Crouching Tehuti, Hidden Dragon


Just vague snippets. In some part I was someone else--probably male, with a very patient and understanding personality, maybe like my demon character Tal Natha--and I was standing with somebody upon a balcony or on a flight of stairs overlooking an area way below, like the stairs went around and around at right angles with an open space down the middle...all white and gray and such. Maybe in a store. Way far below I believe was my niece Rayne and whoever this was with me--Ma?--and I were looking down on her and smiling proudly for some reason.

Shift. This is vague too. I was at home and I think it was late afternoon, maybe summer, maybe rainy out; Ma wanted me to do something involving family, like have my picture taken with Rayne (I'm pretty sure my brother Eric and his family were up here, maybe visiting), or go to a family gathering or something. I refused since I don't like family things. Ma got abnormally upset and ran from the house crying. I felt she was going to go out to her car and smoke a cigarette. I felt bad for upsetting her though I still did not want to go. I got up to go outside after her and try to calm her down. Like I said it was late evening, overcast but summery so there were leaves on the trees and it was getting dark and blue outside. Nice and peaceful.

I set foot out near Dad's vehicle and started walking toward the mailbox for some reason, intent on finding Ma. But then it's like I was in the middle of some sort of kung fu or martial arts movie with lots of swordfighting action and jumping and flying and such like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon or Hero or something (none of which I've ever seen). It's kind of like I was directing the action without being lucid (roleplaying). I whirled around and I knew that there would be these people there and Ma was in trouble and I'd have to help her. And sure enough, back near Dad's vehicle stood an Asian woman who came running at me and flying through the air. I remember even that she and a few others who appeared at various points wore the same color-themed clothing as in the movie ads--all green, all offwhite/cream, etc.--and I thought about how much I liked that. But then I had to try to fight off this Asian lady who was attacking me and so I got ready to defend myself and defeat these flying jumping martial arts people. That was when Dad woke me because I forgot to set my alarm clock.

No clue where this dream came from. Maybe I watch too many of those movie ads. >_<
