    Nightmares

    1. Very strange things in this lucid dream

      by , 02-25-2013 at 01:44 PM
      Well I started out spinning around in some strange area, I don't remember exactly where but this triggered my lucidity as I started questioning whether this was a dream. I performed a reality check a few times and it came up positive so I took a few steps to this support beam and I think I was in some arena type area, I don't remember exactly but after walking to this support beam, this animated drawing of a cartoon woman with blonde hair and a blue blouse appeared on the wall. I took a few minutes to look at it and it's mouth moved like it was alive. then after that I touched it and the whole frame of the picture started moving forward. the drawing stayed on the wall, but the wall which covered the whole of the drawing came out in a rectangular shape. I looked away and then it changes and some butten looking thing appeared, I'm not sure how to explained but I remember it turning from light blue to red after looking away each time.

      after that I saw some people and I was looking for some women to kiss and I went to one women who happend to be an old lady with terriblely animated lips which looked like something a cartoon character would have then after looking at the people she was standing with, I saw one old man who was also badly animated, but it was his wierd shaped eyes. First of all his eyes were super small, very beady looking which poked out like bug eyes and they were completely black, like he was wearing black contacts or something. I think I tried to do something but I don't remember but I remember staring at him wondering why people looked so weird in my dreams then the dream suddenly turned into a short nightmare when he suddenly roared at me like he was pissed by my presence. Ity was a scary raor almost unreal and his face looked very monsterish but it happend in a flash cause I woke up shortly after.

      when I wokme up I went to record what I remembered in my dream journal. I went to the computer and looked for this site, then for some reason was looking through a notebook and I don't remember if anything happend after that but later on I woke up for real and was surprised that it turned out to be a false awakening.
    2. One of the strangest nightmares I've had in a while.

      by , 02-23-2013 at 01:13 AM
      I am with my father, and we are driving to his new house that he recently bought. Although it is in the middle of the day, there is absolutely no one else to be seen. I keep on thinking in my head "Maybe I can stay here when my father is at his other house", and this makes me very excited.

      We arrive and it is a very standard house. We both go inside and once again, very standard. My father goes into another room, and I start examining his pad. As I am going through the rooms, I trip over a pile of books laying on the floor. My father is agitated and tells me off. As I am putting the books back together, I look through them and find that they're about monsters. Not scary or hideous monsters, but the very strange and actually kind of funny kind, like you would see in Yu-Gi-Oh. One of the monsters was called a "Side-Mouther", and all it was, was a pair of ordinary looking teeth with electric probes sticking out on either side.

      We are sitting down in the living, when suddenly I start to hear strange noises that my father is completely oblivious to. At first I thought of it as nothing, but then I ask him: "Are we being robbed?". We look out on the driveway and we see a white van pull away with two cocky men inside. Another car is set to follow and infuriated, my father yells profanities to the driver. The driver who is angered by this, starts approaching the front door with a machete. My little sister appears out of nowhere, and I tell her: "Quick, hide!". My father quickly picks up a hammer, and starts hitting the door in an attempt to scare the yob away. This makes the yob even angrier, and he starts hacking away at the door with his machete. The hits are very accurate and nearly hit my father. I am able to block some of his attacks, but one lands squarely on the head of my father.

      End of dream.
    3. A Battery Powered World

      by , 02-22-2013 at 11:07 PM
      Need to work on my reality checking, so haven’t yet become Lucid. Just started my Dream Journal and to my delight I’m starting to get some Dream Recall.

      A Battery Powered World

      Couldn’t believe it, £1.00 for a thousand batteries the AAA type as well. That was the price I saw on the online store, so I snapped them up instantly.

      The next day a convoy of vans arrived, I thought to myself what’s going on? The first van pulled up outside my parents’ house, and the driver said “Order for Mr Wayne Harrison” I said “Yes that’s me”. To my amazement 2 guys lifted out this 1battery, it was 2 metres high and well you can image how wide, looked just like a normal battery you’d use in your alarm clock or TV remote control, but was a 1000 times bigger.

      Then I realized, that all the vans were coming here each with one massive oversized battery and they’d keep coming. That’s when I woke myself up as I started to panic to what my parents would say.

      After awaking in the ‘real world, I realized if I’d done a reality check in my dream world I’d realize I was in a dream and would have been able to start controlling the environment or at least make the oversized batteries disappear.

      But as I’m new to all this I was pleased I could start recalling my dreams at all, so I thought I’d share this with you all.

      "Do you like seeing what you made?" He asks
      I laugh and look in the canyon. (canyon on left, kansas on right) There is a river and trees down there, but the river is so blue, and the trees are every color (mostly green, purple, and blue, but there was some red and yellow thrown in). I stared down there for a while and then woke up.

    5. February 20th 2013 Non-Lucid

      by , 02-20-2013 at 06:09 PM (Deep Inside The Lucid Dreamer's Subconscious)
      IRL I've been in show choir (singing and dancing group) for about 3 years now and I'm now a leader this year. In our show I have two solos which means a lot of pressure to not mess up, and this pressure makes me nervous every show.

      Last night I had a dream about show choir. Usually in my show choir dreams I'm on stage with my choir and I don't really know the moves or I'm forgetting them, but I don't actually care about messing up or get upset over it. This is why last night's dream was so different.

