Hello :/ Yesterday, I had such an unrealistic dream, that I ask myself why I didn't see that it was an dream

Well the dream starts very logical: I'm walking through a forest. Everything is so peaceful and quite. A few birds are twittering and all this stuff.
But suddenly, out of nowhere, I have a bag with a football (soccer) a towel and stuff to take a sunbath on the beach. In one hand I have an parasol, in the other hand a surfboard. Apparently I'm going to sunbath on a beach... My parents and my brother show up, we all are going together on the beach. I'm wondering why we go through a forest, when we go to the sea? I try to remember how I got there. I'm wondering why I'm not so exhausted, when we just arrived on the beach? (for information, we go to France in our holidays and we have to drive 10 hours or so in the car). I want to develop my thoughts but something unexpected happens.
Suddenly a bird sh*ts on me! It's disgusting! But it just wasn't one bird, but ten birds were making it! I have the feeling that I'm sort of target. I try to avoid the sh*t but I fail every time! Finally I'm out of this f***ing forest. (I don't want to describe the feeling of having bird-poop running down my shoulders an my neck) In front of us is the sea, but it's so different from reality: it reminds me of the lac I used to go swimming this summer). In Addition, there were everywhere seaweed. A woman was swimming in it and it looked really disgusting. I just couldn't stop thinking of all these disgusting things and didn't realize that it's a dream.
The scenario changes. I'm wearing the same clothes as previously, the poop hasn't gone. But now I'm in a sort of garage. An old man is working on a car. It turns out that's my grand-uncle from Illinois, although he doesn't look like him. He speaks but I don't understand what he's saying. I have the feeling that I have to help to repair his car. He wants to know, what happened to me, that my t-shirt is so smelly and disgusting. I explain to him the episode with the birds. He believes me and he want to take a close look on my T-shirt. I take it off an suddenly I'm standing in a white room. It's a consultation room and a doctor is there. He says: Yes, there's no doubt it's bird-shit!
He gives me a ticket and I open the door to leave. I'm suddenly at a train station. My brother is there and he he's smoking a cigarette (by the way, he's 11). My parents show up and shout at him, because he's smoking. "It's unacceptable!" says my dad. He puts it out and they leave.
I'm alone now, I'm really nervous, look if my parents aren't there and I take a cigarette-box out of my pocket and take a cigarette. (as non-smoker) I think: " Yeah he's to little to smoke, but I'm the master of my own decision" (very ironic). I put it in my mouth but I have no lighter. I want to ask someone for a light, but there's no smoker. I suddenly realize that I've got some matches in my pocket. I take them out and it turns out that they are matches to put the BBQ on. I wonder how I have to use it. I find in my pockets some kind of chewing-gum, that burns by friction I manage to light the match, without burning my-self. But I don't manage to light it. So I put the match out and throw it on the rails and put the cigarette out of my mouth. It has transformed into a cokkie (aha sure) and I eat it.
I walk down the station and meet a friend. He takes my ticket and we arrive in a room, where a lot of seats are. It's some kind of plane, the people who are there are excited to take off. I sit down next to another friend, who gives me popcorn.

I awake HOLY CRAP! WHY didn't I realize that this was a dream? ARRRRRRRRRR

Hello I had a few very vivid dreams, was really near to get lucid and I remember them surprisingly good. I now go to bed at a different time to get more sleep: I have to wake up at 5:40 am, so I went at 9:30 pm to bed to fall asleep around 10 pm. And today I don't feel so dizzy as yesterday

1. I'm in my bedroom and I here noise downstairs. So I hurry to go downstairs to look what's going on. So I don't really pay attention how everything looks like. In one second I'm downstairs and I see that my parents bring a lot of boxes into the house. I help them a bit. By the way the boxes are heavy.
After a minute or two I'm suddenly in a different room (it looks like the attic of the old house I lived when I was a kid). My mum says to me that there is a letter for me from a publisher: it's an answer that I'm waiting for ages. So I get really excited, I already can imagine how the letter looks like. But she says to me that the letter isn't here, but in the neighbour-town She says to me that I have to hurry to get it before noon (no idea why) I open the door and suddenly I'm outsides in my home-town. I don't pay attention how I got there, because I just couldn't stop thinking of the letter!
I begin to run, for one second I asked me if I'm dreaming, look around me a bit but everything looked like normal. I wanted to look at my watch, but I'm not wearing it. "Great, I forgot it in the hurry", was my thought. So I said to me that everything was normal. Exact in the same time, I saw a friend. He was also running and he was running next to me. I didn't perform a RC, because I did it a second before
I said:"Oh hello Micheal", how are you doing?"
- "I'm so ill!", said he and coughed really loud. "but I have to continue to jog, 'cause I have to loose weight"
- "O really?"
- "Yeah it's true"
Awkward silence. I feell that it is really chilly outsides and look down at my feet. I don't wear shoes, nor socks.
"WTF" was my first thought, but didn't developed my thinking into "OMG I'm dreaming!"; Instaed I said too him:
- I guess that I too will catch cold! So you don't have to feel so lonely with your cold!
I looked down to his feet. He was bare food too
I don't see these oddities... -.- So I kept on running
Suddenly, I see that I'm really fast, I have the feeling that I even don't touch the ground while running.

2. I'm in a bus. I don't remember the letter nor anything what happened previously... A few girls are sitting in front of me. They are talking about handbags Their conversation was like this:
- I bought me a new hand-bag, didn't you notice it?
- Yeah it's awesome! How much did you pay?
- Well, last time I just spend 300 Yengins (I don't have a freaking idea what kind of money this is)...
- But what about this time?
-... EEh it was one and a half Yengins
- OMG, that's expensive!
(Yes 1.5 is more than 300 )

I awake an hear an alarm clock. I'm not realizing it directly, but than I thought I was late. I looked at my alarmclock: it was 4:45 am. That's not the time I have to wake up. I do a RC (nose plug) I'm not dreaming. WTF, what's going on. I look around me: it's dark. I look again on the clock: 4:45am. The alarm went off.
It was another alarm clock of my watch, that I set up in August to wake me up to WBTB+WILD, but it never woke me up
So scribbled down some notes. I noticed that my mind was clear, but my body was really hard to move. So I tried WILD. I kept on thinking mind awake, body asleep. After a few minutes, I was in N1: i saw colours, monochromatic, I felt also the "tetris effect" (I felt the movements of a driving bus, 'cause I spent 3hours in a bus through the day), Suddenly I heared waves of bizarre sound, I've got a buzzing sensation. It wasn't really SP, because I could still move a finger or toe, without loosing the sensation. But after 5 minutes or so it simply stopped and I felt really awake. My attempt didn't worked. I did another RC, it turn out I was still awake. So I just fall to sleep normally.

3. I'm in a car. My friend drives it. The radio was static, and didn't work. SO I pushed a few buttons to fix the problem, but it doesn't work. Suddenly I hear a loud noise and I awake.

