off. And the dreams were longer. This time I had maybe 5 or 6 (lost count!), and each time I would wake up after a quick 2-3min LD, be awake for a few seconds, then slip right back into the same story, fully lucid. No vibrations, and I didn't always start the LD in my stupid bed for a change! Like the last post, I'm a bit fuzzy on what happened in which dream, except for the first one and the last 2.

I woke up at 6:45am, and got Chris to school, then back to bed at about 7:20. But I tossed and turned for aaaages. I was sick yesterday so I still had cold medicine in me, and my sleep pattern was all jacked up. Not sure when I finally fell asleep.

In the first lucid, I dreamed that I woke up, but I wasn't sure if it was an LD because I didn't have my usual vibrations. I noticed it was super dark out, even though I remember it being light when I went back to bed. I was pretty sure I was lucid, and when I slowly got out of bed with blankets stuck to my back, I knew for sure. I went out the bedroom door and it was super dark. I flipped switches like crazy, to no avail. Then I remembered the flashlight me and CanisLucidus had talked about previously. So I felt my way to the livingroom and felt on an end table, willing a flashlight to appear. I felt something cold and cylindrical and picked it up. There was a little slidy button (like the flashlights we had in the 80's haha), so I pushed it up and it turned on with an ok-ish light. I shined it all over the livingroom, asking out loud "Any vampires in here? I actually wanna get bit. Free meal. Anyone?" Nothing. So I went out the front door and shined the light up and down the block. I saw a short old mexican man across the street. I ran across the street and asked him, with the light on him, if he was a vampire. He said no. So I reached up to touch his teeth in case he was lying, and he backed up saying "Hey leave me alone!" Then I woke up.

I fell right back to sleep and immediately was standing in the hallway, lucid! This time I was blind in my left eye again. I actually put my fingers on my left eye, to feel if maybe the lid was glued shut. It was. I tryed to pry it open, but each time it snapped back shut. I thought to myself, "Hrmm, all this time I wasn't lucid blind, just lucid winking lol." Then I woke up.

Fell asleep, woke up in bed again. Dark again, so I knew I was dreaming again. I was a little frustrated that all these dreams were so short, but thankful that I was popping back into them lucid each time. Still set on the TOTM, I decided to try to use a mirror to find a vampire. Guess which lucid prop decided to finally cock block me. I tried 2 mirrors, and one reflective picture frame, and each time, the mirror pivoted instead of letting me pass through. In retrospect, maybe the space behind could have acted as a portal, since the mirror always pivoted into a dark cube of space in the wall. Anyway, I was too focused on solving the issue, so I just went out the front door again. I still had my flashlight and was shining it all over the lawn, asking "Any vampires out here? Helloooooooo?" Something in my front yard quickly passed through the cone of light from my flashlight, and started to hurry away. The surprise made me drop my flashlight. I said "Hey, stop!" The figure stopped and came toward me, and I struggled to make out his features in the moonlight. He stepped right in front of me and I could see him better. He was a young guy, in his 20's maybe, wearing jeans, a blue hoodie, shoulder-length wavy brown hair. And damn sexy. I asked him if he was a vampire. He smiled and said "yes," and I could see a flash of white, pointy teeth. I said "you can bit me if you want." He asked "Are you sure?" I said "Do it, it's for an experiment." So he said "Okaaaay...." and tipped my head to the left. (Interesting note I just realized: the vampire chic in the last dream went for the opposide side of my neck than the dude.) He bit down on my neck in the traditional spot, and again, it didn't feel like a puncture, more like a super hot hickey. Wow. You guys seriously gotta try this! Then he just slowly urged me down on the grass, and without breaking the bite, started removing our clothes. HELL yeaaaah. I really wanted it. But then I remembered I wanted to see the transition even more than vampire sex ( maybe next time). So I pushed him off and said "Sorry" and ran into the house. I went into the hall bathroom which was already lit up, praise goodness. I looked at my reflection and saw the bite marks, same as last time. I reached up and could feel them too, a little gross but no blood. I felt awakeness start to pull me (ffffuuuuu!), and I woke up, with the image of my reflection staring back at me, burned into my mind.

