Okay, so this is where you talk about your freakiest dreams and scariest nightmares.
the one I'm posting about more fits into the "freakiest dream" part more than nightmare...but if I weren't capable to make decisions in my dreams [can't control them, but I can decide what I'm doing o.o] it would have quickly turned into a horrible, HORRIBLE nightmare.
So, I was depressed because of my feelings for someone who didn't, er, feel mutual about me. Things weren't getting any better, so I decided to go see this wiseman to ask for advice. You know, one of those old Chinese dudes who wear funky hats and robes and have looong beards.
So, I walk into this part of my town that's kinda super-rural, and walk down the road to where this Bhuddist temple is supposed to be. As soon as I get by the foliage, it looks like I'm in some European city inhabited by oriental people; the streets are cobblestone and the buildings look like some old buildings I've seen on my trips to Europe. So I keep walking down the road and a say hi or something to a shopekeeper selling vegetables...I walk around a building and I get to this HUGE town square. Right in the center is a pretty fountain, and in front of the town square is this building where the wiseman is. I talk to one of the guards and he kind of laughs. "You want to talk to the wiseman?" This blonde girl who was working in a stall nearby tells me where to go to see him.
So, I sit on this stone bench where some other people are, waiting for a chance to see him. He does some stuff up there, and walks out...he comes up to our bench to greet the people or something and he notices at me. Pretty much the whole time I was there I had this sad expression on my face, and it got worse when he came by [but that might have been so he'd pity me and offer the advice I came for ^_^ heh]. So he notices how depressed I look, pauses, then turns to go, beckoning me to follow. So I do.
Anyway, he and his little assistants go one way and another takes me another way. We go into this kind of icky-looking place that looks like it came out of one of those shots of Afghan you'd see in TIME magazine. I go in and walk down the hall, noticing there's a lot of showers with bed just built below them [you'd jump down the shower into the bed below ground level] and see the end of the hall, where a woman is sitting on a large pillow, stirring something in a small pot. I saw another girl drink some of it and look tired. I hide in a room next to me and hear the wise man sing something like, "First she drinks then feels sick then I have fun"
So I use my keen smarts to figure out that drink/sludge is a drugged tea of some kind to knock out the drinker, then he has his way with them. O_O So i get out and head immidietly for the exit, but the wise man is standing in the doorway. He asks me where I'm going and I say something like, "I feel sick and need to go home to my mom," but realize he'll just tell me to drink the tea to make me feel better while I spoke to him about my problem. I just run by him fast as I can. It seems the temple area was it's own city now and a lot bigger than it was...I run into someone's fenced garden and can't open the gate, but the blonde shopkeeper-thing person I talked to opens it for me. I tell her what happened and she said the same happened to her, but she couldn't leave because she had nowhere to go. I tell her she could stay with me. Some guards are coming, so we both run out past the second fence.
We seem to run through a small farming field before running out onto concrete [it's night now]. Right in front of us is a Chinese retaurant, but we don't risk going inside for fear that they may hand us over to the wiseman. We keep sprinting away, cross a road, then read a house. I look up, and see my parents and friends of my family. Apparently we had been gone for nearly a week and my parents invited them over to help look for me. I bang on the door and we get inside...they don't look so relieved that I came back as happy to see me, as if they were expecting a visit.
i talk to my friend, then before explaining what happens, I wake up.

Things that influenced it:
-there's this Bhuddist [did I spell that right?] temple in my town not too far from a theme park here.
-The Catholic Priests and the Young Boys ordeal o_o;; or something pertaining to that theme.
-Amsterdam. Much like in my dream, there's this...town square type of thing where there are lots of pidgeons and people in front of this enormous old building.
-that whole rantish type thing that I wrote up in Death of You's advice topic.
-An article I read in Teen People about a girl who was gang raped by a bunch of guy friends.
