non-lucid

Dream Lucid Semi-lucid

Tuesday, October 18, between 07.00 to 09.30
I do not remember much but I was with a group of 5-10 persons that had ability for finding each other in dreams. We could in a way find each other by deep meditation and use visual abilities. I remember looking at us as the guys in Inception. We were constantly in danger but we were good at what we did. Too bad I do not remember more here.

I was on a sort of cruise ships but cannot remember by whom, and remember not so much from the beginning here. But there was something that happened to the ship and I think we got hit by something and the ship was leaking but we just continued going. I remember dreaming lucid within the dream and made it several times. One of the times I confront a woman who was chasing me and smashed her face with my hands. Another dream was when I went to the top of a building I know but I was climbing in a turn staircase on the outside of the building. This was in poor condition and half way up the building I froze and got panic. Then the building began to rotate around in the air and I threw the building and myself down in a lake and I woke up in the dream. When I woke up I was lying inside wrapped in a blanket on the floor. I remember the others on the cruise ship thought it was very funny when I was dreaming because I always did so many strange things in my sleep.

Suddenly, we came to the destination and I started packing my things but I struggled hard to find them all. The time was critical due to the boat's condition so everything had to be done in haste.

The next thing I remember is that we are getting back somewhere and cruise ship is still in poor condition. I stand behind the ship and see a zombie-like people who jump into the water and swim rapidly towards us. Then something happens and suddenly I change body and stands on land together with 4-5 of these zombies and I'm one of that myself. The body was very slimy and the face was deformed and a little bloody. We are waiting for the cruise ship coming around a rock and then attack. I must have been semi-lucid here because I was afraid they would find out that I was not one of them. Each of the zombies smiles and murmur when the ship coming before they go to the water's edge and I do the same to not be discovered.

The scene changes and now I'm at the house of my parents in Norway. The whole city is under attack by the zombies and they are in thousands. I now have my own body and climbing up a wall on the road outside the house that is so high that they cannot get hold of me. I call my father and tell him what is happening and worried that my brother and his children will come back the city during the attack. Eventually there comes a big Chinese guy with a trolley with some objects inside. He runs up the wall I stand on and study me but see that I am not a zombie. Then he takes hold of me and put me down on the ground by the trolley. Then he grows bigger and beats his chest like King Kong and roaring and running and eating up zombies. Then the other objects in the trolley transform to more Chinese guys and in few minutes are all the zombies consumed. I go into the house that is now safe and is happy that both Tengkva and Tengmo (my dogs) have survived. But then suddenly three small puppies coming and I think that Tengkva have give birth. But then I realize it is Tengmo who have give birth but he is a boy so I became lucid but wake up at that time.

[COLOR="silver"]Last day it was horror movie night at my school, so I watched The grudge and Insidious.
I was a little afraid that I would dream nightmares, but I haven't had nightmares for years so I was actually hoping to have one so I could become lucid. But no I didn't had any. This night I set an alarm to wake me up and force me to get out of bed.[/COLOR]

[COLOR="blue"]I dreamt something about me being on a really high skateboard ramp and it was really vivid, but then my WBTB alarm woke me up, so I realised that I had been dreaming.

I fell asleep again and I dreamt that I took Iphone photos on my friends from different angles and I met some friends that I appearntly knew.

Then I was in my school and had a blanket over me that I could look through and I sang something. Andriano my friend told me that he hadn't got his essay back and I said that I forgot to write his name on the essay we wrote together so I had got all the credit. I wrote his name on the paper too and then told what had happend to our teacher.[/COLOR]

[COLOR="silver"]Then I woke up. I think that the pillow speaker only can wake me up if I sleep light.
But sometimes I don't so I think I am going to use the iphones speaker and hopefully I don't disturb anyone else.[/COLOR]

Fragment
(Ugh. Completely lost a lucid dream. )

All I really remember is being in the middle of a huge fire-fight, in an office building type of setting. During the gunfight, there was an opposing team trying to storm into our office, and they were shooting through the cubicle walls that we were trying to take up shelter behind. I remember that they were beginning to flank around the sides of the barriers, and I tossed a grenade into one corner of the office, taking out a few of the first gunmen to breach our (shoddy) defense. Running out of places to shield myself, I became lucid. That liberating feeling of being in the thick of a dangerous situation - and then realizing it's all a dream - surged through me. Fearless, I jumped over what was left of my thin shield of wood and sheet metal, that was my cubicle wall, I walked toward the gunmen, threatening to them all that they must either throw down their guns and walk away, or I was seriously about to fuck them all up, single-handedly.

