I was somewhere near New York City on a mission trip teaching a group of high school-aged kids. There were other teachers there, mostly friends from my high school - Katelyn, Jered, Lyn, Claire were there. Then I was in a river with Mom and several other adults. It was for a funeral for a young kid. The burial casket floated down the river with a bunch of green ivy leaves around it. It floated past, and I swam until it went out of sight. Someone else told me the kid died of cancer (women cancer). There was another girl who was sick of the smae thing. I was upset, so I went back to the school in the woods.
I had an idea that if would found a cure for the other girl. I was talking to Maria LaGuerta, Debra Morgan, and Quinn (all from Dexter). We all wanted to help. Someone else in charge didn't want us to leave. So LaGuerta, Quinn, Brianna & Alex (from my high school), and myself decided to leave quickly in a helicopter. LaGuerta had to stay behind, but the 3 of us girls got in. Quinn kept flying it a bit so we couldn't get in, but eventually he stopped so we could. It was so small that we had to sit on the floor in it's box shape with big windows.
We started flying. I was sitting next to Quinn, and I was secretly crushing on him. We flew through NYC over a river. I was excited to be in NYC, because I had already been there and I could recognize some of the sights. I saw a bridge with cars on it and a set of stairs that I recognized and was very excited. Everyone else was teasing me.
Later it became night and we flew out over the ocean. It was very shallow and still. We flew very low and I could see black tubing on the ocean floor - long and tangled. Quinn said they were giant worms. We started playing some games - I-Spy and suchlike. They started playing a game like the triangle game, but I figured it out on the second round and was a little annoyed. Quinn started flirting with me, joking. We were flying low and slow. Then for some reason Brianna and Alex to jump into the ocean to go for a swim. I was freaking out, but the others though it was funny. Quinn kept circling around them, until he too jumped in, leaving me alone.
I was freaking, but I grabbed the joystick and figured out how to fly the box-helicopter well enough. Soon I started going too high, but I figured how to lower it, but then I went too low. At the last second, I pulled up, skimming the water. Quinn jumped to help me, but eventually I jumped out to swim myself. The water was warm and clear. I shut my eyes and sank to the bottom. All of a sudden, I remember the worms and almost panicked. I could hear everyone calling me to be careful. But I reached down and only grabbed sand. I felt relieved.
Then I woke up.
