Nightmare

Are ya ready to get spooked? Cause Halloween came early this year. That's right, we got ourselves a  nightmare over here. A genuine, (subjectively) spooky nightmare. I very rarely get nightmares so I figure it would be fun to write about this one especially considering the fact that it's probably the scariest experience I've ever had. This "experience" involves me waking up and going to sleep both in and out of the dream which can get pretty confusing so to make things easier if a paragraph takes place in a Dream I'll label it as such. If a paragraph takes place in the Real World I'll label it as well. Keep in mind that generally, when I'm in a dream, I accept it as reality. Sometimes if I dream, wake up, then go back to sleep, I remember the dream as if it actually happened if it's realistic enough. This made my nightmare infinitely scarier. Now on to the dream.

Real World
I fell asleep at around 11pm with my alarm set for 7am so I could get ready for school.

Dream
I'm woken up to the sound of a gentle song. The song is the dominant sound in the otherwise silent night. I'm frozen still in my bed. The song is familiar, I don't know where I've heard it before, but I definitely remember it. For one reason or another, the song isn't one of comfort to me. It's rather the opposite. Listening to it triggers something inside of me. Like my body's telling me something is seriously wrong. I need to stop it. Exiting my bed, I see the source of the song, a music box sitting on my desk. I don't recognize it. It looks old and has a floral pattern. Further inspection reveals that the front of the box can be opened revealing a key in a slot. The key is rusted and has an old design. Turning it stops the music. Without the song, the room is silent. Too tired to question the nature of this situation, I return to my bed and go to sleep.

Real World
I awake to the sound of my phone going off. It's not my alarm but rather a notification from Facebook. It's 6 in the morning. My friend is asking my a question regarding homework we need to have done. I quickly answer then go back to sleep.

Dream
I wake up. Slowly opening my eyes reveals a pitch black figure, facing towards me, standing at the foot of my bed. It looks almost human, but with a large curved head and shoulders.
A poor recreation of the mysterious figure
It looks 7 feet tall. I pretend that I'm still asleep. Maybe it's just mum and my visions blurry. Still, being too scared to move, I stay still. It's hard. My hearts beating furiously. It's getting hard to steady my breathing but I have to try. I can't let them notice I'm awake. After what feels like an eternity, they start to move. I keep my eyes closed as I hear the loud thud each step makes, carrying with it the weight of a giant. The noise is getting farther away. Eventually it fades into the distance. Opening my eyes reveals my room is empty once again. 

It's around 6:30 in the morning. Normally Id go back to sleep but right now, I just need to get out of this room. Trying to get out of bed proves to be ridiculously difficult. It's like my whole body has lost its energy. I struggle to stand. I'm wobbly but I should be able to make it out of the room. As I take a step towards my door, using my bed for support, I hear a buzzing noise. There's a giant stuffed teddy bear sitting in front of my wardrobe. It's vibrating. It's so unnatural in the way it does it. Like its distorted, disconnected from the world. There's a creepy laugh coming from the bear. It's slowly getting louder. To top it all off, a distorted version of the song from earlier is now playing. Also slowly increasing in volume. At this point, I'm freaking the fuck out. I really need to leave the room as fast as possible. As I get closer to my door, I get dizzier. When I get really close, my eyes start to lock up, staring at the ceiling. My vision gets blurry and I'm the verge of vomiting. I try screaming for help but nothing comes out. It's like when you don't talk for a while and you have to cough to regain your voice except coughing isn't helping right now. I can't even let the slightest noise come out of my mouth. I'm voiceless.

I then start to hear it. The footsteps are returning. Their getting closer. I slowly make my way to my bed. Finally reaching it, I start to crawl across it towards my phone on the other side. I need to call someone, anyone. The foot steps are really close. I grab my phone. The battery's on 1%. As I attempt to unlock it, the phone runs out of power. The foot steps are just outside my room. The shadowy figure enters.

Real World
And then my alarm goes of and I wake up for real. Still kinda terrified, I investigate my room, trying to determine if I'm either in another dream or if the dream I just had was real. Eventually I come to the sane conclusion that I had a nightmare. Then life continued on as normal.

Or did it...

The answer is yes, yes it did.

Im back baby

You know how like in a lot of shows that have a large passage of time, the main character always seems to be wearing a dusty old cloak but you don't know its them until something takes off the hood of the cloak and reveals their face, well that's an accurate representation of me and this blog. Basically what I'm trying to say is that I'm wearing an old cloak... metaphorically because I don't own a real cloak (do blankets count?). So anyway it's been like a year since I last posted and I have legitimate reasons as to why.
1. I had wrote 2 other posts but I got half way through them and got bored so now their just half finished, I might finish them one day (probably not though).
2. I kinda just got bored of writing blog posts.
3. I haven't had any particularly interesting dreams in a while.
4. I'm a lazy piece of shit.
5. The fucking S and D keys on my computer only half work.
6. Fuck you I don't even have to explain myself your not my boss.
Ok well now that that's out of the way I should get to the dream. Also as I just mentioned, I had been getting bored of writing the posts. I think its cause I'd been writing in an objective point of view which was kinda boring. So I'm gonna try writing this one in a first personish kinda view. Idk what that means tbh I don't plan ahead. Keep in my that this means I will be writing as if I was currently in the dream. Oh yeah I had this dream like 3 months ago but like all of my dreams I wrote down key notes so I should be able to remember it pretty well. Now lets do this baby.

      Where am I? It's cold, very cold. I appear to be drowning... wait why the fuck am I drowning? Oh that's right, I jumped off the yacht. Why the fuck was I on a yacht and why the fuck did I have the urge to jump. That same urge is still with me, except now it's telling me to swim forward. Probably should swim up first though, cause like ya know, drowning wouldn't be very good.
     I rise to the surface of the water to catch my breath. Its the middle of the night and I appear to be near a rocky surface. I start to swim forward, away from the yacht, following that urge. My body's going numb fast, the cold already started to take its toll as I struggle to draw breath. Not much further now, I can feel it.
 
   There! off in the distance I see someone struggling to stay afloat. As I get closer I see its a young child. I feel like I can vaguely recognize this person. Do I know them? No that's not whats important, right now I need to focus on getting them somewhere safe. I reach the child and hold them while kicking my legs, keeping us both from sinking into a watery grave. "Try to hold onto my back while I swim us onto my boat".
   My swimming becomes sloppier and sloppier as I get closer to the yacht. I can't even feel my own body, and I was so looking forward towards another day without hypothermia and frostbite. Oh well, a few missing toes and fingers never hurt anyone. The kid on my back starts to shuffle, I think their only just now figuring out whats going on. Despite needing to focus on my swimming, I can not resist looking back for a glance of the person currently riding my back. Wait... oh god no... seriously, like fucking for real. It's fucking Koneko from Highschool DxD.
Koneko
     Fucking why. Why do I gotta deal with this weeb ass shit right now. Oh well, I'll just get her on the yacht then drop her off at the nearest hospital or some shit. Then I can chill out cause I got a mother fucking yacht. Wait, I have a mother fucking yacht. Holy shit that's cool. Does that mean I'm rich. Ok these are questions that will be answered once I drop this young teenage girl off. She's like 14 though so she might as well be twelve cause 14 year old kids are retarded.
    "Thomas!!!"
   Wait the fuck was that? It sounded like a... oh god please don't let it be true. I look up to see I'm close to the yacht. Sadly, waiting for me is a group of, well to put it simple, (and embarrassingly) Anime girls.

Ok I just want to mention before I continue the story that this dream was against my will. Trust me, I legitimately cringe just knowing that my brain decided to do this. Like seriously, Ive had romance themed dreams before, but not gay ass anime ones. Like why. Maybe I should just stop watching anime, cause like that might ensure nothing this disgusting happens again. Ok back to the dream.
  
