    1. Sparta Fragment

      by , 09-21-2012 at 09:49 PM (Cinder's Dreams Gallery)
      This is a really vague fragment because I was tired from a little indigestion episode last night and didn't recall when I woke up. I only recalled while I was on my laptop when I realized I didn't recall my dream. It was lucky that I am quite practiced when it comes to recall salvaging so I caught the essence of it.

      It is something about me playing a game in my school dormitory. It is a fantasy game, and one of my quests are to stab Xerxes.

      Commentary non-lucid

      I was on vacation for the weekend and didn't have a great chance to work on my dreaming. I had one dream that was memorable that I will relate.

      I went on a walk with my family. To my dismay, my dad brought along the family dog . While walking, it started shitting. It went several times in a large circle and made what looked like a mushroom fairy ring. The problem was that we didn't have anything to pick it up with. My dad was about to walk back to the apartment to get a plastic bag but I just wanted to get on with our walk. I walked into the street where there was a lot of trash. I thought there would be some bags available. There were but they were mostly dirty. I found one that was fairly clean and started cleaning the crap. Some punk rock looking people arrived and one of them who was pretty large started helping me put crap in my bag. He missed and the crap landed on my shirt and pants. I got pissed and started to argue with him. He was giggling that he did it and I wanted to start a fight. I put up my hands into fighting position and took on the form of many different fighters that I've seen including an old man fighting a young whippersnapper, a kung fu fighter, and some others. As this transformation was occurring, me and the guy started to lose our anger and it became fun. Other concerned people were descending upon us, about to break us up. I turned and reassured them with a song.... "It's just a faaaantasy, no need to woooory. It's just a faaaantasy...something something something." I don't know if this meant that I knew that I was dreaming or that I knew that we were just play fighting.

      Later, I was in a house where a party was occurring. I don't recall much now, but I know that at one point my grandfather died. I felt bad because it was my fault. At that, he came back to life and then just disappeared. We were like, "he disappeared!"

      Some people were trying to take a picture with me, but I didn't know who they were.
    3. Wizard World Fragments

      by , 06-09-2012 at 02:11 PM (Life's Dream Accounts)
      I had really vague dreams last night that consisted of people's voices and flashes of different scenes.

      It seemed like I was thinking a lot about Game of thrones season finale and so this mixed with my ideas about fantasy and dark ages.

      When this was tucked into my head while sleeping I was talking in my sleep/dream to a little girl who was chasing or wanting to find her "mummy" and she reminded me of Hermione Granger from some reason or at-least that was what I saw in a dream flash, Hermione Granger.

      I then saw this little girl who was about 2-years-old or so in a little baby-blue bathing suit sitting near a pool edge smiling with a really big smile, it was like I was looking at a photograph of a child. She had really light blonde hair and had her hair in pigtails that where held together with pink ties. After seeing this picture I then started to hear the little girl again. It was like she wanted someone's attention or something.

      I also had a short vivid dream where I was in a zoo/park but it was deserted and I was running away from some zombies. The weird part was the the zombies where below me like i was gliding in the air. I then got past the zoo/park and got to some national forest of some type and then said something like "Yeah, I'm lost." but then this guy who looked like Harry Potter (he looked like both the actor and my idea of what he looked like in the books) came from behind me like he had been following me and said something like "Isn't she a beauty." He didn't seem like he was asking about the beauty of the forest but more like he was claiming it to be. But then I remember the part in the book/movie when Hagrid was with Harry and his friends showing him Norbert when Hagrid says : Isn't he beautiful? Oh bless him, look, he knows his mummy! Hello, Norbert!

      This is kind of Ironic because I was thinking about the dragons from game of thrones. Haha.
    4. Past weeks dreams

      by , 05-14-2012 at 05:18 PM (Shiranui's Dreamscape Adventures)
      Here are some memorable dreams from the past week, excluding today. From today onward I will try to be more organized.



      Surprise visit.

      I was in my apartment. (I live in a flatshare with 3 other people.) Suddenly John shows up, I have seriously mixed feelings about seeing him. He has a friend with him too, but she just stays quiet and in the background. He says he is in a hurry, that he was just passing by and has to go. I follow him back to the train station.

      It's autumn out, really beautiful - red and orange leaves fall all around. There is snow on the ground. We walk in a weird sort of silence, i try to resist the urge to hug him and tell him how much i've missed him. I've tried to forget him for such a long time, i've repaired my life without him. He suddenly says he has missed me. I don't know if it's sincere. I feel so weird, I don't think I answered him. I try to muster up a feeling of aloofness and even hate, but I can't. Now when I see him everything just hurts.

