Zombie Dream, in bits and pieces

Unfortunately, I can't remember most of this dream, so this is mostly going to be a bullet point summary

We started in the lobby of a 12 story hotel. We barricaded the doors and divided into groups of three, One on the 10th, one on the 11th, one on the 12th floor. I was on the 11th.

We blocked the doorways and essentially got rid of all contact with the other floors. We tried to live as normally as we can, though floor 11 took over roof and fire escape access so we can observe our surroundings.

At one point, a group of us tried to go up to floor 12 and it was in total chaos, we almost got shot and it appeared to have reverted to some sort of tribal state, where the 12th floor broke up into a few groups and they fought each other for food. We couldn't do anything to help with just the five of us, so we left and blocked them in again.

We went up to the roof to observe the surroundings. There were a lot of zombies milling about but they didn't seem interested at all. One of the guys I was with got pissed off and shot into the distance. We tackled him, and watched to see if the zombies could locate us, but luckily most of them actually headed in the direction the shot was fired, and very few stayed around us.

At one point I ended up alone on the third floor fire escape to get a closer look at things, and then went to patrol the floors. I found about two zombies on the lower floors, probably there from before we got there and were just missed. When I got up to the 7th floor, it looked like someone had completely ripped out the 8th floor, making the 7th two stories. At the end there was this giant contraption. Apparently the 10th floor had expanded downwards and were making sacrifices. Two women walked passed discussing the next day's sacrifice which apparently went that two people would fight each other to get out of the giant contraption, and once the first person was out then they would lock the other person on where they would get sprayed with some sort of drug and starve to death.

Unfortunately, of course, that means I was discovered and had to participate in this sacrifice, except now there were three people instead of two. When one person got out, I was about to reach the door but they closed it and gassed both of us. I know that some small boy helped me get out, and his father, him and I made it to the stairwell where we went back up to the 11th floor to report.

Hey look...

... I'm changing the quotes. It's only been a freaking long time. Needa keep it consistent and post the old quotes though.

Here they are

"Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for."

"Life's disappointments are harder to take when you don't know any swear words."


Righto.

Yes! New Zombie Dream.


This one began mid-outbreak. The zombies appeared to be somewhat intelligent. Not fast, but the would team up to try to break down a door/use door handles. A group of survivors and I were in what appeared to be a restaurant main lobby, that honestly wasn't very secure. The main lobby probably only lasted a day before the zombies were in, and 7 or 8 other survivors and myself made it to the kitchens and boarded up the room.

We survived in the kitchen for a few days before something happened and somehow one of them found us and there was pounding coming from the back door to the outside. We were unequipped (no guns, no training) but we focused on the fact that they all appeared to be out back and allowed 3 people to go out the front to look for help while we tried to hold the back door.

After a few hours, we were beginning to lose hope (and the zombies at the door were fucking persistent when they knew we were there) when we heard gunfire and someone calling to us for us to open the door. The three had returned with about 5 others that had guns and we felt a bit safer.

Unfortunately, after a little while something happened that caused me to need to go outside asap and draw the zombies away (I think I pulled the short straw) while only having a chopping board knife. I was supposed to loop back but I ended up being herded in one direction and had to run through a very deserted city hall. Somehow managed to make it far enough away to lose the zombies and ran across a 3 story tall apartment complex and tried my luck in it. There were some truly dumbass survivors in the main lobby, but they let me in and I yelled at them for standing in the main room of a nearly entirely glass building and not finding someplace concealed. I tried to give them tips, but it was too late. Zombies had spotted them through the glass and were making their way and piling up to break through.

I pretty much told the people in the lobby that they should have boarded stuff up and not let me in, for survival sake, and booked it upstairs to try rooms to see if any were secure. I found one on the top floor that apparently had really paranoid people in it, as all the doors (even the bedrooms) had special locks to them that I felt would be really secure. I went through and locked all the doors to all the side rooms so that if the zombies go in they wouldn't immediately know which room I was in. The room I settled in had two beds and there was a lump in one. Nervous, I went to go poke the lump and it turned out to be a young girl (probably 11 or 12) that was crying. Her family had left her alone for the day and never came back when the outbreak started.

I managed to calm her down and went out to the kitchen to move most of the food to the bedroom. The walls in the bedroom were all glass overlooking the street near the front of the building, but luckily all the blinds were closed. I watched as the zombies appeared to give up on the building, hoping that some of the others in the lobby made it somewhere safe.

The next day I heard movement in the living room, and watched as the door started to unlock to the room we were in. Freaking out, I grabbed the knife and had the girl hide in the adjoining bathroom when the door opened and there was a perfectly healthy guy standing there pointing a gun at me. It turns out that he was the dad of the little girl and he and his Son finally made it back home to check on the girl. With them they brought 6 other people and a shit load of guns.

We moved to the living room and opened a window that people could take turns shooting out of and picking off stray zombies if they walked past. While I was telling my story I noticed one of the 6 other people had been awkwardly holding his side and it made me suspicious. Good thing, too, because about half a day later the guy turned and I had to behead him with a newly acquired sword. We made everyone check for bites after that and everyone else turned up clear.

After a few days we were running low on food and hadn't seen a zombie walk past in a while, so we decided it was time to move on. We equipped ourselves as well as we could and exited the building, before staying down back roads trying to find another good place to set up camp. After a while we heard yelling and ducked into an open building, people flanking the door to peak outside. Down the road we saw people running at us, but they were clearly not zombies. They had seen us and seen what building we went into and ran straight to us, pointing their guns at us and forcing us to go with them.

