Cats, Dogs and Zombie Apocalypse

Two dreams in one night.

In the first dream I was walking by the beach when the sea advanced and suddenly I was swimming with all the people in the water that had invaded the coast. There was a lot of debris and people where trying to grab onto something to keep afloat. I myself was struggling.

I felt something bumping on my legs bellow the water line... there was a dog and a cat struggling to survive like the most of us, the dog in fact wasn't succeeding. I raised the dog to the surface and put the cat on my shoulder. Although the dog was in a worst condition his older age seem to have kept him calmer than the cat, in fact the dog not only couldn't swim but I also noticed that he was old and blind, whereas the cat could manage to keep his head above water and seemed to be in good health.

A surfer saw me with the two and he offered to take the dog on the surfing board, though I've always felt more connected to dogs I new it was the right thing to do.

Looking around I noticed a huge structure floating ... It looked like the metallic frame of a broken outdoor. Many people where either swimming around it or standing on top of it. Something bothered me in the scene as I noticed that all the men where swimming and the floating structure had only women on it though it seamed to have enough space for everyone. Getting closer to it I heard some discussions from the dichotomous situation.. the women where screaming at whoever approached, it was ridiculous!

I swam strait though the men and climbed on the floating structure although I heard a lot of screaming and received a lot of bad looks. To make it obvious that there was enough space for everyone I climbed to the top of the metallic structure where no one wanted to go; it rocked back and forth with the water.

On top of the structure with the frightened cat still attached to my shoulder I had a conversation with my dad that happened to pass by floating on a hot air balloon.


The second dream I was in a castle. The place seemed to be a standing for quite a while with order and as much decency you can expect in times like those. The world outside was apocalyptic, living dead everywhere..

Well the dream started with an outbreak from withing. The castle was breached with the dead ones... although we had a rehearsed procedure in times like these when I saw the corridor was overrun I new that I couldn't expect the place to hold any longer... yelling and panic everywhere. The hardest part for me was to hear some that still believed we could save the fort if only everyone kept to their positions, unfortunately those where the ones that often died first as they gave time for the rest to run. The world is dust, and justice bahhh.. I never saw it in the castle.

I ran.

Went up the stare case, outside to the courtyard, up the stone wall of one of the towers and found myself a place on the roof that I wouldn't be seen by the dead. I lay down there as I heard the screaming become less and less frequent through the night.

As the sun started to rise some of the dead actually saw me. Some strange looking ones rushed in my direction as I made my way down the walls of the tower. Three dead ones where not a problem, I was worried about a horde like what we saw during the night. Killed one, two and as I was killing the third I finally saw some of my kind. They opened a safe door and from there a young woman with ten to fifteen children left and stared around with little hope. From the other side of the courtyard another young lady appeared looking with sleepless eyes at our faces.

I knew I needed to take care of them. The women and the children... If not me, who else?
