The Evasion - Original Version

Chapter 6

First, my second-year classroom, then the CIMS campus, and now the Government University campus. Why do the places that are barely connected to me, have to come in my dream?

I have visited this campus a couple of times, so I know where the parking lot is situated, and I go there looking for my car.

I'm not sure whether my car will be there as I was teleported directly from my house to the second-floor corridor, but I still decided to take a look. I walked through the entire parking lot, and I couldn't find my car. From this campus, I need to take two buses to reach my place, which will be a tiresome ride. I already feel exhausted by the events of the dream.

Feeling weak on my legs, I lean against a tree. I look up to see the sky, it is bright, and the sun shining, but the rays are not piercing through my eyes as it usually does. Despite my parents being strict, I have always had control over my life, so far. And I hate when this dream is controlling me.

I feel let down and almost lower my head, and then suddenly the idea bulb glows over my head. Control. How I haven't thought about it. When I have the ability to crack the logic behind the dates of the murder and fool the murder to escape, I can gain control over my dream. I can change whatever this dream into a lucid dream.

I need to do it. I need to get control over my dream.

I keep repeating this as a mantra. I feel a slight tremble on the ground like there was an earthquake with a few Richter scales. I hold the tree for balance. I'm not sure whether it is correct to hold a tree when there is an earthquake. The shaking stops after a few moments.

How could there be an earthquake in the dream world?

I'm not good at geography or earth science, but there could be the only one possibility for me to experience the earthquake-like shaking. It must be a response from my body, which means I am gaining control over my dream.

I close my eyes for a second, taking a deep breath, I think. When I open my eyes, my car will be parked in front of me. I slowly open my eyes, and there my car was parked, shining under the bright sunlight.

A victory smile breaks on my face, and I march toward my car and sit inside it. The more I gain control over my dream, the more I can snap out of the dream.

Well, when I realized that I'm dreaming itself, I got into lucid dreaming mode. It took until now for me to realize it. I need to awaken my conscious brain and wake up completely.

I prepare myself to give it a try, as I'm not an expert in lucid dreaming. I grip the steering wheel and close my eyes to concentrate. Then suddenly, a thought clicks in.

Why does this dream have to be a serial killing thriller type of one? What could be the reason behind the serial killing? If there is any reason or my mind, simply made it up? If I wake up now, will it be OK, or will it be like leaving a book without reading the last chapter or leaving the theatre before the movie ends?

Like this, so many questions invade my thoughts. I once again sit in my car, confused. So far, I was trying to wake up from the dream. Now when I find out the way to wake up, I'm thinking the other way.

Between waking up or finding the reason, I chose the second option. Now that I have realized that I can control my dream, I guess I can control the time as per my wish, and I can also move and teleport as I wish.

I sit straight in my car seat and close my eyes. I take a deep breath and I manifest.

When I open my eyes, I'm going to be in a different dress, and I'm going to see Guru walking out of the campus.
