lucid

1. I remember being in some town in an apocalyptic era where heavily armed AI war machines were taking over. It was daytime and I found myself trying to hide from these machines that were seeking to kill everyone in sight. I was smack in the middle of this town and there were buildings of all sorts everywhere. All plant life was overgrown, but despite all of the mess the sun was still out. I could feel the adrenaline rush through my body as I tried to remain incognito. At one point I came to a warehouse. As I looked at my surroundings I took note of all the war machines in my proximity and remained careful and silent. Suddenly one of the big boy war machines blows a whole into the south wall of the warehouse. Seconds later he spots me and my body fills with even more adrenaline than before as I feel as though I'm about to get killed. I start sprinting to avoid the machine but it is catching up fast. This machine is easily 10 times the size of a normal human and is basically a walking tank in terms of armor and power.
I keep running and running. I find a long road and for some reason I feel that it would be a good idea to follow it. As I continue running down this road, day gradually turns to night extremely quickly in terms of what us humans are used to. All in all, it took the sun about 3 minutes to set and it became night fully. The moon was out and the machines had vanished. I slowed my pace to a walk and found myself approaching a dead end. At this dead end was a group of about 11 people, mostly guys. I walk up to them and immediately they invite me to play a real game of Rainbow Six: Siege. I am not sure how this is supposed to work but I agree to play. Since there are now 12 of us, one of the guys mentions "after the testing round, whoever the worst 2 players are will be kicked out afterwards and then we will start." He then asks me what my level is, and I tell him. Suddenly I get distracted. I turn around and notice that I am on my friend Dylan's street, and my old house is right around the corner. I look at what I am wearing and see that I have on very tight blue jeans that are so tight that the buckle is unbuttoned, white shoes, and a white bro tank. "interesting" I thought to myself.
I began walking down Dylan's street, simply strolling along. Not far ahead of me there are 3 girls just messing around doing whatever. About a third of the way down the street my attention is caught by a flying bus about 20 feet in the air that is flying down the street in the opposite direction of me. I look closer at it and realize that it is the magic school bus from the show itself. Behind the bus is some sort of magical trail that is being left. "Holy shit this feels way to real to be a dream" I say aloud to myself. I approach the 3 girls I mentioned earlier. "Hey can I ask you guys a question?" I say. "Sure" one of them replies. I then ask, "Is this a dream?" to them. Their response was short and simple, "Look at your tattoo." I then look down at my tattoo, and as usual, instead of it saying "Are you dreaming?" it now says "okay." I take this as a fool-proof answer that I am indeed dreaming as tattoo's typically do not change in waking life. Out of pure joy, I go and hug one of the girls. We hug and suddenly I am now in the mood to make out, so I go for a kiss but alas, the girl does not reciprocate so I call it off. I then remember "Wtf am I doing I have a girl".
Just as quickly as the sun went down earlier, the sun rises once more; this time even quicker than the last. I now intend to find my girl as she is ever so ellusive in dreams, and lucid ones at that. I remember that usually when Im near my old house in my lucid dreams, she lives right next door where my neighbor normally is. I continue walking down the street, and I notice that many houses have christmas lights up. I also realize that the temperature out is a little cool, and quite comfortable to say the least. One house sticks out to me out of all the houses, and it's the house at the corner of the street just before the road turns to my old street. I approach this house while reminding myself to maintain awareness. As I make it to the front door I pause for a moment and take a deep breath in an attempt to solidify my intention and manifestion of her. I open the door effortlessly as I knew that it wouldn't be locked. As I walk in and close the door behind me I notice that all of the lights are off and the only light in the house is that which is coming from outside through the windows. I hear a group of people walking upstairs so I start heading up them.
Once I get upstairs I see a group of girls and one older guy with gray hair. "Hey is A here?" I ask them. "Yeah she should be" one of the girls says. Everyone then starts looking for her in all of the rooms and I realize this house is way bigger on the inside that its size from the outside doesn't make any sense. Suddenly Dylan shows up out of nowhere, "Cory what are you doing?" he asks in a surprised tone of voice. "I'm chilling bro" I reply. I notice that he's wearing one of my old shirts and this puzzles me but I chuckle nonetheless. The girls end up not being able to find her. I decide to go check and see if she's downstairs but as I do so I accidentally collide with one of the girls coming up the steps and she falls down the stairs. In mid-flight down the steps she randomly turns into a small inanimate doll the size of an action figure. I am put aghast by the sheer oddity of the situation. I then remind myself once more to maintain awareness so that I don't get lost in the dream. I turn around and everyone is still as calm as ever, not even batting an eye to what had just happened.
With the intention of changing the weather and bringing a storm into the area I ask the older man "Isn't there supposed to be a storm coming in?" He replies, "Yeah in about 8 hours or so." Wow that is too far away for me as I wanted one to happen now. I use my intention and expectation to start willing one into the dream. Suddenly, as the old man is looking out through the window he says that it looks as though it might rain early. I go to look out the window and what I see confuses me. The thunder clouds that are in the sky make up a straight line that is probably about a few miles wide, and these clouds get darker and darker the closer to the middle of the line they are. All of the lightning that is occurring is in the middle of this line of clouds. This line quickly passes over us resulting a downpour that lasts about 30 seconds or so. I once more attempt to will a storm into existance, and shortly after I see yet another line of thunder clouds, just like the last, start rolling in. "This is not what I had intended, but okay" I say to myself. I then turned and asked the old man "What do you represent in my dream?". "What?" he says. I then repeat myself, "What do you represent in this dream?". He starts to answer, but his answer is extremely indirect and is dragging along so much that I get bored and turn my attention elsewhere.
I go down the stairs and walk outside. I see a metallic gray sedan sitting in the driveway and I proceed to get in it. Dylan and the old man follow. Dylan gets in the back seat while the old man gets in shotgun. I once more attempt to manifest a storm, and it starts to manifest fully this time. I then get out of the car and think of how nice it'd be to fly into the storm. Just before I take off I turn and look at my shirt which Dylan is wearing. Then, right as I take off, about 2 feet in the air, I lose focus and awaken.

1. I am walking on a bridge that is a part of some huge castle. My friend Dylan is walking along with me. We come to the end of the bridge and see two baby dragons, gold and black in color(75% black 25% gold ratio). We go up to them with zero hesitation or worries that we could be killed. We begin to pet them, and they seem to thoroughly enjoy the affection. Though I somehow "knew" these dragons were babies, their size was equivalent to a full grown medium sized dog.
Without warning, Dylan suddenly hops onto the baby dragon that he was petting. The dragon goes crazy for a moment but then calms down. Somehow Dylan controls the dragon and gets it to start flying while he is on the back of it. I watch in amazement wondering how he did it. "Just get on the dragon dude, but you have to believe!" he yells from above. Immediately I got onto the dragon, attempting to treat it with respect, and I try to take off. The dragon goes for a running lift off, but it does not work. "Remember dude, just belieeevvveee" I hear Dylan say once more from way off in the distance.
The dragon and I give it another go, and this time I am fully believing in a solid successful take-off. Sure enough, off we go into the air. Seconds later after becoming airborne the dragon disappears into thin air. I am now flying by myself. "This is a dream, I am dreaming" I say out loud to myself. Now lucid, I take in the moment and concentrate my awareness. I look around for Dylan but he is long gone. I am now flying around the castle and it's courtyard. I realize just how massive the entire castle is. As I continue flying around in a quite graceful manner, I look down and see a huge crowd of people completely taking up an entire bridge.
They seem to be having a party considering everyone is socializing, music is playing, and huge breen and white beachballs the size of a small car are being thrown about. Unintentionally, I crash land. Luckily nobody got hurt. I start making conversation with the people around me and even hit one of the beachballs once. As you can tell, I've now gotten distracted.

Note: The dream continued on but I don't remember the rest due to an abrupt awakening by an urgent need to pee.

