Step father masquerading as a bear tries to frame stepson for murder; D.C. showdown

[astral_lagoon]

I had a dream that I was wandering around in a field on a hill along the edge of some woods at night near my grandparents’ old farm. I saw another man walking around, and a bear came out of the woods behind him. The bear ripped off its costume and revealed itself to be some sinister looking monster with sort of a flat looking head. The monster bit the man’s head off. I think the monster may have been another costume, because the monster had a human stepson named Chris that he was trying to frame for his slayings. I (in third person present form) saw Chris in a twin bed asleep, and Claire from Heroes was asleep in another twin bed next to Chris’s bed. I figured out that Chris and Claire were dating, and that Chris’s step dad didn’t like it, so he wanted to kill Claire and frame Chris for it. Back outside at night where I was in first person present, Claire was walking along beside the woods near where in a in-ground hot tub was. Chris’s step dad attacked her. I believe Chris was also there, along with several other people that I can’t remember specifically (some were allies of Chris’s step dad, and others were my allies). Some of the other people managed to rescue Claire, but there was this one villain that had the power to turn himself into water that I couldn’t catch. I kept chasing him around, but he turned into water and went into the hot tub. At this point I realized I had Iceman from X-Men’s power, so I tried to touch the surface of the hot tub to freeze the water while the guy was still in liquid form. I wouldn’t work, so I tried three or four more times. The water around the sides of the hot tub had frozen, and some girl who looked like Gi from Captain Planet told me something to the extent that my efforts were sufficient. Some guy (might have been Chris) came along and got in the hot tub. He said the water was still hot except for right next to the sheets of ice on the sides of the hot tub, and that I should get in and feel it. I got in, and it felt pretty strange.

I was on some sort of chase or treasure hunt that ended up at some kind of monument in Washington, D.C. I wasn’t myself; I think I may have been Nicholas Cage. I was wearing a Punisher shirt, and my (fictional) dad came out of the bushes and told me to stop before I got into trouble. I don’t remember what happened after that, but I think the villain came along and shot my dad.
