nightmare

I began to drift off to sleep one night, and i began to feel aware of my presence in two separate places. one was me sleeping on the bed, the other was me sitting on the edge of my bed. i felt completely in control of both, in a very calm state of mind. using the one sitting up, i leapt off my bed, and crouched down on the floor, pausing a moment to stabilize the dream. i made a sword materialize on my back, able to define every detail of it. my thought drifted to my baby brother for a moment, and i found myself outside a hotel room, it was snowing. i looked through the window, and saw my stepfather holding my brother, my mother on the bed with my other brothers. i felt a sense of dread as i realized i wasnt there. i realized this was my family without me. feeling endangered, i ducked around the corner, slipping and falling. i concentrated on my other consciousness, and woke up. this was a great step for me in lucid dreaming and controlling myself.
