In this dream it's late in the afternoon or evening, the sun has gone down, but the sky is still light. It's warm and pleasant.
I find my self in a black van, 70's make, GM, kinda beat up. It's a bit rock-n-roll with hot rod rims and fat tires. Little body damage here and there and hasn't been washed or waxed in a while. There is no seat behind the driver and front passenger. So I'm standing and holding onto the seats while I watch where we are going.
The van is driving itself across town. I'm just watching and hanging on. One thing about the van- it's a pretty quick driver. No hesitation or slow anything, just sort of as efficient as a machine could drive you within operating safety. Another thing, if I stop paying attention to where we're going, the van starts to become less accurate at turns and a few times runs up onto lawns and curbs as we zoom around on residential and business occupied streets. There is nobody around in the entire dream. I am alone in this city.
After a while it becomes dark and I move about in the van looking up at some strange clouds in the sky through the back windows. The cloudsare near a fullish moon and the lighting effect was beautiful. It was then I noticed the large old wooden door in the back of the van. (I know, I'm not paying any attention now to where we're going, and the van is doing fine at this point, thank goodness) The door is a familiar sight to me. I know it's a portal.
If I go through it I'll probably pass to a basement in some old house somewhere like I do in so many dreams. It's mounted inside the van cargo area to the metal side, like I could just open it and pass out of the side of the van. The door was white with a crusty old lead paint, a chain, and a window. A big old heavy wooden front door.
I decide to not enter the portal, but complete the mission with the van. We eventually get to a small business sort of mini-mall like structure, really just a building on the corner with several tenants. I get out and go into an abandoned comic store. There are a few posters hanging to tell me this. It's all messy as if the business left behind a lot of stuff and it's been ransacked by someone. I go to the office to look for money or something.
It's here that I get a strongfeeling not to enter the office. The light is on and I stand outside in the dark blue carpeted hall. I know it as a spirit trap, however the spirit is not there. I quickly go in and survey the scattered remnants of the business office. Dark old ugly wood paneling. There is an open safe. Abig wooden desk with it's drawers hanging out. No chair. Pens, paperclips, etc. I don't see what I'm looking for. Someone already got everything of value. I back out quickly again, still wary of the trap I was just in, go out to the van and we ride away. It's morning now.
