People are gathered under a green tent in a field up on a hillside. While walking towards it I look down at my hands. They look perfectly normal, but everything has that vivid, brighter-than-life feeling. I feel a rush of euphoria and become lucid.
My first action is to fly over the small town for a while before recalling the dragon task of the year. Taking in a deep breath I transform with willpower, staring at my shadow down on the ground. It twists and stretches, growing bat-like wings and a tail. The body and head expand and the shadow has spikes and horns as well.
Celebrating the transformation with a roar I unleash fire breath on the closest building, melting it into the ground. I decide to try increasing my mass by drawing in deep breaths and with each one the feeling of size and power increases. Feeling a bit power crazed, I start smashing a building with my arm, which is now a clawed wing.
As my destructive path leads through the town I notice a grate down into the sewers and can see they are filled with red lava created from the burning buildings.
The townspeople are understandably terrified, running around and screaming although my attacks are limited to the buildings rather than them. In the shadow of a half destroyed wall though, stands the people's salvation; a woman in a red dress. Silver high heels. Long strawberry blonde hair. She looks up at me with a wry smile. A satisfied, knowing look... you know that one women have that says 'you're going to do exactly what I want'.
It stops my rampage instantly.
I make a tiny beckoning gesture with a claw... or finger, unsure if my dragon form has already faded. She walks out of the shadows towards me and takes my hand, yeah, she has reverted me back to human form. I run my finger along the inside of her wrist. The skin feel so smooth. I want her, and yet, want to take my time over it. This is my dream, there is no rush.
One of the few still-standing houses is an old English Farmhouse on the hill at the top of the town. We start to walk towards it, still holding hands. We spoke, but I can't remember the conversation.
Inside the farmhouse a man in a suit ducks into one of two doors. Ahead of us in a thin spiral staircase formed of metal strips. I hesitate. "You go first, so I can admire your arse."
She takes the first two steps slowly, then runs. Damn! That girl can move in those heels...
I dash after her, managing to keep red dress in view, but unable to catch up. I have to hunch my shoulders to fit in the spiral stair cage.
As I reach the upstairs landing the girl slips into the closest door and it clicks shut behind her. I lose sight of her and feel a wave of anxiety. Shit, why didn't I just bang her in the street, it's a dream after all... Right. My dream. So we're just playing hide and seek. It's a game.
The room contains many people having a small party. Ignoring them I start to search in any place where a woman could hide.
False awakening. The bed is in a large greenhouse. All around are plants in pots growing up thin canes. I get up and start wandering around. There are people from RL standing around chatting. I'm still lucid and mentally kicking myself for the woman in the red dress getting away.
Then she walks up and grins at me. Not taking any chances this time I hug her tight and kiss her. (And then get down to business, but I'll spare you the details
)