I had just entered into a very large and ambient room, fully lucid. About 75% of the floor in this room was a pool area, and at a first glance it seemed fairly deep as the water was darker the deeper I looked. I looked around the entire room, this time noting my surroundings completely. To my right, near the other corner of the room, was a woman that appeared to be in her early 20's. She had long black curly hair and a nice outfit on as well. Looking to explore to the fullest extent, I jump into the water without hesitation. As I do so, a thin pool noodle manifests around my body and I find myself landing in the water and floating without effort. I look back at the woman and notice that she is now watching me. "You need to stay in that until you're ready to advance to the next stage" she tells me as her voice echoes across the room.
"Well shit, whats the next stage" I thought to myself. I look back at the water and really observe it. After a few seconds of doing this I force myself under, along with the noodle, and look around with my eyes wide open. I can feel the water encompassing my body, but it doesn't hurt my eyes or irritate them in the least; it's effortless. While I'm under, I see what I can only describe to be a pool, under the pool I'm currently floating in. It looks very trippy in the sense that it doesn't make sense, but I highly admire it's design. It reminds me of how underwater caves look when an area of freshwater is above an area of saltwater. Seconds later, I resurface. I swim over to the other side of the room and climb out of the pool. Before me there is a set of small stairs that lead to an open doorway that I can see leads to another large room.
I walk up the steps and into the next room. The room is empty for the most part, and there is no pool. I see a dude on the opposite side, pacing back and forth with his head down as though he is extremely mad. On the wall behind him there are two doorways. My curiosity leads me to go into both rooms. I walk into the room on the left first, and upon doing so, see that it is a very large and empty spaced restroom. The floor is covered in white tile that looks to be a tad bit dirty, and the walls are white. In the farthest corner of the room sits the toilet. In the complete opposite corner is the sink accompanied by a mirror. I walk over to the toilet and see my phone wrapped in brown toilet paper, on top of it. I pick it up and immediately notice that the brown toilet paper is wet. "Wow, that's a little nasty" I say aloud. I unwrap the toilet paper off of it and proceed to wipe off my phone screen which is wet and smells weird.
After doing this I begin to make my way out of the restroom. Just before leaving I remember how my tattoo is always messed up or completely absent in my dreams. I look at my forearm and see that it is indeed messed up and roughly half of it is gone. The font of my tattoo is also extremely sloppy, as though a kid drew it on. It no longer read "Are you dreaming?" but now rather "Ar eaming?" with most of the remaining letters extremely faded. I look next, at my hand, which has several drawings on it, all of which are drawn in a thick dark green ink of some sort. I distinctively remember one of these drawings being a butt with a visible pink butt-crack. "Wow, what the hell is this doing on my hand" I said to myself.
Outside of the restroom I can still hear the mad dude, walking around, now saying stuff to himself. I am not amused. The idea suddenly comes to me that I can create portals. I proceed to walk around the restroom with my hand open, touching the walls with the intention of creating a portal like the ones from the games "Portal" and "Portal 2". I attempt many times, but alas, my doubt brings about my failure. I walk out of the restroom now, and walk right past the mad dude. I get the intuition that he has ADHD or something, but I'm not sure why. The other door is now only steps away, and as I walk into it I find myself going through a short but really dark hallway. As the hallway ends, it opens up into a staircase. As I go up the staircase I see that on the left of it, there is the interior of a giant public plane built into the wall/building. There are many rows of closely placed seats and it perfectly resembles the inside of a public passenger jumbo jet.
When I get to the top of the stairs, I am confronted by an obstacle. This obstacle seems to be a collapsed pillar. I stop for a moment and think, "Holy crap, this all feels as real, if not more real than waking life". I then remember, I don't have my time dilation watch on me and that I need to meet and talk to the "Dream Council". I reinforce a strong awareness and climb over the fallen pillar. It takes me a few tries, but within a matter of seconds I get it. As I climb up and over, and land back on the ground, I find myself now on the second floor of this building. I seem to be inside of some sort of indoor playground-gym, and it's packed with people. This room is slightly bigger than the previous one and it has two floors. The indoor playground area is on the first floor, and the gym is on the second floor. I look around and appreciate the nice diverse color scheme of everything.
It then occurs to me, "I should ask the dream a question" and so I do. "Dream, tell me something that I need to know" I yell out whilst thinking out of curiosity what everyone around will do. I didn't expect an answer as I felt a doubt inside of me, but contrary to my expectation, I got an answer. A lean muscular man emerged from the elliptical section of the gym and approached me. "What do you want to know?" He asked me in a heavy french accent. I think to myself, "What do I want to know?" The few seconds of silence and deep thought were interrupted as he said, "How to achieve the vibration stage?". While I did want to learn that, and was extremely surprised by him even mentioning that, I replied "No, I want to get my time dilation watch". Without hesitation the man said "Easy" as he handed me a harness, "Climb this wall first, and it's yours". I turn around and see a rock wall about 6 feet in height, and I know what I have to do. I give him the harness so that he can properly place it on me, and get ready to scale this wall.
Just then, my alarm goes off and wakes me up into complete disorientation.

Note: entire LD, as usual, felt as real, if not more real than waking life.

1. I am inside of a car, in the backseat. There is a girl sitting to the right of me, as well as a girl in the passenger seat up front, and another girl driving. We are on the freeway going pretty fast and I am just chilling enjoying the ride. Up ahead there is an exit that leads to a town that is very will lit. As we continue driving, we see not far in the distance, a shootout taking place. It seems to be a huge gang versus a whole squad of police cars. This is all taking place in the middle of the road a little bit ahead of us, but surprisingly enough there isn't much traffic considering there's barely any cars on the road. Nevertheless, the cars that are ahead of us are at a complete stop for the most part, and a few cars are driving around the scene to avoid it.
"This has to be a dream" I think to myself without a doubt. I am now lucid, but still in the car. The girls in the car now start freaking out heavily and are in panic mode. "Just veer off to the right and drive through the grass" I tell the girl who is driving. She doesn't listen. I repeat myself, this time in a more urgent tone, "Just drive into the grass and go towards the town" I say with a loud voice. She then finally gets it and listens, but she doesn't go to the town, instead she drives past the town and we are now on some road that is completely dead with no other cars in sight. I decide that its about time for me to get out of the car, so I tell the girl driving, "Just pull over I'm getting out."
Once again, she doesn't listen and just completely ignores me. We are now headed towards a dark alley that has a long bridge going over it. I can clearly see that this alley is pretty dark, and it strikes me as very sketchy. Seconds later, in the middle of the alley that we are about to enter, I see an extremely huge dude wearing some sort of creepy ski mask, and a matching creepy all black outfit. Normally I wouldn't be too intimidated by this as I am lucid, but this guy looks about 9 feet tall and looks like he weighs about 500 pounds of pure muscle. At this point I have decided that I am no longer going to wait for the girl to stop the car, I am just going to get out. The other two girls that were in the car with us are now gone and it's just me and her.
As I open the back right door to get out, the girl suddenly stops on a dime. I get out of the car and look down the alley which starts just about 20 feet in front of where I am standing. The huge 9 foot tall guy is now sprinting full speed towards me. I glance at the car and the girl is now gone. It's just me. "Fuck this shit I'm not staying to find out what happens" I say out loud. With that, I look to my right and see a huge building that, as usual, is an architectural masterpiece. I jump about 10 feet into the air in order to climb onto the ledge of the building, and am successful. Just then as I am about to continue climbing, I see two men wearing red bomber jackets flying towards me. I then hear an extremely deep inhuman voice say "Block his awareness".
The instant this is said, I lose lucidity and am now just trying to escape the area. One of the men wearing the red bomber jackets has now landed 5 feet away from me and is walking towards me as though he were on some sort of mission.

