non-lucid

a
March 1, 2011

I think this peanut butter I am eating for increased vividness is not only working very well it is helping me increase my recall. This first dream is very long and is chaotic which is characteristic of dreams earlier in the night which usually are not remembered. Nothing lucid though.

Dream 1 : Train of Destruction
There was some random stuff going on before this.
It was dark at night and I could barely see things happening. This was a place like Alaska in the summer, rural, tons of pine trees, and small town feeling. Me and some of the malcontents of the small rural town created a crazy rail-mega-truck thing. The center was a rail car that had old trucks connected to it on both sides, it was huge and we got it to go really fast and then burst off the track into the woods busting itself and anything in its way to hell. This was done just outside of town and may have killed people but we obviously didn’t care, the town’s people were scum. I felt bad at this feeling after thinking about it, ‘would I feel OK if there was a little girl killed in there?’ I decided to get away from what we had done and the jerks doing it by leaving town.
Under the few street lights I saw police cars looking cars over looking for the people that created that crash in the woods. They saw me but let me pass so I figured they didn’t know me or my car yet.
I am now in the dark metal like room and there is a guy there trying to calm me. He says something about “it taking effect soon” and figure I have been drugged somehow. There is a metal chair that looks like people could be strapped into it and I have to wonder if I have been made to talk about what happened before.
Then I am in a New York suburb in an empty lot. The lot is surrounded by apartment buildings and a typical chain link fence. There is an oldish guy looking like a retiree sipping iced tea in his lounge chair on his tiny back porch. I went over to him and he said something like he was impressed with my progress. Then I feel that he and others have “made me” like I am some kind of clone. I plan to escape. Figuring he may know what I would plan to do I do something totally random and ad lib and I run to the other side of the lot and then hide down under the very tall weeds and crawl to the other corner. When I come up there are 2 women looking for me frantically. The leader of the 2 says regretful “we were stressing him” to make me better. I ran out of the lot at inhuman speeds and out to the street. I had no idea where this was even though the lot I just came from seemed oddly familiar. I took a right and ran up the street than I started walking fast to not attract attention. I knew I had to get more distance between me and those people in the lot. Passing some shops and pubs to my right there was a street corner just up ahead. Then I recognized the guy on the corner [Charlie Sheen], could he be one of “them?” He was talking to other on the corner and turned to see me and nodded at me knowingly. His nod was one of ‘I got your back’ but I was too paranoid to care and ducked in the door I was at when he nodded at me. It was dark in here I could barely see anything but rushed down the hallway. Then at the end the light was visible and I recognized this as what I call ‘proximity light’ which is light that is only visible at a certain distance, a dream world invention and a little extra vividness entered the dream, I was more clear now. I hurriedly opened the door at the end of the hallway and slammed the door shut but it didn’t close but I didn’t care too much I had to get to the phone. There was a guy standing there reading the paper like he was minding the place [he was dressed in 1930s brown pants and suspenders and vertical stripped dress shirt] he just moved out of my way. There was a box on the wall that held the phone I pulled out the one piece ear piece to the old phone and was worried that I couldn’t say something into the phone and put it to my ear and looked for the piece you talk into. Before anything else, I heard a voice on the other side say in acknowledgement “I got the car”. I knew I get my way out and instantly calmed down.

This was in a wooden wall box.

Darkness

Dream 2: 2 Pink Fro’s
I was looking at 2 strange looking guys all in pink. They where white guys with huge pink afros, pink shirts, pink pants and shoes. There faces were made up to look peach colored in an artificial way. They just stood there looking like there was a camera watching them, posing.

Darkness

Dream 3: Washing a Boat
I was washing a boat in a dream world that was very familiar to me. I had some friends that came into a lot of money but never showed it too much but this was a dream world created to express their desire to flaunt their riches. In their driveway they had a Cadillac and an expensive boat up on the trailer thing. I was washing it and getting paid of course but it was ridiculously easy and fun to be around so much wealth. Then the father of this wealthy family came out to see a friend of his [I have no idea who this guy is] and after saying pleasantries,
Friend: “how’s it going these days?”
Rich guy: “not bad, just have some gambling debts to pay off.”
The friend didn’t answer knowing that there was probably going to be a mention of money.
Rich guy: “You wouldn’t mind loaning me some money would you?”
Friend: “No I really don’t have any money after my family.”
Rich guy: Smiles, like a mob boss, knowing that now he knows he can lightly threaten the “friend’s” family to coerces him to give the loan.

