LUCIDMAX's max lucids!

Sorry for making you wait, guys. What with the injury I got, and the trip to the desert, and the exams software develping thing, I have been really slacking off in my updating. I got the paper DJ RIGHT HERE, and I am gonna copy past it. Hold on for an hour or to, and go get a coffee. Oh yeah! lucidmax's back on the line!

P.S. I don't keep a date on my paper DJ, as I assumed I would be typing it on the computer anyways. -_- Sorry.

I had somehow traveled to the future. Everything, each and every thing, was made of glossy glass. (forgive the pun) I was standing on a platform. I remember I saw a white tiger crawl stealthily by, with a large red sign above it 'Dangered Species. Do not erase OR eat.', that sort of laid waste to it's rather successful attempts at stealthiness. I chuckled to myself, [COLOR="teak']turning semi-lucid for a moment or two,[/COLOR] and losing lucidity again. I continued along. I jumped on a bed, then jumped a few more times, going higher every time, before finally hitting the glass dome of the city and injuring my head. Though I hit my forehead point blank, I felt the pain in my arm.
Suddenly, my Tae-Kwon-Do sparring partner comes up, and slashes at me. He had the sword Cloud uses in Final Fantasy.



Instinctively, I summoned my sword. That's right. Without turning lucid. I block his slash, then push my sword back, causing him to go back as well. I didn't give a single thought to lucidity, it was just me and him. I rushed towards him, and slashed swiftly at his side. e parried my attack, and then countered with his own.
It lasted for some time like this. We slashed and thrust at each other furiously.
No clear winner emerged. We just fought ourselves to exhaustion.

Finally got over my dry-spell.

So wheels WERE used.

I had this lucid dream after a bit of MILD and WBTB combined. I threw in a little FILD, too. Worked great.
This dream occurred after I had slipped into sleep. My WILD failed, but I got lucid nevertheless.

I was an archeologist. I was researching the Tomb of Tutankhamen. They said that whoever touched a certain stone on the grave died instantly. As this was a life threatening situation, we officials were sent by the FBI to research it for it's potential killing power, so that it could be used in weaponry. We arrived, with big, hunky men patrolling ahead of us as bodyguards. There were a few people with me. I remember seeing my friends dad, but the rest were all unfamiliar.
We walked towards the pyramid. Though it was bare desert all around us, it was extremely cold. We were all wearing fur coats. Something about earth's reversing polarity.
We went inside the pyramid. A group of paparazzi were following us, along with irritating media reporters. I think, "Damn paparazzi. Why are they spoiling my dream? Oh well." And I wave my hand. They disappear into nothingness. I did NOT become lucid. It's just that I have become so much used to LDing that this stuff happens.
I continued my way inside. A foul stench greeted me, something like badly maintained public toilets. I went along a dark passageway that was lit by only flaming torches. I went inside a a stone door. There it was. THE tomb.
The smell was unbelievable. It reeked of death and decay. It was toxic. No shit! We had forgotten oxygen masks! I go outside to get them, but now, I was actually in that period of time. I could see a dozen more pyramids and sculptures. There were people bustling here and there, all wearing nothing but a short cloth around their loins, and the women were wearing those.......things....you see in movies. White, old fashioned gowns with red necklaces.
It was a little weird, but I justified it as movie props. I asked a DC, "Excuse me, but, have you seen my car?"
"Sure. It's round the corner from here." "Thanks."
I went to his directed path. When I arrived, there were just an ice cream stand. Good. I was feeling hot from the running anyways. I ordered an ice cream. The attendant there told me that there was no electricity here in this past world, and that I would need to "contact the authorities". Bummer. :/
I saw a bunch of people walking by. They were talking excitedly, in a language I could not comprehend. Now I began to doubt reality. No way this could be real!
I became lucid. I did an RC, just to be sure. I was dreaming! Awesome! I calmed down. It's good to have a lucid dream after a dry spell, but I can't end it soon. I watched around a bit. There were many pyramids, but most were of sphinxes and Pharaohs. I saw a DC wearing a suit and went up to him.
"Excuse me, but where are the construction grounds?"
"93 Berthingale Street."
"Okay, thanks."
God, my DCs suck at directions. :/
I ripped open the fabric of time and space, creating a portal. It was my first time actually creating one. I jumped inside it, expecting myself to be at the place where pyramids were being built.
I succeeded. I was in a large, open area. There were many pyramids under constructions, and there were numerous slaves going at it. The typical thing you see in movies, you know. There were some leaders that were cracking whips at the slaves, forcing them to do the work. I saw a cart pulling up gold statues pass by me. Wait. I thought Egyptians didn't have the wheel? I ask the DC that, and she replies, "Well, that's the big deception. We use the wheel, but don't tell anyone about it. Insolent little brats."
And she walks away. I laughed to myself, and started to grow wings to fly. I was in the middle of the transformation, when I woke up because of falling from the bed.

Short lucid, but it's not my fault. -_-

The Ultimate Fighting Monster VS lucid max's Group. A three way shared dream!

Rating : ★★★★★★★★★★

Date : 7th of June, 2010

Absolutely the most EPIC dream of my entire life. I came home after not sleeping for an entire day and a half from a trip, and was unbelievably tired. After a good meal and a hot shower, I went straight to bed. My muscles were so tired that I need not practice any relaxation, the bed was heaven for me at that time. There was my cousin, about 9 or so, who had also gone to the trip with me, sleeping in the same room as me. It took all my might not to fall asleep, and I had to use a beeping light to keep myself conscious.
I kept looking at that small blue beeping light, concentrating on clearing my mind of thought. Perhaps after 20 minutes, I couldn't bear it any longer. My eyes were closed half-way. They remained like this for a minute. With my other half of the eye, I say that the beeping light had changed to a steady light, and the color was now green instead of blue.
Thinking I might be in a dream, I got up, extremely slowly. I first flexed my dream muscles, getting used to the sensation. As I transferred to my dream body, I noticed that I was suddenly a lot lightheaded, as if some kind of burden was relieved from me. I smiled. After all, my dream body was way more fit than my real body, which is pretty good by itself.
I got up from my bed. My eyes were now glued halfway. I could not open them, and closing them was all too easy. Fearing that the dream would end if I closed my eyes, I forced the open using my hands to pull the eyelids upwards. I succeeded. I saw a sudden bright light. I was again on a grassy hill, with only a few trees that were a good distance away. This landscape occurs so much in my dreams that it could be a dream sign.



I kept looking around. The simplicity of the current landscape allowed me to stabilize my dream easily. Then, I started to feel hear and there, activating my sense of touch all over my dream body. When it was good enough, I took some deep breaths, and listened to the sounds around me. I could hear the wind blowing steadily, and the distance chirping of a bird. The sky was blue, with a few clouds, but there was no sun, or any kind of source of illumination, for that matter. This only reinforced my lucidity. I started chanting under my breath, saying "This is a dream." over and over again. I find that this helps me keep my lucidity for long periods of time.
BOOM!! A resounding explosion. A blast of fire and smoke issued in an instant on my right side. There was something there. I looked there, and recoiled in horror.
There was an abnormally huge monster to my right, some hundred meters away. I was the height of a skyscraper, and was at least the width of four trailer trucks. It was all scaly and dark brown. It had no visible head, just a pair of eyes, a nose, and a huge mouth near it's front. There were numerous thin arms along his sides, and there were huge pores on his skin that were firing hydrogen bombs! It reeked of death and decay, and the stench filled my nostrils. It was making noises which were something like a Tyrannosaurus Rex bellowing. The whole thing was disgusting.



Suddenly, I heard a terrified scream. Crouching nearby was my little cousin, shouting with all his might. It did not occur to me then that it could be his dream. I went to him, and saw that he was very badly scared, and could hardly talk. Then it suddenly hit me. Either I am in his dream, or he is in mine. To tell him from a DC, I tried talking to him.
"Hey, it's all right. It's okay. It's just a dream."
He looked at me with big eyes.
"..........but......I just saw you eaten by that monster, Max."
"No, that was a fake me. This is the real me. You know, this is a dream. Just a freakin' dream."
"Dream?.......Then that means.........it's all not real?"
"No, you are just inside a dream. As soon as you wake up, it will be fine."
"Then..........this thing can't hurt me?"
"No, not in the slightest."
"This is so awesome! I can't believe I was scared to death a moment ago."
"Yeah. But you wait here, I will take care of that monster. Try to feel around a bit, and don't do anything too exciting. You wanna stay in the dream, right?"
"Yeah."
He obeyed, and then felt the grass around him. I had told him of lucid dreams before, and he was doing what I had told him, stabilizing and trying to make the dream clearer.
"What's up with you?!!", screamed someone from behind me.
I turned around. It was Leona. She was wearing a black full body armor, with purple linings on it. She looked extremely hot in it.



"What?"
"Are you blind?!! Can't you see that thing there?!! And you are standing here teaching a nine year-old how to stabilize his dream!! You know, that thing just destroyed my summer apartment!!"
"Whatever. I'll make you a new one soon."
"Well, do something about that thing!"
"Okay, boss." I say sarcastically, and fly off, using the zoom method, near to the head of the monster.
"Hey buddy! I can't have you ruining my dream scape here! Sorry but I will have to kill you!"
I calmed down. Excitement is a dream killer. Focus on defeating him. I summoned my sword, again feeling that rush of power along with it.
BAM!! And hand had grabbed me when I was not looking, and slammed me into a wall. The pain was incredible. I almost woke up from it.
"MAX!!" I heard Leona scream.
She flash stepped to my side, cut of the monster's arm in an instant with her own sword, and freed me. There was an expression of concern on her face.
"Are you okay?"
"Yeah......" I said, while coughing up blood.
There was a vigorous movement. The arm that had been slashed was moving. Suddenly, three more arms sprouted out of it. Leona reacted quickly. She grabbed me, and flash stepped to a good distance away.
"No shit. This thing can regenerate. What the HECK does this kid dream about?!"
"He's my cousin."
"Figures."
"Hey MAX!!!" Another voice from behind me. It was one of my classmates and my childhood friend. I shall not mention any names here, for the sake of her privacy.
"Guess what?! I tried FILDing tonight and it worked. My FIRST lucid dream."
Her words took me by surprise. Then, it hit me. ANOTHER shared dreamer? That means, me, my dream guide, and two other dreamers, all in the same dream?
I looked over to my cousin. He was now trying to fly, jumping in the air.
"What's up with you, Max?" says my classmate. "Oh, I forgot, you're just a DC aren't you? Well? How does it feel to be a DC?"
"Hey...............wait........ I am not a DC. This is the real me, I am having a lucid dream as well."
She was totally shocked.
"What THE HELL??!!!"
"Yeah, somehow, you came into my dream. I am lucid now."
"This is sooo COOL!!! My first lucid is a shared!"
She was too excited. She fainted, and slumped to the ground. She was just a beginner, after all. She woke up, after that.
"Oh well. So long for her." says Leona. "Max, it will be very easy for you to share dream if she learns to lucid dream. Her energy signature is very similar to yours."
"Really?"
"Yeah. But we have this THING to take care of, first."
The monster bellowed once more. Taking a lesson from my friend's sacrifice, I stabilized my dream again.
I looked around. My cousin was no longer here, it was just me and Leona. So much for the shared dream.
Whatever. I touched the tattoo on my arm. I underwent the same vampire transformation again. I turned into a vampire, holding my sword in my hands.



I used my wings to fly. I flied at full speed at the monster. Immediately, long, tentacle-like arms came up to counter me. I slashed smoothly at them. They fell to the ground with loud thuds. But then, over more sprang out. The arms were getting more and more hideous.
A violent flash of bright, purple light. The monster screamed in pain. Deep slashes appeared all over his body.
I tried something different that I have been thinking about for a while now. Summing up my energy, I shouted, "BANKAI!!! Espada el Diablo!!" (literally means 'The Devil Sword')
A wave of pure darkness followed my words. My sword began to shake violently, and then, it shattered, like a piece of fragile glass, into a million little fragments. The fragments continued to shatter, until they were no more than shadows. Dense shadows.
They filled the entire space. It was pitch black, but I could still see everything around me.



"Cool. Nice technique. But what the heck does it do?"
Leona was behind me. She had transformed into a vampire, too. She had white wings, pale white skin, the same blood red, cat-like eyes, and claws. She also had fangs, something which I didn't.



"Um......I haven't figured out yet. Hey, Devil J! (short for Devil Jin, the spirit that resides in my sword.) How the fuck do I use this thing?"
"Shut up, asshole! Just use your hands to direct the shadows at the enemy, and see what they do!"
I lifted my hands. The shadows moved like a pointer on a screen directed by the mouse. I moved them over to a tentacle. The swallowed it, and when they moved away, there was absolutely nothing there! I was totally shocked.
"Resets space and time in a certain area to null. Use it wisely."
Awesome! I was so excited. I made the shadows multiply. They grew and grew, and swallowed up half of the monster. It's whole lower body was gone. Wiped out of existence.
"Great, Max. Now here's is my new technique. I have been working on it for a while now."
She touched her own sword's blade. It began to glow. It glowed quite violently. Then, huge flames erupted from it. The grew and joined, twisted and bent, and formed a huge phoenix.



