nightmare.
First one in a long time...woke up right in the end because of my lovely cell phone, haha...
I just watched Sweeney Todd a few days ago, so I think this is why this one is so bloody and grotesque.
I start out as a boy, in his early teens and kind of scruffy, but I find that my five closest female friends have all gone missing recently and that their parents are significantly richer. So I read the news...and find that there are my five girl friends for sale at some government location, except all their ages are listed as 3 or 5, for some reason.
Then my point of view switches to that of one of the girls. I think I'm myself here, and of the other four I only distinctly remember three. One resembled Naomi, a very sexy and feisty little 14 year old Hongkong girl I tutored once, and the other resembled Jia Yin. I think one more girl resembled Allie [<3 you, but to warn you this dream is WEIRD].
Anyway, we were running around rampant inside a military facility outside of the capital, and we were actually on very friendly terms with the army soldier/officer type people who were keeping us there. They were apparently much nicer than we had initially believed. We were done with our "treatment" for the day, and we were really bored and wanted to go out, so we told the head, the General we'll call him now.
He laughed and reminded us for the umpteenth time not to access certain areas on this map of the building he had in front of him, and then we went outside to a lawn, where we sat down and started chatting.
At this point, we are reunited with our scruffy guy friend that looks like a typical shounen manga hero [and illogically we were not overjoyed or shocked that he could get past military security]. We start chatting about what happened to us and I, as the dreamer, find out that we all have been put in this machine that somehow shrinks us to a child-like form. The thing is, according to Jia Yin, we retain our near-adult body shape. None of us remember the process or being awake as a "child," but Jia Yin has apparently seen a photo of herself.
At this point we start wondering what IS this process after all. One of the girls, Allie I think, has become extremely thin, and I say "What happened to you? How did you lose so much weight so quickly?"
At this point, one more of the girls just keels over and starts spitting blood, and we notice that on Naomi's face, small cuts are appearing all over her skin. We all get really freaked out at this point and we sneak to one of the forbidden areas, namely the machine that we are put in, whcih is getting modified right now. And we notice that inside, they are installing rows upon rows of spikes and gears with sharp teeth, and that this is apparently an improvement on the old machine. I get a visual of what it might do to us, slicing away the skin neatly, then removing layers of muscle and fat while we're unconcious. Then wrapping us back up with the skin.
So we are SCARED, because we realize that we are shrunk literally by removing flesh and bone and somehow brought back to normal shape through acceleterated healing. The scruffy boy tells us, "I need to get you out of here." Somehow along the way, the rest of the soldiers that worked for the General had left into the forest, probably because they didn't wnat to continue their sordid task.
At this point, we try to leave, but the General finds out. He calls his most loyal servant, who greatly resembles Toby [the singing servant boy] from Sweeney Todd, and he has some ridiculous name like Marcus Jacob. He goes after us, but scruffy boy picks up a random baseball bat and they start having a shounen style fight [i'm back in the boy's pov now]. After I, as a boy, smash the bat into Toby's face a few times just to make sure he's out, I decide to go after the general.
Either that or I escape, because I wake up at that point.
Very illogical dream, but I think it's good material for a horror story.
