Startling Dream

I'm not scared of my dream but it has made me contemplate why I dreamed in the first place. It was a weird Lucid dream that whenever something happened it would stutted back and I might beable to change some things, but everything else was set in place. It's a dream I've had before but also one that I've never had before.

I first had the dream when I was just a little middle schooler and I've had it only a few times after that. I don't have dreams that I remember very often.

It was set at my grandparents house. It's a one story house with two big livingrooms, a kitchen, a laundry room, a back room that at the time had a hot tub, a big penut shapped pool, and three bedrooms one of which my grandparents use as a study. They also have a lot of land and a big barn perched at the top of a hill behind the house.

In the dream I go back behind the barn and cross a little stream surrounded by trees. On the other side of the tree line I found a big stone building that looked really run down. None of the windows had glass so I just climbed through one into a small room that had another window so I climbed through that one as well. I came out to what looked like an overgrown garden. It was gourgeous and little lights that in my dream I called fairies. They flew all around me and filled me with so much excitement and energy. I bolted back to my grandparents house and tild them what I saw only for them to say that I have a nice imagination.

Then I woke up.

I didn't think much of the dream, but I do know it is one of the reasons that I believe in magic.

This time I only got a fast play through of my old dream and came to a new time. I was older like I am now. Just a young adult. I had gone back to the garden but there was no more magic. In this dream I saw people that I know but I couldn't make out who they were. In this dream there was a disease it came and turned people I love into zombie like creatures. All you had to do was touch them to get infected. I killed many of my friends and family. I had dug a hole and was chopping their bodies into peices to burn in that hole. There were some who didn't fully turn so I kept them locked up and I didn't tell the police. I thought no one would believe me and they would take me for a mad woman. I tried to burn the bodies but they just wouldn't light on fire and then the police came. I gathered the infected who were still alive and the chopped up bodies and ended up in a helicopter. I showed the living infected where they might be safe. I flew over behind the barn and over the big stone building and came accross a forest with rivers on either side. I thought we would be safe. Then other infected came out of the trees and started chasing the ones who weren't fully transitioned. I was confused and scared so I woke up.

I had woken up several times throughout the dream and everytime I returned to sleep it would start off right where I left it. I don't like that version of my dream and I hope to never have it again. I want the magic back.

I always thought that some dreams mean something, but I don't want this dream even if it does mean something. I wasn't scared of my dream when I woke up. I was just very confused as to why I had to remember this dream.