The phoenix screeched. The monster had grown it's body back to normal again, perhaps even larger. The phoenix flapped it's wings, and started to dive towards the monster. It collided with the monster, and liquid flames came out from it. The whole thing dispersed, and the monster was swallowed by an unstoppable mass of flames. It was exceedingly hot.
"Thats not all."
"HUH?! You have something more than that stuff? You GOTTA be kidding me.
I was amazed by all this, finally learning a new power, then seeing that whole blast, and then the news that she had more to go. Too excited, perhaps, because I woke up.

I haven't had a lucid dream after this one yet. I will update my DJ as soon as I get one. I do have many non-lucids, but I don't post them here, only the exciting ones. Please don't forget to rate and comment! And if you see any spelling mistakes, please let me know. And oh, by the way, I checked with my friend and cousin about my dream, but they have no recollection after the time they lost lucidity. I used their references to patch up what I had forgotten in the first part.

Beach party with Moses!!

Rating : ★★★★☆

Date : 3rd June, 2010



I was on a beach party. The beach looked exactly like the image above, but there was also a cute little wooden beach house. I was along with five of my friends. All of us were in swim suits. I looked at mine. The were knee high drawstring trousers or something, colored blue, with a white image of a palm tree.
There were really fierce waves. I mean REALLY fierce. The wind was strong enough to pull us out of course, and the waves rose more than five meters high. It was a cloudy day, but the sun's rays were just visible through the gaps in the clouds.
I could hear a far off seagull's cry. We started to play beach volleyball, but the wind was too fierce and would cause the ball to go astray. Somehow, all of us found that extremely funny. We started to laugh, hard. We were laughing without stopping, without any particular reason except the ball's going off course. We laughed so much that it started to hurt my stomach, and tears came into my eyes. Finally, we hiccuped ourself to silence. Spontaneously, out of nowhere, I became lucid. Perhaps it was due to the fact that I live in a city in the middle of the desert, and that we rarely get such strong waves along the coast line. Whatever, now is not the time to wonder WHY I became lucid.
There wasn't really much scenery there for me to stabilize, but I did it anyways. I used all of my senses, including activating the sense of taste by tasting some sea water. When the dream was stable enough, I spun in a circle and rubbed my hands. The clarity was already pretty good, so it didn't have that much effect. But the experience was life like, or perhaps even more vivid than real life.
I walked around. I did not want to do something too exciting early in a dream, a golden rule of mine that works like a miracle. I used to instantly start smashing up stuff but it killed my lucid dreams, and not long after I learned my lesson and became more patient.
I walked up to my friends. One of them, a guy, said, "Hey, see those waves, Max? They seem pretty big. Think we will get a sale on those?"
Another one, a girl, replied, "Yeah right, everyone knows that summer sales are only on laptops. Besides, where are you gonna stash a surfing bear in that apartment of yours?"
"Hey," he replied, "at least it's not as big as your belly, it doesn't need an acupuncture every half hour."
I was laughing hard, again. But for the fear of losing my lucidity to their one-of-a-kind conversation, I intruded and said, upon suddenly remembering, "Guys, do you know where Moses is? The one who parted the sea?"
Every one started to gape at me, like I was mad or something. Another girl said, "Like. duh! Don't you know that he is on vacation in Hawaii right now? Man, you gotta buy some fashion magazines, you know that?"
"HUH?! Moses, the spiritual kinda guy, in a fashion magazine?! Are you kidding me?"
They all start to look at me weirdly again.
"Anyways, tell me which direction is Hawaii."
They look at me in even more surprise.
"Dude, this IS Hawaii."
"Ah, I see. So then where is Moses?"
"He is on the clearing around the forest. He was helpin' lil' kids to cross the ocean, you know. To make sure they don't fall into the clams at the bottom."
"Okay, thanks for the info."
I use the rope method to pull myself toward the end of the forest. I feel a tug around my waist, and I quickly transport to there. Then, I start to run, looking for Moses.
WHOOOSH!!! A loud sound came up from ahead of me. The ground started to rumble. The wind suddenly became a heck of a lot faster. I actually had to use telekinesis on myself, imagining me glued to the ground, to avoid flying away with the wind.
Then, the whole sea in front of me split apart.



Wait, wasn't there a condition? Shit. Wait up!! WAIT A FUCKIN' SECOND!!!
I snapped my fingers, and stopped time. I did that by imagining a movie being paused. Everything became perfectly skill, and a little blurred, or shadowed. I had suddenly remembered that Moses need to part the Reed sea, not jut any random beach.
I tried a trick I had never done before. I concentrated any summoned a large banner that could be poked in the ground. But before writing anything, I did a reality check, stabilized more, and rubbed my hands again. I am taking no chances.
I use my finger to write something up. But I see that I have written a jumble of random words that make no sense. No matter.
I cause the letters to morph and re arrange themselves, something like Tom Riddle (Voldemort) does in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. The words now read, "Welcome to REED sea!"
Not exactly what I wanted, but it was good enough. I planted it in the ground, and believed what it said.
I unfroze time. Now, the sea was blood red. Maybe something related to the similarity between "Reed" and "red".



Oh well, as long as it's a sea. The sea in now completely parted. Great! There goes another task of the year!
But, Moses seemed to be having some trouble keeping it parted like that. Don't know why, buyt I went there to help him.
I was standing on sand, which was supposed to the ocean bed. I built an invisible wall on both sides to keep the water from flowing in.
"Whew!" , said someone near to me. It was Moses! He was in a white robe, with his hood down so I couldn't see his face. He was also wearing a golden armor on one hand.
"Thanks for the help, kiddo. You could become a better Moses than me."
"No problem. Tell me, do you only go around parting seas and stuff?"
"No, but I am famous for it. Say, do you want a new dream guide?"
"Huh?!"
"Yeah, I came here to become your dream guide."
"Sorry, but I already have one."
"Oh, that vampire brat?"
"Yeah."
"But I am much greater than her. I can show you the mysteries of universe. I can lead you to the divine. I can make you spiritual. Your dreams will be the strong hold of good."
"Wow! Thats amazing. Leona never did that. Can you really do that stuff?"
"Of course I am. Who do you think I am?"
"Right. But the me something. Can you fight?"
"No, I am a good guy."
"Can you kill monsters?"
"No."
"Can you turn into a vampire?"
"No."
"Are you a hot young lady?"
"No, of course not! But that doesn't mean I am.........pleasurable." (PS sorry if anyone was offended by this, but as you know, it was just a dream, nothing else.)
"Sorry, but I am totally into women. Tell me one last thing."
"Yeah?"
"Do you know how to pilot combat space ships?"
"No, I don't."
"Sorry then, but you are just not my type. I will stick with Leona for now though. Come once in a while to give me some of that divine experience of yours, will ya?"
"Ah, that Leona. That mother fuc**ng bitc*h $/&^#!!!!!!"
"Whoa there! You're Moses. You are not suppose to curse like that. Only teenagers can do that."
"This is the 21st century, dude. So long, bi*ch!"
He disappears into thin air. Oh well. I have to wake up now, before I forget the task of the year. I force my real eyes open, something I can do even since I was not lucid dreaming, and wake up.


Oh and by the way, my exams have finished. They went real good. I am expecting at least an A in all of my O'level exams. Now I will regularly update my DJ. More dreams to come soon! ^_^

Sorry for the late updates, guys. It's just that I am currently very busy with my IGCSE exams. I still have two more lucid dreams in my paper DJ that I haven't typed yet.

Zombie Slaughter!! And other cool stuff.

Rating : ★★★☆☆

Date : 1st June, 2010



I was somehow inside a haunted mansion. The building was really old, perhaps a century or two. There was a large, open area in the middle of the mansion, where there should have been an indoor pool. Perhaps it was not dug up yet.



My vision was third person. I saw me, my friend, and another guy I don't know, enter the clearing through a large, shiny bronze gate. We came inside, and started to look around. I saw myself touching the wallpaper of the place, feeling it up. Then, I felt this weird sensation on the back of my neck. The atmosphere of the dream changed. I am sure you all know the creepy feeling when a nightmare's about to start.
Suddenly, I heard a gushing voice. Then, all of the paths leading out of the place were blocked by heavy iron gates, the kind you see on old metal safes. We all started to panic, and began to run here and there, pounding the doors and trying with all our might to escape. But it was useless.
The 'gushing' sound grew louder. Then, out of nowhere, water began to pile up. The depth of the water was increasing fast. With nowhere to run, we were going to drown!



I begin frantically pushing here and there, desperate for a means of escape. No use. I lost consciousness.

I woke up. I tried to FILD, according to my usual habit, but I was too tired to stay conscious, and drifted back to sleep.

I was inside a van, along with a detective party. We were investigating a case about a murder that had occurred a few nights ago in a mansion. We were heading towards it.
We were on a road that was on a cliff. The cliff was very steep, practically vertical. It was very narrow, but we managed to get the van through. The road seemed to be endless. It was very dark, like mid-night. There were no street lamps, or any illumination of any kind whatsoever. Not even the moon, nor the stars. We could only see a little ahead of us due to our head lights, but that was it. Aside for the area that the feeble lamps and the few lights inside of the van were illuminating, everything was pitch-black.



No one cared about it, though. We were all having a great time, drinking beer and singing songs along the way. Nobody was driving the vehicle. It was moving on it's own, finding it's own way along the dangerous path.
Again, the atmosphere changed. We all sensed it. We stopped singing, and held our breaths to listen. A lone wolf's howl, and the screeching of bats. Aside from that, there was dead silence.
The van suddenly stopped. What the heck was wrong with it? One of our group decided to check it out. We all warned him about the road being haunted, but he just gave us a thumbs-up and stepped outside. We all saw him go the the front of the car. He opened the hood, still smiling. He had a cigarette in his mouth.
The hood of the van blocked him from view. We hear him doing this and that under the hood for a while. Then, suddenly, there is a whoosh sound, a moving shadow, then silence again. Now, we couldn't hear that guy who went outside.
We were wondering what happened. We decided to go out and check what was wrong. Five of us got down, and went to the van's front.
There was no one there. The only thing there was that guy's cigarette, nothing else.
Suddenly, we hear a lot of sounds, like some one, or something, is coming. The sounds kept getting louder and louder. Now, there was also a deep moaning alongside it, a moan of pain, fear and regret. It was the most hideous sound I have ever heard.
Out of the dark shadows, figures start to crawl in. Realizing what was going on, I shouted to all of the group to quickly get inside the car. We all scrambled inside, locked the doors, and closed the windows. There were heavy steel bars around the windows, so they could not be broken easily. The whole van was also pretty tough, so there was no chance that anyone, or perhaps anything, could come inside.
We waited with our breaths held, looking at the figures that were slowly coming into view. Finally, we started to clearly see them. All of them, each and every single one, was a disgusting zombie.
There were about thirty of them. They all started to cram around the car, clawing at the windows' bars and the gates.
We were trapped, inside a car that couldn't move, without food or water, and best of all, surrounded by zombies.
One particularly terrifying zombie managed to get his face through the gap the the bars, and was biting it the thick glass window, which happened to be nearest to me. I could see his face in perfect detail. He had blood all over him.
Wait a minute, what THE hell is going on? Stuck inside a van with a bunch of strangers? Detective? Me? On a highway? And, what's more, looking at the face of a person who should right now be begging for ambulance?
I became lucid. Man, my awareness is getting crappy! It took me a lot more time to realize that I am dreaming than usual. Oh well, at least I got lucid.
I waited a while for the dream to stabilize. I started using my senses, touching here and there, concentrating on the sounds and smelling the air. It reeked remarkably of blood.
I rubbed my hands. Just to raise awareness, I kept chanting under my breath, "This is a dream."
This helped me keep my awareness. Slowly, I started to move my whole body. It was functioning okay, no problems. Good.
While still chanting my mantra, I looked at the face of the zombie again. A while ago, I was filled with dread. Now, it became comical. I laughed at how he was pitifully biting the glass window he could not hope to penetrate.
I smashed open the window, grabbed his head, and threw him away. He went flying a long way.
The landscape had changed. I was on a grassy plain, or rather, a grassy hill. I was on the top of it, surrounded by zombies. I thought of summoning my sword, turning into a vampire, or using magic. But no, I was bored by these old fashioned techniques. Though they were immensely powerful, I wanted to do something else this time.
I imagined a heavy machine gun. I looked in my pocket, and pulled out a small model of it. I looked away from it, expecting it to be life-size when I look back. I was successful. I now had a pretty heavy duty machine gun in my hand.



