Surprisingly, answers find you.

"Rough night, stranger?" a voice echoed from behind.

Startled, you yelped and turned to face your ambusher. In your panic and confusion, a tall, curvaceous redhead had somehow made her approach inside the Labyrinth!

"Who are you?! How did you get in here?!"

She smiled and rolled her eyes.

"Really? Did you think you were the only person who'd be using the Labyrinth? That out of the billions of people who exist at this point in time, you'd be totally alone and have free reign over all consciousness?"

Whoever she was, she was making a good point.

She outstretched her hand. "I'm Mirabelle. I also figured out how to use the Labyrinth. Granted, I've been doing this for years. You look like you could use some help."

Tentatively, you nodded, unsure if you could trust this stranger. You took her hand and shook, introducing yourself.

"So, I'm guessing you just got out of a dream that really fucked you up, am I right?"

Again, you nodded.

"My sister was dreaming that I was fucking her." you said, before blushing and clasping your mouth shut.

Mirabelle laughed. "You can only tell the truth in here. Kinda hard to lie through your mind. But don't worry, dude. I've seen my share of weird shit in dream spaces. No judgement here."

You relaxed a bit. Already, you were learning more about the Labyrinth and its functions.

"Okay, what else should I know?" you asked. "Why are my sister's dreams like that in the first place?"

"It's kind of tricky. Normally, dreams are manufactured by the **** mind. We can only use the Labyrinth and enter or reshape dreams because we've effectively blurred the line between conscious and ****. Your sister's subconscious must have strong, sexual urges, particularly towards you."

"But how come I couldn't shut it down? I thought I had the power to manipulate dreams?"

"Oh, you do. 100 percent. The question is, did you really want to change that dream?"

"What?"

"Did. You. Like. That. Dream?"

The more you thought about it, the less illogical it seemed. Beyond the shock of the scenario existing, nothing about Brooke's dream really disgusted or scarred you. When you dreamt of plowing her, it felt like heaven.

"Now you're getting it." Mirabelle said smugly. "Deep down, you know you really liked being a dream-pervert. Doing what we do opens us to the minds of everyone, including ourselves. You've always wanted to fuck your sister, even if you or society told you it was wrong. Without those inhibitions imposed by reality, you're free to do whatever you want with her in here."

So there it was: turns out you were just a majorly horny pervert. And now that you'd accepted it, you honestly felt relieved.

"Anything else you wanna know?" Mirabelle asked.

Much of the night you spent with Mirabelle, eager to learn the ropes to your new powers. Apparently, she'd entered the Labyrinth 5 years before you, and met others like yourselves. While you entered some dreams, frolicking and dicking around, she clued you in on some important details:

-All ordinary dreams are tied to the subconscious of their owner.

-Each sentient, conscious mind has a door or gateway in the Labyrinth. It can only be opened when the person in question is asleep. Their door location in the Labyrinth is relative to your real world locations, but you can find specific doors faster and more easily if you focus on them. This is why your mom and sister's doors have always been nearby.

-Changes to a person's mind and/or body can have very real effects on their corporeal being. Like a case of mind over matter. The physiological or psychological change can be reinforced/enhanced over the course of numerous dreams.

-Time moves differently in dreams, and it varies in a case by case basis. You can stretch five minutes into a day in one dream, or spend the whole night talking to someone for a half an hour in another.

-Be careful when entering a lucid dream. The dreamer has as much power as you there and can fight back.

With your new advice, you and Mirabelle parted, leaving you with enough time to squeeze in one more dream visit. You hoped to see her again sometime, but for now you'd finish the night with someone else.
