6. Dreams
I was riding in a car. The car stooped near this other vehicle from which a person came out and shot the trunk. It was clear in my dream that this was a robbery. Later, I saw myself as a prisoner on the back of a car shoving coin from a box. After all this, I saw my body flying away and I was trying to land on a hill but there was a lot of them and many of them were marked at the pick. I was afraid to land because some of them had traps.
