Canale

I was stuck in all kinds of traffic throughout the city and ran into Laura bonnoit and Laura that used to disciple me. I cried when I saw them...and they both were like "we love you, still friends, come see us!"  I haven't spoken to the 2nd Laura in like 2 years. Then there was an accident in front of me where this really geeky guy has his band instruments fall out of his truck or something. His friend is like "go to hell!" Bc i showed no inclinaction of helping. But he ended up falling on my car so i had to push him a bit to help. We got to wherever they were going bc they had some kind of "bumper warranty"  and could bring their scraps of whatever (wood things and instruments and random other things) to a warehouse and they could be fixed or sold. So we finally get it all situated and someone hits something as they're calling the guy to come get the stuff and it all falls and basically shatters. I was upset then just like oh well! And someone with us, a girl with long legs, was like well lets go for a walk in that forest thing since we didn't get to the other day! The guys didnt want to bc of the gravel pathway and said it would hurt their feet or something. Well I said we could do it so I tried to jump into the trail but my legs were shorter than everyone else's. And I got caught in some branches and looked down the path which became very mystifying and freaked out. (I kid you not) God reached down, pulled me out of the thicket I was caught in and said "its okay, you will soon be free. Canale." (Apparently God is Italian.) I went home and found out my sister was a dog in disguise bc she was the head of my guard and that the other pplvwherr protecting me too but no one was listening to her and she was frustrated. ....when i woke up I googled the definition of canale and it means a canal, a duct, a passage way for a bullet. Basically a way for something to travel out of.

Captive

He was a large man. Not fat just tall and broad. He was stronger than 5 men put together and his shoulders were the width of a twin bed. His muscles bulged and rippled down his arms. He had a fierce expression of a warrior willing to do anything and everything to win his fight.

His fight was me.

He took me from a party. It was evening and the sun had just set. I was near the fence watching horses jump, play, and graze.

Immediately I was drawn to him. His size intrigued me and his crystal blue eyes captivated me. I thought he was the one I'd love forever. 
 
When he took me, he did not want to let me leave. He told me everyone was done for. He would kill them all if necessary.

Friends tried to save me. One he skinned alive and showed me their insides. Others came that I knew he'd crush. I'd beg him to leave them alone. I yelled that they run for their lives. He wanted me and only me. I feared I'd never see my parents again or if I did he would destroy them.

A group of 3 friends, 2 guys and 1 girl, came for me. They were the most successful pulling me away from him to at least run the maze that was the basement - like area he lived in.  They'd hide me and he wouldn't kill them because he needed to find me.

He always found me. Honestly I'm not the greatest hider. I'd hear him coming and start to weep. He'd grab me and punish me by beating me.

Once my friends got me all the way to the 5 level of the playhouse. Red carpeted stairs and I was nearly naked. I had taken off anything with severe amounts of blood from those he had already killed.

They had tricked him and tied him up somehow. I knew it wouldn't bet long before he got out. His voice carried through the entire playhouse. Yelling for me. Wanting me.

My heart would beat into my ears drowning out his booming voice.

I knew he was close and panicked. My friend saw it and I took off my shirt and dove behind a plant in the hallway. I blended into the paint on the wall well enough and my black shorts matched the shadows I sat in.

He came up and asked my friend where I was. Where he was hiding me.

He demanded me. My friend stood confident. But then he saw my knee and it looked out of place.

He bent down and saw me. Taunted me a bit, then he drew me out.

Somehow I'd put my sweater back on and he pulled out a tazer. I knew on my bare skin I'd burn. He hit my jacket and I pretended to feel the horrible electricity course through me.

Her did it three times before he told me to get up.

The next thing happened so fast I don't know what order it took place.

We were back in his lair and a friend had hidden in the refrigerator. They ambushed him and blindfolded him while tying his hands and feet with shackles.

Suddenly I was with my parents. Bloodied and bruised.

I heard his roars and then nothing. Suddenly he stood in front of me bounded by chains with the word "arrested" written with,what looked like ash on his forehead.

I touch his chest tenderly. Something inside me didn't want them to hurt him.  I still cared for his well being. His eyes were still full of rage but he was still the most beautiful man I had ever seen. And I was saddened my adventure with him would end.

