Dreams and their consequences
Authoress note, please read! When I first published this story, back in 1999-2006, my English was poor. Even so, the most liked the story and plot but I felt insecure without a beta and stopped writing. I still need one badly for this one. I have taken it on and tried to redo it by myself, so all errors in it are still mine, shrugs. My problem is, I am still German and have troubles with it. I will leave the other three chapters on until I reworked them so you can see what I mean. Against the first one that I reread through the last days, they are troublesome to read for a native speaker of English and now, even me, sweat drops madly. Please be kind and let me know if I made a halfway descend job? I really need a beta, grrrr.
P.S. I was heavily laying down with a real and nasty viral infection the last two weeks in a row. We have caught the cold that is currently spreading through my hometown here. With running noses, headaches, coughs and fever. I really couldn't even look straight! So, sorry for not updating here and on other places, but I needed to recover and have to work in the next days to catch up on my lost job time. I will try to update my stories end of the week.

Chapter One
What incense can do to a poor detective and flat!
Did you ever have had a bizarre dream in your life before?
One of such that leaves you awake with not knowing if they were reality or a dream?
Leon Orcrot had once had such a dream. It included his most favorite criminal and him in a strange past reality… and after he awoke again in the end, he had an empty magazine and had shoot an already dead beast in the museum of history of LA. He got a nasty reprimand from his betters for the stunt and had to pay for the restoration of the exhibit in the very end.
Even now, months later the poor detective could not really tell for the life of him if it all had just been a bad dream, or… really more. The man swore under his breath, he was currently on a crime scene and still swore that he had shot an alive saber-tooth and not the stuffed out display that night!
Everyone else told Leon that he had shoot a long dead cat, he had even seen the evidence, however, the instinct of the cop told Leon something completely different all the time. It must have been a side effect of that stupid incense it must have been this, otherwise everything made no sense at all to Leon. Alternatively, he was going insane and believed suddenly in fairytales!
In spite of everything, right in this moment here in the middle of a murder crime scene, Leon's thoughts of that strange event did not leave the cop alone.
Here, in the rooms of a former brilliant and now dead Novelist, even here Leon could smell the cursed incense that the pet shop owner always used in his shop.
The smell did remind Leon of his still open case of that night of months ago. Of his need to explain completely what had happened there, in the museum.
His fellow detectives had long gone home; Leon was the only one here still. He searched for clues that the others maybe had missed in their tries to secure evidence, clues of this being another Pet Shop Case.
Suddenly his left hand hit against the formerly loosely closed carton in that the author had put the incense in all the time. Until he needed it to burn, it for his pet as his contract had told him to do so. Leon had seen the contract and just as always, D had a good cover for the dead time of the man and a contract for Leon to read…. sometimes the man hates his live!
How was it possible that the Chinese shop owner always seemed to know when he was about to ask him about something concerning one of his cursed killer pets?
With a sight, Leon gave it up for now and tried to put the incense back inside the box with his bare hands. Something like this could only happen to him! Now he would spend the next hour or so probably to put it back, he cursed profoundly while he hand-shoveled the stuff back into the container.
With each following second, the man began to feel dizzier and tired, just as he had done it before in the museum with D.
When Leon shortly closed his eyes to rub the tiredness out of them that had snuck up on him, it happened.
From one second to the other the cop found himself back in a strange place. A place he had never seen before in his life or even in the TV!
He was inside of a Forrest.
The trees grew here so tall; Leon could not see the end of them when he craned his neck to look up!
Everywhere around him, were trees and wildlife, what the hell had happened? He needed a while to get it in that he was inside of another weird dream whilst he looked panicky around himself. Then Leon let loose such a wild streak of curses that would have had D hitting him if he had been there to hear them. All directed against a certain slimy owner of a pet shop in Chinatown.
The cop wandered for hours around in the strange place after that. Every now and then, he asked himself if he would wake again later and couldn't prove it, that he was ever here. Like he couldn't prove it the last time.
The strangest thing about this Forrest was it that it gave not a single animal here as it seemed!
He saw not even a mouse…it was as if only the threes were there and nothing else.
Suddenly a chirping sound to his left let the police officer freeze mid-step, what was that?
