The whole gang was leaving lunch at the campus center. A thin, blonde, older girl was standing on the porch handing out flyers and trying to get people's help for something. I was somehow aware that her name was Emily. We tried to walk by but she jumped out in front of us. I don't remember what was said.
Fast forward. It's nighttime, it's pitch black, I'm at a dock. I'm dressed in black and accompanied by two other people I don't know, also in black. I have two axes, but they don't really look like axes. There's a very large boat at the dock. It's my job to kill two sentries on the boat so my party and various other parties stationed around the dock may board and so that we can kill Hitler, who is apparently on the boat.
It's a tall boat, towering above the dock, so I climb up a cargo-loading crane and walk across it to drop down on the boat. One sentry is standing against the railing of the boat right under where the crane ends, his back turned to the crane. I drop down and hit him with an axe. There's no blood; it's kind of like melee in a shooter game, where you just get close enough and touch them and they're dead. I walk down the deck of the boat a little and jump up to another crane and wait. The second sentry appears and walks toward me. Somehow I fuck up and he sees me. The plan is ruined.
Suddenly there is fighting everywhere, and everybody has guns but me. Running across the bow of the ship, I look up and see Hitler at the helm. I'm like, "dang, I wish I hadn't fucked up." People are fighting around Hitler and some gunshots break windows around him, but he is unscathed.
Fast forward a little. I'm caught, and sitting against the rail of the boat with a bunch of other prisoners. We're not really restrained in any way but we know we screwed up and lost. There's still fighting noise around the boat but it's dying down. I ask the guy next to me what's happening and he's like "they're deciding which warehouse (or maybe it was parking lot) to bring us to.
A bunch of women are escorted by and off the boat via a ramp. I am aware that Jocelyn is among them but I don't see her and I don't know where they're being taken or why they were on the boat.
Emily appears in front of the prisoners. I am aware that she was the one who recruited us into doing this, but now it seems that she is on the other side. I feel set up. She tosses everyone a red wristwatch and starts teaching us how to put them on but I already have one on.
I don't really remember much of her speech, but I do remember it not making much sense. She was disappointed in us; she was like, "did nobody listen to what I told you?" I have a bit of a dream flashback to when she was telling us outside the campus center. She told us about these demon horse things, I think she called them unicorns, but they weren't really. They were just horses but with this helmet for a head:

She told us how people don't really recognize their own voices or their own screams, but when a 'unicorn' charges you, it will scream in YOUR voice, and you WILL recognize it, and it's terrifying because you think you're the one screaming and you think you're dying and it incapacitates you and then the thing kills you.
And so then I am like, "oh yeah, that's why we lost, those unicorns were all over the goddamn boat."
[At this point, my alarm goes off, and I accordingly go downstairs half-asleep to let my dog out and make her breakfast, then head right back upstairs and fall back into bed. I have another dream, which, in the dream, I am aware is a direct sequel to the previous one, even though it doesn't really bear any connection within the dream]
At the start of this dream, it's me, Carlo, Brad, and my friend Chris from home. I'm aware that we escaped from our captivity on the ship somehow, but now we're stranded god knows how many miles from where we're supposed to be. It's a bright sunny day and we're basically in a coastal paradise cave city thing. Houses are built into a giant sandy-rock cliff face, kinda like this

and the cliff is facing pristine, blue, classic-tropical-paradise water. We are walking along passages in the cliff trying to get through the city but it's very confusing. We walk by one cave house that has a car, and there is no conceivable way the car could have gotten there. We are much confused. We accidentally walk through somebody's basement but get to the other side, and I assure Brad that, "it's okay, I've done that several times by accident."
We're not really on the cliff face anymore, we're heading away but houses are still on a slope and now a lot of them have electric garage doors. I am VERY upset by a lot of them because the doors have a weird piece that juts out and goes beyond where the door should end and the others tell me to calm down.
We pass through another cave-city thing, but now it's dusty instead of sandy, like it's a desert. There is a giant snake statue with fangs bared jutting out of a wall. Carlo says something about it. A small conversation which I don't remember occurs.
We make it to a grassy area and pass a fast-food restaurant in the middle of nowhere. Don't know what restaurant it was. We are aware that we are 4 miles from where we're supposed to be. We approach a branch in the path and take the branch that leads towards some woods. There are 2 older guys hanging out in front of the woods. I make a joke as we approach them, (not about them, a random joke that I remembered immediately when I woke up but not anymore). Our laughter reaaaaally seems to piss them off. As we try to pass, one asks, "can I ask you a question?" we try to ignore them but one grabs Brad and the other grabs me in a headlock.
He asks, kinda snarling, "do you have a boyfriend?" [it wasn't sexual in the dream; it's not like they were trying to rape us or whatever, it was mostly just a bizarre question.] I yell "take them and run" to Chris, who takes Jocelyn and a few other unnamed girls (who are apparently now with us...) and runs into the woods. Carlo is apparently not in the dream anymore.
Somehow I'm out of my headlock and I run after them, losing sight of Brad and the other guy, and am chased by the guy who grabbed me. Eventually he catches up and starts trying to punch me but I catch his punches and he starts like, sobbing in anger and is just like "i hate you so much, we hate everything you stand for."
I catch another punch, then punch him in the stomach. He buckles, and I grab his shoulders and knee him in the nads. He falls over and I jump on his stomach and prooooobably break a bunch of his ribs. At this point I am a little torn over running after Chris because we're so close to home, or trying to go back and find Brad. I run back for Brad.
[I wake up]
The End?

Oh my god, those horse things would be crazy and terrifying with that helmet.
ReplyDeleteYour dreams are quite epic and I am also sorry that I seem to have replaced Carlo.
