we were flying. oh god was it liberating and magnificent! the sky was so blue i f felt i bled into it. we were all dressed like WWII fighter pilot clothing. hats, goggles, coats, gloves. the whole shebang. it was a group of us in the sky. flying open aired single winged and propeller planes. (upon research to see if there is such a plane, there is! and it's from WWII! it's called a Zero)
below us was bright green grass that seemed to almost blend in with the sky at the horizon line (which we way way high and far from). in the grass was giant strips of highway laid right next to each other, making the ground below us just strips of highway and parks, highway and parks and highway and parks again. it kind of scared me for the people on the ground, if you lost your ball in the road and went out to chase it... not good news and there were so many children but they were all happy.
we were flying so high up and above the clouds and the air was so crisp and fresh an it just felt good to be up there and out of human sight from the ground.
the person in the lead was calling over the intercom. i recognized the voice as sami/
moonfl0wer's. she was going down. and fast. a little too fast. she was spiraling. i pulled to get higher so i can shoot down more drastically and follow her. it was scary as hell going that fast and feeling the wind rush and accelerating to the speed i was doing trying to get to the ground before she does.
eventually after a bumpy ride i kind of crash landed. i skid across a highway into the park area. i jumped out to find sami and we couldn't find her anywhere. the park was PACKED with people and i ran to the part that had all the picnic shelters. it felt like everybody was having picnic or a family reunion that day. suddenly sami's mother (whom i have never met in real life) joined me and was scared cause she heard sami was falling out of the sky. i patted her on the back frantically saying "look for her plane!" that is when we heard something land onto of the picnic shelters and then go down the row of them away from us. we ran down to the end of them and looked up, sami landed her plane on the top of the shelters and climbed out of the plane. she was wearing a black vinyl jumpsuit and a black modern flight helmet.
she was okay and i was relieved.

i was half of an fish that was brown and scaly in color (like an anchovy or something) and half of a beautiful woman. i was thinner and had cooler boobs than i have now and long flowing silk like hair. i was leaning into the motorboat that my friends were riding in as we rode through the bayou. i clinged to the side and giggled as we went fast. eventually we went to school that had canals in some parts for the few people like me or sometimes i had to hop on my tail to get to other places and sometimes i was pushed in a glass case full of water to get to classes. went to and from class a lot but today was a special day because it was a big performance day so we were all excited. it's a big event.
the school was white marble and glass with lots of water though most everybody was human, very few of us were of an "other" kind. there was a centaur, to be sure and i. there could of been others, maybe sirens. it felt like it was in the future and the present at the same time. the present was when we were in the bayou and the future was when we walked the halls, but it was all one time line.
as i got in line to perform, with my friend in line with me, i looked up and into the area that was shaped like an open ended cylinder with the sky at the top. giant ribbons cascaded down from the sky and fluttered in the gentle breeze as people flew into the air and danced while beautiful music played. i was to climb off the side of a boat in the waiting wing and perform in the water out in front of tiers of people with terraces built into the walls of the auditorium. it felt so beautiful and one with everything though i was obviously different. i wondered what i tasted like as a fish.
