Strange Dreams

I had the strangest dream, I've had in awhile last night. I was somewhere near the Dane County Coliseum  in Madison, Wisconsin and there was this disease that made almost everyone turn into humanoid pig monsters, except several people who made it to the Coliseum. That didn't last long though, as the infected people started to make their way to the Coliseum.

I met a woman there (also unaffected) and I'm sure we talked, I just don't remember what she or I said.  She gave me a ride to my childhood neighborhood in Fitchburg, Wisconsin near the house I grew up in.  The house we entered was nothing like anything I remember.  It had a dark hardwood floor and a table in what I can only assume is the living room, with a bouquet of flowers on it.  That's all I saw of the house before waking up briefly.

I then fell back into the dream only to have the lady hit me in the back of the neck, knocking me out.

I woke up (in the dream) in a lab with a man standing over me, dazed and confused. I would later come to find out this confusion had resulted in my kitsune genes activating.  I was half kitsune (yes, as in the mythical Japanese fox shape-shifters). Apparently, my subconscious thinks my real father is a male kitsune. I found this odd because in Japanese myth kitsune, when in human form, always take on the appearance of a human female who ends up seducing a human male.  Not the other way around.

The dream ended before I could figure out if I was genetically engineered or not, but it was bizarre nonetheless.  I may however, use something similar in my novel, The Hogoshiro Chronicles.

Sayonara!