I immediately went back to sleep (I can only thank my new found ability to ignore feelings of disappointment or dispair in LDs, as they deter from goals. If only I could apply this irl.) Anyway, sure enough, I went right back into the dream staring at my reflection.. same pose and everything, and completely lucid (that's a lucid first for me!) I was determined not to let this one go without experiencing the transition, since I remembered everything from the previous dreams at that point. I opened my mouth and stared at my teeth. After a few moments, my incisors lengthened and sharpened, but they looked like they had rotated 90 degrees. That's odd. I kept watching and those same incisors grew a little longer, and additional sharp growths sprouted from them. I watched as the other teeth did the same thing. I looked at my irises, hoping for some bad ass color change, but they stayed normal. Lol the ONE TIME. I stepped back a bit and opened my mouth a little wider, to see all my teeth. Every one of them was sharp, with tiny barbs protruding from each one. That would make a hell of a bite I'd say! The last thing I saw from that dream before waking up, was staring at my creepy new teeth, with a big wide grin.

I fell back to sleep for what would be the last lucid of the morning. I appeared in the same bathroom, fully lucid. I remembered all the vampire stuff, and even wondered if it would count since it was split up. I looked at my teeth to make sure they were still monstrous, and they were. So I thought I'd add a bonus to this task and go find some hot guy to bite. I left the bathroom, and now the hall looked like the hall of a university building. There were open doors, and rooms full of college students. I walked by one open door and a cute guy was standing right at the opening, so I grabbed his arm and pulled him down the hall. I found an open storage closet with a chair covered in a sheet, and I threw him down on the chair. We started making out, and I shouldn't have started with that, because it just made me horny. I started taking his pants off, then mine. I convinced myself that I could have both: the sex and the bite. I was greedy, because I woke up before I could have either. DAMNIT. But also yay!

Black - Narrative/Thoughts
Lucid
Non-Lucid

20 October 18:39

Throughout this long non lucid dream I was beginning to get frustrated with the events which were unfolding. I was standing on a ladder leading onto a little house in the middle of a dessert. Then, without warning, I suddenly questioned why I was dreaming.

I thought that this couldn't be real as I couldn't remember to how I got where I was. So I looked down at my hands and I saw that my pinky and ring finger were attached and slightly bent inwards.

I then said, "I am dreaming!" and I instantly jumped into the sky and started to fly. Flying this time came completely effortless. I stopped and thought about the conversation I had when I was awake with my girlfriend and that I wanted to touch something in my dream and feel it, as well as increase the dreams clarity.I wanted to do this, because in my other LD's I haven't done it and I always read about people experiencing touch and increasing clarity.

I flew to the floor and picked up an empty crisp packet that was conveniently lying there. I put the packet in my hand and began to scrump it up. The sensation I felt was just like I experienced when I was awake. I felt the sharp corners against my palm but it felt more "sharp" and just amazing that I could feel such detail in a dream.

I then went to a lake and tried the water, I felt the coldness of the water, but what was interesting is that I didn't move my hands, but the water felt like it was being brushed over my hands as though I was moving them whilst in the water.

I then shouted, "increase clarity!" but it didn't really make the landscape clearer as such, instead it was like a pulse wave emitting from my body and as it went from me, I could see the waves go past the landscape. As it passed some objects, it created new ones, for example, it left a bush in place of a table when the wave passed it. It didn't make it clearer as such, well it may have, but my attention was drawn to how the landscape was changing in front of me.

I think I went non-lucid after this as I can't remember much more. Also this was a dream in the middle of a long series of dreams, so I am quite amazed I remembered it as it was this morning and I have only had the time to write it down now. Very short LD experience, but one of the most amazing experiences ever.

I had a hard time getting up this morning. I can't remember this dream very well but it was a lucid.