Don't remember anything that happened after that, though.

I was at the summit of a huge mountain (which might have been Olympus, because I was focusing on the 'become a Greek God' Task of the Month), and fighting some giant, witch-like person/creature/thing. She had been chasing some girl (whom I think might have been MJ) and I through an roof-less corridor, toward the edge of the mountain, and then we would have to jump out of the way, at the last moment, to try to send her stumbling off of the cliffside. We actually failed at this, a time or two, and ended up falling off, ourselves. Then, the dream would 'reset' itself, and we would have to try again. The last time, all three of us went over the edge, and I was able to grab on to a ledge with one hand and help hold on to MJ with the other, while the witch plunged to her death.

Dream Fragment One
I had been having sex with either MJ or GV. I can't remember which, but it was soon afterward, that I was sitting at my computer, while she slept in the background, naked. Someone walked into the room to tell me something. The door had already been open, and once they relayed the message, they looked over to see the girl, sprawled out on the bed, and then quickly stepped out, closing the door behind him as if he was embarassed at what he'd seen.

Later, I was in some bar with a couple of friends. I believe that K (ROTC) was one of them. He got up on stage and began doing some karaoke, which I usually wouldn't be caught dead doing (despite the fact that I can sing fairly well), but seeing him up there kind of emboldened me to do the same. (Actually, I remember a Facebook post from K, the other day, where he was talking about getting a singing group together, just for the hell of it.). I don't think I ever got a chance to sing, though.


Dream Fragment Two
I really only remember on scene out of this. I was being chased by an enormous, armored horse and rider, through a path in the woods. The horse was about the size of an elephant, and the muscular rider was fairly preportional. The horse continued to charge, as if it was looking to run me down, as a matter of its own, personal satisfaction. At some point during the chase, I was seeing myself from a third person perspective, and it was almost like I was 'guiding' myself through the woods. It felt like I was playing a video game, and I was the avatar. I don't remember ever actually have a controller or anything, but I noticed how hard it was to kind of 'control' myself, like the avatar wasn't very responsive to where I want to go, and it was really cumbersome to keep distance between my pursuer and myself.

I'm on my way to sleep when I see this huge goldfish swimming circles around my bed. It's about 3 feet long, and it's just swimming there in my HI. Normally I don't get HI like this, but it was off the charts today. After that it slowly turned into a mermaid, and then I tried to get out of bed, and woke up

Finally I find myself in a dream. I'm in some dark old abandoned mansion with about three to four other people, and we all have weapons. There are werewolves in this house, and everyone is afraid to go. I man up, and tell them I will be the point guy, and everyone follows me. We travel down this long hallway, and then it splits off in to two. (I head right just like in my previous dream) and everything seems too quiet. We were all armed to the teeth with weapons, and I had my fatigues on as well.

We came across two rooms that looked completely trashed. Pillows were ripped, the bed was ripped, and there was stuffing scattered about. Broken chairs, lamps and tables matched the bed perfectly. The second room was about the same except there was a corps in there. He had no head, and the blood that hung down his chest was close to hemolizing, but not all the way. It twinkled as the flash lights of my squad mates surveyed the area.

Suddendly I whispered loudly "turn off your lights, it's still here!". Soon as the lights went out, all hell broke loose. I don't remember what gun I was shooting at, but I was firing from the hip, and not letting up. The werewolf rushed me and kept taking the blows. There was a rattle of machine gun fire that rang out between each of my blasts, and just when it got close to me, it dropped dead.

We continued on a little less cautiously, but I had the feeling that wasn't the end of it. As we made our way down the hall, not even to the next room, we were suddenly attacked. Obviously it's heading straight for me again this time. Flashing it's long sharp teeth and yellowish eyes, the brown behemoth pounced at me. It was almost as the volley of bullets that were sent to his back only propelled him even farther. I dodged, and ran in the direction he came from. As he hurried towards me, I ran backwards and continued shooting him. He must have been smarter and stronger than the previous one because he took my squad mates out one by one as he passed them. Soon we're running in circles and I really don't think I'm going to make it. Finally he gets to me......