Laughing like a maniac, I opened fire. It was great. The machine gun's firepower was awesome. They were falling like hell, but they kept on coming. I blasted apart each and every one of them. A good thing to try to relive stress.
I constantly fired for about three or four minutes. When I stopped, all of them were down, blasted by innumerable bullets.
I stabilized my dream again, calming myself down and looking here and there. The scenario had changed again. I was on top of a snow mountain. There was a really strong blizzard going on. I couldn't see very far due to the snow. It was all pure white. Such a beautiful scenery could not possibly exist. I was completely mesmerized by it.
I went into a shallow cave. It was dry and warm. I could see the view outside. I couldn't believe it. Having lived in a desert all my life, I wished to go to a place like this. It was all so real. So calm. So peaceful. You wouldn't think that I was the guy who was killing zombies with a maniacal laugh just a few minuted ago. ^_^



Since I was so relaxed and at ease, I thought of trying something that I have been wanting to do for a long time. I stabilized my dream again, and raised my awareness by doing extra RCs, too. I did not want to wake up in the middle.
I sat down, and started to meditate. I cleared my mind of all thought. I calmed myself down further. Deep breaths. Peace of mind. I tried to leave all of my worries and problems behind. It felt really great, to do something like this once in a while.
I closed my eyes, to relax myself even more. But I kept using my other senses, to stay in the dream. I felt a kind of buzzing sensation. It was quite pleasant. Nothing like I have ever felt in real life.
I opened my eyes, and got a real shock. The landscape was not around me anymore. Actually, there was NOTHING around me anymore. I was floating in a void, but it was not black. It was pure white. It's whiteness was dazzling my eyes. I felt as if there was no gravity there, because I was freely suspended in air. The place had no end, no roof, nor floor. Just an endless expanse of space.
I looked here and there, but all I saw was the same never-ending whiteness. I 'forgot' that I existed in real life, rather, it was as if I really 'live in my dream world, and that it's not just some temporary thing.
Some kind of invisible force lifted me up. I could feel a kind of pulling sensation, as I moved toward the non-existent sky. I was surprised, but I was not scared. It did not feel as if a single negative emotion existed in this world.
Suddenly, I was bathed in a bright golden light. It was warm. I could feel a sense of exhilaration. It was amazing. I also heard a strange melody. Not like anything I have heard before. I got very excited. I felt a kind of a vibrating sensation. It was all so strange, but, it was pleasant. It was something I cannot put in words, no matter how hard I try.
The vibration [got more intense, as did the exhilaration. I was too naive, perhaps, for I woke up soon after that.
That was my first time meditating in an LD. I have practiced meditating before IRL, but not in an LD. After having an experience like this, I am going to try it more often. I didn't know that it was this cool!

How to make fire ; A tutorial by me. ^_^



Rating : ★★★☆☆

I was shopping outside with some of my friends. We were all going to a certain shop in the distance. The streets were quite busy with passersby. I noticed that one of my friends was wearing a black tee shirt. Seeing this, I did a reality check. I pinched my nose, and found that I could still breathe!
I become lucid. I stabilized my dream by rubbing my hands. The vision was life-like, and my lucidity was also very high. I looked around for stuff to do, and remembered the Task of the Year. I might as well try to teach those primate humans how to make fire. I walked into a large mall, thinking how to go to that era, and viola! A whole forest was in front of me. There were tall, dense trees all around me. I walked ahead, and after a while, I came to a lake. It was so peaceful and beautiful here. There were all sort of weird plants near the lake.
I spotted some monkey-like humans nearby. Good. I come near them. They seem to be scared of me. I yell out to them , "Hey! I am Max! Who are you guys?"
They replied, but in a strange language that I could not even begin to comprehend. What the heck. I guessed they wouldn't know how to make fire. I decided to try it.
I took a few twigs, and some flint stones that happened to be sitting nearby. I rubbed them together, and sparks flew out of it.
But the twigs didn't like up. Shit. This is taking too long. I use magic, and just used my fire ability to light up the twigs.
They were really surprised. The were scared to come close to the fire. But one of them bravely came up, and touched it. He yelled in pain. Seeing this, the other primates started playing with fire too.
One of them picked up a burning twig, and started to wave it in the air. All of the others did the same.
It was really amusing, watching them do this. Then a burning twig fell from the hands of one of the guys, and the grass caught fire. In an instant, the fire spread out to the whole forest, as if it was all kerosene or something.



They all started to shout out excitedly, as if they has never seen a fire before. There were really happy smiles on their faces. They spread out, each in a different direction, and started to chase the still spreading fire. Then they started to make little fires of their own, shooting out fireballs and lighting up trees. I was standing by, watching them play with fire.

Thats the last thing I remember, because I probably lost lucidity here, watching the whole scene.

I had a short false-awakening. I realized after waking up from a dream that I was still in it. I got up, and started to look around. I was in my room. It was pitch dark. I tried to find my way out, but there was no door where it should have been. After messing around for a while, I give up. I was about to blast apart the whole building, but then I woke up.


Date : 28th May, 2010

Another very short lucid. I tried to FILD. I entered SP really slowly. Then, I entered dream state. But my eyes were stuck half-way. It was like seeing half reality and half dream. I tried to force my eyes open, but they wouldn't budge. I caught a glimpse of my 'dream' room, but nothing else. My eyes were too heavy too open, and I fell asleep again.

I was inside a castle. There was a gigantic ball in full swing going on. I entered through a large hallway, which was made of fine, polished marble and extremely subtle silk hangings, which were blood red with a black dragon crest in the middle. The pillars of the hall were made of pure gold, with an amazing spiral design.
I went inside the main ball room through a large gate, which was also blood red and had golden fixings, patterns and handles. A chauffeur opened the gate for me. I entered, and was truly exhilarated. There was a fine carpet, huge enough to cover almost the whole of the ball room. There was a platform on which a band was playing. It was a sad, deadly tune, which filled me with despair and horror.
I walked ahead, somewhat enjoying the scene. There were rows and rows of tables neatly arranged in a line, with every delicacy you can imagine. Waiters were bustling here and there, carrying goblets of a wine like liquid, which surprisingly looked like blood. I took one from a waiter, and took a sip. It tasted really weird, but also very pleasant.
I started to look around. Somehow, I felt at ease here, like I have been to a lot of balls like this, and was used to the luxury and finery of it all. In the middle, couples were gracefully dancing to the tune. All of the the women were unimaginably beautiful, and the men were extremely handsome and suave.
I saw a hanging nearby, and my eyes fell upon the black dragon crest. Due to my habit of RCing whenever I see the color black, I looked at my fingers. There were ten on one hand, and seven on the other.
I became lucid. A good practice which helps me have long LDs is that I never to anything very exciting right into the dream. I though of trying a technique I thought up. I created a banner, and wrote "This is a dream, do not lose lucidity!".
It was quite difficult to write, but I somehow managed it. I made that banner hover in mid-air, so that it was always in my field of vision. That way, I would become lucid again even if I lost lucidity. I was successful. Every time my eyes fell upon the banner, my lucidity ricocheted, as did my clarity and the sharpness of the dream.
I started to notice the environment around me, to get it more detailed. There were all sorts of decorations, but all in that same black and blood red color scheme. I tried talking to some DCs. I asked a girl nearby, "Hey, where is this place?"
"Hollywood.", she says, and walks on.
A little amused, I try to talk to some more DCs. Around this time, I noticed something really odd with all of the people around me. Their skin was extremely pale. Almost as white as pure snow. They had a "demonic" look in them. And their eyes were cat-like slits.
Something clicked on my mind. This is a vampire's party. The whole castle is filled with vampires!
"Like it?" A voice said from behind me.
I turn around, and see Leona standing there. She looked the prettiest of them all. And the most "demonic" among them. Everybody halted in their tracks. She came up to me.
"How do you like it? This is my ball."
"Whoa! This is YOUR ball? That means, this whole castle is yours?"
"Yeah."
"Cool! But.......How come the people here are all vampires?"
"They are just DCs, to liven up the party."
'But why VAMPIRES?!!"
"Because I like it that way. Anyways, wanna dance?"
"Yeah, sure."
She leads me to the center of the room.
I lost lucidity. I was just dancing along with Leona, my mind completely blank and carefree. I forgot what was around me. I seemed to dance for a long amount of time, truly lost in the beauty and the perfection of the whole scene. Suddenly, a large banner flew up in front of me. It read, " Y #E$* DB&G# " (or something like that)
I thought, "Weird. Why is it flying in my face?"
I remembered something. Wasn't I the one who made this thing? In which case, WHY did I make it? I suddenly remember the reason, and become lucid.
I was still in the same scenario. My dream landscapes usually don't change much, even if I don't pay attention to them. Don't know why.
Now, all of the guests were looking at me and Leona. They had a killing intent in their eyes. Why did they suddenly turn hostile?
Each and every one of them was now coming towards us. While I was panicking, I saw that Leona was wearing an armor, the same as before. She was grinning. What a blood thirsty DG!
I summon some armor for myself too. Leona takes out a sword. It was the most beautiful yet strangely mysterious sword you can imagine. It was a long thin katana, somewhat like mine, but it was bright blue, and a silvery white aura was flowing out of it. There was also something "electric" about it.
"Cool! Where'd ya get that?"
"Shut up and fight already."
"Oh yeah!"
I take up a stance. I don't summon my sword, fearing me getting killed by it again.
"What's this? Where's your sword?"
"Ah..........I........like to fight with my hands."
"Yea right."
She grabs me, and opens up a tear in the fabric of space and time in front of us. She jumps into it, dragging me along. In an instant, we are on a large island in the middle of the sea, with very few vegetation and trees.



"We can practice with peace here. Now, what's up with your sword?"
I tell her the whole story. While telling the story, my eyelids were dropping, as if they suddenly got a lot heavier. It felt like I wanted to sleep, and very badly. But I forced myself to open my eyes.
I was still on the island. Maybe Leona understood whatever I was blabbering while semi-lucid, because she had a serious look on her face now.
"Well, summon your sword."
"But....."
"You ass, how'd you plan on fighting without it?"
"Maybe you are right."
Using the expectation technique again, I summon my sword. It was the same. And there was that black fire and that vibration again.
"Whoa!" Leona said. "This sword is totally made up of your negative thoughts and emotions. Quite a dark one. You sure you wanna control this thing? Try settling for something easier to control
"Nah, I'll take my chances, if it's really that powerful. But, what do emotions have to do with dreams and swords?"
"Man, it's hard to believe that anyone could be so ignorant. Your WHOLE dream is effected by your emotions. Try thinking of something that brings tears to you."
I did so. Suddenly, heavy rain started to pour.
"See. Thats the influence of you emotions."
'But....."
BOOM!!!!!
A catastrophic explosion. I was nearly knocked unconscious by it. There was Devil Jin again. He was looking at me with a leer.



