I recently watched all three Terminator movies within 24 hours, and it was apparently influential, because my dream followed the same basic plot. My father, who works for a large, well-known car company, was apparently going to do something very influential in the future and was being hunted down by assassins in the present to try and stop him. Also, inexplicably, I was being hunted too.
The most disturbing part is that the people who are hunting us are all people I know. It starts out as just my father and I being hunted, then it turns into sort of two teams, and alternates between the two.
The stalking/hunting/shooting takes place in a building that is a cross between my old high school and my old church. (That probably means something.) The two sides are based in different areas, and there's a strange door that leads to my side. (More on that later.)
These are the events that I remember.
First, my dad and I get shot at. That is the last time I see my dad for most of the dream. I think one of us may have gotten hit, but we were both alive when we got separated. The people shooting at us were young, my age, and I knew most of them but I can't remember who it was now.
Next, I was at the part of the building that was more my high school. I had driven there in the rain and was trying to figure out how I could get in without having to cross through the assassins' territory. I figured out that I could park in a spot that was right outside my territory, and I got out in the rain and was working on getting myself and my stuff through a gate/fence thing, when I figured out that the fence was not attached and I could lift it a few feet and slide through. My old friend Jennie was there, also. I haven't spoken to her in a long time and I wasn't sure if she was on my side or not, but neither of us made any move to hurt the other.
Next, I was with someone from the other side, she was unarmed, and I was at the door to my territory. The girl was a friend I had in middle school, a very unstable person, who then moved away in high school and I haven't seen her in a long time. I was trying to figure out a way to get through the door without letting her see how is worked.
The door was a time portal, and it was more of a trap door when you opened it. If you just dropped through, you ended up in our territory, but if you somersaulted into it, you traveled backwards or forwards in time, depending on the direction of your somersault. I fed her some lie about how the door worked, went through it the right way, (which was very claustrophobia-inducing because the tunnel I went through was tight - not people-sized - not sure how I got through it.) and ended up in my territory safely. This part was more in my old church than in my old school.
Then, I took a little side-trip to a store with my close friend Anna. Anna was one of the assassins, but there was some sort of unspoken agreement between us that when we were one-on-one with each other, we had a truce. However, she was being too casual and had a gadget with assassin files on it right in front of me, and I couldn't help but try to get some of the information without her noticing. (It didn't work, but she didn't notice either.)
At the end of the dream, I was running down a church hallway trying to get to my dad. I had just realized that the kids he was with, who he thought he was mentoring, were going to try and kill him. I woke up before I knew if I had made it or not.
Also, before all of that business, I dreamed that I met Arnold Schwarzenegger's son. He was really gay, and I was trying to act like it was no big deal that he was Arnold Schwarzenegger's son but I was dying to ask him all about it. I didn't want to mention this before the other dream because it would kind of ruin it.