I don't know if they were good or evil, trying to take over the new world. I know they looked ragged and were kinda gruff talking, but so were all of us. I just woke up as my group as being 'escorted' down a street to a building where they set up shop, and being yelled at because one of us was wearing red.

A less violent Hunger Games (I guess.)

I imagine this dream occurred because I finished The Hunger Games a few days ago, then have been musing about watching Battle Royal again.



From what I understand, the basic rules of the game is that there were two teams, 5v5, and each team had a bunch of information given to them and 15 questions that the other team had the answers to. If you managed to get the answers to all 15 questions,then combined it with your own knowledge then you could unlock untold riches. To get someone out of the games, there was no killing allowed but you were allowed to knock them unconscious where they would be suspended from the games for 36 hours, though some chose to make this is violent as possible to make the people returning useless.

I don't know how it all panned out, but I the first thing I remember is sitting in a large room talking to a bunch of old ladies about random goings on in life, when my teammate Mildred walks in and I ask her where our other teammate (whose name I don't recall other than it started with an M as well) was. Mildred told me she wasn't quite sure but she knew the other team decided to start taking hostages to try to get information out of us, and when they did, they'd replace the hostage and try to take another. The general setting appeared to be a large forest surrounded by mountains where you could look for caves.

This was probably not a good sign, so I took off while Mildred collected supplies from the old lady bunker. I found no sign of our other teammate but I did find three of the other team harassing my third teammate, Autumn, for information and slowly damaging her legs until she answered a question. To stop the torture, as I knew I couldn't take on three of them at once, I popped out from behind a tree and answered one of their questions, before standing in front of Autumn as a human shield. Luckily, Mildred managed to show up behind them and the leader of the group (who I shall call Jon, as you will see why in the next section) told his group to back down, and since we gave them some of the information willingly then he would release our teammate.

The other team, which consisted of a scrawny looking chick, a guy who vaguely resembled the guy who plays Jon Snow in Game of Thrones, and another guy who appeared to be Aldis Hodge (Hardison in Leverage). Their fourth teammate was probably guarding the hostage, and their fifth I had apparently rendered unconscious a few hours before finding the bunker. My fifth teammate was the only guy on our team and fit enough to be able to be useful, but that's all I recall about him.

My team regrouped, with Mildred and I helping Autumn walk, by a tree that vaguely reminded me of an Ent. After however long we had been playing, the opposing team had the answers to 6 of our questions, and we only had the answer to 4 of theirs. It was decided that I would go scout out a safer location to meet and see if I could find the other teams hide out. While hunting I ran across the guy who resembled Hardison on a rocky cliff side and there was a surprisingly dramatic battle that involved bo staffs and climbing on the rocks. We were evenly matched for the most part but when we were both exhausted, Hardison's teammates showed up and I, very quickly, became the hostage of the day.

The rest I remember involved being in a rather pleasant neck of the woods being questioned about the information and thinking it odd that the leader of the group was the one who was staying back.


No idea how it ended, if we won or not. I really wonder what would happen if you only got like, 25 of the 30 total clues and were able to find the location from that... would it be cheating?

More Zombies! Hurrah!

Well then, let's just get right into this one.


It begins with our protagonist, Patrick Stump, running with a guy who looks like he's a drill sergeant away from a bunch of extremely muddy people. Drill sergeant man helps Patrick over a fence but doesn't manage to make it over before he is overcome by the zombies and Patrick can't take too long to mourn his friend before he has to take off so the zombies don't catch him as they're starting to pile up before the fence and getting closer to climbing on each other to make it over. There was a long time of running, probably thirty minutes of so of running (Though in dream time this took maybe 2 minutes) until Patrick approached a really old, ornate building at the top of a hill in the distance and a few miscellaneous buildings a bit farther. It was clear that the area had been completely abandoned and so Patrick booked it up and into the ornate building and got the doors shut, the light illuminating the zombie's hands through the tinted windows as they pawed at the glass. All he could do was making sure the door was barred before he passed out from exhaustion.

We now skip to a montage of Patrick waking up and finding food in a basement area, Vala from Stargate SG-1 and I showing up, Jared Padelecki showing up with his few month old son, two more guys and Smity showing up, somehow managing to get a signal on a crank TV that some of the guys found scavenging, throwing a mini-celebration as we hear news of the army slowly getting rid of zombies, Vala on a phone talking to authorities about a movement and how things are going, finally news on how most everything is zombie free, Vala and Patrick ending up doing a pseudo relationship thing, Jared somehow getting in contact with his wife, and a full out celebration the day before the army was going to come pick us up and take us to this new community for survivors. Total time span was probably about 4-6 months.

Skip to a week or so after we've been moved to our new houses, Vala, Patrick, Jared, his Son, his wife, Smity and myself ending up staying in one fairly large house as the other few people stayed next door, having formed a bond after surviving a zombie apocalypse. We get word that it looks like some straggler zombies are headed towards the town, that is protected by the army but we still can't be too careful and I'm pretty sure there was a "aw, hell no!" thrown in as Jared, his Son (now about a year old) and I took off to go investigate. When we got there, we saw a decent amount of zombies (probably 30) scattered and coming up the path into town and the Army had stormtrooper syndrome and was missing horridly. Jared then handed me his son, ripped a signpost out of the ground and went and beat on the zombies to kill them (why he has super strength? No idea). There was a point where Jared lost the post and was knocked down, and one of the last zombies was about to get him when his son struggled out of my arms, ran to his dad, and punched the zombie so hard in the neck that it crushed the zombie's windpipe and incapacitated the zombie. Both Jared and I were shocked, but we went with it and returned home.



Whelp, that was only kinda weird.

