My dreams for the night started off with my friend here at CMU telling me about this girl that lives on her floor. The girl moves to my friend's high school and takes her class president spot...
Later(new setting, new dream), a relative ( whom I call my mom, but is not my mother in reality ) and I are in danger!...so is a mother and her son. We find a van to run away in, and it has a back seat full of dalmations, about 4 or 5 of them laying down. We hide, but not very well. As we try to drive away, sirens come in the drive way. All of the sudden, my mother and the man that came with the sirens, a policeman, I guess, get into a fork and knife (they were knives that I used monday night in a friend's room) fight (knife and fight are two words that were in the concussion study test I took monday night, as well). STABBING!!! The policeman and my "mom" get stabbed but I don't. I stabbed the policeman a few times. Then, I wake up because I remember I have to write all this down, and I didn't want to forget anything. Basically, the policeman tries to kill me and my "mom", but she protects me and sacfrices herself for me.
Going back to sleep after I got a phone call at 9:20AM, I was back where the dalmations were. I slept in the car and a little girl was looking in from the outside; I open my eyes again later and she's in the passenger seat. She gets frightened because she doesn't notice me. I tell her I am not going to hurt her. We talk and I find out that her uncle killed my "mom". Then we see people trying to cross this bridge that is falling apart. Once person gets over successfully but 2 others try and fall into the water. Rescue divers go in after them. Then we go to the water, see a man floating, and ask if he's a diver or a victim. He doesn't answer. I wake up.

It's interesting, my friends and I were discussing dreams the other day, and one of us said that it is rare for a girl to have violent dreams, or dreams where she is actively fighting... (I assume you're a girl, based on the pen name)
This dream seems to center around the notions of safety and danger. Fear is prevalent throughout the whole thing, from trying to hide in the back of the van, to the bridge falling apart, to the fork and knife fight. There are also recurring images of safety, the dogs your "mother", and the policeman. Interesting that the policemen are the ones who are after you, traditional symbols of law and order turned into danger and murder. The vagueness of who the floating person is can be seen as lack of confidence in who is trying to help and who is suffering.
Based on what I've read, I would guess that some kind of shakeup has occurred recently in your life. Perhaps a betrayal, or some unfortunate reversal of fortune. You may need to turn to help in order to successfully get through the hardship, though you seem to think it will be a struggle, no matter what you do. You obviously don't yet know the outcome, but think that sacrifices from friends will help you through.
Jeez, I feel like an astrologer... I feel... dirty. Haha, hope this is somewhat enlightening.
