It began as thieves in a post apocalyptic world. We were running around our hideout trying to grab what weapons we had. I was their sniper. Every thing we had was rigged together like the second scope on my rifle was taped on so I could move the tape around to move the scope depending on how far the target was. Me and the groups two other professional gunman had to get to the roof. We shut all the lights off in the field surrounding us to not give away our own position and I laid down to look out for the people trying to get in to our hideout to kill us all off. They were a serious threat to us and we had people on the ground dispatched to take care of them. Through my scope, I could see a group of about six people going at it in hand to hand combat on the sea containers. I couldn't tell our target from our own people until one person broke free, did parkour to get back to the ground, and then ran for the hideout. I shot them and they immediately fell. My two brothers on the roof with me cheered. We headed back inside after that to celebrate a victory. Once inside, we started shooting the enemy inside because they had broken in. We fired BB guns. Now it was all pretend. Three shots meant you're dead, it was an agreed upon rule. I took out maybe five people before finally dying myself. My brothers grabbed my body and moved it out of the way. When the round was over, there were six dead of our own. I got up and asked if I could start over as a new character. They said okay and somehow it switched to some middle earth environment. They assigned me to be a trasgendered ogre named 'Ghoul'. That wasn't how you spell it. It was somewhere along the lines of Oguul and there were three more words to the first name but because I couldn't say it myself, they agreed to just call me 'Guul'. I followed everyone back outside to find everyone in elaborate wardrobes. The environment was beautiful, like Disney beautiful. But it was fake, it was just for the role players. Some buildings were real to be used, while others were props. There was a meeting being called forth as everyone gathered. There were ogres, wizards, elves, giants, tribesman, kings-man, etc. We all gathered around to listen as they pulled the people trying to hide as wizards on stage. Some weird things happened, I don't remember. Then a noble woman sat beside me on the wooden fence. She began talking and opened a book to flip through. She came across a photo of the prince and a metallic drinking vessel. She pulled the vessel straight from the page and opened the top but it was empty. The bottom of it was in the center with four holes creating a square. It was some kind of filter. She said something and water raised from the holes to fill it. She passed it around for us to share. It would always produce more water. I was unworthy as a slave ogre so I got skipped. The woman beside me, also unworthy, sighed and said she wished she could be worthy before passing it on. Then I woke up. There was a dragon in this dream somewhere. I remember now, we headed back inside to our thief's hideout to escape the dragon. It began breathing fire. We found a weapon that shot ice and thought it would work against the dragon before it set everything on fire. With the building burning around us, we ran outside and came out to snow. The dragon swooped down to breath fire on us as we shot it with the ice device but we only made it worse. Now, it shot ice instead of fire. That is all I remember. And something about Loni and I travelling together and renting a 10k hotel room for a week because...yolo? So we got the room and went to walk around the posh rich people mall. I went into a store and took a piece of fudge because it was a free sample. A worker there came up to me with a bright smile and very cheerily said if I don't eat anymore, they could package the rest into a box of free samples. Still chewing the other one, I nodded. They said to come back later and it will be ready. Loni found me in the store eating and said she wanted to watch a movie. We started to leave when I woke up. I never got my box of free fudge samples. It made me sad.