      When we arrive at the station he climbs onto a metal fence-thingy, I lean against it next to him. The metal is really cold.
      "So," I say, starting up the awkward small-talk and avoiding anything and everything important with betrayal, addictions, life fracturing into tiny little pieces and exploding and whatnot. i don't care. Totally. Cool.
      "Where do you live now?"
      "King's street 14"
      (A real place in the city where we live.)
      "great that you moved out of that flatshare. It sounded naasty."
      He smiles. "Yeah."
      "But damn! That is like really central. How much is the rent?"
      "8400 crowns."
      "What?! Ohmygood. How do you manage?!"
      "Took a part-time job at mcdonalds."

      "Oh" I reply, "That's great ..."
      He mumbles something in agreement. The train arrives and we say goodbye.
      I don't hug him.

      While walking back to my house I try as hard as I can to just push him away in my mind. I think about how far i've come in rebuilding my life, and that I did it alone.



      (We have a quite complicated past, our relationship is pretty much ruined.)







      Planecrash!

      This is just a fragment. I'm on a plane that crashes, we jump out of the plane with a parachute just in time. I make some awkward smalltalk with the other passengers while we wait for the plane to be repaired. When we get on the second time, I don't get on quite in time and is forced to hang onto the plane with just one hand.




      Castle Adventure Time with secret rooms, maidens and executions. Oh my!


      I was in a castle, a real medieval one. A battle was raging outside. Both sides wanted a girl that had some mystical magic powers. Both sides knew she was hidden in the castle and was looking for her, her powers would be the key to winning the war.

      I was a young knight (male!) employed on the side that currently had control over the castle. Everybody was running around, both trying to fight off the other forces and searching for the girl. I had a feeling we had had control of the castle for at least a few weeks.

      And then ... I happened to stumble onto the secret room. You needed a missing wallbrick, which I found. I entered the room. A girl around 15-17 was there. She had long red hair and a dark green, really pretty dress. She started to cry. Poor thing was so scared, she had been hunted all her life for her powers which hurt when she used them + they dried her lifespan. I don't know what her powers were, but they were destructive and only used for war, while she was so harmless and fragile. It was like a curse, I felt so much compassion with her.

      Anyway, we became friends. Some time passed, I think. But somehow they figured out that I knew where she was. I fled the castle, but was caught by the opposing side.


      (Here the dream becomes really vivid.)

      I am staring up at the castlewall where my former allies are. While trying not to get the opposing side to kill me they sort of reveal that I know where the girl is. Those who have captured me refuse to hand me back (of course) since I possess this information.

      My former allies aim a bow at me.

      “Hand him back, or we will shoot.”

      This is really a batman gambit of them, trying to make them hand me back or the information dies with me. This is such a tense moment. Everybody holds their breath, not knowing how this will play out. If my capturers hand me back, they might get a shot at finding me later or retrieving the information somehow. But at the same time, they haven’t even breached the outer wall and they might be too late.

      I stand right under the wall in clear sight, no one will have time to protect me if they fire. I just stare straight ahead, listening to the whispers around me. Then I hear a bow getting “loaded” just a few inches to my right, the string being pulled. I understand that my fate has been sealed and my heart leaps.
      To my right I hear someone saying “kneel”.

      I kneel, staring down at the ground, my heart trying to beat its way out of my chest.
      Thoughts about how I die for a cause run through my head, I also feel weirdly turned on almost, reality really sharp and clear and I really think this is the last thing I’ll experience. I just wait and wait and wait for someone to fire an arrow.

      It’s never fired, the dream ends there.




      Short lucid.


      I am talking to Cornelia in our kitchen, when I realize she is shorter than me. This makes me instantly lucid. Wow, I just started getting interested in this again yesterday! This is going fast. Way too fast. I get scared, and wake myself up. I was just soooo surprised to be lucid dreaming that the dreamscape felt way to sudden and surreal. I wasn’t prepared.



      Another short lucid.


      The second time during the same night i got lucid. I don't remember what happened before this, or what triggered lucidity. I stabilized the dream by looking at my hands, the right one looked normal, the left one had one finger missing. I am in a sort of rocky area, just lots of rocks and stony grounds.

      A black dog suddenly shows up from behind a rock, we stare at eachother for a few seconds. it looks like a labrador, slightly larger than normal though. I think about how cool it is that the dog doesn't exist for real.

      It suddenly growls and looks like it's going to attack. I feel a spike of fear; pain is often really vivid in my dreams ... I try to wake myself up by closing and quickly opening my eyes. Doesn't work.