   So now I've reached the ship and got Koneko on bored. She recovers uncomfortably fast and just ends up blending into the group of like 5 or 6 anime girls (which for simplicity I shall now refer to as waifu's). 
   "Ok well you guys can just like, not" I tell the waifu's.
   "Oh Thomas, your so funny" One of them replys
   "Seriously get the fuck off my yacht"
   "We'll be waiting for you in the bedroom" Another one says as the group starts to head towards the inside of my yacht and presumably the only bedroom.
   Well I can't be bothered dealing with that shit right now, so how bout I just take this opportunity to stare off into the ocean like I was in a music video or some shit. I mean how often do you get to do that. Oh shit there's even an aurora (google it) in the sky. That's pretty dope.
   I stare off for what seems like hours before deciding it's time to go to the sleep. FUCK!!! Koneko is standing right fucking behind me!. Has she been doing that the whole god damn time!. Fuck this I'm going to bed. Koneko follows right behind me as I enter the bedroom. There's 2 beds, one with all the waifu's on it, eagerly awaiting me and one with a T.V and xbox set up in front of it.
   "Come to bed with us Thomas"
   "lol fuck off"
   I proceed to play WWE 2k16 on the Xbox for an hour before finally drifting off into sleep.
  
   It's the next day. Me and the Waifu's have headed off into some carpentry place. I'm trying to build some weird ass shit but the instructions make literally no sense. Well this is fucking boring I guess I'll just wake up now.
   Oh... It's 8am, well it's the school holidays so fuck that shit I'm going back to sleep. Maybe this time I'll get a good dream.
   Ok where am I now? Oh god dammit. I'm back in the fucking bedroom again! Oh and the Waifu's are back on the bed again.
   "Thomas are we going to have the sex now?"
   "Are you ready to shut the fuck up now so I can play Xbox"
  I play some more WWE. This time I win the NXT championship. Fuck yeah that's like coming 2nd to last in the Olympics. Well time to sleep, maybe tomorrow will be interesting.
   
The next day goes past but I don't really remember anything about it. I probably did something boring anyway. Well It must of been some day cause I'm really fucking tired and out of energy. That bed across the room looks really fucking far away. Ehh fuck it.
   "Waifus move the fuck off the bed I'm gonna use this one"
   I collapse onto the bed though I'm lying horizontally instead of vertically. Fucking hell why is this bed so uncomfortable. Oh, probably because the Waifu's didn't move and now I'm lying on their legs. I'm sure this is someones fetish but it's not mine. It's also super fucking uncomfortable. Still, I don't have the energy to move. Fuck it I'm just gonna sleep.
   
   "Thomas cunt you there?"
   Wait was that Lachlan? Fuck what happened. I must of just blanked out. Oh yeah that's right. Me, the Waifu's and my friends Lachlan, Caleb and Brandon are walking towards a haunted mansion.
  "Yeah sorry Lachie I was just dozing off".
  "Sick as cunt you been busy all night?".
  "Fuck off Lachlan, like seriously don't talk for the rest of this trip, that goes for you too Caleb".
  "Ehhh fuck off" Replied Caleb.
  We've reached the mansion. It looks about as generic as a haunted mansion can look.
Do I look like I know what a Jpeg is?

   The door opens with a loud creek and everybody turns their flashlight. Why the fuck are we doing this again? Something about Lachlans past or some shit. Why the fuck do I care though? Oh well, maybe if I'm lucky, a ghost will kill the Waifu's. Well besides Koneko, she hasn't acted like a slut yet...yet. Speaking of which, all of the Waifu's are giving me a look.
   "Alright gang lets do a Scooby Doo and split up" I tell the group.
   "We'll go with Thomas" the Waifu's declare.
   "Lol no you won't, I'm going by myself".
   Alright well I've got 2 options here, I can go up the stairs and explore the upper floor where I'll probably get raped by a fucking ghost of a man from the 1800's or I can go downstairs and most likely see the ghost of a dead girl who was probably killed by the ghost from upstairs. Well If the little girl jumps me, I'll drop that mother fucker. So downstairs it is then.
   
   Ok so far this looks like a normal basement. A couple of boxes full of stupid shit. A dishwasher. And a ghost girl. Wait what. Oh fuck that's a ghost girl isn't it. Suddenly everything went white. I can see the inside of a theatre. Oh hey there's the ghost girl again. She's walking towards me. Uh getting a little closer there sweetheart. Ok now she's entering my safespace. I'm getting triggered.
   Just as sudden as it started, the vision ends. I'm sitting on the dirty basement floor. Alone. Well better go tell the gang what just happened.
   After explaining the situation, my friends decide that the only possible next move is to go look for the girl on the brand new Zombies map that got released on COD (not an actual map btw, this dream happened before the first DLC for Black Ops 3 was even announced). Personally I think their fucking retarded so me and the Waifu's go play some COD multiplayer back on the yacht.
   
  I'm back at the yacht playing COD. This is actually pretty fucking fun. I don't remember being so good. Oh well I ain't complaining.
  "Hey Thomas-Kun are you sure your friends will be alright?" a Waifu ask's
  "To be perfectly honest with you, I really don't care. Like I'm having fun here so please don't ruin this for me"
  We play for a while longer before another Waifu say's something similar to the first, adding that they may be in danger.
   "Ok you know what, fuck you guys, I'll go check up on them but then I'm gonna go back to playing multiplayer and having fun. Did I mention that I hate you all. Because I do".
   
   Ok so I'm in their zombies game. But like why am I really in it. Like why the fuck am I no longer sitting in front of a T.V. I'm literally in the fucking video game. God dammit this is retarded. Where am I anyway. It looks like a balcony. And that looks like my primary school over the balcony. Wow we are really fucking high up. Also why is my primary school part of the new zombies map? Fucking Treyarch.
Map kinda had this theme going on
     I can still see the minimap at the top right of my vision. Kinda annoying when its literally always there. Also why the fuck can I only see the first part of the map. Have they seriously not figured out how to progress further then the first part. It's like round 6 for god sake.
   "Tom what ya doing here" asked Caleb
   "Apparently solving your problems"
   "Nah we're good, we've got a crawler so the next round ain't gonna start" replied Lachlan
   "Well I'm gonna figure this shit out so I can go back to playing multiplayer cause I'm a fucking beast"
   A work bench catches my eye. It looks like it requires 3 items to be placed on it. They've already found the first. It doesn't take me long to find the others. Putting them together creates a broomstick. I think I know what this does but I need guinea pig to test it.
   "Oi Lachie mate I just figured out that the work bench gives ya super strong gun, I don't really want it so you can have it"
   Like a child, Lachlan runs towards the witches broom and equips it. He's now suddenly sitting on the broom, suspended in the air. Just as I thought, we gotta fly this shit straight to the next part of the level. I'm like if Stephen Hawking and Albert Einstein had a baby. I get on the broom, Caleb and Brandon soon follow. We start to fly off the balcony. It feels surprisingly natural considering the fact that I really should be shitting myself right now. Oh shit a bunch of people are at the first area. I guess the game lets you see people that are still stuck there. I flip them the bird cause fuck those losers.
   
   Well shit the witches broom apparently has a duration. Me and the Lads (and Brandon) all get off our brooms. We're at the playgrounds near the front of the School. While exploring I overhear Caleb and Brandon talking about a food place nearby.
   "Boy's lets go to this food place I'm fucking starving" I say.
   "No it's meant for when your low on health" all 3 of them reply at once.
   "I don't care I'm hungry".
   "NO"
   Oh shit. All our bickering distracted me. It's the next round and zombies are spawning in. There's a lot. The playground! If I get there I'll have the high ground. Luckily I manage to get up there pretty easily. From here, I manage to get a decent amount of kills despite having a simple rifle. Everything should be fine if we ke- oh god dammit seriously. Lachlan and Caleb both went down and need to be revived. Well I mean I could just let them die. They'll respawn next round anyway. Then again I do have quick revive. It would kinda be a waste not to use it. Ah fuck it. I'll save them both.

   I did not save them both. I managed to get Caleb but Lachlan was eaten alive. Eh that's like a 50% success rate. Better then nothing I suppose. Well rounds done anyway so Lachlans back. After some some sly use of words, I manage to convince them to go to the food place. I wonder why their so reluctant. Like its food. Huh the food place is where the dentist used to be. That's ironic... I think... still not entirely sure what the definition of ironic is.
   Oh dear lord. All around me I hear them. Everyone in the fucking restaurant is a social justice warrior (google it). Ok I'm just gonna ignore it and order some food.
   "Excuse can I please make an order to go" I ask the cashier.
   "Sure buckio, but first you gotta earn it".
   Oh for fucks sake. No, no this is stupid. Then again, I am rather hungry. Ok you know what, I'll "earn" my food. Then if it taste good enough, I'll know I made the right decision.
   "Ok friend, how do I earn my food?"
   "Simple, just head through the back door".
   
