So somewhere between my Mum coming in to wake me and my second alarm going, I fell back into sleep and had this dream.

Im in this field which I recognise as the one I cut through in the mornings to shorten my journeys, going in and out of wholes in the fences around it. The fences are gone in the dream and so is everything else around this field, the houses, the nursery, the shopping centre. I only know the field. Behind me theres now this mountain with a cave, but everything beyond this field is just open space. Now for some reason, and I have no idea why, Im herding pigs through this field. Then all of a sudden out of nowhere the grass in front starts to burn, theres smoke everywhere and Im trying to shepherd these pigs around it, without them turning into bacon. Luckily my dog turns up to help me do this. We end up going in a circle and the fire dies down, revealing a pond. The pigs go into the water immediately but for some reason I know I have to get them out, so I wade in and start to coax them back to the field. Just as Im about to get out again this net launches itself up from the bottom of the pond, traps me, and starts to drag me under the water. My dog, looks for a moment like he's going to help me. The walks off. Deep down I go, until I can't breathe. Out of nowhere - Beast from Beauty and the Beast appears and cuts me free and takes me to the surface. He takes me into the cave, and in the darkness he transforms into his human self - which looked strangely like Robert Downey Jnr, but I don't know - He was mad at me, like really, really mad. Saying I didn't Understand the danger I was in and then he left, turning back into the beast as he stepped back into the sun.

The Dream went on a little longer, something to do with Loki and one of his tricks, but I can't remember much or relate the two events