1/30/11

And now we're Flying

Honestly, I don't think I could accurately do a weirdness warning for this dream... Just know that it follows three different people, who's sections will be signified by a ------[Title]------. I was not in this dream at all.


-----[The Man]-----
This begins with the Man, his Wife, his Sister, and his friend at the top of a tower in city called "Flying". This tower had been locked up, and no one really had been up there for a few generations but the Man had finally talked a crew into investigating it. At the top of the tower there was a rusty iron hang glider that the Man had taken intense interest in and was in the process of talking his family into letting him try it out even though the Wife keeps pointing to old documents that show that every single previous attempt on the glider has been a horrible failure. The Man decides to say sucks to his Wife's advice and ends up just taking off right there, using the argument that they're in a city named Flying, why is no one trying to fly.

The flight is a relative success, the Man lands with just a few cuts and scrapes and maybe a bruised rib a few miles away and he's so freaking excited that he has to do it again relatively soon. This is when things go bad, as the Man finds the next relatively tall building and takes another jump, only to get caught in some sort of updraft, lose control, and black out.

-----[The Sister, a year later]-----
The Sister and her friend were boarding a small airplane with three doors that fit roughly 18 people when the friend all of a sudden got a weird look and he told her something was weird and turned right before he got on the plane, with her already stepping inside and as soon as she did the door closed right behind her and he couldn't get inside the plane after that, the stewardess telling her to take her seat and he'd have to get on a later flight. As the flight started to taxi down the runway, there were checks done to make sure the three doors were closed and the first two managed to close while the third door, the one located close to the cockpit was flung open by the momentum and the people couldn't reach the pilots to stop. All of the passengers buckled in and held on for their lives, not sure how long they had left, and once they were at a high enough altitude things began to break on the small plane and one by one the people were sucked out of the plane into oblivion. The Sister was the last person to be sucked out and as she was falling she muttered the irony of the fact that she was from a town called Flying and yet flying was gonna be the end of her.

-----[The Man, Two years later]-----
The Man shows up outside the Museum that has a connection to his house and awkwardly shifts as he knows he's been gone for a while, but he's not exactly sure how long because no one would tell him when he woke up and he went straight back home, thanking the people who's house he had woken up in. He enters the back room of the museum where workers are examining pieces that will be on display once they pass some tests and hears a gasp from the old Asian woman who had always been a family friend, and was head curator at the museum. She tells him he had been gone for twelve years and then tells him exactly where to find his Wife. His Wife, however, tells him he's only been gone for twelve days. The Man doesn't believe either of them, and is completely weirded out by the cheery disposition of everyone in the town. Later that night it is explained to him by his friend from earlier (who happened to be Jared Padalecki) that someone came into town a week ago and essentially forced the entire town to be overly happy and it was creeping him out. There was also a conversation about whether Supernatural had been renewed still after Jared had explained that it had been two years since his incident.

The next day the old Asian lady was explaining in grave terms what happened to his Sister when he feels a sudden pain and everything goes black, permanently.

-----[The Wife, sorta.]-----
The Wife, possessed by the angry spirit of the Sister and more than likely the creepy person that forced everyone to be happy, had stuck her hand through the Man and caused him to turn into colored flakes of gold. She then did the same with the old Asian woman while everyone else screamed in terror and ran out of the museum. There was a small interlude where the Wife then went to go get skittles but couldn't eat them because when she touched them they turned into rainbow colored gold flecks.



I'm pretty sure that's when my brain decided it was too freaking weird, because then I woke up.

Under Za Sea

More Strangeness.


This began with my family and I on a long boat (two people across, 20 people back, ish) on a trip to begin whale watching while my dad talked about how he used to run this tour. Within 10 minutes there was a incredibly long orca whale swimming in front of the boat, even stopping and letting me (at the very front of the boat) to touch it before diving deep in the ocean. We were able to find another three or four whales within 30 minutes and the tour guide commented how odd it was to even find one. Once we were far enough away from the coast that we couldn't see it anymore there was a splash and a guy had dove out of the boat and was swimming downwards. Almost simultaneously myself, an average girl, a guy that was similar to the action heroes of zombie movies, and a tall elf-like man (who was still human, but that's the best way I could describe his figure) dove after the first man who just kept swimming deeper and deeper.

Once we got far enough we realized we had no issue breathing underwater and the pressure wasn't affecting us. We approached a colony that was kinda reminiscent of the Little Mermaid and noticed other people swimming around observing these bright green patches. We swam up to these people and asked what they were doing and they told us that they were farming patches of baby krill because some man was going around and killing patches of the ocean floor and these baby krill could help heal the patches if they were placed in the center. The elf-man described the man who had jumped off our boat and these people confirmed that that was the guy attacking the ocean and gave us a vague direction for where to find him.

My mind skipped to the four of us finding the man and beating him while swimming back to shore, however it was a different shore than we originally took off from. When we defeated the man he apparently lost his ability to breathe underwater and by the time we got up there he was dead. We dropped off his body anonymously at a local police station, I called my family, and we went to research where in the world we ended up.

We found an inn where the innkeeper put us up for the night but we had to stay in the kitchen because all the rooms were full. We were happy enough to have a place to sleep and eat that we didn't care and just passed out, the elf-man falling asleep in the bathtub because it was most comfortable for him.