I wake up in another part of the mansion, as if I've respawned. The rest of the crew was there looking unscathed. The first thing that came out of my mouth was spreading out and being mobile. I woke up (in SP) before we could start our journey all over again

I remembered the whole dreams the whole morning, but since I didn't get to write any of it down until now, I have forgotten most of the dreams and now only have parts of them .

The first interesting thing is that today being the day after I decided to try lucid dreaming again I woke up precisely at 4:34 AM. When I saw the time, I wondered if this was the same time I used to get up 2 years ago to do my WBTB WILDs that were never successful. I checked my offline alarms and there it was! "4:34 AM WILD Recurrent Alarm". I thought that was Extremely awesome so I took it as an opportunity to try it again.

(The dream I had at that time that I woke up had to do with arguing or something, which is understandable because I fell asleep in a not-so-good mood.)

Anyway, after waking up at 4:34, I got up, woke myself up completely, and then went back to bed to try WILDing. Unfortunately, I just got really scared because the day before, I watched 'The Fourth Kind' and I always get scared the most by scary movies at night when I'm alone. So I decided to go downstairs and watch TV instead to help clear my mind of any negativity, where I fell asleep and had a dream:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The first part of the dream that I remember is where I am in the online game world of 'AION'. I'm wearing some nice light armor and using a Bow and Arrows to train on large pigs or something. I am in a beautiful overgrown enchanted forest, and I recall being in very similar dreams before. There are many other Elyos training with me. They seem to be very focused on the kill while I am mostly just enjoying the feeling of being one with the deep enchanted forest. It is quiet and so so peaceful.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next part of the dream that I remember is where I am in a nice apartment building that is apparently my friend's, Sarah's. This apartment building is huge and beautifully decorated. The carpet is red, and all rooms are cozy and comfortable. I am going back up the elevator to Sarah's home. I can't recall which floor she's on. I pick 5. I walk out the elevator. I walk down the hall and turn to my left where there is a huuge room with winding stairs along the curved walls. The stairs are wooden with gold in some parts, and the steps are of an elegant deep red carpet. The walls are of a warm brown colour I think, perhaps it was dark wood. There are traditional candles lighting up the walls and a beautiful cristal chandelier on the center of the room. There is also some furniture, but I can't recall exactly what and where it was.
I start walking up the stairs, confused about where I'm supposed to find Sarah's apartment. A boy that is a year younger than me runs up the stairs, catches up with me, and asks me if I'm lost. He looks like this Asian-American guy from last year's English class that I had a crush on, but I don't question if it is actually him or someone who looks like him.
I lie down on the stairs, stare up at the ceiling, sigh and say "yeah. I'm trying to find my friend's, Sarah's apartment, but I forgot everything about where it might be."
He lied down next to me and stared up at the ceiling with me. "hmm." He said. "I think she's on the <don't remember> floor."
"Yeah, that's what I thought too, but I didn't see her there."
"Maybe her apartment will show up if you check again?"
"Yeah. For now I think I'll just enjoy this view of the stars." (Somehow the ceiling was the starry sky at this point)
The stars were just as I'd remembered them at the cottage last Summer. They gave off almost the same enchanted feeling that the dense forest gave off from the Aion portion of the dream - but I only acknowledged this while studying the dreams after waking up.

Then I think I get up and search more with that guy. We talk while we search, at one point we end up on the roof top where we get a beautiful view of the stars - which is also the landscape somehow... The stars are the view below us as well is what I mean. This does not seem strange to me however. I simply enjoy the peacefulness of everything. Then we continue searching, and eventually we find what I've been looking for. Sarah's apartment! Which ends up being my family's and my apartment. It looks very very nice. I question the strangeness of how it is my apartment a little, but get preoccupied with my mom asking me to do some things. The guy is gone. I saw Sarah there, but couldn't know exactly where she was, it was as if she was an apparition, but I did not question it. We had food that I recall thinking of being very good food but can't remember what the food was or tasted like.
A part of this dream also exists where I meet my brother's fiancee's sister, who in real life I've been told has eyebrows that make her look angry all the time, and I find out (in the dream) that my brother dated her before too. :/

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The last part of the dream that I recall was at some desert place that I can compare to what I think of Area 51. There are about 7 nuclear balloons floating in the sky that are in danger of exploding!! Each nuclear balloon is responsible for the energy in almost each continent of the world - Africa, North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Australia, and not Antarctica! The seventh balloon is called "THE WORLD." It is presumed that if any of these balloons blow up, their respective areas will be be blown up also. Meaning if the World balloon blew up, that would mean the end of the world.
For some reason my Dad is there with me. He runs to the gunner on the right and aims at the largest balloon (label unknown ) while I stand there motionless watching the action.
The dream switches to first person shooter mode, where I am my Dad shooting at the balloons. There is a bar on the top left corner showing the remaining life of the balloon I am shooting. For some reason, shooting the balloons will keep them from exploding. I acknowledge that the life bar may perhaps indeed prove the opposite, but I ignore this fact and do what I think I have been instructed to do! I keep shooting the balloon.

