I slept at 12am last night

I stared at the strange image before me.
I wasn’t thinking. I was never thinking during dreams. But this time I was. I didn’t really think over if I was in a dream or not, or even question if this was real. I was thinking of what to do.
Why were these guys stealing my uncle’s van?
I didn’t feel myself moving, but I was suddenly climbing in the van. I didn’t know why, but it was a pretty stupid move. I was thinking of trying to trick them or something. I pretended to be innocent, to be oblivious to their plight. The guy who wasn’t driving was coaxing me into being calm, trying to tell me that this is all okay, even though it wasn’t. I felt like they were trying to kidnap me. I felt the need to panic, to scream, to do something, but I couldn’t move.
He started driving. I felt terrified. I suddenly had no clear thoughts. I couldn’t think of trying to beat them up or escaping or screaming… I just thought of staying in the van.
Suddenly he made a U-turn and we were at a beach. They started to drive through the beach. Somehow the beach was familiar, but I didn’t ponder too much on it. Nothing made sense as people ran away from this rampaging van. The people were gone before they could be hit.
Finally I was able to speak. But I forgot the words as soon as I said them when the guy interrupted with “We’re going to hit them!“
For a second I stared at a family, through the window. They weren’t very detailed; I’m not even sure how big the family was. Curse my imagination. All I knew was they were staring wide-eyed at us, and they didn’t move an inch. I wanted to scream at them, to tell them to get away, but it was too late.
Instantly, I shut my eyes and covered them with my hands. I couldn’t bear to watch. I felt the van beneath me run over bumps. I felt like crying that I couldn’t save them. I felt so guilty. I tried to do something.
The van made another U-turn and suddenly I was staring at a crowd of my friends and family. I felt relieved, knowing I could get help. But then I realized something.
They’re going to run them over.
I couldn’t feel anything. All I knew was I wanted them out of the way.
So I screamed the names of everyone I could see. I screamed and screamed but they were oblivious. I stared in horror, knowing it was pointless to keep screaming, as they got closer and closer…
Blackness.
I look like a zombie

I mean, literally. While trying to put on earphones, I gave up and just went to a mirror. (Note to earphone-making companies: idiot-proof your earphones for me.) I saw my face and gasped. I’ve seen it before but it really stands out today. I was like a zombie. So… dry, lifeless, weak…
That reminds me: I had this dream a while ago. I was playing a video game, but no matter what I did, it was worthless. I played as this elephant in a tutu, and the elephant was so worthless I just gave up, and ended the game where the elephant was stuck in a forest. (Shadowglen Woods to be precise.)
But then this squad came out of nowhere, sliding on ropes, and said, “We’ve got to rescue that elephant!” Having no choice, I ran with the squad to the left, even though the elephant was on the right. Don’t ask how I knew that.
