Underwater dream is too long

I am visiting an underwater resort. Everyone is swimming. It’s bright and easy to see and looks just like being above water. We need to stop for air occasionally, but can hold our breath much longer than usual. It’s nice, but I do want to return to the surface. There is a part with old friends. When we reach the surface we see aliens (??) or possibly plants in large ships attacking. The surface world is destroyed. A bridge explodes into blue stone. I go back underwater, where some people are oblivious but others are watching the news. I’m afraid the aliens will find us underwater. I go back to the surface. I want to call my mother. My phone was cracked from the water pressure, but still has a signal. I can’t call. We explore the topside world. I am now a young woman. The ground has been covered in crude quilts of last green and blue, representing land and water. We find there is a shell around the land, blocking the sky. We live in this s world for a long time. We still need to forage for pockets of air, even though we’re not underwater. Eventually we find a small chamber. The ceiling is covered in blue cloud quilts. Representing the sky. I peel them away and find black star quilts, representing space. I peel them away and there is a window behind. I can see people on land on the other side. They’ve rebuilt civilization. Kids start to throw rocks at the pod windows to break it and let us out. I feel like this should be the end of the dream. I’m dreaming, but also watching it in a theatre. The dream keeps going. The Rena ants of civilization are built on some strange cult. We ride in a slow moving carriage that has blades on the front that tear apart anyone in the way. We go to an altar in the woods near the university of Rochester (why??). We’re making a sacrifice under a cross when the aliens come back to destroy the world. Wake up in a futuristic city. I ride on a flying board without handles or railings, but don’t fall. I don’t know where it’s going, so I jump off at what looks to be a medical centre. It’s bright white and well lit and futuristic looking. Everyone ignores me. I try to get some food. It’s the future. Civilization has been rebuilt again. I find access to the surface. Everything is orange because of thick smog. The aliens return to destroy the world, shooting arrows that explode, taking out everything. At this point, I’ll m in the theatre watching the dream getting ready to leave, but the man next to me tells me that there’s a lot more to come. The movie doesn’t end until midnight. I am in a glass room on a rooftop. A man nearby lets me out. I find another window leading to my mothers rooftop apartment. There is a puzzle to solve to get into the window. I do, and transform into a cat. I’m not sure if I should hide or find her. Eventually I find her and find out that I’ve been in a coma and this had all been a dream. I can’t leave the apartment. I find a glowing black portal in the floor. I see the aliens return outside the window. I decide to go through the portal and take my chances. When I do, I wake up for real. This dream was much too long. I was complaining even while asleep.