Darkness

Dream 4: Gold Tea Strainers
I am seeing gold tea strainers that look a little like little globes of vertical lines. I can feel they are 99% gold and like looking at them and moving them in my hand.

Wow didn't know these existed till I Googled them!
I knew what they were but kept thinking they look like earrings. Getting a good look at them again I can see why.

There were 3 more very short dreams which I didn’t feel were worthy getting up to record.

Last night's dreams are vary fragmented. I can only remember discussing a broken sandblaster hose at cornerstone. And the second fragment was in my truck, Rachel and Becky were with me telling me that the truck needed oil but I disagreed until we came to a stopsign then the sound if the engine was ticking, indicating low oil, the feeling was mild self doubt. I can't recall any control over the dream.

I was walking along some train tracks. I was some sort of duck… Joining me in my travels were a chicken and a cat. We heard a train coming, but we didn’t know which way to look until it zoomed out of a nearby tunnel and nearly flattened us! We waited for it to go back through the tunnel in the other direction – the tracks were set in a loop behind us – before walking through it. On the other side of the tunnel was the Dragon Ridge. The mountains were jagged and unforgiving, and some of them looked as though recent rock slides had buried sections of vegetation. The other animals turned into Nicole (the cat that was not a cat) and Zeddicus Zu’l Zorander (the chicken that was not a chicken). Nicole pointed out a heart-shaped rock high above us. It lay on the summit of a smaller mountain. We had to be close to Naven, she said. We climbed over a hill of loose rocks; they were so finely grained that Zedd got his feet stuck in them like quicksand. On the other side of the hill, we found a lone cottage. When we entered the building, I knew immediately that evil had made this place its home. The interior was an exact replica of my grandparents’ house. I sat down in the dining room with a sign that read “Yeah!” in bold, red letters. Before long, Voldemort entered the house. I was fortunate this time… He went straight to the back door and exited onto the patio. He came back in through the front door almost immediately after, went to the back door again, and… This time, he turned around. Our eyes met. He glided across the dining room with his black cloak billowing as though a violent storm was stirring up inside the building. His hand clasped the wand sitting on the table. Immediately, he fired a volley of spells at me. I repeated his words, tossing the same spells back.

“Expelliarmus!” My wand popped out of my hand. Crap. “Crucio!” I fell to the ground, effectively paralyzed. I didn’t feel any pain, though. Voldemort put a foot on my leg and stood over me with his wand pointed at my heart. He smiled. Slowly, he pronounced the name of the killing curse. “Avada… kedavra…” A green bolt of energy shot out of his wand and bounced off my body. Voldemort’s face contorted. “What?! Why can’t I ever kill you?!”

“Because love is forever, stupid,” I said. I shot him with the same spell several times in succession before he finally died. I was glad I was able to protect Zedd and Nicole from harm.

Dream - Lucid - AP

I was at work (big shocker). I was working with my coworker Tim. It was a Sunday, because we closed at 8. Something happened, I can't really remember what, but we got into a fight. We were arguing and yelling at one another as we stormed around behind the counter and into the back.

Then, it was only about 30 minutes until closing time, and Tim decided we should leave the store for 30 minutes and go out on some sort of adventure. We left the store, hoping that no customers would come in between then and 8 o' clock.

We were then walking down a road by a small forest. It was daytime outside. We walked under a tree, and as we were walking, Tim said we may get crapped on by some birds, and then, we did indeed get crapped on by a ton of birds; we were absolutely covered in bird shit. It felt absolutely disgusting; it felt very wet, slimy, and slightly heavy. We kind of laughed it off after being grossed out for a bit.

Then, we needed to wash the bird crap off ourselves. There was this shower-type thing in the forest. Tim and I got under it. Tim was washing himself off, and then he washed off my back. Then, I was naked (Tim was not). I turned around and Tim washed the rest of me off, paying no mind to my nude body. I didn't seem to think it was a big deal either. There were no sexual thoughts or feelings on either of our parts.

Then, we went back to the store. I think there may have been a couple of customers there that we had missed while being away.

~

I was at some relative's house. It was a strange version of my uncle's house, but he wasn't there. In fact, the only relative I remember seeing looked just like me, though in the dream, I didn't recognize that. The relatives, cousins I think, were mocking me and laughing at me for every reason they could find. I was trying to prove them wrong about a tattoo that Ryan had on his back (it looked just like my tattoo, only it had some poetry written in beautiful script below it...it was in a different language and said something about "Beautiful Violets"). Only in the dream, I was saying that Ryan was Squidward (from Spongebob...weird!).