The innkeeper woke us up abruptly at around 3 in the morning telling us that two threatening men were looking for us and it didn't look good at all. We had to hurry out, making her promise to hide the elf-man who we couldn't get to and gave her a rendezvous point so we could find him again. The three of us ran out the door just as the two men came running into the kitchen and saw us leaving. We though the city, which appeared to be a semi-deserted Rome, with a population of only about a thousand I'm guessing and bobbed and weaved around buildings to try to throw them off our tail before hopping over this wall and onto a grassy patch where we pressed ourselves against the wall and waited and listened for the two men to pass. Once they, FINALLY, did we had to discuss a plan to figure out what to do now once we met up with elf-man again, as they were clearly after us for taking care of the guy in the ocean and we stumbled into something we probably shouldn't have.


Then I woke up.

1/23/11

Something rather strange.

This was probably one of my more strange dreams, and there's a lot of time skips so time skips will be signified by
-------------------------[time period skipped]-----------------------------


It started with my mom and I at an airport buying five plane tickets to Italy, for Paige, Caitlin, Kevin, John and myself. I ended up having to call Caitlin to make sure she could go before we bought the ticket, because you never know.

----------------[Short Period after arriving in Italy]-----------------

I had apparently ditched everyone to go meet up with this random woman who took me through an elevator that went down then sideways then up again to open into a random warehouse where there were three guys sitting around the back that I was introduced to, then she went to hit on one of the guys while telling me to go introduce myself to the guys in front.

I walked to the front of the building to see two guys sitting in a shop that was attached to the warehouse. While the guys in the back were more bulky (not creepily so, but still, they were pretty buff and looked like they could punch your face in) these guys looked younger and lanky. It was obvious they could still kick some ass but that wasn't their primary concern. The one behind the counter was setting up some long cords that led to monitors back in the warehouse while the other guy was placing small objects on his person and checking a small laptop to make sure everything was okay. I figured out, after telling them I was the new member of the team, that they were about to send the guy putting stuff all over him on a mission to retrieve information from the target, and if he succeeded we'd get paid even more even though the main purpose was to kill the man we were stealing information from.

All of us except the guy going on the mission then crowded around the TVs in the back while the guy left and we got a first person view of his mission. Once he arrived at the target's building he peered around the front floor windows trying to look for any first floor entrances, though it was pretty obvious he wouldn't find any. He then used the cover of large plants to activate his backpack that produced six large spider legs that would help him scale the wall so he could find the target's office, as this building didn't belong to the target he just owned a few of the offices on the 4th floor. Our guy then had to hide behind pillars and other convenient things whenever guards that were patrolling the outside looked up (which wasn't that frequent, we muttered something about how people should really look up more). Our guy then saw three female triplets enter through the front door via a machine that could crack a lock and one of them looked directly at him but nothing more was heard from them throughout the dream, perhaps they had other stuff to deal with, perhaps they were trying to steal the same stuff we were.

Our guy finally got into the building and into the office using more nifty gadgets from his backpack. He then had to locate the discs that would have the information we needed and while he was looking around he saw a slim PS2, but right above that he saw a plant sitting on one of the bulky PS2s and he opened the bulky PS2 to see FF-XIII, removed that game, closed the PS2 and opened it again which allowed him to unlock the top part of the CD enclosure and find a stack of 3 discs that were the ones we needed.

Unfortunately, it was at this time that our target showed up and got the upper hand on our guy and knocked him out and we lost the feed.

--------------[PoV change, not very far into the future]-------------
Skip to a 3rd person point of view with our tech guy waking up and being strapped to a wall while he notices that all of his tech is on a table on the other side of the room.

And, unfortunately, that's all my dream told me about him in that situation, hope we ended up rescuing him.

-------------[Flashback that doesn't make any sense]-------------
The real reason this doesn't make any sense is because earlier I had introduced myself to these guys, and this takes place with these guys clearly before what just happened.

It started with myself and the tech guy that got captured sitting on a bench next to a raised podium where Spaceboy from Umbrella Academy was giving a speech. We sat around talking about Doctor Who while the other guy from the front of the store who sat up the TV was breakdancing in front of us. We weren't really paying attention to Spaceboy's speech we just knew it was about to end and looked up to see him eating a scarab and then everybody applauding the end of his speech. He then went on to introduce the Queen who had to walk to the podium from the back of the room, but she was an old lady so it took her a few minutes to get up there. The reason that was important is because this chick was supposed to sing while she approached the podium, but what she was supposed to sing was only about four words long so she had to sing the last note for about 3 minutes before she could stop. I then handed the Queen a champagne glass filled with water.

Then I woke up.

Oh Boy~ 3 New(ish) Dreams

Well, two are really new in the sense that I had them last night, one is kinda new in the sense that i had it about a month ago and just posted a small quip about it on facebook.

We're gonna start with the facebook one and go in order of having them, I guess (also, it fills me with weird joy that the word "facebook" is red squiggle underlined).


This dream started with me standing next to Sephiroth while doing absolutely nothing for about 30 seconds before he transitioned to Ezio and we were on top of a roof with some final goal in mind because I had to follow him while jumping from roof to roof. We ended up breaking through a small window and managing to slide through it to end up in a tub, in my bathroom.

It is at this time that Ezio shifted again into Gerard Way and we were sitting on the edge of the tub discussing this one pirate videogame that we couldn't name when Frank Iero walked in and gave us weird looks. I then went walking up and down my street and every few houses, in the space between two houses there was this mysterious fog and a ghost ship appeared and a giant skull hung in front of it and I had to talk to this floating skull a few times before it would tell me the name of the videogame that Gerard and I were talking about (which I learned was called "on strange tides", like the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie).