   I reluctantly do as he says and enter the back room, well I say room but its more like a really big tunnel heading down on a 45 degree angle. What the fuck kind of food place is this? Oh great there's a robot here as well. Lovely. He's standing next to a water slide that goes down the tunnel.
   "Hello, before you head down our fun slide, are you a boy or a girl?" he asks.
   "Why does that matter?"
   "We shall adjust your difficulty settings based on your gender"
   "So if I say I'm a girl, you'll make the challenge easier?"
   "Precisely"
   "I am a girl, I like girly things and have a vagina"
   "Ok difficulty settings set, please enjoy your trip down"
   As I'm heading down the slide, I flip off the robot.
   "I'm actually a boy ya mongrel"
   Holy shit that was funny. Also this challenge should be easier now. That's a bonus. Holy shit this is a long slide. It's also getting really cold. Seriously this a dodgy restaurant. I've reached the bottom. 

   It's like a small ice arena. Large blocks of ice pop up and down at random intervals. There's another dude here.
   "We're gonna fight, whoever wins gets to eat" he tells me.
   "That's retarded, your retarded and just because I don't like you, I will fight. Only so I can punch your teeth in. Seriously fuck you and this restaurant" I reply.
   Using the confusion of my opponent after hearing what I just said to my advantage, I charge at the guy. Oh FUCK he can shoot fire out of his arms. Narrowly, I avoid what would have been a fatal attack. I have to keep moving. Every time I try taking cover behind an ice block, he either melts it or it lowers back into the ground.
   "This is my favorite fight of the season"
   Wait what was that and why did it sound like me.
   "Yes I agree, it really follows the show, don't tell rule perfectly"
   Ok that was definitely my voice. Is this a fucking directors commentary? Why is there a fucking directors commentary going on. Seriously. This doesn't even make sense.
   "I really enjoy this part, where he gets punched in the fucking face"
   Wait wha- OH GOD MY FUCKING FACE. Fuck that burns. I can feel the barrage of strikes against by body. I'm being rag dolled. The food better be worth it. Ok I've got a plan. It's just gonna require the right timing. He kicks me, sending towards an ice block. I manage to back flip over it and use my momentum to super kick the block. It fly's towards my opponent at rapid speed. Fast enough that he can't dodge and it manages to knock him out upon impact.

   I climbed the staircase leading back up to the restaurant and am now seated at a table eating the food Ive won. It's good. Like really good. Like so good, I wanna play the game again so I can win some more.
   "Yo can I go for round two?" I yell
   "Of course sir, just go through the back door again" a waiter reply's.
   OK so I'm probably gonna have to go beat up another guy. Easy enough. The door opens with a creek and a sudden flash of white light passes though, blinding me. Fucking hell. I'm at the top of a snowy mountain. That door broke some law of physics. Not sure which one but it definitely broke it. Oh lovely. There's a kid dressed as Ash Ketchum here. I guess nobody told him it looks gay IRL.
Mr Ketchup himself 



   "OK contestants, you must win the race to earn your food" an announcer voice declares.
   "See ya at the finish line Old Geezer" the kid dressed as Ash (who I will now refer to as Mr Ketchup) says as he runs off.
   OK first of all, Old Geezer, seriously? I'm 16 for fucks sake. Also I'm gonna kill the kid. Oh yeah, maybe I should start to run. Where the fuck are we heading anyway? I guess just follow him down the mountain. And that is exactly what I do. There's trees everywhere. It's getting hard to dodge them and keep my footing. I start to trip and fall towards a tree. Closing my eyes, I brace for impact. There's a pause and then I'm backing to running down the hill. Wait what happened? Looking back, I can see a shadowy figure running into the tree that was supposed to hit me. Oh shit I totally have Zeds powers don't I.

   Just for clarification. Zed is a character from a video game called League of Legends. He can create shadowy figures that mimic his movements. He can also switch places with these shadows. So essentially, I had created a shadow on the other side of the tree I was heading towards. I then switch places with the shadow, avoiding the tree.

Hey this is pretty easy. I just keep running and when there's something in the way, I just use a shadow to avoid it. Life's pretty OK right now. That food was good, I got shadow powers, oh and I'm gonna kill that kid. Cause fuck that guy. Eventually I reach a large open area with a lake in the middle. There's no more snow. My Ketchup sadly is here. He's receiving a map from an old sage standing at the front of the lake.
   "Yo can I get my map as well?"
   "No you must find your map. I'm afraid the only hint I can give you is in the form of a riddle".
   "Wait hold up. Why the fuck do I gotta find my map but Mr Ketchup gets his for free?"
   "Because you have had the powers of the shadow bestowed upon you"
   "OK well fuck you and your hint. I'll find the map on my own"
   
   It takes me like a minute to find the map. As I run back into the forest, following the map, I flip the sage off. I can feel his disappointed eyes going through the back of my head. No time to care about a random old guy being disappointed, I gotta catch up to Mr Ketchup so I can kick his ass. Oh and win some food. I kinda forgot about that. My shadow powers are apparently very helpful because I manage to catch up to Mr Ketchup. We're at a river bank. Wait is that a bald eagle on his shoulder?
   "So you caught up to me, your not as bad as I thought".
   "I am literally going to throw you into this river".
   "Heh, not gonna happen, first you gotta beat me in a Pokemon battle, and we both know that aint happening".
   I start to walk towards the kid. I'm just gonna kick his ass. I don't really care about this Pokemon battle. Oh shit his eagles giving me the eye. Fuck that I ain't dealing with no eagle.
   "Fine, where's my Pokemon?"
   "God you are lame, go grab one from that backpack over there"
   Ah yes, the conveniently placed backpack, my favorite. Reaching inside I find and pull out a pokeball. This is either gonna be a worm or a retarded bird. Oh shit its Darkrai.
 
Darkrai. Shit's OP
Darkrai gives me a look. I return with a nod. He moves in for a strike, fast and deadly. Literally. He ripped the eagles head off. Fucking hell. I was not mentally prepared for that.
   "Dude sorry abou-"
   "Haha, you managed to beat my first Pokemon, but how will you do against my second"
   "Wait do you even care?"
   "About what?"
   "You know what, never mind. Yo Darkrai, try to like not kill anything... OK besides the kid, as long as it looks like an accident".
   Four Pokemon (which were all birds, not bird Pokemon, just birds) knock outs later and Mr Ketchup has been left with one Pokemon (bird) at his disposal. Right as he's about to throw his last pokeball, I wake up.

That's it. That's the end. Pretty sure if the dream went any longer, I would of killed Mr Ketchup. Also that dream had no consistency in the story so sorry if it was hard to follow. Still, pretty fun, would recommend. So I actually really enjoyed writing this, besides constantly fucking up whether it was past or present tense. Oh and having a broken S and D key. Really annoying. So that's about it. See ya in another year. Haha joking. Probably. Maybe.

School War Dream

Yo this is the like the shortest gap between 2 posts ever. Well unless I get lazy and not finish writing this one till a couple weeks later like I did with the last post. But I mean its not like that'll happen again right? eh probably not. Also if you read my last dream then you would of seen that I had another "good" dream before I was even done writing the previous one. Well this is that dream. So I kinda had this like a week ago but I'm sure its fine. So as repeated in most of my posts, lets cover some basic background info on this super amazing wacky ultra fun dream.

So in this dream there are 2 dominant high schools in my town. There's the one I go to, which is my high school in real life but its located where my old primary School is and then there's the super generic rich evil one. Everyone at the high school are just like super dicks like their probably kicking puppy's and what not. Their the kind of people that go to parties, eat all the food there, then leave. So these 2 schools are having like a whole "this town ain't big enough for the both of us" thing going on, one thing led to another and now both schools are going to fight each other in a game. And not like a friendly game of dodge ball, this is a straight up battle to the death, well sorta. To eliminate someone from the game, they had to just be unable to battle. Once every player from a school was eliminated, the other school won. Whatever school wins this game will become the only school in town. Most people from my school decided to avoid killing as much as possible but we already knew that the other school would not care if someone died or not. The battle was restricted to my school which meant that we had the home field advantage. Anyone caught leaving the school grounds would be disqualified immediately. Now there are 2 important elements of this world. The first being that some people could bend elements like in Avatar. This meant that some people could control either Fire, Water, Earth or Air. The only problem was that bending in this world was very difficult. This caused powers to be very limited. This meant that bending was more of a support thing rather then a primary weapon. The other important element of this world was that some people had a "special" form. This "special form" could only be used for short bursts before the user got tired and had to return to their human form. These forms varied from person to person but they were all very powerful. OK I think that's all you need to know for now so lets just get to the dream shall we.