      I will myself to morph into a wolf. It doesn't quite work since the dog attacks before I am finished morphing. We jump around eachother, just me trying to avoid his attacks. A paw scratches my side, it isn't that sharp a pain and I feel a little calmer and not as afraid. I see an opening and lunge towards his throat, but as I bite down I don't get that strong a grip since i've forgotten to morph my mouth/nuzzle. I morph while biting, I get a much stronger grip and bite down. As I do, my vision gets all grey and fuzzy-static like, then the dream fades.
    5. 23/01/12 - Friday Lucids

      by , 01-23-2012 at 08:36 PM (Nom nom nom, Mmmattelicious...)
      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      Good morning! I've been very busy this weekend and haven't had time to write down my dreams. I had three lucids in a row last Friday and it's about time I write them down. This many days afterwards, my recall won't be the best, but I think I can remember most of it with the notes I have.

      07.30: Lucidity burst MILD
      I'm standing in a dim lit room filled with ragged people. The doomsday has come and we're all survivors. I'm an Asha'man from the series "Wheel of Time." My brother is in the room with us and he's got the power to channel aswell, but we're both exhausted from weeks of constant channeling to survive. My dad is also there. The door bursts open and two men comes in. They look really worn out and they've got dirt all over them. I recognise them as two from our home village. "You want some food?" I ask them. "Yes please" one of them says and I look in the cupboard. We've only got some hard bread left. I open the fridge and take out some different kinds of pizzas. "It's okay for them to have it?" I ask my dad. He nods and I let them choose one each. We don't have that much food left, and there's one hundred and twenty people in the room. I'm dead tired.

      The dream skips. I'm in a moving car. My mom's driving and my brother is next to me. The dream is on the same scenario as the dream before. I look out the window and focus on a dark spot in the clouds above a vast field. The spot starts to grow in size and get darker, just like in "Lord of the Rings." "Make sure we're behind that hedge!" I say to my mom. "But the car will get scratches if I do!" she complains. "It doesn't matter if we're all dead!" I look at the sky again and huge pterodactyl like birds are everywhere. They've all got riders on their backs and they're very close. We continue down the road and pray no one spots us. It doesn't seem like they do, or they just don't care. After a while we stop the car in the forest and get out. There's a small house there.


      I realise I'm dreaming. I start walking down a trail with my brother just behind me. The dream is way too dark for my liking. I fill myself with "the one power" and everything becomes more clear and vivid, but not very much brighter. I rub my hands to try to get some light going but soon the dream is fading.

      I lie completely still as I wake up and end up in SP quickly. I black out.

      I'm in the small house on a chair. My brother is infront of me and he's on the phone with his boss' wife. She's crying and my brother can't be bothered to listen so he hangs up. She calls him a minute later and he picks up. "Oh sorry something must have happened" he tells her. He finishes his conversation. "Is your boss dead or what?" I ask him. "No idea, but I've been fine after lying under the house plenty of times though." Martin gets up and walks outside. He holds his hands out towards the building and lifts the entire thing up with telekinesis. "Whoa!" I say and hold on. He gets on and we start flying away. The roof disappears and the entire thing turns into a car.

      I realise I'm dreaming. I look down and infront of us. A barn appears up ahead and Martin lands the car infront of it. There's a toilet booth infront of the barn and I know there's going to be some guns inside. I open the door and the toilet lid. It's full of plastic bags and I have to look for a while before I feel something that resembles a gun. I can hear people shouting in the barn. Martin pulls out an uzi and steps outside. I find a glock and an uzi, but only 12 mm bullets, not 9 mm which I need. "Hey Martin, do you have any 9 mm bullets?" I ask him. He starts shooting wildly on the barn. I hold a pipe of some sorts in my hands and rub it for some stability. I head outside and jump into the car. Martin throws me a box of ammo and I try to reload the guns as he steps on the gas and heads out of there.

      I wake up at work. I've got my blanket with me and it's night out. No one seems to be around as I step outside. I start walking. 'Wait, aren't I still dreaming? Oh yeah I am.' I walk around the construction site for a while, thinking about what I want to do. A weird sign appears infront of me. It's like two big white steam roller wheels spinning, filled with numbers. I stand still and watch the mysterious spinning sign.

