Live Action Board Game

February 20, 2017:

The dream started off with me watching a crowd surrounding a guy who walked down a path marked with confetti paper, or even construction paper. He'd have to only walk on this path to eventually get around into a large tent and finish this game without running into too many traps. This game looked innocent and fun enough to me, so I decided to do it.

I went into the tent shortly after he finished the game, and it started for me. In the tent, there were mock coffins, which I couldn't help but imagine what if I couldn't fit in them, or if they weren't the correct size for me. I'm only 5'2", so it's pretty unlikely, in case you're wondering. Anyway, I got out of the somewhat dark place, and then took the tent down to reveal a bunch of people - who would help act as my traps - setting it up, moving around chairs and setting down my paper trail to walk on.

Anyway, they quickly finished and I started on my way. I think the first one I walked into was one that threw cake at me, so I had at least one person slam a cake into my body. This person would be the one to follow me most of the time. Either way, I continued on my way until I had to climb over some chairs. Two 'ninja' girls came out and 'attacked' me. I think all they really did was push me down and ruffle my hair up a bit.

I wasn't feeling frustrated or anything, but I did feel it was getting a bit harder to get up, so this time it took about three or two seconds to stand back up, But other than that, I didn't really find much difficulty in doing it. After I got back on my feet, I looked around and saw that they had already set up another row of chairs like this. I had since learned my lesson, so I looked around ot find an alternate route. Sure enough, about 20 feet away, there it was.

I walked towards it, and it went some distance away from what seemed to be the easy way. Eventually, coming down the narrow path, i saw that there was a wider area with maybe like five people stationed at it. Meanwhile, from the end of the place, where there was a crowd of maybe 10 people, they started to throw  red ball - a standard dodge ball, from my experience - over to the 5 kids in front of me. A few of them were either badly aimed or whatever, but some of them came my way and barely came close to hitting me.

When I got even closer to the five kids (all boys, by the way), they started to clearly aim at me. The first one was from the front, I ducked and it flew over my head. The second, from the back, and I leaned to the side, it zooming past me. The next one, again from the front, I just slightly leaned to the side and it missed me again. The last one for me to dodge came from the back again, which I ducked beneath again. The last one came from the one who had been following me the entire time, and he was pretty close to me at this time.

He threw it, and I instantly knew it was too close to dodge, so instead, I hit it away with my hand. He mumbled that it hit me and that I should be out (by the way, the kid was a classmate in real life in middle school. As you might figure, we didn't like each other.) I wasn't certain about the rules, and as the deflecting was purely just my natural reaction, I asked the teacher who hosted it.

He confirmed that it was alright - that it wasn't against the rules, and I continued on my way. At this point, I was pretty much face to face with the final group. They begun to throw the ball back and forth at me, and I think three times before I woke up, I was able to hit it back, slowly moving forward.

Then the dream ended.