1. I was riding on a train. This train seemed rather futuristic and its entire interior proved this well. My sister sat next to me and we, or rather should I say I, had no idea where we were going. I looked out the train window to my right and saw a highly futuristic city with endless architectural masterpieces and buildings. Outside the sun was beginning to set. I remained sitting down, but I was in complete awe of the city. Suddenly the dreaminess and oddness of this entire situation stuck out to me, "This is a dream" I told myself. I looked through the window once more, but this time really taking everything in. As I looked to the far left through the window I could see a huge vortex in the sky. It was made of colors of red, orange, yellow, but mostly black. "Wow, looks like a black hole" I remember thinking to myself. I was surprised even more when this vortex began moving across the sky at a rather medium-like pace.
I turned and faced my sister. "Dude, count to 4" I told her. "Okay" she said without questioning. In my head I expected her to go past the number 4, and within seconds I was proven right. The whole reason I did this was to test the expectation effect once more as it had been a while since I've directly influenced the dream. After this my sister promptly said "I'm lucid". Suddenly the train stopped, but it was only for a minute or two until it resumed on its path. I remember seeing my manager Bryan on the train. He had told me not to leave my "juice" on the train ledge, and "especially not in plain sight of the train employees". A while later the train stopped and I got off. As I did so I thought to myself, "Wow that was an extremely long ride". Looking back at it now, I am confident that the ride lasted well over 10 minutes. My sister never got off the train, only myself and a few other people did.
Not far ahead of me I saw a huge gas station. The outside was made of black and green glossy bricks, and it too had a futuristic look to it. As I walked inside I was immediately alarmed by the sight of a robbery taking sight. 4 guys had their guns drawn at a receptionist in the bank area of this gas station. "Huh, a full bank inside of a gas station" I thought to myself. I decided to take part in this event, so I let the adrenaline come through me as I sprinted for cover near the back of this gas station. I ended up all the way in the back in the stock room, and as it turns out, everyone else went there too. Among these people was my good friend Josh. We we both crouched down taking cover behind something, and he was only about 3 or 4 feet away from me.
"Bro, BitCoin has been surging lately" he tells me. "Really?" I reply. "Yeah man, some reports say that it's expected to reach 2,000 for a single bitcoin by sometime next year" he says. "Damn bro, if I would've known. I'm going to have to buy some to get in with the profit making" I told him. As you can probably guess, at this point I indulge a little too much into the dream and I almost lose my lucidity. I notice that we have all been waiting in this backroom for quite some time, so I get up and jump over the obstacle I was crouched behind and begin to walk out.
As I come back to the front of the store I see that the 4 robbers are now just walking around and looking at stuff. About a minute after this I lose lucidity due to the fact that I wasn't sure what I wanted to do.

1. I was walking home from the area where my bank is at. Multiple people whom I didn't know were walking in the same direction as me. It was nighttime and rather quiet. Suddenly I thought to myself, "Why am I walking so slow and why am I even walking home in the first place? Is this a dream?" I ask. Now I become lucid, but I look at my tattoo just to make sure. Immediately I notice that my tattoo is insanely smaller than usual, the font is different, and it is now near my tri-cep/elbow area of my arm. It took me only seconds to notice all of this and I was on my way. "What should I do?" I thought to myself. I start running and just looking at my surroundings. I see that there is a mexican grill in front of me, and there are lights surrounding this building. "Oh, I gotta get that time dilation watch" I said to myself. Just then I manifest a trail of light that will lead me to the watch, and indeed, a glowing yellow neon trail appears at my feet.
I start following it with a quick pace, and soon I find myself running once more. Suddenly my pace started to pick up without my intention of doing so and I was now running incredibly fast and also sliding at times to get to my destination. At one point, I could see ahead of me that the trail actually went into the ground. As I looked exactly where it went into the ground, I saw that the area of the ground that it went into was transparent. Because of this transparency, I could see below into another "level" of the dream? Or Earth maybe? It was rather confusing. In this other "level" of ground I saw a smooth clean tennis court that resembled something out of a video game. While still maintaining an incredibly fast running pace, I jumped and dove head first into the transparent part of the ground with the intention of going through. While doing so I manifested music and musical effects into the dream. As I went through the ground I heard futuristic electronic noises. Seconds later I "awoke" in my bed.
I immediately grabbed my Dream Journal from the side of my bed(I haven't used an actual notebook to journal in over a year) and I start writing stuff down. About a minute later I lay back down and within seconds find myself in another dream. I'm now in Walmart. In front of me there is a large kiosk with interesting looking products on it. Suddenly I become aware of how the current situation is odd and I once more ask myself, "Is this a dream?". I then become lucid and decide to look at the products at this kiosk. As I walk right up to the kiosk I pass a coworker I know and she says "hey" to me with which I reply to with a "hey" back and continue on my way.
I kneel down and see that these products are something I've never seen before. I have no idea how to describe them. I can say however, that each product had a word on it. One product had "Wealth" written on it, another had "Health" written on it, another had "Happiness" written on it. None of these products really interested me, except for the health one. I look a little to my right and see another product labeled "Sleep and dreaming". I pick up the health product and then grab the sleep and dreaming one out of curiosity to see what I can do with them.
Suddenly I am transported to some sort of busy market street where I am getting shot at from almost every direction except for directly behind me. I see tons of bullets fly past me and I have no idea what is going on. I attempt to "pause" the situation, and as I do so, a pause menu pops up and takes up my view. Though this menu is now fully taking up my view, I am still being shot at and nothing has been paused at all. Through the transparent pause menu I can see this clearly and I can also see that I am losing health extremely fast from looking at my health bar on my HUD.
Within seconds I lose all of my health and die. Everything just suddenly fades to black and this time I actually awake in my waking life bed. "Holy shit" I think to myself as I make a note to remember everything I had just dreamt as I turn over and fall back asleep.
Suddenly I am back in Walmart and have just walked out of the backroom. "Why am I here? I'm off today? Is this a dream?" I said out loud. Instantly I knew that it was and started on my mission: to find A. I see my manager Treyvon a few feet ahead of me. "Hey trey, have you seen A?" I ask him while unintentionally yelling. "Yeah she's right over there" he says as he points over to the cosmetics area of the store. I take off and start running over to the cosmetics area. Suddenly I see a girl with black hair. "That looks like it could be her" I think to myself. I go up to this girl, but as she turns to look at me I realize that it is not her. "Have you seen A?" I ask this random girl who is about my age and rather short.
"Yeah she just went down this aisle" she told me as we walked onto the aisle she pointed at. Just then I see her. She's wearing a tan long sleeve shirt and black leggings. Her black purse is on her shoulder, and overall she is looking fine and fancy. Seconds later A looks right at me and instantly we start walking towards each other. Now we are standing not even a foot apart, and I'm just looking into her dreamy blue eyes. "Wow" I say out loud. I notice that she seems mad/annoyed by the look on her face. Suddenly I get a really really strong notion that she's mad at me for not coming to her earlier. A then turns to walk away, but she only takes one step before I grab her by the arm(softly). "Woah wait, you're not going anywhere yet" I tell her. I then pull her in for a kiss and she doesn't fight it. As my lips are literally inches away from hers, the dream starts destabilizing and everything quickly goes black and I wake up.

Note: in this entire dream chain, each dream was crystal clear and as usual, felt hyper-realistic.

1. I had just closed my eyes to do WBTB, and seconds after doing so, a dream formed. I focused on the dream and seconds later I was fully immersed within it and was fully lucid. I was standing on the roof of a super tall building that was made of all concrete. More specifically, I was standing on the edge on the corner of this roof. Beyond me as far as I could see was an ocean. The sun was setting and the sky was filled with smooth clouds that were a mixture of blue purple and pink in color. The entire sky was like this. Because the clouds were this color, the majority of the ocean in front of me was the same color as well. "Wow" I remember saying out loud. The scene was amazing.
I looked behind me and saw tons of futuristic buildings, and some of them looked slightly similar to the one I was standing on. This city or whatever it was, looked like it was asleep. There was no movement down below and I saw no people. As a slightly strong wind blew over me, I thought of what I should do. "It's been a while since I've flown" I thought to myself. With that, I jumped off the roof with the intention to fly, but I had no idea how well I was going to do. Immediately I started plummeting towards the ground far below me, but within seconds I gained control and started flying. However, control might not be the right word because I ended up not being able to control where I was going. I instantly started ascending higher and higher into the sky at an extremely rapid pace, and the feeling of adrenaline that came with this was a little overwhelming.
Within the next 30 or so seconds I found myself leaving the Earth's atmosphere. A wave of fear rushed through me, but quickly dissipated as I reminded myself "This is a dream." Soon I was floating out in space, just looking at the Earth from this point of view. Surrounding the Earth's atmosphere I could see many large space stations and space ships. At this point I realized how far out in space I was, and I also became aware of how cold it was. The coldness was not unbearable at all though, and it actually felt quite good. Suddenly my vision starts fading and I hear some futuristic female voice with a british accent saying "dream destabilizing" accompanied by a constant beeping noise. In the moment, I wasn't sure how to respond to this because I rarely have dreams in space, and my only way of stabilizing was by keeping my awareness up which was hard to do given the unexpectedness of the situation. Seconds later I awoke.

