Nightmare 1

Woken up by daughter/sister I don't have in the middle of the night that something is wrong. I was sleeping in the living room of a strange house that wasn't my own. The front door is open and a car is running while someone (I think my wife/mother) scrambles inside right before car screeches off into the night, I'm outside alone in the dark in some vague suburban neighborhood with the only light being the orange tinted street lights. I spot a cop in a patrol car and I run towards him for help, leaving the door open the my dark house. All the houses look dark and empty. Dread is in the air, something is very wrong on a massive scale. I yell for help, the cop sees me and exits the vehicle, gun drawn telling me to get on my stomach and put my hands behind my head, as a safety precaution. I scream that I need help and that something's wrong, he asks what the problem is and I tell him that my wife/mother is missing. He asks "Is she alive?" in a commanding but comforting way. I say "Yes" or "Yeah I think so". He responds with "Good, maybe she can help me find mine..." Before finishing what he says, I watch him turn the gun on himself and pull the trigger right as he finishes his last words. He's dead. Dazed and in horror, I stumble to my feet and stare at the body for a few seconds. Dread fills the pit of my stomach. Everything is over and all hope is long gone and has been since that car drove off into the night. I knew then that they were dead too. Briefly, I hear a few voices, some distant, reverberated yelling and rushed footsteps. Before I know it, people are just running into the streets from all directions and screaming in terror and madness. Reality was over, and madness had overtaken everything on earth, I could feel it. This is the end of everything. People start attacking each other and killing themselves simultaneously, whichever came first. Death is everywhere and bodies are piling up and lining the street. More and more crowds of bloodthirsty people are pouring into the streets. I've already started running at this point in pure fear and horror wondering why. I was being chased. There was nowhere to go. I knew I was going to die. I was mobbed and killed just as I woke up. This all happened in less than 5 or 4 minutes.