"Okay, time for some real excitement. That girl over there can only tell you so much about me. Listen up, kid. You wanted a really powerful sword, didn't ya? This sword.......is me. Or I am this sword. You created me without knowing it. You were fantasizing about being dark and evil and stuff while creating this sword, that's why you got it like this.
"Huh?!"
"That lady was correct. You ARE really dumb. Anyways, it's like this. You played just a little too much with darkness. So I am here to test if you really are fit to control me. If you defeat me, I will not come up again, but if you lose, you're gonna lose all of your powers. And that includes flying. I am starting NOW!"
'Wait, wha....???"
"WATCH OUT!!"
Leona grabs me, and teleports a good distance away. My vision is like I am viewing everything from underwater. Jin had been behind me, and was about to cut me in half, when I was saved by Leona.
"Whew. Thanks."
"Shut up and fight!"
I run toward Jin, with almost unbelievable speed. In an instant, I am right in front of him. I punch his stomach, but he catches my punch in mid-air. I hear a voice behind him.
"Did you forget that I am here too?"
A flash of blue. Leona was behind him, and had slashed him quite deeply. He was surprised.
I touched my tattoo. I EXPECTED the transformation to follow after I did so, and so I transformed.
It was a little painful. Again, I grew black wings. My hands and feet became razor-sharp claws. My eyes become those slits again. I suddenly feel a burst of adrenaline and power.
I looked around a bit and saw that Jin had healed up, the wound on his back was closed as if it never was there.
Leona slashes him a few more times, but all of his wounds heal up in an instant. He grabs Leona by the face and flings her away. She was surprised. I used my crappy telekinesis to slow her down a bit, and she was able to stand up and came to a halt.
"Shit. I underestimated him."
She stopped time again. We both rushed at him, and he was standing still, as if paralyzed. Too easy.
He disappears, and appears right behind us.
"Heh, I can move from one place to another so fast that the time taken for travelling that distance is zero. It's equal to stopping time." (Note: I don't exactly remember what he said, but I am sure he meant something like this.)
I use magic. The familiar rings appear on my hand again. I wanted to try one thing I didn't do before.
I touched the water symbol, and the wind, both at the same time. An immense wave of water flowed out out my hands, followed by a fierce wind that directed it towards my opponent. The force of the water was so great that he smashed into the wall behind him, leaving several deep cracks in it.
I became non-lucid here. I suspect that I had a DEILD in the process, and the dream continued with a new one. I wasn't lucid. All I was doing was fighting Jin without knowing why. Leona, whom I forgot was my DG, swing her sword in a horizontal, circular motion. Huge shock waves cam from her sword, and hit Jin simultaneously. With each hit, he was pressed deeper and deeper into the wall.
I became lucid again, after thinking for a while about who was that girl helping me. Then I remembered. She is my DG!
Jin was heavily injured. I wanted to end this soon. I looked over at Leona. She understood, and threw me her sword. It flashed in air for a bit, and I caught it in my hand. As soon as I touched it, all of my anger and hatred flew out of me, and was replaced by hope, love and warmth. Heh, as expected of Leona's sword.
With a burst, I rushed toward him. He was almost unconscious, being injured that badly. I am ten meters from him. Five. One. Clang!
My sword hits and invisible barrier. I see Jin smiling.
"You can't cut me with THAT sword. It's not made for you to control."
Maybe he was right. But I saw a way around it. Throwing Leona's sword back to her, I quickly put my palm on his face. Good. At least I can reach him.
Since he won't be defeated by that "good" sword, I decided to try something else. My view switched to second-person here, as if I was right beside myself.
The rings were still there near my wrists. Almost instinctively, I touched the symbol for darkness. I don't really always know which symbol I am pressing, but by EXPECTING that symbol to be pressed, I can use magic a lot faster. I am not sure if those symbols even remain the same, because text and the like changes in dreams, right? But since it's all Japanese or something, I can't understand.
Again, the dark fire came out from my hands. With my left hand, I slashed him through the middle. My claws were sharper than I thought. He was sliced clean in half. He turned to dust, and vanished.
In the spot where he was standing, there was my sword. I heard a disembodied voice.
"Good work, kid. Guess that's it for now."
I picked it up. It was normal again.
Leona was right beside me. What THE heck? Wasn't she a good distance away? Oh well.
"That really IS one tough sword."
"Yeah, better than that emo sword of yours. What's with all the love and warmth and the goodness thing? I mean, you're WAY more evil than me."
Leona grins. I see her blood red vampire eyes for the slightest moment. "I need something to keep that evil inside me. This 'good' sword acts as a cancelling thing. Without it, you'd be dead one minute into each and every one of your dreams."
"Wha.....??!!"
But I didn't get to ask more. I could feel a sudden vibration inside me. The vibration get's stronger and stronger, and my vision starts to blur. I try to spin, but I have no control over my dream body. The vibration gets even more violent, and I wake up.

PS sorry for the late update, guys. I am quite busy here with my exams, for the moment. They will end one week from now. Look forward to daily updates after my exams finish!

Sword Goes Outta Control?!!

Rating : ★★★☆☆

Date : 24th May, 2010

I was in a large and luxurious shopping center. There were three floors, and a lot of shops with weird stuff. I was with two of my friends. We all were eating a burger and drinking coke, and going around window shopping. (For some reason, we couldn't buy anything because we had only three million dollars.) I am walking a little faster than the other two, excited by the shops and the stores. We are on the topmost floor. There is a spot on the floor so that if you stand there, you could see the outside scenario and the entrance to the shopping center. I look out, and was surprised by what I saw.



It was exactly like the image above, and the dragon was the same, too. I was a little amazed, but not enough to turn me lucid. Excusing the whole thing as movie props, I look down the glass window, seeing the entrance. It was normal, alright. I could see a lavishly decorated Mercedes Benz as a prize for a draw displayed in the front. I think, "Cool. I think I saw something similar in real life................huh? Real Life?! What's that supposed to mean?! This is.......This is a dream!"
I become lucid. Wow. Cool RC. Anyways, the vision was not really clear, and the dream was unstable. After a round of the usual clarity and stability exercises, everything becomes crystal clear.
I get an idea. Why not act like a freaky monster and kill all the people here. They are just DCs, after all. I summon my katana again. I feel a rush of energy through my body, and a great sense of excitement. Rushing towards the nearest DC, I slash him in half. I see the same black flames around my sword again.
The surprised DC splits in half, alright, but after a while, a clean cut appears in the wall behind him, extending from one side of the center to another, slicing the whole building neatly in half. All the DCs there start to scream. I was surprised. I didn't intend to swing with that much force.
I studied it closely. Everything was same, and it was vibrating and shaking, as if trying to get out of my hands. I could see the words "Espada el Diablo" shining and glowing brightly.
Now I could feel a deep, dense, and dark aura from it. I could hear faint screaming from inside it. Now seriously considering destroying the sword, I look about for a means to smash it or something. As soon as I let it go, it breaks free of my grasp, points towards me and



stabs me in the stomach. I was very surprised. I had never heard of a summoned object doing so in a dream, going against the dreamer's will. I could feel pain in the wound. It was very realistic. I could also feel the wound burning. I start to faint. I rub my hands, but nothing happens. I spin, but instead of the dream stabilizing, I fall to the ground. Not good, at this rate I'll wake up! I was helpless. I kinda hoped that Leona would come again, but she didn't. I was losing consciousness. I looked at the sword again, and saw this.



Devil Jin. He was standing there, leering at me. In his hands was my sword. He started to laugh. A cold laugh that chilled my very bones. He took one last look at me, and swung the sword at me. An immensely powerful shock wave, and I wake up.

What THE hell is up with me? Too much fantasy, I think.

I get beat up....

I dreamed I was in my room. It was normal here. I couldn't tell it from real life. I was busy doing preparations for the trip to Alaska. I packed my clothes and stuff, inside a teapot. They all just shrank and zoomed inside the cup, fitting easily. It was almost like magic. But that was normal. Teacups are used as suitcases in real life anyways, I thought. I also remember putting in a toilet seat inside, for some purpose. When I had finished, I went out out my room. In real life, I have made a mental note to do an RC every time I open the door to my room. Following the habit, I look at the wall clock that hangs near my door. 1:30 pm. Quite normal. Oh yeah, I have to look twice. Almost lazily, I looked again at the clock, thinking that it was a waste of time. The time was now 1:15. Hmmmm, that's odd. Maybe I read the time wrong before? Oh well, I will miss my bus to the airport if I don't hurry. So I continue out again, but I find that the door is closed. I pull it open again, but no go. Now seriously doubting reality, I decided to nose-pinch. I could still breathe!
I become lucid. I tried to sharpen my view. I spun around. I didn't feel dizzy, but my vision was certainly a lot clearer, as if some kind of fog had been lifted. I looked at my hand, just for extra lucidity. There were seven fingers in both hands. Again, my lucidity increased quite a lot. I open the door to my room again, but it was locked. I didn't want to do anything particularly powerful or exciting so early into the lucid. So I just kicked it away.
But I was now inside a roman stadium. I was never good at history, so I probably didn't know what was going on. There was an audience in high benches all around. There were gold fences around me, but the arena itself had a floor of dirt, mud and clay. In the distance I could see split air-conditioners all around. Good. I don't like being in hot weather anyways. I was wondering what to do, when I noticed that the walls of the arena had cages inside them, and there were large tigers caged inside. They were wearing black and gold armor, and quite heavy ones at that.
Suddenly, a stage comes up with a commentator on it. He grabs the microphone, and shouts, "Battle of the warrior! Start the fight!"
Cool. Just what I wanted. Even my dreams know my preferences.
The bars of the cage disappeared into thin air. A lump of raw meat landed near to me. It was a bait. Smelling the meat, the tigers in heavy armor rushed at it. One of them took the meat and swallowed it whole. Now they were looking for food elsewhere, and spotted me.
My dream was destabilizing. I can tell when it's so because it starts to slowly fade/blur around the edges and then disappears whole. So I rubbed my hands. The faster I rubbed, the more the dream became clear. At last when it was clear enough, I did the nose-pinch RC again. I could still breathe.
The tigers were now circling me. I summoned my katana from thin air, expecting it to be in my hand when I look at it again. I decided to name it Darkness. If you look upon the description, it fits, really. It slowly materializes. But now there is something wrong. It feel heavier than before. There are black flames already around it. What?! I didn't do anything yet. Also, it was harder to control than before. It started to vibrate a little. But when I touched the sword, I really felt a kind of sadness and a thirst for killing. When I put it away, it was gone, but as soon as I held it again, there was that feeling again. And all the time there were black flames wrapped around it. Strange. True I had it only once before, but why is it so weird?
All this time I was pondering about my sword, the tigers were standing still, as if time was frozen. Now everything snapped back to reality. Dream reality, more like. I decided to fight using my sword, and just ignore the unusual behavior.
One of them jumps at me. What was that guy thinking? I love special effects during my dreams, because they are the only times I get to do stuff I can not do in real life, and I try to take as much fun from them as possible, not start meditating and go around asking my DC's or even Leona about life. Get to the point, fighting. I am a pretty peaceful guy IRL, y'know.
The tiger is now an inch away from me. I slash him, but the only thing my eyes can see is my hand blurring for a millisecond, and then back to the normal position. So this is what it felt like to have supernatural powers at will. A deep slash appears on the tigers middle, and he drops, making weird noises in pain. I take pity on him, because even if he's a DC, I don't like killing animals. I look away from him, and back again. Now he is completely cured, and small as a kitty. He meows a thanks. I said out loud to him, "Now go away before I unleash my passion of kicking kittens."
Though I was kidding, he fled. I realized I couldn't fight the others. I just don't like animals in pain. So when I look back at the whole bunch, I expect there to be a large number of skilled ninjas. My best technique is the expectation technique, because it always works for me. Indeed, there are about twenty or so ninjas now. One of them comes at me, wielding a white katana, which is more like a dagger. I disappear, and appear behind him again. My favorite move. He hangs in mid-air for a second, and then his body splits cleanly in two. If I made them all like real men, there would have been a lot of mess, so I just make dust shadows. Fun to kill, and they don't make a mess.
His body turns to dust and disappears. Enraged at the fall of their comrade, they all rush at me in sets of five or four. Too easy. I was going to use flash step again, but at the last moment my sword felt real heavy and started to vibrate quote violently. What's wrong with this thing?
PS you might be wondering that how come my LDs are so long? Well, a picture's worth a thousand words, so divide all that text by thousand and you get a frame of the whole video clip. In short, it takes much more typing to describe the dream than it takes to experience it.
Now the ninjas are dangerously near me. But I don't care. I can fight without my sword as well. I punch the one in the front in the face, and he flies back a long distance, hitting a wall and slumping to the ground. I beat all of them in about five seconds, and that includes the other ninjas as well.
I was still in that same old Rome style arena. And the audience was still there. With the ninjas out of the way, I decided to check what was wrong with my sword. It was still emanating that dark fire, and still was heavy and vibrating. The more I looked, the more there was to see. To give you guys an idea of what my sword is like, here's a pic:



But my sword is pure black instead of shining metal like the one above. I had never looked at my sword up close. There was the silver line along it's middle, alright. But now near the hilt, and on the blade, were engraved small words, reading "Espada el Diablo", literally meaning "The Devil Sword". Something to do with Bleach, I thought.
Suddenly, a sharp pain pierces my back. I got shot! No wonder I did, standing in the middle of an arena looking at my sword. I looked at my attacker. He was Dante, from Devil May Cry.



