Michelle and I are getting ready for the prom. I'm going with one of my former homecoming dates from high school CK. I don't know who Michelle is going with but she is in our prom group. We're getting ready in this outdoor area that has a line of vanities for doing makeup and hair. It's attached to some boutique on a busy street (doing hair outside for an event seems like risky business in my opinion). A man comes up to me and demands that I hand over my passport. This seems like a threat I tell him that he can take whatever he wants but I need my passport to get into prom (dream me understands that I need to have some form of identification to enter the venue). He offers me $12K for it but again, I tell him that he can have whatever he wants but not my passport. He angrily storms off. I tell Michelle jokingly that I should have just given it to him for $12K because logically what can he do with it? He comes back with a gun. Michelle ducks down and Marie runs to us to prevent the bullet but he shoots me right at my forehead. I fall to the ground and all I can hear is a ringing in my ears. Everything goes black. I can't see anything but I can feel Marie wrapping her arms around me as she's screaming my name. She grabs a towel and covers my head. The pain is sharp, similar to how it feels to wrap cloth around an open wound or scrape (think that sticky feeling). I have no idea what I look like or how much blood I'm losing as I can't see anything. Then I woke up!