It's my alarm clock, but now it's time to get up defenitly (after doing RC)

The end

Hello I just can't stop laughing. Yesterday, after partying around with my friends (which I unfortunately don't see often enough) I had a few dream fragments which again seemed so real, that I didn't realized that it were just dreams

1. I'm with my friends in my favourite pub (although that night I wasn't there). I fell really drunk, like it was reality: Everything spun a bit, I had trouble to stand etc. Although I was drunk, I saw every single detail, I remember that all lights were on, it was so bright and clear, just like a film in HD. I stand next to the bar and listen to what my friends are saying. Suddenly the barkeeper gives me a beer. I'm confused, because I didn't order anything. Or least I didn't remember. The barkeeper wanted that I pay my beer, because he knew that I ordered it. And instead of arguing with the barkeeper, I took my purse and tried to grab a few €. But I lose a few of them and they end up lying on the ground. I stand up, I feel really dizzy, I concentrate to not fall and finally pick them up.
2. Suddenly I'm on the back seat of my own car. A friend of mine drives my car, another friend sits in the passenger seat. I don't know how I got there but I thought that I just fall asleep for a few minutes. (haha false awakening). My friends are trying my CD's. They complained that my music is creepy, but I didn't listen at them and started singing a few lines. So they changed at least 5 times the CD's. They stopped at one song: Baby when the lights (David Guetta). They complained that it is such a crappy song. But they don't change the song and start making fun of it. Suddenly, there are screens everywhere who show the videoclip of this song. The song changes and doesn't go like the original song. I'm a bit confused of it.

I awake and it's 4 am. I do a RC, I'm definitely not dreaming and fall asleep again.

3. I'm in a bar. There aren't my friends any more but my mum is there I'm really confused. She orders something to drink: I get a soda and she a beer I don't know what to say. I take my soda and she disappears. The barkeeper comes towards me, my soda has gone and he gives me a towel. I have to clean the bar. I have to give him all the empty glasses, but I never give him those which he wanted. I don't know what happens after: I can just remember that there were tickets for a plane or a train....

4. Another fragment (I just scribbled down a few words) which I don't remember involves an elevator and a reception.

Well that's pretty much of it.

Good morning
Yesterday, I had the most vivid dreams I ever had Everything seemed so real, although the things I experienced were so illogic. In addition I nearly got lucid during my last dream but something woke me up

1. I'm checking my mails on my laptop and see that I've got an answer to my request for practical training (for those who don't know, I'm studying Education to become a teacher). The message says that they noticed my request, but unfortunately the school I wanted to go had no place for a student (apparently all the free places were already distributed). That's why they offered me another place at another school. I was a bit sad about it, but I saw that my new place is just down the road where in reality an industrial zone is
Suddenly, I'm outsides on a hill so I can see my place. I saw something very illogical: the industrial zone had gone, there was a huge lake and in the middle of a it an island. This island reminded me of a Siberian one: big mountains, ice, snow etc. I just thought: "OMG, this isn't a school but a Gulag! How can I learn to teach children on such a lonely place". Suddently I began to fly, I see the island under me, I see a bunch of walruses. It's very cold and it begins to snow.

I awake, it's 2 am. I do a RC, shows me that I'm awake, scribble down some notes and immediately fall back to sleep.

2. I'm in a tunnel. There are a few policemen an a DC. I have to go to the toilet. So I wanted to ask a policeman were the bathroom is But I forget about it, because as soon as I walked towards the policeman, he asked me a few questions. Apparently, I'm a witness of an terrible car-accident, in which a rocket-propulsive-car is involved. The DC, who is the owner of this futuristic car claims that he didn't do anything. He claims that he didn't drive with an excess of speed. That's why the policeman asked me questions about the accident. I try to remember.
Suddenly I'm standing in a field, which is located near my home-town on a hill. I'm waiting for a bus (and there isn't a bus-stop). I see a car which drives at 150km/h. It doesn't take the road but short cuts over a field, so that it doesn't has to slow down to take a curve

3. I'm in my bedroom, and turn my laptop off. Again, I have to go to the bathroom xD. But I open the door and I'm outsides. It's a beautiful day, it's hot and the sun is shining. I'm in front of a house. The house looks like the one in the night of 9/20. There is a fence and a woman writes with white colour a telephone number on it. The house is going to be sold. After finishing her "paintings" she takes a shovel and digs around the house. I take a look on my watch, it's 2:45 pm. The woman says to me that I have to help her. I take again a look on my watch, it's 3:05.
"I've got to go I'm sorry" is my answer. "I have to take the bus" xD
The woman gets a bit angry and says, that I'm looking for an excuse But I ignore her and go away.
Suddenly I'm in my house. I'm in a hurry because I know that I have a ticket for an exclusive Klaxons concert. I'm excited, my bus comes in a few minutes. I put on my sandals. I get a bit confused. Why am I putting on sandals? I take a look how I'm dressed. I wear a awful shirt. "I can go to a concert when I'm dressed like this!", was my first thought. I'm getting very distrustful and I'm asking myself where the concert takes place. I can't remember. I can't even remember what I've done previously. I want to perform a RC

AND than I woke up E
ARRRRR I was soooooooo close

So after a short break with my Rizzoli and Isles dreams, and most dreams for that matter, I finally had another one. I guess the 9 hours of watching the show helped.

Six Months passed in the flash of an eye.

I was in a Tibetan monastery. I had spent the last six months cut off from everyone, learning their ways, their fighting style, and even how to control myself. I was ready to go home. I hadn't hardly spoken to anyone, they were a quiet bunch. I was meditating, before I left. One last time in the gardens I had told myself. I sat listening, moving through time like I had been taught. It was then that I entered the vision.

I watched as Maura walked down the street. It was dark out and she had a brown coat on. I saw someone jump her from behind and shoot her in the side.

I was disturbed by this, but kept trying to hold onto it. It faded and I stood up. I knew it was time to leave. The head monk smiled at me and we bowed to each other. I turned to leave, "Before you go, we need you to take this staff." I turned back around. He was holding a golden staff. "It will protect you, and with it you can defeat death itself. Go in peace young one." He handed me the staff and turned around. I headed home.

-Rizzoli POV-

"So, Allison is coming back. Are you excited?" Maura asked Jane. "Or course I am." "You know," Maura looked down at her hands, "I have been wondering, have you guys had sex yet?"

Jane almost choked on her beer. "No." "Well, why not?" Maura tilted her head. "Well when we first met she had been raped I wanted to give her some space." "And after that?" Maura seemed a little to curious. "Well after that... well... she's gone a lot."

"Do you want to?" "Okay Maura, what's going on?" "Well you seem hesitant to, so I was just wondering." "Yes I want to... I just want to let her decide when that is."

-My POV-

Sometime later.

I stepped into the precinct with out much of a word. I had learned to stay soft spoken. I didn't seem like I was the same. It was Maura who had seen me first. I smiled at her. "Hey Allison!" she shouted. She ran over and gave me a hug. My skin was nice shade of tan and I had lost quite a bit of weight. The weight I lost was all fat, and now I was very muscular. Jane stood up. "Wow, you look..." she didn't know what to say. I smiled at her.

"Oh, I have gifts." I took out the gifts from my bag. I gave Korsak a trinket, Frost some a mini Buddha, and Maura I gave a dress. "Allison, this is a 5,000 dollar dress." "I know," I looked over to Jane. I smiled and leaned in close to her. "I have a surprise for you at home." She smiled at me.

I went home. (Stuff happened that I want to keep to myself )

Again... here we are.