The dream starts 7 days before the match between the 2 schools is scheduled to begin. As you can imagine we're spending all of our free time training for battle. This is all being done at the grass Oval located across the street from our school. There are teachers all around the Oval giving lessons about different things in battle though if one wants, they can simply practice on their own. I choose to practice on my own due to the fact that I can bend earth and have a "special form". I wanted to work on improving these things as they could prove to be very effective if used right. I'm practicing a technique I created. The technique if done correctly, creates a hole under the enemy in the shape of a circle. The problem is that this is proving to be very difficult to do. Earth bending was difficult in general. Lifting up rocks required a huge amount of concentration and will power. This meant that launching rocks at opponents was extremely difficult to do so I avoided trying to do so. Creating holes was a little easier. It felt like I was literally pushing the ground down with my bare hands. To create a hole under my opponent faster then they react was going to be very difficult though. I spent a couple of hours practicing this technique while remembering to push the ground back up when I was done. After I was done training for the day I started walking around checking out everyone else training. While doing this I happen to spot my mother who is being thanked by some kids that she was just training. They run off as by the time I reach her. I say the generic hi, hows it going and all that stuff. I then notice my little sister Jade practicing some type of karate not far from us. I'm worried about her safety during the battle as there's a chance that she may die. I wait till after she's done to approach her. We talk for a while before I tell her that she needs to stay behind her teammates and avoid combat as much as possible. As expected, she gives a passive aggressive response but still agrees to do as I say.
A Lama with a scarf
Time skips forward and there is only 2 days left until the match. I'm inside a medium sized circular building located at the far end of the Oval (this building doesn't exist in real life btw). It has 2 floors and I'm at the top floor. The top floor is full of computers and machines while the bottom floor is like a small coliseum which kids can fight in. The second story has a glass floor so people can observe the fights from above. I'm arguing with my friend Cooper. He's mad because I'm getting special treatment from everyone and he's not. I keep telling him its because I have the "special mode" and can bend earth. He responds by saying that he's done heaps for the war (cooper is helping organize the troops and prepare a strategy) but I still getting treated better then him. This fight goes on for a while before I accidentally yell that I'm more important then he is. The room goes silent. Eventually Cooper breaks the silence by telling me that if I'm so important then I can do all of his work for him. He then hands be a bunch of files and a clipboard before walking off. I know he'll be back so I just leave his stuff on the table and head down to the coliseum for some practice. The way the coliseum works is that the fights in it are 1 v 1's with the rule that if the winner of a fight wants to keep fight the next opponent, they can but they can also leave after any fight. If someone loses a fight then they must leave and wait their turn to try again. I start fighting my opponents and defeat most of them pretty easily. I'm simply trying to beat my best score before leaving. After some fights I'm only 1 off a new high score. I see my opponent walk into the arena. Its Cooper. He says that if he wins, everyone will see he's just as important as me. The fight begins and Cooper immediately charges at me. I swoop to the left and lift a rock up under him causing him to trip. I then drop a rock on him which injures him enough for the fight to end. My goal was to beat my high score then stop and that's exactly what I did. As I'm walking out of the arena, I can hear Cooper screaming at me that he wants a rematch. Ignoring these screams, I exit the arena. Turns out that my score was the second highest in the school. I go back to training and realize I'm never gonna get this technique done in time. This causes me to invent a new technique. I spend the rest of my time training perfecting this technique while making sure nobody knows what it is, in case an enemy spy is listening. 
Time skips forward to the day of the match. Every is getting ready at the Oval. A huge siren goes off signaling that we are now walking to school to begin the battle. When the siren goes I instantly start searching for my mum. I find her and so does jade shortly after. She quickly tells us to both be safe and puts wax in our hair so it doesn't get in the way during battle. We thank her then run off to our age groups walking to the school. Some kids around me look grim as if their deaths are guaranteed. I realize that I might die today and get a little scared myself. I cant seem to find my friends anywhere but I do manage to see a kid called Dylan that I used to be friends with in primary school. I walk over to him and we start talking about random things to keep the mood light. Eventually we reach the starting point for out team at our school. I've lost Dylan but found my friends all sitting together. I join them. Everyone is sitting on the ground as the principle who has some teachers standing next to him, is giving a speech. He reminds us about what we're fighting for. He then tells us that while killing is ill advised, it is legal during this match. We are told of a new rule that has been added. If a player is hit by a dodge ball, then they are eliminated. Each student/teacher has been giving 5 special dodge balls that are very small but when squeezed, they expand to become regular sized. This rule allows us to avoid killing as much as possible though we already know that the enemy will ignore this rule. It is for this reason that we all have rifles in case of emergency. He then goes on to remind us of our formations for the battle. The school will be split up into 5 battalions. Each battalion will consist of 10 squads each. Each squad will consist of 6 people. I was placed in a special squad that consisted of only members with the "special form". We were to be a secret weapon that would allow our battalion to push through to the enemy base very quickly. During the speech, one of my friends is messing around and nudging me in the back with his foot. After a couple of nudges I fall forward. The principle sees this and pauses his speech to ask if I'm ready for battle. Everyone looks at me. I just kinda laugh it off and tell him that I am indeed ready. After his speech finishes another siren goes off indicating that the match has begun.

 Super Cool Edited Map of My High school
As soon as the siren goes off, a bus crashes through building I and parks so that its side is facing our starting zone. Immediately after, opponents from the other school start throwing dodge balls through the windows of the bus. While this does make a lot of people glad to know that some of the enemy will be using dodge balls, it doesn't change the fact that the bus is going to do some serious damage if not dealt with fast. Our principle yells for 2 battalions to stay back and take out the bus while the rest begin their advancements. I quickly found my squad and we grouped with our battalion shortly after. My squad contained my 2 friends Nick and Brandon, 2 random guys from my school and a girl.

Now the interesting part about this girl was that she was from a dream I had earlier that night. I don't remember her name so lets just call her Leah.I don't remember much from the dream besides the fact that me, Leah and another guy were all best friends. We lived at our school which had groups of 3 live together. Because of this we basically hung out 24/7 and used to just mess around a lot in our free time. Leah and the guy were dating and I remember being jealous because I had a crush on the her. I chose to just get over it and move on so we could all remain good friends. That's all I remember from the dream besides the fact that it was relatively long and a lot of stuff happened that I don't remember. 

Our battalions job was to move through buildings C, D and H in an attempt to control the North side of the school. From there we would push south down the right side of buildings H, I and J. In doing this we would hopefully meet up with the other 2 battalions that will be pushing through the south side of the school. Once the bus was taken care of, 1 of the 2 remaining battalions would take full control of building M and use it as a safe house in case our assaults fail. The final battalion was to remain flexible and wait until they were needed. Our battalion waited for the bus to be distracted before moving in between buildings C, D and H. We knew that around the corner of building H would be the enemy so we approached it carefully. Our squad and another were to lead the battalion at the front because of our skill when it came to battle. A girl from another squad stuck her head around the corner but was immediately fired at by the enemy. Luckily she wasn't hit but this meant that the enemy was well set up due to the large amount of gunfire. Suddenly while we were accessing the situation, 2 girls from the enemy team came around the corner aiming their rifles at us. Before they could fire, I quickly threw 2 dodge balls at them, eliminating them both from the match. Realizing that we cant afford to wait, I decide to use my secret technique. I go as close to the corner as possible and using my earth bending, lift a thin column from under the ground at the corner. I raise the column to about eye height. I then push out a sheet of cover from the left side of the column, effectively creating a rock cover. 

