   A Strange and Elaborate Dream
This dream really stuck with me, so I thought I'd write it down for you guys. I kind of realize what was going on upon thinking about it now, just like you figure out a movie after you're done watching it.

-----------------------------------

It's starts off in the streets of my mom's hometown in Germany. My mom and I and maybe my aunt are shopping in the big shopping district downtown. I am very happy and content of where I am. Then for no apparent reason I start running. I run until the buildings, people, and cars around me are a blur. It blurs into a white light and I'm suddenly somewhere else.

I realised later it was supposed to be the spirit world. I am a spirit there, but I am not in my body. I look like a 14 year old boy in a white toga. I am running away from a bunch of other spirits in togas. One of them is huge with a long beard. The rest are as small as me. We are either playing tag or they are bullying me. The ground is covered with brown soil, but no plants and the sky is blue with no sun or clouds. The only thing you see for miles are random, plain buildings. I run into one of the buildings to hide from them and accidentally run into an iron cage. I think I am trapped and freak out. The other spirits laugh and run away. But after awhile I realize I'm not trapped and walk out of the cage and back outside.

My boss is waiting for me. The overseer of the spirit guides. Thinking back now I think he was pretty hot. It's time for my next mission I guess. As the boy in the toga I'm terrified of him. He is really strict. I realize later he just cared about me and wanted me to succeed. He points at smaller house-shaped buildings I could run into. They represent the lives I could enter into in the mortal world. "Which one do you go into?" he asks. I want to make him either proud or not angry at me. "The one most in need." I say. And I can tell which one is most in need because it is flashing like in a video game. My boss smiles in approval. I bravely run forward into the building without a second thought.

I fall through the sunny, cloud filled sky of the mortal world in the summer. I am floating into the town where I live now in Iowa. I am still thinking like the toga boy, but I am back in my regular body. I see my mom's friend driving along cluelessly in her car over an unfinished bridge and off the edge. While still floating I put her car safely back on the road. She drives on having no idea how much danger she just was in. When my feet finally touch the ground, I'm infront of my house next to my mom. My mentality changes back to KawaiiMelody and I forget everything about Toga boy, but I do remember something about my mom's friend and the car and that eventually fades as well. Supposedly my mom and I just came back from our trip, but we are going back soon. We had to come back to check on things for some reason.

I walk towards my deck and see a cockatiel waddling around. It's not one of the three cockatiels I own but I pick it up and take it inside. When we are inside we find a random extra cage for it. "Who is taking care of the cockatiels when we are gone, anyway?" I ask. "TS" my mom says.

So I pick up the phone and call her. "Why are you calling me this late? It's 1:09." she asks, confused. "What are you talking about?" I look outside and it's bright day light. It appears to me to be about 3 in the afternoon. I figured out later that either TS was confused, or more likely I was still out of it and was percieving what I wanted to see. At that point in the dream I thought that she was confused. So I asked her about the 'tiels and she said she came by every morning to feed them. I scolded her about not changing their water everyday and that we were going back to Germany for a little longer so she would have to keep feeding them.

The next day, or my perception of the next morning, TS came over. I told her we would need more cockatiel seeds because we took in another 'tiel. She was confused and didn't know where store was. "Okay," I said. "Let's go now." I asked my mom if I could go for a drive with TS. My mom said,"Yes but don't leave town."

I drove my red car and we went to the petstore. For some reason the cockatiel food was in bags instead of them having to pour it for you. I bought a big bag and we left.

For some reason the scene flashed to much later in the day. TS wasn't with me anymore and for some reason I was walking on foot around my side of town (I usually drive everywhere.) I was walking in the street (I never do that either) next to my old elementary school when I saw a white truck speeding towards me. I freak out and roll out of the way on to the grass by a bike rack just in time. But the truck turns and starts to drive on the side walk. Now I know the man in the truck is after me. He stops the truck right infront of me and jumps out of the truck leaving the door wide open. (The part about the white truck driving at me I had dreamt a few times before up to the point where the truck turns around as a recurring dream. Strange.)

When the man jumps out of the truck he turns into the huge toga-wearing spirit with the beard from earlier in the dream that was leading the pack that chased me. I just thought it was a monster. I didn't remember him because I had lost all of my memories from the spirit world. "I'm gonna kill you!" He screamed. He was mad. He must of held a grudge from something I did to him back in the spirit world. But I didn't know that. I was a completely different person and he was being irrational by going after me in blind rage.

He chased me screaming, "I'm going to eat you!" But he was big, fat and slow. I was able to out run him. I got away, but I knew he would be after me for the rest of my life.

Then I woke up.

Weird, huh?
