So last night, I had a really scary dream. It didn't start out bad at all, but as the time moved on, it got worse and worse.
It started out with a bunch of friends gathering together to watch a movie. We went out and got food for it and met at this modest looking house. I don't remember any kind of movie actually being played, but we all had a great time. My husband-to-be had to drive home or something so I walked him to his car and, after a few minutes, he left. I went back into the house--jumping over a few people that seemed to be asleep on the ground but I got this feeling that they were still watching me, almost waiting to pounce--to clean up the mess everyone had made now that they were all gone.
The strange thing is, when I got there the room was filled with smoke and I could smell the pot that this big group was smoking. I noticed that one of the girls that I'd jumped over on my way there and as high as a kite. I walked through the clouds of smoke and to the back room, there was some big guy behind me who was blocking the door. As I walked to the back, I chose the wrong door and found myself in a closet and the big guy behind me before had followed me there. I excused myself and started making my way around him, ducking my head to not meet his gaze as I did so.
I got just past him when he threw an arm around my neck, half choking me--I don't think he meant to hurt me, although he could have been high or. . . actually he seemed very coherent--and his other hand slid under my shirt and around my waist. His words were eerie as he whispered in my ear, "Do you wanna go have sex in the bedroom?"
Instantly I said, "No," rather forcefully and tried to get away.
"How about on the couch or on the floor?"
My reply was the same only so much more scared. I tried to get away and he held me back until I got my chin under his arm that was around my neck, it hung a bit loose, and bit down hard. He let go and I started sprinting away. I ran though the house, over people, but I couldn't find the exit. I ran into him twice and the girl I'd jumped over before had grabbed me. They were all screaming at me trying to get me back into the smoke.
Finally, after a lot of trying and almost crying out of fear, I got out of the house. I ran to the place where I'd dropped off my husband-to-be and started sprinting away. Just away. I didn't know where I was going, I just needed to get away. I kept running.
Then I woke to my roommate laughing and typing hard on her computer. I don't think she slept at all last night. At least she kept her earphones in, although that doesn't help much in the mood of the room. Even if I can't hear it, the mood gets dark.

Ideas and potentials
I only have like fifteen minutes before my boss comes back, but I have nothing to do. So just some ideas on where Cassy or Angela's story could be running off too. So. . .
For Jessica right now I have her going to the mall so then her friend, Kaycee, can tell her that she isn't a good friend, she's mean spirited, rude, and that Kaycee thinks that she's going to drop out and be pregnant before she's seventeen. (One of those predictions is correct, she does drop out a few months(?) later), and that Kaycee doesn't want to be seen with her anymore--cuz it hurts her image and the principle pulled her aside to ask if there was something wrong with Jessica, she started assessing her best friend and found too many faults (Tobias helped in that point, stupid guy.).)
Well after Jessica gets blown off by her "best friend," she runs out of the mall into a down pore, its a very rainy season in northern California. Airo follows after her and watches unto she passes out, practially, on the some lawn. She's going in and out of consciousness, because of mental termoil; Tobias isn't helping at all, yet again. She crumpled and started crying. Airo picks her up and asks if she's alright. When she doesn't respond and simply stares out the window with rainy tear-streaks down her face, he drives her to the police station--he doesn't know where she lives at this point.
The police station would be a very interesting place to go. Airo isn't supposed to take her anywhere, but he has the common decency to not leave her lying in the middle of a cloud burst without a friend. As he's driving her here, he gets a really good look at her and describes her. There is an almost facination and a curiosity that comes with her. Why does Tobias want her? And he doesn't want her in the normal ways he wants women--little background on Tobias?-- so why her? What is it about her that makes her so important? Airo wants to know and is asking himself. Tobias would answer but he isn't currently worrying about Jessica at the moment. (He's focused on making Angela's day hell.)
So apparently he's going to take her to the police station. After they find out where Jessica is from at the station, and family comes--who would come to get her? Tony? He already got her from her other little run-in in the rain. Angela? If Angela came could Gabriel accompany her? What would happen between the two of them? Would there be a battle of minds? No. Gabriel and Airo are far too noble for that in the middle of a police station. But now taht Gabriel knows that Airo is there, Gabriel knows that something is up. (When he talks to Alice about it, later after he "left" then came back again after the kids were asleep, she doesn't want to believe it and thinks that maybe Airo was there to see one of his friends in prison or something, to do anything but see her daughter in a police station of all things.(Airo actually gave Jessica a card or something. If she ever needed any help again to call him and he would be there. She almost throws it away, but sticks it in her pocket. She doesn't know who he is. He could be some maniac for all she knew of him. But for some reason she keeps it and uses the card later to get him there after her mom has died and after the club and Greg shows up.))
