The Lake of Magic

I woke up at around 4 am after a dream.
It was still early so I continued my sleep and my dream until 6 am.
I was walking with Sve's younger brother on a bridge platform on a small lake.
This bridge is dangerous as some parts of the wooden platform will suddenly sink.
Sve's brother got caught in one of the sinking platform so he fell into the water.
His body sank into the bottom of the lake and never surfaced out of the water.
I was in great sadness because he is forever gone.

I walked out of the lake and looked back in sadness, still no sign of him.
A friend appeared and told me that I could still save what was left behind of him.
He said that I can at least save his belongings for remembrance.
He pointed at a blue balloon piece floating on the lake.
It seems to be part of the balloon owned by Sve's brother.
The piece floated close to the shore so I quickly ran and jumped into the water.
The lake is so deep that I can't see bottom.
Even though I jumped at the lake edge, the water is not shallow, it is at least 3m deep.
I dived deeper and immediately reached to the lake floor.
I was scratched a little by the corals down there but I continued
looking for the balloon pieces behind rocks.
I finally found the piece and retrieved it to the surface.

After leaving the lake, I reached a train station just beside the lake.
I crossed the double railroad which is very risky.
Many speedy trains are passing the rails non stop.
I managed to pass the railways safely and reached a government building.

I am still not sure why I come here.
Outsiders are not allowed to enter but somehow I happen to be wearing a
green uniform similar to the guards in there so they thought I am one of them.
I wandered around, not sure what I am supposed to look for.
Somehow I knew that the government people here are evil.

I think I woke up around 4am at this part and slept again.
Many years has passed in my dream.
I am almost middle aged now.
Somehow all these years I have became the guardian of the lake.
I always hide from the public so no one can find me as.

My dream sucks. The magical lake should look magical like this and the guardian should be a beautiful one

Though I (as the first character in this dream) became the guardian,
I now dreamed as another person.
It is quite confusing I know.
There is the previous "me" as the lake guardian and the another "me" that is someone else.

So as the current "me", I meet the guardian (previous "me") of the lake.
He shared his knowledge of the magic of the lake with me.
Whenever somebody visits the lake, he immediately hide and asked me to hide myself too.

One day, 2 staffs from the government building were enjoying a picture on the wall.
The picture is a drawing of a bird and squirrel together.
The picture is an ancient riddle containing a hidden message waiting to be revealed.
It goes something like this:
"Bird or Squirrel,
you can only choose one,
because both of them cannot coexist together"

It's a very strange riddle, and a tough one too.
They cannot solve the riddle and decided to go for a walk at the lake.
As usual, we hid ourselves.
They walked around and relaxed themselves by enjoying the view.
Look at the animals, they saw a squirrel and a bird together.
They walked away decided to get back to their building.

One of them suddenly stopped.
He looked back and said that he understands the riddle!
Birds and squirrels cannot coexist with each other but
he noticed the a bird and a squirrel together near the lake.
"There is something wrong with this lake" he said, "something must be on".
They searched and searched around the lake and finally found us !
Luckily these staffs are not evil like other government officers.
Since we knew they are good guys, we explained everything to them.

The guardian told us about a magic skill he has obtained from years of training.
It is a spinning power where he use it to create animals around the lake and control them.
However, this spinning power can be used as a deadly weapon too.

Bad things always love to spoil good moments.
A top ranking officer in the government came to the lake bringing trouble.
She is a tall and serious lady.
Following her are a group of government workers.
As usual, we all hid ourselves.
I hid in the lake water under a floating log.
Through the hole in the log, I peeped at the lady who is just in front of me!
Apparently, the group is here for something that they have been looking for a long time.
They began searching for what they are looking for.
Then the lady looked towards me and lifted the log.

Our hideout has been compromised!
We ran and tried to escape.
The guardian can feel the same magical spin power from the lady.
He told us that these government group are here for some
serious reasons regarding the magic power of the lake
So both group started battling.
The guardian and the lady are ready to battle face to face
while the animals of the lake attacked the government group.
A dog took out his pistol and shoot at the government guys
then a capybara owned by the government group came and knocked the dog down.

The fight became hectic so I tried to stay out of it and find a safe way to get away.
Somehow the dream ended here or I have forgotten what happened after this.