As soon as I got this information and went back into my house to tell Gerard, my house shook and transformed into a pirate ship that ended up at the top of my neighborhood next to the ghost ship where I got information from, which was manned by zombie pirates. We then had to race the zombie pirates down my street to see who could get to the gate first but the zombies cheated and managed to place a bomb that blew up the ship when we were remarkably close to the end and we floated in the water when we realized this was better because then we wouldn't crash into the gate to get through, we just had to swim under it, and so we still managed to beat the zombie pirates by swimming the last way, but when they finally got through the gate, their ship also destroyed, we decided that because they cheated (and they were zombies) we had to destroy them.


Dream two, the first of last night

This dream started with me stumbling into the forest from a river, pretty beat up and completely out of it. There appeared to be no people or buildings for miles and that I was alone in a vast wilderness until, after a while of stumbling through the forest, two dogs (Divot and Tuttle - the labs from next door) found me and then their owner, Tom Hardy, followed them to where they found me. He had a pretty large house near the road that went thought he forest (still a bit of a distance from the road, but you could at least see it from there) and then behind the house there was a smaller cottage-like building with a main room, a small kitchen and a bathoom where Tom said I could live however long I needed to.

Here is the part where I feel like a missed a major plot point in my dream but time skipped to about half a year from then so I was completely better and it appeared that Tom Hardy and I had a vague agreement but we really weren't very good friends. I think met someone who went by the name of "Panther" and together, he and I called the authorities that showed up at Tom's house where I ran up and told them (with Tom standing near me) that Tom had been doing -enter bad thing here that was that plot thing that I missed- and they took Tom away while I inherited the house and the dogs and gave "Panther" the cottage that I had been staying in as well as this newer building to the left of the house, closer to the road that he used to open up a restaurant.


I feel pretty bad for betraying Tom Hardy after all he did for me, I really wish I knew what I blamed him for.

Final one, Definitely the shortest.

It started with me and four other people being about half way up a thirty story tall building during a Zombie invasion that was slowly working it's way up the building. We were talking to Plastic Man and Beast on walkie talkies and Beast came up with the plan that if Plastic Man, who was outside the building but safe enough from the zombies, could make sure all the zombies get into the building we could make our way to the top of the building to meet Beast on the roof, while setting charges for bombs on our way up. Once Plastic Man made sure the zombies were all in the building, he could then set charges around the first few levels using his stretching skills and then stretch up to come get us from the roof and bring us back down to safety where Beast would then set off the bombs and level the building and the zombies with it, stopping the outbreak. Essentially, we agreed to this and were working our way up when I woke up

10/9/10

A camping we will go.

'Nother zombie dream. Happened when I was napping which was weird.


The first thing I remember happening is waking up in a chair in the middle of a camper and looking around to see 5 people sleeping on beds in the back, two people up front and another guy sleeping in a chair next to me. Also, My cat Wally was sitting in my lap, rather tame. I hopped up and asked what the status was from the two people in the front and apparently they hadn't seen anyone in a while as we were driving through the country in the middle of nowhere headed to less populated towns on the east coast, as the infection had started in the north west and we had heard it hadn't reached to the east coast yet and our driver knew someone who kept a pretty secure house.

I'll stop the explain the infection that seemed to work like this. The sign of the infected was very obvious, as the infected always went for the neck or hands, so people never trusted anybody that covered those two parts of the body, and those were the only signs of infection. For the most part the infected acted relatively normal, especially within the first few days of infection they could still hold conversation and plan, but as soon as they saw someone that was not infected they went on a rampage to kill them. This was especially horrible because that meant during the first few days of infection they would form packs and go hunting in them. They didn't truly lose their minds until about the 5-7 day of infection where they would spend most of their time searching, completely ignoring all other human needs.

Back to the present. We continued driving for another hour or two, though even then it was still around 3 AM so there was virtually no light out and we drove without headlights on, when the road started to narrow even more (as we were taking back roads) and all of the sudden we were blinded by lights and there were people in the road with guns wearing large jackets. We woke everybody up quickly, minus the one child (age 8-11 or so) with us and grabbed guns just in case while people started firing at us when we didn't slow down and they manged to get us pretty bad where we swerved off the road and tumbled down a hill and had to scramble out of the truck, while I grabbed Wally and one of the others grabbed the kid. We managed to make it pretty far from the camper when we found this cargo truck on the side of a road, a man sleeping in the passenger seat and we carefully approached, grabbing and pulling the man (dead with pills in his hand) out of the cab part of the truck then getting everybody else into the truck, which had a convenient hole to get directly back into the cargo area and we checked that out to make sure it was free of infected. We drove longer and got to a state (I believe... Georgia?) on the east coast when something happened abruptly and it was a mass chaos of guns and running and other people, infected and not, and I managed to get away with Wally following after me and the driver who knew the way to the safe house.

Time skipped here until we got to the safe house hours later while hijacking a normal car and the neighborhood was quite, as if it hadn't been touched by the infection which was a good sign as we took that as the infection hadn't gotten that far. We knocked on the door at the end of a cul-de-sac and got buzzed into this caged area where a few teenage guys were standing with guns pointed at us while another older guy walked in, saw our driver and the lack of marks we had on our hands and necks and let us in. He then gave us the tour around the insanely safe looking house and I let Wally have the free roam of the house while we talked of the situation in the garage (which was right next to the bathroom and across from the laundry room, where spongebob was playing on the tv) myself, one of the young girls who was at the house, the old man who's house it was, and the driver were outside checking around seeing what cars would be useful if all else failed and trying to move them too the garage when we heard crashes and I looked behind to see people running at us looking manic while the girl was still 10 feet behind and wouldn't run towards me. I tried to wait as long as I could but it was too late and the infected got her while I had to dive into a truck and lock the doors and hide from sight. It eventually calmed down and the driver came out of the house and knocked no the car door window, giving me the sign I could get back into the house, while now I had to step over hundreds of nails welded upwards in lines to get into the house (as the infected would just step on the nails and cripple themselves). We mourned the loss of the girl and I went to go change into some spare clothes from the lady of the house, who had been ill for over a year (not infected ill, just normal ill) and was up in the master bedroom. We then hear a knock on the door and someone begging for us to let them in and the door is opened and this guy in a large, mischlein man coat, walks into the cage area. Apparently this man was an evil man in general, having poisoned the house owner's wife and causing her to be ill, so the house owner told us to let him into the cage and we watched has he (pretty brutally) killed this infected guy.