So that wasn't a very good explanation of the technique so I created a visual demonstration of what the technique is.
The Cover Technique
As you can see, I'm not good with visual explanations either. Hopefully you can sorta get the idea from the picture though. Basically I raise the column form out of the ground, then sorta pull a thin block of cover from it. I can adjust the size of the cover or column whenever I want and can also create cover from all 4 directions of the column at once. Now your probably thinking this isn't that special of a technique but keep in mind that bending elements is really difficult in this world. The fact that I can do this at extremely fast speeds is impressive enough. Well as impressive as ones powers from their own dream can be. Alright back to the dream

After I was done extending the cover enough so we could hide a person behind it, I created another column at the far end of the cover. Using this column, I created another cover that is taller then a person. Both of these covers effectively created half a box so we could have a person peak over to see what the enemy was doing without having to worry about a surprise attack from their left. Everybody started cheering as soon as I was done creating the covers. The same girl that peeked around the corner was now using to cover to take a look at the enemy. Suddenly she yells that there's a mortar heading her way. I raise the cover just in time and block the mortar that would of killed a couple of our teammates. Building H has a roof that extends beyond the wall a bit which gives us a small amount of cover from the mortars. We realize that their using the mortars to pin us down while they send in squads to take us out. This won't be very difficult considering we're sitting ducks hiding under the small amount of cover we have. Having mortars constantly exploding near us doesn't make coming up with a plan any easier either. We got the girl that peeked over the cover to draw us a map of the situation so we could determine what course of action we would take.
Recreation of map
Now that we had a map, we were beginning to create a plan. As we are doing this, an enemy comes around the corner. She seems to have a very cocky attitude and laughs when she see's our battalion. She then tells us that she can single handedly take us all out. Some people attempt to throw dodge balls at her but she dodges them with ease. She then uses earth bending to pick up rocks and throw them at me. Apparently my new technique has made me a target to get rid of. I use my earth bending to guide the rocks away from me and my teammates. Sadly I'm very bad when it comes to holding and throwing rocks so I cant send them back at the girl. Realizing that is a do or die situation, some people from our battalion start shooting at the girl with their rifles but she dodges them with ease. Her fighting style is unique as she uses the rocks under her to launch herself around at high speeds. This makes hitting her very difficult. I try mimicking her technique the best I can though I'm still doing much worse then her. The only advantage I have is that she must keep moving to dodge the bullets from my allies. That being said, I also have to dodge the mortars though they are much less frequent then the rifles. Predicting her dodging patterns, I manage to push a rock up below her as she attempts to move to the right. Doing this cause her to fall which allows me to push another rock upwards striking her in the head. This knocks her out. Just to be sure, I still hit her with a dodge ball so even if she is faking being unconscious, she's out of the match. Someone from our battalion notices a book that had fallen off the girl. Upon picking it up, I realized it gave instructions on how to upgrade mortars. The girl must of accidentally took it with her. Knowing that it was valuable information, I gave it to Nick and told him to protect it no matter what. We realize that we cant afford to hide for much longer as every mortar fired would risk one of our allies to be injured/killed. My squad decided that we would run towards the oval and see if we can make a difference from there. We would do this by using my technique to create a barrier spanning from building H, all the way to building L. This would buy us a little time which hopefully would be enough for use to reach a safe distance. Nick stays behind to protect the book so its just me, Brandon, the 2 random guys and the Leah.

We timed the mortars shots, waiting for them to have to reload. Once it was time, we ran out of our cover and towards the Oval. My team laid down a suppressive fire (while trying to not hit anyone) to make my job easier. I raised the column in the middle of the area. Not wanting to mess it up, I went as close to the column as possible before creating the barriers on both sides. Once I was done, I went to run with the others towards the oval but a mortar had finished reloading and fired. The blast went between me and my squad, knocking me into my own barrier and separating me from them. The mortar had left a ringing in my ears and left me barely conscious. I quickly regained my senses and noticed that the barrier I was leaning on was falling apart. My squad was already at a safe distance and were yelling for me to hurry up. Just as I managed to pull myself up, huge flames started gaping through the barrier. I leaped forwards out of pure instinct. Looking behind me, I see part of the barrier breaking away to reveal 2 kids behind it. They were twin brothers. Once had a flamethrower and the other had no weapon. They both had a hillbilly type of accent and were mocking me. Luckily the barrier would be able to hold for a bit longer but I still needed to move fast. I went to quickly check on my battalion again, but they were all gone except Nick. Nick was fighting over the book with the cocky, earth bending girl from earlier. They were just pulling it back and forth like you would expect 5 year old's to do. I walk over to them and snatch the book off of both of them. The girl starts to chase me. I decide to throw some insults at her while running away. Not long after, her brother appears. He noticed my insults and tells me not to get cocky as it could be my downfall. I acknowledge this and admit that the girl probably would of beaten me in our earlier fight had it not been for my teammates. He responds by telling me that while I shouldn't be cocky, I shouldn't underestimate myself. Especially since I created such an interesting technique. He then grabs the girl by the wrist and starts pulling her away. The girls gives little resistance, showing that she respects her brother. Now that that's done, I go to ask Nick where everyone went. He tells me that the 2 battalions fighting the bus had defeated it and 1 of them went to help ours. They apparently created a hole in the wall of building H and let us battalion sneak through it. Nick was left outside to guard. The hole had since been resealed. Satisfied that allies are safe, I tell Nick to follow me to the rest of our squad. Just as we're about to reach them, the entire barrier crumbles to dust, allowing our enemy's to go through. I order Nick to hide behind building D while I dealt with the 2 Brothers. I decided to stand my ground at the edge of the Oval so that any rifles would struggle to reach me. The brothers start moving towards us very slowly while constantly on the lookout for a surprise attack. I then notice a loose piece of building H's stone wall. I'm too far to be able to control the rubble but I may be able to guide it in a way that it lands on the brother closest to it. I manage to push the rubble but just before its about to hit the brother with the flamethrower, the other one stops it with earth bending. He yells at his brother for being so careless then focuses his attention at me. I can only watch as he molds the piece of rubble into a flying saucer shape that's about the size of a torso. He then proceeds to throw this at me. As its coming towards me, the brother starts changing its speed from fast to slow and vice versa. This makes dodging it very difficult. I just manage to push it a bit to the side with my earth bending which allows me to dodge it. The molded rubble falls close enough to me that I can pick it up and attempt to throw it back at the enemy. This was a terrible idea though as I can't throw it very fast and the brother catches it with ease. He then proceeds to throw it back at me while he and his brother advance towards me. I decide to try to catch it but fail. The rubble smashes straight into me, sending my flying to the ground. Realizing that I'm going to be in a lot of trouble if this keeps up, I decide to take advantage of the arrogance that most of our opponents have. I do this by inviting the earth bending brother to a 1 on 1 fist fight. He laughs then agrees to the fight. I tell my teammates not to interfere and he tells his brother not to as well. We decide to fight at the left side of the oval. There is a small bridge there that goes over a pond. The bridge isn't there in real oval mostly because it would be inconvenient to people playing sport but this is a dream so fuck logic. He tells me to throw the first punches. I try put every time I go to punch him, he just catches it, crushes my knuckle then pushes me back. Eventually he starts throwing punches and starts decimating me. I try to fight back but he just dodges me then follows up with some severe hits of his own. This goes on for about a minute before I jump back to gain some distance. Realizing that there's no way I'm going to win like this, I activate my "special form". This turns me into a werewolf. And not like that twilight bullshit where its just a big wolf. I'm the kind that stands on 2 feet
I was this kinda wolf
I give a laugh and ask if he's ready to continue. He retorts with his own laugh, claiming I'm not the only one that can do that. He then proceeds to transform into a wolf as well. We charge as each other and continue our fight. Unlike earlier, the fight is now even with neither of us showing any signs of giving up. Its also a lot more brutal thanks to our increased strength and claws. We battle for about 5 minutes with leads to us fighting at the entrance to the bridge. We both manage to land a large blow on each other at the same time causing us to both to fall and slide backwards.