      The dream starts as we are running onto my school's stage to see that the entire place is filled with people that are screaming and cheering us on. The lights are very bright so I can't really make anybody out in the crowd but the people on stage are the people in my IRL choir. The show is going okay as people are doing random moves to a song I don't know and I'm looking at other people to see what moves they were because I clearly did not know them. When the chorus comes up IRL it's very quick and most people have trouble at first remembering the words and sometimes the moves. The chorus in my dream turns into a disaster. As it hits, no one knows the moves and they stop cold in their tracks along with me. This thought comes into my head that goes "no choir has ever had their entire show stop because people didn't know the moves, this is all my fault" and I run down the stage steps into the crowd crying. For probably 30 seconds I'm standing in dark matter by myself crying in my hands unaware that there is no world around me.

      I don't think I've cried this hard in a regular dream over something so stupid. It was like all the sadness that is in my mind went to this moment of just balling my eyes out for this absurd occurrence. Then I appear through a door into the chorus room where we have class to see our previous dance captain walking. I love this guy so much so I feel I ashamed him and this position. I walk over still crying into my hands and lean on his chest. I'm crying so hard I'm practically yelling my sobs.


      That dream ends and this morning I had a false awakening. IRL my phone plays a song and vibrates to wake me up, but in the dream my phone only vibrates. I get up and turn it off then immediately get out of me bed. I head for the shower and see there are clothes stacked up on the sink. Then I wake up for real.

      - My brother and his girlfriend had just broken up. I can’t remember why but I had to go to where my brother’s ex-girlfriend worked. She worked at a pharmacy.
      When I entered the shop I knew that this was going to be awkward. She was sitting at the front desk that was right in front of the door. As soon as she saw me she stood up and started crying. I went over to her to try and calm her down. The doors opened behind me and a few of my brothers friends walked in. They started calling her names and then left after a few minutes.
      She started crying more so I spent the next few minutes trying to make her feel better. When she stopped crying she gave me two USBs from her pocket. She said that one was for my brother and the other was for me. I got confused by this but accepted them.
      I then left the shop and got in a car. It had been snowing a lot recently and the roads were really icy. Someone else was driving the car instead of me. They started driving towards school which took us up a massive hill. It took us ages to get up the hill because of the ice. When we arrived at school I got out of the car and looked down. In the snow nearby I saw a blue USB that belonged to my brother. I walked over and picked it up. I then headed straight inside and went to an office. When I got there I saw that it belonged to my brother.
      I opened the door and went inside. I was expecting my brother to be in there but he wasn’t. I placed the USB that his ex-girlfriend gave me for him and the blue one on his desk and then left. I went to the room next door which as the resource centre and sat at a table with a couple other people.
      Sat at the table were Jake, Tom, Preston and Joe. We were all talking about how the ID we had to wear around our necks weren’t printed properly. I looked down at mine and saw that the printing on it was wonky and that most of the writing was missing. Some of the picture of me was also cut off. Everyone else’s ID were equally bad quality.
      I saw my brother walk past the door and into his office. I stood up and walked to the door. On my way out I heard Joe say “Wow, John is really trying to push the whole Mayan thing.” I walked through the door and into my brother’s office. I found him sitting at his desk looking at the two USBs on his desk. I told him that I found the blue USB outside on the floor and the other one was from his ex-girlfriend. He got annoyed at that.

      - Me and another guy were walking through a forest along a dirt path. We see a guy sitting on a tree stump nearby but chose to ignore him. He was wearing a blue hood with strange symbols on it over his head. He also had a mask that covered his whole face except his right eye. I noticed that as we walked by him, he stood up and started walking the same way as us. After a couple of minutes we concluded that he was following us so we decided to confront him. We stop, turn around and walk up to him. We ask him why he is following us. He doesn’t say a thing. Instead he pulls out a gun. He shoots the guy next to me a couple of times and he falls to the ground. He then turns the gun on me and shoots me 3 times in the stomach. I somehow still have the strength to turn around and run away. I get about 3 meters away from him until he shoots me a couple more times and I fall to the ground.

    7. Native Curse

      Tormentors
      Recall: 7/10
      Sleep: Good
      Sleep Position: Unknown
      For some reason I've called up Jimmy, and ask him if he knows any indian medicine men or sorcerers, maybe he has someone in his family who has that type of knowledge. He doesn't seem into the idea but I talk him into it and he finally tells me to come over.

      I go to his place, he invites me inside, then all these indians start giving me a hard time. An old woman giving me dirty looks that could kill, muscled goon indians trying to intimidate me. I know where I'm not wanted, so I go to put my shoes back on only to find thumb tacks inside them. I remove the tacks, put on my shoes and leave.

      But it's not going to be that easy. They follow me and start using some sort of reality altering magics or curse on me. Everything is just going crazy in a very bad way, hard to describe. I begin to use dream control without being lucid to counteract their efforts, and manage to calm things down. One of them comments that they are surprised I managed to calm things down so quickly, then they launch another attack even worse than the last one. My reality falls apart into a crazy fractal. I do my best to keep my focus so it doesn't get the better of me and try to get out of there.