Back home in my bed it was Halloween. Where I lived in some Icelandic village on the side of a mountain everyone wore masks. There was one mask, black and white, that I kept noticing. No eyes. A slim figure beneath it.

People kept telling me I was safe. I kept reassuring them I knew that but felt like I was being watched. Finally I gave up and retired to my room. I kept telling myself to breathe through the anxiety. He wasn't coming back. I'd seen him be taken by the police on a horse the size of a bus.

I cried. I didnt know what else I could do.

Around 3 am, I heard something in the kitchen. I got up and our front door was open. I panicked and quickly shut it. I saw blood on the ground, dark and fresh.

I fearfully followed it wondering if my stalker was here for me.

It was my brother. He sat on the ground too drunk to know where the moon was.

He was bleeding badly and I saw the broken wine bottle next to him. He must have dropped it and still tried to pour from it.

His leg was badly cut and I was afraid he had cut an artery. The masked person showed for a moment and told me he needed to go to the hospital and not to wait.

Even though I was terrified I was right and someone had been watching me, I grabbed pants and my brother and started on my way to the hospital.

I woke up.

Alaska with Mercy

I was in Alaska and knew that Nancy was in florida. I wouldn't be able to say hello.

I was with my parents and brother and we were on a trip mostly like any other. We drove from fairbanks to anchorage.

Once we were in Anchorage wet had to cross under a bridge because if we rode the bus over, we would have to pay more, which was silly.

We got free t-shirts which made my mom happy and warmer. There was some ice and snow around but mostly green. It must have been spring.

We saw a crowd and someone pointing so we went towards it. My brother said "anyone see a BEAR?!" I said no at first and he said "well your bear spotting skills are not very good right now..." and then I saw a large black or brown bear on the side of the hill. There were 2 and one started racing a wolf down to the water. Everyone watched. When they got to the water, the bear aimed for a fish and got it but the wolf didn't let him keep it.

They started fighting and the bear "screamed"... I thought I'd forgotten my camera at the hotel room but I felt it in my pocket and grabbed some awesome shots of the bear and wolf fighting.

Eventually the bear and wolf ran off.

When we went to get back in the car my mom told me she would be bringing Mercy (my little girl) by later so that she could have a break.

I was so excited bc I hadn't seen her since I had her, but I was going to have to figure out working and bringing her to her post-birth doctor's appointment.

When we were back at the room, my mom brought Mercy. She didn't give her to me right away and instead kept talking. I got irritated and asked her to give me my baby. I wanted to hold her.

She gave her to me and I went to go out of the room maybe to the bathroom. There were towels hanging on the door and what looked like giants roaches with bumpy backs were stuck to it. I freaked out and when my mom tried to shake them off, they turned into the Pokémon called sandshrew. It rolled into a ball and started coming at us. I had to run with Mercy and kick the Pokémon. It disappeared and we ran outside.

My mom and I were yelling trying to figure out how to get mercy to her appt without me having to take off work.

Then it dawned on me that I worked 2 full time jobs and I had no idea how to get out of them to take care of mercy. I knew one boss would be understanding but I had to figure out if I could quit. It didn't seem like I was making and extra working there somehow.

Then I remembered a 3rd full time job I was working. I knew something had to give.

At my car I decided I wasn't going to work so I could bring mercy to the doctor and my mom was saying I needed to just get in the car. But I kept thinking I don't have a car seat. When I got to my car I had a car seat.

Then I woke up.

I was in Alaska and knew that Nancy was in florida. I wouldn't be able to say hello.

I was with my parents and brother and we were on a trip mostly like any other. We drove from fairbanks to anchorage.

Alaskan adventuring

I was back in Alaska staying with some friend and my dad and one of my friends from home came too (let's call her mary since I can't remember who it was.).

We flew into fairbanks knowing we'd only have one day available to us to explore. We drove to another nearby city I hadn't heard of before to stay with my friends there. Really we just used their home bc they were out of town.

They had a boat hanging up and we (mary and i) stayed on the bottom level which like a sunken room.