    6. When Trees Attack (Nov 20, 2011)

      by , 11-21-2011 at 04:29 PM (Realm of Insanity)
      A group of five or six kids walk up to a trio of trees. I'm watching from the trees perspective. The kids get angry and bored that is nothing is happening and they leave. Suddenly the trees come to life and attack the kids. One of the trees has a drill hand which he uses to drill through one kid and while he tries to drill another kid who is hiding under a jeep, the car rolls down and bursts open her head. Once all the kids are dead except one who turns out to be the one that lead everyone to their death. The dream skips and I'm looking at a orange orb floating in the air. I think it is the eye of a dark lord.(I watched the second Lord of the Rings not too long ago.) There is a wizard beside me telling me all of this.

    7. Medival Lucid (Nov 18, 2011)

      by , 11-19-2011 at 06:11 PM (Realm of Insanity)
      I am at a medival festival. There are tents set up and apparently it is a school trip. We are leaving the festival and I drop my music player at the entrance. On the bus as we are driving my friend is in a convertible along the left side of the bus. She shows me my player and for some reason I motion her to throw it to me. Well it hits the window and bounces off into the street. Not long after someone on the bus needs to use the restroom so it pulls over tot he side of the road. While he is taking a bathroom break someone else runs off to go find my stuff. When he comes back he is holding something that is not mine. He tries to go back but i tell him not to worry about it. The dream skips ahead and the bus is now empty except for me and it is heading back to the event. It heads through a king aurthur high school and it crosses a tennis court while people are playing.. The dream skips ahead once more and it is night. Im no longer on a bus I am on stone wheels which are only a foot tall and are moving slower then I can walk. There are meany all over the place even some that are actually tires. I get up off the wheels and begin to walk. As I get closer to the event a large group of people made up of probably a hundred people dressed up in middle age clothes are heading toward me. An announcer says something about watching out for dragons and suddenly these people attack. This is where I became lucid. As the people get closer I try to set off a flame attack to take them all out at once but I fail. I then decide to escape. I tell myself to fly up and i do but very slowly. One of the people grab me in my left leg and makes it feel as though a knife is being plunged into it. Then the people begin making a chain each grabbing the one before them. They then slam me into the ground waking me up.

    8. Under Attack (Nov 11, 2011)

      by , 11-12-2011 at 11:58 PM (Realm of Insanity)
      In the village from before, a peaceful afternoon turns into hell. The main gate to the village is blasted down and an army dressed in red pours in. They set fire to some of the buildings and do not stop until they are met with our own resistance army. As the two forces are in battle I and someone else help put out the fires and rebuild the buildings. Then we head off to fight the battle.

    9. Creature Escort (Nov 11, 2011)

      by , 11-12-2011 at 11:48 PM (Realm of Insanity)
      Im on a hill overlooking a village. There is a waterfall behind us, the water roaring lound. Drawn down the hill is a dirt path to the village. With me is a sorceress and a creature I beleive I captured in my space dream. Our job is to transport it to the the designated spot in the village with no harm coming to the villagers. We begin our way down the path and as I learn the creature sometimes leaves lava in its footsteps. I go to clean them up and how I do so, I do not know. As we make our way further down a caravan parked to the side is attacked by the creature. I summon a lightning spell that hits the creature and causes him to back off. We make our way down with no further issues.

    10. Midnight Supernatural Fight(Nov 10, 2011)

      by , 11-12-2011 at 11:21 PM (Realm of Insanity)
      It is midnight, the full moon is shining bright overhead. I'm in a parking lot with eight or more cars in it. I'm walking backwards and searching cautiously so i'm obviously expecting something. Suddenly i'm grabbed by my neck and lifted up off the ground. My attacker appears on my left side and is facing away from me. As he turns his head towards me the second I see his black eyes I lash out with my right hand and knock his face away from me. He becomes furious and just as he is about to kill me someone new appears. I convince the demon holding me that he needs me to fight this new enemy. He beleives me and sets me down. The battle takes place on the field to the left of the parking lot and to the right of a shining magical lake. We were the winners.

    11. 18/09/11 - For king and country!

      by , 09-18-2011 at 09:52 AM (Nom nom nom, Mmmattelicious...)
      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      Good morning! Just woke up from yet another very long night's sleep. Had a bunch of dreams but I couldn't be bothered to write any of them down as I was aiming for a lucid. Didn't get it, but I did complete my class' task of having a long dream.

      23.00: Sleep

      09.15: Baby king in war and labyrinths
      I'm in a big town. The streets are cobbled and it feels pretty old. My friend G is nearby, and we've just finished building a big building. Further down the street, the dock begins. A big wall separates the town I'm in, from another one and apparently it's France. I'm in England. We all know they hate eachother. I look up at the sky and can see an airplane high up. I'm afraid it will drop bombs on us. I let out the breath I was holding as it passes us, but a few seconds later it starts dropping bombs.

