All entries on dreams are from (or I got the idea from) the book A Witches Book of Dreams which I didn't write and really don't even own. A friend lent it to me because I let her borrow a book and she knows how much I love the paranormal. Moo! Yes, this is probably going to be a more boring chapter, especially after that nightmare thing and Kazahaya reading Rikuo's diary, but I'm pretty sure that I'll find a way for what is told here to be used (I have the ending planned, but from here to the end is completely blank…). Enjoy this moo chapter! Oh, and the last chapter was supposed to say Chapter Five, but I forgot to edit it.
Chapter Six
Kazahaya went down the stairs hesitantly, guilty at knowing these things about Rikuo. "Kazahaya?" Kakei asked as the boy sat down in his seat at the table.
"I'm…What?" Kazahaya asked, sort of nervous.
"Is there something wrong?" Rikuo asked, worried.
"Um, yeah," Kazahaya said, "I have a really bad headache. I'll go get some medicine after breakfast."
Rikuo nodded and returned to his food.
Kazahaya took a slice of toast and then turned to his father. "Dad, I had an odd dream last night,"
Kakei smiled. He himself had always had an interest in paranormal things and he believed that dreams were part of this category. He had always wanted his son to become interested in such things, but Kazahaya always brushed it off as fake. "What happened in it?" Kakei asked.
"Well, in real life, I was wondering where something was and then I dreamt about the missing things location and found it there," Kazahaya said cryptically.
"Hm…" Kakei said, holding back an 'I told ya so', "Well, I'd try looking up what some of the other things in your dream meant. It might give you a clue on why the item you found is important and why you needed to find it." He smiled at Kazahaya and then added, "If you remember, I bought you a book on dreams a few years back. That might help."
Kazahaya ignored Rikuo's snort and then retreated back to his room after taking a pain reliever pill to look for the dream book. He finally found it and flipped it open to read some of the pages he thought might be useful.
Dreams can be made of nothing more than the subconscious trying to communicate to you. For example, a woman has lost her ring and doesn't know what happened to it. She dreams that night about the ring sliding off her finger into a flower pot she was watering and the next day finds her ring where she dreamt it was. Some people believe that this is because the woman has psychic abilities when in truth, her subconscious recorded the fact that her ring slipped off and understood her worries and showed her where her beloved ring was. The subconscious may say things in an obvious way, such as this, or will leave a more confusing message. The following chapter has more information on these messages.
He frowned thoughtfully as he studied the page. He had always known that that stack of books had been in Rikuo's room. Was it possible that his subconscious had recorded the fact that 'Caring for Horses' was a suspicious book for Rikuo to own? He thought that this made more sense than Kakei's explanation that had been forced upon him much more when he was younger, that if someone has such a dream that they have strange powers of sorts.
Kazahaya flipped to the next chapter, read through a few of the definitions, scoffing at some of them. He almost shut the book until he remembered why he was going through the book in the first place. He thought back on his dream and then decided to look for something having to do with a bed, since that was were he had seen Rikuo in his dream.
Bed
Your place of rest, safety, and relationships, a bed may be about your level of passion for a lover or your sense of security. Are you asleep in your dream? Are you under the covers? Is there some stranger in your bed (an unknown aspect of yourself threatening your security)? See Room.
Kazahaya reread the passage and then thought about how he had changed into Tsukiko in Rikuo's bed. It had to have some significance. He thought about what other words to look up and tried Transformation and Change, but the book had neither. He frowned and then tried Kiss, since Tsukiko had kissed Rikuo in his dream.
Kiss
A coming together in a time of love, a kiss represents union. A kiss is the start of a merge into one. If you are kissing a member of the same sex, you are integrating other aspects of your identity or it could mean self acceptance. Less positively, is the kiss feels wrong; it might be a warning of betrayal. Don't be "betrayed with a kiss". See Daimon; Lover
"Betrayed with a kiss?" Kazahaya read out loud as he remembered his dream again. "I won't be, I wasn't kissed. So will Tsukiko betray…Rikuo?" Kazahaya snorted remembering that Saiga had told him that Tsukiko wanted to watch Rikuo suffer.
Kazahaya read through a few others, but found nothing else that was interesting and so shut the book and placed it with Rikuo's diary incase he had any other odd dreams before leaving his room to try and get answers from Rikuo.
