Where I save the youth group from a buffalo
I dreamed the youth group was going to South Dakota again in the van. PJ was really irritated because he kept driving into ditches (like DEEP ditches). So when it happened again, he climbed out and apparently something was wrong with the van and he couldn't fix it. He and some other adult leader (not sure who exactly it was) were kneeling a few feet from the van, so I went up to him and he was really really ticked because his shirt was covered with oil and he didn't have any shirt to change into. (Rather intelligent of him coming on a week-long trip without extra clothes. *Rolls eyes*) I told him I had a large-ish shirt that might fight him and he just swatted me away and stomped off to the next town, I think it was to get tools to fix the van.
So we were all sitting in the van (and, might I add, B'qi was there too) and someone screamed, "LOOK! A BUFFALO!" and sure enough, out running along the highway was a buffalo. The van was perched precariously right on the edge of a drop (not a very large one, but still), so I kept telling them not to make any noise or the buffalo would come over here and push us over. I knew that some of them would scream, but I kept hoping they'd listen to me and not scream. However, the buffalo got closer and closer and finally just put his head in the window. I was shocked and then remembered we didn't have any glass in that window for some reason.
Then the buffalo butted us with its head and we rolled over until the van was upside down. It didn't have a ceiling at this point, and so the teens were all standing on the ground with the van floor over their heads. They all started screaming, and I somehow got out and yelled at the buffalo to "go home." Then I pushed until I got the van upright again. It rolled over and took all the teens with it so that we were back in our normal stance.