What the HELL?! I DO NOT play Devil May Cry!
"Surprised?", he says. "I figured you would be pretty strong, having defeated Nero."
So that's what it was all about.
"Wait, you got the wrong....."
He suddenly fires on of his guns at me. It was a direct aim at my head. I use my other favorite, rather instinctive move, tilting my head slightly to one side. Why, you ask? Because it looks cool.
"I have got no time to kid around, and I don't take shit from anyone except cute girls. Just fight already."
"As you wish."
I stabilize my dream again, just to be sure. That way I won't drop unconscious in the middle of the fight.
"Just to warn you, I am not that Nero guy. I am way ahead of him."
I see. No matter, I will defeat this guy as well.
I wait for him to make the first move. He suddenly appears on my right. What?! He was in front of me! Wait, he is still there! Two of them? The main one fires two simultaneous bullets, which I barely dodge in time. The copy, which I took for as being weak, kicks me hard in my side. It hits me, and I go flying over, smash into a wall, and fall to the ground. What the hell is with this guy? It's not like I am that weak or something, but this is damn crazy.
Instantly, he is standing by my side. He points a gun to my chest.
"I told you, I am not Nero."
He fires, aiming squarely for my heart.
A flash of blinding white light follows the blast. In real slow motion, I see Leona, in a dark cape, fly between my a Dante. Moving lightning-fast, she grabs the bullet heading towards my head in mid-air with her finger and thumb, then grabs me and flash steps a distance away.
Now I notice that she is also wearing an armor of some sort. It's black and purple. Nice combo. She smacks me on the head.
"OW! What the hell do you think you're doing?"
"You are pathetic. Asking for a DC that powerful and getting beat up."
"Hey, I didn't summon him, he came by himself."
"Yeah, and you didn't long for a strong opponent all this time, did you?
"Well............."
"Tch...............what an idiot. Can't even control your own emotions."
She disappears from beside me. Now she is face to face with Dante. I get up to help, but my body is paining to much to even stand up. I feel a kind of vibrating and a burning sensation.
"Just stay where you are. I'll take care of this guy."
Hearing that, Dante says, "I'm sorry missy, but I don't really fight with girls. How 'bout we get a nice drink instead?'
"Don't underestimate me." she says, glaring at him. In third person, I saw her eyes contract to cat-like slits, her expression angry and cruel. Her eyes were red again.
She disappears from view. I deep wound appears on Dante's right hand. He drops his gun in pain.
"I told you, don't underestimate me."
Leona is behind him! He quick jumps back a good distance away, grinning.
"I see what you mean. Sorry, but I'll have to go all out against you. No hard feelings, 'kay?"
He disappears, and so does Leona. They are so damn fast, I can't even see them. All I see is just faint blurs, bursts of Dante's gun, and sparks of light. They finally stop. Dante is on one knee, panting. Leona is still unhurt, and is smiling. Dante gets up.
"I'll have to use my ultimate technique."
Suddenly, there are ten Dante-s all around Leona.
"This enables me to make copies of myself, each as strong as me."
They all open fire. But Leona is too fast for all of them. She defeats each and every single one of them in a flash.
"Copies, eh?"
Now there are countless Leona-s there. They all are moving independently. One of them says, "Then how about this? This is time control. Each and every one of these is me. That's because to you, I am here."
Another one says, "And I am also here."
Dante is standing in shock. He can't begin to comprehend anything. Time freezes. Or rather, Leona freezes time. But there are about 20 more Leona-s there. What the HELL?!
One of them says to me, "I am freezing time every time I freeze time, creating loops of time freezes. That way, each and everyone of myself is behaving independently, is controlled by me, and can attack more than twice at once. My ultimate technique."
This is too much for me to grasp. All of the Leona-s jump up, and send a huge wave of energy at Dante, who is frozen.
I can see the instant the shock waves hit, and then feel the power. One of the shock waves, when I was hit by it, split my body nearly in half when Leona used that move. To think a single person would receive over 20 of those. The explosion was unfathomable, and Dante disappears, totally wiped out by the extreme explosion.
I was losing control and vividness. I knew I couldn't hold on, the pain was too great. That was a powerful blow.
"Hey Leona! Just tell me one thing, are you my DG or someone else's as well?"
"Ah, you are worried after reading those posts on the forum, are you?"
"How'd you know that?!"
'I am your subconscious after all. But no, it's definitely not possible for two people to have the same Dream Master, thats coz DMs are manifestations of you personality."
"Really? Does that mean my personality is girl-like?"
'What an idiot! Don't you see any other quality besides being a girl? Never mind. I am only your subconscious. Yours only."
"Sounds more like a love confession, you know."
She punches me in the face. But there is a smile on her face.
"Thats another couple of week's of hell training for you!"
"Wha..........?"
I couldn't do anything anymore. I feel my whole body shaking, then vibrating violently. I try to rub my hands, but nothing happens. I feel like I am floating in a void. I don't remember anything after that. Dozed off to normal sleep, I guess.

Time to test the newfound Power!

WARNING : a VERY epic dream!

I was trying to WBTB. After waking up from a sleep for two hours and spending the last half hour on MILDing, I laid down at my bed. About after fifteen long minutes of staying still, I felt myself entering SP. At first, I only heard whispers, and something like wind blowing. Soon, I felt those waves of vibration going through my body. My hands and feet felt numb. I soon lost control over my limbs. Now I can see flecks of light darting here and there. They grow, join and multiply, forming geometric shapes and symbols. These shapes joined together to form objects. I could see a clock, a pillow, a pen and a hammer.
Now a whole scene forms around me. I am inside an old building, or perhaps a storehouse. Everything here is broken and dusty. The place is three floors high, and quite large. I concentrate more and more, and I can see everything in perfect detail now. Just to be sure, I rub my hands, and start to feel here and there. Now the experience becomes life-like.
I thought I might as well try to use some weapons. Bleach style. I concentrate on a sword, and it starts to form in my hands. It starts as a hilt of black color, then a silver guard materializes. After that, the blade forms. The blade is pure black, darker than anything you can imagine. Along it's middle runs a thin silver line. It extends, until it forms a curved, extremely thin black katana.
I decide to try this baby out. Nearby is a pillar made of marble. I swing my sword, and it passes right through it. The pillar remains intact for a second, and then a smooth cut appears, and it topples over. Amazing, like a warm knife through butter.
I decided to fight using this. I go out, expecting a large army to be outside the door. Indeed, I see a large number of monsters, perhaps a thousand or two, gathered in front of me. I grin. Battle time.
Like a mad warrior, I run up to the whole army. They scatter before my blade, totally powerless. Their pathetic iron armor is no match for my sword, and I slice through them easily. I stab, jab, cut, and dice them. It was epic.
There were still a lot of them. Good. I use magic again, and use it to merge fire with my blade. Suddenly, flames erupt from it. It looks as if my katana is on fire. I swing my sword, and everything within it's reach gets devoured by the unstoppable fire. I jab my sword into the ground, and flames spread from that point in a circle, instantly burning up anything within 20 meters radius.
I start to lose lucidity. Not good. Again, I focus on the environment, and do a reality check to make sure my lucidity remains high.
While I was stabilizing the dream, the monsters had rushed at me, and were a foot away from me. In a panic, I touched the tattoo on my arm. Everything pauses, as if time was frozen. Then my tattoo starts to spread throughout my entire body. A burst of ki energy follows my transformation, which is enough alone to knock down an elephant or two. I start to morph. I see my transformation in 3rd person view. My eyes become cat-like slits, and turn red. My nails turn into claws. I grow two inch long fangs.
Now my view is back to first person. I feel an amazing rush of energy, a feeling no drug can provide. With a speed that even my own eyes can not register, I cut through each and every one of my enemies. They all stand for a moment in shock, and then split neatly in two.
Too easy. I want more of a challenge. My hunger for blood can not be satisfied by these mere peons. I go inside a castle, expecting the ultimate boss to be there. I open the door, and find him already waiting for me. The guy is ---------



Nero from Devil may Cry!
I was surprised for a bit, because I don't really play DMC that much. But what the heck, as long as he puts up a good fight.
I rush towards him wielding my sword. He catches it with his bare hand. WHAT THE HELL?!
"Hmph......Amateur."
He brings out his own sword, a bright blue, beautifully curved one. He slashed at my head, but I dodge it in time. Concentrate! He disappears. I bring my sword to my back, successfully parrying his strike. I was so used to this move with the training from Leona. He throws his sword high into the air. I was surprised. He grins, and takes out double pistols, one in each hands, and opens fire.
What's with this guy?! His aim is absolutely precise. I deflect most of the bullets with my sword, and avoid the others. I see an opening. If I can just keep avoiding and deflecting his bullets, maybe I can come close enough to attack him directly.
I decide to test this theory. Swiftly moving and using a series of flash steps, I come up close to him. He fires five or so more bullets, all of which I neatly block with my sword. Finally, I am right in front of him. I expect him to be surprised, but instead I see a smile on his face.
"Like I said......Amateur!"
Oh Shit! I had forgotten about his sword. He drops his gun, and his sword, which had been air-borne all this time, falls right into his hands. He blocks my to-be-fatal slash with it. I grin.
"You're the amateur here."
I put my palm to the unsharpened side of my blade, and give it a little push. A huge shock wave comes out of my katana, severing his sword in half. The whole castle collapses. He is surprised. The top half of his sword falls down, and he can not see anyone there. I had flash stepped behind him.
I say, "Like you said, amateur!"
I pierce his back, and then slice it, so that his whole body is cut in half. He turns to dust and melts away.
Man, that was an exhausting fight. My vision starts to fade. But I am too tired to do anything, and it looked like my LD time was over. I tried to spin, but it didn't work, and the dream faded.

Leona = Vampire............. = ME?!!



Rating : ★★★★★

Note : This is a more detailed version of my previous post in the Lucid Experiences section.

Fragment : I am riding the bus home. The whole bus is empty. There is a raging storm outside. I take out a cigarette, and take a puff from it.

Fragment : I am on an endless bridge. Walking. The bridge never ends. No purpose, no goal. Just walking ahead.

I was on an ocean liner, travelling to Hawaii for some reason. The view was beautiful. There was the sea all around me. I suddenly feel the urge to go to the bathroom. I find the ships toilet, and go inside. It was quite spacious, and exotically decorated to a light pink tint. I found it luxurious. I found the door to a stall, and
AHHHHHHHH!!!!!
Inside was a man, no a zombie. He had one arm missing, and blood was gushing out of his mouth.



I ran back, and now was on a tropical island, with a lush forest, standing in the middle of the sea. Shit! Trapped! Sea on all sides! Anyways, I run away, but the zombie is still chasing me with that horrible limp of his. I went into the thick forest, hoping to find some cover. Bad idea. Now I can not find my way out. Plus it is so dark here that I can not see a thing. I can only listen to sounds. There are some incomprehensible sounds, but nothing else. I wait suspiciously, but nothing happens. So I walk in a random direction, hoping to get out of here. As soon as I took a step, the zombie jumped at me. I ran back, and somehow could see everything better than before.
Now, there is a whole bunch of monsters, including ogres, chimeras, and every other disgusting monster you can imagine. The absurdness of the situation dawns upon me, and I become lucid. All the monsters suddenly charge at me. Too easy. I use super speed, that their eyes cannot follow. I disappear, and reappear behind them. There is a pause, and they slump to the ground, unconscious. Being used to Leona's speed and strength, these guys are small fry for me.
There is still a large number left. Attack in numbers, huh? I take a pill out of my pocket, and flash step right into their middle. I quickly plant the pill in the ground, and flash step again to a good distance away. I snap my fingers, and the pill suddenly blows up, with a blast that could have turned a mansion into a pile of rubble.
No go. I have killed a lot of them, but they don't stop coming. I need more destructive power. I use magic again, and those rings appear on my wrists. They are black rings, outlined with silver and having symbols inside, each standing for a different magic power. But these small rings are small scale only. So I put my left hand closer to the rind on my left wrist, imagine it sticking into it, and pull it away, making the rings larger. Now they start to turn and revolve around me. The symbols inside them start to rotate. There are ALWAYS the same six symbols ; fire, water, earth, air, light and darkness. Trust me, I have drawn them in my DJ upon waking up, and Googled it. They were that because I am greatly fond of those symbols, so they were bound to appear there.
My vision starts to fade. Oh shit! Got too excited! I calm myself down, touch here and there, and concentrate on the environment to stabilize the whole dream. I am successful.
I touch the light symbol, and immediately, my whole body starts to glow. Then a bright golden hemisphere starts to expand from me, engulfing everything. The monsters are twitching in pain. The light covers the whole island. It blinds them and tears them apart.



Then I touch the darkness symbol. A wave of pure darkness follows the light. It eats up anything and everything it touches. Or rather, wipes it away, leaving not a single trace.
Then the hemisphere of light starts to shrink. It vanishes soon. Now I can see blood and dead bodies every where. But they are still coming in large numbers. What THE hell?
I have no time to react. They grab my legs and arms, preventing movement. One of them, a guy with a shark's head, bites my foot. Ahhhh!! Another one drives his horn deep into my stomach. Blood is pouring freely out of my wounds, and I cough out some of it.
I was so embarrassed, caught up in the same situation again. And again, there was that flash of white light, and I found myself beside Leona once again. But this time, she did not defeat my enemies, merely rescued me.
"You still have a lot to learn. And here I thought you were doing pretty well. Can't you tell they are all illusions?"
"What are you talking about?"
"Come on, a number of monster that survive double magic attacks, and at that level? Surely even you had noticed."
"Oh yeah!"
"You didn't notice, did you? Hmph. See that small guy over there, the one in black robes? He's the main one."
"I see."
Summon a sniper rifle, one that seems made by aliens. I aim quickly, and fire. A blue ball of energy flows out at a great speed and hits the guy squarely on the head, blowing his head off. At once, all of the monsters disappear, by turning into dust and being blown away.
"Phew. Thanks Leona!"
She moves closer too me, with this seductive look in her eyes. We are alone here in the building. Weren't we on an island in the middle of the sea? Oh well. She moves closer to me. I feel myself completely numb, unable to move. I was mesmerized. She puts her hand on my cheek, bringing me closer. I close my eyes. I could feel her warm breath. And then, I feel a sharp pain in my neck!
I open my eyes, and see that she bit me. I could see my own blood pouring out of the wound in my neck. There was this amazing pain there. I pulled away.



