I don't remember how I got there, but it was Ell-o, Henry and I in this intricate tunnel system. We were looking for this boy's father, who also turned out to be my father, as I was a guy. The man, an older teenager, told us that we needed to go to a certain tunnel and find him. I told him it was the one east while he argued it was west. I was given a few artefacts - a strange pair of scissors, an owl watch and this knife contraption. I took the watch because it would only go on me, as I was the "Good" one.
He was standing behind this counter made of driftwood, and had many different items on the shelves. Beside him was this octopus that he used for light, which he case a spell on to burn its tentacles. We found the father, and he used to speak Spanish, but barely remembered any words. Near him there was this shed, and I almost found my real sister and mother in it, but they ran out into another room from a door that led out of the shed. The shed, inside, was my bathroom. I got into the bath and lay down in the water.
The father talked about losing his teeth. He was an old man. We left him in the eastern tunnel and got to this building with a four-sided verandah. Two of the sides were blank, but on the third side, there was a tall brown door with a keyhole and beside it, a green one with an intricate door-frame. I couldn't open either. On the next side, I gave Ell-o the knife and looked over to a garden where there were these strange green people putting blue clay on their heads. They would wet it with water from a small fountain, and then mould it into a circle and put it on their heads. They stood for secrets. I jumped across a pond, and watched one put it on his head. I asked if I could hear the secret and he said that we weren't able to.
We left the garden and went to the teenager again. While going to him, we came across this kitchen cabinet, and thought maybe there was something special about it. I took a picture of it, but in the photo it came out differently. There was a microwave in the corner while everything else was wooden and old. Beside the cabinet, there was a television playing an old show in black and white. We continued to the teenager, where he told us to go to this tunnel surrounded by hearts. It was in the west, he said, but I told him we found Father in the east.
The tunnel supposedly had hearts surrounding it, and he hadn't named it, so we had the honour. I was going to call it the Love Cave, but he was having trouble lighting his octopus' tentacles. He used magic to burn one at a time and keep them alight, but they kept extinguishing, and he yelled that he would eat it. All I could hear was it screaming, "It's too strong! It's too strong!" in a static voice. Unfortunately, it didn't stay alight, and he ate it by sucking it up like spaghetti. Then he pouted and pursed his lips. I left, but then it focused on him in a small area boxed in by bricks.
He was trying to eat a huge tentacle monster, and it laughed at him when he couldn't. It pushed him to the ground, and whacked his head with a tentacle so that all you could see was his pursed lips. Even my dreams have humour. I panicked and asked how he died. I yelled and screamed, but then I woke up and never found out.

Hopefully, you have happy dreaming.