For part of the day I had to work. I babysat or worked at some daycare for a bit. We played a game of basketball with the kids but they weren't getting it so it was more like lets run around with the ball and try to annoy the teachers.

Eventually we all went back to the house/cabin and it was close to bed time. So we were watching a movie. Then my long time friend Justin came in and cuddled up next to me to watch the movie.

I felt nothing as he did so, though. I thought how strange it was that years ago I tried to tell him we should date but could never find the words. And here he was laying with me on a couch watching a movie, falling asleep, and I felt nothing. It worried me because what if suddenly he felt something? What if he had feelings (which it definitely seemed like) for me that I didn't return?

The next day we were kind of getting ready to leave. My dad was panicking about how far the airport was and I was sad mary wouldn't get to see more of alaska.

Before anything else happened my dad ran outside and said "it can't be!" And we ran outside and the neighbors were there too.

The northern lights were out.  I had waited all my life for this and here they were!

Red and green dancing but looking almost like clouds being blown away too quickly.

It was also strange because it was some part of summer where the sun never fully disappeared. It was a dusky look outside and i wished it were black as midnight so the colors could dance. We watched them regardless and the neighbors wondered if Justin and I were together.  I said no and that was when he had to go run an errand. I asked the same neighbor where we could hike up so mary could see around us and get a taste of Alaska. She pointed to a nearby road that drove up the mountain and mentioned a trail.

Just before justin left there was a huge storm that blew through. It was part of the lights. I kept thinking "I knew it was a type of storm but this..."

It was almost like a tornado ran through. Huge pieces of siding came off houses with nails and a building even collapsed across the street from us. Justin and I froze in place even as I screamed we should go into the basement - like room I wash staying in.

When it ended I asked Justin not to go out in it for whatever he had to do. He kept saying he had to go.

I turned to mary and told her how sorry I was but it was way too dangerous to hike up the mountain in this weather. She seemed disappointed but also okay about it, probably more okay than I was.

We went back into the room where my friend who owned the place and another old friend were hanging out in the other day bed talking.

One was justins Mom and she told me that justin was in love with me. That he always has been and she's told him over and over to do something about it. She asked about my feelings for him and I told her I'd had them years ago but no longer do. I felt nothing but brotherly love towards him.

She was disappointed but understood.

She went to go upstairs for something and the father of the owner of the cabin we were in came down the hall with a hooded sweater on and she about died. I tried to let her know he was behind her, but instead she jumped half way to the roof. It was hilarious.

My dad told us we'd bet leaving soon so I walked to the deck and basically told mary I'd be back soon. My dad was panicking but i had an errand to run.

So I went into town to a little waterfront store (there was this huge crystal blue lake behind the shop).

When I walked in a girl with red curly hair greeted me and asked if I was okay. Prior to walking in I had concocted a story in my head that had made me cry. I told her I truly was that I had just made up a sad story in my head. She thought it was strange but said I had great hair.

I looked around the store and realized most of them had red curly hair. I commented on it and the girl helping me seemed like she had never noticed.

A very tall guy showed up then and as it turns out I knew his long lost sisters and that they were working at this store. Then he cried and I cried with him some.

Then I went and looked at the lake. There weren't swimmers bc the water was icy. But you could see mountains in the background and a small bush plane fly over it. I wished I had brought mary. 

When I left I was running home bc I was late.and it was getting dark.

I was crossing the street when a shriveled old woman was trying to army crawl across the street. She was the size of a 8 month old baby and had as much function in her body. I asked if I could help her up the hill and she said yes. As soon as I picked her up she started shouting at me to put her down.

I put her down where she was trying to go and went on my way.

I finally got home and we went to get in the van.

Mary was in the backseat and I was doing something up front. My dad was going to the bathroom or something and then the car started going. Not just rolling but in a driving gear racing down the very steep and curvy roads.

Mary and I started to panic and I tried to steer as best I could from the passenger seat but when I tried to shift into a lower gear or park the car surge forward and we went faster.

We finally flew off a hill and got stuck on a store front that had some of their beams hanging out a little. The back of out shirts caught and the van crashed elswhere.

I went to try and get down and as I freed myself I woke up.

