okay, this was three days ago, but I don't care, it was too good not to tell...
So, I had a bunch of younger sisters and brothers. We were orphans and had to beg or collect cans and stuff during the day, and then at night we had nowhere to live but this huge rotting old house. We slept in one tiny room because it was closest to the front door and we were scared to go further into the house.
But one night, one of the little girls heard someone calling her and left our little room and went up a huge flight of stairs and disappeared. We all went after her because we knew there was somethng dangerous in the rest of the house, but the youngest boy was scared to go and stayed in the little room.
(I'm leaving out tons of stuff that made the dream all weird and atmospheric for the sake of brevity, but trust me, it was damn creepy. I have kick-ass dreams.)
I was with the others, but then, in the way of dreams, I was watching the youngest boy instead of seeing from my point of view. Alone now in the room, he was feeling bad that he was too scared to go find the sister that had left. Then a voice told him, "You're not the courageous one, but you can help with your ability to be persuasive. Call the security guard and persuade him to come help."
(This is where my brain felt too creeped out and threw in some humor.)
So he phoned someone who turned out to be the blonde guy (Langley?) of the Lone Gunmen, from X-Files.
Langley showed up with all these gadgets, and he and the little boy went up the stairs, and found that the other kids and I had all gotten on a train. We were sitting in a train car with lots of other people, and we were terrified, because we knew all the other people were dead and going to take us somewhere bad, but we couldn't leave.
So Langley brought out this light that he shone on all the dead people, and in the light you could see they were all rotted away, and then they all realized they were dead. They didn't look dead until the light was on them, so they didn't know. When they realized they were dead and the kids and I weren't, they let us leave. It was a fab dream.