Part Eight

I was on my plane flying home. I was in a rush and I had to tell the department what had happened. I don't know when I landed in Boston, or when I got to the PD, but I remember walking in as if I owned the place. "Allison what are you doing here?" I heard Maura ask. "Aren't you supposed to be in China?" I looked over at her. "Hey, Jane's not in yet. I don't know where she is... this is unusual for her." Korsak looked at me as he spoke those words. "I know. She's not coming in today. Hey Frost, can you help hook me up the the projector?"

Frost did as I asked and soon I was showing them the video. "This was taken three days ago. I have tried making contact with each of you since, but to no avail. I figured the least I could do was come down and show you myself." Maura looked horrified. "God, all this time I thought Jane was just busy catching up with you. And sleep." "Well whoever they are... we should expect a ransom..." Before Korsak could finish a chime came, indicating I had a new email.

"We have her. Don't play games. $1,000,000 USD." There was also a website and a location for drop off. I quickly loaded the website and there was Jane. They had set up cameras and we were watching her. The screen went dark and a button appeared that said 'Press to see Jane'. I don't know which one of us pressed it, but a blinding light came on and Jane became very startled. "I can get the money."

-Note: Lost time...-

I was standing with a gun to a guys back. "You give me the girl and the money, and let's say I don't blow your head off." He set the suitcase of money down and motioned for his men to give up Jane. "Now go before I change my mind and shoot you anyway." He took off to his van, slamming the door shut and squealing out of the warehouse. I walked over to Jane and unbound her wrists. She pulled the gag out of her mouth and removed the blindfold from her eyes. She looked at me and I went to hug her.

I was surprised when her hand made contact with my face. "What the hell?" was all I could ask. "What do you think you were doing? You could have been killed? Did you know if they even had weapons? Have you ever fired a gun before?" She shot her questions out at me before I could regain my bearings. "I was thinking about rescuing you.. maybe that was a bad idea. I know I could have been killed. I was hoping that they didn't have weapons, and I love to go shooting."

She looked at me, both pain and passion in her eyes. "That still doesn't give you the right to come in and.. and.. God." She screamed at me. "I'm sorry, what gives you the right to dictate what I do with my money and if I can come and save you." "They used me Allison. Do you know what that feels like?" We were screaming at each other. She was obviously pissed at something I did. Pretty soon she was screaming about the fact that she hadn't had this many problems since she met me, and that maybe she should leave. "Fine if you want to go, go. It's not like I am holding a gun to your head saying that you need to..." "GUYS!" I heard Maura shout into my ear. I paused my yelling.

"You are still live." I shut my eyes and sighed. I pulled the wire out of my shirt and slammed it onto a table. "You were wearing a wire?" Jane asked. "Who all heard that?" She got close to me. I thought she was going to push me. "Maura, that's all." I still wanted to hug and kiss Jane, tell her that everything was okay, but at the same time I was still very angry. "If you are leaving, then leave. I have a plane to catch. Back to China. And a deal to finish. I expect to start working on the project soon, so that means I will be gone for at least three months." I picked up the suitcase and walked outside.

-Note: More lost time...-

I was sitting on my private jet waiting to go back to China. Jane had not called me or even spoken to be for the last couple of days. I had to get her off my mind and get back to work. A song came on, Godsmack's "What If." I listened to it and realized I couldn't be with out her, so decided to go to the PD and tell her.

Meanwhile... *Jane POV*

"I don't know Maura. I can't just do that." Jane was saying. "Jane, I have never seen you happier in the entire time I have known you. Trust me." "Maybe you're right..." "Right about what?" Korsak asked. "Right about being in love with Allison." Maura told him. Jane sighed. She had no clue that I was leaving that day. "Jane, if you think you even might love her, you need to tell her. Stop being so stubborn." "Fine, fine. I'll call her."

My son answered the phone and told Jane that I was flying out, back to China. Korsak offered to drive her to the airport.

*Back to me...*

I was riding a motorcycle I had just bought way too fast, and way to dangerously. I was risking my life, my being, maybe my soul to get to Jane and tell her how I felt. I could not afford to lose another love of my life. I nearly ran into the side of the PD skidding my bike to a stop. I shut off the engine and ran into the building. No one was at their desk, so I hoped that they were in Maura's lab. I ran down the stairs and hall, bursting the door open. "Where's Jane?" I asked, slightly out of breath. Startled both Maura and Frost turned around. "She went to the airport..." Frost started. "To look for you. Allison what are you doing here?" Maura asked me.

"I need to tell Jane I love her."

*Jane's POV*

They had to arrived in excellent time, but also in poor timing. Jane asked the manager at the nearest office if my plane had taken off yet. He told her no and directed her on where to go. She sprinted down the terminal and hurried outside to see my plane taking off. "Hey Jane, its okay don't worry. She said she'd be back. Give her some time." "No Korsak. I don't think she'll come back to me."

*My POV*

Maura, Frost and myself sat near Jane's desk waiting for her to come back. I was a bit antsy. Jane and Korsak walked through the doors and I stood up. I wanted to run to her, but I didn't know how she would react. "She's gone Maura," Jane said. I had kept myself well hidden. "Jane, I think that..." "No Maura, its over with her. Damnit, I can't believe I let her get away." "You didn't," I said as I stepped out. "What?" I pulled her into a deep kiss. At about the same time her parents walked through the door.

"See Angela, I told you she was gay. You never believe me anymore." Jane broke off her the kiss, a flash of sadness washed over her face. I held her hand tightly. She turned around to face them. I had been there before and I knew it was going to be hard. "Mom," she started. "Janie, you don't need to explain anything to me," her mom said. Her dad looked right at her. I thought he was going to disown her. Then he looked past her at me. "I swear, if you break her heart, I'm going to kill you." "Dad, come on! You can't say something like that in a police station." "Oh come on Jane," Korsak said, "I'd help him."

"What?" Jane said. I could see nods and hear agreements from other people. Maura just smiled at me. "I'm sure you'll be okay. I can tell you care very much about her." She gave me a tight hug.

-Okay, so this is where the Rizzoli Files currently end. They have occurred over several nights, and I hope that they continue. I also hope that you have enjoyed reading them, as I have enjoyed dreaming them. It would be a great dishonor to my dreamscape if they were to end here, so wish me luck in dreaming more of Jane Rizzoli and the Rizzoli and Isles team.-

So here it continues...

Part Six

I couldn't tell you how much time had passed. Not exactly. I just knew that I was up and walking around. True it was with the help of crutches, but hey, at least I was moving. It had been hard not to run in the race that both Jane and Maura were running in, but a week in the hospital, and a severely damaged leg had kept me busy. Between therapy three times a week, and the longer hours I was putting in at the office, I was not even going to make it to cheer them on.

I was surprised when I received a phone call from Maura late in the afternoon. My mind wondered if they had already finished the race. "So, get good times?" I asked her. "No actually. There were two murders and we wont be finishing until late tonight. I won't tell Jane if you come down here." I replied that I would see what I could do. 'Man, it must have been one hell of a race.' I thought to myself.

It wasn't to long before I found myself standing, mostly, slightly away from Jane's mother and father. I watched as both Jane and Maura ran up and crossed what appeared to be police tape. The two of them cheered and hugged each other. I whistled and clapped my hands together, making sure I was steady on my feet. All of them looked over to me. Jane ran over and I rebalanced myself. She rubbed my torso in an intimate action. :Hey, I thought you couldn't make it." "Hey," I wanted to kiss her. "I thought it would be day when you finished." She flashed a smile at me.

