Hi everyone, this dream might be a bit confusing, but hopefully still makes enough sense (as much as a dream can, lol)
*Old Dream - Early 2015
***
I was chosen to be part of a group that was fighting the government by ape-like beings that had the ability to sense emotions and thoughts, eg. fear and hostility.
Prior to being chosen, the ape-like being was rampaging the store I was in and scaring people, sometimes pushing/grabbing/throwing them. It ran my way but gently pushed me aside to get to other people, and that's when I had a feeling there was more to it. I had many questions in my head, like: Why such aggression? What did it want? What is it trying to do?
It came into the store twice in total. After the first rampage it left, then maybe a couple hours (dream time) later, it came back but people were already hiding because they saw the ape-like being heading back to the store. Everyone hid in the storage room and I just told everyone to stop thinking negative thoughts and stop being afraid since it worked for me.
I went out to face the ape-like being, and thought it was scary, though I tried to hold only positive/neutral thoughts. It raised its arms towards me and wrapped them around me and sat down on a nearby chair with me sitting on its knees; sort of like I was a child. I was confused, but since it wasn't hurting people, I was happy to go along with it. I also took that chance to ask it questions like where it came from, and how it knows how to talk because it was talking to me earlier.
It then started to tell me where it came from; I don't really remember... It was either created by the government or came from outer space and was captured by the government and used as a weapon, but then it was set free by a group of people who opposed the government's use of the creature, and since then it has been going around looking for others who might be able to help their cause because there are more ape-like beings still captive at the government's headquarters.
I agreed to help. And the next thing I knew I was transported to a place where people were shooting guns and things at me, and lucky for me I was equipped to fight them also, lol. (the magic of dreams!). At first it was a bit hectic since everyone from my group was fighting and things were happening everywhere. Then I split up with my team to find other enemies. Here are the encounters I remember:
- One guy was fighting with a sword so I also used one. Don't remember too much except there was a long stare down at the beginning and then it was over, and I was still alive, yay!
- Two guys shooting at me, one on the ground, one on a roof top, I killed the guy up top first, and shot the guy on the bottom twice but he wasn't dead yet and I ran out of bullets, luckily my team mates helped me out there.
- Guy who looked like a pair of socks threw bombs at me. I kept trying to throw them back at him, but they weren't very strong :/ I then noticed some lasers and decided to back him into them. It worked! -- But it didn't :/. He just walked right out and said it didn't kill him because he was carrying a water bottle filled with a tar-like substance. I took the bottle from him and splashed him with it, and he melted, lol. My (dream) logic is the lasers heated the tar even though the bottle was cool to the touch.
Somehow I could feel that was the final guy, or at least the final major baddie, it was like fighting a bunch of mini bosses, lol. Then I woke up
***
I remember after waking up I was wondering whether it was really just a dream, or was it another universe. I mean, a lot of dreams feel like other universes, but this one in particular felt so whole, like that there was way more going on beyond the walls of my dream. And even after all these years, the environment still feels tangible and real.
