Moiraine

I am walking through what is my dream's representation of my home town, Dublin, with my good friend Hayden. We are approaching one end of the football field. There is an abnormal amount of police officers walking up and down the street; I count around 20 in just a few seconds. I am aware that Hayden is carrying a joint in his pocket, so I whisper in his ear that he should eat it if we encounter trouble. I am now also aware of my newly purchased combat knife hanging from my belt, and for some reason I take it out of its sheath and walk down the street with it plainly visible in my hand. I think "I'd better put this away, one of these cops is going to stop and question us," but none of the cops even glance at me. Odd. At this point we have walked the distance of the football field and are about to leave it behind, when we come across a group of the thuggish looking type. I am instantly aware that these grungy looking men are the type that want to start trouble. They make a threatening remark at us, but instead of walking away in fear I strut up to them, pulling my shirt up slightly to reveal the large combat knife at my belt. The size of my knife doesn't seem to bother them. One of the thugs (I will call him Baldy) laughs and pulls out a small pocket knife while walking towards me. I realize I am about to have to make my move, but I freeze up and my hand never goes for the knife. Luckily, right before Baldy gets to me a very young girl cop appears (I estimate age 18-20) and points her gun at him. I am a little startled at seeing this too-young cop, but quickly warn her to "keep it pointed at him!" She looks a little shaky, but keeps the gun steadily aimed at Baldy, and he backs off.


Missed dream signs:
---The combat knife spoken of is owned by me in real life, I recently purchased it for self defense and it is military grade. However, in my dream I was wearing it on my left side when in real life I always wear it on my right.
---My hometown is fairly accurately portrayed, but the 20 or so cops in such a small area should have set off the alarms. The town in real life only has 2 or 3 cops on duty at a time.
---The girl cop was around my age (19) and obviously far too young to be a real cop. During the dream something in my mind flickered in recognition of this fact, but the thought was quickly swept away by the current of realistic feeling action.
---None of the cops even glanced at me when I was waving around my huge knife, something I recognized as very strange within the dream.
