Strange and Vivid Nightmares
Last night i had the worst nightmare i've ever had. It's been about 10 years since my last one and for whatever reason it effected me heavily.
So here's my tale. Before I start though, let me give you the build up. I went to bed last night around 12, and I've become dependent on my iPad to sleep. I went to bed watching Achievement Hunter's Halo 4 Infinity Slayer Let's Play. About half way into the video I fell into the nightmare. I woke up to find my brother pulling me out of bed and pushing me through the door. I wondered what he was doing but it just seemed natural, so I let him. My family got into our car and we drove as we saw smoke drifting through the sky. I was incredibly confused and so I turned on the radio. It cackled "This just in, the whole state of California is now under quarantine and is infected. The massive outbreak of an unknown disease has caused humans to become 'zombies'." I started to freak out. What was happening? Just the other day I had been watching BLOPS 2 zombie videos. How could this be real? I blacked out. I woke up later in a hospital. But it wasn't a normal hospital. I remember that this hospital was a cylinder. A perfect cylinder. I woke up to see doctors operating on my father who had apparently been bit. Everything was happening so fast. The world began to spin. I blacked out. I woke up in an Italian restaurant. In front of me was my favorite meatball sub. Apparently we were on the outskirts of California, the only place in the world infected. I looked around and cried as I saw none of my family around me. I suddenly stopped as soon as I saw Gavin, Geoff, Ray, and Burnie from Rooster Teeth at my table. What was going on? I'm in California, not Los Angeles. I knew it was a dream. I tried to wake up. I slapped myself. Nothing worked. I eventually blacked out. I was being dragged by my brother into my pool house. Apparently we had been advised to stay in our houses as the military was going to come by and kill all people outside. My brother put a blanket over me so that if zombies came into our backyard, they wouldn't be able to see me. He proceeded to crawl under another blanket. I suddenly watched as Gavin, Geoff, and Burnie strolled into my pool house. What were they doing? (Now that I think back on the dream I recognize what they were saying as sound clips from the 30 minute long video I was watching.) I was completely confused, but i ushered them under our spare blankets. None of my other family was home. I looked up to see 2 people who looked to be bandits being chased by zombies. They ran to the door to our pool house but they couldn't open it. It was too late for them. Zombies gorged upon their flesh. I stifled my tears as I recognized them as neighbors. The 3 others were continuing to laugh. The zombies didn't notice them. I looked up to see the sun and moon spinning as approximately 3 days went by. 3 days in less than 2 minutes. I knew it was a dream. I finally willed myself to wake up. I woke up sweating and startled. I looked around to make sure no zombies were there. The video that had been playing had stopped 8 hours before. None of it made sense. I walked out of my room to take a shower, look past every corner to make sure there was nothing there. This whole day, I've been preparing myself for zombies. This day was strange.
No, there is no tl;dr.
This is completely factual dream. Nothing here was fabricated. I still can't figure out though, why for the last few moments of my dream, I could hear the video playing.