      I leave the apartment building but they follow me, so I try to lose them by hopping on a bus that happens to have stopped near me with the door open, but they still follow. On the bus, my trials continue. At one point there is some sort of deformed mutant kid at the front with a donation box, and the old indian woman hands me 15 dollars to give to him. I'm about to put it all in his box, when I think I'll need money to pay my bus fare and keep 5 for myself, giving the kid 10. The old indian woman is absolutely disgusted by this, and even I concede that was a dick move. I know this isn't real, and I couldn't even give to the poor cripple kid without thinking of myself.

      This hellish mind fuck of an assault carries on, and
      I finally realize I'm dreaming. Rather than try to salvage this mess of a dream, I'm like "fuck this, I'm outta here!" and wake myself up.

      I'm having too many dreams where I use dream control without being lucid. Going to have to try to do something about that.

    8. Another Nightmare

      by , 02-13-2013 at 11:19 PM
      (I've been having so many nightmares recently)

      I woke up in my room, my clock said 3:38 AM. I could hear my brother and sister in the living room, and I wondered why they were up. My dad came in and told me that school was canceled for the day because the teachers had some big meeting in Indianapolis. I got up and the dream kinda derped for a moment because I don't remember what happened .... After that, though, I was inside of our church -ew- and I was with my little sister. We went outside because we saw my brother outside. I suddenly sensed that someone out back. That's when I saw someone darting back and forth. It terrified me, because I could feel that he wasn't a good person. I told my sister to go inside, but she didn't listen! The guy came around and he had a knife, a long one, too. I started screaming at her to go inside, but she kept saying no! I pushed her behind a car because he kept getting closer. He came closer and threw the knife at me, with more appearing in his hands. I picked it up (he was a terrible aim) and begged him not to kill me. He said nothing, but kept coming closer.
      Then the dream ended.

      It was scary... Just saying.
    9. A Clever Way Around a Zombie Apocalypse

      by , 02-13-2013 at 12:00 PM (Golden Tales From The Dream World)
      Dream
      Lucid
      Semi-Lucid

      Okay, this is a pretty cool dream, and I'm going to tell you why.
      During the day my mind was plagued with a certain predicament.
      Usually a nightmare is one thing, like a scary monster or a gangster who wants to kill you.
      Which is why I like calling them knightmares (so original), they're warriors of fear.
      But what happens when your nightmare isn't one thing?
      What if it's all around you?
      I'm talking about, of course, zombie apocalypses.
      Now I've experienced way more than a few of these, and here's what the difference is between them and regular nightmares.
      Say I become lucid when a gangster has a gun to my head.
      What do I do? Use telekinesis to snap his neck, nightmare over.
      But if you become lucid during a zombie apocalypse, what are you going to do?
      I mean, I'm sure any of you guys could just teleport to a different dream but I can't as of yet so bare with me.
      You could try and kill all the zombies you see, which you could do pretty easily.
      However, the world has still ended, there's no one around to interact with at all.
      You're doomed to forever wander the wastes.
      So, you haven't beaten the nightmare.
      Why? Because the fear from this nightmare doesn't even come from the zombies.
      It comes from knowing that you're alone, in a desolate world, where every human being who once lived wants you DEAD.
      The nightmare is literally the ground beneath your feet.
      Well, I guess you could just destroy that too.
      If you're for some reason powerful enough to summon a world ending black hole but not enough to make a portal to a happier place, that could solve your problem.
      I mean, the dream would either end or create a new scene.
      However I doubt anyone is like that.
      Passive control a cure that gets distributed?
      Maybe, but with my thinking mind I'd wonder, "How could they deliver a cure world wide when 90% of the population is either dead or zombified?" and that solution probably wouldn't work.
      So I had reached an impasse, even if I become lucid during a zombie apocalypse (which I have), there's no real way to stop it.
      I mean, I wouldn't be as scared but I still couldn't say I beat the nightmare.
      Or so I thought.
      This train of thought happened to leak into my dreams, causing, why yes, a zombie apocalypse dream, and my theory was put to the test.


      February 7th 2013

      I'm running away from some zombies with a couple others.
      We were ambushed by some earlier and are trying our best to get away from them.
      We get to a clearing but more zombies emerge from the trees.
      We run the other direction and are ambushed by more, we ran right into a horde.
      I'm being chased by multiple zombies now and am running for my life.


      "Oh christ, I gotta do something fast!" I think to myself.

      I start to try think up a way out of my current predicament.

      "I'm not being chased by zombies, I'm on the set of the walking dead!"

      I will this to be true with every fiber of my being and it is made so.
      I continue running but now I see cameras on cranes of to the sides and a director sitting on his chair.
      Realizing that the zombies are just actors I decide to get close to one to see how they look since obviously they won't try to grab me or anything.
      I see the face of one, she has a greenish greyish complexion with crazy brown hair sticking out in all directions, her eyes look blood shot and dead, but otherwise she look like a regular person.
      I veer off to one side and see a zombie without the top part of his head.
      It looks so real that it actually scares me. I head off.
      I can see one of my friends, who I believe is Shane, and decide to follow him down a path.
      I come to a fork in the path and run down the wrong way.
      I can hear the director yell in the background.

      "Go the other way!"

      I did this purposely to test just how real this reality I had created on the spot was, and whether or not the nightmare would return.
      But it didn't, I'm still on set,
      which means I have to keep running or the director's gonna get pissed! I veer off back to follow Shane.

      "There you are!" He calls to me.

      We continue to run down into an alley way and scene is over.

      "Cut!"

