Short Stories with Tragic Endings

I am in some dark room with my best friend and I am playing a piano. He
is giving me different keys and I am improvising in each. Later, I am sitting
in a chair and he is also in the room, but it is not him. He looks more like a
friend from college. He talks about how he is sad that he never gets any
phone calls and the dream ends.

I am taking a nap and fall asleep

I am playing a game where there are dungeons and such and the whole game is a massive maze.
I go around this maze for a very long time, this is a 2 hour long dream. The character is Amaterasu
but the game is nothing like Okami At some point, I get this power-up that allows me to duplicate my
character or teleport it. I continue through the maze, it is quite a labyrinth, and eventually I realize
there is a map map and every now and then I look at it and realize that I'm in a completely different
section than I thought I was and remember. I have this icon for my character and I notice the same
icon on other places of the map. I remember that I can switch between and that I had gotten the
power-up that lets me teleport. I pressed some button and was able to move one of them around on
the map. I exited the map and the character shot over to the new position. I see big blue letters on the
screen saying 62 remaining. I was like wow, I must have built up a lot of points to get that many charges
for this power-up. But then I got bored and stopped playing the game. I am in my room at home talking
to my mom on the phone. I am talking with headphones I have plugged in to it and somehow my
connectivity is shown on the computer screen. She tells me she is going to some meeting thing, I can't
remember what its for, and she doesn't know how long it will be, but after a short conversation the call
cuts out. I am on my computer playing some desktop defense style game and it somewhat resembles the
map from the last game. For some reason I keep trying to get a hold of my mom. I pull down a list of
numbers on my screen and non of them are her name. It only shows the numbers that you can connect to,
like a wifi card would with networks. I have this strange fear of something bad happening. I try for a very
long time to get a hold of her but the signal is just too bad. Every now and then I'll start a game, but I won't
even finish the first round, then shut it off. I get up and go to go downstairs. Halfway out my bedroom door
I realize my headphones are still in. I turn around, take them off, and throw them on the bed. I walk out and
look out the window adjacent to my door. I can see flashes of blue light in the sky that indicate a storm. That
explains to me why the phone connectivity was so bad. I walk down stairs and realize in the back of my mind
that I am dreaming but I'm not really aware of it. I wonder, "This is a dream, my family is probably going
to be messed up ad hostile in some way" as most of my dreams are. I walk down and my brother is standing
in the hallway outside our computer room and my dad is doing something on his computer. My Mom is in the
room next to that. My Dad sees me and yells "Go back upstairs!". Everyone becomes hostile as I thought and
starts coming toward me. I am standing at the foot of the stairs but in the rec-room and my brother and mom
advance on me. I "decide" that this would be better to handle lucid. I literally willed myself to become lucid
and everything became extremely vivid, it wasn't a fuzzy dream to begin with, and I push everyone back with
my mind. unfortunately, the fast transition into lucidity woke me up. I am laying in my bed in a very dreamlike
state. I am disoriented and feel almost as if I am in sleep paralysis, but as soon as I realize where I am and
what had happened, I feel no paralysis and I get up, reality check ( passes ), and I scribble down notes on the
dream.

I am in a chair in in dark room that looks like a common room or something. I am sitting there under
covers, going to sleep I guess, but my eyes are open. I see some guy I don't know walk by and go out
the door. I look over at the TV ( CRT ) which has suddenly turned on and it is as if it is angled away from
me. The screen is the glitchy purple color an lcd gets when viewed from an angle. The tv is slowly turning
toward me and finally the color resolves. I think it is "That 70's Show". I wake up. It is dark and in my dorm
at college. I should have realized that I have been sleeping in for a while now and it should be light but I
didn't. I wake up, without moving, I think about the dream and decide not to write it down. Instead, I
decide to try WILDing. I remain still and the sleep paralysis comes instantly. I feel immense pressure practically
contorting my body. I feel like one of those mutating creatures from horror movies. My foot is on the edge
of the bed and slips off, the "transition" dies down a bit but when my foot stops it continues again. I think,
"It was not this intense the first time." then it stops. I think, maybe I've entered a dream? No, no I haven't.
I get angry with myself and wake up for real. I decide, a false awakening would be a good thing to
put in my dream journal