When he turned to the noise, Leon saw something that made his stomach turn and brought him on the edge of vomiting in mere seconds. Even being battle hardened, as Leon was it from his line of duty he couldn't help it. The sight he saw was just too horrible, even for Leon.
In the center of an opening in the thick woods, lay a nest like thing on the ground. Inside of it sat two young and helpless looking bird-like creatures and they had made the heart wrenching chirping sound that brought him here.
Next to them lay a much bigger version of the child birds, dead as nothing else…or so it seems to Leon at the first look at it.
In fact, it was still alive, but nearly unconscious from pain. The only indicator that the cop had for this musing of the bird still being alive, was it that the big and huge bird sometimes shuddered as if it had big pains all the time. When Leon came slowly closer, he saw that hundreds of tiny blackish ants looking things run over the torn open skin and flesh of the poor beast. It hit him suddenly that the creature was eaten alive from some killer ants!
Right next to its nest, to its young!
Without to think about it twice, he jumped forward and snatched the younger birds out of their nest, he inspected them if they had some of these ants on them or not and put them into his jacked. Then he jumped back into the bushes, it made no sense to try to rescue the mother. He knew that already, for the big bird was by now too late. Gulping the normally calm cop saw the poor beast look into his direction, with eyes that were only socked holes now. Finding his voice, Leon told the bird not to worry about the two younglings of it, that he would take care of them for her…and that he was sorry that he could only help her this way…. Then he closed his eyes and shot the beast right between the holes that once had been her eyes.
He turned around after some moments, once Leon was sure enough that the beast was no longer alive. Tears streamed down his face, but he did not feel them running.
His retreat from the cruel scene was a silent one.
The two birds in his jacked kept silent all the time.
They never moved or tried to hack after him, just sat there inside the warm and fuzzy new place and tried to take his scent to their memory.
To the little ones, he was now their new mommy.
Leon not aware of their way of thinking about him looked more closely at them while he walked away from the cruel scene behind them.
They had reddish and black feathers. Both looked more like overgrown hawks without the big wings then anything else to Leon and in his opinion both were not the most beautiful birds in the world.
Strangely enough, he found out he did not care at all how they looked to him or to someone else for the matter. To Leon, they both looked just wonderful. Leon only cared about that they staid alive and healthy now!
He had seen bones lying around the nest.
His mind combined out of this and some other signs for it, that these birds had to be flesh eater and predators. It made sense; their mother had been a titanic sized bird! More looking as a dinosaur as a bird and thusly Leon figured that both would grow out as big as their mom had been it. He remembered suddenly that he had seen a bird like that before in the museum. If had he read the cards on that exhibit not fully wrong then these two had normally to be extinct from earth a long time ago! So, why did they still live? The last of their kin had lived in the times of the saber tooth and had died out when those predators had won the fight of these two predatory species for food. The cats had been agiler and the birds had not survived the colder getting climate at those times.
Mindlessly Leon began to coo at the two fussing bird babies inside of his jacked and tried at the same time to bring as much distance between them three and the killer ants as he could manage.
His fine instincts told him that this was better so… he didn't question it or his luck and walked on.
Suddenly the world around him became foggy again and before he knew it, he began to feel light and strange. For some longer moments this effect was all he could feel, that and the two young birds in his jacked. Instinctually he clutched on them to not loose them by accident.
Then as suddenly as one world around him had vanished, a new one appeared right out of the foggy sensation.
After a short check on the two slightly scared birds, he became aware of it that he now was in a like a savanna looking place.
Right in his eyesight laid a seemingly fresh cadaver of a creature Leon never had seen or heard about before. It was huge, and looked surprisingly enough like a huge bear mixed with an opossum. It had a long nose; sharp, huge and curved looking claws and was nearly bigger as the apple tree in his aunt's garden!
What the hell was that thing!
A sudden twin squirming inside of his jacked alerted Leon that the two baby birds must have smelled the blood of the dead creature and so, after some seconds of thinking he went over to it and began to feed the two with parts of its flesh. He had a hard time to rip and cut it out of the huge cadaver for them, with only his ands and a small butterfly knife as his working tools. The knife he always kept with him in his jacket pocket. Now Leon was glad about that, otherwise he would have had a hard time ripping the meat from the beast.