      The alley way is where the director is, along with a couple other actors.
      Among them is the guy who plays rick.



      Yeah, so that's a simple solution to the problem, use passive control to make yourself be on the set of a zombie movie/tv show.
      Though, since I was semi-lucid I had a lot more power than I do regularly.
      In hindsight I should have given that whole theory more thought.
      However, dream me seems to think best on his feet.
      Also, the reason I became semi-lucid is because Zombie Apocalypses are a dream sign that even dream me recognizes.
      Well once again my conjecture is longer than my actual dream. Damn.

    10. Marriage??

      by , 02-12-2013 at 05:01 AM

      the line of duty( he is a cop) In the dream we have been married for 7 years and
      have one child together. The dream then jumps to me and a guy that I've worked
      with for a while and in the dream we are having a conversation. In the dream he
      his fiancé leaves him but he still for whatever reason has to get married. He then
      asks me to fill in as his bride and that we can get a divorce later. We go on a
      date, have sex, and wind up falling in love and getting married.

      *I've been engaged for 9 months and we have a date for may of next year set, this dream is really weighing on my mind, like maybe it isn't meant... (..... please help!!!!

      Witch's House

      It was raining and I was being chased down the road by a dog. I saw a house nearby that felt familiar to me. I was a little far from town and I figured the house could shelter me from the rain and protect me from the dog. As I ran towards it, I thought, "What if it's locked?" Immediately after that I had what felt like a memory. I'm not sure if these were just false memories or if they were from a long forgotten dream. What I remembered was that there was a bone in the doghouse that acted as a key to the door.

      I ran to the dog house and grabbed the bone inside. It looked like the remains of a human hand. When I turned around, the dog was right in front of me. It jumped onto me and knocked me to the muddy ground. It bit my arm as I tried to protect my face. I pushed him off and ran to the porch. There were odd holes on the surface of the door. I had another memory, a vision of me putting the fingers of the hand into those holes to unlock the door. So I did exactly what I saw in the memory. I heard a click and I opened the door and went inside. I slammed the door shut and the dog ran into it. He growled and scratched at the door for a minute before running off.

      I walked into the foyer and had another memory. The memory was of me walking in and greeting a woman. She seemed strange. "Why am I having these memories?" I asked myself. "Are these memories from a dream? Is this a dream?" I did my reality check where I feel the dream and it was a success.
      I could feel that I was dreaming. I probably should have just left the house and done one of the things on my to-do list. I didn't leave though because I was curious about these weird memories.

      The house was dark, but there was still enough light for me to look around. At the end of the foyer was a door and behind it I remembered that there was a storage room. There was also a staircase in the foyer, but something told me to avoid it. To the left was a living room and to the right was a dining room. The longer I was in the house, the more uneasy I felt. Everything around me felt sinister.

      Out of nowhere I had a memory that simply told me where I was. I was in what was known as the witch's house. "Oh shit, where's the witch at?" I said quietly. I remembered that the witch was evil and she had done something horrible to me. I then heard someone opening the door behind me. I transformed my hand into a dragon hand and turned around to attack the person who walked in. I pushed her against the door and I was about to slit her throat with my claws, but I stopped. Due to the circumstances, I thought it was the witch who came in, but it was actually River, my dream guide.

      "Sorry," I said as I let go of her, "I could have sworn you were someone else." She was soaking wet and trying to dry out her hair. "But I thought you could always sense who was nearby," She said. "Normally I can," I said, "but all I can sense in this place is evil." She walked into the living room and took a rest on the couch. Nothing seemed to be bothering her. "It does feel a little weird here, but I think you're over reacting," she said. "What are you doing here anyways?" I asked her. "I came in here to get out of the rain and because I saw you walk in here." She said. I think she was stalking me again, but that was the least of my worries. I decided it would better to get us somewhere safe instead of searching for my memories. "River, get up, we're going home," I said. "But we just got here," she said, "Let's take a look around." I tried to open the door, but it was stuck and I couldn't get out. So I figured I didn't really have a choice other than to look around.

      I went into the living room and sat on the couch with River. I was hoping that I would remember something if I sat in the room. I wasn't able to come up with any memories though. "Are you okay? You're dripping with blood," she said. After she said that, I realized that my left arm had been bleeding since I was bitten by the dog. I then had a memory of me lying on the floor in the living room. I was bleeding and the witch was standing over me with a bloody dagger. She apparently needed my blood for something. This memory disturbed me.

      River started to shake me because I wasn't paying attention. "Don't worry about it, I'm fine," I said. "Let me heal it," she said. She placed her hands over my wound and she tried to use her magic to heal me. There was only a spark of light however. "Aww, my magic isn't working here," She said. "The witch must have used an enchantment or something that prevents the use of magic," I said. River then wrapped bandages around my wound and it started to feel better.

      After that, we walked back into the foyer. I was planning to search the dining room and River started to walk up the stairs. This brought back another memory. In the memory, I was being dragged up the stairs by the witch and thrown into a room. I didn't seem to have much fight left in me. The room had blood pooling on the floor and gore splattered on the walls. There was some kind of tree growing in the center. The roots and branches of the tree started moving. They were violent and began to grab me and attack me. I think the tree was carnivorous and trying to eat me.

