one. one thing led to another and i was supposed to be performing a test for somesort of herbology class. i was the new girl in class, thus was objected to some cruel teasing by fellow classmates, which was (i hoped) quite harmless in the beginning, but unfortunetly disabled me from performing the test. so when i had finally unlocked the fence door that they had locked me in, many of the people already had found the large dried leaf that one needed to pick up the squirming, tongue-like organism, each one of them earning the person a point toward the test.
i had no idea how to find such a leaf, and not many of them were willing to show me where. then i saw several pulling a conical-shaped fruit-like object from a huge jungle of dangerous-looking tropical plants that were populating in great masses here and there around the enclosed dome-like space we were in. one would then cut the two thick cords that links the fruit to the main tree, thus killing the living organism that lives within the conical-shaped object. i would soon figure out that it is this layer of leaves that creates the conic shape that was used to perform the test.
though by the time i had realized all this, most of the people had already gotten six, seven or even eight points whereas i had none. and due to my tardiness, many of the conical-shaped fruit had already been found and used, and i could find no more of them. i was running around, and panicking.
then i decided that i would ask the teacher, who was a handsome middle-aged man with streaks of gray hair, for some help, being the new student in class and pretending i had no idea what was going on. apparently, the teacher knew me and as i approached him to ask, gave me a strange, studying look. he told me i was excused from the test, but that i should try and find this conical-shaped fruit anyway. we were by this time standing by a wall opposite from the main field of topical plants, and only a few steps from the teacher and me there was a small but deep pool of water.
the teacher pulled something like glittering string from the neck of my long, sweeping coat, asking me what it was. i did not give him an answer because somehow it was a secret that i did not want people to know about. instead, i pulled up the neck of my coat tighter around me, and turned around to walk away.
right that moment, a mermaid-like creature jumped up from the lake and attacked me. we wrestled on the ground. i roughly pushed its head and arms from grabbing my shoulders, and with one leg on its back and one pushing in to its stomach, i twisted my legs so that the creature gave a spin, and with a flip the creature went splashing into the lake again.
i got up, to find the teacher and another man, younger, staring at me. as i quickly walked away, i heard the younger man whispering loudly to the teacher, "she ought to get points for that flip".
then suddenly i was elsewhere, with Kate Todd as my supervisor. i was in somesort of a medical facility, in a room where there were a large bunch of those conical fruit that i was supposed to attain at least one of. with encouragement from Kate, i approached one small fruit and started pulling at it. then i was suddenly in between two medical students in lab coats, each from the two countries that i happened to speak the languages of. so pretending (somehow i was not supposed to let them know i was taking the fruit for a test) i was also a student there, i casually talked to the two students, telling them i needed one for a class of mathematics. one of the students became suspicious, asking my why he had never seen me around before, to which i replied i was new. the other simply kept asking me if i wanted to go to church with him.
then somehow, intead of getting the fruit, my objects were to retrieve any medical file to be used for an experiment or a test (that was also apparently going to help me pass my fruit test). i finally was able to retrive two or three files, and walked out of the room into a hallway, with Kate trailing behind. one female student suddenly approached me and asked me who i was and why i need the medical files, and i replied with a string of lies.
she then told me, "what if what you're telling me is not true?"
i answered, "well then... i'll just give these files back to you."
once Kate and i were outside, we were met with an alarming scene: there was a airplane in the middle of the field and surrounded by a great amount of people... which turned out to be all of the people that Kate and i had lied and stolen properties and informations from during missions. confused, we walked toward the plane, with people around us demanding us back the objects we took from them. once inside the plane, we noticed many other people boarded with us. we sat down side by side near the window, Kate on the windowseat, me towards the aisle. we were sure we were being punished, having somehow failed our mission. then through my labtop, we watched a video showing the very scene we were caught in, when the video suddenly showed the plane and people on the field blazing up with fire. then the screen was filled with Xs, as my labtop lost internet connection. then we were reprimended for using the labtop by an authoritative man. then i squirmed in my seat, uncomfortable.
then i woke up.
then i fell back to sleep again.