Then I woke up.

Supernatural and Zombie-like people.

Just gonna get into this. I actually wasn't in this dream a lot.


It started with Sam walking up to Dean who was sitting on a wooden fence by the side of the road that was right next to the entrance of a forest. Sam asked Dean what he was doing there, because apparently they had been separated, and Dean told him that where he was was the location to meet up with Cas and I.

Sam then wakes up in the passenger seat of the Impala with Dean sleeping in the drivers seat and me stretched out napping in the back. We were by the side of a road a few miles away from a city in the middle of a desert and the sun was just about to start rising when Sam looks behind us and says "Oh shit" and wakes Dean and I up. Behind us was a jeep with four people who looked extremely sick in it (like, dripping noses and off colored skin), the four people then jumped out of the jeep and started 'running' (more like powerwalking) towards us. I then wanted to slap myself in the dream because I suggested that they might need help, but Dean just started driving off. I compared the sickness to a less violent croatoan virus.

This was apparently the very beginning of a mass infection, as then there were very many flashes of those four people infecting other people, then those people infecting more. There was one scene that really stuck out, which is where there was a sick person in a tree and it sneezed and the mucus got on a man in a open top double decker bus who then sneezed and a minute later the entire bus was sick and pulled over at the side of a road.

Apparently then I went missing as the next time I saw the boys was when Sam was in the garage of an abandoned house with a sweet old lady motherly type who doesn't get out often and therefore wasn't sick. Dean had gone out to get something and Sam was waiting for Dean to call so he could make a plan to get out of the house without letting the infected in for the lady, who was heavily stocked and could last a good long while in that house. He got the call, sent the lady back inside, and opened one of the three garage doors before barrel rolling out underneath it before it got too high and jumping into the car just as the infected started heading their way. Sam then remembered his dream (the one with Dean sitting by the road) and asked Dean if he knew any location similar to what he described in the dream. Apparently Dean knew just the place and headed that way when the dream flashed to Cas and I running heading through the forest to meet the boys at the location.


It was... Interesting to say the least

I've been watching too much Supernatural

Short, Random Dream. Also, Stars are starting to work their ways into my dreams because I've been having quite a few random ones about comic-con.

It started out with Dean, Sam, and I chilling in a hotel room at some giant ass resort that also had a waterpark. No idea why we were there or why I was with them, but whatever. Sam and I were looking for new hunts in newspapers while Dean was peaking out the window at girls in swimsuits and trying to talk us into staying a night there, which we eventually decided to because it was already getting rather late in the day.

We then segued into a conversation about a live action Johnny Bravo Movie, where we couldn't remember who the actor was who was going to play Johnny, so I went on a mission to this little directory/information area where I got directed to these two guys who looked like the random FBI guys that show up twice in the first season of Leverage (sorry for all who don't watch Leverage). The guys then looked at me odd for my question and typed something into the computer, made a very stupid joke, and handed me a piece of paper that had some obscure squiggly drawing on it. I just scoffed, rolled my eyes, and walked away.

When walking back to the room, I ran across Dean who was talking to a few girls and when he saw me he threw me the Impala keys and told me that the gas tank was running low and I should go get gas. At first I was stunned that he was letting me drive the impala, and then rolled my eyes because he didn't even ask, he demanded. I went to get gas and burgers anyway, driving past a billboard that said that Sean Penn was going to be Johnny Bravo (wat.)

When I got back to the hotel, it was late and the boys were both asleep and then there was a time skip to the morning where we were checking out and talking to the lady who owned the hotel, where apparently there had been a murder in a locked room last night with no evidence. Dean cheered, because apparently we had a case there while Sam booked another room and I looked at magazines.

Space - The Final Frontier

First dream I actually really remember since the last post. Other than the one that consisted of Woody, Dakota, and I driving up to Yosemite and Woody just relentlessly mocking Dakota the entire time. Though, there was more to that dream that I can't remember, one of those moments that makes you think "Yup, I'm dreaming". Even then, I don't remember too much of this dream.


The first thing I remember is being pushed and shoved into what looked like a crate that you would find on a dock (Or, for those people who have played Sonic Adventure Battle two, the crates that you can get to on Knuckle's Space level) with a bunch of other people, including Jeffery Dean Morgan and another famous guy (I wanna say Chris Evans, because I've been on a The Losers kick lately). where there was a bunch of screaming and crying until JDM yelled at everyone to be quiet so he could think, and I somehow managed to slow the passage of time for me because I was getting a headache and it made the noise go slower and for some reason softer. The other guy (who I'll just refer to as Chris Evans, cause It's easier) noticed something was off about me and went over to me and I snapped back to reality, and then the guys and I tried to make a plan to get out of the crate where no one would get hurt.

All we managed to do was find a significant crack in the back top corner that we could probably bust through with enough force and the guys who forced us into the crate opened up the doors and pointed guns at us and told us to move our asses. This is when we noticed that we were on a spaceship, there being windows in the hold for some reason. JDM then punched one of the guys in the face and took his gun while Evans snuck up on another guy and got him in a choke hold, turning it into a rather awkward double hostage situation. after a standoff (Baddies who actually cared about one of their teammates, who knew.) reinforcements for the baddies came and we got taken over, including JDM being shot in the arm and Evans being punched a few times.

