Don't take a nap right after you wake up I suppose is the lesson I learned today. I'm normally not one for sharing my fucked up dreams, but this one stuck in my head for some reason, so I guess I'm trying to get it out.
The dream is set up as if it's a movie, maybe a trailer for a movie. Or a bunch of movie trailers? Although the genera is... Unknown. In my apartment, a person who may or may not be me is sleeping in the same place I was actually sleeping. Suddenly the apartment building is invaded by armed and masked men of unknown intent. They sweep though the building killing the residents. The person in my room wakes up, hearing this happen, and has to play a deadly game of hide and seek with the killers (two in particular that share some traits with Harry and Marv from home alone, but they aren't funny or comedic, they are sinister and terrifying.)
Meanwhile, in the apartment, someone has been shot. The scene moves to inside their body. A group of juvenile human cells and other bits (it's unclear what they are, it's all very cartoony and they are mostly colored shapes, one appears to be a blood cell, and one is identified as I think ATP, or something that carries ATP but there's a goodly sized group that are who knows what of various shades and shapes.) are left alone, as the adult bits have left (Implied that they left the area for some reason to deal with the body being shot) this area of the body. A group of mobster like germs invade the body though the wound, and they kidnap the kids to help them pull off the big heist, breaking into the stomach vault. They manage to break into the vault, but when there they find that the body is dying, and if they don't manage to regulate it's functions appropriately and revive the man, they'll all die.
Meanwhile, two people have escaped from the slaughter within the apartment and made their way outside, in a park outside (that doesn't exist in real life) they find a very large group of children, overseen by some adults, having a picnic. They blend in with this group to avoid any of the armed and masked men from noticing their escape, as it's implied that they might be keeping an eye on this group outside to make sure they don't notice the slaughter going on inside the apartment. They tell the adults in charge of the group of the situation, and they agree they need to lead the kids away from the building without arising suspicion. In an illthought move, they decide to tell the kids they have icecream waiting for them, but it was one of the escapes that said it, the kids, having had noticed where they come from, decide the icecream is in the building, and stream towards it on mass. The adults try to stop them to no avail, finally as they enter the foyer the adults plead with the kids to stop, telling them that bad men are in the building. In a weird ass twist the children pull out rusted knives, sharpened rusty spoons, and nails and declare that if they bad men don't give them the ice cream, they'll take it by force. Then they invade the building and it turns into a horror movie for the INVADERS as the kids turn out to be some terrifying monsters, the crawl on walls and ceilings, though vents, and leap onto their victims tearing out their throats with their crude weapons. The apartment turns out to be a maze of dark and smokey corridors perfect for this type of fighting and even with their fully automatic weapons and body armor it turns into a desperate fight to re-organize and survive for the armed men.
There was a four part to the dream as well, although it's a bit less interesting and exciting: It appeared to be a trailer for romance movie of some sort, the short of it: A trio of women (in some type of romantic relationship with each other) are eating at a cafe and having a fine time chatting to a waitress. There was a somewhat dramatic lead up to revealing that the chef was listening in to their conversation, and would somehow tie it into the other three stories, but before the chef was actually revealed a phonecall woke me up so idk.