Me and my supposed guide were sitting together. We were in a small stucco house, like one you would expect to see in Egypt or the middle east. We sat at a small wooden table by a window. Out the window, there were several more stucco buildings followed by a mountain range off in the distance.
Man, I would give anything to remember what she was telling me about. I can remember it being some really profound advice about my life. I woke up after we had talked for awhile.

As I fell asleep in an ice chamber guarded by robotic beings to the sound of clashing metal, I awoke in my childhood. I was around eight years old, and I was playing outside with some unfamiliar friends. I have brief flashbacks of playing soccer in the grass field with these friends. My vision pans over to an elderly man, watching with a friendly smile and leaning on his cane, as he watches us play. He's having a conversation with a mother (I'm not sure who's) while they both laugh in amusement. The days seem to pass by in seconds as suddenly I'm in the elderly man's home. A beautiful wooden interior apartment with perfect organization and balanced feng shui. There is an owl clock on the wall of his kitchen, the time is 3:37. The elder man starts telling me a tale that I can't forget.

"A long time ago, this planet was visited by a sibling of the Human race. They appear to look just like us, but they are millions of years ahead of us in both existence and technology. They have told us how to contact them, but they are very difficult to locate due to their nomadic nature. When they visited us, they gave us 3 artifacts, which when used together, could help us locate this elusive race. These 3 devices are remotes. One of them controls time, the other space and the third one grants knowledge. For thousands of years, these remotes have been hidden from civilization, and as my time grows short, it is time to pass on the legacy."

The elderly man opened a wooden drawer and pulled out two strange looking controllers. One looked like the classic controlled popularized by media that a suicide bomber would press to detonate a bomb, and the other one looked very closely too a Wii remote. Both were solid black. He informed me that the detonator one was the remote of knowledge, and the Wii looking one was that of time. He told me that when combined, their unique ability was to control any object, and he explained to me the abilities of each of the remotes. I was taught that they each had a unique symbol given to them in their native language, but were translated simply into English.

X - Space: Grants the user the ability to move and control a defined space with ease.
Y - Time: Grants the user the ability to manipulate time.

Since the elder man had control of both Y and Z, he had created (with his endless time and knowledge) a robotic cat, which he taught to protect. The cat was indestructible and only obeyed those who the man wanted it to obey. The elder man gave me both remotes and the cat.

After this event, I lapsed many many years in my life and suddenly I was my actual age (17). The hype of the remotes had become insane since people feared the end of the world. A person my age (and old best friend) was able to gain and betray my trust and stole the time remote. To insure he would not steal my last remote, I wished for immunity of time control. With my endless array of knowledge, I was able to have superhuman abilities. I could fly, I could run infinitely, and I could breath underwater without any problems. I used my immunity of time change the stay on track with the time traveling thief in order to reclaim my device. I eventually found him in a lower class environment in what I thought to be Iran. We were arguing near a swimming pool when the national armies cornered us. With some hesitation, I convinced my old friend to give me back my remote so we could escape with ease. I created a vast underground water tunnel from Iran to Russia, within a few seconds. Within the next second, I was in Russia. I have no idea how the armies kept locating me, but I was being chased by helicopters. My robotic cat and I were running for what seemed to be hours when finally we ended up in an isolated cavern, where the controller(s) of space were. In order to protect the space remote, the user divided himself into two separate entities, insuring that if one was captured, the second would be able to guard the remote. Without hesitation, I tried stopping time to take his remote when he informed me that time travel had no effect on him. I quickly decided to escape. I seemed to almost jump to the city I currently reside in today. I ran into a restaurant where I saw a friend. I begged him to help me run from the police, but he refused to help since he knew I was a fugitive. I heard helicopters. As me and my cat ran through a thickly dense bush, I realized that my time controller needed to recharge. With quick thinking, I wished to be on the moon. A second later, I wished to be able to breathe in space, and the second after I wished for immortality.

My dream ended at that moment, as I remember staring at the Earth with both remotes in my hand, contemplating what I would do next.

I plan on re-entering this dream tonight and hopefully I can retrieve the last remote and locate this lost race.