      The roots and branches grabbed my arms, legs, and head and lifted me into the air. They started pulling and were trying to tear my body apart. I didn't have enough strength to resist it. Then without thinking, I breathed fire at the tree and it started to burn. The tree dropped me back into the pool of blood. It then began to splash itself with blood in an attempt to put out the fire. I used this time to escape, though I'm not sure how.

      When I came out of the memory, I realized that the tree is most likely still alive and that River might open its door. I ran up the stairs to River and she opened the door I was worried about. She looked into the room and said, "I think I'm going to be sick." A bloody root then grabbed her foot right at the moment I grabbed her. She was screaming as it tried to pull her in. I was strong enough to pull River away from it and I slammed the door shut on the root. She was safe now, but I think she passed out. I carried her down into the living room and laid her on the couch.

      I figured the living room was safe enough for her to be alone, so I left to search the dining room. There wasn't really anything there worth noting except another memory it triggered. This memory was before all the violent stuff started happening. I was sitting at the table and she made me some tea. I didn't notice it at the time, but the memory showed me that she had put some sort of poison or drug in the tea. After taking a sip of the tea, I fell to the floor and nearly passed out. It explains why I didn't have much fight in me before.

      I don't think there were really anymore rooms with memories tied to them left for me to explore. I decided I would go into the kitchen to see if I could find a way out. Something didn't feel right about the kitchen though. I stepped on the tile floor and immediately jumped back as a spike came out of the tile I stepped on. A spike rises out of the floor when you step on a tile. Apparently there was something worth guarding beyond the kitchen. I figured I could avoid the spikes if I ran around and jumped a lot, so I did just that.

      There was a door on the other side of the kitchen and I assumed that the witch's secret was behind that door. I sensed that there was something dangerous about the door. I opened the door and I immediately rolled onto the counter to my right. The door was a trap that launched several rather large leeches at me, but I avoided them. I walked into the room and inside there was only a hole with a ladder to a basement or cellar. I didn't feel comfortable about wandering to far away from River or going down that hole alone.

      I went back to the living room to check on River. She was awake now and looked a bit better. "How are you feeling?" I asked her. She looked at me and got mad and said, "You left me!" "I saved you!" I said. She was about to yell something back at me, but I heard someone outside and whispered to her to be quiet. The person came onto the porch and I started thinking of places to hide. The storage room came to mind and I quickly snuck over to it with River. We hid inside the storage room just before they came into the house.

      I soon heard the voice of the witch say, "There's mud and blood on the floor. It seems we have visitors. Now where could they be hiding?" I thought River was about to panic, so I covered her mouth with my hand. The witch was inspecting the mud on the floor and muttering something about the mess we made. River was mad about me covering her mouth and she bit my hand. "Ouch, what was that for?" I asked. At that moment I thought we were pretty much caught because the witch surely would have heard that. Then River said, "I was trying to tell you that we can teleport away from here," she said. "Why did I never think of that?" I asked myself. "Hurry up and grab onto my necklace!" she said.

      I grabbed onto the necklace that River was wearing and we started to glow. The witch opened the door to the storage room, but she was too late. There was a flash of light and we were teleported to the Dragonborn city on the floating islands. We were now sitting under a tree in the park, taking a moment to relax. Things finally felt peaceful. "I can't believe we made it out of that house alive," I said. "What should we do now?" she asked. "I'm going to call the police and let them take care of the problem. I'm done with that place," I said.

      The dream then skipped ahead to me sitting in the back of a police van. Chris, Claire, and Kira were also sitting with me. A woman with pink hair was driving the van and a man with red hair was sitting in the passenger seat. I think the woman's name was Lola and the man's name was Rick. I assumed that they were Dragonborns. Behind the van were a few other police vehicles. We were heading back to the witch's house.

      "Why do I have to come? I'm sick of that house," I said. Lola said, "You're here because you know more about the witch and the house than anyone else does. We need you for this." Rick then said, "It was also your idea to raid the house, so it makes sense for you to come along." I turned towards the others and asked, "Why are you guys here then?" "We're here to assist you obviously," Claire said. "When was the last time we went on an adventure anyways?" Chris asked. "I'm pretty sure we went on one earlier this week." I said "Well one isn't enough! We should be having more adventures!" he said. "Why isn't Krystal here?" Kira asked. "I wanted her to stay home and make sure Lucia didn't try to come with us," I said.

      By the time we were done chatting, the van stopped and we were outside the house. We grabbed our weapons and exited the vehicle. We approached the house and the other police officers, who were likely also Dragonborns, followed behind us. The house appeared to be surrounding by sort of force field. The witch could be seen in the front window smiling at us. "Come out of the house with your hands up!" Rick shouted. "I don't think that's going to work," I said to him. "Well I have to say it," he said. The witch pulled out a wand and began shooting fireballs at us. We started shooting at her, but our bullets couldn't penetrate the force field. We then tried using our own elemental magic against the force field, but that was also ineffective.

      The witch threw a fireball straight at me and I rolled to the left. The fireball missed and blew up the van behind me. "This isn't working, I think we should send in the SWAT team!" I yelled. Lola yelled back at me, "We are the SWAT team!" "That's just not fair," I said. Rick was over behind the doghouse calling us. He appeared to be leading the "SWAT" team. Me, Chris, Claire, Lola, and Kira gathered behind the doghouse with Rick and waited for his instructions. "You," he said pointing at me, "break down the door. I'll cover you."

