I had several different dreams last night. The details are very fuzzy. They feel related to me, but I'm not sure when exactly each morphed into the next.There was an earlier scene involving a supermarket and candy, but I don't remember anything except trying to hide from someone who wanted to hurt me.
I was standing in my front yard. A police car had crashed in our garage, but I knew it wasn't the police coming after us. My mom was in the back of the garage, and I was motioning her to come around the car. She did and was making her way up the steps into the house when the car backed up and came our way.
I was in an auditorium with my family to receive an award. I was uneasy, because I knew someone was looking for me. We split up into two aisles to find some seats. Everyone else sat down together, but my mom went up one more row before sitting down. I tried to convince her to sit by the rest, but she was stubborn. As I walked through the row to sit down, a man I knew acknowledge me and patted me on the back. His fingers got caught in my hair and pulled it as I continued walking away from him. I noticed another friend in the audience, a guy I knew from college. I was nervous to see him.
I was not myself, but a teenage boy. Someone was out there trying to kill me and the people I knew. I had found a friend unconscious. Not knowing what else to do, I laid her down in a bathtub and pulled the curtain. I started to head back outside, but someone took a shot at me. I ducked back inside and waited for him to come to me. He did, and I knocked him out. I decided to try going through the opposite doors, but I could see a group of several boys in grey hoodies running around. I ran back again through the first doors and around the building to a courtyard. I could see the boys were heading toward the gate. I raced them to the entrance. They started to come through before I got there, and I was fighting them off one by one. All the while I'm talking and trying to convince them in a light manner to let me live just a little bit longer. I wanted to stay with them and follow them to their leader. This man had sniped a man I knew in the back of his head, and I had seen the whole thing.
In every dream I was on edge and running for my life. The last felt like a video game.

You are running away, hiding, or trying to outwit your pursuer. Chase dreams may represent your way of coping with fears, stress or various situations in your waking life. Instead of confronting the situation, you are running away and avoiding it.�Ask yourself who is the one chasing you and you may gain some understanding and insight on the source of your fears and pressure.
The pursuer or attacker who is chasing you in your dream may also represent a part of yourself. Your own feelings of anger, jealousy, fear, and possibly love, can assume the appearance of threatening figure. You may be projecting these feelings onto the unknown chaser. Next time you have a chase dream, turn around and confront your pursuer. Ask them why they are chasing you.
I will try to be aware enough to ask next time. :)
