An accident happened with mushrooms, a special rare mushroom actually, and it turned a bunch of people into gods. Well they were like gods, with magnificent powers, and benevolent natures for the most part. A mutation of the species for the better. But the world was afraid and locked them all up, dictated who they could marry, what they could be named, when and where they could go and what they could own. I was one of them. They forced me to marry a guy, a normal guy unpowered ( they thought we could pass it on genetically so they were trying to water down the line) also locked up in this sector. The thing was, I really was in love with his sister. Even when the court ruled I marry him I protested saying I'd rather marry her but to no avail. I bought a sword. I had an 8 foot blade which said Game of Thrones, a collectors item. Mostly it was the length which impressed people, it was taller than I was. I could wield it because of my powers but I didn't know how yet. I was so excited to learn. Two little blonde girls wanted swords too but I told them I had bought mine for $40 which was very very good deal and they would have to buy theirs at cost. But they were wealthy and they got theirs by asking their parents. They got bored soon after receiving them however. I lived with his sister a while, while he was on a trip. "Lived" implies we had a choice, it was a jail cell of a room for two. I was happy though, glad to spend time with her. But she wasn't as happy to see me, she missed her brother, maybe her freedom. She wasn't given powers by the mushrooms but she wasn't free. Most weren't these days. People lived in fear of us with the mushrooms. I wanted to be free. One day when out in the countryside with my husband's sister I turned into a giant mushroom, a different breed then that which turned us, and spewed spores all over the area. Hundreds, maybe thousands, of new little mushrooms would be born. I hoped it would terrify them. Nowadays mushroom were irradiaticated when found, they were now deemed illegal everywhere. I went home and planned to run away. I was going to take the mushroom network which stretched across the universe and go live on another planet. I was going to take everyone with me. But my roommate showed up at the door just as I was leaving. She had powers now, it turned out all the spores I had released had done some damage, they had turned her. But she was angry. She used her powers to suck out my own. Abruptly mine were gone. Then I was visited by all those I had turned the first time, when I was first infected. They were powerless now too. She was so angry and she was gone but we were left there, imprisoned and powerless. Later the powers came back, they weren't permanently burned out but just drained for a time. I still planned to leave. I ran into the man who was my husband in a nightclub during the day. He had a different name, as the one I knew him by they had given him, and he didn't know me. They had let him free and erased his memory. I left him. ~ I was eating food on a buffet, this was in the early days of the above dream. I ate a lot of different foods but kept coming back to the pizza. I really wanted it but I couldn't be sure it was vegan. Somehow I knew I was dreaming and kept trying to convince myself since it was dream pizza it wouldn't hurt anyone, I kept going to eat it, but something stopped me. Conscious I guess. I didn't know I was in a dream enough to know I could will the change of the pizza into vegan pizza. ~ There was something about me being sorry I tried to kill the cockroaches and sad I scared them away after someone told me they were my children.