:edit: I just searched for the balloons that were in the dream and they looked exactly like this one, but only the balloon part, not the basket:



This turns out to be a 1861 civil war balloon. Interesting huh. (I've never seen this balloon before in my life, and in the dream I was shooting at it) Seeing as I was my Dad in this part of the dream, shooting at the balloons for illogical reasons I knew not of, I think it could have been a past life of my dad.

(That nuclear balloon part of the dream did not have that enchanted feeling like the other parts had. It was more of a thrilling happy feeling)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Then I wake up.

Im somehow in indonesia very late at night. In my friend pierces van on the streets. we are just parked in the street in some weird traffic thing. Chris tyler pierce and omar are there. we want to get hash or something so i call someone in australia and ask them. i forget if he even answers. my friends are outside of the van and im going to sleep. For some reason something is sexual but i just go to sleep. when i go to sleep im mostly conscious and after a bit i wake up and write this.

Ah now i remember some more.

Unity.
I was going to get a tattoo of the symbol for unity that i have created. I remember while still dreaming that my friend was about right now in indonesia and planning on getting a flower tattoo...


It seems i frequently have these dreams that i achieve half lucidity but dont go further because a thought that ill just wake up or its just a day dream etc come into my head for some reason. i have just identified this.

My recall was terrible last night so I only remember a short fragment which is too bad. But I think in general it is getting a lot better. (3 months ago I couldn't even remember any dreams.)

I'm still at only 1 lucid but all day awareness and RCs are definitely helping, I actually ended up doing an RC in one of my dreams the other night but I never became lucid.

Anyway, still practising. My goal is to achieve lucids almost everyday, which would be amazing. Definitely trying to make it happen.

Anyway, that's it for today!

-Cheers!

Fragment 1
I’m in a train station bathroom in Portugal with a guy named Sandro. We had to wait for the train so we used the bathroom in the meantime. The bathroom looked very dark. I remember being really hot and dry so I took off my shirt and put it underneath the tap. Sandro asked what I was doing but we soon realised the train was here so we rushed out of the bathroom and got on this red – looking, double decked bus; Similar to the ones seen in London.
I had a glasses case with me on the station platform just before we got on. The glasses case held our tickets. Sandro just rushed on the tram heading upstairs while I showed the woman who was driving our tickets. Sandro looked quite surprised. I guess he was surprised that I actually still held the tickets because he thought I lost them.

When we get off the tram, we are at the beach. I see one of my friends from school, Alex and say hi to him. The station we get off at looks very much like a beach area. I remember it being sunny and quite busy.

NOTES

Just got back into this whole dreaming malarky, so I'll upload all the dreams I never got around to typing up before I took a break.
(There is definately something missing here, I could remember it when I first woke up.) I have just walked out onto a field, possibly from school. The field reminds me of the Aston Fields (My old middle-school.) playing field. But with a road running through the half of the field on my left. I notice a small red motorbike at the other side of the field. I immediately realise that the bike is the new Metallica album. (What... the... fuck?) and start sprinting towards it. Now I am close to the motorbike, and watch it change into a red car and then a red house as I get closer. A menu appears in my vision, I believe it was the album's song-list, the album was called Echobrain.

