I had a dream I was with my brother in a factory where he works. It was incredibly clean and he was showing me his main position. Working a machine to bend metal.
Other workers stayed away at first. But they slowly gathered around. Making a show of it, really. Setting up chairs, getting close.
Then my brother warped into a girl and continued to show me what she does there.
I really wanted to hug that girl. Always do whenever I see her. Her features were clear and detailed, but too personal to output here.
A heavy set guy, not quite fat, with a rough, short beard and mexican features but entirely white, sat next to me. You know, looks like a prick. No one I know, just an embodiment of annoyance.
He leaned in and started talking in my ear. Telling me we both know that even though it's my dream, he has more of a chance to fuck her than I do. That I'd be powerless and want it. Because all I want is to see her happy. I told him I'd rather bring in her boyfriend if that's the case, because at least he's hot and I have a chance with both. (I know, damn it.) But he kept insisting.
More people were gathering, to the point of getting creepy. Like guardians of a dream telling me something is wrong.
There was one way out. Break the demonstration and get her attention to leave. So I went in and bear hugged her as loosely yet close as possible since she bruises easily. She didn't push me away, never does. She just relocated my hands to less sensual positions due to being in public.
When it was clear I wasn't letting go, she stood up and started walking away. Not because she didn't like it but because she finally noticed it was getting dangerous there. Other people were clearly on edge and getting worse.
I kept my hands on both her shoulder and the side of her stomach, following her outside with my body close. She knew the place better, of course.
"We'll take care of this [frustration] after we get to my place" she said. But something about the tone of her voice said we'd never make it there. I was getting afraid.
As soon as we got outside, red alarm lights went off inside. But I could only see them in reflections and could not hear any alarms, despite knowing they should be loud.
All of the gates leading directly outside, like off the property, were locked. So we kept circling around counter clockwise. Getting faster out of fear, but knowing no one will follow quickly. Most of the workers even on high alert are lazy pricks. But I was afraid. She asked why we were running, and I could not answer.
Eventually she managed to split off. Knowing the only way to get out is to separate. Dream logic and all that.
The gate in front of me going counter clockwise shut itself while the one clockwise had swung open. I followed her trails through it trying to catch up.
The trail led away from the building and back counter clockwise around the previous path. (To signify the split, showing it was the right way, just the wrong method, I guess)
Still going through metal gates, but these both open and electrically charged. Instead of leading away (There was no path out), it led back into the building. Where I saw her go inside and a few people were walking out.
"Can't you see? They're hungry!"
God damn it. One started chewing on my arm and I had to wake up.
There's no way I've ever been able to save a dream from zombie infestation.