-Note: Maura's POV.-

"Who is that?" Jane's mom asked. "That's our friend, Allison." Maura replied. "Oh, that gay chick that Jane saved?" Jane's dad asked. "Well I wouldn't say she saved her, but she did find Allison's rapist." Maura explained. "Well I don't like her." "That's not a nice thing to say Frank." Jane's mom started in.

"Is Jane dating her?" he asked Maura. "I really should walk around, I don't want to get cramps." Maura excused herself from the situation.

-Note: My POV.-

Jane was close to me. She whispered something in my ear and I laughed a little. I hobbled over to where her parents were. "Look, you guys must be tired. Why don't we go out to dinner. I'll pay." I asked. They agreed and I grabbed my cell phone. "Bring the car around." A limo came to pick us up. We then went to a restaurant and ate some food, talked a little. The entire time I felt like I was being scrutinized by the father. I paid the bill like I said I would and dropped Jane's mother and father off at their house. I told my driver that he should also take Dr. Isles home. I asked Jane where she wanted to go. "I want to go home," she said.

We headed toward Maura's house, but before we could reach there both her and Jane had fallen asleep. Maura had fallen asleep on the chair, and Jane on my shoulder. I brushed a hair out of her face and she reached up and cuddled with me. I was in heaven.

Part Seven

I was in China. A meeting in China to be exact. My leg had mostly healed, Jane and I had been dating for a little while. I made her a care package before I left. Set her up with a web cam so that we could talk while I was on the other side of the world from her. The metting we going well. I had asked the Chinese government for permission to take photos of Hong Kong for a game we wanted to make. They told me anywhere but Hong Kong. Though it was odd I agreed to the terms and they stepped out of the room to discuss the rest of the details.

My computer chirped. I walked over to it. A small notification told me it was Jane.

Note: For some strange reason I became lucid..."

I was going to say hi when I heard her scream. I stepped out of the visual range of my own web cam and watched as a horrific scene played out. One guy grabbed her from behind. She kicked and screamed, and even bit the guy's hand. He threw her to the floor. Another guy pressed his knee painfully into her back. The first guy turned around and must have seen the light on the camera. He picked it up and dropped it on the floor. The camera rolled and aligned perfectly with Jane's face. I could see the fear in her eyes. She mouthed something to me, I think it was no, and then the camera was smashed. Static played across my screen and I quickly typed in a command that made the video chat save.

I pulled my cell phone out. I was going to call Korsak, or Frost, or Maura. I had to call someone... anyone. My financial adviser looked at me. I could just teleport there and kick someone's ass. I shut my phone and the world faded to black.

The series continues...

Part Four

The days past, Jane called me a few times to make sure that I was doing okay. Some days she sounded more concerned, and other days she just called to let me know that they were still working hard on the case. I didn't except them to get any solid leads yet, but I was kinda hoping. I had been working a late night, spending extra time in the office. I had made it a habit a bit to often lately, and did feel bad that I was neglecting my kids. They didn't seem to mind the pay checks though, and the trips to foreign countries, so they didn't complain.

-Note: Rizzoli POV.-

Rizzoli sat in a booth at the bar she frequented. Maura sat across from her, sipping on her wine. "You know, you never did tell me everything that had happened," Maura started. Jane gave her a look. "I really don't want to talk about it. I'm still a bit concerned though." "Well Jane, you have every right to be. Her rapist is still out there. But honey, I'm more concerned with you right now. You seem to have distanced yourself from everyone, even me."

Rizzoli picked up the bottle of beer she was drinking and took a long swig. She looked out the window, an angry expression crossed her face. "Hey, what ever it is. I can help you get through it." Maura told her. "Not this Maura, not this." "Is it about Allison?" Maura asked. Jane nodded. "Well, did you at least have fun?" Jane looked to Maura and a smile played across her face. "Yeah, I had a great time. It was exhilarating. I have never felt this good in a while." Jane played with her hands, continuing on talking about Allison. Before it got to intense Maura did an ahem style cough and Jane looked up. Standing behind her was Korsak.

"Hey Korsak, what's up?" Jane asked. He looked serious, too serious, for Jane's liking. "It's Allison, she's been hit by a car. An Escalade to be exact." Jane looked worried. "I'm going." She grabbed her jacket and stood up. Maura followed suit.

A little while later they were there at the hospital. I was laying in a bed, an oxygen mask covering my face. I was unconscious. "What happened?" Jane asked, a little forcefully. "We don't quite know who is at fault," a doctor said. "What are her injuries?" Maura asked. "Well the only damage really done was to her left leg. She needs a few pins in her knee, and a metal support to help the shattered tibia. She also has a few broken ribs, but mainly she's going to bruised." Maura nodded. "Can we see her?" Jane asked. The doctor nodded. "She is unconscious, but I am not concerned. Her brain scans look good." Once again Maura nodded.

Jane stepped into my room. Machines were beeping, making sure my heart rate was monitored. Jane sat down in the chair next to my bed. She sighed. She quickly stood up and left to room. Maura, who had been looking on, watched as her friend struggled with her emotions. Jane walked down the hall to the bathroom, tears in her eyes.

Maura sat down in the waiting room, and picked up a magazine. "You know, you really have a lot of explaining to do Jane," she said quietly when Jane appeared from the bathroom. "I know... It's just really complicated for me. I..." she began. Her phone rang. "Rizzoli!" she barked into the phone, trying to hide the fact that she was upset. "Hey partner. We got a report that someone spotted our rapist at the local Walmart." Frost said. He then gave her the location of where the Walmart was.

I came back into consciousness, and began taking rapid breaths. The pain in my leg as excruciating. Tears filled my eyes. A run came to my side and calmed me down. She said she was giving me something for the pain. I slipped back unconscious as she gave me the pain killer. A few moments later my body was in spasms and my heart rate was erratic. Maura jumped up and turned around. "What's happening?" she asked. The doctor shook his head that he didn't know and wheeled me out of the room and into a critical care unit.

-Note: Jane POV.-

Jane was pacing back and forth at the entrance of Walmart. She wanted to catch this guy. The guy that had hurt her friend.. her girlfriend.. lover... no- her friend. She played with the words in her head. Still trying to make some sense of how she felt. When she saw him coming out she yelled at him. "Hey!" He took off running and she followed suit, tackling him to the ground. Korsak was right there and told Jane that he was going to arrest him. "I got it Jane." Jane let go and said that he could have him. "Get this monster out of here," she practically screamed. She was still furious at the man. Her cell phone rang and she answered it. It was Maura. "Jane, you really need to get down here." Jane turned and told Korsak that she was going back t the hospital, something had happened.

Jane was in the waiting room. Maura looked at her. Frost stood next to some vending machines. "Jane I think you need to sit down for this." Maura said. Jane looked to where my room had been. "Oh god Maura. No. No. NO. Come on." She had her hands on her head and she walked back and forth. "Jane, please. I need you sit down." "Please tell me it isn't what I think it is." "I will tell you when you what happened when you sit down." Jane sat down, head in her hands.

"Allison has been moved to a critical care unit. As far as they can tell she is doing okay. Something happened and she slipped into a coma. They don't know what yet, but they are working on it." Maura explained. "Now will you tell me what is going on?" Maura asked. Jane sat back and looked at Maura. "She kissed me." Maura nodded. "And I kissed her back." "Okay, so you kissed her back, that doesn't mean..." Jane interrupted her. "I kissed her back and I liked it. God Maura. I don't know what is going on with me." She stood back up.

