I had a dream I was in a minivan with a family (who was nothing like my family). My elder brother was in a wheelchair. While we were getting him out so we could go shopping some men killed everyone but me. They then whisked me away to their compound and instructed me to strip. I saw other girls there too but before I was able to speak with them I was given a guard named Troy, whose job was to stay with me in my room and make sure I didn't escape. He was also naked and was so skinny he looked like a skeleton.
In order to look like a good guard he made a few faked punches and kicks at me, which I instinctively shrunk away from. Satisfied he had shown everyone else he was a tough, hard-working guard I was led to my room.
Cold, I stayed in the bed while we made small chit-chat with each other. While we were chatting Grant and some others from the hall came to visit me, acting as if I were in the hospital. Covering my nakedness with a thin sheet I told them I was very contagious and couldn't see anyone yet. They left after Troy ushered them out and shut the door.
Then he laid under my bed and went to sleep. I left my cot and quietly ran to the large window just in time to see Grant and the others leaving.
"Grant!" I whispered.
"Grant!" I whispered as loudly as I could.
"GRANT!" I screamed, finally getting his attention. However, I was worried I may have woken up Troy I then said, "Come back in ten minutes!" and ran back to my room.
Troy was still asleep. And I was eager to get out as soon as possible. So, doing the most rational thing possible, I jumped from my window, climbed a security fence, and ran as fast as I could to get away from there.
I ran to Grant who, somehow knowing exactly what was going on, ushered me into Amanda's car and had me hide under a blanket in the backseat. He then sent Amanda off driving as far away as possible in hopes that we would be gone long before anyone noticed.
But, of course, they noticed and immediately people were sent to find me and bring me back.
The dream ended up culminating into a race-against-time with David and a few others helping me to escape while David's father and other adult men chased after me. At the very end of the dream David and I were standing at the edge of the ocean. A small boat made of pine was floating a short ways in the water waiting to take us to a large pirate ship further out at sea.
"Katrina, hurry, get in the boat!" David yelled at me.
"Hold on, I'm trying to remember how to save! I can't remember where to go! GOD I ALWAYS HAVE THIS PROBLEM!"
I then started pressing keyboard buttons on my stomach in search of the one that would let me save. Finally, after pressing S (of course), the save screen comes up. But when I try to save I see that I don't have an account because I forgot to log in and I would need to pay $15 to make another one.
"I'm not paying $15 for another account!" so I exited out of the save screen.
And the game.
The ocean, the pirate ship, all the colorful people helping us... it was all gone and all that was left was David and me in his father's house. Angry that I had made everyone work so hard to get so close to the end of the game and then I just let it all end David stormed upstairs.