My sliding comes to a sudden stop about halfway across the bride. Wondering what I crashed on, I look up and see the Leah standing behind me. Next to her are the rest of my squad. They all look really pissed off due to me being injured in the fight. I turn back to see the brother I was fighting has now got his squad behind him as well. The flamethrower guy is there but the rest I had never seen before. Both squads activate their "special forms" at the same time. The only one I remember was Leah's. She had become a vampire which meant very little had changed besides her eyes going red. The thing that makes Leah special is that she has a power unlike any other. The problem with this power is that it has a cooldown of sorts, meaning that she can only use it like once a month or something. The fact that we had an entire squad of enemy's that had a "special form" right in front of us meant that this was an appropriate time to use it. When this power was used, it sent each of us into a different dark bedroom with 1 of the opponents sleeping in bed. We were all then given the power to decide when they would wake up and return to reality. The catch was that none of us could communicate with each other while in the room, meaning that if one really wanted too, they could make the person sleep for eternity. We all had to trust each other not to do this. I decided to make the person sleep for a month in case this match somehow lasted an extremely long time. After this was done, me and my squad warped back intro reality in our normal forms. We decided to meet up with whats left of our battalion and continue our push forward. That is when I woke up.

So... that was a pretty long dream. might even be my longest post. But if I'm gonna be real honest with you, because this is a place of trust. I may of taken like 4 days to write this. I got like really lazy and just wrote for like an "hour" a day which lead to this taking a while. Also this is probably one of my all time favorite dreams. It just ticked a lot of boxes ya dig. Now if you actually manage to make it this far then congratulations. Like seriously I make these so that I can reread them later on when I forget the dreams but this one is fucking long. I'll probably ignore it for a while. Mostly due to the fact that my poor writing/grammar/formatting makes most of it unbearable. Also I usually only document the dreams that are long in length but I may add in a couple of shorted dreams here and there. There are probably also dreams that I'll make fake names for people that are in it, like if something weird happens with them. Like ya know... sex? maybe? .... don't judge me, I cant control my brain. Besides I can't recall having any weird dreams about people I know. Anyway thanks for reading I guess and I'll see ya next time.

Halo Wars Dream

Hey hows it going? life treating ya well? seen any good movies lately? just kidding I don't care about you or your life. Sadly I didn't keep up my monthly schedule but its been hard cause my dreams have been getting real fucking weird lately. Like most of them just aren't interesting and the ones that are I forget as soon as I wake up. Also I have been having like 2 dreams a night which is pretty cool I guess. Well I mean it would be cool but my fucking brain hates me cause in some of my recent dreams I'm about to get laid (or have sex for you simple folk) but right before I do, I wake up. It's like my brain just cant comprehend sex. Sigh the life of a virgin. Well like most of these lets go through some mother fucking back story.

Although the dream is based on me and my friends playing a video game called halo wars, the game in the dream is pretty different to the real halo wars. In the dream the game is a first person game in which 2 teams control their army's and battle each other. Each team has their own planet and space stations surrounding their planets. In the dream it felt like we were actually in the game (like virtual reality) but we still refereed to it as if we were just siting on our seats playing with controllers. Now lets get to the dream. It starts in the middle of a mulitplayer match on "halo wars". Its a 3 verse 1 handicap match with me and my 2 friends Lachlan and Brandon against some random player. The map was simple 2 planets (1 for each team) with a moon between them. This means that to see the enemy, we had to go around the moon which would place us in a dangerous position. We had all upgraded ourselves differently. Lachlan upgraded his space stations, giving us a really strong defense. Brandon upgraded his fleet of space ships which gave us a really strong attack force. I upgraded my character which basically gave me the powers of a dragon ball Z character (e.g flying, super strength, breathing in space, shooting lasers out of my hand). All these upgrades resulted in me looking like Cooler from Dragon ball Z.
Cooler
 Despite our strategic upgrades and outnumbering him, a recent attack from our opponent left our army in a pretty bad shape after we only just managed to survive. It had been quiet for about 10 minutes. This meant either 2 things. Either our opponent took heavy damages from his last assault and needed to repair and create new units or he was gathering his units together for a final attack. We decided that we would need to see what he is up to. Sadly this was a difficult task due to the moon blocking our view of him. I was sent to check as I was the fastest thing in the match. I reached the moon in only about 2 minutes which is less the half the time it would take for a scout ship to reach it. I then started to go around the right side of the moon. The journey around the moon was only about 20 seconds at max speed though I decided to go slower to ensure our opponent didn't see me. Eventually I reached a point in which I could see his planet and all of his space stations. He had much more space stations then us and they all looked more fortified then ours. It was then that I saw the huge fleet of ships heading to our planet from the left side of the moon. I counted at least 100 of them and they all looked a lot bigger then ours. I warn my friends and Brandon says he'll go to intercept them which should buy Lachlan enough time to prepare the space stations defenses

This is what the ships looked like
I decided to do a sneak attack on the enemy's station hopefully forcing him to send his units back to stop me. It is then that I see directly ahead of me was a army of aliens that were similar to me but with much weaker powers. Unlike me, these aliens were being controlled by a single player which was our opponent. They were heading right towards me at an alarming pace. I let my teammates know this and I tell them that I will deal with this problem. I charged at the alien army preparing for an epic battle to unfold. Right as I reached them, they ignored me and just kept heading towards our planet. I realized that the enemy player was too busy controlling his fleet of ships and just commanded his aliens to attack the planet and nothing else. I took advantage of this and flew in the middle of the horde of aliens, blasting them with lasers and punching any that got close. Brandon tells us that his fleet is struggling to hold back the enemy's and he wont last much longer at this rate. Lachlan tells us that he can provide support with his long ranged weapons though most of them are still powering them up. I can kill the aliens with ease but there are just too many of them. I see Brandon's fleet completely destroyed and realize there's no way to stop the horde of aliens coming towards the space station. I close my eyes and hear an announcer say "game over, you lose".

Hey before I continue the story I just wanna mention that I wrote the first half like 4 weeks ago and just never bothered to finish it until now. So like my memory on the dream is a bit fuzzy but bare with me.... or leave, in fact why don't you just leave!!! your just like my parents!!!. Anyway back to da story. Actually one more thing, I'm listening to music while writing that so that may affect my already pretty terrible writing/grammar. OK this time we're actually going back to the story... I think.

After we discussed about why we lost and how we could improve, we searched for more opponents to face. This time we picked a capture the flag type gamemode. Basically we were fighting in a solar system with about 10 planets and some moons. Each team would consist of 3 people. Both teams had a home planet which contained a flag in it. The home planets were protected by a shield which meant that giant spaceships could not enter them at all. This meant that once a team had secured the surrounding areas of a planet, they would have to send smaller ships, land vehicles and infantry to retrieve the enemy flag. Once a team had the enemy flag they would need to return it to their own planet on the other side of the solar system. After a bit of searching we found another team to face and begun the game. We all spawned on our home planet. All of our upgrades from the previous game had disappeared so we had to spend some time creating a army. It was decided that I would defend the flag on the planet while Lachlan and Brandon create a space fleet capable of pushing through the enemy's defenses which would allow us to capture their flag. The start of the game was relatively peaceful as both teams were still preparing for war. I took a minute to take a look at our planet. The sky was a yellowish colour that was covered in transparent clouds. The surface looked very similar to the planet Namek from dragon ball Z.