"Jane, I think that..." Maura paused. She stood up and held Jane's hands. "I am here for you no matter what. Gay or not, if there is anything I can do for you, let me know." Maura pulled Jane into a hug. "You are my best friend, don't let anyone get in the way of that." Jane smiled and hugged Maura back.

So I am really into the show Rizzoli and Isles. I am fascinated with the story lines and the plot twists, and have become somewhat... fixated.. (yes, obsessed). So naturally I am dreaming of it quite often, putting myself into the story. These dreams are a set of them.. yes I dream episodically... I can't remember exactly when they started, so I am just going to write them out. And not all of them are lucid.

Part One

I watched as the cute brunette sat speaking with woman after woman. I knew she was a cop. She had that air to her. And the blond that kept bringing her drinks... she was something too. I watched from my booth in the corner as the blond took every cup off the brunette's table and placed it in a small bag. I could tell that they were a team. A smoking hot team, sure, but still a team. What I couldn't figure out was what they were after. 'Hell,' I thought to myself, 'if I was a bit braver, I would go over there and talk to her.'

I had no idea who they were looking for, or what the case was even about. All I knew was I thought the brunette was hot. Someone must have said something, because before I knew it, she had seated herself across from me. I looked into her brown eyes and smiled.

"Hi." I almost whispered. "Hi," she replied. "Nice book you got." I closed the book I had been reading and set my hands on top of it. "I noticed you have been watching me, thought I'd come over and introduce myself. I'm Jane." I smiled at her. "Hi Jane, I'm Allison." I saw the blond in the background look up from whatever she had been doing to look for her friend.

"You're friend is looking for you." I said. Jane waved her hand, like that didn't matter. She looked down at my hands. I could almost see her wince. "Oh, don't mind the ring," I started, "my wife died 3 years ago, I just haven't found it in me to take it off." She looked up at me. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to.." I cut her off. "You aren't. I promised her I would come every Friday after she died, and I have. So, tell me, what is an undercover cop doing at a place like this?"

She looked shocked. A sort of, how did I know kind of way. I smiled at her. "It's all rather interesting, and exciting. So who are you after?" Jane looked at me, "Well to be honest, I'm just here..." she stopped, "About that girl that was murdered. Trying to find who did it. How did you make me as a cop?" I smiled and pointed. She turned around and saw that I had a clear view of the back of the bar, where the blond had stored the glasses. She smiled at me.

"If you ask me, the bartender did it. She seems kinda ruthless. Anyway, I bet you need to get going, here is my card if you need to get a hold of me." I slid my card across the table to her. "Thanks, I'll keep you in mind." She stood up, smiling again, and walked away. I watched her ass, nothing better to do since I lost my page in my book. This was a far better thing to be looking at anyway. I stood up and walked away. I figured she wouldn't call, I also assumed that nothing would happen between the two of us.

Part Two

I was sitting a a desk. A rather small cubical desk. I enjoyed it though. I knew the large company was mine, but I didn't mind sitting with the other programmers. It helped me keep things in perspective. I heard my cell phone ring. 'Who the hell would be calling my cell?' I asked myself. Everyone I knew would have called my work number. I shoved my pencil in my mouth and answered the phone. " 'Ello.' I mumbled into the phone. "Hi, Allison? Its Jane." I heard her sigh. I took the pencil out of my mouth. I shoved it behind my ear and stood up. I was a little nervous, and walking around would help.

"Hey, is there something I could help you with?" I didn't want to show her that I was nervous.

-Note: This is where my dream view shifted to her.-

I saw her run her hand through her hair. "God, I don't even know why I am doing this." I watched her as she paced back and forth. She seemed nervous too. "I was wondering, um.. you know... Shit."

-Note: View change back to me.-

I was just listening. I listened as she nervously tried to ask me something. "Hey, is everything okay?" I asked. "Yeah, everything is fine. I was wondering ifyouwantedtogotodinnerwithme." She spat it out all in one short breath. "Um... sure. When?" I asked. I swear I could almost hear her swear because she hadn't thought it all through. "How about tomorrow, at say 7. We can meet at the bar we first met at?" I asked. She sighed a breath of relief. "Sure," She replied.

Time passed quickly and I soon found myself outside the bar looking at an amazing woman. Rizzoli was wearing a pair of slacks and a blazer. I felt underdressed in just my jeans an a tee shirt. Though I had made sure to pick my tightest jeans, and a medium sized shirt. "Hey," I said and offered my hand. "Hey," she replied. I shook her hand, electricity running through me. I wanted the other woman.

"I hope you're hungry because I have the perfect restaurant." She took me by the hand and walked me to her car. I thought that was a little weird, but hey, I wasn't going to complain. She drove us to a nearby place and she parked the car. I hopped out of the car, and held the door open for her. I thought it was a nice gesture, but I couldn't tell what she thought. She motioned that she needed a place for two. I wanted to watch her ass as she walked by, but she motioned for me to go first. The hostess motioned for a table and I sat down. Jane sat down across from me. She mumbled a thank you and grabbed a menu. I didn't quite know what to make of it. She seemed to be hot one minute then cold. I couldn't read her reactions.

She ordered a beer, and I followed suit. We ordered some food, she ordered some sort of pasta, and I ordered some sort hamburger. We chatted, about nothing in specific. Sometimes her work, sometimes mine. The evening was going well. I finished off my third beer. I was more tipsy than I thought because of my medication. I mumbled something. She laughed and smiled at me. "Hey, we should get out her here huh?" She paid in cash and we stepped out of the restaurant.

"We shouldn't drive home." I told her. "Oh, god no. I would think about it. I don't live to far from here if you want to just walk." I smiled. I would be getting to go to her place. She made a joke and I shoved at her. I missed, but she playfully shoved back. She managed to get me, and I almost fell over. She grabbed me and pulled me back to her. She landed against a wall and pulled me into her, to make sure I didn't fall over. I leaned into her, and placed my hand on neck. I kissed her passionately. She kissed me back. After a few seconds I broke it off. She looked at me and I backed up. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have kissed you. This was supposed to be something for fun. I should go." I turned around and hailed a cab.

"Wait," she started, but I never gave her the chance. I stepped into the cab and left her standing watching me leave.

I was in the living room watching the television, it was a show about fat people and ways to lose weight. I watched it a bit more and I realized it was a Dr. Phil show, he was talking about the importance of exercise in losing weight, I was feeling particularly fat right then, but I didn't want to exercise… Dr. Phil kept talking about the various things that could happen to overweight people, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart attacks, strokes… endless amounts of problems that can come from being overweight. I was thinking I really should get out and exercise, so maybe I would take a walk, I certainly didn't have the patience to listen to Dr. Phil any longer.

I went outside and started walking, the weather wasn't as hot as I had expected it to be, so I thought this walk might actually end up being a decent length one. The main road near my house is under heavy construction, so I didn't think it would be very pleasant to walk there right now, so I decided to look in other directions. I headed down a path I had never noticed before and I soon found the landscape changing around me, I was slowly leaving the desert landscape and entering a forest of trees. That seemed really odd… odd enough for me to do a RC, which revealed I was dreaming!

