I'm in some strange world that consist of huge buildings, looking a lot like very simple skyscrapers, except they were all interconnected.
I'm not even sure if there's a floor since I'm just floating, being able to fly around at will.
There is also something chasing me and I'm trying to get away from it.

The buildings around me get denser and more chaotic, some look like glitches in a computer game.
The creature chasing me seems to absorb buildings into its body, growing larger and more powerful.

Then there's a cut and I'm presumably inside one of those buildings.
I'm in a dark room with barely any lighting which looks somewhat like a large office.
It's very cluttered, though.
There's another similar room next to this one, separated by a glass wall and a door.
There's also a person with me who I seem to know, and that creature that chased me.
It seems like it managed to capture us.

It dares us to escape from this situation, and as soon as it said that, the room begins to get locked off.
There are some red lights blinking and the door connecting our current room with the neighboring room is about to close permanently.
Panicked, I quickly run through it, but the other person couldn't make it.

I suddenly realize I'm a cat and the other person an even smaller critter, I don't know what.
It's obvious that the creature is just playing with us, watching our futile efforts to escape for its amusement.

The other person tries to get the door to open again by messing with its circuitry, and I do my best to block the creature's view from what was going on without looking suspicious.

After a while, I start exploring the room and notice that there's a hallway in front of it, also separated by a glass wall and a door.
However, the wall is broken in one place and has a hole large enough for me to jump through.
So that's what I do.
I land in a bunch of glass disks lying on the floor, breaking them, but I'm unharmed.

Now being a human again, I take a glass shard with me and run through a door which leads to a staircase.
It is huge, having the shape of a pill with stairs going along the edge.
The center is empty so I can see all the floors coming before and after.
There's no end in any direction.
I know the creature will come after me soon and so I run upwards as fast as I can.

I made it about 5 floors when I hear a door burst open.
I quickly enter the room next to me, hoping that the creature hasn't seen me.

This floor was very large and open and brightly lit.
The dream starts to make no sense anymore and that's it.
