I find myself in a military. The battle field is at home. The fight involves guns. I with my team who are at an open field spots the enemy hiding in tea bushes. We lay on the ground and we start shooting. they also start shooting back. I am afraid that some bullets might get me and therefore I try my best not to get fired. We start retreating as the firing gets aggressive. They shoot until some bullets starts landing a few meters in front of me. A few gets me and our team and that's when I realize that but the guns had no actual bullets but water instead. The spray water but for a long distance. So the firing is based on water and not bullets. No wonder the enemies did not die because we'd gotten them first and shooted at them massively. Fear eludes me. I hear one of the enemy soldiers shout that they've gotten thirsty. So some go to quench thirst. They borrow some water from my aunt and get some from a spring which is within our farm. my team and I have no worries about the water because we had plenty. So we laugh out loud when they say they are thirsty. The fight continues. I don't exactly recall how we were captured but I find myself together with some team members inside the enemy's territory confined in a house with and taken care of by security officers who now had real guns with real bullets. I try to think about an escape plan all through. They take us to a river. They had us do some ritual before they kill us. I try to tell my partner soldier to swim through the river and escape but he highlights the dangers of such an action and it makes sense. They might fire while we are under water or jump wait for us to swim across the river and shoot us whenever we raise our heads from the water because after all we cannot hold our breath in the water for so long. However, this cousin of mine is familiar with this ritual and he knows the best time during the ritual when we can make an escape. I eagerly anticipate for that moment. There's a moment the security guards look away from us and I think this is the time to escape. I signal him but he says I wait a little. Then I realize there's a guard coming from behind. He could have spotted us before we escaped. Then I meet myself in confined in that same building. It's now remaining a few minutes before a decision to kill us is made. Then my girlfriend appears. She is furious and determined to save me. She rumbles at the soldiers who rarely respond back. I am held captive and I an on my knees. She talks loud and bitterly at the soldiers asking them to get her lover( me) me free. I feel so bad for her because I think in my mind that although she is trying her best to talk the soldiers to my freedom, her efforts could barely yield fruits. Although I honestly wish she succeeds. There's a soldier guarding me specifically and the other soldiers are guarding their leader. There are 4 soldiers in general keeping us captive with my team. My girlfriend talk escalates and it draws closer to the leader of these enemies. She is talking loudly towards him. This gets the soldiers attention and they draw near to remove her from their leader, including the soldier who was guarding me. Then I smell an opportunity. She had succeeded in distracting them. I gather the courage and decide to risk. I quickly follow the soldier who was guarding me and attacks him from behind. I get hold over thevgun and we combat for it. I overwhelm him in strength. I turn the gun towards towards him and shoots him. He drops down. Then I manage to quickly shoot the rest of the soldiers, killing them just before they could kill me. I kill all of them. We carry their guns and decide to escape immediately. Since we are in the enemy's territory I figure out there might be several other soldiers out there who might come as a back up and pursue us fiercely as we escape. Nevertheless, we are determined to escape. We get out of the building and start running towards the woods. Upon getting outside, I realize there's a swarm of soldiers who had been practicing outside in a nearby field. They realize we are escaping. I fell bad because they had realized our escape before we could get far. They will now be pursuing us nearly. Nevertheless I decide we run into the woods and try our lack. I realize some of our team members who had been held captive are taking too long to get out of the building. I shout and inform them that the enemy has realized our escape. They hurry but I couldn't wait for them. I start running. Then I realize I am with my younger sister at the fore front running as fast to the woods. Then we meet some school girls in uniforms going back home after school. Fortunately, her attire matches their blue uniform. I ask her to run towards them and join then and pretend to be one of them students. The enemy won't realize and she will be save. I feel a sigh of relief because a way to save her has emerged. I figure out that I should continue running into the woods. The enemy soldiers are now a few meters behind me. My sister is really running fast. She finds a valley and jumps down to it. It's deep and steep. I figure out I can also jump. I had to make a quick decision. To follow her or continue into the woods. The woods is risky and the probability of making it alive with a swarm of enemies pursuing us closely is minimal. I decide to follow her. I jump down the valley successfully with my gun. I get hold of her hand and we start running as fast as we could. There are a big number of us running up the other side of the valley. The uphill is muddy is slippery. The enemy comes and stands at the edge of the valley but gets afraid of jumping down. I try to shot Back at them in order to scare them but I realize the distance is a little big and the bullets won't harm them. I think in my mind that they might find a way to get down the valley and pursue us. Amidst the hill and mud, I was running swift. I carry my sister in my arms and run with her uphill real quick. We get to the exit gate. It's narrow and therefore there's a long queue. We get in the queue. While a few people are ahead of us, I realize the enemy is right behind us. I grab my sister, get her to the gate quickly because she was kinda delaying and the exit gate magically makes us disappear. We meet ourselves in a new place. Safe and free. Although narrowly and against odds, We had succeeded to escape. What is the substance of my dream?