My dad gives me a 12 dollar bill and my brother an 11. For some reason, he decides that I should not have
anything so he says I have to give it back but he forgets about it so I keep it. I am in my room looking at this
lucid dreaming article or something. I also have DreamViews up on my computer. All of a sudden Stephen Laberge
shows up in my room and I'm like wow It's Stephen Laberge. But he turns out to be this fraudulent idiot. I remember
actually looking at his computer and he had his website up and DreamViews in another tab. He didn't look like any
of the pictures I have seen of him, he looked more like a bum off the street. Anyway, my family and I goes on this trip.
We arrive at a dark hotel and Laberge had apparently followed us there. My dad is looking through his wallet when he
says "Where's that 12 dollars?" I said, "I have it right here.", "Why didn't you give it to me? That's stealing!" I argued
the point saying that he never asked for it and I forgot as well and I am giving it to him now. The dream ends

I am at my best friend's house and my friend, his sister, and my crush are all there. There
is also someone else that somewhat resembles a friend from college. The premise is that I am
no longer a Section Leader in my high school's band which is strange because I never was a
section leader, but the friend from college is taking my place. We have this huge discussion but
I don't remember quite how it went then I go over to the dining room and grab a roast beef
sandwich that is on the table. I eat it, and the dream ends

I am in a classroom and the teacher is collecting work. Most of the students are either, not
there or don't have the work she is collecting so she gets very angry.

That's all I remember

I am sitting in a classroom and the teacher is partnering people up for something. I hope my
partner will be someone I get along with. When she calls my name I listen for the name of
my partner. The teacher says "Astral Pixels". A boy turns around in his seat a little ways in
front of me and the dream ends. I wake up and think, wow I just had a dream involving
someone from DV.

I am on a bus and I have my Alto Saxophone. There is a lady going around having people play
for some sort of audition. She gets to me and I play "Sonata for Eb Alto Saxophone by Wolfgang
Jacobi". She then goes on down the rest of the bus. The dream ends.

I am walking through the woods behind my house with my best friend. We are talking about
how airplane food is really bad. My parents come out and start talking about how he is up to
no good. He argues that he is going to "AAT" or something and they say he has to get accepted
first and that that won't happen. The dream ends there.

I am in some sort of indoor zoo. This college girl is doing a project with foxes and
she is standing beside a large glass pen that has been set up for them. There are three
foxes and they are snow white. They look to be half way between cub and adulthood and
very closely resemble the arctic fox. The snout is slightly longer though. But they are just
as cute . the girl picks one of the foxes out of the pen and brings it over to me. This
dream is very vivid and I can see the fox in stunning detail although I am not lucid. I
carefully reach out my hand and stroke the fox's soft, snowy, fur. It is such a beautiful animal.

Arctic Fox

I have attempted a MILD and finally fall asleep after being kept up for a while by my mantra.
I have a very unique dream. I have only had one other like it in my entire life. My
vision was black and I was literally just thinking. No body, no sounds. Just visualizations and
thought. The subject of these thoughts was lucid dreaming. The one time I did this before was
about recursive methods in programming which I was only able to describe as a "dream in code".
I remember having a "eureka" moment with something in that subject area but I didn't remember
what it was when I woke up.

I am in the same setting as the last dream only this time the building is much
bigger. There is an elevator and I am currently on the sixth floor. A guy, probably
in his sixties, is leading this coalition to take over the world and I disagree
with his views. Noone seems to care though as long as I don't interfere. I try to
destroy his plans on the sixth floor but the leader notices and tells me to follow
him. I do and he takes me to the elevator.

I wake up, then fall asleep back into the dream.