We were eventually placed in this line, that looked suspiciously like the line to get on Riddler's Revenge at Magic Mountain, to be placed into what looked like a monorail to be ejected into space. In the line next to me, there was a young boy, couldn't be more than Ten or Eleven, who I noticed kept flickering like a TV with bad reception, so I slowed down everything around me and watched the kid move with super speed to the guards and steal their things. So when he was back to casual standing in between the stealing I started to chat with him, and had to communicate to JDM and Evans to come over to my line, which was closer to the front of the tram. We then came up with a plan for me and the Kid to use his powers to clear a path and then for me to use my powers around the other two to get to the front of the tram so we could try to hijack it before it took off, and reset the course to Earth, as it was currently headed to an uninhabitable planet farther off than Pluto.


I woke up then, not sure if we succeeded, still not sure why were were being shoved around and almost killed. It was strange.

I also had a like, 10 minute dream in the same night where I was at the movie theatre seeing an action movie and yelling at a guy to stop playing on his iPad the entire movie and a girl who kept getting phone calls, when suddenly the lights turn on and I hear "HOLY SHIT, It's Ross Perot!" and apparently Ross Perot and his apparent wife and Son were watching the movie. He made a speech.

Go go Spider-Sara

So, I had a dream that I was Spiderman(woman, whatever)

What was even more random was that I was at a college that was like, Half UCSD half AVC and I walked into this class that I was apparently taking that was taught by Normal Osborn, and I'm not being really inconspicuous (Cause like, I was wearing a spiderman hoodie...) and sat in the back with some friends that I've never seen before to talk about final fantasy before Proff. Osborn came up to me and asked me what I was doing in the back as apparently I was a genius student and had a permanent seat in the front. So after I escaped that class (and he wanted me to stay for the next class he taught which was math instead of robotics) I went and moved my car to the other side of campus and went to my History class taught by Cassidy, which apparently Norman Osborn was also in.

A Dream (With Zombies, but no Pegasus)

This Dream is kinda quick because I don't remember too much about it.

So it starts with this guy who reminds me of Steve Carell sitting in a small shop that is in what appears to be an outdoor mall. The shop has a back room, a bathroom and glass Windows. It's probably about two months into the zombie infestation based on the lack of a significant amount zombies and Steve's impartial attitude towards the fact that it's the middle of the day in an outlet mall and there is nobody around. Also, there is a Zombie/thing in the back room. I wouldn't really call it a Zombie because it was more sentient than the other Zombies but it (very obviously a Man, let's call him Josh) looked pretty banged up and Steve has had conversations with him about him having been bitten but not fully changed. This makes Josh a valuable Asset in the long run.

Josh, if wearing enough clothing, passes off as a human enough to go outside with Steve whenever they're searching for enough food, but Steve generally leaves him behind to hold the fort. Steve leaves off for a Grocery store that he has never been to as the previous one ran out of stock and there are stories that this store has been able to keep restocking even during the infestation. He gets there (coming across one or two zombies on the way, no big deal) and picks up some food while talking to the owner, when it seems like 30 or so zombies come out of nowhere and are by the front of the store. The store is pretty well protected so it's not too big of an issue but Steve wants to get home and the shop owner (random brunette lady) talks about how she has an underground tunnel to her house, which is closer to his shop thing and he thanks her before taking the tunnel and returning.

Pretty large time shift to where Steve hears about this party held by people who are pretty well known zombie slayers, but kinda douche bags and Steve doesn't approve of their methods so they're kinda enemies. Steve goes to the party and is talking to the son of the head of the group and the Son shows Steve his father's Van that has been turned into a weird type of mobile home with enough room for The father and Son. Shit goes down when the father comes out and sees that the son has shown Steve important shit and Steve takes his queue to leave, arriving back to his shop to see Josh taking care of some zombies and there being a hole in the shopfront window. After the zombie issue is done Steve just sighs and starts packing, talking about how they have to move /again/

A Dream (without Zombies, but has Pegasus to make up for it)

So I don't remember too much of the main concept other than the fact that almost every person in the world was trapped in their minds/imaginations. So it was generally viewed as a good thing if the person wasn't aware of what the hell was going on.

It started with these two Men (Let's call them Arthur and Merlin, because one was a warrior and the other was a Wizard. I've been watching that show too much.) meeting in a different person's mind (I don't know how they got there, but both of them ended up there). The imagination wasn't that exciting, it was essentially a medium sized city and no real intense shit was going on. The guys didn't know what to do and after the initial 'what the hell?' discussion went meandering around. People could acknowledge their presences but it wasn't like they were really there so they had to get information from listening in to conversations. Don't remember this part too well but they eventually found the owner of the imagination and before they got to speak to her(him? don't remember) there was a phase shift to another person's mind.

