I know that several of my friends were in it, but I can only remeber Bronwen specifically. We were travelling around the world for some reason which I can't remember. I know at one point we re-visited the scene where the Mystery Machine ran off the ground. We were arguing about whether or not it had been our fault. I'm ot sure now if they had been followiing us, chasing us, or if we were followin them. They were following directions we had given them... I think maybe we were both trying to get away from something, or get to some place really fast, and they didn't believe us when we'd said that the road was really steep during this turn (It dipped very sharply just as it turned to go over a railroad track), and didn't slow down enough. Of course, our van (which was black... i think we were working for the givernment, or at least some of us were. Someone with us wound up being a spy) was more modern and high-tech than the scooby van, and we had been fine.

We'd stopped to look over the spot on the way to Russia, where Bronwen lived. We were coming from looking at a forest clearing where we had faced various villains, most of which were from various cartoons. We were kind of in a hurry, though, because we wanted to get...somewhere (To Kitty's, past Kitty's... to stop there and then move on, I am not sure) before they did some sort of nuclear testing in the city where she lived. The government claimed to have developed a bomb that only had 30 meters of fallout and other negative effects, and decided that the city was the best place to test it. We didn't really believe them, so we wanted to be further away than that.... but still close enough to see what was going on (as I said, spies).

Eventually, we got to Bronwen's apartment. It was in a skyscraper in kind of a suburb area, and the bottom floor was a little food place. The others went upstairs, and I was ordered to get food, but quickly, because there was some law about rations or something... one person could only buy so much food. So, for everyone *but* B, I got these giant potato hash-brown things withvinegar. She wanted *three* meat sandwiches. She was really hungry, I guess! Anyway, I knew that was waaay too much food for one person, so I lied and said she had kids. And then I pai, in these weird gelatin masks. They were like wobbly transparent peach face imprints. I can't explain. I paid for the potato things fine, but when I was counting out the masks for the sandwiches, I was short. I think I had 45 (They were worth 5 each. 5 what I don't know!) and they were 70 or so. But since I was topless, and they guy had been enjoying looking at my lovely rack hroughout the exchange (Why was I topless? I don't remember having been topless before *or* after this point!), he smiles and said it was fine. And I knew he wasn't going to turn us in either, for being there illegally, or for buying to much food. Hooray for the power of my boobs!

There was a brief scene inside B's apartment, which looked kinf of like the inside of Shan's apartent, or at least her living room. The carpet was the same ugly, stained, brown, anyway, and the room was about the same size. There was little furniture aside from one couch and a boocake on the far wall that had soem books, and some of B's drawings of various SM characters. I think there was a neat of of Nephlyte. Oh, and did I mentiopn B was totally dressed like a stereotypical poor little Russian girl, with the headscarf and drab brown overcoat? I think she had her hair in braids (It was long, in the dream). We worked out the sleeping arrangements (all of us on the floor, whee!), we ate 9B did not eat all three sandwiches... she was hoarding food! ;)

The next day, or at least the next part of the dream, had us rushing to get across the city before the test was performed. We didn't quite make it. I remember seeing the bomb go off in the distance, the mushroom cloud and such. But it *was* pretty small, so maybe the Russians had succeeded! Anyway, we had to hole up/hide in a factory where B worked (I think... at least she had a pass to get in). It was very much like some place out of FF7. We were able to hide for a while, but eventually someone (a guard?) spotted us. We were able to hide, but now the spy guy (Who was wearing a black jumpsuit, and had red hair, and was older and tall) decided that if we werebn't goign to be a hindrance to him, we needed to learn how to fight! So he set up this loose bungee cord like thing stretching fro wall to wall, so that we would be kind of suspended by wrapping our hands in it as we tried things out. B went first. Sorry girl, you can't fight! You were having trouble with the cord thing, which was basically wrapped aroun your wrists to keep you from falling, and measued the strenght of your blows or something. Anyway, the guy then showed you how to maximise your fighting effectiveness by using smaller, faster motions to keep your opponent distracted, and basically nickle and dime him. I went next, and I did alright. I think that's when I woke up :o
....and now it is time for pancakes and bacon!