2. I was riding an electric scooter up and down my friend Pat's street, and a lot of people and friends were outside along with me. It seemed like it was the afternoon considering the sun was setting and it just merely felt like it. I don't think any of my really close friends were outside with me(the squad and bros), but they were still friends nonetheless. I remember that all of these friends that were outside with me were mad at me, but I wasn't sure why. I got the notion that they thought I was evil or something because of their actions towards me. My friend Grant was in a four-seater go-cart along with 3 other friends and as I was riding this electric scooter south down Pat's street, Grant was charging at me at full speed with his go-cart.
This was the exact point where I realized that they all truly thought I was evil. Since I was riding my scooter close to the curb, I had no way of escaping Grant's full force go-cart. I had only seconds left to decide what I was going to do in order to evade and potentially harmful situation. Right as Grant's go-cart was within 3 feet of me I yelled, "Roll up" and suddenly my scooter jumped about 5 or 6 feet into the air and over Grant. I landed safely and rode the scooter for a few more seconds until I stopped and got off. As I turned back around I saw Grant and some other friends walking towards me laughing. "Dude how the fuck did you do that?" Grant asked. "I'm not evil guys" I replied.
With that they all walked back and went inside Pat's house. I could hear music coming from inside so I assumed that he was throwing a party again. As they walked inside I looked and saw that all of the lights were off, but there were some flickering club-type dance lights blinking on and off. At the moment I am still a few houses to the left of Pat's house. Suddenly I notice A walking on the sidewalk. I start walking to Pat's house, with the intention that I'm most likely not going to talk to her. However, that immediately changes as I walk up to her and we are now walking side by side. The neighborhood was now quiet and a soft breeze blew against us. A was wearing a cyan fleece hoodie and blue skinny jeans.
"I haven't seen you in a while" I said nonchalantly. "I know, I have to tell you something really important" A says with a serious but calm voice. "How? You seem like you're drunk right now haha" I told her. "No trust me I'm fine" she replies. A then proceeded to tell me a few major things that have been on her mind about the idea of "Us". I don't remember 2 of the things she told me, but the one that stuck with me was when she said "I've known you and missed you since I was a little kid. And I don't even know how that makes any sense because we didn't even meet each other for the first time until 7th grade. This entire time I've been missing you and just waiting for you to come back. I've missed you for years Cory" she told me as her eyes filled up with tears.
Right as she said this I went into deep thought about everything and the past of her and I. It really struck my heart to say the least. After some seconds had passed she said "I have to go inside now. I'll talk to you again later." I remember that she was sniffling as she walked into Pat's house. I remained standing in Pat's driveway where we had stopped walking and contemplated over the conversation I just had with A. In no time at all a tear streamed down my face and the words "Someone by your side" echoed in my mind.

1. I was at a school, but a rather large school at that. There were around 5 or 6 floors, and there was a campus-wide party going on. I don't remember if there was music, but there were tons of decorations, people socializing, and food and drinks. At the moment, I was standing outside of the school, but people were still partying outside as well. I noticed that on some of the pillars of the school building, there were poles sticking directly outwards that were level with the ground. On most of these poles were flags and no flag was the same. I walked up to one of these pillars, jumped, and grabbed onto the first pole that was closest to the ground. With both hands I began climbing upwards, grabbing each consecutive pole as I did so. In no time at all I made it all the way up to the 3rd/4th floor, and as I did so I saw a sign that said "Are you dreaming?" Immediately I became aware and looked around me. As I inspected my surroundings and were I was at I became lucid. Seconds later I lost lucidity as a naked blonde woman approached me as I was still hanging on one of the poles.
I got off of the pole and was now standing next to the naked blonde female. She started dancing in a heavily seductive way, and my animal side activated. In my head I remember thinking, "Wow, I want to smash this chick, but I'm not going to because that would be really disrespectful in front of this guy standing next to me." About 1 or 2 feet in front of the blonde female and I, was an asian man who was covered with tattoos and was shirtless. By the look on his face I could tell he was enjoying the show. For some reason I got the notion that this female was one of his workers or something, as if he was a pimp of some sort. In all honesty, I felt rather intimidated by him, and that was enough to stop me from making a move on this blonde woman that was dancing in front of us.

2. I was sitting in a classroom. While sitting sideways in a desk, I talked to a dude that I knew from one of the parties that my friend threw. His name was Jesse, and I remembered him because he had short dreads and wore a distinctive jacket. I don't remember what were talking about, but I noticed that he didn't have regular feet. Jesse's feet were the feet of a deer; they were deer hooves. On top of that there were white and seemed to be made out of metal. After a few minutes of talking, Jesse got up and said that he had to get some classwork from the table in the back of the classroom. Just then I remembered that I had left my water bottle at the back table, so I got up and we both went to the back table.
As we walked to the back table, I noticed that this classroom had a normal amount of desks, maybe even actually a few less than the normal amount that would be in a classroom. Everything was clean, as usual in my dreams, and I saw that the carpet was a mix of blue, gray, yellow, and black. Once we got to the back table, I saw that there were many sets of paper that I assumed to be classwork that we were supposed to do. The table that this classwork was sitting on was made of a medium-brown colored wood, and it sat on 4 metal stilts. Jesse quickly got his classwork and was already back to his seat when I had only just picked up my water bottle. I remember that the label on the water bottle was mostly blue and resembled a Nestle water bottle.
I picked the water bottle up and turned around. As I did, I saw A. She was wearing a white sweater with black stripes going all across it. "Oh my god she looks so beautiful" I thought to myself. At this moment a wave of emotions ran over me on top of the shock that I was experiencing discovering that she was in this class because I had not seen her earlier. She was sitting near the back of the class not far from where I was sitting so I was surprised.