I remember seeing images of his tattoo as I argued with my cousins. I remember seeing the tattoo only half-finished, then fully finished on his back. There was also a morning glory-type flower sitting on a glass coffee table. It was purple, again, like my tattoo. There were other smaller flowers too. The cousins kept destroying the flower more and more, and I kept getting very upset. It finally looked like just a small nub of a flower, the petals being all gone.

I threatened to the cousins that I would go home because I was sick of their crap, and then, someone said "Just make sure you leave your car here tomorrow, I need it in the morning", or something along those lines.

Then, Ryan was there, and I leaned against his chest. He said something sexual to me, though it was abstract. It was something like "I'll add another quarter to my roll, if you know what I mean." Strange.

I was playing real life fallout 3. The only weapon I had was this butchers knife, but it was really powerful. I saw a soldier and swung at him and killed him. Then two more came by and I killed them. One was holding a death claw gauntlet. I killed another soldier who looked like brick from borderlands. He was tougher than any of the other ones I killed. After collecting special weapons and other drops from the soldiers I started to complete challenges like in fallout 3. I wanted to continue doing this, although it would ruin my reputation with the soldiers after I got out of that area.*

I switched positions with peter at sobeys. And I found the work to be very difficult because a bunch of things kept popping up on the computer and no one told me how or what to do with them. Shawna was there and I don't remember seeing anyone else working but me. I remember leaving the cage, and coming back to see my mom there talking. I was pissed cause she was there while I was working.

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was supposed to be in class, but was skipping. I saw some MTG cards in a store and wanted to buy them. Then the next day I did go to class and we had to build a robot. I didn't have time to finish it before class ended. When I got home I ate with my family but the robot had followed me demanding that I finish my work. I reluctantly acquiesced.

He had a human face and looked sort of like my youngest brother (8), although my brother was also there and I could notice some differences. Later I asked him if he couldn't just learn all the physics I knew and work on himself since he was a genius. He told me it would just take him about a week (ouch). I told him I was pretty smart but was very lazy and always skipping classes, although I still managed to get good grades. Then I cheered myself thinking that I had built a freaking robot.

The dream shifted and I was part of the roman army fighting their last battle in a park. The romans lost and I died fighting. Then the dream focused on my friend from real life M and I became him. The romans were taking away the people who were not warriors who had hidden themselves in a small building (myself included). I grabbed a sword and challenged an important enemy noble to a duel, but in the middle of the fight another man decided to take his place. I managed to cut him on the neck, but it was too shallow. He still pretended to be dying so that he could drown me in the park pond. He failed and he began laughing about how he always did that. Then we started fighting again.

Night of Feb 29

I was in a school play, and I was really really happy about it. For those who don't know, I used to want to be an actress, but that ship has sailed. I just recall being so ecstatic about getting to act again. I believe some Starkid was there, but I'm not sure. Nigel Barker came in the make-up room when I was trying to demonstate my make-up skills and I was way too nervous to do my best.

Later I was walking down the hallway of my school and something happened with Billy, like he hugged me or I don't know. I just remember him being somewhat infatuated with me, but it was kind of whatever. I had forgotten to get a ride home, so I called my brother and he was able to pick me up.

Oddly enough, it was my eighteenth birthday and I had completely forgotten. This made me extremely sad because I didn't have anything planned and i wanted a huge blowout party, because you only turn 18 once. Alyssa, Izzy, and I were going to go out to eat or something, but then that didn't happen because Izzy ditched us.

I was heartbroken. She was supposed to be my best friend. Then her brother called ME out on being mean to HER. Wtf? No. I think I explained my situation and I might have cried, but I remember he, like, held me or laughed and tried to comfort me. Weird.

Awake Non-Lucid

I'm walking down a street I take on my route to school. I stroll along, lost in my thoughts. Arron comes out of nowhere and says "Hey, I'll walk with you. Give me a minute while I get something, ok?" I nod, and follow him into his house. I look around. It's open and very white. Suddenly I feel quite awkward, being alone in his house with him, since I know how flirty he can get.

I relax when someone comes in. It's a friend of Arron's although I swear I've met him before. (Never met this guy IRL, just a random DC) "I know you!" I smile. He sees me and grins.

"Yeah! We spoke at the party a few nights ago! Fancy meeting you here."

I completely forget about school, and the guys grab some food and we head to Arron's room. I lounge on a stool, and the guy introduces himself as Josh. He's rather hot, and I keep catching his eye. The door opens, and more friends of Arron's come in. I realise suddenly that I've missed three periods of school.