I was the Project Girl Picked On

I had a dream that I was one of the girls that was targeted as a joke to be dressed up and made over. Like I was set up with a cute guy. Who took me on the weirdest date...I helped him cut grass and ran errands with his girl roommate. Then while I was changing he walked in on me going to the bathroom like it was nothing and when I made him leave bc I was half naked bc I was chan gu in he went and told this huge room of ppl that I was like checking my underwear or something... when I came out then ambushed me and started telling me how pathetic I was to think he would like me. But he was one of those guys that in high school put on the hard ass front but really was nice...and he was nice except for we were in high school I guess. And they stripped me down. And tried to put new clothes on me i hated. I was about to cry and then just stood up in my towel and said "yall wanna see me naked? Here!" And opened the towel in front of these girls and bared it all (I had panties on..). They kind of gawked and I worried someone would take a picture so I closed the towel and they busted out laughing and I ran off. Somehow this coinincided with some assembly and I ended up running around just sad that ppl would do this. People I thought were my friends. And I couldn't find chantal....and when I did she just kept saying one second and when she finally came she was in too good a mood to be sad with me or angry at them. She could say sorry but she was just focused on leaving instead of helping me. She was with friends. And my parents didn't care as much as they should have either. One random person whose name I don't remember and I don't remember how I know them cared the most. She kept asking a if I was okay and if I needed anything. I realized before I left I had to go back and get my clothes. As I went to cross the hall back to his bedroom and find them bc I wasn't gonna let him keep them, my cat jumped on my dresser and knocked stuff over and woke me up. I think I had just gotten there bc I remember him looking sad and guilty. Like he was about to say sorry. I think he tried to talk to me as I got my stuff.

Halloween and Dating the Grim Reaper

I don't remember everything leading up to the important parts...

I was at some sort of camp. We were going to have a pool party for Halloween soon.

I was out hiking, I guess, in the woods when I stumbled upon this tent made from tarp. It was up in some rocks so I climbed up to see it. My little cousin was following even though I told her not to.

When I looked inside the tent, I saw a lot of death. There were bones and dried blood everywhere. I told her to run away and as we started to I saw him in the forest.

The only way to try and describe him was the grim reaper with skin. You could sense his evilness. He turned to me and I tried to run but I couldnt.

He told me I would be his. I was his. He told me everyone would die if I didn't listen to him. I told him I wouldn't do what he wanted and I ran off.

I kept this secret from my family and friends. But as halloween drew closer I found myself thinking about the strange death man more and more.

The day before when we were setting up for the party, I felt a chill go through me. I freaked out a little but decided it was nothing. Then I stepped into the backyard where we had a beautiful garden and abundance of beautiful plants.

As soon as my foot touched the ground, everything began to die. The grass turned dry and brown, the roses wilted to black and crusted. Every single thing turned brown and gray. It was all dead.

I started crying at the death I'd created. Then I knew he had been right. I had become a King Midas of sorts, but everything I touched died instead of turning to gold.

I decided to run back to his makeshift home in the woods. I would tell him I'd stay with him as long as my family and friends were not hurt.

When I got there, he was about to vanish. I tried to stop him but I was too late. I knew he'd be back at the party so I ran back.

When I got there everyone seemed fine, except me because I was shouting trying to figure out where he was. I tried to describe him without terrifying everyone.

Then someone screamed and I turned to see him standing in the gateway.

My heart jumped and I ran to him. I pleaded with him to just talk to me, that he could have me but we had to talk and I had to understand.

No one wanted to let me go alone with this strange man that created fear with every step, but after much convincing, they let me leave.

We walked just down the block. He put his arm around me like a protective boyfriend. He told me how much he loved me and that he would never give up on me. That he believed I could one day love him.

I was speechless and terrifed. He explained his life some more and somehow I grew to have pity for him. Then I began to think I might actually love him back, but I was ashamed of my love for him. No one would approve and no one would understand. I didnt even understand and with that I became more fearful.

I conceded there might be a chance I'd love him one day, not letting on to my feelings, but he couldn't have my friends and family.

I don't remember the agreement we came to, but I think he left us alone and I hugged my friends and family without fear I would take their lives by touching them.