1. Earlier in this dream I was a marine that had been helping out a lady put up some sort of advertising poster. She grew frustrated with me when I asked her where to put it up multiple times, and she would change her mind and where she wanted the poster to be several times. At this point in the dream I felt like I was a very inadequate marine, and this woman made me doubt my ability as one. I ended up just ditching her. During this entire time I was in what looked to be the stock room of some sort of huge building. The walls were either concrete or some sort of dull metal with little or no shine to it. The ground was just plain concrete but it was dirty. Overall this entire stock room I was in, along with a few other people, a marine, and the lady I mentioned earlier, was generally really empty.
At this point I walk to the back of this stock room where a metal door is lifted up, sort mimicking a garage door. I walk outside and I see many people just walking around and socializing with others. My friend Zion is currently standing right in front of me. Suddenly I get this weird feeling, and it's as if I have decided to become lucid. Nonetheless I am now lucid and highly self aware. I scope out my surroundings with my attention and see that there is a mall not far ahead of me. "What do I want to do right now?" I think to myself(I had no knowledge that the competition had started tonight so I wasn't competition-goal oriented). A sudden realization comes to me, reminding me that I can do anything now as long as I know that I can do it. "I can bring back Orion Jay; it's definitely been a while" I think to myself once more. Just standing where I am, I know and expect myself to become Orion Jay.
With that I look at my hands and arms and see what looks to be black streaks of blood rushing through my arms. Within seconds I can see that my entire body is now "in suit", but I have only achieved the rough draft version of this suit because I wasn't focused on the full version of it while manifesting it. I have no idea if my face is covered as there is no mirror near me and I'm not concerned about it enough to touch my face. I get an urge within me to fly, but I realize that if I do so I will give away my identity and everyone around me will realize that I am the dreamer(I am creating a story line where the prime base of it at first is that no one knows I am the dreamer). I then start walking through the crowds of people in front of me and approach the mall. "A will be in there somewhere" I told myself, but without determination.
I come up to one of the entrances of the mall, and the one I come up to is part of a store called Kay Jewelers(odd that a jewelry selling place has an entire store to itself). As I walk inside I realize that I have no idea where to start my search for A, but I decide to just do what I do best: explore. In this store, the floor is covered in a soft green carpet and the walls are blue. I walk all the way to the front of the store where the inside of the mall is, and as I do so I pass many areas that are full of women's clothing. At one point, a lady walks into the store from behind me. She seems rather old in age, and she has a vape in her left hand. A store employee who also happened to be a female sees this lady and tells her, "Ma'am, you're not allowed to bring that into the store." I can see that this store employee is of Indian descent. Her statement is quite hypocritical as, in the desk that she is standing behind, she has her own vape laying out in the open.
I continue my way to the front of the store and I as get there I see that the entrance is completely blocked by not only tons of customers, but also a few employees as well. It seems that these customers are in a line waiting to check out, but the line isn't organized very well and they just look like they are all bunched up together. I walk towards these people and try to pass through them. As I do so, the people that I am passing through seem to squeeze me and suddenly I am unable to move. "What the fuck are these people doing?" I think to myself. "Excuse me, I'm just trying to get through" I say to them. Only feet away from me I can see out the entrance and inside the rest of the mall. Suddenly a store employee comes up to me and blocks my view. "You're not going anywhere" she says to me.
Now, if I was more self aware then this would have been no problem, but my awareness was rather low at the moment and I had also gotten highly distracted so now I was stuck. I lost lucidity. Sometime after this I ended up making it through the line of people and I go into the rest of the mall and I see A multiple times.

Supplements Taken: Lucidimine after 6 hours of sleep

1. I became immediately lucid. I looked around and everything seemed familiar, yet I had never been here before. I felt extremely self aware and the dream seemed as stable as a rock( a big rock). At the moment, I was standing on a street. The street looked newly paved as the road was a deep black with bright yellow dashed lines going down it as far as I could see. The sun seemed to just be coming up, and it indeed felt like the morning. I looked all around me. To my right was a large college by the name of "Enlightenment University". The building was enormous and was made out of some sort of white stone. To my left was a neighborhood. It was beautiful; all of the houses looked like an architectural masterpiece and it was perfectly clean. I then realized, this is the world that I always wanted to create. Knowing that, I expected a colossal futuristic city to be behind me as well as a carnival outside of the city to the left of it.
As I turned I saw exactly just that. The city was full of skyscrapers, and all of the buildings looked to be made of some material that resembled black marble/something shiny. All in all the city very well fit the requirements to be seen as a megalopolis, but even that seemed to be an understatement. My curiosity was drawn back to the university. In my head I always daydreamed to go to a college in my lucid dreams, and this was it. I don't know what I expected to learn in it, but I had an idea to go to a "Lucid Dreaming" class where I could learn to master my skills. From where I was standing, the university was a long walk away. I expected an electric powered longboard to appear on the ground to my right, and without delay it did. The board looked to be made of some sort of highly durable white plastic, and was partly translucent. The wheels were a deep black. I didn't see any electric motor on the bottom of the board, but I figured I could just use my mind to propel it.
With that I stepped onto the board and willed it to move forward at a "relatively high speed". Immediately the board starting moving and I found myself going down the long road that led to the university. The ride there took about what seemed to be 5 or so minutes, and as I enjoyed the ride I could feel the wind blowing against me quite strongly, which was odd because there was no storm nor was it cloudy. The thought then came to me, "What am I wearing?". I looked down at my clothes and saw that I was wearing my black and blue imaginary foundation shirt, gray joggers, my black vans, and my black snapback. "Damn this is a hella good outfit" I said out loud. A minute or so later I arrived at the front of the university. There were no cars in front as the parking lot was at the back of the university. As I got off my board, picked it up, and started walking towards the entrance, I once more looked at the name of the university. The word "Enlightenment" was a vibrant neon yellow color, and the word "University" was an electric-looking white.
It then occurred to me that I should try out my dream stabilization technique given to me from my last lucid dream: music. I pulled out my phone and went onto soundcloud. I then looked for my "Chill" playlist, and to my surprise it was there, but it looked slightly different. I scrolled down the playlist, and though I didn't recognize many of the songs, I recognized one, "Make Believe" by Electus. Without my headphones plugged in, I pressed on the song and it began to play. Oddly enough, the music did not play from my phone, but instead played throughout the entire dream world it seemed. The song itself was at a perfect volume to the point where it wasn't too loud, and it sounded very ambient. I remained still for a moment, just taking in the beautiful sound of the music. "This is really happening" I thought.
I started walking up the small set of stairs in front of me and arrived at the doors. Immediately the doors slid open and a cool breeze once more hit me. As I walked inside I looked around. For the most part, the majority of the floor was made of dark black carpet, and the walls were solid white in color with paintings here and there. In the middle of this entrance area that I was standing in, there was a part of the floor that was not carpet, but instead a glossy blue tile that made the shape of a triangle. Above this triangle there was some sort of blue light/energy that floated all the way to the ceiling some 30 feet above me. Looking beyond this I saw a large staircase to my left that went up 7 floors high. Suddenly I hear footsteps to my right, and they seem to be approaching me. As I look over I see a woman that appears to be in her 30s. She has jet black hair that is shoulder length and is wearing a matching black dress as well as black heels. A name tag sat on the left side of her chest with the name "Cheryl" on it.
"We've been expecting you Cory" she says as she walks up to me. At this point I realize that this woman is taller than me. She seems to be about 6' 3", but then I remembered she is wearing heels. I am puzzled by her statement. "How have I been expected? Who is "we"? How the hell does she know my name?" I think to myself. "I see that you are an aspiring oneironaut" she says as she looks at the tattoo I have on my left arm(the tattoo says "Are you dreaming?" in a futuristic font). "Uh, that's right haha" I reply, "So what is this place and why have I been expected?" I ask. "As you may have seen outside, this is Enlightenment University, a place were students come to learn things that are generally perceived as "far-fetched" and "mystical" in your society. As for why you are here, that is beyond me. Students somehow find this place with no intention of doing so. The only thing I know is that all students here have some desire to learn great things and grow in every way possible. We also know a few days prior when a student will be coming and what their interests are and what areas they seek to grow in. From that point we then select the classes we think fit them best and, if they choose, they start taking those classes." she tells me.
At this point, I am left in shock. The moment of brief silence that had been had was interrupted as a bell rang throughout the entire university. Students then start pouring out of classes and I assume are going to their next class. As I scan through all the people I notice that they are of all different age groups and ethnicity. "You better get going, you wouldn't want to be late to orientation." Cheryl says as she hands me a piece of paper. I look at the paper and see that it is my schedule. On my schedule there are 3 classes: ORIENT 2401, ONIERO 5703(or 5793?), and MIND PREP 0601. I have no idea where to go as I have no idea where these classes are, but nonetheless I start making my way up the stairs. "Remember to maintain awareness" I reminded myself while doing so. As I get to the 2nd floor I see a directory of the entire university. Walking up to it I see that there are indeed 7 floors and there are many sets of numbers that tell where each area of classes are. Looking back and forth from my schedule and the directory, I find that the second number in each of my classes represents the floor that the class is on. "So this means, ORIENT is on the 2nd floor, ONIERO is on the 5th, and MIND PREP is on the 6th floor" I say out loud.
The bell suddenly rings and I realize that I am late for my first class. I walk around the 2nd floor through what seems to be an endless maze of hallways. Eventually, I somehow find my first class through reading guidance signs on the walls of each hallway. The door to this class is open to my surprise and I walk in. A man that appears to be in his mid-40's is standing at the front of the class and I assume him to be the professor. "Welcome, take a seat" he says. It is completely quiet at the moment and I struggle to find a seat because the class is almost completely full(Btw this classroom has 10 rows of desks). Seconds later I find a seat near the back of the class and I go to it, but my heart starts racing. In the seat to the direct left of me is A, and I am once again puzzled. I control myself and relax while the professor begins to speak, but questions are racing through my mind. "In case you wondering if you were in the right class or not, this is Orientation 2401 and I am professor Gilche. We're going to start off by introducing ourselves to each other. Have at it." he says.
Immediately everyone starts introducing themselves to the people around them but I stay rather quiet, still thinking of how A is in this class. Seconds later I decide to "introduce" myself to A. As I turn to my left I see that she is already looking at me. "Hey I'm Cory" I say. "Hey I'm A"(obviously not her full name, keeping it one letter for privacy). We shake hands and I can't help but notice how warm and soft to the touch hers are. "I feel like I know you, but I'm not sure" she tells me. At this point I am already lost in my daydreams just from looking into her eyes. I come back to the present moment, "Yeah me too, but I have no idea how" I say(but I'm just going along with her, I obviously know how I know her lol). "So what classes are on your schedule?" she asks. I proceed to tell her my schedule and she tells me hers. She has 3 classes as well, those three being: ORIENT 2401, SELF, and ART, but I don't remember the numbers for those classes.
Suddenly I find myself destabilizing and my vision is fading, but so many emotions are running through me that I can't seem to stabilize and in turn I wake up and my heart is pounding.

