Lucid Dreaming | Lucid but not in control?

I've recently become lucid (in-dream) about 5 times after my successful 3 LD's. But for the last few of these recent ones, I become lucid, and then everything turns black, and I either wake up or nothing happens. If i can remember I will do the "do nothing" thing and imagine my surroundings and their textures/feel. it's hard to do anything like that though if as soon as I become lucid everything fades to black, and i'm often too scared to change my surrounding because I usually become lucid after nightmares, in which i am being chased but it's hard imagining safety while having monsters chase you.



Have any of you experienced this black void then waking up? Right after becoming aware?



I'm just confused on what to do really, once lucid.
