I had the craziest dream (kinda long)

It's starting to fade but I wanted to get it out of my head before it completely disappeared.

I was working with some friends in a school or hospital. I think it was downtown Detroit, but now that I'm remembering it, the hospital kinda looked like Wyandotte. Anyway, we were near the hospital but I don't know if we were part of it cuz there was a building next to it that kinda looked like any pavilion you'd find in a park and next to that was a fenced off school that kinda looked like the Bacon Library.

We were hanging out near the doors watching cars come and go. The aisle-way between them was extremely narrow so we were mostly watching to make sure my friend's car didn't get hit (i remembered her name in the dream but can't now...she was someone I went to high school with tho I think)

All of the sudden a truck came racing thru and tore up the sides of all the cars in the process. It was an unmarked ambulance and the guys came tearing out of it and ran inside. We stood around to see what was happening (we also knew some people inside) and one of them came running back out and said "there's a bomb! run!"

So we ran to behind the building that was near the hospital. We had kids in tow so I'm assuming I was some kind of teacher. And I should state that the area we were in wasn't like Wyandotte at all...it was more like a rundown downtown Detroit inner city area.

I decided the building wasn't far enough if there was an explosion so I tried getting into the fenced off school but that wasn't happening. All of the sudden people were being hit by what looked like lightning at first glance but it wasn't lightning, it was more like a light blue laser. The sky got really really dark and there was a short of window high up that was cloud free and the people that got hit but weren't going up in flames were suddenly praying.

It was the rapture. At least that's what someone said. And God was weeding out the unworthy. Those that had a disbelief of 5.5 or higher (on what scale I have no idea) were immediately catching fire. Those that had a disbelief lower than 5.5, when they were zapped, turned all transparent in the same colour as the bolt of lightning and floated up to the sky where that window was.

A friend and I stayed together and she began praying and I think I did too. Alot of people that hadn't gotten struck yet were. Someone said that God had finally gotten rid of all the non-believers, which appeared true cuz no one was going up in flames anymore. I remember just praying that my friend would be part of the rapture cuz she was christian and I wasn't.

Suddenly we both got struck at the same time. We grabbed hands and began floating up to the window together. (which was hard cuz we weren't solid, but we kinda were. Very weird sensation) We kept reassuring each other that no matter what we would still be friends in the next world.

Suddently ( i know i keep using this word sorry but that's what it was) we were on the ground...very solid ground...in a place that looked almost identical to the rundown area we had just left. We appeared to be in a deserted part of town tho, so we got up, brushed ourselves off, and went for a peek around the corner. We were absolutely dumbfounded that this could be "heaven"

That's when we saw all the white people being rounded up like cattle to be shipped off to somewhere. All the minorities were crowding around them and spitting on them and laughing at them and saying things in their native languages. The friend I was with was white. And since I'm not exactly "not white" looking, a sense of self preservation kicked in and I let go of her hand and ran up to a group of people speaking spanish and screamed "yo soy mexicana" (i am mexican)! My friend looked dazed and confused but the group welcomed me into their fold without any questions.

Once my place was secure, I tried to help my friend sneak out of the city. Somehow we knew that there were white friendly places in the "country". As I was sneaking her around I saw a caravan of white people in cages in the middle of main street (think Eureka, but a dirt road) and in the last one was Judy from the Rouge Park Lounge. I screamed her name and reached for her but all she did was turn and look at me blankly and say "do I know you?" before they dragged her off.

Somehow I think my friend got away. And I was hanging out with some of "my people" as we were trying to figure out how to get a job or something. Apparently all latinas became dancers in clubs (not quite topless dancers, more like go-go dancers in the cages and stuff) and one girl was frantic cuz she couldn't dance. She was sure they would kick her out with all the white people. So me and a couple other girls tried to help her find her rhythm.

Suddenly I was standing on the sidewalk alone in my "work costume" (which was basically a leotard and a long flowing wrap around skirt). There was a japanese fellow about my age in front of me in a doorway that looked to be a restaurant. "sushi?" I said to him. He looked a little startled but nodded yes and led me inside. (apparently in this new world, which was obviously NOT heaven, ethnicities didn't stray from their own groups). We snuck past his parents who were in front of an altar to their ancestor and went down to the basement which turned out not to be a part of the restaurant but his own apartment. He had a little kitten and a puppy and we talked to each other in english, which was apparently forbidden in the world we lived in. You could only speak in your native tongue. Which is why he was shocked when I said sushi to him cuz it wasn't a spanish word (whether or not that is true i have no idea, but it was true in the dream)

Cut to about 5 years later and we were still meeting in his basement. And that's when I woke up.

I still don't understand it tho
