I seem to have lost about 6 months of posts so I apologize. If I recover them, I'll repost. Lets see if this one 'sticks'.
We all know I read and watch "strange" things. I Love the supernatural/fantasy/sci-fi stories. So it's never a surprise when they somehow integrate into my dreams.
There was a type of supernatural civil war. Each side was trying to wipe the other out. Light vs Dark, tale as old as time.
At first I thought it was about the Fae but it seemed to be all supernatural beings. But there was definitely a distinct Light vs Dark. The Dark wanted to conquer and enslave the Earth, the Light wanted harmony. The Dark was winning, the Light was driven into hiding to survive.
At some point we are summoned to a council where one of the heroes is there with news. This has to end. The universe needs balance. There is no Dark without the Light. He will go on a mission to the Dark to work out a truce to save us all.
What no one seemed to understand is if the Light and Dark destroyed each other, the world would die. Humans, animals, all of the Earth would cease to exist.
The mission of peace failed. The hero and his team were killed before they could deliver the message to the queen. The Light was disbanded and went further into hiding. I was in a human apartment in New York City with 3 friends. A vampire, werewolf, and Fae Prince "in waiting". I was some sort of human fae mix but was part of the Light. The "prince" was our mission, he needed to be kept safe....he was the Dark Queen's son but didn't agree with how the Dark had become so he fled to the Light for safety.
We were cooking dinner in the apartment, cutting up and having fun despite the circumstances. We were making steaks and teasing the werewolf about wanting his steak raw. He said it's how he keeps his physique which resulted in extensive laughter. We ended up in the bathroom lined up in front of the mirror comparing "abs" which the werewolf, had like...an ab. Not fat just not defined. This is the point where I recognized him. It was Nathan Fillion. But like him, not him as a character. Apparently he'd always been a wolf and kept it hidden from "hollywood". It was such an odd addition to the dream....
While we were cutting up a perimeter alarm went off i.e. a chihuahua was like "Yo I hear something". We were still shirtless (I had a sports bra on) so we scrambled to get our "get the f**k ou bags" and get the Prince out. The 3 of them managed to get out the "secret" door but I tripped trying to grab the chihuahua. I managed to push him through and re-hide the door before the front door blew open. I tried to hide but it was no use I was found by a Rottweiler and dragged out.
He was shockingly gentle but I was terrified, this was the queen's pet which means she came herself to take or kill her son. As I came face to face with the enemy I could only hope they made it out of the building before her army got here.
She lifted me by neck and threw me on the couch. Before I could blink she was sitting on top of me pinning me down. I managed to wriggle free and tried to run but was thrown to the ground. We grappled back and forth but she was full fae and I was not as strong. I somehow managed to pin her on couch like she'd had me before. I was trying to get her to listen to me. But she was spewing angry words of hate and disgust. She hated me especially since I was a half breed.
I managed to cover her mouth and said "just listen! This isn't about you and me. It's not about you and your son. Stop acting like you are on a talk show. This isn't f**king Oprah!"
When I said that the Rottie attacked me. I distinctly remember the teeth sinking into my wrist. I screamed but got free. I was losing the fight trying to hold her down and fight off a pissed off dog. She pulled my hand away and gave a command and the dog stopped. I was holding my wrist fighting back tears and said "please just listen. The Universe NEEDS balance. There is no Dark without the Light. If you kill us all you will die too! The Earth will die and life will cease to exist! We have to stop"
She sat up inhumanely fast. She had fangs dripping blood, face no longer the beautiful queen *WTF the queen of the Dark doesn't have fangs*. She was holding me close to her face, mouth by my ear and said "the dead don't want to kill you, we want to breed you, harvest you, and eat you."
I remember realizing the Dark was no longer the Dark as we knew them. They weren't the opposite to the Light. They were never bad just the Ying to the Yang....but these weren't that, these were bloodthirsty monsters who only lived to consume. As she sank her teeth into my shoulder and tore my skin from the bone, I woke up...screaming.