"What the HELL do you think you are doing?!"
"I am sick of watching you getting beat up and coming to save you all the time. That's why I have decided to give you some of my powers."
"Some of.......your powers?"
"Yeah. I just made you a vampire."
"Vam.......wait, WHAT?!"
"Yeah, what's there to be shocked? In fact, don't you feel something in your body?"
As soon as she says it, I became aware of a burning sensation in my neck, where there were two holes, that looked like they were made by fangs. Then I felt a VERY hot liquid moving down my neck, into my veins, then into my arms, and finally my whole body. I writhe and twist horribly in pain. The pain was very realistic, and agonizing. After what seemed like ages, the pain finally stopped. I looked at my hands and feet, and they were perfectly normal (or as normal as they could be in a dream). And now, I feel a rush of excitement. My body feels very light, and my movements become much more faster, more powerful and smoother. It was an amazing feeling, better than steroids.
"Well, now you're a vampire."
I am still too shocked to grasp anything.
"But.....wait a minute, I thought only vampires could turn others into vampires. And what's with the neck biting and drinking blood and whatever?"
"Ah, about that. I guess I haven't really showed you my true form yet, have I?"
"True.......WHAT?!"
Then she stands up, and I notice for the first time, a vivid tattoo on her arm. She suddenly puts her finger to it, and it stars to expand, until it consumes her own body. After a few moments, she turns into a flying monster, one with fangs and wings and those narrow, slit-like eyes. I was either too shocked or excited by this, and I was slowly losing control. Maybe she sensed it, and she shouts, "To turn into a vampire, just touch the tattoo on you arm!" And then, the dream fades.

Task of the month for May.

Rating : ★★★☆☆

Basic Task: Give someone a flower.
Advanced Task: Skydive from a skyscraper.

I am having a non-lucid dream. I dreamed that I was a runaway from a prison, with a dead-or-alive demand for me. Cops are running behind me. I don't have any weapons. I run up near a military vehicle, which suddenly switches itself on. It is a tank. The barrel of the tank aims at me. The cops catch up. They grab my arms and force me to stand there, waiting for the fatal bomb. It fires. In slow motion, I see it coming. It is more like a rocket launcher rocket. It hits my middle. A deafening explosion, an extreme pain, and everything is gone.


I wake up. I think, "Thank goodness, it was just a dream. How the heck didn't I become lucid?" I look around. I am in my room. Out of habit, I pinch my nose. I can still breathe! No, wait a minute! I look at my hands. There is no palm, just my wrist and a dozen fingers floating in air. So it is a dream. I get up, and concentrate on the environment. My vision sharpens. I can not see anything, because it's all dark. Usually, I sleep with so much darkness that I can sometimes not tell the difference when I open my eyes and close them. That make me more comfortable, though. I start out of the room, open the door, and find myself on the roof of a building.

I was at the top of the World Trade Center. Remembering the task of the month, I summoned some parachutes for me and some of my friends, who somehow happened to be there. We all run far back, and I see that my shoes have now become roller blades. All for the better, I thought. We speed towards the end, but there was a fence type barrier, almost two meters high, that protected people from falling. At the last moment, I do a back flip, flawlessly avoiding it.
I am in mid-air, and rushing toward the ground. The wind was holding me up, slowing my fall. It was amazing, with the wind against my face and through my clothes. I decide to try some acrobatic tricks, but I find that it is quite hard to move about. All I manage is to roll about a bit.
Somehow, the ground was still far away. Then one of my friends comes over to help me with tricks in mid-air. She looks like a pro, doing back flips and all kinda weird stuff that I would only manage in a lucid and on the ground. She teaches me the basics of using the air resistance and adjusting angles and such, and pretty soon I am able to do some quite impressive moves. I thank her for that, and suddenly the basic task clicks on in my mind. I look for a flower in my pocket, but all I find is a doll of a clown. I look desperately for a flower elsewhere, and spot one little decoration rose in the breast pocket of my tuxedo. I take it out, and it's still fresh. I give her the flower, telling her that it was a token of appreciation. She looks delighted by it, and thanks me. Now that I have no more tasks, I look around. I am still falling, but somehow we are at the Mount Everest. In fact, I am right on top of it. I am about to hit the ground, but I turn gravity off quickly, slowing my fall to a graceful landing.

I love being at the top of the mountain. It is so cold out here, but I am enjoying it. It feels like the top of the world. I summon a snowboard made out of pure, white ice. What a beautiful scene! Though I have never snowboarded IRL, I jump on the snowboard and start sliding. Soon, I gather a lot of speed. I am skating down the mountain, with all the white snow and the frosted trees and even a frozen lake surrounding me. The beauty of it takes my breath away. I skate for a long time, perhaps 30 or so minutes worth of lucid dreaming, enjoying the scenery. The dream becomes unstable soon after that, and I wake up.

Training Time!

Rating : ★★★★★

This was the roughest and most brutal training in my life. But, it's my DG we are talking about, after all.

I went to sleep at about 9 pm. I remember waking up from a series of dreams after the shorter REM periods, but I couldn't recall any of them, just a few fragments. At about 7 or so in the morning, I had this dream. I dreamed that I was in one of those bullet trains. I was travelling to my grandma's, in California, for some reason. She doesn't actually live there. I started to walk around the cabins for a bit of a stretch. No one minded me doing so. As I walked, I looked here and there and saw that each and everything was perfectly normal. One one of the seats, I saw my ex sitting there, busy talking to other people. Notice the dream sign. Not wanting to initiate a conversation, I hurry forward. I take just one more look, and see that her hair is bright blue, unlike the dark black IRL. I start to think about that. Various explanations offer themselves one after another, but none satisfies me.
I think hard about what it's like in real life, and the whole absurdness of the dream dawns on me. I become lucid. The train is moving quite fast. Looking out of the windows, I can see grassy fields. Quite a relaxing sight. Fearing that the dream would destabilize in a fast bullet train, I rub my hands, spin in a circle, and shout "Lucidity". The last one does not work. But the vision is good, so I continue my way through. One of my goals then was to produce tonnes of money. So I looked inside my back pocket, and find a wallet. Opening it, I see quite many $100 bills. I take out the whole bundle, which is now about double of what it looked like inside the wallet.
I notice that some of the people around me were looking at me suspiciously, perhaps even envious. I continue towards a restaurant, which somehow fits within the small train. Suddenly, I feel a sharp pain pierce my side, and after that, another piercing sensation in my back. Everyone in the train starts to scream, and exits hastily through two doors that would have been large enough for a castle front gate. Again, the pain was almost too much to bear. Never having been so deeply stabbed IRL whatsoever, I find the experience quite unpleasant. I grope around my back, and find a large knife buried deep inside it.
It felt that the knife had pierced my lungs, because I was having a hard time breathing. I look around for the attacker, and see a short, thin and bald man standing near me. He had a long scar running through the right part of his forehead, continuing through his temple, eyelids and cheek. He was looking at me with an evil grin, one that plainly says, "I'm gonna kill ya."
He grabs all of my money, and runs out of the train. I am too injured to even move, and fall to the ground. My blood is draining quickly. I am starting to black out. My vision blurs. It's all too painful, so much that death seems pleasant. I catch a glimpse of a fast movement, a moving sensation, and a flash of blue, before losing consciousness.
I regain consciousness. I appear to be in a black void. I remember now, someone stabbed me in a lucid. I realize that I am lying on my bed, concluding that I have woken up and still have my eyes closed. I open my eyes, and see bright sunlight. What the hell, since when was I sleeping outdoors? I realize that I am sleeping in a camping bed, with Leona beside me. A sudden, yet mysterious joy fills me. I am happy to see her again.
I ask, " Hey, Leona. Where am I? How did I get here?"
She says, "Well, you remember that you were stabbed pretty bad, right? That man ran off as soon as he got the money. I found you though, slumped on the ground like some dead rat."
"I see, so you brought me here?"
"No, it was my long-lost twin. Of course I did! Are men really that stupid?"
"Well, not really......."
"Never mind. Now, how do you feel? You can have weakness after injuries in a dream too, you know."
"Now that you mention it, I don't feel a thing! Thanks!"
"Don't mention it. Well, you seem pretty amateur at controlling your dream body. I think you need some training."
"That would be great! I will start right now!"
Little did I know that I was in for a surprise.
I get out of the bed, and Leona leads me to an open area. It was quite relaxing, with the scenery and the cool air. Leona was to be my opponent in training. She told me that we should first practice hand to hand combat. She stands at a spot, with a mischievous little smile that says, "Come at me with all you got."
Not wanting to waste my LD time, I stabilize the dream, and rush at her with all my might. I know she won't be an easy opponent, but what the heck. I try to deliver a punch at her face, but she dodges it with a simple tilting of her head, something like an amused expression. I knew that would happen, so I try to surprise her with a second one right after the first, hoping to connect with her stomach. She is just standing, and I am thinking, "Wow, I actually got her this time!", but all I feel is air.
A voice comes from behind me. "I know you through and through, your martial art is good, but it won't work against me." Instinctively, I round-house kick, but again, she easily dodges it.
"Come on! Don't tell me thats all you got!"
I tense my lower muscles, and deliver rapid kicks at her head. They were fast. Much more than real life. But again she dodges them like she is being attacked in slow motion.
Again, she disappears from my view, and again, appears behind me.
"Heh, you are slow, I got time to yawn."
I try to counter attack, but she grabs my wrist, and delivers a swift kick to my back, that knocks the wind out of me.
"Thats just the beginning, I didn't really hit you."
I get up, recover my balance, and charge at her again. I feint a punch at her, which she tries to avoid. I stop about half-way, which leaves her standing in an awkward position to avoid my punch. Seeing my opportunity, I try a back flip kick, aiming for the chin. I feel my foot hit something, and get real excited. Finally! Managed to hit her.
"Very good, but the thing you are hitting is a tree branch."
I look around, and see her right beside me. She has this glint in her eyes, and her pupils have become cat-like, narrow and long. Now I think about it, it could have been something related to vampires. Not giving me a chance to counter, she grabs my face, and throws me towards the opposite side. I am going so fast, what incredible power! I can't even righten myself, I feel helpless, with the sheer force of the throw. I crash into trees, breaking branches, tearing vines and messing up leaves. I pass through all of them, they can't stop me. I pass right through a bunch of trees, and finally collide into a stone rock. I hit it, bounce back a foot or two the way I had come. Such was the force I struck the rock with. I am sure that you all know how painful that is, so I won't go much into the feelings section. But every feeling was absolutely real. And painful. >_<
The collision made a crack in the rock. It felt as if a rib or two had broken. But still, I could fight. I look in my pocket for a pill, and a hand grabs my fist. Leona is there. Whoa! She traveled all that distance in a flash? She says, "No pills or cheap tricks, only your body."
I quickly step back a distance, fearing an attack again. I need to calm down. This is just a dream. No, it's MY dream. I can do anything here. Nothing is superior than me here. I focus my thoughts. I have to have greater speed. I need to be quicker.
As I focus my thoughts, a silver and black aura starts to emanate from me. I focus on my surroundings, to clear my vision. The aura is flowing out of me, like dark fire. I suddenly feel my body is a lot lighter, and my senses much sharper. It was a pleasant feeling, but I couldn't afford to get excited. The aura around me is thickening. Leona smiles.
"Now that's what I am talking about! Let me show you.....what is meant by 'power' !!"
She disappears. No, not this time, I think. With raw instinct as my guide, I catch her punch in mid-air, which would have hit my head. The force delivered to my hand is so strong that the ground beneath my feet gets depressed, and I sink an inch or two. Seeing an opening here, I use my other hand to punch her side.
With her still in my hand, she grabs my arm, so that one hand is trapped in mine, and the other is near my elbow. With me acting as a support, she jumps up, and lands behind me, making a full 180 degree turn in air. You know, the one you see in Jackie Chan movies. This happened in 2 seconds. Takes longer to explain it, tho.
I am taken by surprise with this move, but can still follow whats going on. The dream starts to destabilize. No! I have to land at least one hit! Leona tries to axe kick my head, but I block it with my arms. I am still fighting with her behind me, don't remember why, perhaps because it was more of a challenge. She tries to punch my head, but I tilt it again, causing the punch to fly past my ear. I grab her hand, turn around, and with surprising speed, direct a punch at her face. Her eyes are wide open, and she is defenseless. I stop my punch half an inch from her face, and as it stops, the wind of the punch moves her hair. She is totally surprised.
"Come on, you don't think I would really hit you, do you?"
"Heh, guess not. Well, good work for today. You definitely got me there, and I would have been in trouble if you had hit me. But this is only one hit, you still have far to go."
"Aw, man. Can't you be a little optimistic?"
She smiles, and soon the dream fades.

Here are, in random order, the Tasks of the Year I have completed so far.

The Apocalypse!

Rating : ★★★☆☆

I was in a bar, drinking some beer. My friend had given me an mp3 player as a gift yesterday, and in the dream I thought to check it out again. I took out the player, and was examining it. Then suddenly my eyes fell upon my fingers, there were only three! Two of them were simply not there, only empty holes for them. I became lucid. Apparently, I remembered the Apocalypse documentary I had watched right before sleeping, and I thought, what would it be like to actually be during the Apocalypse? And then I hear a resounding explosion. I look out of the window of my house (don't know how I got there) and see all the houses and shops shaking violently and crumbling. Then there spreads this huge fire, coming towards my direction. I try to run away (again I don't know how i got to the ground, my house is six floors up!) but a voice tells me that it is useless to run. I am semi-lucid and somewhat know that it is a dream, and I can feel everything I am touching, but I just can't stop the apocalypse. Suddenly, a huge hole opens directly below my feet, and I fall into it, falling for a LONG time, and never hit the ground, and woke up sometime later.

