Dreaming; Night of
December 26, 1983
       8:32              2I was on a wooden large boat when I heard a rumor that James Herriot had just been killed. Things occurred, and I met the guy responsible. He attacked me, and a long battle ensued in a corridor with two pretty onlookers on my side. He finally pulled a switchblade on me and jabbed it into my left thigh. I threw him off, fought some more, and gained possession of the knife. I was using it to hold him off, when a man of authority came and "saw" me "threatening" him. My two friendly onlookers had disappeared and I was in trouble. After a brief while in captivity, I escaped and ran a long way away. (H)
     3May be continuation of 2. I was with a bunch of people from school when we discovered an extraterrestrial. It was a plant the size of a four story building that could think. A small party of us, myself not included, approached it; and, as the rest of us watched, a compartment opened up and they went inside. We could see them part of the time through a window-like structure. They came out wrapped in cast-like materials. The plant wanted to be able to move about without hurting them, once he realized what pain was by breaking one of the groups little fingers and observing. It released the group, as I said, and sent out a mandate that all people come to it in a similar manner. Soon everyone was on his/her way or had been there. I think that the plant was doing something psychological to them. I refused to go and hid out between two huge machines. People kept walking by, and I would signal with a "shh" sign and sometimes give a few words of explanation. Soon, however, someone started shouting and gave away my location. I started to run, and a girl (perhaps J) that I'd met was helping me. She got the idea, of which I knew nothing until they were upon me, of stampeding scores of elephants right over me; upon which I could (and did) grab hold of a couple of baby elephants and ride with the herd. Her reasoning was that thousands of tons of elephant flesh would make a pretty good cover. We ran and ran, and were finally dropped off at the fringe of this jungle. Thinking I was safe, we soon discovered otherwise when the foliage on all sides began to burn. She said something about the actions of a jealous maiden. I told her that she would have to make a final commitment now, and asked her if she would stick with me. She did, and we were about to implement a final plan, amidst the inferno surrounding us, when I awoke. (G)
