Cloud of Nanobites

Dream Narrations

Joel Akin

I kept falling alseep and waking up then falling asleep all to continue this dream. My family was sitting around a table trying to figure out how the world was going to end. Weather, earthquake, nuclear war etc. We went to bed. The next morning dozens of buses and cars drove by evacuating the city. Then just as quickly dozens of buses and cars drove by evacuating the city. Then just as quickly they stopped and towards the city we could see a strange cloud getting closer and closer. We got our family into our own bus and drove quickly away from the city. Whatever this cloud was it seemed intelligent. It could change shape at will and could infiltrate human bodies. Later I learned they were Nanobites, tiny robots that could

1. Mimic shapes they came in contact with

2. Reproduce

3. Eat Metal

They spelled the end of civilization because our society is based on metal. And they killed a lot of people with pace makers, metal implants etc. But some people were impervious such as those with ulcers. Turns out it is people with too much acid in their stomach.

Interpretation: For some reason this reminds me of the movie the Andromeda Strain.
