Fragment the first:
Long road trip with the roommates. Stopped at an old home of mine wanting to show them our old clubhouse. One roommate fell into a hole and broke her ankle.
Fragment the second:
Found an "armored leech" in an alley. It was roughly the size of an American Football and looked like a cross between a leech, a lamprey, and an armored sturgeon. It attached itself to my roommates shoe (different one from before). She said it wasn't attached to her directly, but her shoe was indeed full of blood from an injury she sustained (her foot had been crushed). I used my healing powers to fix her foot.
Lucid:
I had just time traveled to the future. It was pretty cool. People were zipping around on devices that looked like gyroscopically stabilized electric unicycles. When they ran out of power, they were collapsible and you would just return them to a vending machine. If you weren't done with your trek, and didn't want to walk the rest of the way, then you could get another one fully charged.
I was walking around just taking in the sights when I noticed a checkpoint. People had to walk through big things which looked like the scanners at airports. There was a man in front of me in line with a book. Upon seeing this, the person obviously running the checkpoint (played by Morgan Freeman) noticed his book. He told him that all books needed to be scanned to make sure they weren't contraband. The man inserted the book into a machine, and the scan came back that it was indeed contraband. I too had a book. I hadn't noticed it before, but I was carrying around a graphic novel. I was then asked to do the same as the man in front of me.
I did so, and this time I watched with curiosity to see what the machine would pop up. The error it threw was something like "not biblically compatible". I remember wondering if this was in reference to the Christian Bible, or if it was more like "biblio" as in "book". Seeing as how this was the distant future, both were a possibility.
At that point, Morgan Freeman got on his com and called for a swat team, we were to be arrested as subversives. I suppose he expected us to submit. He was right about the first man, he was wrong about me. I had been moderately lucid this whole time, really just observing. I then took the reins.
Six glowing sickly-green orbs roughly twice the size of basketballs appeared behind me chained to my back. These are conduits to the concept of venom. Everyone was quite shocked to see them appear. Morgan Freeman exclaimed "what the-?" and I issued a palm strike to two people, infusing them with venom. They immediately fell over unconscious. I reached out and grabbed Morgan Freeman, but he merely responded with "You're not the only special person, I'm resistant to these sorts of things."
A smirk crossed my face as the orbs disappeared and reappeared as vivid white. I punched him in the face and electricity surged through his body. He fell over. I then grabbed the heads of the two unconscious people and basically erased their memories of the past couple of hours with a good shock. I was wondering what I should do next when I realized that Morgan Freeman wasn't down for the count, he was trying to get the books transported somewhere so at least they would be separated from us and used as evidence against us.
The machine they were in was housed in a large brick pillar, so now the white orbs disappeared and reappeared as floating brown rock spheres. They seemed rather paradoxical as they seemed to shine stone. I realize that doesn't make a lot of sense, but that's what they do. Now that I was aligned with earth, I pushed over the brick pillar like it was made of straw and retrieved both books. I handed the first book back to its original owner and said "you know, we should probably get out of here".
At that point, I let the reins slip back to my subconscious and simply observed. I was then on a journey with this person to find an equal. It had been determined that I was probably the most powerful person on the planet due to my abilities. We were flying around the wastelands at this point when I came across a small girl fighting a giant ogre.
At first she appeared to only be dancing. It wasn't until the ogre tried to smash her that she did a little hip twist which corresponded to thick vines bursting from the ground up and over her, hardening into wood instantly blocking the blow. She then did a little kick and spin, which caused vines to grab the ogre and throw him. She was apparently the last of the wood dancers and controlled plants with her body. It was apparently a very intuitive process. It couldn't be done with thought. It was done through emotion. She did little kicks, twists and so forth causing the ogre to be smacked around, bound and thrown. Eventually it fled. I doubt she was my equal, but she sure was cool, so I landed to say hello before I woke up.