So now that I realized I was dreaming, I stopped to think of my goals for the night… at first I couldn't think of any of them, but I finally thought of the one from Mortal Mist where the goal was to explore a forest and note all of the details of the season long with the animals, weather, and other details. That would be a nice relaxing dream to have right now, so I thought I would do that. I walked through the trees, looking at the place and making note of all of the details I could, the trees were beautiful, the leaves were blowing in a gentle breeze, all of them were changing color to various shades of red, orange, yellow, blue, purple, and teal… um… blue, purple, and teal? Well, that didn't matter, this was a dream forest after all… I wondered if there are places where the leaves really do turn to shades of blue and purple, then I thought of course there are! I'm in one!

I continued walking through the forest, making note of and enjoying every detail I could take in, the feel of the cool breeze on my skin, the smell of the trees… it smelled like it might rain soon… I listened to the birds singing in the trees, the crunch of the fallen leaves on the ground as I walked through them, I caught glimpses of small animals running around in the trees, several squirrels, a couple of bunnies. One of the squirrels was quite brave, it ran right up in front of me to grab a fallen nut and then ran back to the trees and disappeared into its branches, I figured the squirrel was storing food for the winter. I saw more movement in the trees, and this time a fox emerged, cute! The fox was definitely brave, the fox came trotting right over to me and looked at me as if he expected me to pet him. Wait a minute… that fox could be none other than Pablo!

I sat down in the fallen leaves and stroked Pablo, the dream had become so vivid as I focused on every detail, the fox's fur was so silky and soft as I pet him. Pablo was a red tailed fox with a white chest, red fur on most of his body, dark brown feet, a long fluffy tail, most of the tail was red like the rest of Pablo, but the tip of the tail was pure white. What I noticed most that I couldn't get over was how soft the fur was, as soft as petting a cat, it was too soft to resist putting my arms around him and giving him a hug, burying my face in that soft fur. I saw movement near a tree and I looked, there was an animal I didn't recognize digging a hole in the ground near the base of the tree, I figured that would be a den, I wondered if that might harm the tree to dig right there… Pablo changed from an adult red tail fox to a fox cub so I could scoop him into my arms and continue walking, such a cute fox cub… I carried Pablo farther down the trail until I found a stream flowing across the path, the sound of the stream was so clear, the water was also clear, I could see some small fish swimming around in it. There were rocks positioned perfectly for crossing the stream, things were so clear that I could clearly see the difference between the dry rock and the wet rock that was being splashed by the stream.

I had to do a RC again, because I thought I would soon forget I was dreaming if I didn't remind myself, so I re-confirmed that I was dreaming before crossing the stream… and then the fox disappeared from my arms! I was momentarily alarmed, then I realized Pablo had probably just woken up, so I got down on my knees by the stream and splashed some of the cool water on my face, and it felt wonderful. I sat there for a bit longer, letting myself take in the details of the blue sky which I could see between the trees on either side of the stream, and there were some fluffy white clouds drifting across the sky… nothing looked like rain, I wondered why it smelled like rain… I got up and headed back into the forest, watching the birds flying around as if they were in a hurry to get something important done. I was walking down the path, getting close to forgetting it was a dream, when a huge shadow fell over the forest, a huge dark shadow. I also heard a loud "THWUMP… THWUMP…" sound from overhead and felt a rush of strong wind blowing down from above. This wind felt a bit chilly, and many of the colorful leaves that had been hanging on to the trees now fell off and blew around in the hurricane type winds. I looked up just in time to see a huge winged creature fly overhead, creating the wind as it flapped its massive wings.

The animal had flown farther along the path, so I followed the path faster, I really wanted to see what that thing had been. I knew it was a dream, so I had no fear that I would be in danger from it. I finally exited the thick part of the forest into a large clearing, a meadow, and I spotted several deer running past me and disappearing into the shelter of the forest. Whatever that thing was, the animals were scared of it, and maybe with good reason. I looked up and I could hardly believe my eyes… it was a dragon! A huge dragon, it flew over the meadow, swooped around in a large arc, and then returned to the meadow. It flapped its massive wings to slow down and land, the force of the wind almost knocked me over, and finally it landed and roared a deafening sound. Wow! The dream was so vivid and now I was meeting a dragon! Awesome! I had barely found a bit of voice to my awe, "Wow… you are absolutely AWESOME!" I said to the dragon, "Absolutely AMAZING!" I stood there taking in the details of the dragon, his size… he was huge… his scales, they were of various colors of greens and browns, but all of them glistened in the sunlight like gems… he had claws like spears on each of his limbs, teeth, huge white teeth, and his wings! He really could make a hurricane with those wings! I was sure of it!

So now I was facing this huge dragon, I had no idea what its intentions might be, but I felt like I was losing the dream, like I was going to wake up. No way! There was no way I was going to let myself wake up now that I was face to face with this amazing creature! Refusing to lose the dream, I focused on Allura's method of time dilation, and by doing this I managed to stabilize the dream, which I will continue in the next post.

To be continued…

I'm a rabbit. That's odd enough.

Well, I'm an anthropomorphic rabbit - kind of like a furry, but more realistic; I'm actually a rabbit walking on two legs, just human-sized. I'm very light-colored and I'm somehow aware that I have a strip of dark orange fur down my back, though at no point in the dream do I look at my back. I am also a cowboy rabbit (cowgirl, really, though I wasn't really wearing the stereotypical cowgirl suit) and as such I am dressed up in desert cowboy gear. Two fox tails are hanging off of the back of my hat as a testament to my hunting skills.

I am sitting in the wide open desert, on a rug outside of a tent, fiddling with my gear. Even though it is the desert, it isn't burning hot, oddly enough - the wind's blowing crisp and pleasantly cool, like on a nice Fall day. I look up and a yellow-furred mouse I recognize to be my elder and mentor is walking towards me. I wave, turn to back up my stuff into my satchel, and then begin to walk towards him. He tells me that this desert is different from others and he needs to teach me some of the dangers.

We walk in a straight line, on a path that is edged by dunes. As we go along, chatting casually, I notice that the dunes are getting more and more detailed - I'm seeing wildlife and strange, colorful plants growing out of them. At one point, in between two dunes on my right, there's a long rectangular pond edged by stones with blooming cherry trees and grass surrounding it. Underneath the cherry trees, the sky is different - there are large, puffy clouds slowly moving across the blue, reflected in the water. It's a bit like a Japanese garden, and very vivid.

We keep walking, however. One other landscape stands out in my memory. Between two dunes, there are several large leafed-out trees and colorful plants poking up from the sand. Eagerly, I step forward to walk through, curious to see what's on the other side - but my mentor pulls me back, and several seconds later a group of predatory venomous frogs between the sands. He reminds me to always look before you leap, and then says that that's enough for the day.

There's a small timeskip and suddenly I'm at home, in the kitchen, near my mother - an older plain brown rabbit wearing a blue dress. I remember the kitchen being a very dingy, small version of my grandmother's, with much less color. The windows over the sink have a view of tree-covered mountains, surrounded by gray mist and an overcast sky. (Last time I looked out in a window in a dream, I saw this same view and it was also in a dark, dingy room, over a sink. Potential dreamsign, maybe?) There is a ladder behind me leading to the attic/my room, so I climb up it.

