Dream on

Apr 19, 2004 15:24

So last night was a pretty Shitty night. My stomach isn't being too happy - and I feel bad for bringing others down. But bad night's lead to bad sleeps and bad sleeps lead to bad dreams....



So I'm buying make up at the mall - and then check my watch to realize I need to meet someone - who I'm not entirely sure. I just know I'm late. I guess I'm in a Galleria-esque type of mall - seeing as I have to walk down a long white hallway to another section to meet my friend. Friends and families laugh around me and I smile, my feet clicking on the pristine white floor. But suddenly I heard some heavier ones. I turn around to see four men dressed in black with guns (Kill Bill anyone?) And they start shooting everyone. Everyone starts screaming and runs around in a panic. A man infront of me is shot and falls backwards on to me - throwing me on to the ground. I hit my head hard and am in a slight daze - staring blankly ahead. I watched them pour white paint on all the people who were shot - all the people they killed. I couldnt move, my head hurt - and I suddenly found myself covered in white paint myself. I get it. I stay as still as I can and wait for the men to leave.

The hallway is silent - and I slowly wiggle my way out from the man, and start walking quietly int he direction I was headed - digging in my purse for a phone. I looked to my left and saw a little boy - covered in white paint - and I felt terrible. I couldn't believe or understand why these people could get killed. But suddenly, the boy moved, he propped himself up on his elbows and started to move. He turned and started to talk to his mom, who was also suddenly up. I looked around and everyone was getting up, dragging themselves on their elbows. I started to walk faster - I could tell everyone noticed me - I was the only one standing. Suddenly their elbows started to bleed, and suddenly the top parts of their arms..were just gone. They didn't seem to notice - or feeling anything. But their voices stop being so cheery - and started to be alot more fucking scary. I felt their eyes burning into my backs. Their crawls, mixed with blood, started to sound like more of a slither. I broke into a run. And they sped up too. I ran and ran down the white halls until suddenly I ran into a crowd of shoppers - screaming. Muzak played softly and nobody had a clue of what was to come. I turned to see Luis sitting by a fountain, tapping his foot. I ran over to him.
He smiled and asked what took me so long. Why did he not ask me about the paint?
I told him we needed to leave the mall now. That I didn't want him to die. That I didn't want to die. That we had to get away. But he told me to not be silly and that we had to meet our friends. I argued with him - screaming and kicking - trying to pull away. But then I ended up sitting in the foodcourt. A feeling of panic growing in my chest as he casually chatted with my friends. I looked towards the white hallway. Nothing seemed to be coming. Everything seemed fine. Was I crazy? Did I just imagine it all? I guess I was watching too many movies. I turned to join in the conversation finally.
But then I got that feeling in the pit of my stomach - that tingly feeling that eventually rose to the back of my neck. And I knew we had to leave. I shot up from my seat and grabbed Luis' forearm and told him that we had to leave. He stared at me - glancing at his and my friends in embarassment. I told him that I couldn't let us die here. That we had to leave - by this time hot frustrated tears were streaming down my cheeks. Finally he seemed a little worried and agreed to go. I grabbed his hand and we started to run.
He yelled at me to look and I turned to suddenly see people on the opposite side of the mall running and screaming. and I see the people slithering down the hallways at a frightening speed. I pull him and we start to run. They're gainging on us and I tell Luis to grab something. I run towards a hardware store display and grab a huge orange wrench.
Luis grabs...a hairdryer. Way to go Luis.
But then Luis TOTALLY bitchslaps a zombie with the dryer. so nevermind. But I'm totally owning with the wrench as we beat our way to a department store where metal walls are slowly lowering and a security guard is motioning at us. We both slide in. The wall catching on my jeans - but Luis pulls me out onto the other side. We run with the people - the walls keep closing and closing - until we're in hidden pit - but it's outside. I feel very, very unsafre. The pit's about twenty feet high, and is surrounded by forest.
All the people begin to yell at the guard for bringing us here. I urge them to all be quiet. But suddenly I hear a sound in the forest.
'What's that?' I whisper. We all look around and I suddenly feel something hit my head - and it all goes black.

I wake up feeling warmth pressed against my back. Ajay? I assume. I'm glad I've woken up. But suddenly Ajay is staring down at me. I look at the hand slung over me and see it belongs to a white guys. I gasp and turn around to see another man cuddling me.
I turn to look at Ajay. He shrugs.
"He looked like he needed a place to sleep."
I pull away from the strange man and look around the train. The windows are covered with brown paper and dark amber lights are overhead.
"How did I get here?" I ask Ajay. He stares at me.
"You don't know?"
"No...I was at the mall..I blacked out..I don't know how I got here...where are we going?"
I realize I'm the only one whos talking, suddenly everyone on the train has turned to stare at me, and suddenly I'm feeling a little scared. Ajay's eyes darken.
"You need to get off the train."
I stare at him in confusion - I start to ask if I can get off at the next stop. Some of the people who were staring at me are now standing up - and look pretty angry.
"Get off the train." Suddenly he slides open a door and I'm looking at the landscape speeding by.
"I-"
Ajay pushes me violently and I'm rolling down a grassy hill. I grunt and look up and see the train slowly vanish.
Behind me I see a college campus in ruins. Roofs are missing, holes are in the walls, smoke rises from a few of the buildings. I see a couple people wandering around, dressed in dirty clothes and with sad smiles on thier faces. They seem to be having a party - trying to enjoy themselves despite the circumstances. They try to act like they've accepted death - but you can tell they're all afraid.
It's starts to rain...and there's nothing to hide under.

and lets not even get STARTED about the killer bugs dream ;-;

Woo! Japanese Translations WOOOOOO!