Well, this was an interesting dream.
I was complaining to this woman and her son about how "it" wasn't much of a challenge.
"What's not much a challenge,"the woman inquired.
"This! All this! This...dream...All these dreams are so dull and boring! The last time I told anyone in the Dream World it was a dream, they laughed and made it seem like I was the idiot for not knowing from the very start!"
We heard a gasp and her son looked worried.
"I...I'm not real,"he asked, tears coming to eyes.
"Ah, jeez...,"I muttered guiltily.
His mother glared at me and said,"Thanks. Thanks for shattering the kid's hopes and dreams."
I explained things over to him and he seemed to start thinking that it was a good idea. After all, as long I'm not shot or something, the kid's hopes and dreams are intact.
"But, you know,"I said afterward,"there has to be one person that it would actually infuriate if they found out I was dreaming."
The woman pointed towards me and said,"Uh, like that?"
All of a sudden, I felt someone attack me from behind and bite my arm--hard.
"What the ----?!"
Surprised, I turned and saw my mother, an angry look in her eyes. I wanted to laugh.
"This is what I'm talking about! Even in my dreams, you're a pain to deal with!"
More snarling.
"Haha! Please. If you think attacking me means I'm going to consider this dream a nightmare, you have another thing coming."
More biting.
"Okay, now you're pissing me off."
I picked her up and body slammed her down onto the ground. I bent down low and murmured," You ain't got nothing on the real thing."
Then, I "woke up".
I looked around and sighed in relief. It was just a stupid dream. I glanced at my arm and saw a huge bite mark. Infuriated, I stormed out my room to complaint about it. Then, I woke up for real.

Non-Lucid throughout the entirety of the dream.

Dream starts with me having a guitar jam with Guthrie Govan, one of my favourite guitarists. My parents then drive up to the street in which we're playing and tell me that I need to get in the car because we're going to a friend's house for a pool party. It is a long drive so I fall asleep in the car on the way there.

I wake up at my friend's house, get out of the car and head into the garden, where both the pool and all of the people are.
Everyone is asleep. The sunbeds are at the bottom of the pool, and people are sleeping normally there. The pool has overflowed to an extent that the whole surrounding area is a metre underwater, yet everyone can still breathe. I carefully look around, before wading around the flooded edges , where around ten of my friends are all sleeping underwater. I glance into the clear depths of the pool to see my uncle. He is swimming breaststroke, completely naked. He keeps swimming in circles, never looking up.

At this point, I wake up in my own bed. I look around my room, to see that it is fairly well-lit. There is an oscillating white fan suspended from the ceiling, towards the back of my room. My cupboard is wide open, and tens of small mechanical aeroplanes are peeking out from the shelves within. They are made of silvery metal and are of varying shape. Some of them are even on top of the cupboard. When the fan turns towards them, it blows air past their propellers, making them rotate rapidly. It looks as if they are flying. When the fan moves away, the propellers stop. Suddenly two of the planes fly towards me - slowly, not aggressively. I catch them, and try to see if I can make them fly too, so I throw them back towards the cupboard and the rest of the planes. They both crash gently on the floor, and then I wake up for real.

Very strange and vivid dream - I was eased into this dream with the help of binaural beats (I was testing them out to see if they worked for me, which they seemed to). It says a lot about my awareness that I didn't even realise it was a dream XD.

Comments are welcome - I am new to this so if you have advice please share it with me

this was my second dream i remember...the other one was just me doing a bunch of boring every day stuff....it's been a few hours since i woke and i don't remember it anymore

second one....i was in a sporting goods store with my best friend....and there was a small arcade to the right of the entrance.....she went in and went to the arcade and i kept trying to follow her but i couldn't hear what she was saying and she was moving too fast for me......and my legs kept hurting and my knees kept giving out on me and i had a hard time walking without falling.....and then we were looking at shoes and trying to find sneakers because she has really small feet and they only have shoes that look like they are for little kids in her size at the regular stores....we didn't find any shoes she likes....and i went out to the car to get my phone and i came back in and the manager said i couldn't come in because the store is about to close and they aren't letting anymore people in......and i told him my friend was in their and he said he would make an announcement for her to just go to her car to meet me when she was done.....and i told him that wouldn't work because she has her music on and not her hearing aids and wouldn't be able to hear it....he let me in to find her......

she was at the bathrooms and had found a few things and had them in a cart.....we were looking at the backpacks and there were only very small differences.....she said they all looked exactly the same but i kept pointing out the very small differences...then i fell again.....and the manager saw.....and it took me a bit to get back up and i looked like i was in a lot of pain....and i had to hold on to stuff to get up......he said he was going to call the triage nurse and to not move but i told him to not...