Note: Memory was extremely good as I could remember entire conversations, stabilization needs more work as well as emotional control. Couldn't go back to sleep.

1. I was in a room that was made of shiny hardwood floors and hardwood walls as well. The hardwood was light brown in color and it looked of very high quality. There were no windows in this large room, and it was completely empty except for one small blue chair and a small staircase that was upside down on the ceiling. I was already lucid from the start of the dream, and after looking around to see where I was I started contemplating new ways to train my awareness. "If I can just keep myself alone for a while it might make my awareness greater considering I'm never alone in waking life and plus no one would distract me" I said out loud after several seconds of thought. The next idea I had with training my awareness had something to do with the small blue chair, and I think the idea included that I moved the chair in a certain position and/or brought it with me wherever I went.
I turned around and looked back at the staircase on the ceiling. "What a creative dream design" I said out loud. I then noticed that at the top of the staircase there was an oval shaped portal. The actual portal itself looked like black water that was moving calmly. I somehow jumped and climbed the staircase, and as I did so, gravity flipped and I found myself walking upright, up the staircase. As I got right up to the portal I saw my reflection in it, and I immediately noticed that I was naked. The second thing I noticed was that I felt a presence on the other side of the portal. I felt like some monster or something was going to jump through it within seconds. My curiosity made me want to go through, but the fact that I had realized that I was naked had gotten me in the mood to bang a chick.
With that, I walked back down the staircase and saw a door on the wall in front of me. It was a normal door, but I had the feeling it was just a closet on the other side. With little manipulation of the dream or expectation I said to myself "There's going to be a naked chick on the other side of this door which leads to a big room with just a bed in it". With that I opened the door and as I did so I found none of the things I wanted to find. I only found the closet. In the closet it was pretty dark, but not as dark as the portal, and I remember seeing cloths of many types folded neatly and laying on the shelves. Disappointed, I turned around and walked out the main door of the room I was in. This door opened up to my hallway at my house. I then realized that the mostly empty room I was just in was in place where my actual room at my house is, so it was basically my room in short. As I looked into the hallway I became confused at how normal everything was. It literally felt like I was in an exact replica of my house.
The hallway just outside my door was really dark, and the only source of light was coming from my sister's nightlight in her room. However, at the moment she had two night lights. I could see a red and blue light emanating from her room, and these lights were relatively bright. Suddenly my sister got out of her bed and walked up to me. "What are you doing up?" she asked me. At this point I thought to myself, "Aright this is too real, I'm actually awake" and I lost lucidity. Shortly after this the dream destabilized.

1. It was nighttime and I was standing in my driveway, specifically in the spot where I normally park my car, except my car was gone. I look in front of me and see my dad's white Silverado. "Haha, dad doesn't have a truck anymore. He traded it in for a Cocoa colored Suburban because it would fit the entire family considering 3 more family members were moving in with us. I am dreaming." I said aloud. With that I walked down my driveway. At the end of my driveway I stopped and looked around. The main street that is normally in front of my house is now gone and is replaced by an extremely large cul-de-sac. This cul-de-sac is so large that it seems to be equivalent to the size of at least one football field in its overall surface area.
I walked out into the cul-de-sac. All the way across the cul-de-sac I could see a few kids playing around. I think one of them had a scooter as well. I looked up into the night sky; it was perfectly clear, and although it wasn't completely pitch black, I could still see many stars. Seconds later the dream destabilized due to my lack of stabilization and self awareness and I woke up.

2. I am in my driveway once more, and everything looks just as it did in the last dream except for the fact that there were no vehicles in the driveway at all. Because of this, I became Lucid immediately. I had a little self awareness, and the fact that I was in the exact same dream as before both intrigued and excited me. My emotions go the best of me due to my lack of effort to control them and the dream destabilized and I woke up.

