trapped in a steel building, held at gunpoint, and driving after an elephant?

[once88]

I always have the strangest dreams when I nap. During a two hour nap today, I had a very long, scattered, and somewhat troubling dream that I can remember only certain parts of.

It all started, I think, with a discussion in my dream dorm room. A boy that was interested in me, and with whom I went on a few dates was in my room looking at pictures on my wall. He was talking to me about our "relationship", and asking for thanks for building these really fancy shelves in the room. This didn't happen in real life. But they were there in the dream. He started peeling down this photo of me and my family on the wall. At first I expected it to be of me and him, but then I realized that it was my family. I remember feeling really stressed, and started staring at the shelves thinking about they needed to be rearranged, and then the scene changed and I was in a car at the steering wheel on the side of the road as if waiting for something. Then suddenly this elephant charges from the open field on the left of me, across the road, and onto the highway. I then recalled having heard stories of elephants escaping from zoos throughout the country, and I knew what had happened. Then I got really worried because I realized that my brother was where I had just been, which was in the building that me and that boy had been. He wasn't there in the previous scene. So, I don't know why I thought he was there then.

So I decided to follow the elephant in my car. I was driving really fast down the high way, and then for some reason ended up in a bar. I don't remember much, but I realized my bag was open and all my money was sticking out. I started to close it up, but then this man held me at gun point and made me give my money to him. Then he also told me not to say anything about something, and i think it was connected with the elephant escaping.

Next I remember being in this steel building without any windows. It was just steel with many levels and crawl spaces. My brother was there too and I forced him to go through this one crawl space, and all I remember is him falling and yelling for help. I panicked and for whatever reason jumped through too. I remember feeling really trapped, and I was screaming. I kept falling and walking into things. It was this intense feeling of suffocation and powerlessness.

I couldn't get back up to the crawl space, and I ended up in this room with this old scary woman who grabbed me, and threatened to hurt me if I didn't do as she asked. She was going to force me to marry her son. And I knew he was going to be some sort of monster, and I started screaming again, and struggling against her grip, but she won. I remember her son walking into the room, and feeling surprised that he wasn't as monstrous as I thought he would be.

Then the dream ended. It was a really strange dream. I don't think I can quite explain this steel building, but it was a horrible place, and I don't exactly remember why.
