i just had the most epic zombie dream of my life - i remember each and every detail exactly, having just woken up, and i'm blogging this down before i forget.


-----------------------------------------------
the cluster was having an outing to suntec city, and i saw the [BoB3] there as well.
everyone from the respective groups was present.


a public service announcement was made over the PA: seal all doors, windows and any other openings, and reinforce all windows (i have no idea how we did that).the public panicked, and so did the rest of us.
armed guards didn't let us out so we had no choice but to stay inside.


someone in the cluster pointed out that we could go to the second floor and look out the window to see what was going on - so we got up to the second floor and got a window open. [BoB3] followed.

we heard screams from the people trapped outside, and a massive horde of rotting, bleeding zombies came rushing down the street. people were torn apart but i looked away, and heard only their screams.
people inside suntec were crying and screaming. a particularly loud sob from someone in the cluster (i can't remember who it was) attracted the attention of one of the zombies, and the fella looked up.

he dashed to the wall and started climbing it rapidly. bryan chan then slammed the window shut just as the zombie reached. it started banging on the window and cracks started to form on the glass.
out of nowhere, gabriel soh came running up with a rifle fitted with a silencer and shot the zombie through the glass. "i borrowed it!" was the only explanation we got.

over the next few days, the situation in suntec became bleak. some people committed suicide, and depression was rife. food, on the other hand, was plentiful, but we ate sparsely (GASP! ian controlling his appetite!) to save food.

we waited for news on the radio/television for further updates, but none came. a prominent businessman spoke up and told the crowd that we should go out and search for survivors - there were murmurs of agreement.

it was daylight then, and he reasoned that the zombies were not likely to attack again during the day. nearly all the men in the group volunteered - the teenagers, children and women were left behind.

the men went out, fitted with guns they apparently found stashed in a store somewhere.

suddenly, the businessman sniggered and ordered his bodyguards to "DO IT!". the bodyguards sealed the entrances once again, and the men outside noticed it. they banged on the doors and began shouting.

once again, we watched from the second storey window, and saw as the zombies were attracted by the loud sounds, and the men were massacred.

the businessman and his bodyguards were beaten up, gagged and tied in a corner, left to die.

-----------------------------------------------------
the scene shifted to all the teenagers gathered for a meeting at night - bryan chan headed the discussion by saying that we should try to retrieve the guns and ammunition from the streets, and set up a defensive perimeter before dawn.
the fit teenagers would be the runners, and the younger ones and the fat ones were left to be the lookouts.

armed with walkie-talkies, they left the building. it was then i noticed the businessman was missing. i shouted into the walkie-talkie, but the transmission was jammed. the businessman's face appeared on the televisions, and he broadcasted something along the lines of "you will pay dearly for hurting me! all i wanted was survival, and i'll be the only one left!"

a HUGE (i'm talking 3 football fields) airship rose from nowhere, and the businessman laughed as he made his escape with his crew and bodyguards.

i was screaming all the way into the walkie-talkie, but i couldn't see anything due to the darkness of the night. all i heard was screaming, and then.... silence.

below, i saw the lone survivor of the group run in unscathed - sivanesan.

the scene shifted to a bright afternoon, when sivanesan was eating lunch in some restaurant. i sat down, and asked him to tell me how my friends died.

he told me the following:

  • gabriel soh grabbed a grenade and blew himself up along with a large group of zombies.
  • ben ng fought with a large stick and killed several before he was killed.
  • bryan chan died saving sivanesan, fighting off a zombie which attacked sivanesan and allowing sivanesan to run back unscathed.
  • andrew goh was torn in half after getting swarmed.
  • aaron chan rode his bike and crashed it into a large group of zombies before it exploded.
  • chong jiahao had a huge-ass sword with him and killed many zombies, before succumbing to his wounds and eventually killing himself.
  • lai yonghsheng was eaten.
i sat down and cried.

the scene shifted to the airship, where an infected mouse scampered across the deck, hissing and snarling. it was stomped on, and someone screamed "INFECTEDDDD! WHO'S RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS?!"

someone found out that the cook had been infected, and he was shot and thrown off the airship.

-----------------------------------------------------------
sometime that night, i was awoken by a small thumping on the doors of suntec. sebastian woke up too, and we went to investigate. i took a pistol fitted with a silencer with me, just in case.
i saw an old lady with a young boy, and she claimed she wanted the boy to be safe. we brought the boy in, and she turned around and left. we saw a giant wound in the back of her head, and she fell down dead.

the boy bit sebastian, and he turned out to be a zombie. i shot the boy, and after much hesitation, shot seb as well.

the scene shifted yet again: all the bodies retrieved were dumped in a storage area as the weeks went by - to honour those who sacrificed themselves.
there were more suicides.

suddenly, there was another broadcast on the television. apparently the businessman had gathered power - with experiments done on his self-contained airship, he had a serum that put zombies under his control - he had a massive zombie army.

there were plans by him to airlift all of them and dump them on singapore, where they would spread out and take over the neighbouring countries, and eventually the world.

soon as the news was out, more people commited suicide. there were only very few people left in suntec at this point.

i heard the roar of an engine, and zombies were dropped on suntec. they pounded on the doors and windows, and the doors and windows started to give way. i laughed and pressed a button, and the whole place blew up.
----------------------------------------------------------


i woke up with cold sweat, my arms tightly crossed.
this is the most epic dream i've had so far.

and yes, not a word is made up.