she shows up a minute later while i'm still arguing with him and had just managed to stand up.....(she looks exactly like the triage nurse from my school.....same outfit and everything)....she asks to see my leg and kind of just grabs it and brings it up to about hip height and held it straight out....something i used to be able to do irl before the pain got to be too much for me......since i didn't look to be in pain......she asked if it was numb and that was why it was hard to stand.....i just stared at her with my mouth open because she had a pin in her hand and needles freak me out.....and she started to roll up my pants leg.....and i started saying no needles and trying to pull my leg away.....and she said it was a thumb tack and not a needle...and it turned into one and she held it out in her hand and i threw it.....she let go to go get it....and i started crawling around between the clothing racks.....i was really fast.....and i looked back and the clothing was still swaying from where i'd originally been......and the manager saw me and he pointed me out and i moved again really fast.....and the only reason they could see where i went was because i kept looking at them....and i crawled out to where i could see the registers while they were looking on the other side of the store for me......and i stood up shakily and limped over to the registers and texted my friend to meet me there....and my text had the words that i put in....even after i looked away to see if they were still looking for me......the words didn't change...they saw me...and i looked away quick....and the cashier was making small talk with me because i said i was just waiting for my friend.......and the nurse and manager stood at the doors facing the registers.......and the nurse said that she just wants to help and that no one should push because she doesn't want anyone to get hurt......and there was a person behind me so the only way i could go was her direction....and i saw her coming towards me out of the corner of my eye....she had an orange shirt......and i looked at it and then her face and she made eye contact with me and then i woke up

A dream from a few weeks ago, I got some catch up to do!

I was walking through ruins composed of the remains of what looked like a brick structure and several other structures making up the size of about two houses. The ground was made of sand and there was no sign of any other structures in the distance.

I lived there and had a few furnishings spreed throughout the ruins such as a bed next to the remains of a couple of walls, a small dresser and a table all spaced apart.

Out of nowhere a flock of tourist shows up and starts walking through my ruins taking pictures, most of them in Hawaiian shirts and carrying fancy cameras with huge lenses. I begin to yell at them, saying that I live there and that they can't be here without permission.

One of them started to go through a drawer in my table and I ran over to him and asked him what he was doing. He responded with something like "I can do whatever I want, what is it to you?" I was suddenly holding a bag I own with my hard drives in it and a shoved the tourist against the wall and thrust-ed the bag at his head. It landed with a thud on the table next to him and his face filled with fear. I angrily told him that this was my home and that they needed to get out. He said he was just here to see the ghosts, and I told him I didn't care and that he needed to leave.

I released him from my angry grasp and he began to back away still scared. Suddenly a ghost appeared behind me, and called out to me. I turned around, said hi, and began to talk to him. We had clearly been friends for awhile.

All of the tourists stopped what they were doing and stared blankly at the phenomenon I was talking to. We continued to catch up and I took his hands in a friendly gesture. Holding hands I walked with him suspended several feet in the air well over the tourists heads. They were all still frozen with amazement.

There was a large eerie castle completely black in the dead of night. It was composed of many thin, tall, rectangular sections with points erected at the tops of them. It was almost its own island in a large ravine, and the only way to it was a skinny crumbling bridge that was an extension of the edge of the cliff.

There was a stone or concrete wall on the cliff side of the bridge that snaked to the horizon and bent around to make a small room enclosed at one end buy a metal gate. The room was apparently a large shower and I was showering in there as people walked by. No one seemed to notice I was there and I didn't really care anyway.

At the top of the castle appeared my mom and a man my mother had dated irl, George. They looked down at me and even thought they were extremely far away I could see them and hear them like they were next to me, and I know the same was for them.

George started to talk to me and I watched as his gaze drifted to my naked body. I yelled at him to look me in the eye and he looked for a moment and then drifted again. I spent a good amount of the dream yelling at him getting more and more angry until I decided to leave. I walked to the gate and realized that it was unlocked. I thought it had been locked that whole time and was suddenly set back.

I continued to yell at George until I woke up.

I'm just getting to my new duty station, and it's night time. The receptionist hands me a key, and I head towards where I'm supposed to be going. After walking down a long dark hallway and making a right, I find my room. When I open the door, I see B, and two other guys. They start talking crap and one guy holds me down, and one of them grabs a scalpel. He slowly carves into my right bicep about a centimeter deep and about three centimeters long. The pain is agonizing, and it feels like my arm is on fire. The guy scoops a portion of my tissue out, and feeds it to the other guy. Then he tells B to eat some as well. He was reluctant to do so, but eventually he did. He finally eats a piece himself, and they go about it doing it again. This time he makes B eat two pieces, and he doesn't eat one himself. They finally let me go, and I walked out of the room. I saw my brother, and I started to tell him about what happened. I told him that they were lucky that I didn't have my gun on me because I would have killed all of them.