He drops me off at the second floor then proceeds up to go wherever he was needed.
He had also disabled the elevator stop mechanism so I couldn't get back to the sixth
floor. The elevator would just take me to the top floor and stop. I get into the
elevator on the second floor and press the button to take me up to six. I wait for a
while and think... "now". I hit a red button and the elevator comes to a stop. The
indicator for the fifth floor lights up. I open the doors and get out. I am in a sort
of shopping mall setting. I am walking through and a friend from college says hi to me.
I know he is working for the old guy so I am warry but I play along. He asks me where
I'm going and I say I'm looking for the stairs to the sixth floor. big mistake. He thinks
about it for a while then pulls a gun on me. He says "I know what you are doing, I can't
let you interfere." I don't recall what happens after that but I somehow manage to get
away from him. I see the leader and follow him up a staircase on the far end of the room
and through a door. Then I wake up.

I am in a building and there are some other people there as well. It is around
10PM. We all decide to do something at 5am so I think "I have seven hours to
finish my school work. I log on to my laptop which just happens to be in the room
and then end up not doing anything after all. 5 am hits and I still haven't done
anything. Instead I have just drawn a bunch of wallpapers in gimp. The guy who
organized everything comes up and gets everyone together and we go somewhere in
the building. He gives a some sort of test, the details of which I do not recall.
The dream ends.

I am at the top of a water-slide in an amusement park. The attendant tells me the one side is
something the other side is something else, I can't remember what they were, but the single
tube has a right side that looks like the water is flowing faster than the left. I jump in
and ride down the slide. I am going fast but then I slow down and stop. I tsunami of water
comes up and pushes me back up the other way. After a while, I stop from that and start going
back the previous direction. After several other direction changes due to a massive water wall,
I come out the end. I am in a desert-like place but it is still supposed to be the amusement
park. I see some friends from high school and hug my one friend. It is a very long "Bear hug".
When I step back, I say I have to go to the bathroom and go over to the beginning area of what
is now not so surely a park. The entrance looks like the entrance to my house and the tile floor
cuts off into the dirt ground of the desert. As I get near the bathroom, there is a little dog that
comes up and "attacks" me, but is quite harmless. I go into the bathroom and it is more like a
closet so full the door won't close. There is a toilet on the ground but you can't get in the room
for privacy and you definitely can't sit down. Above the toilet is a safe being protected by a very
nasty looking bulldog. I relieve myself in the toilet and walk away. I then find myself in a bed. It
is like my bed at college but bigger. I am in a room where the bed is against the wall in the same
way it is in my dorm. I see my dog, Cinders, but he is completely black. Somehow I know it is him.
I beckon him to come jump up on the bed. He does. Later, he gets down and my other dog, Chelsea,
comes up. My Dad walks in and says something like "Why don't you have Cinders up there?" I reply
"I do". I have no idea why. I then find myself back in the desert setting. Now, there is fire everywhere.
There are tanks, helicopters, and soldiers with high tech guns. There is a general who is leading
everyone. A guy tells me that the general is God come down from heaven and a guy touched him
once and instantly died. Somehow I knew it was true. I go out to the battlefield and there is a helicopter
with a spotlight. This evil woman yells over a megaphone, "Those of you who allege with him will be
shot!". Several people go to the general and stand right next to him, making their point. The woman
shoots at them and they return fire. The fighting goes on for a while. I am just trying to avoid the tanks
and the mortars that are coming down everywhere. The woman comes up in her helicopter and again
says, "If you allege with him you will be shot!". I walk back to God and put my arm around his shoulder.
The woman shoots at me but doesn't hit and the dream ends.

I am in the middle of a railroad track. There is a bridge in the distance and there is a lot of
tall grass where I'm standing. I am in a small valley and there is a short trail up to the side
where the bridge is. I go up the trail and essentially I'm lost. Then the dream snaps to the
middle of what looks like London, I have never been to London so I don't know, but Adam and
I are standing on the sidewalk against a wrought iron rail that guards a drop down to a lower
level. Adam's mom pulls up in their Blue Honda Accord and I get in. Adam hands me a bicycle
helmet and I put it on. We arrive at this banquet or wedding reception or something and I take
off the helmet. At the time when this happens, I am not in the car but more floating about 15
feet about the ground. I look around at the reception for a while from a sky-view
and I wake up