The room is made of dark, slightly faded wood, and the ceiling seems like it was in a pattern like a wicker basket. I can still hear my mentor's voice in my head, though I didn't see him any more - he is telling me that it is almost Christmas. Indeed, as I look around the room, there are various shelves and my dresser topped Christmas ornaments, though they are scattered and disheveled. My mentor tells me to clean them up to make my mother happy, because she is sad for some reason, so I do - I go around the room and polish and arrange them. There is one set of chesslike pieces of Christmas figures that stand out in my mind for some reason; they are slightly worn and made of frosted blue glass.

Eventually, I sit back down on my bed to observe my handiwork - the room is considerably brighter and cheerier. In fact, the color itself seems more vivid, and the lighting is as if someone turned off a harsh, sterile white light like one you would see in a doctor's office and turned on a yellowier, friendlier one. I feel happier and warmer on the inside, and I am aware that relatives are coming into the house downstairs. I head back to the kitchen, which is bright and happy once more.

Then I wake up.

This starts out as a long non-lucid dream, but I did manage to become lucid! YAY!

I was on a ship in the middle of the sea. I don't know why I was there, nor how I got there, but it all seemed natural to me. I was watching some of the crew members run around. A few of them were working, a few of them were playing games, and a few of them didn't seem to know what they were doing. I felt like something was off, but at the same time had spotted a nice looking woman. I walked over to her and smiled.

We engaged in mindless chit-chat for a while. It was like neither one of us wanted to say what we were really looking for. I knew what I had wanted. It wasn't soon after that, that I was in a brand new place. Having no idea how I had even gotten there. It looked a bit like the forest. I was wondering if I had teleported. That would be cool. The pretty sea lady was gone, sadly, but there was nothing I could do.

I walked around, looking for other signs of human life. The place was void, and it seemed a little dark. I promised to myself that I would not panic in the face of unknown dangers. I took a deep breath in, and calmed my nerves. I didn't want to enter the forest, so I instead walked along the outside of it. There was like ocean and cliff side next to me. I wondered if I was in Ireland, when the scene changed once more.

Now I was in a room. My current girlfriend, Silver Wolf, was there. Also there was my ex-girlfriend. My ex was laying on top of my legs. I had always joked about her chest size. We are all just talking, even though I feel like I am a prisoner in my ex's house. I feel like something is off. I know something isn't right and begin to analyze everything. My ex sits up and there are two weights left where her chest would have been. I can't move my legs. I tell myself to remain calm, and take a deep breath in. She says she had gotten a reduction done, and this was how much they took off. I looked up at Silver Wolf and ignored my ex.

My ex walked over to me. I was suddenly listening to music and she takes the earplugs out of my ears. I can still hear the music. Wait.. I must be dreaming.

I tell my ex that I am dreaming and I want her to go away. She laughs at me. I notice then that I am handcuffed to the bed.. What the heck is that all about. I focus my energy to try and change the scenario. Nothing happens. I am sure I am dreaming. I can't move my legs, sleep paralysis. I can still remain calm, my breathing rate is normal. I am in charged of my dream. I go through reaffirming and solidifying the dream. I looked back at my ex. "I know this is a dream!" I make the handcuffs disappear and my ex cackles. "You are good, that is for sure."

I sigh. I don't have time for this crap. Not now that I know I am lucid. And its so vivid. I pinch my nose and breath in and out. This action gives me dream control.

I laugh back at her. "So who are you really? You know.. it doesn't even matter. You're gone." She vanishes right in front of my eyes. Now I look at my girlfriend. 'What should I do?' I ask myself. I decide to have fun, after all I haven't been in complete control for a while. I change her to be blond, and skinnier than she is now. Now we are going to play a messed up version of cops and robbers, where I am the caught robber. She attaches restraints to my wrists. She is teasing me by going slow. I see a shadow move across a door way out of the corner of my eye. I look to it and command that there be no interruptions. Then its like I can see into another room. "And no parents!" I shout. The image changes slightly. I look at Silver and tell her to hold on for a sec. She freezes and turns to shades of gray.

I walk over to the figure I see in the room. It's my ex's mom, Bree. I haven't seen her in a while. "Surprised to see me?" she asks. I know she is not a DC. I go to sit down, trying to summon a chair at the same time. It fails and I sit on the floor. I am overwhelmed by a vast array of emotions. She tells me everything is okay, and that I am doing good. I am on the right path. She is trying to get my attention to tell me something important. I can feel the dream slipping. I take notice of how my non-dream body feels. I am still dreaming lucidly. I look up to her. I am going to stabilize the dream when my cell phone vibrates.

I hear it in the dream and feel like I am being pulled away. I try to reach out for Bree to hold onto, but am awake before I can.

Bree died a couple of years back. So I was especially surprised to see her. I think its part of an ongoing attempt to give me a message.

The earliest I can remember is trying to fit in and out of a "space station" thats on earth in astronaut gear and talking about how I'm gonna have a real problem with claustrophobia. Later I'm cave scuba diving with A, D and C. We have cool masks that enable us to talk and we're squeezing through these tight crevices with our oxygen tanks scraping and eventually we swim into a cavern where we can surface but it only has the one underwater entrance. The dream is amazingly vivid and despite my fear I'm really enjoying it. We swim back, the caves are lit with underwater lighting and the contrast and colors are awesome. We surface on a wooden jetty that is built for scuba divers. As we're leaving Ross and Nick are going in the opposite direction coming from a scuba class in a pool. They seem impressed that I was in the caves. Later I'm back in the caves with them (could have been a later dream cycle)

I wake up at 7am take the kids to school and go to have a nap at 8am since I'm really sick and off work today. I try to wild and get really close but I wake up every time my body does weird stuff (noises etc.) Eventually I fall asleep and dream about playing soccer at the italian club, apparently Sias from 5fm is gonna show up. One of the guys headers a ball and it looks unnatural so I realize I'm dreaming, I do a nose pinch and my consciousness shifts to my real body (I'm not counting this as it was too short)

July 30, 2010

Synopsis: I'm told to find my friend who is lost in the dream world and help her. I feel like I enter my friends dream, and we have a crazy adventure! Water monsters and riding a manta ray! Lucid. Shared-dreaming theme.

Night Time Note: I had read a mantra before sleeping, but I forgot what the mantra was!

A Friend is Lost in the Dream
I'm in a large house with lots of old faces from my old job. I don't remember who told me this, or when, but I just remember being told:

Our friend is lost in the dream world. We have to go find her. Sam and Laura have already left into the dream to go looking for her.

I don't know who the friend is that's trapped in the dreamworld. And I couldn't remember who Laura was, I had trouble recalling the right face to the right name. But anyways.

Me and my old co-worker Megan get ready to enter the dreamworld. I decide to leave first. I make my way to the back porch. The porch is actually a staircase, that mysteriously stops in mid air. Below us is the dreamworld. My mother is sitting on the steps, I thought of her as a gatekeeper. A cat nearby seems to be a guardian.

Before leaping off the staircase, my mother tells me "The first person you'll find is Sam." I'm about to leap when my mom interrupts me again "Oh wait! Do you have Sam's number on your cell phone?" I go back inside and look for my cell phone, and I can't remember Sam's number for the life of me. Oh well.

I jump and become lucid! The scenery is beautiful and very bright and vivid. It's a forest. I fly quickly over the forest, remembering in my head my task. 'Find Sam, find Lori or Laura, then find the friend I'm supposed to help!'