All the time he kept a close eye on his surroundings, it could always be that the hunter of that beast came back to finish its meal.
Leon did not want to meet something that could kill a beast like this! Better safe than sorry, Leon thought and often caught himself stopping and looking intently around when he heard sounds in the distance. His nose also told him strange things since the Forrest, as if he had developed a new sense of smelling abilities. He shook his head and went on to feed his babies; it made no use to think that over at present. Later, Leon decided, later he could do that but not currently. Too dangerous he figured and left it wisely at that.
After a while the two refused to eat more and he figured that they were stuffed enough for now, he watched them burp a few times and getting drowsy. Putting them back inside of his jeans jacked, he closed the zipper and stood. Then he took some of the flesh with him for later use in one of the plastic bags he always carried around with him in case he needed to secure evidence on a crime scene. Less chance Leon figured that an animal would smell the bloody flesh on him and the birdies.
Then he wandered off to find out were he was now and how he could get back to wherever he came from.
It was unnaturally hot in the open savanna and from time to time Leon saw big creatures run in the distance. All of them looked as if they had sprung directly out of a history book to become alive again before his very eyes!
He even saw a mammoth like creature one time! That one had him whistle and stare at it for some minutes. When the cop went around a stony outcrop again, he practically nearly stumbled over the beast hiding behind it. He avoided a swipe of a massive paw with a mad jump just in time.
It looked like a bigger tiger, mixed with a lion of some sort. Big k9´s that seem to have the size of sabers made him jump in the air again…he knew this beast!
Saber-tooth, yes that had it been what D had called it. Was what he supposedly had shot that night and what had the put on display had been. The beast did not move anew and simply starred right through the cop with glassy, feverish eyes. Fist Leon thought the proud creature was almost dead, but then he realized slowly that it was only out of it for now. The beast had a big wound on its left ribcage and a massively swollen belly; in Leon's opinion, it should have been dead by now! Except it was not dead. He saw the big cat heave up its head and heard it whine. Then it tried to gnaw on a paw feebly. The flesh came back in his mind seeing the poor display of hunger and Leon gulped. He figured it must be very hungry, not able to hunt for itself in this injured state.
The cop gave the beast all what he had with him and went then back to the place from before to get even more.
This repeated itself for a few times before the beast was full and his new children that woke up in the meanwhile were also full enough again to stop their hungry chirpings. Leon looked around for something with that he could transport some water to the hurt beast. He found an object that he could use for it inside the nearby bushes. The hard fruit looked like a holed out nut. After he cleaned the leftover innards out, Leon used it to bring water to the beast. It gulped all down what he brought to it until it seemed content for now. Then the Saber-tooth went to sleep.
Leon used the rest water and another full nut later to clean the beast's wounds in its sleep and then bandaged it up with parts of his shirt. He knew the smell of blood would otherwise attract some other meat eaters eventually. After that, the human curled up in a tightly ball and after checking on the beast that it would not eat him and the young in the meanwhile he slept and Leon fell asleep.
A loud noise awoke him not much later from his slumber.
The noise was made from a strange group of animals that had he never thought of that he would see alive! Rubbing his eyes several times, Leon took in unbelieving that he woke up in the middle of a bunch of …baby mammoths? The man groaned deeply in his throat and made a face palm with his hand. What the hell was going on here with him? If this kept up to happen, Leon realized he would end up with the strangest zoo ever in the end! To make his life even more complicated as it was already now, he could see nowhere near to them all a mother or such of the four baby mammoths! That could not be! Where to the hell went their mothers too?
Suddenly the entire scenery began to shift again.
He found himself back lying on the ground of the park near the apartment complex of the Novelist. With a horde of strange animals around him that seem to have chosen to stay with Leon wherever he went. Moreover, from the looks of it, it was in the middle of the night!
All Leon could think of now was one single letter.
The letter had a Chinese looking face in his mind sight, wore Cheongsams all the time and had sold the Novelist the animal and that incense that had brought Leon into this epic chaos
The very letter with a face that always told Leon that he had dreamed that formerly adventure with him up that night! The letter was; D and a pet shop owner that owned him some damned good answers!
