Ninja

Before I get to the main part of the dream, there is one part that I remember. I am in Kakariko village from Zelda Ocarina of Time, and I pop out of a yellow deku flower, like in Majora's Mask, but instead, I fly horizontally like superman very quickly across the village. The view is third person.

Now, onto the main part. I'm some commander guy, from a starship it seems, around 35-40 maybe. I'm in this treehouse like place, and the people there are weird. They have these straw masks that turn into capes, and their clothes are very primitive and have designs on them made with fruit I guess. I get a bad feeling from them. For some reason, I leave and go into this desert like place, and I know I'm being followed by an appparent assasin. As I continue into the desert, I find that I can "burrow" under some sand dunes, but are really blankets, and I cover up under them and stick my arm up to make a "hill" type thing. I'm speaking into my watch communicator, when I feel the assasin standing on the "dune" over me, carrying a spear. I'm talking to another officer, and I'm speaking about losing the war, and just dying, but then he reminds me of my wife and apparent family. I then get a new resolve to fight.

I have the feeling of pushing up on the "blanket" to get him off of me, but suddenly I'm in this clay made house, with him standing outside a wooden door, and I push it and he goes flying back into another house (I'm in the house pushing the door in the same instant I'm pushing the "blanket", it just switches from the blanket to the house). I look around and I see several villagers are dead. This village almost looks like the one on Tatooine.

There is now what seems to be a "meanwhile, at such and such place" scene. Some guy who's weirdly dressed is talking to a bunch of followers, saying that some army is going to be there before them, and they will definately lose the battle.

I think I'm standing next to Ben, a friend of mine, and I'm dressed up kinda like a jedi, almost like Anakin from Star Wars II. Well, Anakin is also there, and he jumps into a tree, he'll follow Ben from there, I'll guard him from the ground. How? I'll move from shadow to shadow. The trees casting the shadows are like fat Christmas trees, the kinds we had many of in OK and one in my front yard. They cast long shadows in the neighborhood floodlights (we do seem to be in a neighborhood) and I duck into them, checking along the ground and wall to make sure my own shadow is properly hidden. One time, I look on the wall and my arm is sticking out in the shadow on the wall, and I pull it back in so nobody can see me on a glance, but if they look harder the outline of my body is darker than the tree's shadow. We start on one side of the house, and go around it to the other side, passing up the back side of the house.

We then get to the front, and I knock on the door, there's no answer. Ben comes to the front and walks right into the door. Then Anakin is standing there, but he's not important any more. I begin to take off some of the heavy layers in my uniform, seeing how it's too hard to handle in stealth, and pretty soon all that's left of it is just the vest, now I'm dressed mostly like Master Iruka from Naruto.

I go inside, to see it looks just like my old school STMA in the office complext. There's a computer at the front with an old man there, some women in the corner where the chapel should be, and his dad in the far corner where the ramp would be, surrounded by those wall partitions and sitting in front of a computer. There's a couch on the left side of the room, and I go sit on it. Some of Ben's brothers (well, not necessarily BROTHERS, more like little kids) invite me to play Super Smash Brothers Melee, and I play as Marth for a fight. I don't see how it turns out, because they all leave to play N64. I play a while by myself as Marth against some Alligator guy in Yoshi's level, surprised at how much they haven't played the game because I see a bunch of weird names and characters describing their levels and play time. Hmm.

I look over and I see Ben's dad working, and I generally look around the room for a while. There are several differences, like instead of the "front office" (the school was in an office complex, there wasn't an official one) there was a large window. There also seems to be a "meanwhile, at such and such place" scene. Some guy who's weirdly dressed is talking to a bunch of followers, saying that some army is going to be there before them, and they will definately lose the battle.

***What I think***

At first I didn't remember this dream, only that part in Kakariko village, then as I wrote it, remembered the sneaking around part, then I remembered the desert part. The Kakariko Village part is from me playing Zelda too much lately. I'm not sure about everything else though... maybe the strangeness of my inner self?
