What happens when i don't sleep well...



It first involved having to stay with another family for a while. They had 6-7 kids around 8-12 years old. So it was hell trying to get my things setup and use the internet. But somehow, the place slowly turned into my house...

Then i heard on the news that there had been a huge train accident near here. Thru the whole dream i followed that event, which made me see a bunch of trains going thru the city at high speed and either colliding and exploding, or just ramming stuff at high speed and breaking it.

The first accident was the exit of a bridge. The bridge had two tracks that merged into one to cross it, and a train that just crossed the bridge smashed into two others that were waiting to cross, on each side of the Y. So three trains smashing into eachother.

Apparently about a dozen trains were going insane around the city. They would get stuck at full speed, and just roll until they smashed into something hard enough to break them.

I tried to show that to my parents from clips from various news sites, but they wouldn't believe me. So i decided to go out and take pictures myself.

Just as i was getting out of the house, i saw a large explosion far away, and a bunch of wagons getting thrown in the air, then raining down on the city. I quickly took off (yeah, spontaneous dragonform...) and flew next to where things had exploded. Apparently, there was now a mountain with a track on the side of it nearby, and another train that lost control was on it.

I quickly went after it and followed it. At some point, it just fell off the track and started rolling in the middle of a street. Surprisingly, it didn't hit anything except at some point it hit a garbage truck. But it went straight thru it, leaving a huge hole in the middle of it. The driver of the truck got out unharmed and just stood there confused.

The train then led me to the train yard. It finished by crashing at high speed into a bunch of other trains, which resulted in a huge explosion, taking out a dozen trains. Nobody got hurt there, and i just stood there with a huge grin while taking pictures.

Once the flames died down, i went to check, and apparently, the train yard was run by some goth-looking people. They had a bunch of kids with missing limbs or other body parts that they were using as slave to do work on the trains. They were whipping them and doing all kind of evil stuff.

But they all ran away when i came there, so not much happened with that. The kids just stood there confused, then started leaving after a while. I have no idea what happened. Then at some point, the owner of the train yard came out after me. He was some kind of really old guy with a shotgun, lots of teeth missing and covered in blood and oil stains. Apparently he was in charge of the whole thing with the goths.

At first, for some reason, he thought i was the scarier replacement for the goth people. He started showing off some 1960-ish radios and TVs and stuff that he supposedly made the kids build. He went on about how it was the only real thing americans should use, and started ranting about made in japan stuff. But what he showed me was only empty wooden case for hardware, no components were inside. He also started trying to teach me how to collect some kids, chop off a few limbs and then register them as disabled and make them work for free while collecting money from the governement. That got me mad at him, so i did... I don't know what, but it turned him into some kind of zombie that looked inflated and entirely made of really sick-looking skin. Then for some reason, the place caught on fire and i just walked out while it blew up in the back.

When i left, the trainyard was completely deserted, even the train wrecks were gone...

I started then walking back toward my house, but decided to go thru a wood and take a shortcut to get there faster.

Halfway thru the wooded area, i ended up finding what looked like an old, abandonned hangar. It was covered with metal panels, and mostly rusted. But it was still standing up, and had a solid concrete floor. Some old guy apparently lived in it, and told me he'd sell it to me for 1500$. I had the money, so i bought it.

I decided that now i was going to live there instead of going home. BUt the metal was really all broken and there were holes in it, so i started patching it up. I noticed that i'd practically have to tear the whole thing down and rebuild it.

From that point, i was a dragon again, and just started picking up walls sections and removing them to work on the frame under them. The wood that was below the metal panels was in really bad condition, so i decided to replace them. But to do that i'd need money. So i decided to start a business, and wanted an associate.

At some point, some guy walked by and just said that he wanted to associate. So yeah, sure, that works. We started working on rebuilding the place. That went really well. I was holding up all the wood and stuff in place with my arms/wings/legs while he nailed things. After about half an hour we were done.

The next step was for me to go back home and get computer hardware. I continued down the path i was following earlier in the wood, which led me to a bridge.

During the whole dream, there had been a background story about the city investing a few millions to build a highway around the city on bridges, to avoid taking land away from the people. But the trains had wrecked parts of it, some weren't done, and stuff like that. So all thru the dream, there were half-built bridges everywhere and rusted/broken ones.

The bridges i had to take to get home were all mostly broken. But i decided to try to cross them anyway.

This led to a lot of jumping between/over/on top of twisted metal bars, falling sections and lots of fun stuff like that. It was almost like a platform game, except very realistic and fun. I kinda had to go fast or it would collapse, but i also had to be carefull with how much weight i put where, and the vibrations. But i saw that mostly as a game. Halfway across it i found a group of people that were stuck there, so i just picked them up in my jaws and finished crossing the bridge with them. It was kinda funny because they were enjoying the ride and cheering as i managed jumps and stuff.

On the other side, my parents somehow were waiting for me. They congratulated me for helping people, then started telling me how the train thing was completely fake, and just an excuse to delay the repairs on the bridges.

I started arguing with them about that, and telling them what happened on the other island, and how it was all real and how i even saw the train blow up myself. They still wouldn't believe me, so i just jumped in time with them to right after the train went thru the garbage truck and let the whole thing replay, showing them what was happening and sometime pausing time.

It was really weird, because as i showed the replay, i could see all kinds of things exploding around the city i had missed. Which looked incredibly cool. At some point, i even had a train explode and launch a wagon in the air, which hit a plane, which then exploded, causing one of the jet engine to keep going foward and land right on a gas station, which blew up and caused a chain of explosions in that area.

But for some reason, even there, nobody was getting hurt. Everyone was just looking around and going "this is unbelievable, can you imagine how much this will cost to fix" or "how likely is that to happen" or they were trying to wake up. But i was just going "Woah!".

I finally managed to convince my parents that it was true, and then it's pretty much all i can remember. I know i went home and did some stuff, and that at some point later i curled up in the hangar around computers.

And the instant replay wasn't accurate compared to the first time when i was there. Some stuff that got blown up in the replay was fine when i saw it the first "real" time.

Anyway, complexicated fun dream.

Interesting. Nothing else to say. It's very interesting.

You remember your dreams much better than I do.