 Planet Namek


 I mention to my friends how amazing the game looks on the newest generation of consoles and Lachlan agrees with me but Brandon tells us he's playing on the version for the previous generation of consoles. We both laugh at him as he's known for bragging about how rich he is. The game was recently updated so I was looking forward to seeing some of these updates first hand. By now Lachlan and Brandon were building ships on the space station each team is given at the start of the game. I opened the spawn menu to start fortifying our planets surface. The menu opened in front of me like a hologram. There's a list of categories for things I can purchase and a budget that is located at the top right of the menu. Some of the categories include: Units, Vehicles, Construction and Items. I spend about 30 minutes purchasing many units, vehicles and buildings to help defend our flag. I then create a building which our flag will be placed in. Due to a limited budget The building I create is made of stone and has only 2 floors. Its kinda hard to describe the building but I'll give it a shot. The first floor has only 1 main entrance which is a double door. Upon entering the building a person is greeted with a large grey dim lit room. The room has a ramp that goes across the wall opposite to the door. The ramp is the only way to access the elevated half of the room. Across from this elevated half is a door that leads to the stairs to go to the second floor of the building. So I'll try to recap. An entrance at the north wall, a ramp at the south, a elevated floor at the west and a door leading towards some stairs at the east. Satisfied with my work outside, I decide to fortify the building in case the enemy manages to reach it. I start by going to the units category in the spawn menu. Next to a unit is a preview picture of its species. Due to the recent update to the game, there are a lot of species I don't recognize. Despite this, I decide to just spawn a bunch of aliens from each species until I have little budget left. Once I'm done, the room is full of a bunch of weird and sometimes scary monsters. They all speak English and talk as if they were real people. I tell them all that we need to fortify the room to prepare in case of an attack. They all start helping me by placing barricades and supply's around the room. As we do this, we all talk about random things to pass the time. I learn of many of the aliens back story's, some of which are so detailed I almost believed they were real. About an hour passed and we were almost done fortifying when suddenly I hear a scream from the elevated half of the room. One scream turns to many in a very short amount of time. Nobody on the lower half of the room can see what is happening including myself. I grab 2 Plasma Rifles I have holstered at my sides.
A Plasma Rifle
All of the aliens around ready themselves as well, some using manufactured weapons while others use their naturals ones. Suddenly the screams stop and we just stand there in silence waiting for something to come either by the ramp or by jumping down. Suddenly an army of enemy aliens start coming towards us. Using my radio, I ask Lachlan and Brandon if they are ok. They reply saying yes and ask why. I tell them the enemy must of sneaked a small ship past them. They apologize and as if I'll be OK. I chuckle and tell them that this is no problem for me. I'm lying to them. This was actually a big fucking problem, but I don't want them to worry about. Normally a small group of aliens would be no problem but these weren't normal aliens. They were the flood from halo.
The  Master Chief and Arbiter Surrounded by Flood
So as you can see from the picture above, the flood are fucking scary. See the little things with skinny legs, well their called infection forms. Basically they jump onto and stab you with their weird tentacles. They go straight for the spinal cord which normally kills you instantly. Once that's done they start to mutate your body turning you into a flood yourself. This can be seen in the picture above. These mutated forms vary depending on what species it is. So basically once these things killed something, it would join their ranks. This was the fate of the aliens that had fought the flood at the elevated part of the room. Combining them with the swarm of hundreds of infection forms made a difficult foe. Luckily the infection forms died with one shot from almost any weapon. They weren't very easy to hit though due to their small size and fast speeds. As soon as the swarm appeared, all the remaining aliens and myself opened fire. The swarm spit up and started to surround us. We were being attacked from all sides and many of my aliens were dying. One of them could spit acid with was extremely effective against the infection forms. Combining this with the barrage of bullets meant we were able to hold off the attack. Although we had survived, a lot of my aliens had died. I didn't have much of a budget left so I spent it spawning as many replacement aliens as possible.

The game had been going on for a while now and night just started to come. I walked out of the building to take a look outside. There had been no large assaults in space yet which left an unsettling mood. There were a bunch of friendly ships flying above the planet which was to be expected by this late in the game. After watching them fly around for a while, I decided to head back inside. Inside the building was a room full of aliens sitting around or close to a campfire placed in the center. Most are preparing to sleep on a bunch of sleeping bags though there are some who must keep lookout in case of another attack. I decide to light a candle and head upstairs to explore a bit. Once I reach the second floor, I am greeted with a hallway full of doors on both sides. One of the doors is slightly open with a dim light coming out of it so I decide to investigate. I creep into the room and find Wilt from fosters home for imaginary friends reading a book.
Wilt


 I ask him where he got the book and he just points to a table in the room. I walk over and see a identical copy of the book on the table. Upon grabbing the book Wilt tells me that their meant to haunted by a ghost girl. We both look at each other in silence for 5 seconds before breaking out in laughter at such a ridiculous story. After that I tell him he should come downstairs to get some shuteye. As we're walking out the room I freeze. Wilt asks whats wrong and I reply by telling him that the ghost is real. He chuckles and says I bet in a sarcastic voice. I then tell him to look at his books cover. He does and realizes that its flipped. Now I just wanna quickly mention that I have no fucking idea why a flipped book cover meant a ghost but it did. We both look down the other end of the hall to see a dark figure of a girl. Suddenly she starts running at us while screaming incredibly loudly. We start to run the opposite way back to the stairs. After getting down the stairs and back to the first floor, I shut the door to the stairs. Upon doing this the ghost girl stops and just stares at us. I realize that she cant get past this door and start laughing at her. After I'm done taunting her I turn back to see Wilt explaining the story the other aliens. I grab my Plasma Rifles and tell everyone I'm going to be on lookout for the night. After this I either woke up or don't remember the rest of the dream.

So that's it for another one of these wacky dreams. Now chances are you didn't make it this far because to be honest this wasn't that interesting of a dream which is probably why I stopped writing it for like 4 weeks. I was really thinking of putting this one on hold for even longer so I could write about a different dream I recently had but decided against it. That being said I will still write about the other dream, in fact it'll probably be my next post. It's not that I didn't like this dream because if that was the case I wouldn't post it on this blog. This is after all just so I have a database of dreams I want to be able to remember. This just wasn't a very fun dream to write about is all.  Also just to elaborate on the whole not remembering the rest of the dream part, I didn't remember it after I woke up. So it wasn't because I stopped writing this shit for like 4 weeks. OK well that's all for now so I guess I'll see you next time. I know you just cant wait ;)

Sorta Remembered Dream

Hey hows it going? probably terrible but anyway before I get off to this dream I feel like there are some things that lead up to it that should be said. Basically for like the last 3 weeks I have been having at least 2 dreams a night which is pretty fucking cool. The only downside is that when you have multiple dreams in one night you tend to only remember 1 or 2 of them. Which leads me to this dream. You see in the dream there was this sorta "power" that was given to one person in the world at a time. So like once the person with the "power" dies another one is born with the "power". I'm not really sure what the "power" did but it was extremely important. Anyway I had a sorta Prologue dream that came before the dream im going to write about. In this Prologue dream I found out I was chosen for the "power". "But Thomas why not tell us about this Prologue dream as well", well I'm glad you asked. You see like mentioned earlier when you have multiple dreams in one night it gets hard to remember all of your dreams. Well I literally don't remember anything about this dream besides that I found out I had the "power", it was set in my old house and there a microwave was involved somehow. Honestly I don't even remember some of the dream I'm going to write about but I remember enough for it to make some sense. Well now that we've got that shit out of the way, lets start this mother fucking story.

So the dream starts out with me and 3 of my friends (Brandon, Caleb and Ryan) playing on a server for a video game called Garrys Mod. This was a strange server because it was like a hangout spot which had these portals in it which led to other servers. We were inside a large building that looked like a clean factory that was empty besides a square platform in the corner that could only be reached by 2 stair cases placed on both sides of it. There was a room at the very end of the corner that could only be reached by the platform. I remember seeing a portal to a role play server that me and my friends loved to play on but we were to busy to enter it. We were heading outside the building to a outside party for some occasion I cant remember. I don't remember if we actually went to the party and I forgot or time passed by but we were at the end of the party and suddenly playing a zombie game on the same server. The idea of the game seemed to be that there were a lot of weak zombies that were trying to kill the 200ish people on the server. If a player dies to the zombies then they come back as a very strong zombie that was difficult to kill. Me and my friends were on the square platform discussing our plan as the zombie horde was approaching fast and most of the other players on the server died and had come back as zombies. I had a M14 Carbine Rifle as my weapon. I remember mentioning how cool it was that we were using the character models from another video game called Nazi Zombies which wouldn't be weird on its own except we weren't. As soon the zombie part of the dream had started it felt like it was real and it was actually us there but we still treated it like a video game. Anyway we started shooting at the zombies which was very hard due to there only being 2 stairs that led up the platform. Me and Caleb were defending one staircase while Ryan and Brandon were defending the other. Everything was going well until I had this feeling that something terrible had happened. I turned to see Ryan being overwhelmed by a horde of zombies with Brandon nowhere to be seen. I told Caleb to keep defending the staircase while I started killing all the zombies that had broken through the now undefended staircase. I manage to kill most of them when I notice Ryan's body twitching. He started to stand up but this time as a zombie. I started to shoot at Ryan but it didn't seem to hurt him. I realized that I needed to act fast and decided to pull out my knife and charge at him. Right before I reached him this guide appeared above his head that told me to his the X button and down at the same time. I'm not sure how I did this as this felt like real life and I didn't have a controller but nevertheless I did it knocking him to the ground. I was then on top of him with my knife when a bunch of X's appeared next to him. I had to tap the from right to left in a short amount of time. When I did this I had the ability to stab zombie Ryan in the neck with my knife killing him. I get up and see another player turned into a zombie approaching me. This time it was a blonde girl who looked like she was about 24. I figured that doing the same thing I did with Ryan would be the smartest plan so I charged at her. Right before I reached her the same buttons that were appeared above Ryan's head were appearearing above her head. Suddenly the buttons kept changing and I had to quickly press them before they would change again. I just hit it in the time and knocked her to the ground. It was almost a complete repeat of the situation with Ryan except that the girl had a lot more X's to press then Ryan did. I then realized this was because I hadn't shot her earlier like I did with Ryan so she was still at full health. I couldn't press the X's fast enough so I had to jump back. It was then that I saw a huge horde was approaching. I decided to run to Caleb and see if we could push our way through the stairs. I reached the stairs but Caleb was there so I decided just to run down on my own. Right before I was about to go down the stairs I looked and saw a huge horde heading up them with a girl backing up the stairs while shooting. I decided to assist her think that the stairs were my only hope although deep down I knew we didn't have enough time to clear through all the zombies fast enough. While we were shooting she told me we were the only 2 humans left. When I asked what we were gonna do she told me to follow her. She ran into the room that could be only reached by the platform and I soon followed her

