nightmare

Orange = Lucid

If only I could remember more of this. It might make a bit more sense, lmao.

I'm somewhere random trying to help this guy bury this dude who accidentally killed himself with a gun (he was about to kill the guy I was with but the gun electrocuted his heart, resulting in him dying instantly). We don't know what to do with the body. There's a pond next to us which I spot out though (we're all standing (in the dead guy's case, lying) on a pile of logs) and me and the guy I'm with roll him off into the pond. We can still see the body. Then somebody is coming for us. I jump up and grab onto something above me, hauling the rest of me up in the process. The guy I'm with hides himself. We don't get caught.

We're now outlaws in the middle of nowhere. It's not just me and this guy though, there's more of us now (we're all dressed up as animals for some reason). This guy is the leader and he's a vulture (or something) Suddenly we're about to get busted again by some form of authority. I curl into a really small ball as to avoid being seen, and surprisingly, I get away with it.

I'm now in a random room. It's baby-like. I'm in a bed with Dad lying next to me. He seems different though. He's way more open, and for some reason fondling my 'area' with his foot, although I don't think he's aware that he's doing so.Then the thought clicks ''Wait, where am I? I'm in a child's room with my Dad who's acting strange and treating me like a child... WHAT?! Have I gone back in time?!''

I'm now in the kitchen with Mum, terrified about the whole going back in time thing, as it's happened a few times and I have zero control over it. I ask her how old I am (to find out where I am). She refuses to answer. I go into the dining room and Dad's coming out of the living room, so I ask him how old I am. He replies ''10''. I freak out. ''What?! NO, I'm almost 18! What's going on?! I'm travelling back in time for reason and I can't stop it at all?!'' Mum dismisses my views. Dad says ''Actually, I have been noticing differences about you recently. You've gotten really tall suddenly for example!'' (I also noticed I wasn't wearing any glasses here, which I wear all the time; another thing which made me think I had gone back).
Then the light goes out, and Mum passes me the phone. I can hear our dead cat on the other end, but there's scary music playing as well, so I put it down quickly and turn the light back on. I'm desperate to be acknowledged at this stage (I'm literally panicking). Something really doesn't feel right. I think to myself ''Why am I going back in time?! How do I stop it?!'' I try to tell Mum about Dizzy (our cat) dying in the 'future'. She doesn't have a clue who Dizzy is. I then realise this must be before we got her, so telling her about it is absolutely pointless.

I'm now on my bike heading to town. It's night and my lights don't work, so I have to be careful not to get hit by cars. I'm still dead scared about the whole time travelling thing.

I'm going down a hill as a near town, passing people with dogs and such. As I enter, it suddenly becomes a house. There's a girl and a boy sitting at the end of a bed, on the floor, to the right of me. In front of me there are stairs. I go down them. There's load of people sitting on couches and having a laugh. None of them seem to welcome me, and make no inclination to wanting me to sit with them/wanting to make room for me. I decide to go back upstairs. The girl and the boy are about to get off. I figure I want to join in some of the action, too, but they tell me no. I think to myself ''It's alright. I can just change it so that they let me.''
.................................................. .
''WAIT. WHAT?! That means I'm dreaming!''
By this point I realised that everything around me was extremely vivid (hence why I mistook it for reality) and became lucid. I almost didn't believe that I was dreaming though, so I did a reality check by trying to push my thumb through my hand. It failed. I figured this might happen (like a previous dream I had where I was dying, and tried this RC only to fail) so I proceeded to hold my nose and try to breathe. During the middle of this, I then noticed a mirror in front of me. One of my best friends Kevin was running (in the mirror) towards me. He then smashed clean through, and was in the room with us. I thought to myself ''Yup, I'm dreaming alright.''

I then woke up pretty much instantly. However, I think this was due to the fact I had to wake up at 7, and I woke up about 2 minutues before because my sub-conscious didn't want the shock of the alarm.

I'm in Ben's Playworld (a thingy me and my family used to go to on holiday, back when me and my sister were younger) with Dad (apparently Mum, too) and Tabitha (my sis).

The first thing we do is go to get some tokens from this machine, although Dad notices one of the trays is broken (so anyone can knick it and receive free money) and puts it on the side and doesn't let us take it. He then gives me 2 tokens (or I found them, I can't remember) but I don't know how to put them into the machine properly and spend ages trying to figure it out. Eventually that gets sorted and we go off to the 1st 'attraction' or w/e. However, me and Tabitha are adamant on returning to the machine, so we can grab the tray before somebody else does.

