The Dream of 18th April's Morning

Well this morning I had another strange dream. The theme of the dream was something like the movie, Invasion, and probably subconsciously inspired by it, except that I watched that movie like a few weeks ago so it's strange that the effect came on only now.

Anyway, I dreamt that we (we meaning I and other random characters) were in a house, and all was peaceful until we realised... the zombies were outside! And it was all cool and movie-like, with one of the girls going to a window, and upon seeing a zombie silhouette appear through the fog, she gasped, and moved away slowly from the window. Everyone was being all scared about the zombies finding out about us, the ones who hadn't changed. We were thinking of ways to prevent them from knowing. Just like in the movie, Invasion, we thought that if we went outside and acted like the rest of them, they wouldn't notice! However, my experience from watching the walking dead lead me to think, but we don't smell the same do we? And then they'll notice!

So I don't think we ever got out of that house, but the dream jumped to another scene. Still the same scenario, but this time, it wasn't zombies outside, but really those people who had got invaded.  This meant that they acted like normal people, but they had no feelings, no expressions etc etc. Anyway for some really, really strange reason, my sister and I had become tiny little gnomey dwarf things. Yes. Perculiar indeed.

We ran along the streets trying to find a hiding place, but it seemed like they could still notice us, and they were chasing us. We got to one building and ran inside. It was dark, and there were a bunch of ledges along the wall that we were trodding on. But in the darkness, we could still see an even darker figure moving. My sis was like, "Omg. What's that." And I was like "Shyt, don't know." And then we saw it. Its gleaming eyes of crystal and fire. It was a freaking giant pug from the underworld. Or maybe because we had been reduced to the size of an apple, the dog really looked gargantuan to us. It had sensed us and was growling, twisting in circles, flicking its ears to catch the tiniest proof of our existence. Then it saw us. Through the illumination of the moonlight flowing through one of the broken glass windows of the building (this window had just appeared at this moment, seriously, it wasn't there when we came in!), our silhouettes could be seen. And so it lunged. Saliva spitting, breath a-heaving, claws glinting in that dreaded moonlight.
We, of course, panicked and screamed and yelled and what have we, but the dog just didn't get us, somehow.

And then we saw a fellow, who looked like Morpheus, sitting on one of the ledges. He said, "You shouldn't be here. This building is mine." He was wearing matrix sunglasses and was sitting, legs crossed, in a very zen  position. He could have been meditating or looking into the future through those lenses for all we knew.

And so, we very obligingly left the building, unscathed but only by the breath of a bumblebee's leg hair.

We were back on the streets again. Everyone had been invaded already and it was just the two of us, tiny little helpless gnomes, scuttling down the roads. We tried to stop at various shops and hide beneath their display counters and the like, but somehow it seemed like the people could always sense our presence, no matter how small and unnoticeable we thought we were. And in fact, there were actual police chasing us. We heard the sirens, the dogs, the commotion all around us. But we ran on and on....

Finally, we stopped at this house where apparently, the woman had not turned. It was an old lady. She must have been quite a pro cuz she was pretending to be one of them and they still hadn't even noticed. And then the police came up to her. My sis and I had no time to hide so we just stopped under her orange bush in the garden and literally, acted as a garden gnome -.- Oh my god. I cannot even believe i actually dreamt this.

One of the policemen came up to me and gave me a poke. I didn't budge. Actually I was really amazed by myself. I'm usually unnaturally ticklish so I expected to crumble down or curl up in my sensitivity, but no. I stood my ground. And the policeman seemed convinced we were really garden gnomes.

Once the police left my sis and I relaxed. And I don't know what happened next but it was around this moment that the dream ended.
