The Cave

(This is the 2nd time I've had this dream) We are at a camp and we train for a short while with weapons and survival skills. Then we get sent into the cave. We are sent in through a mind pathway. So technically we aren't there, it's more of a simulation. The cave is filled with "demons" which are basically odd human like creatures that live in the darkness of the cave. Each day that we are in the sim is a month. And once you are killed in the sim you return to the really world, but only during mealtimes. The rest of the time you get to look through the eyes of the "demons" piggybacking in their brain watching the show. When we went in we had a few weapons of our choice, I chose to have two katana's and a few throwing knives in my belt. I was the best survivor out of all of them, by the second day, or what was the second "month" in the sim. There were only a few left other than myself, and I had just gotten to the king. I had decided to sneak up on him, and use him as leverage to get his "army" to not attack me in exchange for his life. Because he saw that a brave, he gave me his shadow sword as a sign of his kindness. I strapped it to my waist and ran off. I had tried to help get people out of the cave, but they had died in the process. I was the only one left and I took the last jump and escaped the cave. When I woke up on the same comfortable table that I had been hooked to, except I had the shadow sword to my side. A trophy of my survival. Sadly it left me scarred. Soon after I awoke they showed us the real cave, and I was the only one who had "survived" the sim, now they wanted to send me in for real.
