Climbing Scaffolding and an Ancient Line Battle, for young Jesus...

The viewpoints and what was worn must've shifted a couple times. The basic premise was there was a field... sometimes open, typically with water (not sure if it was deep) for a pitched line battle essentially. Earlier I think I was in the garb of a WWII US soldier as I hopped onto this metal scaffolding above water and climbed and shimmied along it. It was all thin metal tubes above for your hands and below for your feet. So gripping the top we would scoot along these bars. Some of the bottom bars occassionally were unconnected so I would swing and use my arms to get beyond the bad area. At this point, I think I just saw a horizon of water, like Lake Michigan or an Ocean. After a little bit of moving down the line, no one in front of me and maybe some following me, I arrived at this video gamey portion of the dream. The scaffolding had apparently led to these large structures, houses, buildings, bridges, and towers. My view was like that of a video game editor where we laughed at this tower that was out of place and maybe floating, (they pointed it out first and I had to look for a couple seconds to see it). Later, we were now pitched for a line battle of ancient times I think, swords, spears, and the lot. I was maybe an elite guard or something? It wasn't entirely serious and seemed like a game, not actual war. Now the field may have had water, but it was all a big squad 100 yards by 100 yards maybe (length of a football field). I decided to go to our savior of Jesus incarnate or something. So I run back inside, jump some of the auditorium seating, look a little out of place wearing like just a loincloth or maybe shorts and no shirt, a couple people here were in suits. I thought about the sand on me might have been getting all over the place. Into the hallway to the left staircase, past other more normal people. To the right to the classroom where the new Jesus was in class... He was my cousin Tony at like age 10 or something (at the age I know him from more as opposed to modern day age). The teacher and him come out. There is a brief talk, he says something about this girl in class who the teacher (female) tells him he won't or shouldn't think about the girl because of his great future ahead. I want to hurry up and get back to the battle before it starts. I look out the window to see the water field mostly empty... maybe some people fighting towards the parallel building on the opposing side. I say we must be going and I rush back down to the staircase, across the hall, down the auditorium seating outside. Tony remarks that maybe something has yet to still happen. There are scattered people, including my family, but the armies are both gone, presumably into the building on the opposing side of the water field. To the right of the field are two British redcoats with amusingly large and bad looking blunderbusses, maybe they look like mediocre cosplayers as opposed to accurate representations. I run down to the beach and start taking my clothes off (which I thought were already off, but oh well). My grandma and family say something about sunburn, I respond with something about not getting burned. Then I run down to the water before realizing I am completely nude, I cover my junk while running back to put on some shorts or something. My brother saying no one wants to see that as I reply, "I typically have a swim suit on underneath." I think I woke up here for a brief time. Once back asleep I think there was just this one scene in a bathroom, presumably in the same building as before (offshoot of the big 1st floor hallway). My grandma and dad were both there and I'm filling up this big cup... it was a little disturbing to have my grandma there, I remember thinking, isn't this a men's bathroom? My dad leaves, I go to a couple spots to try fininshing. My grandma leaves too. Now I look around, there are a few women in here as well. I walk up to a couple of them but don't do anything, then I wake up.