      I realise they will all fall right on the building we just finished. We both run back a bit towards the dock. The bombs crash down into the building and explodes in a cascade of rubble and dust. When it all settles down, I head back. The wall of England, had a huge cannon pointing up towards the sky in the middle of it. It's lowered and points right at us. I'm afraid it will shoot us but I start to see big red and white sails inside of it. An entire armada of ships comes out of it and splashes down into the water below. People appear all around us and cheer.

      The fleet advances on the French and the people run down the dock with it. I run faster than most aristocrats and bump into a few of them, making a fat old man whine a bit. A gate in the wall opens and people comes out. We all start fighting, but I don't get a chance to do anything before some lady hands be a baby in a blanket. "Protect him!" she tells me and I swear I will. I realise it's the baby king. I head back with the baby in my arms. He starts crying but I make a funny sound that makes him laugh.

      Back at the English wall a bunch of people are waiting. One kneels and holds up a silver rapier with golden decorations on it. I take it and give it to the baby king. I help him raise it into the air and when he does, the crowd lets out a huge roar. Morale boost at its best! I take the sword and hand the baby to another person. A back door in the wall bursts open and a score of soldiers fight the people trying to come through back. The door shuts again and I walk up to it. I can see it bulge and open more and more every second. I hold up the rapier, ready to strike.

      The door cracks open just a little bit, but that's enough for me. I thrust into the crack and can feel resistance. The door opens up more and my sword is sticking out of a man's stomach. He looks surprised. I jerk the sword back and run towards the big gate on the wall. Another person follows me and shuts the door. Inside, I see a tiny little window by the floor. It's full of straw and wooden rods. I have to try to push through, so I get on my knees and squeeze myself into the little hole. Oh please let them not come through the gate now!

      I manage to go through and my companion follows quickly. This process is repeated like four times and it takes forever! At the last hole, my companion tells me some guy we both know, is just ahead of me. I look through the hole and can see someone disappearing just behind the corner. I squeeze through into a dark room full of pillars. I head to the left, trying to catch up with the guy, but I can't see anyone down the corridor. We run around for a while, through corridors and labyrinths. All of a sudden as I enter one, I can hear a voice. "Beware of not only the third dimension." What? I figure there must be monsters lurking in the 1st and 2nd aswell.

      What do they look like? Lines? I spot a picture of a monster on a pillar and I cut it with my rapier, nothing happens. We run out of the labyrinth and head up some stairs. At the top I see the guy we were after. "Hey!" I say and he gets scared shitless. He almost cuts me before he realises who I am. "Oh sorry" he says and we talk for a while. A big snake appears and I cut it down, once again the mystical voice speaks up. It says something about unreal things. I look behind us and spot another snake, only this one is made out of cloth. I hack its head off and stab it until I'm satisfied just in case.

    12. Directed Fantasy

      by , 07-26-2011 at 02:15 PM
      Due to a strange series of mini-sleeps, fueled by various proportions of caffeine and ethanol, dreams last night are loosely defined as guided imagery.

      I first imagined two guys named Jerry and Garcia, sitting at a card table smoking some cigars. Garcia commented how the smoke from their cigars was lingering, so Jerry whipped out a pistol and shot the glass out of the window, for some ventilation. Then a bird flew through the window with a long scroll from the King. It was too small to read, but fortunately the other side had the same message in Braille, in which Garcia was fluent. The King said his son was sad, and since he very much looked up to Jerry and Garcia as heroes, the King wished that they would visit and talk to his son. They consent.

      On the way up the King's mountain, they pass Milton, the eternal prisoner. He offers his thoughts for a penny. Garcia flips him a coin, and Milton explains that animals roam the land free, and sometimes animals even come from far away lands, but they continue to roam free, unlike Milton, who was discovered from a far away land and imprisoned for life. He continues to appeal to Jerry and Garcia but they turn away to meet the King.

      Once at the castle, they meet with tall, heavily armed guards, replete with red armor, helmets, strong lances, and boots. They only take one in at a time, leaving Jerry at the gate. Jerry, as if knowing the drill, runs along the castle wall, finds a place to scale, throws a guard off the tower, and sneaks towards the King's hall. There he finds Garcia on his knees in front of the King, about to be injected with a syringe. Jerry leverages his surprise attack to redirect the needle into the King's neck. The King bellows, and immediately begins to transform into an enormous dark beast with glowing eyes and crown. The guards scatter while Jerry and Garcia take cover from the King. While escaping, they ally with a guard, and find the chemical room, where this venom is being refined.

