I worked for World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) and I got to tour with the boys.

I saw Michelle McCool talk on Zoom to family and friends on her laptop. When she picked it up, I saw sticky markings of tape on the bottom of the laptop. I also saw her daughter.

One night, a group of men picked on one of the performers and a fight broke out. Gang versus wrestlers: I could do nothing but watch. At the end, everyone was bruised, but I had to get them on the tour bus and on our way to the next gig. I helped Jeff Hardy sit up as he was lying on a table. There were puncture wounds on his back and another larger one was bleeding heavily. I put pressure on it to stop the bleeding.

On the ground floor of a small mall, some stickers covered the window of a facility. I read a sign at the door saying they'd be starting a WWE training facility here. On the wall, I saw a trophy case with a championship belt and John Cena's chains. I got excited and ran to tell Cookie, while turning back to point at the display. This young man took the chains and ran. I went after him because he was stealing. I ran past Batista and Cena doing a TV interview and I yelled, "they've got Cena's chains!"

I lost his trail a second to find another guy run past me with the belt. I followed him to the parking lot, where he jumped into the same truck as the chain thief.

It was sunset when I followed them to their house. I banged on the door; they opened it. I attacked them, yelling, "you thieves!"

They tried to stop me, yelling "whoa, whoa, whoa! I work for them!" I stopped when a man in a suit rushed in and said that was the truth.

In a dated period of Japan, I was in the shoes of a young Japanese woman in an everyday kimono; my chestnut hair was long and braided down my back. I was delivering a sword I'd made to a man during the festival. Wandering into an old, wooden shop. I asked a lady in a lavished kimono, who stood behind a booth desk, if she'd seen Mr. Sayaka...? Sakaya? (I struggled with his name in the dream). She hadn't, and so I wandered further into the wooden structure which resembled a mall. I took the stairs down to see a troll. Charging towards it, I realized Sayado-san was curled into a ball beneath it, protecting a little boy. I kicked it. I pulled out the sword, getting his attention and giving them time to run. The troll picked me up and flung me into the air.

(I woke up because of my alarm)
Awaking somewhere else outside the mall, I ran into the same entrance I took before and down the stairs to find the troll being prodded by young men with sticks. I looked around for Sayamo-san, who was nowhere to be found. The sword was missing as well. As it swiped at the boys, I jumped in, punching it on the side of it's face. Landing, I led it away from the cowering boys, and up another set of stairs, towards a sitting area with books shelved across the walls. The troll swiped me in there, and soon I noticed Sakayo-san had his arms around me with the sword by his side. He had greying hair, probably twenty years older than I was, but his face was still quite young.

I can't remember who saved us, but it was someone from the [King of Fighters] (not Iori, Kyo, or K'). They smacked the troll around and then led the troll away from us. Samako-san pulled me to my feet, and as my legs couldn't stay steady, he held me in a hug. I felt my chest swell and my cheeks flush as he kissed me. When I could stand on my own, he left with the sword.

(Another part after waking)
I walked along a dock to see two familiar faces with their toddler, sitting at a picnic bench and relaxing from the festivities.

(Woke up again)
I was running along a wall, away from something. Along the way, I waved to a boy. "Hi Kusanagi," I yelled as I ran past him.

Cookie and I travelled to a hotel resort for Mango's and Papaya's wedding. I was helping their wedding set up until I realized the time was 3:30pm. I found Cookie and we rushed back to our room to get ready.

On the way, I saw Papaya already in her white dress and I hid to avoid her. I wore my black summer dress because my formal attire would take me a while to get ready.

In my kitchen, I poured some milk in a dark blue mug and drank. As I finished the milk, I felt something smooth and solid slip into my mouth. Immediately, I stopped drinking, and as I abruptly pulled the mug from my lips, I heard something rattle in it. It was shards of glass. My mug was broken. I spat out the glass carefully, and dumped the cup's contents into the garbage.

I was in a gymnasium, and I'd just returned from an adventure. Everyone around me were in my class. Even after I'd returned from being away so long, no one cared I'd disappeared.

In the gym, black, folding chairs were arranged in rows of ten. Most of the seats were taken so I sat in the back. My crush sat third row from the front, and on the far left - he and his best friend with red hair. Beside me was an empty seat. It belonged to a girl I was jealous of because she also liked my crush. She was skinny with long, dark hair and dark skin. She wore mini skirts and denim shirts.

It was party time in class, and there were two students in the front making flavoured iced teas for everyone. I tried two flavours; I wanted to try one more. Getting out of my seat, I got in line. Behind the girl. I didn't want to hate her, but I did. So I asked if she tried the flavour I wanted. She said yes. She's tried all and wanted them to make a new drink.

As the line advanced, my crush and his friend were beckoning me from their seat. I left my spot and when I was in front of them, they pulled me down to sit between them. There wasn't an extra chair there, but somehow they squashed me between them. I noted that my crush was wearing the same pants as me. As I pointed this out, I stuck my legs out in front to show the my red, corduroy pants. He stuck his legs out too, then his friend followed suit. I couldn't decide if I wanted to take a picture of this happy moment or not.

The boys wanted information on the girl because, as it turns out, his friend had a crush on her.

At home, Cookie needed help with work so he brought in two technicians. I don't remember the first one well. The first technician was tall and in his late 20s.

The second tech came in after the first left. He was young, in his high school or middle school years. I could tell he had a major crush on me. Instead of work, we'd play [Pokémon GO] together.

We lived in a large house, like a step down from a mansion. There was a time when Cookie brought out rollerblades and I tried but I could only stand in them.

When work was done and it was time to go to dinner, I was getting ready. I knew younger was going through my laptop and stuff as I showered. I left the door open too. After he saw me, he told me to close my eyes and trust him. He blew out a breath. I wore a long, red dress and hat with gloves.

Cookie and I lived in a house with a large backyard. It was still a townhouse. We knew our weekend employer was visiting, so I was inside cleaning. It was cloudy outside and raining on and off, but the neighbours were having a little party outside on the front lawn.

I had the backyard doors open and Cookie was home with me. We saw our boss pass by the backyard door and we went to say hi. He was working on a project on our property. He commented on all the junk and papers I had strewed across our living room floor, and I told him I was cleaning up.

.-.-.-.

I was at my home, but it didn't look the same. It was a much larger, detached house. Cookie was moving things with someone, but eventually I noticed as time passed that family members which I have seen in years were appearing. Cousins and aunts and uncles had plates of food in their hands. Most of them ignored my presence, (after greetings, this was kind of normal in my family gatherings) even without saying hello. They were interested in getting food, and finding a place to sit in our furnished house. I spoke to one of my cousins, who at the last time I've seen had two children, in awkward formality.

As I went through my home, I noted there were definitely more than ten people in the house -- about twenty.¹ I found my mother and expressed my concern about how this was a health violation and we can be harshly fined if caught, but she brushed my words away.

.-.-.-.

I was outdoors in the city, which I had an inkling was in Hamilton, Ontario. I sat in a paved, pedestrian location, looking at (what I imagine, since I've never been in this area) [Tea Hut's] storefront selling bubble tea. Turning to my sister, I told her I wanted bubble tea, but she said 'no'.

"But we get it every Saturday!" I frowned. I really wanted my taro soy milk with tapioca, since I can't have regular milk.
