Odd Water Training - Yard Digging - Dark Church

Date: 10/27/2017

This dream is initially set in open water. We are doing some sort of emergency water rescue training. There is no land in sight and I am floating with another young man. There is nothing around us, only waves. We have two rocks to support us, so we don't separate when the waves crash. There is also a mesh sling attached to each of our rocks so we can sleep without being carried away. Other than these things mentioned, we have nothing and must survive on nothing. Eventually, (after what feels like forever out there) a young woman shows up on a boat to bring us back to land. We passed the survival test! She tells us that we are the only group that had both people survive, sadly. --------------------------------------------- I am home. In this dream, I live in a shiny, clean single-wide trailer; it is only my parents and I that live here. In this dream, I never go inside. I find that odd now that I am awake, but it didn't seem so weird in the dream. I begin digging at the front right corner of the house for an unknown reason. After some while, the young man who was partnered with me during the survival exam showed up at my house and begins to help me in digging. It feels like we are digging for a relatively short amount of time when we hit obviously sculpted stone. I begin to hit it with my foot to try to knock it loose, so we can pull it out. It drops and I fall through the hole in the now open ground. --------------------------------------------- I landed on the outer thigh of my left leg. I look up and the hole starts swelling shut. I yell up to YM (the young man) to hurry and jump down. He does. After he stands, he helps me up. We begin walking and this tunnel gets brighter as we walk, as opposed to the bitter pitch darkness we were bathed when we first entered. We eventually found a giant door that we were small enough to crawl under. I'm the dream this didn't seem odd, I just went with it. Immediately after crawling under the door with YM, we notice that everything in here is oversized. As we climb down the steps we notice an altar and pews that are just built up from the floor, I am reminded of a cathedral. A large person, giant if you will, climbs out from under the stairs and begin stalking around the "cathedral". From our point of view we can see that they are wearing some apparatus that distorts their face/head shape and they are completely nude. It stops, it's head start to bob as it would if you were sniffing the air. It spins it's head to face us, I have never seen something so grotesque. I can't remember what it looked like, but I was instantly hit with a wave of nausea and my blood ran cold. YM and I darted for the door. When we turned, there were no large stairs. It was instead a slope. We got up as fast as we could and flew under the door. This devilish beast was still behind us, and closing in. We knew, because we heard it's thundering footsteps pulverizing the earth behind us. --------------------------------------------- YM is helping me out of the ground (the hole reopened?). My father and YM's uncle are sitting around a campfire, drinking. My mother peeks her head out of the door to check on us, I can't remember what she looked like. Everything cuts to black and I wake up.
