Dream
This dream made me very uneasy. I was a traveller, running around the world with a group of friends and comrades. I was not myself, but another boy. We roamed the world, saw waterfalls and canyons, had fun together until something happened. There's a blurred part there, but I remember we were being chased by someone in a street market. We ran, and ran, trying to come up with a plan to escape. In the end, we manage to capture whoever was following us: it was something akin to a robotic shapeshifter, cursed to be binded to a broken artifical body. We take it with us, but that's our mistake. The scene changes, and we're in a temple, trying to go in. I see myself personally slaughtering two of my friends, killing them brutally because they had tried to sell me to a guy in exchange of a key. My other friends ran away, scared of something, and suddenly the robotic creature takes the body of one of my deceased ex comrades and morphs it. I can hear the loud crack of breaking bones, and the scene is very gore. It then starts chasing me with a smile, walking, speaking sweet things to me to get me to go with it. I try to hide, but the room is not that big. It also shapeshifts into a giant head, and tries to squash me with a very big hammer-like object. A few minutes pass, and I'm exhausted. The thing chasing me laughs bitterly, and tells me there's nothing to be scared of. I climb a tall column, but it stands at the feet of it, observing me with a wicked smile. Then, it reaches out with a hand, and I try to defend myself throwing some dog-shaped balloons at it, to no avail. In the end, I surrender. The thing holds my wrist very tightly in order not to make me escape and opens the door of the temple, pulling me in and speaking sweet yet terrifying nothings in my ear. The scene changes. I see the scene from another point of view: my friends are around a pool, eating pizza they made, but I'm not there. Their laughs are forced, as they're clearly trying to deal with my disappearance by distracting themselves, everyone but one guy. He has an empty expression on his face, and he's reading a comic. The others try to "cheer him up", but he just snaps, yells at them and leaves. Then I wake up.
