I was in like a basement, but the ground was dirt rather than concrete. There were a bunch of us in there, all nervous and scared and huddled together (by bunch of us I mean 100+ people). I noticed in the back of the basement there was an opening into what others told me was a tunnel dug by a girl. I snuck back to have a look at it & it was more than a tunnel! It was a fully-formed corridor that you could walk into and everything. I went in, all the while afraid that I would be caught & put back where I was.
I made it outside and walked at a very fast pace trying to get to Tony's house. On the way I saw a cat and noticed it was Tony's cat (not that he actually has one). For some reason I wouldn't pick it up, but I had to keep stopping to "psst, psst" at the cat to keep it's attention and keep it following me.
I made it to Tony's house. I walked up 2 steps onto a stone veranda with patio furniture. There were french doors that were open to the veranda and there was a TV hanging from the ceiling in there - like at a bar. I recall being sad that neither Clay nor Tony was there. I left the cat and started running back in the direction I had come from.
A lady stopped me and said "You can't go back there - there was an explosion." I kept trying to go & she grabbed me by the arm, repeating what she had said until it had sunk in. I turned and ran another way, saying to myself "I'm sure Tony is ok...I know he got out." then I woke up.
Make of it what you will, I sure don't know what it means, other than that I miss my bubby!
