dreamed i was a marine in the alien movies. and like, this was the story of the unsung hero or something? true to the movie, we were the backup who were designed to just die off, but what had happened in the end was that the real heroes were dead or well enough dead due to their incredibly confounding arrogance and bickering. so there was no sigourney weaver to save us here. we were going to have to destroy the alien queen, but we were just common marines. not heroes. the real hero of the dream, not me, i guess i'll call him bob, anyway, the real hero of the dream was usually operating alone except on occassion when we collided with each other and banded for a while. i was his shadow, i dont think i said anything for the entire dream. thats why it was like a movie. and the hero bob was arguing over the radio with the other two surviving marines, who were rednecks, no, not really rednecks, they were just really cynical guys, and he was arguing with them because they said they were going to follow a hero, and bob finally said, 'our heroes are dead! so if you need a hero, i'm here. i wish i wasnt but i am' and some other stuff i dont remember. so just when the cynical guys came around to helping us, they stupid walked into an alien ambush (we were talking over radio), and died. throughout the dream we kept walking into "anna" who was this alien who looked kind of like queen isabel, and she was invulnerable to attack, and would advance on us slowly until we found some escape route and dived out, and she would scream in outrage at our impudence. anyway, just as the two cynical guys died, anna popped up, and as we were slowly backing away from her, i realized how to kill her, but there wasnt enough room, so we had to make another escape, and kill her next time, and just as that happened, bob blew up a grenade and i almost passed out, and then i woke up. i don't know what happened to me, but i know i escaped, because I was the narrator of the dream as well, which kind of depresses me because does that mean bob died?