I find myself in my school's main corridor. It's pretty much empty of people, so I sit down. Rochelle comes in and says we're going on a P.E trip. She doesn't seem concerned that I've missed my mornings lessons. We walk into the PE changing rooms. Everyone has giant suitcases full of clothes, and the room slopes downwards.

I realise I have nothing to wear, and my moany teacher is shouting at me to hurry up. Mumbling under my breath, I ask someone if I can borrow some jogging bottoms and a t-shirt. I rummage through their suitcase and pull on clothes that are far too big.

The room slopes again sharply and I find myself rolling downwards and hitting the wall. My teacher shouts at me to get a move on but I can't make it up the slope, the flooring has become smooth which makes it difficult to get a grip.

Eventually I make it up and hurry along with the rest of the girls. My dad turns up, and we watch a very scary rollercoaster pass just above our heads. There's a t.v under it, which we stop to watch. Apparently some people are giving their views on the rollercoaster. I notice one of the girls is Emma Watson. She has very blonde, volumous hair and far too much make-up on.

The beginning was the best bit, although it was a very mundane dream which pretty much sucked

This is a dream i found saved into my computer from this past summer.. It ties into the mall theme i was talking about in my feb 28th dream

Apparently it all started in France where i was chasing some cat around town and i found myself in the movie theaters watching this whole dream.. but then i left with a friend and we met up with her crush or whatever and went to some pizza shop and it was all french looking , but then my friend and i were walking down a dirt road and came into this shop.. which turned out to be a so called hospital where the patients never leave from.. so were running around in there trying not to get killed lol but got locked in an elevator and we couldnt get out... but then i like flashed into the mall with my mom at sears and it was raining and we were looking at clothes and then the power went out so im like hey! my phone has a flash light so we used that and managed to get talk to some sales associate about something idr and then we got out in the dark. so i started walking around the mall but my mom turned into my friend and we were just walking around but the mall was closing soon and the store we were in turned into Thornes market (a market place i live near) and im like hey this place changed.. i used to play here in this toy store when i was a kid but now its bigger and no toys..." so we ventured our way back into the holyoke mall and examined stores and then the mall was closing so we went back to sears but then we had to wait in line and my friend turned into another person and the line was for like pre marriage photos for some reason so were like oh hey lets practice faces but i got mad cuz every face i apparently looked like a cow boy and im like im tired of this.. i feel like were in the game the sims.. and then i got a nice face down so we got our pic taken and i couldn't make that face again so i did some stupid thing with my hands and the photographer was like hey, this isnt from the old days.. smile nicely and gave us our pic and im like well at least there's only a week more of this and then we walked though sears to get outside and when i got outside my friend turned into someone else again and we were walking through the parking lot and it was dark and raining and the parking lot was make of tiny rocks so it was hark to walk in and we needed to find my mom but then this kid apparently became a zombie and was chasing me through the parking lot but i was faster but he didn't give up and then i realized i forgot my stuffed animal rabbit behind a car so we had to go back and get it and then after being chased forever we got onto cement ground so i thought i could out run him maybe even faster but then he got me so i kicked him and run away and he stayed down but then there was this hole in the ground so im like check this out... and i clicked a button and it light up and turned into a hot tub with all this music and what not but as soon as i got in my mom pulled up and was like hey its time to go! so i started histaricly laughing and got in the car, and she asked how the movie was and im like yeah it was good but it skipped around to different things alot.. i got confused. but yeahh so i thought it was an interesting dream

Had quite a lot of dreams last night that i remembered.. it must of been from all the times i woke up.. and i did happen to listen to a 30 min song from a post i read about dream recall.. apparently the music helps you recall dreams a little better.. but yupp!

Dream Fraction:
Standing in a giant white farm house... looking out the window
Seemed to be on a horse farm, and i could see maybe a racing track for the horses with a white picket fence around it. It was gloomy outside, muddy, and seemed as it just finished raining. It felt like a scene from the movie The Ring.

Dream Fraction:
Left my house but realized i left my laptop open, i had skype on and this website up. I became scared that my dad was going to snoop through my laptop.