They eventually got through three or four different minds without being able to actually talk to the person who's mind it was before ending up in a forest where I was sitting and staring at a tree trying to figure out how to cut it down so I could make a bow and some arrows. They had a chat with me (which was a first for them and they tried to get as much information as they could) and Arthur helped me find some tools that would help me with the tree and then I directed them through the forest to this giant castle where everything was going on in the imagination, which was much more vast than the others that they had been to. They got to the castle, that had an amazing amount of white horses, and everyone acknowledged who they were and the lord and lady of the castle walked out to size them up. They eventually ended up giving Merlin a room and threw Arthur into a large caged tower in the center (well, it was like a solid brick tower but the door was a giant cage door) to take down this giant Yeti/elephant/stone creature to test his might. He took it down after a while but they left him in the tower thing and Merlin had to sneak around and scale the walls of the castle while avoiding guards that stood on top of the walls. He got pretty far and was standing just out of sight of a guard (a little above him and to the right, and since the guard thought he was higher than any infiltrator he’d never look up) preparing to cast some spell when he got clipped by an arrow from a guard on the ground who was directed by the lady of the castle. He got caught and the lord and lady let Arthur go as to have him watch them take Merlin to this underground cave area with a giant lake where there were more white horses that then shook and spread what looked like wings. Turns out they were Pegasus. The people of the castle/town area then made Merlin drink from the lake and it turns out that drinking from the lake turned him into a Pegasus. Pegasus!Merlin then followed Arthur around as he stayed in the forest around the castle so he could figure out how the heck to turn Merlin back.

I woke up before Merlin got turned back, they figured out who’s dream it was (It was probably mine, I’m always important in my dreams even if I’m not there too much) or if everyone was stuck staying in the imaginations (I imagine that if this scene was so different, it was probably around the starting point, so I might have been unintentionally evil).



So yeah, interesting dream. When they went through the first four or so dreams I kind of felt like the Benny hill song should be playing.

"The unreal is more powerful than the real, because nothing is as perfect as you can imagine it. because its only intangible ideas, concepts, beliefs, fantasies that last. stone crumbles. wood rots. people, well, they die. but things as fragile as a thought, a dream, a legend, they can go on and on."

Posting Again.

I love how whenever I look back on things I realize I'm a whiny Bitch.

Gonna turn this into a Dream log essentially, or when I see something really awesome (Like, How to Train your Dragon, which I saw today and was the cutest thing on the face of this planet.)

Also, this website is hilarious. Bad Translator

Been watching Stargate: SG-1, Balancing Videogames and Schoolwork. Might occasionally rant about those.

Meh

Well, the wedding (not the actual wedding, the reception) depressed me a lot, mainly because it was me sitting in the back of the room drinking non-alcoholic drinks while everybody else danced to crappy music.

I just want to leave. I want to win the lottery and go to like... Madrid or /something/. I think it'd be far more interesting than my life currently.

Kinda worried about class registration that's on Monday the 6th. Still haven't done that damn councilors appointment.

I just. Ergh.

And These are the Best Years of our Lives.

Here I sit, in a hotel room in North Carolina at 12:39 PM East Coast, 9:39 PM West coast, writing while my parents sleep-and my father snores-in the next bed over.

I'm here for my cousin's wedding. I haven't seen this cousin since I was roughly three or four, which is forever and a day being eighteen now. This wedding was really just an excuse to get the entire family in one place. The only one we're missing is my cousin Riki. Been here for one full day and I must say, it's been one of the most interesting days of my life.

We're in a hotel across the street from an enormous Mall (Macy's and a Dillard's), with one of the stores being interestingly named "Dick's Sporting goods". My family, I expected this from my immediate family but wasn't so sure about the uncles and cousins, decide that we need to go to Dick's and buy shirts that just say "Dick's" on them so we can wear them to the pre-wedding party and scare the groom's family. Unfortunately, this store is intelligent and doesn't carry shirts that say Dick's. Fortunately, however, they do sell drink cozies that say Dick's. We end up buying about thirteen of those and take them to the party.

But it wasn't until we got back from the party that things start to happen that make me think. From 9:00 until Midnight the entire family (about fifteen of us) hang out in my hotel room and chat about everything and tell stories. My favorite of the stories was when we were talking about my Grandfather (who died when I was four) and my brother and I were talking about how we didn't get to know him much, so my cousin's date decides to take the opportunity to say that we'll see him again someday. Then there is a kinda silent awkward pause and my brother quips "Yeah, 'cause we're /all/ going to hell" and everybody starts laughing to the point of almost crying.

I guess what I'm trying to say is:

As I'm sitting here, I've gotta thing, that there isn't much that really gets better than times like this. I'm fresh out of high school, eighteen, and about to encounter the real world. I'll make new friends, I'll make new memories, and there will be ups and downs. But I know that when I'm thinking back on the great times in my lives, a hell of a lot will come from the past few years. Growing up, hanging out with friends, traveling, telling funny stories with/about my family, and learning while still being a child and being able to depend on people. This is what I'll love, and this is what I hope will continue.

-Peace.

The Three things that have made me cry.

... Well, in fictional stories, at least.

I don't usually get attached to characters enough to cry when something happens. Usually it's just a "aw, dammit, not again!" type of feeling and ranting about it for a while. But nope, these are the three things so far that have really touched me enough to make me cry.

-The end of Where the Red Fern Grows when I was in fifth grade. Dammit, that was depressing, and it was about dogs. I couldn't take it. I was bawling.

-The end of Final Fantasy VII Crisis Core. I went into that game knowing that Zack was going to die, that he had to die for the plot to continue. But nope, When that time came around I was sobbing in the back a rental van in Texas, while on vacation.

-And here I sit, Reading the Batman 687 comic I bought today that focuses around the death of Batman. So far I've known about his death for a few months, and I've never come close to crying for my beloved childhood superhero. But when Superman asked Alfred if he was alright and Alfred's reply was: "Am I 'all right'? No, sir. I am not. My son has died." That just let loose the tears. And then Dick and Alfred Cry two pages after. Dammit.

The only other things that got me close to crying was when Beckett died in SGA, and then in Interstella 5555 when Shep died.

Balls.

-Peace