The Grail Mess-Up

Rating : ★★★★☆



I had an FA after waking up from a dream.I looked around my house and saw my room, exactly as it is. Before I went to bed, I told to myself, if I am in an FA, I will remember to do the TotY. Thats why I realized I have to do this task. I exit my house through the window, and start to fly, by shape shifting and growing a pair of wings. I fly low, for the fear of losing lucidity, and do some clarification techniques along the way. Now that my vision is perfectly clear, I concentrate on boosting my speed. I somehow fly to Rome, and see a normal church, nothing special. I am not a Christian, but I think, What the heck, it's just a dream! So I go in through the door, and start looking for DCs who can tell me where the Holy Grail is supposed to be. I encounter some weird DCs, , but then I finally find an old man all dressed up like he was the leader there. So I go to him, and ask him, "Excuse me, but could you tell me where the Holy Grail is?" He says, "The quest for the Holy Grail is an index of the most complicated plots co-occurring within a series of brilliant minds combined to form a particulate of moisture." This is an exact quote. I reply, 'That doesn't even make sense!" He replies, "A bear must be bound before it can swim, so be it." "But that doesn't make sense either! Can't you at least point to where it is?" He point to a perfectly normal wall, and says, "What appears is not what it is." Finally, something sensible. I say thanks and run up to the wall, and start tapping it. It sounds like it is not solid, but there something behind it, like a passage. So I look in my pocket, and find a grenade (what??) and place it near the wall and wait for it to blow up the wall. Somehow I didn't run away, and the blast didn't even hurt me. I see a dark passageway, lit only by flaming torches. I follow the passage way to a door and upon opening it, I see and even older room, which is lit only by a single torch. I cross over to the other side, and see something like a safe in the wall. There was a notice on the wall beside it, reading "The key is hidden in this sentence, "All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others." Enough with stupid quotes! I look in my pocket again, and take out a laser pen, the type you see in movies that can cut a safe by a laser beam. After a long and tiring search for batteries in the old room, I finally locate them in a small but visible hole in the ground. At last, I turn on the damn thing, and bust my way through the safe. Now I see a glass cup, something like a glass trophy, with the words HOLY GRAEL engraved on the bottom, and enclosed in a thin glass case. I carefully smash the glass case, and somehow, there is a bottle of fresh and cold water beside it now. I hurriedly pour the water in the grail, and drink from it. What a refreshing.....poof! fall onto the ground, unconscious. Thats the last thing I remember of the dream. Well, completed the TotY, but didn't get to enjoy the drink after all the hard work I put in.

Reliving the Dinosaur Age.

Rating : ★★★★☆



Completed another task of the year last night. I woke up in the middle of the night, and had barely moved. So I tried to FILD, moving my fingers very slowly. This helped me remain in a conscious state. Soon, I started to feel vibrations or waves going throughout my body. I had experienced SP before, and was not too bothered by this feelings. I could see some Chinese or perhaps Japanese characters moving about me. I recognized only one of them, the symbol of fire. It was in Chinese. I couldn't figure out the rest of them. They started to revolve around me, going faster and faster until they were a blur. My body was falling into it, and I started to shudder violently. After a minute or so, it stopped. I could see nothing. I was in a black void. I thought of where I want to go, and remembered the ToTY thanks to the MILD I had done before sleeping. I closed my eyes, and imagined a pre-historic forest, with dinosaurs and wild tress and reptilian birds.
I slowly opened my dream eyes, and found myself on a grassy mountain. It was cool here. I could see the sun in the distance, but it looked different somehow. Perhaps smaller and a little brighter.
A large bird comes at me from nowhere, screeching and clawing at me. What a nuisance. I concentrate on forming an invisible force field around me. I was successful, the bird crashes into it and falls, before going away in anger. I look around and concentrate on the environment, to clarify the dream. The longer I look, the more there is to look. There are many wild trees around, and I can see a beautiful blue lake in the distance. The air smells of nature, and the environment is filled with exotic sounds, some of which I cannot identify. The mountain I am standing on is quite high, and I notice a cave behind me. I use the inside-the-cave method, the ancestor of behind-the-door, to bring out Leona. I call out for her, and she comes out. She is wearing a trekking suit, one fit for a hike. I ask her, "Well, how am I supposed to complete the TotY now? I am in dinosaur age, but there is no meteorite."
"Well, why don't you cause the meteorite to hit?"
"Eh, I can do that?"
"*sigh* What an idiot."
She picks up a pebble, and throws it high into the air. She raises her hands, and around her hands appear a weird lettering, inside a ring. Kinda cool. She says "Enlarge!" and time freezes. Now she points her palms at the pebble, and move her palms away from each other, increasing the space between them. The pebble enlarges considerably, and she drops her hands, which breaks the spell, unfreezing time. The pebble falls to the ground below me, except now it is as big as a large truck.
"Cool! How'd ya do that?"
"Just do what I did. Remember to use your aura for the spell, or you won't be able to do it."
PS I don't believe in "Ki" or "Chakra" or "Inner Energy" or whatever it is, so I always use the word aura for it, which more or less satisfies me.
I take another pebble, but I can't just toss it in the air. I need it to go into space and THEN hit the earth. So I summoned up this gun I was watching on a documentary, that can send bullets into space because the velocity of the bullet is more than the escape velocity needed to escape the pull of the earth. It looks like an alien gun, with a dark black body and electric blue patterns on it. I insert the pebble, that has somehow become bullet shaped. I load, and fire it toward the sky. The pebble get smaller and smaller, until it is a point on the bright blue sky.
Focus, I thought. Whenever I use spells, I gather my energy into my hands, and then work it from there. Therefore I concentrate it into my wrists and palms, and my familiar bluish silver and black aura starts to some out of my hands like a small fire. Instantly, there appears the same ring around my wrists, with some wierd symbols revolving around it. The ring is black inside with silver lettering and outlines. Suddenly, time stops. The wind stops blowing, the trees stop waving, the birds freeze in mid-air. It seems as if it is all one big painting.
Now the pebble is stopped somewhere in space, I can modify it's size. A rectangle appears around the pebble, with pointers/handles at the sides, like the one you get in picture editing softwares. Just drag those little things around and the image will enlarge. There is a similar concept here. I use my hands and point at the pebble, and spread them apart, so that the pebble is enlarged. I continue until it will expand no longer. Now it looks like a real meteorite. I drop my hands, and time unfreezes. The meteorite starts to fall towards the ground. In a matter of seconds, it is very close to earth. But something is not right. Oh yeah! It is not on fire! What good is a meteorite without fire? I get a sudden idea from reading a manga. I draw the Kanji symbol for fire in the air, (yeah, you guessed it, I am a fan of those symbols ) and my fingers leave a hot red trail, so that the symbol is brightly shining in air. I kinda "throw" the symbol at the meteorite, or basically, cause the symbol to race towards the meteorite, and collide with it. The second it does, the whole meteorite erupts in flames. The flames are of abnormal size, and I can feel the heat from them, even kilometers away.
Leona makes an ice shield around us, (huh?!) to protect us from the heat. The meteorite is raging towards the earth. There is a deadly silence. Every living creature seems to have stunned, looking speechless at the large ball of flame. It is very close now, probably just a matter of seconds. Leona shouts, "Let's get out or we will burn too!"
"No, you go! I'll stay! I have to watch it hit!"
"Idiot. Well, I'll just go by myself, I am not fond of dying from a fake meteorite created by you."
She crouches, and touches the ground with her palm. A circle appears there, a dark black one. It starts from her wrist, and expands around her. "See ya! Or not..." she says, and jumps into the circle, teleporting to who-knows-where.
The meteorite is about to hit now. The heat burns up the trees and the bushes around me. The ice shield is still intact, but only just. With a resounding explosion, the meteorite hits. The blast was deafening. I felt the shockwave of it travel miles away to where I stood. Then came the heat of it. The ice shield couldn't hold on much longer. The meteorite throws up a mountain of dust, rock and ash, that form a mushroom cloud. The shield breaks. Now I feel the full heat of my own flames. So real. I can feel my body charring. It was agonizing. I couldn't do anything. And after some time, that felt like hours, I lose consciousness, and wake up.

Gladiator Battle?

Rating : ★★★★☆



I was now inside a roman stadium. I was never good at history, so I probably didn't know what was going on. There was an audience in high benches all around. There were gold fences around me, but the arena itself had a floor of dirt, mud and clay. In the distance I could see split air-conditioners all around. Good. I don't like being in hot weather anyways. I was wondering what to do, when I noticed that the walls of the arena had cages inside them, and there were large tigers caged inside. They were wearing black and gold armor, and quite heavy ones at that.
Suddenly, a stage comes up with a commentator on it. He grabs the microphone, and shouts, "Battle of the warrior! Start the fight!"
Cool. Just what I wanted. Even my dreams know my preferences.
The bars of the cage disappeared into thin air. A lump of raw meat landed near to me. It was a bait. Smelling the meat, the tigers in heavy armor rushed at it. One of them took the meat and swallowed it whole. Now they were looking for food elsewhere, and spotted me.
My dream was destabilizing. I can tell when it's so because it starts to slowly fade/blur around the edges and then disappears whole. So I rubbed my hands. The faster I rubbed, the more the dream became clear. At last when it was clear enough, I did the nose-pinch RC again. I could still breathe.
The tigers were now circling me. I summoned my katana from thin air, expecting it to be in my hand when I look at it again. It slowly materializes. But now there is something wrong. It feel heavier than before. There are black flames already around it. What?! I didn't do anything yet. Also, it was harder to control than before. It started to vibrate a little. But when I touched the sword, I really felt a kind of sadness and a thirst for killing. When I put it away, it was gone, but as soon as I held it again, there was that feeling again. And all the time there were black flames wrapped around it. Strange. True I had it only once before, but why is it so weird?
All this time I was pondering about my sword, the tigers were standing still, as if time was frozen. Now everything snapped back to reality. Dream reality, more like. I decided to fight using my sword, and just ignore the unusual behavior.
One of them jumps at me. What was that guy thinking? I love special effects during my dreams, because they are the only times I get to do stuff I can not do in real life, and I try to take as much fun from them as possible, not start meditating and go around asking my DC's or even Leona about life. Get to the point, fighting. I am a pretty peaceful guy IRL, y'know.
The tiger is now an inch away from me. I slash him, but the only thing my eyes can see is my hand blurring for a millisecond, and then back to the normal position. So this is what it felt like to have supernatural powers at will. A deep slash appears on the tigers middle, and he drops, making weird noises in pain. I take pity on him, because even if he's a DC, I don't like killing animals. I look away from him, and back again. Now he is completely cured, and small as a kitty. He meows a thanks. I said out loud to him, "Now go away before I unleash my passion of kicking kittens."
Though I was kidding, he fled. I realized I couldn't fight the others. I just don't like animals in pain. So when I look back at the whole bunch, I expect there to be a large number of skilled ninjas. My best technique is the expectation technique, because it always works for me. Indeed, there are about twenty or so ninjas now. One of them comes at me, wielding a white katana. I disappear, and appear behind him again. My favorite move. He hangs in mid-air for a second, and then his body splits cleanly in two. If I made them all like real men, there would have been a lot of mess, so I just make dust shadows. Fun to kill, and they don't make a mess.

Neil Armstrong Pwned....