      I powered up and formed ball of elemental earth energy in my hands. I then charged towards the door and hit it with this ball of energy. As the door blasted apart, Rick breathed a large cloud of smoke over the area and the 6 of us rushed into the house. Me, Rick, and Lola activated our dragon sight ability so that we could see better through the smoke. I could see the witch's aura and a bunch of small gremlin-like creatures. The witch appeared to be gathering power for a spell, and the monsters were preparing to attack.

      Chris, Claire, and Kira remained hidden in the smoke while me, Lola, and Rick fought the gremlins. I did a partial dragon transformation so that I would have claws, horns, wings, and a tail to fight with. The gremlins were no match for us because they couldn't see us, but we could see them. All of their attacks were completely off and our attacks were perfect. After the gremlins were dealt with, the three of us attacked the witch. Rick fired his assault rifle at her and she created a magic shield around herself to block attacks. As Rick was distracting her, I came at her from above and destroyed her shield with a blast of fury energy. Lola then rushed in from behind pinned the witch down. By the time the smoke cleared, she was arrested and the battle seemed to be over.

      As Lola was handcuffing the witch, the witch seemed to have either died or fainted. Above her body appeared a sinister ethereal creature holding a scythe or sickle-like weapon. The only name that comes to mind when I think of it is reaper. We knew this reaper was going to put up a greater fight, so Rick ordered us to get into formation. I fully transformed into a dragon and Rick and Lola also performed partial transformations to grant them each claws, horns, wings, and a tail. Claire prepared bolts of lightning in her hands, Kira drew out her swords, and Chris readied his bow and arrow. Me, Rick, and Lola were in the front, Kira was in the middle, and Chris and Claire were in the back. The battle was ready to start back up again.

      We all attacked the reaper at once with different weapons and magical attacks, but everything phased through it. For some reason the reaper ignored everyone in the front and went straight to Claire. It tried to attack Claire, but Chris defended her. Kira attacked the reaper with her swords right at this moment and wounded it. We learned that it needed to become tangible when attacking, which is when it would be best to attack it. After being wounded though, the reaper fled down the hole in the room beyond the kitchen.

      Chris was wounded, so I told Rick, Lola, and Kira to chase after the reaper. I stayed behind to heal Chris and Claire stayed behind to yell at him. She was mad at him because he got hurt by trying to protect her. I looked at him closer and he had a large cut across his chest. I placed both hands over his wound healed him with my magic. I must be getting better at it because it only took me about a minute to heal him. I thought he would want to rest after that, but he actually wanted to keep going.

      The three of us went into the room on the other side of the kitchen and jumped down the hole. The hole dropped down into a large arena where the others were fighting the reaper. They were even getting some hits in. When the reaper saw us drop in, it stopped fighting and flew to the other side of the room. On the other side of the room was a pedestal with a bowl on top. The reaper began pouring blood out of a bottle into the bowl. "Hey! That's my blood!" I shouted. It was apparently the blood the witch took from me.

      The reaper lit the bowl on fire and escaped into a room beyond the arena. A great metal door then slammed shut behind it. Most likely due to the flaming blood ritual, a several dragons began rising out of the ground below us. "What did that thing just do?" Lola asked. "I think it used my blood to raise an army of undead dragons," I said. Considering that we were fighting undead dragons, the fight went pretty well.

      We killed a few of them, but they were beginning to overwhelm us. As we defended ourselves from the dragons, Chris noticed a scroll on the ledge above the door. I flew up there and grabbed the scroll. I read the scroll aloud, hoping that it would make something good happen. I can't remember what the scroll said, but the spell caused the dragons to become dead again and the door opened.

      There was then a sudden earthquake or explosion that knocked me off the ledge. Rick then said that me and him would be able to finish the rest of the mission. He told Lola to fly everyone out of there and to get some place safe. I wasn't sure how only the two of us would be able to handle the situation, but I trusted Rick's decision.

      We ran into the next room which was some kind of magma chamber. We had to fly over the magma to get to a chamber on the other side. "Judging by the structure of this place, there's likely an entire dragon burial ground in the next chamber," Rick said. "We have to stop that thing from resurrecting all of those dragons," I said. When we reached the burial ground, the reaper was only trying to resurrect one dragon. Because of us, it didn't have time to resurrect all the dragons. The particular dragon it was trying to resurrect though appeared to be a king.

      Using the same ritual as before, it brought the dragon to life. The reaper then possessed the dragon to gain full control of it. Rick fully transformed into a dragon and we prepared to fight. Rick charged towards it with flaming claws and got a few hits in, but the dragon knocked him back into the wall with its tail. The dragon then breathed fire at me. I countered it by throwing a blast of air at the flames. I summoned my crystal sword and ran through the scattered flames towards the dragon and tried to attack it. The dragon blocked my sword with its horns and knocked me back.

      "Keep it busy for me, I have a plan," Rick said. He flew back into the magma chamber to do something and I got back up to face the dragon. I began building up fury energy. It breathed another wave of fire at me and I generated a energy shield around me for protection. I charged at it and continued trying to slash at it with my sword.