Once we get to the 1st thing, Mum's already waiting for us. She's sitting in the middle of a huge congregation of seats. We go up and join her, and a guy at the front starts talking. (I can't remember what he was on about, but it was really boring, and there was something to do with random trippy lights and explosions coming from him?) Eventually, that ends and a train arrives to take the crowd of people (my family included) to the next bit, but me and Tabitha (I think) stay behind until the train is out of sight, and then race back to the machine.

Upon entering the room, the first thing we notice is that the tray is gone. I'm like ''Damn it! Who took it?!'' and some random group of kids come up to us. One of them tells me that Dan Green (a guy who was in my year back when I was in school, who I had quite a few 'disagreements' with) had taken it. I then see him with my mind's eye in front of another machine, with the tray in his back trouser pocket, and he's laughing (like when you get a quest to kill a boss in a game, and there's a brief cinematic thing).

I can't remember what happened next, but I then found myself on a lower floor, on my own, fighting various WoW mobs, in packs of 6+ (mob = enemy NPC) with randomly acquired Warrior skills, complete the the spell interface, such as 'Blade Furry' (allows you to strike more than 1 mob with each attack, which lasts up to 20 attacks I think it is) and 'Bladestorm' (which is where you spin around crazily with your weapon, beating the crap out of anything which moves) and these spells had no cooldown either (a cooldown being the amount of time before you can use a specific spell again), so I was constantly spamming them. After wiping out of the majority of these mobs (in the quest for tokens, I believe) I was faced with one remaining pack, which I accidently aggroed (so I was taking on about 12 mobs, and didn't realise this new pack was filled with elite mobs (elite = usually needs more than 1 person to kill)) and then died as a result. I instantly re-spawned however, in the same spot (if not slightly further back in the room) so I could finish the job easily.

(The next bit jumps a lot, and I can't remember anything from here on very well.)

I then go with Tabitha to find Mum & Dad. Eventually we find them. (Here's the jump) Something happens and we're all falling out with each other, ''just like usual whenever we go out somewhere'' (I can't remember who said that. Probably Mum) So then we start to make a move home, and the last room before the exit (which is in sight) is quite big and filled with random people playing tennis, etc (which, now that I think about it, looks a lot like the sports hall at my old school). Anyway, I'm trying to get through without getting in anybody's way, but it's rather difficult, and I didn't realise I could have just gone around them. So, naturally, people start getting annoyed with me, (I mean REALLY annoyed) and as I'm nearing the exit some old guy comes up to me having a proper rage (probs the owner or gym leader or something), and I remember thinking I wanted to smash the white-haired wrinkle-face out. I was also really angry with my Dad for some reason (I can't remember why though, and possibly wanting to smash him out too).

(Another jump, I think)

All of a sudden a stoat (I think) appears in the corner opposite to me (I'm standing at the back, on the right hand side, and this thing spawns from the front on the right) and starts going crazy. Like, 'causing mayhem' crazy. There's a mad panic, (This thing is huge as well) and we're all looking for something to kill it with, then it claims a horse. I see Tabitha in the corner to the left of me trying to reach a shotgun attached to the wall (unusually high up for some reason) with a walking stick thing, but it's too high for her so I try. I manage to get it down, and then pass it to my Dad, and run back to my spot. We're all telling him to be careful. He takes aim, shoots, and kills it, losing one of his teeth in the process (probably from the rebound) and for some reason I randomly lost 3 of mine (even though I was by no means near the gun or in the firing range? It was my left hand side molars)

I can't remember what happened next but I think I ran out of the building (or sports hall as it now seems. What a strange playworld?), past somebody's grave (taking the shoe which was on top of it with me?) and into a field nearby. Turning back to face the building, it looked like a church. There were a few people outside by the grave which looked upset. I was really upset about everything as well. I was staring at the shoe. It had some sort of significance, and was a smaller version of my own. I then saw a guy coming up to me from the grave, with great disapproval in his face. He then took the shoe away, and went back, and I started breaking down. The last thing I remember is sitting in the field looking up at the sun, filled with despair, crying (A song playing through my head which has direct relation to the terrible time I went through back with my ex Rhea, which was seeming to be rearing it's ugly head again for some reason. The lyrics that played being):

''All I have is you
It is all that I'm breathing for
All I need is you
Now I can't make it through
I am losing you forever
I am lost in pain without you
I am leaving ground forever
All I have is you.''

Then I woke up crying, realised it was a dream and stopped.