1. I was walking in a terminal inside of an airport with my friends Patrick, Dylan, Trey, and Treon. "You ready for this 6 day trip?" Dylan asked me as we walked. "Oh shit, I completely forgot to pack 6 days worth of clothes. Fuck!" I said. They all chuckled. I knew I was screwed and I'd end up having to buy clothes with money from my savings account wherever we went. As we boarded the plane I instantly realized how crowded it was. It appeared that we had showed up relatively late as almost all the seats were taken. Each seating section could seat up to 2 people. Dylan and Patrick decided to cram into a seating section that already had one guy in it, so now there was 3 people sitting in 2 seats. Trey and Treon sat in the seats behind them. The next closest open seat was 3 or 4 rows down. "Thanks for saving me a spot guys" I said feeling a little hurt(lmao).
I sat down in the seat next to a random guy and waited for the plane to take off. As I did so I looked around. I saw that it was extremely sunny outside considering the sunlight reflecting off of the windows was quite blinding. I became a little stressed as I thought once more about how unprepared I was. I opened up my backpack and looked inside to see what I had brought with me. As I looked inside all I saw was my phone charger, my vape, and my vape juice. "Wow this is great. I have absolutely nothing I need at all besides my charger" I thought to myself. I then began thinking once more about all the money I would have to spend to get the stuff I needed to make it through this 6 day trip.
The plane started its procedure for take off and I found a wave of fatigue coming over me. I laid my head on the headrest on my seat and closed my eyes. Somehow as I fell asleep in the plane I went into another dream, and I consciously knew this as it happened. Now I found myself walking along the catwalk of an ancient temple like structure. It was getting dark and the sky along with the sun was obscured by thick trees all around. I was walking behind Patrick and Treon, going who knows where. Suddenly lucidity came to me. "This is a dream" I said out loud. "This can't possibly be real because right now I'm actually asleep on the plane, and even past that, I'm asleep on my bed in waking life" I thought to myself. I stopped walking. Treon and Patrick looked back at me. "Aright I'm out, later guys" I told Pat and Treon as I started walking away. "What the hell Cory don't leave" Pat said. "Yeah you never do anything anything anyways" Treon said.
I ignored them and walked into the temple through the nearest door. I walked in through a glass door with a black frame around it, it was quite out of place considering the whole ancient setting. As I walked inside I noticed how nice the interior was. The whole interior looked like a professional office setting. There were offices everywhere I looked, each one closed off by glass walls. The floor was covered in dark green matte tiles and the walls were a soft white. "What am I doing in here?" I said out loud. With that I walked back out the door that I came in from and as I did so I jumped and took flight with an extremely smooth take off. As I increased my elevation rather slowly, I saw a small statue of a heart made out of stone on top of the temple. This instantly made me think of her- the girl I've been trying to find in my dreams forever.
Just then I lost my stabilization and found myself flying up into the air at an immense speed. I was now past the trees and was flying straight up into a dark blue night sky with few but thick clouds. As the dream fully destabilized I woke up, but now I was back in the plane. I found myself rather alert, but without lucidity back on the plane. I looked around too see where we were, but as I did so the plane transformed into a large half bus half train automotive. I looked back behind us as we continued on our way. I saw a large light green tank on the opposite side of the freeway from where we were. It was aiming at a building. "That thing is about to shoot" I thought to myself. Sure enough, the tank fired a missile at the building it was aimed at. "Holy shit" I yelled. Everyone on the bus looked back and saw the explosion, but showed no reaction so the bus was now dead silent.
Suddenly everything started collapsing, and the bus/train driver was now constantly dodging and weaving through falling bridges and cars from the highway that was above us. The ground was also splitting now as well, and many cars were stopping out of no where(The dream was collapsing). I noticed that there was another bus in front of the one I was in that looked fairly similar to mine. The bus driver seemed to be following it in a convoy-like formation. Suddenly a huge part of the highway above us fell down right in front of the bus that was in front of the one I was on. That bus as well as my bus stopped as we there was no where else to go. "Holy shit we're gonna die" I said out loud. Just then another part of the highway above us fell and crushed the bus in front of us as well as my bus.
I now found myself in a void, but only for a matter of seconds. After what seemed to be 2 or 3 seconds I was back at the ancient temple. I found myself lucid once again as I immediately recognized where I was at. "Aright this has to be a dream considering I was here not long ago, and I just know it is." I was walking on a wide path of sandstone that had cracks filled with plant life here and there. Not far in front of me were 2 armed men in military like outfits that looked to be of hispanic descent. I ran and jumped in an attempt to fly, but had no success. I tried twice more and still could not fly. I knew the exact reason was because I just wasn't believing in myself for some reason.
Now I decided to just walk around and explore for the time being. I came upon a mini bridge like structure. It wasn't one that someone could walk on though; it looked more like a sculpture of some sort. The 2 hispanic men were now approaching me at this point. Because I got too intrigued by the sculpture, I lost my lucidity. "Hey guys, what is this bridge-like art all about?" I asked the 2 men. They just stopped and looked at me sternly. Seconds later they pulled out their automatic rifles which highly resembled tommy guns and pointed them straight at me. I didn't stand to wait for an answer from them; I turned around and sprinted away. For some reason the men didn't shoot at me, and I thought I was going to make it out alive until out of no where I saw a grenade land only about a foot in front of me.
I continued sprinting past the grenade and I made it far enough away that I knew I would survive. However, I was still worried about the shrapnel hitting me. I made it through without being hurt at all, but seconds later another grenade was thrown at me, except this one landing a foot or so behind me. I sprinted and jumped to the ground and the grenade exploded. I immediately got up and resumed running as far away from the 2 men as possible. Once more, another grenade was thrown at me, but this one landed about 2 yards in front of me, and by the time I stopped myself I knew the grenade was going to blow up in a matter of milliseconds. I jumped away from the grenade with all of my strength and covered my face and head. The grenade blew up and I expected to be hit by shrapnel, but I was not.
I got up off of the ground and looked at where the grenade blew up. I was extremely surprised that I didn't get hurt. I looked back where the 2 men were, and they had their guns pointed at me again. This time I knew they were going to shoot. I ran and took cover behind a large shelf-like structure that was holding tons of wheels on it. The men started shooting at me just as I got behind cover. Their bullets went straight through all of the tires, and by some miracle I didn't get hit with one of them though I could hear the bullets ricochet off of the metal part of the shelf I was hiding behind.
After a minute or so the men stopped shooting. I got up from my crouched position and saw that my vape had fallen out of my pocket and was now broken in half. "God damnit, I paid 100 bucks for that" I said as a tear streamed out of my right eye and down my face. Seconds later some people and friends came to comfort me.

