The Gangster Academy

Within the dream I remember being in a playground like area, mixed with a construction site. There were numerous children around, milling around, playing and such. Suddenly, one of those large square cars (think an 80s Cadillac) drove into the playground and everyone hid for cover, with a thought manifesting itself in my mind 'the cars going to go down the length of this road then come back'. As long as I and the others were hidden for that period of time all would probably be okay. It was well as the car went down the short road, but I hid underneath the wheel well of an immense construction vehicle like a bulldozer or backhoe, zipping up my jacket over my head so I'd be more inconspicuous.

Very soon after I did this I heard a little girl's voice say something which I now forgot. All I knew was, the car was coming back and I was still very conspicuous. I decided we'd be found anyways so I unzipped my jacket to find one of the people in the car standing right there. Here I was discovered as a guy's voice said something I don't remember and the next thing I knew I was in the Cadillac-like car, in between the driver (an older man maybe in his 50s or early 60s with a weathered look) and the shotgun passenger, a male who looked to be in his early 20s with straight light brown hair. His name was either Mason or Sam, if memory serves right.

The driver drove us through some roads at night, and we pulled into an alleyway where the driver pulled out some knives and let me examine them. Two were standard but one of them had a wooden handle with metal dowels holding it together - a bit of a curved part towards the top gave it a mix betwixt a dagger and scythe. I held it and looked at him when he said 'careful son you don't try to pull that on me' and he laughed. I knew who was in control here. They'd taken me here for some purpose I could not fully ascertain, but, within the dream a thought manifested itself that I was to become like them, gangsters, and they were trying to get me into an academy of sorts. Thus the dream ended.