Dreams:
I was down by the river, on an island we have, and i was walking through the woods there with a few people, who seemed to be hippies. They were wearing long skirts of that type and tank tops, and they had dreads. They were in reds and yellows. We were following a path that led us to a old fire pit, but it was blocked off with string, rainbow string.
I'm not sure if this led into this next part, but i remember it coming next..
I ended up in my school cafeteria, it kinda looked the same but was still different.. i was with a few friends from school (a girl and 3 guys) and we were in line for a buffet style lunch but there seemed to be no one else, just blurs of images of people. We ended up just getting one big plate that was piled a foot high and sat at a table up against a wall. We then began stacking the spoons and forks on the plate to make a big pile.

I ended up going to my softball game, but i forgot my jersey and i only had a white basketball T-shirt (even though i never played before) but that wasn't good enough, so i couldn't play. I ended up sitting on the bench facing the trees and crying because i was mad. I ended up on the street taking photos on a digital camera with my dad next to the game, and somehow found myself on a yacht with our neighbors and showing them the pictures that i took.

I woke up late for school, and my dad pushed me out the door to get the bus but i was only wearing a pair of old shorts and a yellow V-Neck that i apparently wore the day before that. I got mad at him because of that and also because my legs were to hairy to do that.. ( i was complaining yesterday IWL about that in gym to a friend) I then got on the bus and my dad was laughing because all these new 7th graders were getting on the bus with me and they didn't know what to do, it reminded me of lost fish. After they got on the bus was packed and i called my mom to being me a change of clothes but she said no. We then drive down the street and drive by a girl who i apparently remembered from a few years earlier who was wearing yellow, red, green, and blue Gothic pants that were strapped around her ankles and i said hey its funny how she still has those pants.. Then we go down another street and pick up another girl, Rachel (someone that i met snowboarding this past winter) and she gets on the bus. We drive down the next street and stop, and then i find myself standing in the road with all the other kids. My mom was sitting there in her car and came out to stand with me. i was on the side of the road watching an extremely large Yorkshire terrier (about 20lbs) stand there. My friends sister then proceeded to drive by in a black Outtie and almost hits the dog, so i scream. She stops thinking she hit the dog and backs up. When she did this she hit the dog and for some reason does it 2 more times. On the third time the dog turned into a human man and when she ran it over it struggled and died. In the dream i screamed, terrified, and then i woke up and like rolled over quickly when i did, my heart was beating fast.. I have no idea why.

I was at the mall with my mom and she decided to go into a few stores but i decided to go walk around but when i went to go find her again i couldn't, and the mall was closing so i had to run around the mall turning all the lights on again because they were motion censored. This was the same mall that i had a dream about a few months back, that i got stuck in during a storm and the power went out so it was pitch black and it turned into a nightmare. But yeah i couldn't find my mom, and for some reason the bottom level still had people walking around, that were coming from a dark hallway.

These dream were two long dreams compared to yesterday's 3 dream fragments. It also played out more like a show or movie, not in the first person.
It started out as like a view of a whole bunch of teenagers on an island or a beach somewhere. I don't know where. Then it shows this one kid looking out into the ocean.
It switches view to the direction he's looking and there's a girl in the water (She looked strangely familiar ) And all of a sudden she starts flailing about, apparently drowning. One girl on the beach jumps into the water and starts swimming towards her. For some strange reason, in the next view, the one kid mentioned above is riding piggy-back on this girl as she's swimming They eventually get to the girl but it's too late. Then it transitioned to some youtube video that was very incoherent, apparently commemorating the girl who died...
The dream faded and I woke up. I drifted directly back into sleep into a different dream, but for some reason felt linked to the previous one...
There were these people doing an investigation. There was this woman, who had something jabbed and stuck into her arm. She pleaded to the investigators that it was the end of a pen ( My dreams really don't make too much sense...) ,but the investigators go into the drawer of her desk and find a syringe and a bag of what seemed to be heroine (Or at least my brain recognized it as that.) Then that transitioned to a car going down the Highway, carrying a few members from the show 'Shameless', and then the car got hit by another vehicle. The End

