LUCID369

Present day

  • A new pharmaceutical company named LUCID369 is testing a new drug that they claim can control a persons dream.
  • They are doing test trials on volunteers in their test facility
  • The test facility is a large secret building in a remote desert town (Area 51)
  • Dr. Zee (Lab Director) is in charge. He has a team working with him.
  • Dr. Zee meets with the board (9 am), including CEO, Dr. Killans to explain how the drug works
    • Dr. Killans is evil and is all about the $$$
    • The drug is a pill that is taken before a person goes to sleep
    • The pills come in different "flavors"
    • Each flavor is a different type of dream (e.g. Fantasy, Action, Love Story, Nightmare, etc)
    • Dr. Zee explains human testing begins today and participants arrive at 10 am
  • Three "fantasy/sci-fi" test trials are currently in progress (Flux55, Privet4, Yellow Brick)
  • The team chooses a test study (Process?, Ghost Busters?)
  • They are testing 3 variations of the bill (red, blue, green)
  • This is the sci-fi fantasy department
  • There are other departments in the building, however the focus of book one will be on the sci-fi/fantasy department
  • 10 am - The three volunteers arrive on-time and are sitting in the lobby per the receptionist request.
  • Each is filling out paperwork, waivers and such. When finished, each tester gets up out of there seat and gives the papers back to the receptionist.
  • Inside the lobby, it look like a normal doctors office. Basic chairs, end tables with magazines, a television on the wall with the weather on.
  • There are no other people in the lobby. Only the three volunteers.
  • The door opens and a man with a white lab coat waives them over. He instructs them to follow him down the hall. They walk towards him and follow him through the secure door
  • As they walk down the hall, it looks like a doctor's office. People with lab coats working. All of the doors are closed so they cannot see what's going on.
  • The man stops at a door and tells, tester 1 to go here. The door is numbered 3. The tester opens the door and goes inside. 
  • The man starts walking again and tells the other two to follow.
  • He stops at door #6 and tells, the next participant to go here.
  • Then, he takes the last person down the hall to door #9.
  • Once inside, the participants go through the same routine. There are two lab techs in white coats and masks that seat them on a table.
  • They explain that they will be testing a new pill to help them sleep. The pill will let them dream. 
  • They will be testing the dream pill for fantasy dreams.
  • The techs look up electro monitoring devices on their body which is hooked up to a computer.
  • The room looks like a typical doctors office exam room
  • The volunteers are given a glass of water and a pill. 
  • They are given instructions (pill will make them go to sleep in 5 minutes and they will awake in 8 hours)
  • They will be monitored all night (vitals, brainwaves, etc)
  • If they happen to wake up, they can press the red button to alert the techs.
  • Each volunteer takes a pill and goes to sleep.

  • At the end of each of the participants dreams, the dreams ends with a person opening a door and entering a room (Level 2, Matrix)
  • The other participants are in the room. The room is small, all white and no doors. There's light from above but it's solid and one cannot make out where or what it's coming from
  • The people talk and share each others dreams, who they are, where there from and what's going on
  • Why are they here? Is this apart of the dream? Is there a problem. 
  • After time, they start to panic and look for a way out!
  • One of the participants discovers the hidden door
  • Everyone in the group leaves via the secret door
  • The door leads to a dark cave-like tunnel (Goonies)
  • At the end of the tunnel, there's a door.
  • On the other side of the door is a maze (Level 3)
  • The group thinks there being tested like mice and are getting angry
  • They try to figure out how to get out
  • They try to wonder how long they have been asleep
