AWESOME TITLE

Wow, I just had a dream I had totally forgotten I had had once.  Although it's a lot more like I read about it first than experienced it.

Anyway experience first.

I went up to a pictured dark valley, the valley of hell that'd I'd have to go through, sorting through all the issues of my life before I could be whole.  I braced myself, then jumped right as the guy showed up.  I clambered against the cliff and got back up, and he told me he wished me luck, and that he wanted to give me something before I went.  He took out a gold amulet, that had a picture of a lion doing that standing-up thingy that you see on ancient family crests.  I asked him why it had that on there, he said that it would turn from the King of Lions into other things as I changed.  Then, wishing me well, he pushed me off.

I fell through the darkness for a while, while my thoughts carried me to this.

Something happened, it had to do with a spell that was making me artificially a woman.  Wired.  It was from a long time ago, apparently, and it was offsetting my balance or something like that.  It'd happened ten years ago, I can remember when it happened.  It was sort of more or less voluntary, and it might have been the key to something else.

Anyhow I got it dissolved, and the woman who cast it on me got mad at me and started trying to hold me back (we were both naked btw, nothing erotic, just plain frikin naked.)  I started running away, did some flips and a jump and flew away, but she caught me in the torso with a bullet, and since I'm not that swell at flying anyways, I wound up crash landing in the forest of my garden.

There I sat and took the bullet out, and tried to address the wound, and she ran up to me.  I remember she did some things, I can't remember what.  I kept asking her what was her name, the first few times she said "Rae" (which I think she answered because she looked a little like a photoshopped photo of Rae), then "the witch of Aldone."  She kept alternatively trying to run away and beat me up.  Psycho.

Eventually I had pinned her down, but she wouldn't answer any more questions so I let her go.  Then I sat back down, trying to dress my wounds, when she ran by me really fast and dumped some color paint on me.  (specifically on the groin) She did it again, and the pain struck right before she did it again.  I think the pain only happened because I let it though.

I brushed off the pain and grabbed her again and started demanding information from her.  She kept refusing, or I kept not hearing her, and I don't remember why but I started shooting at her.  I think I put a total of five in before I realized she wasn't moving. I bent down to check for a pulse, and she bit me.

This caused me to fire again, once, I think, and I picked her up and started carrying her.  She started squirming though and trying to kick me so I tied her up, injected her with sedative and then went back to trying to get to the edge of the forest.

When I got there, the guy showed up and said we'd better get her to the hospital.  I went, how do you expect me to fly with this load?  I can barely do it myself!  He said just try.

So I did, I went up, and tried without much success because I kept dropping her.  We had to settle for a cliff, and apparently she was better because when I set her down her wounds were scabbed and not bleeding.  I think I'd ignored this for some time.

I felt the presence of Anush at this point.  The guy was there, I think they went off to talk about something, while I talked to her.  At this point she told me that she was more or less a reflection of myself, and then she said she was spawned from the energy shared by me and Rae from long past.

Now that I think about it, she was probably trying to strike a nerve somewhere.

I don't think much happened after that.

Now to the dream.

I feel like I've read about it as a story before, it's so weird.  I was in this house... or game or something.  Maybe.

OH!  I think I played it as a game in a dream once.

I can't remember all of it... it had something to do with people being turned into zombies.  It had a very real feel about it though.

I remember... there were some people I was living with who were turned into zombies, but sort of like Bioshock zombies, but saner.

And it had happened during the course of several days.

I remember most specifically that there was a computer that I really needed access to in order to escape from the people I was with and to learn the full story behind what had happened.

*I remember some thing involving school....

It's all coming back ot me as I write it.  It's going to be rather incomplete.

But I remember that I really needed to get on that computer, and at the point that I had just figured out that I really needed to get on it, the computer started up differently,

*And there was people, a living room, a peer out in the car waiting it out...

and when I started it up I got the message

*and I remember a bathroom with a heat lamp

the message was something like "Hey if you want to get on the computer just wait and don't type in the password to Microsoft startup 185" and I remember going on a big scramble for the password, I knew it but I just needed to do something to remember it

*and there was a kid

and I got the password

*a TV set with some of the people on it (trying to control me? or talk to me?  or warn me?)

and right as I got the password the computer restarted, and started back up normal, but I needed it to startup with 185 so that I could get the info I was looking for, so I had to do a little hacking to get it to start up again and boot 185.

I think I succeeded, and got info,

*I remember cards in a darkish room with pics of the people on them

and I was attempting to break out when I woke up to a cat groaning like it was hurt outside, then yelling like a fight, then groaning again.

It was as close to a nightmare I've had in a while.  Sorry it's written so schizophrenically, it came back in bits and pieces and I remembered only as I typed it.

(officialy all of this is science fiction)
