			This story was really inspired by an episode of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer." The 4th season finale, "Restless," occurs almost entirely in dreams and does a really nice job of playing with dream logic while still telling a story. Most of the time when you see a dream represented in a movie or TV show, it is far too logical and linear. Dreams just don't work that way. At least mine don't. After watching "Restless" several times (it's a fantastic episode of a fantastic series. I would not recommend watching it without knowledge of the show, though. It will not make much sense at all.), I decided I wanted to try my hand at a dream story.


			Several of the dream bits in the story come from my own dreams. I'm not sure if that's cheating or not. I tried to make them fit Beck, though. For some reason, I have had a few dreams where I see giant asteroids slamming down on the houses around me. The section about Hodges and Beck trying to get on a transport to Risa that they can't seem to reach is also from my dreams. Mine was in an airport, and I was trying to get on a flight to London. I think every adult has had the "I'm back in school and I didn't do my homework/study for the test/write the paper" dream.


			The section where a tuxedoed Craig Porter shows up as a tour guide is also straight out of my dreams, including the giant serpent part. Only in my dream, my guide was Alex Trebek.


			At the time I wrote this, I had no idea that it would lead into anything more. I later had the idea for the arc of stories that really follows up on just what was trying to get into Beck's mind and why.

	==Summary==		==Summary==
			In Captain [[Lisa Beck]]'s dreams one night, she is continually urged to pass through a red door. Another voice in her head tells her not to. Finally, she realizes that she is dreaming and takes control, expelling whatever force was trying to get her to go through the red door. The following morning she goes to Ops, where Lieutenant Commander [[Craig Porter]] tells her that he detected a low-level energy field overnight that may have been a life form, but it's gone now. Beck says not to worry about it. It's gone because she wouldn't open the door.
