Niagara Falls, Celebs, The Board & Frank
June 12th 2013I arrive in Niagara Falls on a train. I step off and realize the place has changed dramatically. It looks really dumpy and threatening. I am suddenly upon the edge of the cliffs and a wave of vertigo overtakes me. I fall to the ground and crawl away from the cliffs. I come to a cousin, CG and we walk for a while together. He points upward to the Skylon where a guy is walking a tightrope. "I got to get up there!" I say in amazement, my fear of heights gone. I leave CG and head toward Skylon. It is difficult, I've no shoes on and there is broken glass everywhere.
I make it through and see classmates who invite me to lunch. I can't. My mother is there and gives me money to join my friends. I can't. I have to go up the Skylon. I get on the elevator and ascend. At the top I run right into Dom and Billy again, feeling as if I know them well. They seem to know me and invite me onto the floor to play a dice game with them. I do. We play for a while until Sean Astin and Elijah Wood come in. I begin to question this situation but am startled out of that train of thought by Wood who introduces himself as Frank. Aha! The psycho. I get up and try to leave but find I am trapped in a small room with the four, the elevator is the only way out. I simply stand in the corner and keep my eye on Frank. He looks harmless enough but I know better.
Frank eventually moves across the room to a board on the wall. There are sketches and snippets of writing all over it. It looks like a deranged dream board of some sort. Frank looks at it for a long time and then turns to me, "You're stalking me," He states. I don't know what he's talking about so I go to the board and am shocked to see that it is my dreams jumbled all over it. There are also sketches and other items, articles, novel pages, maps, all strung together with threads in an odd zig zagging pattern. Reminds me of the boards one sees on cop shows, trying to piece a crime together.
I inform him that I am not stalking him but something he might have. If someone else had it I'd be stalking them. And all the sudden a thought dawns. Other people have had it. I'd considered getting it from others before but I settled on getting it from Frodo because he seemed the easiest way to get it. But my brain never lets me take the easy way, which is why it is perhaps so hard to recover it from Frodo. Frodo isn't challenge enough. My mind needs something more! I can't get it from Bilbo, he trusts me. I could try Gollem, Isildur? They would be more challenging than a whiny hobbit. Or... the greatest challenge of all would be to take it from Sauron himself! That's it! The ultimate challenge. My SC should love that! I am pacing back and forth and stating all of this out loud as Frank watches me. When I have come to my final conclusion Franks states, "Or you could try me. I'm not a whiney hobbit." I look at him and smile. "No. You're not."
I lunge for Frank. He dodges and runs, laughing. Instead of chasing I simply TK him back to within my reach. He whips out a knife and jabs at me. "A knife? How boring." I state quite truthfully. The knife disappears and the two of us wrestle around. He calls for help from his friends but they are now gone. It's just me and Frank fighting in the small room. I manage to pin him to the floor and growl, "Give it to me." "Take it from me," he grows back. I jab my fingers into his eyes and can feel my fingertips jab into his brain. It is cold and mushy like clumpy jello... and I suddenly know. "YOU DON'T HAVE WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR!" I yell into his face. "You're nothing but another distraction!" I pull my fingers from Frank's brain and run to a window. I look out, suspecting one of his friends sneaked away with whatever it is I'm looking for. I need to find them!
Frank suddenly shoves me out the window. I grab him by the hair as I tumble out and he comes with me. We fall, still fighting. I don't even care that I am about to die. I just want to hurt him as much as possible before I do. He seems to have the same desire.
I wake before we hit the ground. How boringly cliche. And I didn't even RC once in the last 2 dreams.
