dreamt by Vicki/Nylessa
Involved: Ranger Stormwing, Simon Drakestone (Sirius' son), and a nameless kid who was apparently Simon's younger brother, despite him having none.
Note from Vicki: This is all Cassandra's fault. That's all I have to say ;)
The dream started off with Ranger meeting with Simon in a cafeteria to discuss some kind of heist they'd planned, Simon pointed out a few problems which Ranger pulled up backup plans for in the event that they happened. Then Simon suggested that they should let his brother in on the deal, since the kid was something of an explosives expert, and apparently they needed to blow some obstacles up (!!!).
So they went out to the car park, and Simon showed off his motorbike a little. Ranger was properly admiring, then hauled out his own bike and they spent about five minutes of the dream comparing notes on the modifications they'd made. I know absolutely nothing about motorbikes myself so I have no idea where any of that came from or if it was just gibberish.
Eventually they rode off, picked Simon's brother up from university (?!?), and it turned out that the kid didn't like Ranger at ALL. He didn't really say so, but he spent the entire dream glaring at Ranger in sullen silence. But the kid-without-a-name got his explosive stuff ready somehow from somewhere, produced his own bike, and they drove off again. Then time sort of went fuzzy, because the next thing I saw this ruined city and the Three were walking (they'd lost their bikes) down a narrow alleyway, slipping behind a piece of corrugated iron, and into a just-as-narrow hallway. Ranger thought they were being followed, so when he passed by a hole in the wall he hid inside, and the others went on without him.
Someone passed by, he jumped out, and grabbed what turned out to be this 14-year-old brat of a girl, who immediately started screaming. Then Simon started yelling stuff like, "It's okay, he's with us, he's with us!" and Ranger turned around and found himself staring at a group of ragged guys holding Very Mean Guns. He let the girl go at that point and sort of backed up toward Simon and Nameless. Simon's still yelling, the ragged bunch are still suspicious, and that was when my mind did another massive jump and next thing I saw, Ranger was out in a courtyard with some different ducks with Very Mean Guns and was shot almost instantly.
He somehow avoided the bullet and took off running, into a crumbling house and up a flight of stairs, with the shooters in hot pursuit. He made it up to the top of the building, had nowhere else to go, so he jumped off the edge. Hit some kind of slanted sheet of metal and slid down that to the ground, and almost collided with Nameless Kid, who didn't want to answer Ranger's question of, "Where were you guys?!?!"
The two of them met up with Simon again, got back on their bikes (which had returned), and drove like crazy out of the city. On the way, Simon said something like, "We shouldn't have done it, we shouldn't have $%#&ing done it!" and Ranger replied with, "It wasn't our fault, it was gonna happen anyway!" And Nameless just sat looking sullen because he never said very much at all in the entire dream ;P
There was a little more after that, but it stopped being reasonably coherent and all I can really remember is flashes of fire, caves, Ranger on a skateboard which kept turning into roller blades, and me thinking at the time, Whoa, bad continuity there...
And I woke up not long after with a slight headache, which doesn't surprise me...
