Lucid dreams with a touch of fanservice

Weird dream again. Very weird.

The dream mixed together a lot of stuff, like NCIS, Heroes, The 4400 and Darker than Black.

The city we were in was a mix of lots of cities, I mean I recognized parts, or at lest it looked like some... but it wasn't. Felt a bit like the dream of the cities in Sandman.

It all started with Tony (DiNozzo) going undercover and joining a gang of young, rich kids. One day some strange wound appeared on his stomach, which turned out to be writing sliced into his flesh. Don't remember what it was, but I saw it...

Then, when one of the guys he was investigating got into his cabrio car, a boat fell on it all of a sudden. With an old man inside. Who grabbed this young guy and shook him and begged him not to freeze. In front of our eyes the boat and both men froze solid in about 5 seconds.

And then all hell broke loose. Some black dome appeared over this part of the city and we all got enveloped in black slime that looked like tar. Most people froze in place and died, some shattered, some just disappeared. I walked out of the slime without any problems and wandered about scared shitless.

I got out of the dome, but those who did get out like me were changed. We had powers now. I somehow ended up in a group with Peter Petrelli and Jordan Collier. And when people started hunting us, because they were scared of us and hated us, we had to flee.

There was only the dome they didn't hunt for us so we had to go back inside the black dome. But since the normal humans scheduled a hunt with lots of armed force to enter the dome (in protective clothing) next day, we had to do our best to find the cause and find a safe haven.

I didn't want to go back inside the dome because it was eerie and creepy and plain scary as hell. It was a deserted wasteland with ruins and frozen dead bodies and smelled strangely like tar. But we had no choice, so we went. And we went down to Level 5 to find something, anything.

The cells were either broken or empty or filled with tar. The one in the corner had light in it. I told the group there was someone who had to be alive and I had to save him. So I ran to the cell in the corner, looked in and Adam stared back at me, surprised and delighted. I breathed on the glass, trying to spell out "gonna get you out", but Peter broke the door. I was rather annoyed with him that I wasn't the hero.

So I ran in, grabbed him, dragged him out and told him I came to save him. Peter appeared like they have never met before, so I didn't tell him about Adam's past. Collier stared asking questions about safe secret passages and if the Company knew about this. Adam zoomed about the place, offering us papers that hinted that the answer was in the Cathedral, and then started walking out of the lower parts of the Company through some underground tunnel.

So we left through the tunnel and I grabbed Adam's hand, telling him that I knew him and if he let go of my hand and ran off I'd cut his head off. He seemed to be amused by this and took it in stride, the annoying git.

We emerged from a cellar in an alley and into a busy marketplace, way outside the black dome. We waded through the booths, buying some roasted chestnuts and fruit to eat and spotted the green dome of the Cathedral towering over the city in the distance. I was surprised that the people haven't spotted us as not normal humans, but I didn't dare mention this fact. We left in a hurry towards the Cathedral...

...and then someone's frikkin lawnmower woke me up.
