Secret town

Date: 11/6/2025

I decide to take a trip by myself southeast towards the gulf. It seems like I’m going to get some time to myself. I decide to turn off the main road and start driving down a dirt road. I become fascinated by the winding nature of the road and how it seems like the road slowly becomes less and less maintained. It narrows after a bit and thick vegetation seems to start encroaching on it from the sides. I come upon a church where lots of people seem to be standing outside, I consider stopping, but i get a strange vibe from the people and decide to keep driving. I come upon a small town and decide to stop and look around. A woman approaches and we start to talk. She seems distracted. We talk and I come to understand that the people in the town, and those living nearby, are afflicted by some kind of curse. On certain nights some people turn into werewolves. Some people do not turn into werewolves for some reason, but they just feel really sick and have to lay down. I happen to be there during a time when people turn into werewolves. The woman I’m with and I walk into a church and I see many of the townsfolk laying on gurneys everywhere. They’re starting to get sick because it is time for people to turn into werewolves. Other townspeople who aren’t as afflicted by sickness serve as nurses or caretakers for everyone else. Some of the less afflicted residents also serve as sentries at the town border, primarily at the main roads entering the town, to protect the town from the people who turn completely into werewolves and who pose a danger to the towns people. It occurs to me that the people I’d seen gathering at the church outside town were probably ones who completely turned to werewolves. As time passes i start to feel not so good. It’s not significant, and I’m not doing nearly as bad as others, but I feel flat and it’s hard to focus. The woman I’m with asks if I want to walk away from the church for a bit and I agree. As we’re walking away she asks if I want to have sex with her and I agree (she’s very pretty btw, with long dark hair). She takes me to a field and we have sex. Somehow I realize that the real reason she wants to have sex with me is because I am barely afflicted by the werewolf condition, and that by having sex with me she would receive some of that resistance (through the sperm?? Idk). I also realize that she has more nefarious intentions because the less she is afflicted the more authority she can wield in the community to make decisions for the town, and she wants to be able to exploit this power for her own gain. Now I become sort of part of a rebel group that has decided that the citizens in the town are being exploited by the less affected individuals. There’s some sort of choosing of leaders and some bad people are chosen. Another less affected guy says something sarcastic about the situation. At some point I realize i need to get out of this town, but the roads leading away are in bad shape and/or blocked, so I try to figure out a way to evacuate. Me and some other people flee to a large run down industrial building and hide. I’m hiding high up in the ceiling in some sort of vertical tube and I see our pursuers milling around below trying to find us. Something falls to the ground and alerts them to our presence. I drop to the ground among them. I think there’s some sort of standoff or fight with clubs or sticks, but I can’t remember what happened. I think I woke up around this point.