Swearing under his breath all the way long, Leon gathered the mammoths up in a bee-line and prayed to what ever god would listen to him now, that no one came across his way back home! To get the Saber-tooth, Leon recognized to be a pregnant female of its kind, (oh joy!) into his apartment was a rather easy task. Compared to the chore to get four little baby mammoths in one piece (that strayed all the time from their way!) up the stairs of his apartment complex and then to his flat and then inside of it! Cussing worse as a drunken sailor, Leon somehow managed the impossible and got all four of them healthy and in one piece where he had wanted them to be. On the way, the big beasts destroyed the foyer, flattened a dresser, ruined his bed and got a lamp from the ceiling.
He just wondered over the fact that his floor had not broken in from the weight on it already!
Not to mention that he did not want to know what had happened if someone had seen the strange menagerie he had in tow when he went from the park to his apartment complex! Huffing Leon took a break and surveyed the destruction whilst shaking his head and trying to avoid one of the mammoths tries to cuddle with him. On his clothes still clung some dusk of the incense powder that´s smell reminded him all the time of his dilemma... Dilemma began with a letter!
The letter D!
The cop searched for his phone in the chaos of his flat with a murderous gleam in his eyes, a certain /friend/ of him had some explaining to do. In addition, this time, Leon would not let D get away with one of his smart mouthed lies!
D awoke from the ringing of his phone in the middle of the night.
He had no clue what person this could be at this time. Shaking it off D took the receiver and said his little text…only get interrupted in the middle of it all from the, all too sweetly sounding voice of the detective that he always loved to tease and who told him in an even more sweetly voice that he would come over to his pet shop with a bomb in his jacked and then would blow up the entire place into tiny little pieces if D would not hurry his ass over to his flat into the next 20 minutes!
D was speechless for a moment at the voice and the way Leon spoke to him. The cop on the other end of the line gave the man no time to regain his wits and told him to bring with him something, with that Leon could feed 4 baby elephants of some sort, a over grown pregnant tiger or what ever she was, and two very hungry birds of the size of a grown hen that ate only meat. If not, Leon would go and feed D to them all as an alternative.
Then Leon had the nerve to hang up on him…
D could only stare bewildered down at the phone for some seconds …what was that? Had the cop a beer too much this night?
Then he remembered the strange noises in the background of the officer's weird call. Blinking he took slowly in that they indeed had sounded like, a pair of birds, a bunch of baby elephants and a tiger growling…?!
Now the shop owner was confused, what in the name of all the gods D could remember in the moment, had Leon there inside of his flat!
In addition, why did the man tell him to bring such a strange list of provisions with him?
Confused and for the first time in his life feeling utterly lost, D just did what the detective had told him and even managed it to arrive at the apartment of Leon Orcrot within the 20 minutes that the cop gave him to come here.
Still he could not explain it why he did so, but something told D that he better did it and that Leon meant what he had said!
The door opened slowly to give way of the detectives face.
"Oh, D how nice of you to come here! And even on time, I really hope for your own good that you have brought with you what I have asked you for or I really will feed you to them instead!"
Without another word, Leon grabbed D by his wrists and dragged him inside his rooms.
"Leo…..! …?"
D never ended the word.
For several moments, the normally so calm and collected pet shop owner just stood in the hallway and stared at the strange sight in front of his mismatched eyes. Mouth open wide and his eyes even wider, the Kami could not believe what he saw! Without further adds, D gracelessly plopped down onto the nearby, half destroyed sofa and tried to get it into his brain that all what he saw was REAL! The amused voice of his detective brought him finally back to reality.
"Hey D, in which of the baskets have you packed the meat into? My babies are hungry."
All that D could do from that second on was to gape at the blond at those unsuspected news.
Shrugging at the unbelieving look that he received from the other man and then it off for now, Leon just went on with his search for the meat all by himself. He figured that he would not get some answers soon from D for now. The other looked too shocked for once to give him a verbal trashing.
After all, the two birdies were really hungry and he did not give his word away without to hold it in! What reminded him; the two babies needed a name.
End of chapter one.