      THE END OF THAT ONE!

      The other one was based on a friendship of mine. As a "large enough evil" approached Earth, my dear friend Madeline discovered latent powers that resonated with the power of the evil, and woke up with the sense of a mission. She found she could read people's thoughts and future, and she was also gifted with fire. Using her foresight, she roamed the city to find a partner that would help tame this great evil -- she eventually discovers that a partnership with Chris, although not ending happily, would save the world. Her foresight shows that toward the end of their journey, Chris' attachment to her would be his own ruin. However, it is the closest hope.

      A few scenes of their partnership -- while battling tremendous evils, Chris discovers powers of metal, like those of Magneto. A scene shows us Madeline charging his great fiery powers, while Chris defends her with a great iron shield. As the behemoth attacks, infinite particles of iron come together at the point of his strike to defend Chris and Maddie from his rage. It also shows a blade of metal dart from the ground into Chris' hand, passing through their assailant's heart along the way. As it slips through, the beast drops lifeless.

      This sci-fi story was built with a plot twist, in which Chris evolves along the way, and is able to break his attachment to Madeline before the fateful event. Things become murky here -- Chris may have to destroy Maddie, but why her foresight would not prepare her for this, I know not!

      As for actual spontaneous dreams, I don't know -- I recall my cheap aviators being a little bent, and being embarrassed in front of a girl. Don't nobody mess with my cheap aviators!

      --- Oh! I remembered an actual dream! In Boone, my car didn't start, so I visited Bill's Garage. By this point I was becoming friendly with the guy who kept fixing my car, so I tried to make conversation about what was wrong with my car, and the guy smiled understandingly and said "we'll figure it out." I said out loud that yes, I was probably too tired to understand it now. In my living room, meanwhile, was Cameron or Will Franke or both, something about guitars, blah....

    13. Life as a hunted dragon

      by , 07-24-2011 at 11:49 AM
      The dream started some time in the past, showing a time where certain people were actually dragons. They were humanoid but had dragon-like appearances and could transform into a true dragon form at will.

      This section was set up like a prologue of a book, and was set near a the base and inside of a cave system. The cave itself was very rugged, and rocks jutted out at various points of the exterior going up to a flat top, that connected to a winding pathway inside that had lava on either side. Most of the dragons were gathered near the base of this cave system, preparing for a huge battle. I was one of them, and I was excited to be about to join the battle. Without them saying anything, I knew we were going to go up against an army of regular people who were ordered to slay all the dragons by their evil king. (I watch a lot of fantasy).

      Before I could join them, however, my mom and someone else, who was either a close friend or my dream brother, who were both normal people, told me not to go. I was disappointing, but I listened, and didn't enter the cave system with the other dragons.

      It turned out to be a good thing, because when I looked in the caves after time had past, there were no dragons alive anymore. They had been killed by the humans.

      The dream skipped later in time at that point, where the king had issued a law that anyone who protected dragons could be arrested, and for all dragons to be killed. I was one of the only surviving dragons left alive, and had been hiding my identity along with my mom and (i think) brother, who were both normal. My life had been a struggle to prevent people from knowing the truth about me, which has starting to get harder and harder, as my powers grew.

      The first thing that had started to develop was snake-like eyes. They could be controlled, and made to look like human eyes, but as a grew more dragon-like this was getting harder. My family had house hopped for a few months, avoiding procedural searches for dragons in each town or city. Unfortunately, one time, we were to late in moving, and a guard had come to check if we were dragons. My mom got checked just fine, and my brother was getting checked just fine, but while they were checking him, my powers started to grow, partly due to nervousness, and partly because they were bubbling under the surface wanting to be used for some time.

      Unlike normal dragons you see in fantasy, my kind of dragons, had powers in human form and dragon form that were unlike simple flying and fire breath. I could control the wind, had psychic powers, and more that I can't remember. (I'm going to try to use various methods to get back into this universe and find out what else I could do, it was so awesome).

      Without my even realizing how stupid it was, I started to test these powers, and made a burst of wind blow over a nearby patch of grass. I could feel the wind from behind me blow over to the grass and make the grass bend and quiver. The wind also made the grass pulse with varying levels of light and shadow from moving up and down. As the wind subsided the guard noticed me doing it, and grew suspicious.

      He said he said he would have to do a full body search, (like in airport security), and I knew if I let him he would probably realize I was a dragon. Now not sure what to do I looked at my mom, who seemed to say to try and fake it. I looked at the guard and realized, all I needed to do was stare at this man, and his mind would be mine to destroy. I didn't need to let this man search me, I could kill him in my sleep if I wanted to (pun intended). A this point the dream ended while I was deciding weather or not to kill him.

