Dreams of a Hooded Figure (and his trusty sidekick 8)

I tend to have very cinematic dreams, so I do my best to write them as a story...........
I commonly have short, random dreams, and every once in a while I'll have epic stories with battles, romance, good vs evil, all the nesecities of a good fantasy. 8 is a girl who commonly appears in my dreams, first appearing in Dream Academy (which is an old dream which was recently posted) She has brown hair and is apparently really good looking, but I can never remember her face, it gets blurred a lot...