I start to yell "Sam! Sam! Where are you!"

I fly into a small town. And right away I find Sam! She was in an old fashioned horse drawn carriage, being carried like a princess, of all places, through a boring apartment complex. Sam seems happy to see me and I quickly make room for myself in the carriage. Sam tells me she's already been dreaming for at least 45 minutes, and now she's going to wake up soon. She didn't find the friend we are supposed to help.

Excited I say "Sam! We're dreaming! Remember me when you wake up!"

She tells me I should be able to find this Lori/Laura. She gives me a big hug, and disappears. I assume she woke up.

I run through the neighborhood, avoiding random DCs by taking the back alleys. Eventually I come to a tall house that looks like something out of a fairy tale. Inside I finally find Lori/Laura. And the name and the face were completely wrong. This character was unstable, fuzzy, as the name and the face made no sense to me. I follow her outside.

But once outside she was completely different person. She was a 'name' and a 'face' I knew and recognized - Maggie. No one ever told me I would meet Maggie.

She asks me "Have you been looking for me?"

It doesn't even occur to me that this is the friend that I'm supposed to find and help! Still thinking I still have to find someone else, I tell Maggie "We should go!"

"You're right, come on!"

Maggie's World
(I remain with a light lucidity)
It didn't feel like it was my dream anymore. From the get go Maggie had me running! Someone is after her, who I don't know! It's a dream theme I know so well - I have a chase-dream tag.

"Come on! Hurry!"

Usually in my dreams I am on the run and my friends follow me. This time, my friend is on the run and I am simply following her blindly.

Maggie was a fast runner, one of the fastest "dream characters" I've met. I had trouble keeping up with her, flying was too slow, my legs were too slow. But Maggie would often look behind to make sure I was still there.

After running through several neighborhoods we find two bicycles. Oh perfect! Now we can really make some distance between us and these bad guys. But the bikes were rusty and crappy and we ditch them soon after.

I try to transform to make keeping up with Maggie easier, but it didn't help. Every now and then Maggie would run strange, like she has an injured leg. Then she would run normal, like there was no injury. We climbed fences, and made our way through a complex construction site with wires and pipes and giant boxes.

We snuck our way into a facility of some sort. All the while, Maggie is still leading the way. I'm not sure what this place is. But this seemed like a bad idea. So many walls, and corners, and doors. It's like a maze.

We hear something. . . is that. . . water? A giant wave of water was rushing towards us. If the wall of water wasn't bad enough, it was full of giant worm monsters that were made of water. The giant water monsters attack us! Damn! We need to get high, above this wave.

Just then, we see a giant manta ray flying gracefully, gulping the water with his giant mouth. Maggie has a most devious expression, lol, I just laugh at her crazy thought. We wait for the right moment and then we leap on top of the giant manta ray! Riding safely above the monstrous wave.

Woah! Riding the giant manta ray was wild! He was like a roller-coaster. A gliding roller-coaster! Both me and Maggie scream excitedly like little girls. At first I was crouched down, holding on tight. But when it became real fun, I stood up.

The manta ray swallows all the water and comes to a slow stop. We jump. We really need to get out of this crazy place.

"Come on! This way!"

Maggie leads the way again. We run through a supermarket that quickly transforms into a futuristic laboratory. Oh damn, the water is coming back. Maggie suddenly stops running, she has a pensive expression as if she's trying to think of something. No time to think!! I run right past her and down the hallway.

Bad move.

It was a dead end. Did Maggie know it was a dead end?

I turn around and the water monster has me cornered. The manta ray was drifting slowly towards the water, but he was flying real low. Where as the wall of water was towering high! Crap! The water monster comes crashing towards me! Scared, I hide in a closet that magically appeared for me.

Silence.

The closet was white. Just white. It would have been a void if it wasn't for the visible slits of the door. For a moment I wait for the water to seep in and flood the closet. But nothing happens!

I sigh deeply. Damn, I just ruined the dream didn't I? A lot of times if I leave the sight of a dream character, that dream character will disappear. I was afraid that this awesome "dream character" Maggie would disappear now. I sat there, waiting, any moment, I'll just wake up.

Then. . I hear footsteps splashing through a puddle of water. It's Maggie's footsteps. She runs up and down the corridor. Is she looking for me? I pop out of the closet. And there was Maggie waiting for me!

"Come on!" She leads the way again. Her legs are even faster now. I had to find ways to make my running path shorter than hers to keep up. We enter a warehouse. Maggie looks up at the crates floating above us. Good idea, if we can get up there we can safely get above the wave.

I press a button hoping to bring the crate down, instead the machine drops the crate and the entire thing smashes on the floor. "Oops..sorry!"

Maggie tries to find another way up there. Why don't we just fly? I try to transform again, and I try to fly up there, but I can't. I can barely make five feet off the ground. I hear footsteps. A large group of men surround us, their leader was an arab man in a suit. He had Sayids voice from the show Lost. Are these the bad guys Maggie has been running from?

Maggie tries to ignore their threats as she desperately cuts away at the rope with pocket knife. I'm not even sure what's that going to accomplish except - nothing! For the first time I seriously doubt Maggie's plan, what ever it is, will work.

I blast a fire ball at the leader! He's not impressed. "What are you doing in my warehouse? And why are you ruining it?"

So. . he's not after Maggie?

"Wait!" I said "We just want to leave this place. Can you please show us the exit and we'll leave you're warehouse alone?"

Maggie continues to cut away at the rope.

"Then, I will show you the way out." He presses a button and a door opens. Maggie reacts like a cat and bolts out the door. I just take my sweet time leaving. Once were outside, Maggie finally relaxes.

"I thought for sure he was lying about letting us out." She says

The man shakes his head and explains "I keep my promises." He turned out to be a really nice man. The next scene was vivid, but for some strange reason I have trouble recalling it. I think the man offers us two bicycles, but they were all rusty. Maggie complains that texas bikes don't rust. The man, a true sales man says "Ah, but do your bikes have big wheels like mine?"

I feel it's almost time, to wake up I mean.

I look about me. The scenery is gorgeous. Mountainous, green, ripe. Maggie talks to the man and laughs at herself for running away all this time. A lemon tree was growing next to us and I grab a fruit, quite lucid. It smelled so richly of lemon!

"I can't do it! I just can't do it! I know it's a dream but even then I still can't bite into this lemon!" My mouth waters at just the thought. Maggie laughs at me.

Quite happy that I left Maggie in a more peaceful and vivid dream, I say goodbye and wake up.



Sweeet

I was sitting with my brother in a building that had a subway station below it. It had large glass walls and benches everywhere. We were sitting near the entrance where there is a large space between the bench and doors, just staring out the windows and talking. I forget what triggered it, I just remember that it was something from a previous dream, but I became lucid. I was so positive that I did not need to do a reality check. I remember saying,

"I had a feeling this was a dream the entire time"


I get up and stand in the spacious spot. I jump in the air, hoping to hover or fly but I fall right on my ass. I get up. I wasn't unhappy though because last time I attempted to fly I woke up. This time I remained lucid which was pleasing to me. I looked at my brother, was staring around the place attentively, it was pretty funny how realistic he looked. I tried to fly again but then I had a false awakening. ...of course I didn't realize this until I woke up