      When I woke up, I used A LD induction technique I read about, and modified it to fit for the purpose of entering the dream and becoming lucid in it. Not MILD actually, it was in the thread of "Silverbullet's possible key to lucid dreaming". Silverbullet showed four youtube videos that really helped. Everyone should watch them.

      While I did not become lucid, I did re-enter the dream. WOOT! The dream had skipped later though, and it was me, my mom, and my brother buying supplies at a town that stood before a huge pine woods with scattered mountains. We had realized that living in towns and cities would not be possible anymore, and we were heading to a remote location to perfect my skills so I could defend myself.

      After we had gotten the supplies we found an empty area outside the city, where I transformed into my dragon form, and they put the goods in a sort of saddle bag, got on my back, and we took of scouting for a spot to train. We found a spot in the mountains away from people and the chance of forest fires, and got to training.

      Sadly, I woke up at this point and never got to experience the training. But i'm hopeful that i'll visit this universe again someday. I have so many questions like: what's the name of the land, what powers do I have as a dragon, do I ever defeat the evil king, do I meet other dragons, do dragons ever walk in this universe normally again.

      Now I sound like it's a bad movie or something. But I do want to get back to this universe again, if only to experience being a dragon again.

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID NIGHTLY ADVENTURE

      Good morning! Had a couple of actually pretty awesome dreams last night, but I'm so pissed that I didn't write down or couldn't recall more of a lucid I know I had early on in the night. Might have been so early in the night that the REM period ended. Anyways I was also up and had a bit of an adventure.

      01.30: Sleep

      02.15: Nightly Adventure
      *I wake up and jump out of bed. I grab a pillow and hold it up against the headrest of my computer chair. Phew! I blocked the path of the shots before they were fired. I stand there and hold the pillow firmly against the headrest so it won't shoot Monica who's sleeping.

      07.30: Fragments
      *I'm lucid. I'm with a few other people and I show them my telekinetic powers. I grab a steel beam of some sorts and throw it over my head. My dad smiles at me. I grab the beam again and a small, black ball. I throw them around simultaneously in different directions. Multitasking!

      *I'm talking to a doctor, and for some reason I'm speaking english. I try to tell him that I need someone to look me up. I tell him about my nightly adventures, how I have hallucinations almost every night and I haven't found out why yet. I say that I'm a Dream Guide and very educated when it comes to dreams and such, but I haven't met or read about anyone who also has them.

      07.30: WBTB 10 minutes

      9.30: Chased by monsters
      I'm inside of a big skyscraper. A huge monster is attacking the building, and I open a wooden door and close it. It won't shut properly so I have to try three times before it shuts. I can feel the world change. I open the door and look out. I have teleported to a nearby place on the ground. I can see the enormous monster destroying the building from outside. The building itself is huge, as tall as a skyscraper but just as long. The monster looks something like this.



      On a walkie-talkie I can hear my coworker yell as I watch the monster jerk and jump into the huge hole it has made. With insane speed it crashes through the building, spraying debris in all directions. The last thing I hear from my coworker is a scream. The monster pops out on the other side of the building and I decide to get its attention. I whistle as loud as I can. The monster twiches its head and looks me straight in the eye. I know how fast this thing is so I close the door quickly.

      Three times to teleport. I open it slightly after the first time and can see the monster outside of the door already. Oh shit I won't make it! I close it and can feel the monster trying to prevent me. I open and close it a third time and teleport away. I lean against the wall and open the door again. I know the monster will have morphed into something less harmful. A small girl appears and looks into the small room I'm in. I grab her arm and drag her into the room and teleport away. I end up on a muddy field, on a sign it says: "Woodstock". I push the girl out the door and teleport away again.


      The dream skips. I'm now watching different coworkers, how their days started. I want to find out who's responsible for the monster incident. One guy seems to be harmless, but another one has a strange feel to him. They're Asian for some reason. I go into 1st person mode and I'm in some kind of slum area, near where the teleport ended up the first time. I can see the big building nearby. I immediately run down into the basement, there's something dangerous coming for me. Down at the sewers, a man is lying half-buried in the sand.

      He looks very frail, and there's barely skin left on his bones. Two small boys are with him and they appear to be his grandsons. I look behind me at a green door, knowing something bad will come for us any second. "We have to go!" I tell them. I look behind me again and all of a sudden some watery liquid starts seeping through the cracks of the door. The boys picks up their grandpa and we start running. I get some liquid on my feet, it feels like oil.

