Blade, Blood and Water

I was in a hall that my subconscious interpreted to be a classroom. A teacher was chasing me around, trying to slash me with a blade in his hand but I managed to dodge. I don't remember or understand why he wanted to cut me up so bad. Finally, when I managed to get out of the deadly classroom, I felt the urge to pee. So, I went to the ladies latrines. All the toilets were occupied so I waited outside. A door opened and a girl from school walked out limping. She had soiled her entire dress and was walking barefeet. She stank of poop. She started falling on me, asking me to hold her but I quickly pushed her away with my hand against her chest. "You stink", I said. "I slept and fell in there." she replied. I looked at my hand that pushed her and it was covered in blood. "Are you bleeding from your chest?" I asked just as other girls took interest in her. Two came to hold her as she looked dizzy. And that's when I saw it. A slit that opened her throat all the way to the chest. I felt bad for pushing her away. I was shocked that she was still alive, talking and walking, with all that blood gushing out. The two girls started walking her to the hospital. I looked at her one more time. She had passed out in the arms of the girls as they tried to drag her faster to the emergency. But then she opened her eyes, a smile on her face, and continued talking as if nothing had happened. I remembered that I needed to pee, so I entered an unoccupied latrine. As I was peeing into the hole, water burst out from the wall as if there was a broken pipe there, and splashed on one of my legs. I didn't mind. I got outside and it was raining heavily. The street was flooded with water. I got this desire to wade in the water and that's what I did. There were other people on the street who didn't seem to mind the downpour. I kept wondering whether the bleeding girl made it to the hospital.