1. I was inside of a large apartment. In this apartment the walls were painted a dark tan color and the floor was hardwood flooring. A party was going on, so the main lights were off and neon lights of many colors were flashing all around the apartment. I started walking around and just observing what was going on. I saw my two friends Dylan and Patrick, but they were each on opposite sides of the apartment. The biggest and most alive part of the party was in the living room section considering it was the biggest area. Many people were dancing, some were drinking, and others were just socializing.
I walked up to dylan "Dude I had no idea you were here" I said. "Yeah dude I just got here. It's pretty lit" he replied. "For sure bro" I said. Just then my attention was diverted to a girl about my age who was sitting down at a table all by herself. She had light brown hair and blue eyes and was wearing an extremely sexy dress. Considering her legs were crossed it made her even more sexier than I initially found her. I saw an empty seat next to her, so I walked up to her table and sat down. Upon immediately sitting down I got a better look at her. She seemed to be of Russian descent, and this added onto her sexiness as well.
"So why are you sitting down all alone?" I asked. "I've been waiting for guys to approach me, just like you have just done" she replied. As she said this, I was checking her out. She had an extremely sexy slim body, and I couldn't get my mind off of how bad I wanted to fuck her. "Well, I'm here now. Your search for men is over" I said with a laugh. "It appears so, but in all honesty, I'm looking more for a boyfriend" she giggled. So that came out of no where, and although I wasn't desperate I did want to date her. "I can take on that job" I told her. "Well if you do, there are requirements to be my boyfriend" she said. She then proceeded to test me by asking me a series of questions that I don't remember.
I remember passing the test and I pulled her closer to me, and she didn't resist. We then began making out, but just as it was starting to get really hot, a group of men that looked to be a part of the government stormed in the apartment from the front door and came up to us. They pointed guns at her and shot her. I had no idea what was going on. Suddenly the entire party turned to chaos. People got frantic. Somehow a guy got everyone's attention and calmed them down and things returned to normal even though there was now the dead body of a young woman on the floor.
I got up not knowing what to do. I decided to go outside and see what was going on out there. As I walked out the front door I came to a huge balcony that also had a park on it, which was odd considering this apartment was high up on the side of a steep hill. The moon was shining bright in the sky, and it lighted up the grass that the entire park, slides, and all were sitting on. I walked onto the grass from the front porch of the apartment and approached the park. I climbed up the whole park arrangement and found myself at least 15-20 feet off of the ground. Suddenly a strong breeze came through the park and I felt a blast of steady cool air hit me. As I looked below me I could see all the blades of grass moving with the wind. I looked around me and noticed that there were also trees on this balcony as well. They were fairly large and thick, and filled with dark green leaves.
As the wind hit the trees and caused them to sway with it, a huge group of kangaroos and koalas emerged from them. The koalas were actual size, but the kangaroos seemed to be rather small, so they could actually pass as wallabies. I noticed that these animals were coming out of the trees rather quickly, as though they were after something. I continued to watch them as they got closer to where I was on top of the park. It then hit me, these animals were after me. They all suddenly jumped onto the slides and the park as a whole and started climbing towards me. I had no idea what to do, so I just stayed where I was. I figured once they got to me I would just be really nice to them and pet them.
Seconds later the wallabies and koalas got to me. For a second they all stopped and stared at me. There must have been at least 20 wallabies and koalas combined. "Uh hey guys" I said for a reason I do not know. I put out my hand to pet the wallaby closest to me, and as I did, he bit me. It was then that all of the wallabies and koalas started charging me and jumping on to me. Once they got on me they proceeded to bite me. I started yelling for help, and the 15 or so people that were in my vicinity just looked up at me and did nothing. I continued to struggle and fight off the animals, but nothing was working.
Suddenly in the distance I hear loud sirens go off. I look down at the city below the apartment I was at and see people crowding the streets. The sirens got louder and it sounded like the sirens the military uses when a home base is being attacked or bombed. Immediately as these sirens started the animals that were attacking me froze, looked back at the city, and then ran off in the opposite direction. Just then another huge gust of wind hit where I was and almost caused me to fall off of the top of the slides where I was standing. I slid down the slide and ran inside back to where the party was. As I got inside I searched for Dylan. Within seconds I found him. I went up to him "Dude do you not hear the sirens outside?" I asked. "You're lying dude I don't hear anything" he replied. "Get up and come outside, you have to hear this" I told him.
With that he got up and we both walked out the front door and were now standing on the porch. The sirens were still going strong and as we both looked down at the city we saw bright lights on the streets that weren't there before. The whole city was lit up now whereas before, it was dark and asleep. Not far ahead of us on the balcony I noticed a group of at least 15 completely naked women. "Aright I'm dreaming" I said to myself. I looked over and Dylan and the look on his face was that "Holy shit this is amazing" face. "Well, we're both lucid Dylan" I say. "Hell yeah dude, and I know exactly what I'm going to do" he tells me.
He goes up to the closest naked female to him and starts fucking her. I feel like this should disturb me, but Dylan is one of my closest bros so I don't care. "I really want to fuck one of these girls, but that's not what I'm here to do" I think to myself. I look past the women and look down at the city. The sirens have stopped, but street lights still illuminate the entire city. I can hear footsteps down at the street some 30 feet below us. I see a group of kids my age and there is a man who has them all gathered together and he is talking to them. I get the feeling that he is talking to them about joining a lucid school, or a lucid dreaming team or something of the sort. I get a strong feeling that I should go down there, but I don't.
Instead, my attention is now on one of the naked women in front of me. She is laying on a pool chair and is arching her to the point where her boobs look amazing. "God damn it" I say. I then walk up to the woman and run my hands all over her body. I then start sucking her tits and she moans in pleasure. Just as I get my dick out and am about to fuck her, I lose my stability within the dream and wake up.
Seconds later I re-enter the exact same dream, except now I'm on the side of the apartment. Patrick and Austin are with me. We are walking around the apartment and checking out to see if there's any activity on the streets. The only sources of light we have is our phones and the occasional street light. We walk to another apartment and as we do we see a man. The man looks highly prestigious and is wearing a white tuxedo and is riding a fully white horse with golden equipment on it. Walking behind him seem to be his guards and they are wearing dark green military like outfits; they look to be the same guys that killed my soon-to-be Russian girlfriend earlier.
Pat, Austin, and I are making sure to stay dead silent to avoid being detected. We watch the man in the white tuxedo continue riding his horse down the street. He is looking closely at all the apartments looking for people. Just then he turns his head and looks straight at us. "Holy fuck, run guys run" Austin says in a loud frantic whisper. Immediately we all jet it back to the apartment where the party was at, but we don't go inside, we just go to the backyard section of it and duck behind the fence. In the backyard there are no lights whatsoever except the light provided by a somewhat distant white streetlight. About a minute into just chilling in this backyard area, a car busts through the fence and stops right in front of us. A white man that looks to be in his mid or late 40s gets out. As he does so, I look into the car and see another white dude along with an old african american woman.
The guy that got out of the car approaches Patrick, Austin and I and points a gun at me. "I'm going to fucking kill all 3 of you" he says. At this point I realize that I'm really about to die. "Wait, I have 60 bucks in my wallet. I'll give it to you if you don't kill us" I say. The man agrees and keeps his gun pointed at me while I get out my wallet and get the money. I actually have just about 100 dollars, but I don't want to give him all of it. I pull out 3 20 dollar bills and hand it to him. He grabs the money, puts it in his wallet, and then for some reason places his wallet on the fence. He then gets back into his car and drives off. "Guys, that guy is a fucking idiot, he left his wallet" I tell Pat, Austin, and Trey who is now suddenly with us.
I go up to the fence and grab his wallet, but as I do so some change he had falls out and onto the ground. Trey quickly picks it up and we start walking away. Seconds later the same mid/late 40s guy pulls up and gets out of his car and starts sprinting towards us. "You stole my wallet, now I'm really going to kill you boys" he yells. We run to the apartment where the party was at and rush inside. Pat and Austin make it inside first, and for some reason they closed the back door which they entered through and didn't even wait for me. Trey disappeared and is no where to be seen. I finally make it to the back door. I struggle for a few seconds to open it, and as I do so I can just feel the guy with the gun trying to kill me getting closer and closer to me.
Finally I get the door open. I rush inside and close and lock the door behind me. I don't know where Patrick is, but I see Austin laying on the couch in the living room.

1. I had just left some neighborhood park. It was nighttime and the sky was clear. I had been riding a scooter around the neighborhood park when I realized how late it was. I rode my scooter out of the park and found myself on a random street. All around me there were houses and cars in the driveways of these houses. It was completely silent all in this neighborhood, and everyone seemed to be asleep. I looked above me and saw a relatively bright orange street light, and these were all up and down the street I was on. I looked in front of me and noticed a bright white light. Seconds later I look down at the scooter I am on and realize that there is a flashlight installed into its frame.
Suddenly, two guys on bikes come from around the corner and ride over to me. They stop about 4 or 5 feet in front of me and start talking to me. I don't remember what they said, but I knew I had to be getting home right now. After we talked for a few minutes I looked behind me for some reason. As I did so I saw my bike and longboard just laying on the ground. I went over to them and picked them up, but I had no idea how I was going to bring them, and my scooter all home at the same time. I walk out onto the street and stop for a moment. "Could this be a dream?" I ask myself, "I heavily doubt it, but I'll do a reality check anyways." I counted my fingers, and something was wrong with my hand but I don't remember what. "Holy shit I am dreaming" I said out loud in a neutral voice. I then became lucid.
I hear someone approaching me from my left, and I as look over I see my friend Gigi walking towards me. She is wearing a pink tank top and pink short shorts along with white shoes. "Lets see if I can fly" she says. She then jumps up and starts flying on her stomach very low to the ground. She seemed to be only about 1 or 2 feet into the air. Seconds later she flies into a large open dark green shipping crate and I don't see her again. "Aright, time to check out my flying skills" I say out loud. I then ran and jumped into the air and immediately after that I found myself flying, however, I was flying really low to the ground just as Gigi was. I moved my hands a certain way and this instantly increased my altitude by launching me up into the sky at an extremely immense speed. I could feel the Positive G force acting on my body; it felt as though I was riding a roller coaster that was going straight up. Within seconds I found myself way up into the dark night sky. It was too high for my comfort at the moment so I lowered my altitude.
I remembered my dream plan; I knew what I had to do know. "I have to create a time dilation watch" I said to myself. With that I looked for the nearest house and started flying towards it. The first house I saw was a two story house made of mostly wood that was painted white. It looked like a normal house by all means. As I got up to the house I increased my speed and flew straight through one of its second story windows which caused the window to break. As I got up off of the floor that I had crash landed on inside, I looked around. This room had off-white walls with a thick curly brown carpet and dark brown furnishings everywhere. I remember the room fairly resembled my parents master bedroom in my waking life house.
This led me to believe this was my dads bedroom, but I was still lucid. "Aright, lets find one of dad's watches" I said to myself. I could've easily just manifested a watch or made one appear in the first drawer I opened, but instead I decided to look in all the drawers to find one, and so I did. I went through all of the drawers in one dresser, but found no watches, so I went to another dresser and opened 3 more. On the 3rd drawer I opened up, I found my dads old watch. "This would work, but I want one of his new watches" I said out loud. Just then I did something that caused the dream to destabilize and I woke up. I laid motionless and within seconds entered the exact same dream and am still lucid. I'm now in the same room as before, but I can see through the window I broke through that it is daylight outside now.
I looked behind me and the doors to the room were now open. "It's time to wake up!" I hear a man say from downstairs. I walk out of the bedroom and see a man of indian descent standing in the foyer downstairs. I turn back to go back into the room to find one of my dads new watches, and as I do so I notice that outside of the master bedroom I was in, the entire house closely resembles my waking life house. As I walk back into the room thinking about her(The DC girl I've been trying to find forever). I'm not sure if I saw her or what, but something happened that involved her.

Note: I made huge progress in this dream because I for once focused on creating a time dilation watch. In my next lucid, tonight, I will complete the watch. This has been one of my dream goals for over a year now. This will be the beginning of something huge.
