I dreamt last night that I was a cop, and I was driving down the road and decided to stop at a way-side. I threw a fork into a room to prove to someone that I could break pottery with it.
I noticed there was a camera and a TV screen and I had just been caught on tape breaking stuff. I then noticed on the TV screen somebody else; it looked like there was a guy behind a potted tree in the left corner closest to me.
I called for him to come out from there and he did but it was actually a girl with a gun. She pointed the gun at me and threatened to kill me -- or something like that.
There were other people with me and eventually the girl gave the gun to one of my friends (don't asked my why). I asked my friend to give me the gun but she wouldn't so I had to fight it away from her.
Eventually I got it and pointed it at the criminal telling her to stay where she was but she didn't look too afraid of the gun and continued to walk around. I warned her that if she didn't quit moving I was going to shoot her but she didn't listen. I didn't want to kill her so I aimed at her shoulder and pulled the trigger.
She dropped to the ground and looked like she was going to die but just got back up... the gun wasn't loaded!
Thinking quickly I grabbed a broom handle and held her down with it until more cops showed up. When they came into the room I grabbed some hand cuffs and put them on her tight. It took me longer to do than most cops because I didn't have much experience -- being new to the force and all. She scoffed at how slow I was taking, to which I replied
"I'm new to this, cut me a break."
When I looked at the woman’s unloaded gun I then noticed it had orange on it, which is what toy companies are required to put on play guns so nobody mistakes them as real.
I realized then that I should have used
my to control the situation, but when I went to take the gun out of it's holster it wasn't there. I yelled
"Give me back my gun!" to my partner but he refused so I had to fight yet another person for a gun.
It seems nobody wanted me to have a gun in my dream, but I guess in this case it was good that my partner took my gun away or I might have shot a girl for threatening me with a toy gun.
It's weird that I'm having all these dreams involving guns though... I guess it's because I've mentioned my other dream involving guns which sparked this one. I usually don't remember my dreams in such detail either...
If my telling of the dream has fragmented sentences, weird sentence stops, poor punctuation, etc., it's because:
A) I'm telling a dream and dreams happen weirdly.
B) I was writing as the the dream came to me.
C) I don't feel like going over it and correcting.
D) Dreams are hard to write about.

Being that you can't actually die in a dream I realized that I was going to be alright and ended up capturing the guy.
I've dreamed that I died dozens of times.
You can't actually cease to exist in a dream. You may have a dream where you die and become a ghost, or die and go to heaven, etc., but you can't flat out die and actually be dead and not come back in some form.