      After a few minutes into the battle, there was huge explosion. Must have been Rick. Magma began flooding through the tunnels and into the room. When magma started flowing into the room, I unleashed a wave of fury energy at the dragon. The dragon was knocked back into the magma. It and the reaper were now gone. I knew that the whole place would be flooded soon, so I quickly started flying back out. I met up with Rick partway and he guided me towards the exit.

      I don't remember anything beyond this except that we all got out alive and lived happily ever after. I hardly write in my DJ anymore, but for some reason I felt like this one needed to be written.

      DR 3:09 I'm modding posts

      DR 4:07 Visiting gramma in K. I'm standing on a bank of a wide river with an engineer. They are filling up the flat plain with more water. I look to the right and there is a huge tidal wave of muddy water coming closer. It's winter time. People are throwing 4 squares of plastic to the water and putting a plastic sheet to top of them to make a raft. I put some MREs on the raft and we are filling up watter bottles. The wave is soming faster now and it's closer.

      DR I'm telling my mom that I just woke up from a 15 min lucid. I recall flying in the air, chasing one DC flying on a stick and asking him who he is. I remember realizing that my lucid is nice and long and it started to destabilize as I was saying that.

      My mom joined LDing forum and I'm reading responses to her post.

      DR I'm walking through a yard with freshly planted vegetables. There is a few plants pulled out of the ground, with roots and dirt still on it. I pick one up and start eating the dirt, while I ment to eat the green part. It tastes gross. I'm helping the gardener and I toss these pulled out plants into a garbage container. Then i realize, he probably just didn't plant them yet, so I take them out of trash can.

      As I'm walking away, my feet are sinking good 5 inches into the wet ground.

      I just watched Hansel and Gretel so the flying and eating dirt is most likely from it.

      DR 6:40 I'm called back to work at 10pm to work on stuff that was cancelled earlier. I drive there thinking about rain that's suppose to start.

    13. Seth, family, animals, road

      by , 02-05-2013 at 04:04 PM
      I am with Seth at my family's sea house in Montenegro. Husband is not with me and in the dream I know he is away for his work and is supposed to arrive later that day. My aunt, uncle, cousin and her three kids and my grandma are present there aswell. The house looks exactly like it does in real life, the suroundings of it however do not. My bags are under the stairs. The actual dream begins with me waking up and going downstairs and finding my grandma carrying seth and giving him to me, then leaving. My aunt and uncle are there in the dinning room that is conjoined to the living room. I see a plate of bread fried in eggs, I ask Seth if he wants to eat that for breakfast and he says Yes so I grab one piece and start giving it to him, still carrying him. Upon nearly finishing it, he says he is thirsty so I ask my aunt do we have anything he could drink. She and uncle seem very nervous and angry, not liking the fact that I am there. She answers in an annoyed tone that there is milk. I ask her if she could take it out of the fridge for me, since I am carrying Seth and feeding him and she says Fine, quite rude. She opens the fridge and takes out a huge plastic canister of milk. But the milk does not look normal. There is a separation of milk and water, the white liquid that I am assuming is milk is at top while at the bottom there is clear water and the two are swirling a bit in the middle, overlaping each other. My aunt says that the milk is not good and turns to my uncle and they start whispering. In the meantime I go back to the bread plate to get more but all of the breads are suddenly gone.I shift my attention towards my aunt and uncle and I manage to hear that aunt is telling uncle to go and buy new milk, he is dressing a white shirt and yells out Why the hell can't she *** go and *** buy it? I felt really sad at that moment, a crying moment, because I did not even ask for a new milk, so I intruded their conversation and said "It's ok, I will go and buy it.", but they continued to argue. I turned around and exited to the balcony and I saw the sea, My granda was sitting there and I told her:"The sea is more calm today". The sea itself was in much commotion, with lots of waves. She responds with :"At least its calmer then yesterday". I think for myself I should just take Seth to the beach and we swim and play, move away from all this negativity, so I leave Seth with my grandma and I go back inside to search for my swimsuit. I crouch down under the stairs where my baggage was and I take my purple handbag that is pack full with stuff and start searchng for my swimsuit. There is lots of stuff inside, on the top there is a yellow bag with 2 packs of cigars, I think for myself Whoa, we had 2 packs, why the hell did I go out to buy cigars yesterday, I get lucid there, but I give up the control of the dream. I start sifting through the bag more and I take out a plastic square box inside which is a dead little turtle. I think for myself and get a kind of a memory inside the dream that me and my husband packed out turtles to bring them to vacation with us, but that I somehow forgot to take them out of the bag. I look at the turtle and I see there is a small white egg inside aswell , aswell as a smaller one exiting the turtle. Suddenly, the turtle moves her head and looks at me for a moment,then goes back to rpevious position. It was looking rotten, decomposing. I thought oh,she is alive, I better take her to the garden fast, my cousin approaches me and asks what am I looking for,I hide the turtle bag in the bag and say Ah, just my swimsuit,I wanted to take Seth to the beach. I am looking around the living room and I see her, my aunt, uncle all looking at me with so much hate, disgust.
      Next scene, I am walking with Seth down the road towards the village, to buy the milk. It is around 19h, the sun is dying. The road looks same as in real life, its just a road with bushes and trees and all sort of green plants on both sides, stretching into mini forests. While walking I think what if a snake comes right now straight at you? and at that moment the green plants from the sides merge and completely close the road. I get scared. I look to the road and there is a huge snake moving right towards me and Seth, so I turn around and start walking back slowly. I am looking down to the road that now looks like red bricked road, but the road does not look or feel as tho it is made from brick, but from bright red mud shapped to look like a brick and there are snakes everywhere. I decide to take control of the dream and I turn the snakes into little animated paintings of fruits: strawberries, lemons, oranges, cherries are the ones I noticed. I smile and I keep walking but my stupid mind suddenly thinks Doesn't fruit attracts bugs?, so I look down to the road once again and I see lots of little bugs crawling around, I say "Enough with this shit!" and I wake myself up.