      We run through a maze for a while until we arrive at an arena of some sorts. Grandpa has been forgotten and me and the two kids jump over stacks of rubble and crates to go as high as possible. I see a path above the ground on some construction beams. For some reason we're not going to run anymore, but face whatever's coming. We start building traps with concrete steel on the only walkway there is.

      A very big guy in black armor appears.



      He starts walking on the pathway and we all release the concrete steel we've tightened. They smack him on his legs, doing absolutely nothing at all. He starts laughing at our futile attempts to stop him. I'm holding a couple of soft spears which has green feathers on them. I throw them at his face, aiming for his red glowing eyes. He starts laughing even more and reaches for me with a huge hand. All of a sudden he cries out in pain, a spear jutting out from his eye.

      He goes down on one knee, clutching his face. I take the rest of the spears we've got nearby and hand half of them to the boy next to me. "Throw these in his remaining eye when he comes at us" I tell him. One or two must hit, we've got like twenty spears each. With a roar the man reaches for us and we throw as many spears as we can, I start stabbing him when he's close enough but nothing happens. He grabs me and holds me tight.

      I wriggle loose and start clawing and punching him in the face. Again the man laughs at me. Once again he grabs me and holds me tight, I'm screwed this time. The third boy who had been completely forgotten had apparently been preparing some ultimate attack. I watch him as he loads up some crazy gun that emits some futuristic sound. I say his name and the man turns around and gets a full on blast in his face.

      I'm dropped to the ground, but the big arm holding my ankle is still squeezing it hard. It hurts alot and I scream in pain. After a while the hand lets go and I breathe out. I try to move my wrist (for some reason my wrist got hurt) and it feels like I can't move it properly. When I turn it, it sounds mechanic, like I've got a prosthetic. "You can do surgery on your wrists now" one of the boys tell me. Like I'm giving an OK to do it finally after all this time.


      09.30: Wake up

      Amount of sleep: 7½ hours

      Supplements: None


      That's it! What an epic and long dream. Too bad I didn't get lucid when I was in it, that evil guy would have been obliterated.

      Keep on dreaming, HARE BRA!

      Last night I was a sort of vigilante private investigator that could shift between states of reality (ie, there was reality, then there was this second state where things in that state were semi transparent and could only interact with objects/people in the same state. When I was in that state I could also cause other objects/people to shift into that state as well). My partner (who has the same shifting skill) and I were in an early 1900s city trying to figure out who ruined a certain scientist's groundbreaking medical research. His lab (on the 9th floor of a 12-story building) had been totally burned and the fire had severely damaged the surrounding floors. My first place I checked out was the building itself.

      The dream actually started when I went in with a team of four other investigators. Turns out there were a bunch of assassins or something trying to torch the rest of the building, and they would stop the elevator at every floor as and we'd have to get out and fight them hand-to-hand. It was intense. At one point these assassins started using Halo-style plasma swords. That was one heck of a fight. It was crazy vivid.

      Once my team and I made it to the scientist's floor, we discovered there wasn't much to see. The floor had collapsed, and the floors above and below it were so badly burned we were afraid the rest of the building would come down, so we left.

      The dream became somewhat disconnected after that, and I just remember me and my partner checking out potential suspects at dinner parties in fancy hotel lobbies and walking through some underground walkway (kind of like a subway) discussing the case. We would use our shifting abilities to hide inside walls and listen in on conversations, get inside locked rooms, tail suspects, etc.

      The dream returned to maximum realism for the climax. My partner and I, having made only disconnected discoveries, were in a small auditorium watching this scientist and his assistants give their much-delayed presentation on his groundbreaking discovery. Halfway through the presentation, I noticed my partner was quite uneasy. I had asked the scientist a question, and he had kind of freaked out when he saw my partner. At this point, the scientist totally lost it, started throwing things at my partner, and the clues assembled themselves and I realized my partner had committed the crime. Right then and there he tried to pull a knife. I ran, and at the doors one of his minions burst through and tried to kill me. A second guy locked the door behind him. I actually remember blocking the attack, then grabbing him around the neck from behind and stabbing him in the gut out of desperation with a pen lying close by on a table.

      While my partner and I had been successful at hiding our shifting ability from others up to that point, I was forced to shift into the alternate state and escape by running right through the locked door. My partner shifted as well and tried to follow, but I shifted the door and he smashed into it totally cartoon style. From then I only remember sprinting down the stairs and bursting out into the street. Night had fallen. Police were coming.

      Then I woke up all like "duuuuuude."
