Really it started off in a shower, I heard suspicious noises in a tunnel, I find a cell phone, I'm knocked out, wake up in a train station as another person (a woman nonetheless), I get a call on the cell phone, and I wake up...

I later had another dream where I ran into the woman I had turned into, ended up turning into someone else, and yet again someone else.  Truly freaky.

The other story is derived from this, trying to form a storyline.  And I think instead of Russia I will use Belarus as the setting, as Russia is fairly cliche.