      Dream

      I was walking down a road alongside a park. I can hear a baby crying from the park. I looked over, into the park and all I can see is a women, with a bottle in one hand, who appeared to be drunk standing on the grass. The baby’s cry seemed to come from the women’s direction. I got concerned for the baby and went over to her. I figured that the woman was in no state to care for the baby so I would take her and the baby somewhere safer.

      As I walked up to the women I noticed the baby was at the women’s feet. The women noticed me walking towards her and she started to panic. She started shouting at me “It wasn’t me” and “It’s not even mine” while pointing at the baby with her free hand. I looked down at the baby and saw that the baby had some sort of object sticking in to its head. It looked like the handle off something. There was no blood.

      I picked up the baby and noticed that something was written on its forehead. In a blue ink “2806 19/03/__” The last part looked like a date but I couldn’t figure out what the last two numbers were. I knew I had to get the baby to a hospital soon. The baby was still crying. I noticed that the baby couldn’t move its neck either. I knew that the nearest hospital was up a massive hill nearby. I started running for the hill with the baby in my arms and the women stayed where she was.

      I started to shout for help to the nearby people but. Everyone refused to give me help when they saw the baby. They would run up to me to see what was wrong, but when they saw the baby they refused to even be associated with me. Finally a woman agreed to help me and ran into her house to get her car keys.

      Dream 1

      I was at a Chinese restaurant ordering some food. While I was waiting for my food I started to have a conversation with them. There were 3 of them, a farther and daughter and another guy unrelated to them. They were all Chinese. I noticed that they worked in the dark and I asked them about it. They said that in china there isn’t much light and in England there was. They wanted to work in a place that felt like home.

      Dream 2

      I was in a massive shop that sold everything. I was disguised as a cleaner there. I was trying to place a recorder in to the pillows of the beds that were on sale. I started to put some of the recorders I had in my pocket into the pillows when 2 actual cleaners turned up. They told me to get back to doing actual work. They told me to go change the sheets of the beds. They then both left and I started to change the sheets on the beds. I replaced the plain white sheet with a brown sheet with strange symbols on them.

      Dream fragment 1

      I was in a supermarket and looking for a box of chocolates. I couldn’t find them so I asked a member of staff and she couldn’t find them either.

    15. Backpacking

      by , 02-04-2013 at 05:54 PM
      I might have to start considering famous people a dream sign, this time the Crocodile Hunter was in my dreams haha.

      1. I was in a grocery store/complex of some sort, there were many many rooms in the building. The hallways had fairies everywhere except they just seemed like lights down the hall, don't remember this part very much but I wrote it in my dream journal. I started going down these hallways with small rooms in the side and once you spotted a zombie-like corpse thing, it followed you around. I remember I had some sort of inventory system in the dream and I tried to bring up a weapon, the closest thing I could find was a pickaxe. But when I tried to hit the zombie it sort of just nudged down a little bit, and I could barely move the pickaxe at all, not because it was heavy but some sort of "glitch" in my dream. Except when I nudged the pickaxe the zombie flew away down the hall. After that I got scared and I kept opening rooms to find the crocodile hunter. I knew he was somewhere in the building and I opened this one room down to some sewer system and the water was waist-deep. I found the crocodile hunter going down one of the halls in the sewer with a torch. The sides of the walls were made up of bricks, almost like in boo's haunted house in mario 64 except less cartoon looking. After a few seconds I get teleported to another part of the building. And I find the front of the store has cash registers like the whole building is a giant grocery store or something. What is strange is every clerk was a hot blonde girl, they all seemed to be talking to each other but they stuck in their respective cash register places. I thought this was very strange because hot girls are so rare, but then I kept going because I wanted to find the Crocodile Hunter again. I went back to the sewer and he was still holding the torch, then after a few seconds the dream was over.

      2. One fragment of another Dream I had was that I was just walking around with a heavy backpack. I was walking around some city at first and I remember walking down some streets with just garages on one side and the backs of some stores on the other side. There was also a scene where there was a circular giant sidewalk with artistically designed bricks on the ground and I was looking at myself walk towards where I was looking at myself from. On the left of where I was looking was a street, no one else was there but there were cars in the background. I don't remember parking my car but I remember my car got towed, I went back to the place I parked it, which was some random persons driveway lol. I put my gloves and hat on the driveway and laid them all out neatly for some reason, when the family got home and parked their car on the side of the street.

      Another fragment I remember from the dream was I was walking behind a middle school, and two girls were just walking home at that time, except it was extremely strange because it was midnight. I was so confused that I just stared and wondered what they were doing at this time of night, but I kept walking. Then I found a construction crew not really doing any work but just talking amongst themselves and just glancing at me as I go by.

      I feel as if there were more of the dream where I walked on some nature trails but I just do not remember it.
