2 dreams, one lucid

School bus •I'm walking on a street with my school friend. We look at a bus stand and it resembles a jumping castle. I tell my friend that the council made it look appealing to try and trick people to vandalise it so that they can catch them. We look up and see a security camera on the top. The wind then lifts up the front cover of the stand and four rows of clean seats are revealed. The school bus then arrives. It's the same design as a picture of an old train model from a few years ago that I saw yesterday in my legal studies textbook. It has light blue and dark blue colours. My friend and I walk on the bus and we sit down. A bunch of students at the front of the bus are looking at us because we're the only female students on the bus. They then start trying to harass us but we ignore them. I wake up from my sister walking into the room to get a towel. It's 6am. I'm on my side and roll on my back in hopes to have a lucid dream Subconscious * I'm standing in a secluded area where there's ruins of buildings made out of sandstone (they look new but they're just toppled over) and a vibrant green shrub. I see a small waterfall a few metres away that's mostly covered by the shrub. I'm already losing lucidity but I hear a voice telling me to ask my subconscious to make lucid dreaming easier for me in the future. I look up to the sky and tell it to make lucid dreaming easier for me to do in the future. An Xbox achievement bar comes up saying 'Achievement unlocked - ask subconscious'. I look up and see 'consciousness' written in the sky like it was written out of chalk. I feel more grounded now but the dream still doesn't feel vivid. I then hear a voice telling me to ask to speak to my subconscious. I remember whenever I did that in the past, the dream always collapsed causing me to wake up. I hesitate to ask but I finally decide to. I look at the ruins and ask to speak to my subconscious. I expect the dream to collapse in the next second but it doesn't. Instead a black, smoky figure appears. I ask it 'who are you?'. It replies, 'I'm the dark part of your subconscious'. It's the same voice that was telling what to ask earlier. It then starts flying away towards the waterfall. I run after it but as I'm running behind the shrub, the waterfall disappears and just leaves an empty path. I lose lucidity and carry on with my dream. I'm now in my backyard with the dark figure. It summons a big swarm of mosquitoes. I know he's trying to attack my chicks. I run to the chicken coop and lift up the cover. The mosquitoes are all over the eight of them. I immediately get a wooden plank and start trying to swat them away. The sun starts to set quickly. Evening turns to night and it gets dark. My backyard veranda light turns on and I can see again. I'm still swinging the plank to keep the mosquitoes off. I see the chicks huddling in the corner. A wave of fatigue washes over me but I keep going as some mosquitoes are still trying to get in their fur. I'm standing at a train station and many people from school are gathering up. I've planned a reunion as its been a few years since we've graduated. When they all arrive I tell them that we have to search for a restaurant at 8am to 9am. Most of the crowd quickly walks away as they don't wants to get up early but I think it's weird because it's around 6:30am in the dream. A few people are left so we go on a bus. An Asian man walks to the driver as I get in. He asks if there's any sugar in the water bottle he's holding. I see the word soda on it so I tell him it contains sugar since its soda. I sit at the back next to a man. He insults me and I yell back at him. I get up and walk to the front where my sister and three school friend are sitting. I sit down with them and then my sister wakes me up as she's finished showering.
