Another weird dream I had... |

I just had an interesting dream. It started out very much like Grand Theft Auto IV's Race mode. I was on a motorcycle, racing against a bunch of guys in cars, only the freeways and section of city we were racing on was suspended in air. Like, a huge portion of city, just floating there. I eventually got knocked off the track. I abandoned my bike, and, just like in Saint's Row The Third, I face planted the ground without harm.
Annoyed at the people who knocked me off the track, I called down an airstrike on the floating platform of city. Last I saw of it, a huge round shot down the middle of the floating platform.
Next, I decided to take a Scorpion Tank from the Halo series to that same group's base, a base and area of city that was now covered in snow. However, the Scorpion Tank acted more like Lost Planet's spider tank, complete with hover jets. Which was fortunate, because the only way to reach the enemy base was to climb giant, floating pieces of what appeared to be marble columns.
After climbing the marble "stairs" with the tank, we reached the enemy base. Oh yes, "we". The team now consisted of a stereotypical chinese driver, russian pilot, AND some blonde chick (I'm not sure if I was any one of these people). Somehow, the inside of the Scorpion Tank was now huge, almost like a fishing boat's quarters. Anyway, once inside the base, we opened fire on....Cerberus troopers from Mass Effect. Mostly Assault Troopers and Centurions. We fought for a while, and eventually "won", and I was then treated to a cutscene:
It showed the inside of the tank. The blonde woman was nowhere to be seen, instead replaced by Hina Kagiyama from the Touhou Project series, dressed in a heavy brown fur coat that almost ran the length of her dress. She spoke to the chinese driver and old russian pilot (she also had a russian accent now, for some reason) about how she was terminally "infected" by something (indeed, there were glowing red markings appearing on her body), and that she wanted to die with the snow beneath her boots, just like her father had. It appears to me that she was suggesting her father, another soldier, died from exposure while lost in the snow.
She reached for a bulkhead door, similar to a carrier ship's door, ready to open it. The inside of the tank's quarters went pitch black, lit only by a small light near the door. Shocked, Hina reached for the door and opened it quickly - here, I should note that this part of the scene was in first person, and just before Hina opened the door, a small, shadowy black hand appeared out of the bottom right corner of her/my vision, almost grasping her/me. Outside, it was now suddenly in the dead of night, during a massive blizzard. Nothing could be seen around her or the tank; no base, no city, nothing. Just endless snow and darkness. Oh, and the Scorpion Tank had now turned into a WWI tank...I forget the exact model. Rounded turret, stubby main gun. The space inside it, though, was still abnormally huge.
Looking back into the tank's hull, it appeared to be some kind of "portal to hell": the door she just exited was connected to darkness, and on the other side of the darkness was a red portal of sorts, with the russian soldier gazing out from within. Hina closed the bulkhead door firmly, and marched off into the midnight blizzard...
So, a seemingly innocent, video game-induced dream quickly turned very dark and metaphorical. Weird.