Rating : ★★★★☆

Date : 25th May, 2010



I was in a space craft cabin. Everything was very clean and tidy, as well as neatly arranged. I was wearing a space suit. Somehow, I felt like I was familiar with all the weird vuttons and knobs in front of me. There was a middle-aged lady sitting beside me at the controls. I knew it was Neil Armstrong.
I hear a voice saying, "Ten seconds to experimental quick spatial jump. Please remain fixed to your toilet seats." (again, an exact quote.)
I find this comment quite normal. A large number appears in mid-air, displaying 15 seconds remaining. I justify it as a 3D projection, a hologram. The countdown starts. 15......16........100........31.......3#......6%.. ....O_O PS this is an exact reference. Including the "O_O" thing.
I become lucid. I start to look around, trying to increase the detail. I could see a large screen, showing odd symbols and shapes in green in front of me. On my left was a coffee table, fully laid out. On my right was Neil Armstrong. He was back to a man now.
I realize that we are at the moon already. Neil realizes this as I do as well. We both look into each other's eyes for a moment, and suddenly dash for the exit. The exit is made for only one person, and we both cram it up, getting stuck. I force myself out. Now I can see a ladder descending into the moon, but it looked more like a ladder you see in game shows, made of plastic and quite large, with obstacles in between to keep me from getting down.
Neil was here as well. We both started going down the ladder. It's like a race, but it was fun. Now my view was like a game screen, and everything became cartoonish. The ladder was yolk yellow color. On the sides, for each participant of the race, there are small bombs, to throw at one another. I pick up a bright blue grenade, and throw it at him. He ducks, and shouts, "You missed!"
But the grenade falls instead on his ammunition. He realizes what's going on, but is too late too stop it. The grenade detonates. There is an average blast, but now the grenade the closest to it also blows up. This causes a huge chain reaction, blowing all the way to the end at his side. He looks at me in surprise. I grin.
I use flash step to get to the end. Zap! I am a LOT closer. Another ZAP! And I am at the end. Neil shouts, "Hey! No fair!"
"Thats what you get for being a DC, dumbass!"
I am now at the moon. Neil takes sometime to get to the bottom. I beat him! Completed another TotY! I was enjoying the landscape. The more I looked, the more there was to see. There was a whole colony of people, living under a huge dome. At the center of the glass dome, there was a huge tree, going a mile into the sky. It was all magnificent, in contrast to the black and silver landscape of the moon. In the dome, I could see shops, houses, factories. Generally, a whole city. There were people bustling here and there.
I hear a lone wolf's howl. I was really enjoying myself here. I lose my lucidity to the landscape.
I probably did something more, but I forgot because I lost lucidity. ^_^

How to make fire ; A tutorial by me. ^_^

Date : 30th May, 2010

Rating : ★★★☆☆



I was shopping outside with some of my friends. We were all going to a certain shop in the distance. The streets were quite busy with passersby. I noticed that one of my friends was wearing a black tee shirt. Seeing this, I did a reality check. I pinched my nose, and found that I could still breathe!
I become lucid. I stabilized my dream by rubbing my hands. The vision was life-like, and my lucidity was also very high. I looked around for stuff to do, and remembered the Task of the Year. I might as well try to teach those primate humans how to make fire. I walked into a large mall, thinking how to go to that era, and viola! A whole forest was in front of me. There were tall, dense trees all around me. I walked ahead, and after a while, I came to a lake. It was so peaceful and beautiful here. There were all sort of weird plants near the lake.
I spotted some monkey-like humans nearby. Good. I come near them. They seem to be scared of me. I yell out to them , "Hey! I am Max! Who are you guys?"
They replied, but in a strange language that I could not even begin to comprehend. What the heck. I guessed they wouldn't know how to make fire. I decided to try it.
I took a few twigs, and some flint stones that happened to be sitting nearby. I rubbed them together, and sparks flew out of it.
But the twigs didn't like up. Shit. This is taking too long. I used magic, and just used my fire ability to light up the twigs.
They were really surprised. The were scared to come close to the fire. But one of them bravely came up, and touched it. He yelled in pain. Seeing this, the other primates started playing with fire too. (shouldn't they be NOT coming near it, seeing one of them got burnt?)
One of them picked up a burning twig, and started to wave it in the air. All of the others did the same.
It was really amusing, watching them do this. Then a burning twig fell from the hands of one of the guys, and the grass caught fire. In an instant, the fire spread out to the whole forest, as if it was all kerosene or something.



They all started to shout out excitedly, as if they has never seen a fire before. There were really happy smiles on their faces. They spread out, each in a different direction, and started to chase the still spreading fire. Then they started to make little fires of their own, shooting out fireballs and lighting up trees. I was standing by, watching them play with fire.

Thats the last thing I remember, because I probably lost lucidity here, watching the whole scene.

Beach party with Moses!!

Rating : ★★★★☆

Date : 3rd June, 2010



I was on a beach party. The beach looked exactly like the image above, but there was also a cute little wooden beach house. I was along with five of my friends. All of us were in swim suits. I looked at mine. The were knee high drawstring trousers or something, colored blue, with a white image of a palm tree.
There were really fierce waves. I mean REALLY fierce. The wind was strong enough to pull us out of course, and the waves rose more than five meters high. It was a cloudy day, but the sun's rays were just visible through the gaps in the clouds.
I could hear a far off seagull's cry. We started to play beach volleyball, but the wind was too fierce and would cause the ball to go astray. Somehow, all of us found that extremely funny. We started to laugh, hard. We were laughing without stopping, without any particular reason except the ball's going off course. We laughed so much that it started to hurt my stomach, and tears came into my eyes. Finally, we hiccuped ourself to silence. Spontaneously, out of nowhere, I became lucid. Perhaps it was due to the fact that I live in a city in the middle of the desert, and that we rarely get such strong waves along the coast line. Whatever, now is not the time to wonder WHY I became lucid.
There wasn't really much scenery there for me to stabilize, but I did it anyways. I used all of my senses, including activating the sense of taste by tasting some sea water. When the dream was stable enough, I spun in a circle and rubbed my hands. The clarity was already pretty good, so it didn't have that much effect. But the experience was life like, or perhaps even more vivid than real life.
I walked around. I did not want to do something too exciting early in a dream, a golden rule of mine that works like a miracle. I used to instantly start smashing up stuff but it killed my lucid dreams, and not long after I learned my lesson and became more patient.
I walked up to my friends. One of them, a guy, said, "Hey, see those waves, Max? They seem pretty big. Think we will get a sale on those?"
Another one, a girl, replied, "Yeah right, everyone knows that summer sales are only on laptops. Besides, where are you gonna stash a surfing bear in that apartment of yours?"
"Hey," he replied, "at least it's not as big as your belly, it doesn't need an acupuncture every half hour."
I was laughing hard, again. But for the fear of losing my lucidity to their one-of-a-kind conversation, I intruded and said, upon suddenly remembering, "Guys, do you know where Moses is? The one who parted the sea?"
Every one started to gape at me, like I was mad or something. Another girl said, "Like. duh! Don't you know that he is one vacation in Hawaii right now? Man, you gotta buy some fashion magazines, you know that?"
"HUH?! Moses, the spiritual kinda guy, in a fashion magazine?! Are you kidding me?"
They all start to look at me weirdly again.
"Anyways, tell me which direction is Hawaii."
They look at me in even more surprise.
"Dude, this IS Hawaii."
"Ah, I see. So then where is Moses?"
"He is on the clearing around the forest. He was helpin' lil' kids to cross the ocean, you know. To make sure they don't fall into the clams at the bottom."
"Okay, thanks for the info."
I use the rope method to pull myself toward the end of the forest. I feel a tug around my waist, and I quickly transport to there. Then, I start to run, looking for Moses.
WHOOOSH!!! A loud sound came up from ahead of me. The ground started to rumble. The wind suddenly became a heck of a lot faster. I actually had to use telekinesis on myself, imagining me glued to the ground, to avoid flying away with the wind.
Then, the whole sea in front of me split apart.



Wait, wasn't there a condition? Shit. WAIT A FUCKIN' SECOND!!!
I snapped my fingers, and stopped time. I did that by imagining a movie being paused. Everything became perfectly skill, and a little blurred, or shadowed. I had suddenly remembered that Moses need to part the Reed sea, not jut any random beach.
I tried a trick I had never done before. I concentrated any summoned a large banner that could be poked in the ground. But before writing anything, I did a reality check, stabilized more, and rubbed my hands again. I am taking no chances.
I use my finger to write something up. But I see that I have written a jumble of random words that make no sense. No matter.
I cause the letters to morph and re arrange themselves, something like Tom Riddle (Voldemort) does in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. The words now read, "Welcome to REED sea!"
Not exactly what I wanted, but it was good enough. I planted in in the ground, and believed what it said.
I unfroze time. Now, the sea was blood red. Maybe something related to the similarity between "Reed" and "red".



Oh well, as long as it's a sea. The sea in now completely parted. Great! There goes another task of the year!
But, Moses seemed to be having some trouble keeping it parted like that. Don't know why, buyt I went there to help him.
I was standing on sand, which was supposed to the ocean bed. I built an invisible wall on both sides to keep the water from flowing in.
"Whew!" , said someone near to me. It was Moses! He was in a white robe, with his hood down so I couldn't see his face. He was also wearing a golden armor on one hand.
"Thanks for the help, kiddo. You could become a better Moses than me."
"No problem. Tell me, do you only go around parting seas and stuff?"
"No, but I am famous for it. Say, do you want a new dream guide?"
"Huh?!"
"Yeah, I came here to become your dream guide."
"Sorry, but I already have one."
"Oh, that vampire brat?"
"Yeah."
"But I am much greater than her. I can show you the mysteries of universe. I can lead you to the divine. I can make you spiritual. Your dreams will be the strong hold of good."
"Wow! Thats amazing. Leona never did that. Can you really do that stuff?"
"Of course I am. Who do you think I am?"
"Right. But the me something. Can you fight?"
"No, I am a good guy."
"Can you kill monsters?"
"No."
"Can you turn into a vampire?"
"No."
"Are you a hot young lady?"
"No, of course not! But that doesn't mean I am.........pleasurable." (PS sorry if anyone was offended by this, but as you know, it was just a dream, nothing else.)
"Sorry, but I am totally into women. Tell me one last thing."
"Yeah?"
"Do you know how to pilot combat space ships?"
"No, I don't."
"Sorry then, but you are just not my type. I will stick with Leona for now though. Come once in a while to give me some of that divine experience of yours, will ya?"
"Ah, that Leona. That mother fuc**ng bitc*h $/&^#!!!!!!"
"Whoa there! You're Moses. You are not suppose to curse like that. Only teenagers can do that."
"This is the 21st century, dude. So long, bi*ch!"
He disappears into thin air. Oh well. I have to wake up now, before I forget the task of the year. I force my real eyes open, something I can do even since I was not lucid dreaming, and wake up.

Finally got over my dry-spell.

So wheels WERE used.

Rating : ★★★★☆ (back to normal 5-star ratings. )

Date : 10th of June, 2010


I had this lucid dream after a bit of MILD and WBTB combined. I threw in a little FILD, too. Worked great.
This dream occurred after I had slipped into sleep. My WILD failed, but I got lucid nevertheless.

I was an archeologist. I was researching the Tomb of Tutankhamen. They said that whoever touched a certain stone on the grave died instantly. As this was a life threatening situation, we officials were sent by the FBI to research it for it's potential killing power, so that it could be used in weaponry. We arrived, with big, hunky men patrolling ahead of us as bodyguards. There were a few people with me. I remember seeing my friends dad, but the rest were all unfamiliar.
We walked towards the pyramid. Though it was bare desert all around us, it was extremely cold. We were all wearing fur coats. Something about earth's reversing polarity.
We went inside the pyramid. A group of paparazzi were following us, along with irritating media reporters. I think, "Damn paparazzi. Why are they spoiling my dream? Oh well." And I wave my hand. They disappear into nothingness. I did NOT become lucid. It's just that I have become so much used to LDing that this stuff happens.
I continued my way inside. A foul stench greeted me, something like badly maintained public toilets. I went along a dark passageway that was lit by only flaming torches. I went inside a a stone door. There it was. THE tomb.
The smell was unbelievable. It reeked of death and decay. It was toxic. No shit! We had forgotten oxygen masks! I go outside to get them, but now, I was actually in that period of time. I could see a dozen more pyramids and sculptures. There were people bustling here and there, all wearing nothing but a short cloth around their loins, and the women were wearing those.......things....you see in movies. White, old fashioned gowns with red necklaces.
It was a little weird, but I justified it as movie props. I asked a DC, "Excuse me, but, have you seen my car?"
"Sure. It's round the corner from here." "Thanks."
I went to his directed path. When I arrived, there were just an ice cream stand. Good. I was feeling hot from the running anyways. I ordered an ice cream. The attendant there told me that there was no electricity here in this past world, and that I would need to "contact the authorities". Bummer. :/
I saw a bunch of people walking by. They were talking excitedly, in a language I could not comprehend. Now I began to doubt reality. No way this could be real!
I became lucid. I did an RC, just to be sure. I was dreaming! Awesome! I calmed down. It's good to have a lucid dream after a dry spell, but I can't end it soon. I watched around a bit. There were many pyramids, but most were of sphinxes and Pharaohs. I saw a DC wearing a suit and went up to him.
"Excuse me, but where are the construction grounds?"
"93 Berthingale Street."
"Okay, thanks."
God, my DCs suck at directions. :/
I ripped open the fabric of time and space, creating a portal. It was my first time actually creating one. I jumped inside it, expecting myself to be at the place where pyramids were being built.
I succeeded. I was in a large, open area. There were many pyramids under constructions, and there were numerous slaves going at it. The typical thing you see in movies, you know. There were some leaders that were cracking whips at the slaves, forcing them to do the work. I saw a cart pulling up gold statues pass by me. Wait. I thought Egyptians didn't have the wheel? I ask the DC that, and she replies, "Well, that's the big deception. We use the wheel, but don't tell anyone about it. Insolent little brats."
And she walks away. I laughed to myself, and started to grow wings to fly. I was in the middle of the transformation, when I woke up because of falling from the bed.

Short lucid, but it's not my fault. -_-
