DV soulmate and an orphanage run by evil scientists
There's a lot I left out because these are long enough as it is. I may add pictures if I can figure out what to add.
I was back in high school, and I was in the school band (same teacher and classmates that I actually had). We were in an "outdoor classroom," and we were messing around before class started. There was a "magical" wishing well where lost fairy tale characters went to find help. Snow White and three dwarves showed up and asked where she could find seven orphans (apparently there's ten dwarves/orphans now). Cinderella showed up asking where the nearest mall was because she needed shoes. Some wicked witch saw all of this and became pissed off. All of the niceness and community service disgusted her. She was deceivingly beautiful with long red hair and a black/purple/green gauzy dress. She and her white horse went over to the well with a plate full of poisoned cookies. They were going to feign helplessness, but instead fell into the well. When they were rescued, they turned good. (Yeah, that's really corny.)
The teacher called us over to our seats for a performance. I was freaking out because I didn't know what we were playing, and I didn't even have an instrument. It was bad... I was wondering if I could get away without playing (or at least faking it), but then I remembered that performances count towards your grade. I was about to sit in the front row, but then figured I should sit in the last chair of the flute section since I had no idea what was going on. I tried to borrow a flute from the girl next to me (or any of the other flautists who were playing bassoon for that song), but as I was asking the girl, all of the music stopped and she started to whistle loudly. I guess that was her solo... The rest of the band started singing at that point, and I at least tried to lipsync. I don't remember the words exactly, but I think "red" was one of them.
I gave up and went inside a school building. I was in a class watching some cartoon fairy tales, but I couldn't concentrate at all. The guy next to me was talking while I drew all over his books with a sharpie. I felt bad because we were being so loud, but the rest of the class seemed unphased. I walked out of the room and explored the school a bit. It was a huge brick building with tall ceilings and at least ten stories. I went to the computer lab and logged on to DV. There was a person I kept seeing around who didn't have an avatar, and I couldn't see any of their posts. It's like they were an online ghost. There was something about that person that I felt drawn to. I had to find out who it was. I scoured the internet for information, but only found a picture of rabbits. That person had been looking for me too, and also found a picture of rabbits. He (?) couldn't see my avi or posts either. He came very close to finding my email address but was off by one letter. The whole thing was very weird...

I heard footsteps coming, so I bolted out the room. I nearly flew up the flights of stairs (while the nurse was telling me not to run) and after I had climbed up a tricky set of stairs (all banister and no steps), I ended up in the "off-limits" area of the school. It looked like my old house, and had a total of five stories. Every story looked the same, but there were slight atmospheric differences. The first two felt normal, the third had a blue tint, the fourth gave you goosebumps, and the fifth had red lighting and made the hair on your neck stand up. It was pretty creepy. In my mind I saw a group of scientists in white lab coats huddled around some blueprints for world domination or something. I sat in my old bedroom and watched the hallway. I felt people walking by, even though the most I could ever see was a brief shadowed figure. I climbed out the window and on to the roof. It was hard to pull myself up (deja vu!), but I was able to remember how I did it in a previous dream. I was only one story off the ground, and below me was my old backyard.
The house had two underground floors and three above ground. I think the underground ones were for the "bad" test subjects among other things that they wanted to hide from the world. The "third" floor (the ground floor) was for average test subjects with average results, the fourth floor was empty, and the fifth was for highly advanced test subjects with psionic powers (just like room 5 in V for Vendetta). I leaned over the edge of the roof and looked into a window. My friend Brittani was in that room, and I told her to come join me. She would have made it out, but I told her to shut the door so they wouldn't see her. I can't figure out if we weren't supposed to be in there at all, or if we were just sneaking around out of our rooms. Either way, we had to avoid being caught. The warden saw her trying to escape and carried her away. Britt was only on the third floor, and so she was expendable. I never saw her again, but I know something bad happened to her and that it was all my fault.
I huddled on the roof where they wouldn't see me, and I wept for my friend. As I was watching my shadow, it didn't do exactly everything that I did. I think a film director was taking footage of it for a movie I was in, and he had to edit my shadow to move exactly as he wanted it to. I could overhear the scientists inside talking about me, and how my progress has made their profits shoot through the sky. They were praising my abilities and said that I was the star pupil of the fifth floor. I have no idea what kind of tests they were doing on me. I climbed back in through a window and ran through the house and out the front door. I ran at least five miles in two minutes. I could hear a little girl narrating, "My legs were on fire but I kept running. I couldn't let them take me back to that awful place..." I saw her entire story played out in my mind, and it was then that I found out I was running from an all-girls orphanage. I was reliving her story, but at least I knew what to do.
I ran into a "hospital" that was just a floor of offices. Private investigators, lawyers, politicians and a nurse. I asked the nurse for a bandaid and some lotion, but she shooed me out. Next I had to find a fire station. Instead I found a cafeteria where my friends from the orphanage were hanging out. They were released because they didn't have any special abilities. They were glad to see me, but asked me to leave because I could get them in trouble. (I hope this part doesn't offend anybody.) The warden managed to find me and sent transgendered superheroes after me. They had the power of being transgendered, I guess. There were two pairs of them, both wearing a pink or blue lycra body suit. They shot beams of pink and blue at me, which I managed to avoid. I found out that one of the superheroes was the soulmate from DV I had been looking for, and we ran away together. I don't quite remember what else happened, but when the dream ended I was the Grim Reaper and my best friend was a bag of Cheerios.
