[Dream] The Dystopian Society

I can't remember the exact starting point of the dream (as in all dreams, as nicely pointed out in Inception), but I was in a deserted place with deserted roads. I mention this because I knew what my purpose was there, despite not remembering when it started.

I was trying to get out of the deserted place, but I couldn't find a cab. I walked and walked, and came across an old, abandoned house. To my surprise, I saw 3 people stumble out, all covered with dirt from head to toe, their frames rugged and gaunt. One of them was my secondary school friend, B.

Right on cue, two taxis arrived. I was about to get into the back taxi with 2 of the other people, but decided to board the one with B. When I got in and the taxi drove off, I began asking him what happened, but the look in his eyes made me stop. 'I have gone through ... so much,' he croaked weakly.

I somehow understood this as a mystery higher organization had done this, and it was not my place to ask, nor did I really want to know what abuse he went through.

After driving for a while, I asked the cabbie: "So are you going to Potong Pasir (B's house) first or Boon Keng (mine)?"
He casually replied: "What makes you think we are going to your homes..."

My blood froze. I realized the taxi was not a place of refuge, and it was not taking me to safety. It was taking me to them. The organization. Whatever it was. I had to escape. I did not want to go through the abuse that B went through.

After observing traffic for a while, I found the opportune time and opened the door and dived out of the moving vehicle. I rolled to the side of the road, and began running. I ran for several minutes, and quickly flagged another cab that I saw.

As I got in, I began to say "Uncle, to -"
He cut me off with a grin: "to Boon Keng, -my address- right? I know..."

SHIT. He was part of this too! He knew exactly who I was, and where I had come from.

"You need to go another 2km to get out of the area we are in control of, boy", he laughed.

I resigned to my fate. If they had control over everything within a 2km radius, there was no way I was getting away if they wanted to catch me.

I was in a room with B, and some unknown individuals. This part of the dream got a bit fuzzy, as I think I was approaching the waking phase of my sleep cycle. From what I can remember, I wasn't tortured or anything. In fact, they explained to me how the organization functioned.

"From when you [he was referring to everyone in that world I think] are born, we will observe you. We will make circumstances occur for you. You think you got your job by your own merit? No, we arranged for it. Some people are meant to suffer -he glances over to B-, some, like you, are meant to succeed. Everything is decided by the organization. "

I recall being confused. Why was I earmarked for success? How did they decide what happened to who? How did they carry out their decisions? I had no idea, and would not receive any answers to these questions, as I woke up shortly after.
