Short Stories with Tragic Endings

I am in a dark cave-like building with my brother. I am fighting him with
weapons from the PSX game, Ape Escape. We each have something like
five lives and I beat him the first time with the stun club but he gets me
down to one life. I then kill him again after he respawns so he now has
four. After he respawns I think, "damn, I should have used the time net,
he's going to kill me now." Sure enough, he kills me with his stun club.
Later, I am looking at a vending machine trying to figure out what to get.
The dream ends.