We are at our summer cottage, by the lake. With me there are my family and some of my friends. There is also a little dog. I stroke it and my friends warn me to watch out that it doesn't bite me. I protect myself with a book. The dog tries to go around me. We circle each other for a while. Soon the dog gives up. We talk something, but I can't remember what. I stroke the dog again, and again it tries to bite me. Soon it gives up. We go for a run. After some time we arrive at a block of flats that looks like my granny's neighbourhood. We go round the building. Soon we see a similar building. We go round it too. There is a glass door. It is open, but I notice that it is the wrong door. There is another door, but I notice that it is a wrong one too. The third door is the right one, but after going from it I am again outside. Now there is a soccer field in below us. Thats where we should go but when I look down I see a fall of at least 4 metres. When I wonder what to do I see one of my friends (that wasn't with us at the beginning of the dream) going down stairs. I go down. There are some children playing. They notice us and start yelling at us that they are playing. One of them urges the others to kick the balls at us. The come closer. I take a ball and foot it. Even though one of the kids is near me, I miss him. I suddenly feel weak and decide to leave. The kids don't follow us. We leave the field. We are now in a dark, cave-like place. There are now six of us. The dark place is a womb and near us, gloving soft milky light, is an egg cell. Our mission is to prepare it for fertilization by removing a chromosome from it, but we can't go too close to it or it will fertilize. I take a long stick and stick it into the cell, removing one x-chromosome. There's some guy that I haven't seen before. One of us dares him to eat the chromosome. He does it, but it doesn't seem to have much effect on him.

I am in an old city. The alley I take ends in a fall. Below me there is a marketplace. When I'm wondering how to get down, two girls go past me, jump on a roof and then on the street below. I notice an iron rod hanging in the air. I decide to use it. I jump and grab it. When I'm hanging there, a woman comes to say to the girls not to jump on the roof. I drop down and notice a friend of mine. The last thing I remember is becoming lucid, though there probably is more that I can't remember.

So last night I could finally recall my dream, but I dreamed that I was in a tall building that was being attacked much like 9/11. The dream would switch me from inside the building to 3rd person view outside like its some kind of movie. Somehow I ended up in the other building before the one next to it collapsed. I have felt so sick in that dream and a million things going through my mind that I am going to die. Before this happened it was night time and I was looking over the city and a air plane was coming and missed the buildings, then it turned around and streaked the building and I was teleported inside of it.

I was in a room with three other guys giving up hope that we would ever leave there, I found it odd that there was a chair that was in the shape of a tipping building. We figured out we where low enough to escape the bottom and people helped us out. One lady told us to run into this building to be safe and we did. The nightmare ended then.

There where other stuff but I don't remember it.

I had this one early this morning, and though it wasn't exactly "scary," it was definitely traumatic.

Dream Notes/Observations

Some friends and I have been invited to a party, in Alaska. We're being rushed to catch the plane (and drink with the pilot on the way), but we have to run some errands first. As we're driving around to do this, I'm trying to convince my buddy not to let me drink too much because my ex will be at the party.

At some point during this I insulted a group of crazy gangbangers, who looked like Rastafarian MS-13. The swore they were going to make me pay, but we sped away in the car.

We get back to my house and my friends drop me off so I can get dressed for the party. I go downstairs and let my ferrets out to play while I get ready (I do have ferrets IRL, and though these looked a little different I knew it was them). While my ferrets are playing two new ferrets appear from nowhere and start playing with them.

After I'm dressed I hear someone break-in upstairs, and somehow I know that it's the gangbangers, and that what their going to do is beat me, make me watch them eat the ferrets, and then kill me. So I try to gather up the ferrets and hide them in the closet, but the ones I don't know run away and I can't catch them.

I just manage to get my ferrets hidden when I hear them coming down the stairs and scramble to grab my sword (an ugly, poorly made black steel blade, not nearly as nice as my sword IRL). I've just managed to grab it and run out into the hallway when they get to the bottom of the stairs. There are 6 of them, and they are wielding hockey sticks and metal bars. I manage to bottleneck them in the hall so they can only attack me one at a time. They hit me a few times, but nothing serious, though there are a few close calls, and after 5 minutes of furious combat all 6 are dead.

I start freaking out about having killed 6 guys, and go up stairs and start pacing. At this point my friends return to pick me up, but I won't leave the house. I try to play it cool, but inside I'm losing it, considering chopping the bodies up to hide them in the yard. After a minute I break down and tell my friends what happened, but instead of freaking out they just think it's cool that I managed to kill 6 dudes by myself.

After a few minutes I decide to call 911 and report it, since it was self defense. The police don't come, but send an investigator: an older woman who kind of reminds me of my 5th Grade teacher. So I take her downstairs to show her the scene, but when we get down there all the bodies have turned into giant badger/dog things. 2 of them are dead, but the other 4 are just severely crippled. One of them has found the two stranger ferrets, killed 1, and is trying to kill the other. I start kicking it to try to protect the ferret, and the investigator gets mad at me, saying something like "This may have started as self defense, but if you keep that up you'll be charged with assault, the law doesn't protect your pets" (though apparently it did protect giant badger-dogs that used to be people). This makes me really angry, and I wake up.