When I entered the room we were suddenly in "real life" playing a weird type of game. The idea of the game is that it was a 2 v 2 fight but when you killed your opponents they didn't actually die they just teleported to somewhere safe. Also we could materialize our personalized weapons whenever we wanted but the catch was that you couldn't see your own weapon/s. I was partnered with the girl from earlier. It was only now that I noticed her long dark hair and the generally terrifying aura she gave out. The room we had entered looked like a small waiting room with yellow as its primary colour. We were facing the blond girl from earlier who was super aggressive and angry (this was just her normal personality). She was partnered with this kid that looked like he was 11 years old. He was Asian, had a bold hair cut and was wearing a long black robe. He started the fight with his weapon already materialized which was a Katana. My teammate and him were just staring at each other when the angry girl decided to materialize her weapons which were gauntlets that looked similar to yangs gauntlets from RWBY but couldn't be used as guns.

 Yangs Guantlets
She yelled "die bastard"! as she attempted to punch me. I dodged her attack causing her to hit the wall while I rolled back and materialized my 2 weapons which were basically death the kids duel wield pistols, but unlike his pistols mine weren't humans turning into weapons.

Death The Kid Holding His Guns
Once my weapons had materialized I immediately started to shoot at the angry girl though they seem to have little effect. The weapons don't have to reload so I just kept firing and firing while she was trying to pull her fist our of the wall. Eventually she succeeded and start to charge at me. I panicked and started to shoot faster which, while making her flinch, did not stop the charge. She punched me in the stomach sending me flying backwards. I was lying on the ground when I say that neither my teammate or hers had moved and inch. I then turned back to see the angry girl running directly at me. I didn't have much time so I dematerialized my guns and rematerialized them on the my feet which were facing the girl. I then proceeded to shoot rapidly at her. She clearly hadn't recovered from when I was shooting her earlier because this time instead of just flinching, she actually started to back off to dodge my attacks. Realizing this wasn't enough I started to think I would need to use the guns special attack which turns them into cannons attached to my arms. Just before I could the girl retreated through a door into another room. I dematerialized my weapons and got up ready to chase her when suddenly my teammate walked past me following the girl in the room. This left me and the 11 year old kid alone in the room. He still hadn't moved so I decided to materialize my pistols and shoot him. He dodged the shoot while not even paying attention to me and instead looking at the doorway our teammates walked through. This irritated me so I decided to shoot at him but this time rapidly but he just kept dodging the shots like they were nothing.  Suddenly we heard the angry girl scream in pain. Shortly after, my teammate came back covered in blood and with a smile on her face. The 11 year old kid looked like he was thinking for a second then shrouded himself in a cloak of darkness. When the cloak disappeared he was no longer there anymore. The girl then left the room. I looked and saw a T.V at the end of the room. Walking up to it revealed that there was an xbox missing its top cover under was under the T.V. The xbox had 2 Nintendo 64 game cartridges place in it for some reason. While investigating an old man walked beside me and started talking. I don't remember who he was but I remember that he was some sort of big deal because I spoke to him with the up most respect. He mentioned the fact the a power was in the xbox which could unlock a hidden power inside of someone. He asked me if I thought there was anyway to find this power inside the xbox by looking at its source code. I told him it was incredibly unlikely. He laughed in reply and said "I suppose not". That when I started to feel this strange sensation coming from the xbox. It was like there was an invisible force pushing me away from it but something in my body made me want to touch it. After a slight struggle I manage to put my had on it and I felt this huge surge of power go through me. It was then that I remembered (from the last dream) that I had a legendary power hidden inside of me. The old man looked at me confused. I tried shrugging it off saying I just wondered what the xbox felt like but I could tell he knew I was lying. He then took the xbox away saying that he must be going and he looks forward to seeing me again in the future.

Again either time skipped forward or I just don't remember what happened but it had now been a couple of weeks since that last encounter. I was walking with the girl who helped me during the fight as she was now friends with me and all of my friends. She now had shorter hair that went down to her neck. We were walking at night down a path that had a slope next to it leading up to the road. I was on the phone talking to Brandon and Ryan, who were apparently living together (but not in a relationship way). I told them that that old guy from earlier is not to be trusted and that he's actually after stealing the "power" all for himself. Suddenly they hang out. I say "that was weird" when suddenly the girl leaps at me. I dodge just in time and see a dark aura surrounding her. I realized that she, Brandon and Ryan were all being controlled by the old man in a plan to capture and kill me. What I didn't notice is that the dark aura she was giving off was the same as that 11 year old kid from earlier. Anyway I started to run with her chasing after me. I decided that my best chance was to reach Caleb and ask for help even though he was mad at me for something I did during that time skip. I ran up the slope onto the road and decided to run down a street. I saw Caleb walking alone the left footpath of the street but decided I needed to lose the girl before I could talk to him. Luckily to the right side of the street was a rectangle made of hedge's and a building, with only one entrance. I led the girl into the rectangle then I ran up the side of the building and jumped over the hedge. Apparently this lost her even though she could of just went back to way she came and see me. I ran to Caleb who asked what I wanted in a rude manner. I told him what happened to our friends and about the old man. He said that he'll help me stop the old man and we came up with a plan. The old man is having a small party back down the slope I went up but further across town. The plan is that I go to that party to confront the old man while Caleb waits in the distance preparing to strike. I reached the old mans party and saw him talking to a bunch of people while sitting on a chair place at the center of the party and eating kebabs. He was facing the opposite direction from me so he didn't notice when I entered the party. Everyone else went silent and started to stare at me in shock. Eventually he realized nobody was listening to him and turned to see me. He said that it was still a party and I was the guest of honor and told everyone to enjoy themselves. I walked over to him and saw the girl sitting against a wall without a thought in her mind. He asked if I was hungry and offered me a kebab. I took it but realized it was just a stick that had already had the meat on it eaten. I dropped it to the floor and asked him why he wanted the "power". He told me that by having the power he could become immortal. I reminded him that although the "power" has been stolen from its rightful owner in every generation, the thieves did not live very long life's. He replied saying that those men were foolish and could not control the "power" unlike him. He then ordered his guards to grab me so he could kill me and take the "power". I ran and started to head up the hill with the guards right behind me. I reached Caleb and told he we needed to fight. He nodded and started glow. It turned out that he was materializing his weapon and his powerful form.... which happened to be an alpaca.
He looked Like This
He had become larger then me and had a large cannon resting on his shoulder. I materialized my 2 pistols and we started charging down the slope. Caleb's cannon was destroying everything in its path leaving huge craters and dead guards everywhere. I was shooting the ones that manage to slip by and tried to sneak attack us. Sadly I woke up as we were charging down the hill.
So that's the end of the dream that I sorta remembered. Wasn't that a fun experience that you enjoyed greatly? n-no oh ok well I thanks for being honest...dick. Oh yeah I should also mention that I didn't notice it until out of the dream but I have this strange feeling that the girl that was our friend in this dream, was my girlfriend from my boring dream but oh well I guess I'll never know. Well anyway goodbye my friend or acquaintance or just some random person. See ya whenever the fuck I have another dream I like.
