| | I had another cool dream last night. So I think I'll write it out before I forget it. Yeah, I'll do a regular journal entry in a minute...
I almost forget how it started out. I think I was at a swimsuit shop on a dock somewhere. There was a young boy and girl laughing and carrying on together; you could tell they had crushes on each other. I was giddy because I had just discovered I could teleport myself. Yep, this was a Heroes dream. But I couldn't bend time like Hiro, I could only teleport very short distances, where I could see where I'd end up. I saw my face looking back at me from wherever I wanted to go, and then my body followed. People tended to mistake it for cloning myself, I think because there would be two of us for a split second. But it was fun. Anyway, this police guy arrived on the scene and began demanding everyone there come with him for questioning. He was saying something about having a reason to believe one of us was a suspect in something... He started dragging the younger boy away, causing a scene with his girlfriend/crush. Well I knew I had done nothing wrong, so immediately I knew something was up. I casually started strolling the other way. But soon enough another cop started chasing me, so I had to run. I tried to teleport, but it wouldn't work for some reason. What I didn't know was that the Haitian was in the area; he and Benett had this small unit of cops working for them for now trying to find another Hero. And the Haitian was blocking all powers in the area.
Somehow I managed to elude the cop and get back to our apartment building. It was a shabby little place with a Mexican restaurant and bar on the first floor, and the elevator to the apartments was through the kitchen. So I was able to slip through the crowd for now. Back on our floor I discovered a buffet dinner one of our Mexican neighbors had set up as a floor-wide bonding thing. I thought it would be a great place to hide in plain sight, but no one seemed to be coming, so I just went back to our tiny little apartment. Before I had taken two steps a group of people came up the elevator. No, they weren't the cops, just some of the people who lived there. But with them was a grizzled Latino man whom the lady setting up the buffet recognized immediately. He used to live in the building, but caused so many problems he had been kicked out. Everyone in the room stiffened as she said, "You know you're not welcome here." Obviously this guy had come looking for a fight, because he pulled out one of his guns in response and started shooting a random person. That person being me.
As quick as I could I teleported behind him, then slammed his face into the wall a couple times. Everybody was impressed, but I was just worried. The Haitian would have sensed that. And the cops were still in the area! I had to get out of there. ((I think I was giving the Haitian more powers than he actually had, haha.)) I went back to the apartment to tell Mom I'd be gone all night, and started packing some clothes. I wound around the building, down a staircase to the basement, up another rarely-used staircase, across an entire floor, just to make sure no one could follow me. The cops would be watching the back door, so of course I didn't use that one. When I finally got outside I could see a few cops in every direction. But there were plenty of people out, so I reassured myself I could blend in. I began walking out of town, following a stream of people traveling alongside, but not on, the main road. I didn't want anyone seeing me if they happened to be going down it.
But of course, he was. The Haitian. I saw him walking over the rise, and could do nothing as he silently pointed down the hill at me. I tried to run, but it was no use. I was shot twice, and immediately fell unconscious to the blare of some strange horns... Of course, since this was my dream, I was still technically awake. Awake enough to witness plot happening anyway. Apparently this weird group of science nerds came to my rescue. They demanded I be let free, or they'd set off some weird experiment they had planted in New York somewhere. Well the cops had to agree to that one. So they left and the scientists started tending to my wounds. They drove me to the next town over and left me there to fend for myself.
Then it starts getting blurry. I was being put on trial by the mayor for....I don't know. I think he just didn't like me. It might have been because he also had a power, but unlike me he could actually make clones of himself. I guess he thought I was infringing on his territory or something. But he used his power recklessly and for show, and I knew the Haitian would find him eventually. Quicker than he'd find me, at this rate.
That's where the dream ended. Too bad it wasn't more focused on the cool power aspect. But it was still neat. |
