I was involved in some kind of secret agency as a recruit. What we did was roaming around the globe on a sort of big helicopter to do missions that often involved extremely dangerous situations. Before getting deployed our team leader gave us a briefing on the situation and then we were ready to land and begin. This time, for some reason, I got on the mission spot by myself and late. We were in a Muslim country in central Asia, the men dressed very similarly to the Afghans: they wore turbans and vests, I don't remember seeing any woman. We were solving a situation where two groups were having a dispute over something, but one of the two groups had kidnapped some children of their rivals and were about to execute them in public, in front of their enemies. Arriving on the spot late, I was divided from the rest of my group and when the fight begun I was not in an optimal position. I saw people around me dying hit by throwing knives big as cleavers. Blood was spraying everywhere. I kept an eye on the kids, and even they were fighting wielding big knives and stabbing adults. Some others had firearms like submachine guns and pistols. I was scared and somehow managed to hide myself, and run away from the site. I got caught by the leader of one of the two groups that kidnapped me, I had to follow him to some place in the city or he would have killed me on spot. I decided to follow him. He was the leader of some extremist muslim group, so I decided to play the card: "I am a Muslim too, you shouldn't be doing this, we are brothers". He didn't believe me at all, so I asked him to take me to a mosque for praying. He agreed. I was worried because I know no muslim prayer, but I knew that my life depended on my knowledge of Islam. So when we got outside the mosque I started to tell him things about the story of Islam, Mohammed, and I told him I am a sufi and that do dakr everyday (a form of meditation by repeating one of the names of Allah). He believed me and we didn't even enter the mosque, even if he said that he considers sufism heretic and that I should 'convert' to "real Islam". I was free and decided to go back to where my team was fighting. Once I got there I realised that the fight was over. We won. I had a brief vacation. The scene shifted and I was in a house, the people who lived there were all familiar to me, but I know none of them in real life. I also had a girlfriend (in real life I am single), and this was her family's house. We were on the bed cuddling and talking when she told me that she was pregnant of 4 months. I told her: "but we have been together for 2 months" and she said that she knew it wasn't mine, but asked me if I wanted to stay with her and be the father of her child. I accepted and she was really happy, and I was too. I couldn't wait to become a dad. We had a party with all the family. I got back on the helicopter for the next mission, and this time the expedition leader wanted me to learn to operate it. I accepted and he started showing me the console with all the buttons. He taught me what to press in order to turn on and off motors, to open the windows, air conditioning and so on... I woke up.