(Gabriel is there in the first place after being sent by his uncle, the king, to keep an eye out for Alice's family. They are of noble blood, even if they don't know it yet. Gabriel's facade to Angela and Tony is that he is there, with his sister?, on vacation and to simply see old friends. The king knows that something might happen to his cousin, Alice, or her family. He doesn't know the reason, but they believe Tobias is behind it, although there is no proof on the matter. When Gabriel hears that Tobias could be behind something happining to some family friends, he goes quicky to help and scout around what could potentionally be a hazardious happenings.)
Airo only gets out of the station without having his mind blown up because he Shuts his mind, which only makes his mind seem a little less suspicious as compared to all the other Close minded people. He stops to take a drink of water at a fountain around the corner as Gabriel walks by, then briskly walks out of the station. When he reaches the door, he turns around and sees that Gabriel is looking at him, glaring. Airo smiles and waves then quickly gets away while throwing all of his Walls up as he does so.
Jessica, now wrapped up in a blanket and sipping some coffee, doesn't really know what to do now that the man who helped her left. He'd given her a card with his name--Airo-- and number on it. He'd told her to call him if she ever needed help again. She almost threw the card at him and screamed that she didn't need his help, but he scampered away before she could do anything to his face about it. Jessa looks about and sees some of the people there. Sees their scars--arms, eyes, face, ear chuncks missing, tattooes, etc--and wonders why they did to end up here. A guy sits down next to her that she knows from school--Cuttin' Curtis. She almost talks with him and sees the many scars he has on his arms. No one knows why he does it. Some people think it's because he lost his dad, others because he killed his dog, others because his mom tried messed with his head, others because _____--the girl with the ivy tattooes on her legs--dumped him. A police man took him away before she could get a word out. She slipped the card into her bra and sipped her coffee just as her sister came into view.
They don't have a happy reunion. Angela was very worried and the only real emotion the was able to come out was anger. Angela started screaming at her sister and Jessica screams back. Gabriel gets into both of their minds and tries to quiet them. Jessica is too far tramatized after loosing her best friend and all of her other friends that came with Kaycee and just doesn't care or even hear Gabriel in her head. She was just too tired and wanted to go home to her own room and not think. Get lost in a book and think about someone elses life, to see that their lives get better or they die quickly or heroically before the end of the book or series of books is over.
Gabriel drives them home while Angela keeps talking about how worried they were about her and how scary it was to get a call from the police station after what they had gone through the night before, and on and on. Jessica hears none of it. Gabriel listens to Angela's babbling with one ear, one eye on the road, and mostly the attention on Jessica in the back seat. She was looking at her arms, as if she was picturing something, but even at a small glimps of her mind, he could see that it was blank. Three was nothing gone on. It was as if she had vacated the premisis of her mind and walked into someone elses, but he could see her Person inside, standing and doing nothing.
Jessica goes home and reads the rest of the day. Angela explains, still being dramatic, to Tony what happened. Tony says that she needs to cool down and that she needs to be more level headed and that Angela probably hurt Jessica's feelings. Angela says she'll apologize the next day. When Alice and Angela's father get back, things aren't happy either. Jessica takes the verble scolding, but is still lost in her mind. She's still thinking back on Curtis and leaves for her room.
Gabriel needs to talk with his mentor about what's going on. (He has a music teacher (who also helped with his Mind Powers as he was growning up without Tobias as a friend.) that taught him to play the saxaphone? instead of the other instruments that most of the other people around him learned how to play. They learned instruments from Trael, not from other places. And those that did, were normally seen as being unpatriotic toward their home planet. But when he started to play his own instrument--his father let him--it became the thing that they did. They would have one of their friends Jump them to another planet, if they could, and they would buy one of the best and learn how to play it. One of his friends, his best friend, taught himself how to play the bagpipes and be was so good at it so quickly that even the king wanted to hear him play. After that, it became more of a trend as the years past.) Gabriel talks with his mentor for a while. They discuss what is happening with Jessica--Bri cuts in and says something snide then is quickly ushured out--and Angela and what is supposed to happen with her and Tobias. While they talk about all of them, I won't write it down. It'll give it a little bit of suspence for the reader. Hopefully I can get some of the point across without making so much discussion and making it be far too long of a chapter. That may be a tricky part.
