Dream: In which I battle with a goldfish

It was a large fish. There were three fish tanks, and there was a huge goldfish as big as Baal, only orange. He was intent on jumping out and getting into another tank. He jumped up, caught the edge of the tank with a pectoral fin, and maneuvered itself up to the top of the tank to where it could jump into another tank. It tried, but I kept catching him and putting him back in the water—which was pretty low, by the way, this fish was jumping. The other tank had a small mud building sort of thing that had a lot of tiny cats in it, cats that were maybe a centimeter in length. There was a dirt section and a water section, and the water section had goldfish in it of different colors, white and pinkish sorts, maybe a few shibunkens (sp?). I knew that this fish was trying to get into the tank to eat the little cats. I kept catching him in my hands and putting him back, and I finally put him in with the neons, red and black tetras and zebra fish because that tank had a lid on it. He was smirking the whole time, I just knew it.

I went into another room where my cousins were looking through things, and there were little amulet locket things with water and a little living fish in it. I went oh my god, they’re still alive! And immediately broke the lockets to let the fish out into a tank. It was a very small yellow-brown fish that looked not quite skeletal but not very fleshy.

Then the ninja was giving me and this other lady necklaces. He called them diamonds, and the pendant looked like a crystal pendulum for dowsing that he gave the other lady, and mine was like a superfine wire mesh that was filled with dragon’s blood resin. He said something about how he knew how much I like the scent of dragon’s blood.
